<h4>Chapter 2670: One sh</h4>
<strong>Trantor: </strong>Nyoi-Bo Studio <strong>Editor: </strong>Nyoi-Bo Studio
Supreme Swordlord had originally been a member of the Taishang Domain. He was a legendary figure in the Divine Prefecture and an old monstrous existence.
Such a figure of legend normally would not have crossed paths with Ye Futian at all, and wouldn’t have had any confrontations with him. If the tomb of the gods had not appeared, they would not have encountered each other. However, now that the ancient continent had appeared, the cultivators of the various worlds all came here. Hence, Supreme Swordlord and Ye Futian had the chance to appear in the same location.
Supreme Swordlord had already been the first Sword Celestial in the Divine Prefecture centuries ago. Now, several centuriester, his power was already beyond theprehension of ordinary people. With a mere sentence, even Two Tribtion ne cultivators had obediently retreated. They did not dare to defy him.
Only Ye Futian did not retreat.
Although Ye Futian had destroyed an Ancient God n before, that was because the Will of the Great Emperor of Tianyan City had been eradicated by Great Emperor Ziwei. Even with the Will of the Great Emperor, an existence like Supreme Swordlord could destroy an Ancient God n single-handedly.
Figures at this level no longer cared about the things mere mortals cared about. They were already half a step ahead and had seen the view from the highest cultivation ne. They would not be bothered with mundane traditions and power. They only sought one goal and that was the highest ne.
They essentially did not pay heed to the grudges of the world. Normally, these figures would not be seen. The appearance of the tomb of the gods caused them to have hopes of taking a step to the next level. Hence, they emerged again in the world.
His title as Supreme Swordlord meant he stood at the very top.
He swept a nce at Ye Futian in the sky. He pointed his finger at the sky again and a unique swordsmanship immediately ripped apart the Tremoring Pulses bursting forth from Sky Tremor. It prated and tore them apart as it charged toward Ye Futian’s figure.
The imperial arm was still just a weapon in the end. Without the activation of the Great Emperor’s own will, Ye Futian’s cultivation was unable to unleash the true might of the imperial arm. His Way was still just his alone and he could only activate a sliver of will in the imperial arm.
As for Supreme Swordlord, he had already moved on to the next level. Ye Futian had killed the Lord of Tianyan City and Wang Xiao. However, before a demigod, things would not y out the same way they had before. No matter how powerful the cultivations of the Lord of Tianyan City and Wang Xiao had been, they had remained at the Two Tribtion ne and had not transcended. Hence, against Ye Futian wielding an imperial arm, they essentially were fated to be killed instantly and could not put up a fight.
Ye Futian sensed the prating power of the Sword Will. Even the power unleashed by Sky Tremor was unable topletely block it. His figure shed, and he disappeared from where he stood, appearing in a different location.
The Sword Will shot up to the high heavens and left behind astonishing streaks in the sky.
Supreme Swordlord shifted his gaze to look at Ye Futian, who had appeared in another location. Even he was impressed by Ye Futian’s swift movements. He moved without leaving a trace, as expected of Buddhist Celerity. No wonder it was listed as one of the Six Superpowers in Buddhist sects. It was miraculous.
Ye Futian was simrly sizing up Supreme Swordlord. Based on their brief exchange just now, Ye Futian had more or less figured out how terrifying this near-deity-level figure was. In the past, when he was fighting with Fang Ru, he had actually borrowed an external force. He used both the power of the Ziwei Segmentum and the Will of the Great Emperor in battle, yet he still could not defeat Fang Ru.
This time, he relied on the imperial arm to put up a fight with Supreme Swordlord. Ye Futian wondered who was stronger, Supreme Swordlord or Fang Ru.
“You appear as though you are only at the Renhuang ne, but yourbat ability far exceeds that of a Renhuang. Why is that?” Supreme Swordlord asked Ye Futian. He was rather curious. Ye Futian’s cultivation ne was at the peak of the Renhuang ne.
This was a fact known by all the cultivators. However, other people assumed that Ye Futian had long broken through the shackles of the ne and had hidden his actual cultivation ne with a special technique. After all, many cultivators who were his subordinates at Ziwei Imperial Pce had undergone tribtions. With Ye Futian’s talents, it was illogical for him to have remained stagnant at the Renhuang ne.
“I have my ways of hiding my cultivation ne,” Ye Futian replied. Of course, he would not speak the truth. He merely told the other party what all the other cultivators had spected about.
Supreme Swordlord felt strange. He actually could not see through Ye Futian’s trick of hiding his own cultivation?
“Even with the help of the imperial arm, you are no match for me. If you hadn’t dodged my attack just now, you wouldn’t even be able to take one sh from me,” Supreme Swordlordmented coldly. He appeared like a sword as he stood perfectly straight there. His cold tone contained an unparalleled confidence.
“Why don’t I make a bet with you, Senior?” suggested Ye Futian.
“A bet?” repeated Supreme Swordlord.
“I will not evade or dodge. I will receive your attack. If I can receive your sh, you will let me have this relic,” Ye Futian said.
“What if you cannot take my attack?” inquired Supreme Swordlord.
“If I fail, I will naturally perish from your attack. What else do I need to bet?” said Ye Futian as he looked at Supreme Swordlord.
“I have never made a bet with anyone in my entire life. However, since you suggested it, I will give you a chance. If you dare to evade this sh, your friends will not leave this ce alive,” said Supreme Swordlord.
Since Ye Futian himself offered the bet, he would oblige. He wanted to see how brave Ye Futian was. Would he dodge or not?
If Ye Futian dodged the sh with Celerity, he would have gone against his word, and Supreme Swordlord naturally would not hold back.
“All right,” said Ye Futian.
“You’d better be ready,” said Supreme Swordlord as he looked at Ye Futian in the sky above him. “In reality, even if you possess Celerity, it is still impossible for you to avoid facing me head-on. However, since you have some courage, I will entertain your request.”
His sleeve moved, and he extended a finger. The vast space immediately became a terrifying Sword Realm. Even the cultivators who had retreated far away could sense how terrifying this Sword Will was.
Supreme Swordlord extended his hand and the space became a world of the sword.
The crowd looked toward Supreme Swordlord. He stood there like a supreme sword god. This part of the sky was enveloped in Sword Will. The next moment, everyone felt a suffocating sensation. This sensation was as though the Sword Will had already enveloped the space before the sword was even drawn. There was anticipation as well as terror. It seemed that once the sword was drawn, everything would be annihted.
Ye Futian’s Natal Spirit was swaying inside his body. The will of the Great Path stored in his Life Spirit flowed all around his body before surging into a Sky Tremor. Immediately, a solemn will burst forth. The divine light emanated by Sky Tremor at this moment was extremely rming. The Tremoring Pulses were also far more powerful now. A portentous aura loomed over the space.
Supreme Swordlord raised his finger and pointed at the sky. A divine sword materialized in space and directly prated through the heavens and the earth. It was as though both space and time had melted away. Only this sword remained.
His title Supreme symbolized his vast epassment. His sword could annihte all existences in the heavens and the earth.
Ye Futian’s imperial arm struck down the exact moment when Supreme Swordlord raised his finger. Countless Tremoring Pulses swept out and an unparalleled divine light traversed across space, colliding with the divine sword.
For a brief moment, the entire world stopped. Silence overwhelmed the vast space. Then, a light of destruction erupted. All the other cultivators unleashed their strongest defense techniques. However, even so, many cultivators who had not undergone tribtions were severely injured. Some even perished on the spot. Many Tribtion-level cultivators were also injured.
Shocking Sword Will appeared all around the three divine swords, shielding them from the destruction.
The entire sky turned dim for a moment.
Everything between the two of them turned to ashes. When themotion died down, Ye Futian stood unscathed in the sky.
Supreme Swordlord stared at Ye Futian. He did not say anything. This space appeared exceptionally silent.
Not only did Ye Futian not dodge it, he received the attack head-on.
“Youths nowadays are impressive!” Supreme Swordlord eximed after keeping quiet for a moment. As he said this, he left the space with his sword. His silhouette soon became one with his sword.
Since he had lost, he would keep his word and give the relic to Ye Futian.
This scene caused the hearts of the surrounding cultivators to tremble. Supreme Swordlord was truly incredible. He had actually handed over a relic left behind by a Great Emperor like he said he would. He had admitted defeat because of a bet.
In reality, even if he had not admitted his defeat, what could Ye Futian have done about it?
As expected, such verve was not something they had anything topare to. Supreme Swordlord might believe that he could find other relics elsewhere.
Ye Futian put his imperial arm away and his figurended on the ground before the three divine swords. He looked toward Lord Chen and the others. The group walked over immediately.
In the distance, the other cultivators who were observing also came forward. Since Supreme Swordlord had left, they naturally also wanted toe forward toprehend and cultivate.
“Since the rest of you have already retreated, you need note back,” Ye Futian said as he turned around to take a look. Then, his arm made an arc and drew an illusory line in space. He said, “The rest of you, if you want to continue your meditation, you can only do so outside of this region.”
He was already giving them some respect by not immediately chasing them away and instead drawing out a region in which they could cultivate.
The various cultivators looked down and stopped in their tracks. No one dared to advance. Ye Futian was still the person who had made Supreme Swordlord leave in defeat. They naturally did not dare to defy him.
“Better start cultivating,” Ye Futian told the cultivators beside him. He too looked at the three divine swords. He wanted to see whether he couldprehend anything.
“This time, I will not participate,” said Gu Dongliu as he took the initiative and went to the side to cultivate. He had already obtained the teachings of a Great Emperor. Hence, he stepped down on his own ord and gave the opportunity to the others.
Ye Wuchen also wanted to step down. However, he heard Ye Futian say, “Wuchen, you cultivate swordsmanship. These three divine swords are somewhat unique. Why don’t you tryprehending them?”
“All right,” replied Ye Wuchen as he nodded his head and did not say anything more.
