<h4>Chapter 2604: Seeking an Audience with the Devil Emperor</h4>
Ye Futian was somewhat surprised at the respect the cultivators of the Devil World showed the Devil Emperor. In his imagination, the Devil Emperor suppressed the Devil World with his unparalleled domineering ability. Here, where the strongest was king, the demonic cultivators should be terrified of the Devil Emperor.
However, when he looked at the demonic cultivators present, they showed the Devil Emperor admiration and respect that stemmed from their very cores.
“It is not that I wish to be a wet nket. The Divine Prefecture is vast and endless and has countless top cultivators. If the members of the Devil World act careless and underestimate their opponent, we will only stand to lose out,” Ye Futian said indifferently. “Leaving aside the other forces, the disciples of Donghuang the Great are all extraordinary people with exceptional talent. I have heard that Donghuang the Great’s only daughter, Donghuang Diyuan, is also a proud daughter of heaven and is peerless among her generation. It will most likely be difficult to find someone in the Devil World who can contend with her.”
“All the direct disciples of the Devil Emperor have peerless demonic might. As for Donghuang Diyuan, the Devil World has imed that they want to capture her and bring her to the Devil Imperial Pce,” a demonic cultivator said indifferently. “As for peerless figures…”
Ye Futian’s expression twitched slightly. He continued testing them, saying, “There is one person whom I feel is missing out.”
When he said this, the others fell silent. They clearly knew who Ye Futian was referring to.
One person stood up and walked to the edge of the Demon Tower. He looked towards the Devil Imperial Pce and said, “He will figure it out.”
“How is he now?” asked Ye Futian. This was what he truly wanted to know.
“He is imprisoned beneath the Devil Abyss on the Demon ying tform,” said a voice. Ye Futian turned to look toward the stairs of the Demon Tower. A silhouette approached him. It was an elder who appeared to be in his fifties. His messy hair ran down over his loose, long robe. He seemed very unconcerned with his appearance. Ye Futian could not sense the aura of a cultivator from him.
However, the more Ye Futian looked, the more he felt that this elder was extraordinary.
Ye Futian could also do the same. If he wanted to hide his aura, others would be unable to detect it.
The elder walked up to Ye Futian’s table. He walked up to the seat across from Ye Futian and then immediately sat down, not seeking Ye Futian’s permission to do so.
From downstairs, the server in the Demon Tower brought up a bowl of noodles and ced it in front of the elder.
The elder began eating on his own, seemingly out of ce with everything here.
Ye Futian observed the elder who was eating the noodles. Thetter always had his head down, and his movements were neither fast nor slow. The noodles seemed exceptionally tasty, and he appeared like an ordinary person enjoying them very much.
After a short while, the elder finished up the noodles. Only then did he look up at Ye Futian, who was sitting across from him, and said, “Do you know about the Devil Abyss and the Demon ying tform?”
Ye Futian stared at the elder. He was uncertain about the background of the other party. Why had this elder immediately sat across from him? Could it be that he could tell that Ye Futian was not a cultivator of the Devil World?
“Elder, please shed some light on the matter,” said Ye Futian.
The surrounding people revealed strange looks as they stared at Ye Futian. There was actually someone who did not know about the Devil Abyss and the Demon ying tform.
“All of you, tell him about them,” said the elder. He was clearly talking to the others up here.
Someone said, “Legend tells that in the ancient world, the Devil Abyss was the second cruelest prison after the Heavenly Path. The copse of the Heavenly Path formed the Devil World. However, the Devil Abyss still spanned above thends of the Devil World. It is always creating destructive energy, even causing destructive catastrophes to descend. The cultivators of the Devil World have always been living under the harsh conditions of the Devil Abyss.”
Someone to the side added, “After the Devil Emperor unified the Devil World, he ced the Devil Imperial Pce at a spot closest to the storm of the Devil Abyss, pacifying it. With his own power, he withstood the various demonic catastrophes and protected thends of the Devil World, allowing the cultivators here to be spared from disaster. The Devil Emperor also studied demonic methods, created many incredible demonic techniques, and passed them on to the members of the Devil World to cultivate…”
“You’ve gone off-topic,” said the elder indifferently. The person speaking seemed to have gone off the rails and was reciting the achievements of the Devil Emperor.
“The Demon ying tform is beneath the Devil Abyss,” said the elder as he looked at Ye Futian. “The Devil Abyss sends down demonic catastrophes, whichnd on the Demon ying tform. The cultivators who are imprisoned on the Demon ying tform will face demonic catastrophes until they die.”
“No demonic cultivator imprisoned on the Demon ying tform has ever made it out alive. However, not just anyone is qualified to be on the Demon ying tform. Only those who havemitted severe crimes end up there. Thest time the Demon ying tform was opened was more than 400 years ago,” someone added.
Ye Futian’s expression turned somewhat pale.
Yu Sheng was imprisoned on the Demon ying tform beneath the Devil Abyss. He would face endless demonic catastrophes until he died.
“Although he is imprisoned there, as long as he yields, he will be released. However, he would rather betray the Devil World than yield. In your opinion, is he doing the right thing?” the elder asked as he looked at Ye Futian.
“Why did he not yield?” asked Ye Futian.
“He received an order to invade the Original Realm. He has a brother there. For his brother, he has forsaken his own identity,” said the elder.
“To his brother, he is naturally not wrong for standing for his brother and valuing their friendship. From the perspective of the Devil World, he disobeyed themand of the Devil Emperor, so he is naturally at fault,” replied Ye Futian.
“He cultivated in the Devil Imperial Pce and will inherit the Devil World in the future and rule over thesends. He shoulders a heavy mission. For the sake of his brother, should he give up his duty to the world? Is it right for him toy down his life?” the elder continued asking as he stared at Ye Futian.
“He is at fault,” answered Ye Futian as he locked eyes with the elder.
“What choice do you think he should have made?” the elder asked as he looked Ye Futian in the eye.
“He should have invaded the Original Realm,” replied Ye Futian.
The elder stared at Ye Futian. After a brief moment of silence, he stood up and said, “Everyone knew what choice he should have made. Why didn’t he?”
As he mumbled, he turned around and walked down the stairs, disappearing from Ye Futian’s sight.
Ye Futian stared at the silhouette of the elder disappearing. Then, he gazed into the distance where the Devil Imperial Pce was.
Everyone knew what to choose. Why did Yu Sheng not know?
Yu Sheng was not ignorant. It was just that he prioritized his brotherhood with Ye Futian.
Even if Yu Sheng had to turn his back against the whole world, he would still not betray Ye Futian.
With a sh, Ye Futian disappeared from his original spot. The cultivators who were in the Demon Tower revealed shocked expressions when they saw the disappearing figure. Their wills swept out and scanned the surroundings, but they could no longer track Ye Futian’s whereabouts.
“He is so fast,” someonemented. “Who is this person? His cultivation is unfathomable.”
“He actually did not know about the Devil Abyss and the Demon ying tform,” someone said.
“Who was the elder? His background must be extraordinary. Although there was no aura emanating from him, I actually felt a formless pressure when he spoke,” someone said. They all revealed pondering looks and strange expressions.
These two figures were both somewhat strange. The crowd could not get a good read on them.
What was the meaning behind their conversation?
They could not understand. It sounded like rambling but also seemed to have a deeper, hidden meaning.
Did the two of them know each other?
…
Very few people visited the Devil Imperial Pce. A terrifying might pressured down on the space surrounding the pce. One could sense the terror of the domineering might even when they stood outside of the pce.
The cultivators of the Devil World only dared to observe and worship the pce from a distance.
However, right now, a figure appeared outside of the Devil Imperial Pce.
Ye Futian stood quietly as he gazed at the towering Demon God Pce. When he looked at the pce from a distance, he thought it was one with the ground. However, now that he was already at the base, he realized that the pce was still very high up and far away from him. He had to make his way vertically up until he reached the heavens before he could arrive at the Demon God Pce.
Even though he was standing at the base of the Devil Imperial Pce, he could already sense a formless might. He could not imagine how terrifying the pressure would be as he ascended to the top.
The cultivators of the Devil Imperial Pce had to withstand this might all the time.
After the Devil Emperor unified the Devil World, he single-handedly suppressed the Devil Abyss. Then, he controlled the entire Devil World and developed all thends.
A troop of Devil Generals appeared in front of the Heaven’s Gate of the Devil Imperial Pce. They stood on both sides of the gates, protecting the pce from any intruders. They looked down on Ye Futian with cold expressions. They exerted terrifying auras directly on Ye Futian.
Ye Futian raised his head. His gaze seemed to prate the vast space. He loudly dered, “Ye Futian from the Original Realm seeks an audience with the Devil Emperor!”
“Ye Futian from the Original Realm seeks an audience with the Devil Emperor!”
His voice reverberated up into the sky. It immediately pierced through the heavens and could be heard throughout the pce.
In the distance, many figures looked over towards his direction. They were extremely astonished. Someone had actuallye to the Devil Imperial Pce seeking an audience with the Devil Emperor!
In the Devil Imperial Pce, various cultivators simrly appeared and looked down at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian’s name was known to the members of the Devil Imperial Pce. Due to his existence, Yu Sheng had refused to invade the Original Realm.
Ye Futian had actuallye to the Devil Imperial Pce in the Devil World, seeking an audience with the Devil Emperor.
This person actually had the gall to do so.
There was no response from the Devil Imperial Pce. The Devil Emperor would not quickly respond to this.
Below the Devil Imperial Pce, it was as quiet as a grave. Ye Futian stood alone down below, appearing very lonely.
Before him was the Devil Imperial Pce of the Devil World. It was one of the most terrifying ces in the world. After the Devil Emperor unified the Devil World, Ye Futian was the first person from the outside world who came here and dered that he wanted to seek an audience with the Devil Emperor.
“Ye Futian from the Original Realm seeks an audience with the Devil Emperor!” Ye Futian shouted once again when he saw that nobody from the Devil Imperial Pce gave him any response.
His voice reverberated throughout the heavens and echoed in space. The echo of his voice reached even the sky.
In the Devil Imperial Pce, a demonic cultivator with disheveled hair stood on the Demon ying tform, which was right underneath the Devil Abyss. His body was locked down by the Heavenly Demon sp. His clothes were in tatters, and he was covered in wounds.
However, when he heard the voice from down below, his body shook violently. His jet-ck eyes beneath his disheveled head of hair suddenly opened, revealing an astonishing demonic light!
