It turned out that Ye Futian’s cultivation took five whole years.
Five years was long enough for many things to happen; yet, for top-level cultivators, it didn’t seem to be long enough. Once one’s cultivation reached a certain level, a retreat mayst for decades. An opportunity or even an epiphany might take years to fully integrate into one’s cultivation.
For example, on this ancient continent these days, many cultivators continued toprehend the ancient relics left behind by the great emperors.
The relics of the gods were enough to keep the cultivators of the world busy for many years.
Nheless, many people had broken through their realms on this ancient continent in the past five years. Even many had broken the shackles of Renhuang and survived the Divine Tribtion of the Great Path.
The reason for this incredible phenomenon, in addition to the qualities of the relics themselves, was also because of the nature of this world; this world was vastly different from the world they were from.
All signs indicated that the cultivation world would be ushering in another era of prosperity. No one knew if this meant that some great emperors would emerge during this time.
Ye Futian woke up from the retreat and his cultivation on this day. Traces of Great Path rules circted about his body as he opened his eyes. He could feel that his temperament seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.
“You have cultivated a long time this time around,” Hua Jieyu whispered to Ye Futian just as he was waking up.
“Mmm,” Ye Futian nodded. “It’s been a long time. How is everyone’s progress in cultivation?”
“They have made great progress. Taoist Monk Mu and Uncle Tie have moved into the Second Tribtion Realm. In addition, more people survived the first divine tribtion; you can see for yourself,” Hua Jieyu said with a smile.
“Uncle Tie has broken through his realm again!” Ye Futian was a little surprised. Before he knew him, Taoist Mu had already been a cultivator in the First Tribtion ne and had stayed in that realm for many years. Blind Tie was different. Ever since he reached the peak Renhuang Realm, his speed in cultivation was a bit astounding.
“Well, maybe it is because Uncle Tie’s cultivation was purer. In this relic, he has inherited the will of a great emperor, so he was elevating much faster,” Hua Jieyu offered.
Ye Futian nodded. Then he stood up and said, “Let’s go see them.”
The space here was incredibly vast, and many ces held some kind of Great Path relics. Many cultivators wereprehending the wills hidden within these relics and making breakthroughs in their cultivations; they were making rapid progress.
Taoist Monk Mu and Blind Tie were cultivating were not too far apart. When they saw Ye Futian and Hua Jieyuing over, they stopped cultivating. They looked at Ye Futian. Taoist Monk Mu bowed and called out, “Pce Lord! Mydy!”
By now, the respect that Taoist Monk Mu had for Ye Futian was genuine. Since bing part of the Ziwei Imperial Pce, he had witnessed the rapid expansion of Ziwei Imperial Pce. It was so fast that it was something he didn’t dare to imagine before.
More importantly, since he started following Ziwei Imperial Pce in his cultivation, he was now in the Second Tribtion ne. This was the realm he had dreamed about and hoped for, and it was finally a reality. In the future, he could start producing elixirs of the Second Tribtion grade.
“Congrattions,” Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu both said with a smile. They nodded to Taoist Monk Mu and Blind Tie, who wereing over. As he looked at the two of them, Ye Futian smiled. “The Lords of the Armoring Pce and the Alchemy Pce of Ziwei had both made a breakthrough in realm. This is definitely great and weed news.”
In the future, the alchemical and armoring abilities of Ziwei Imperial Pce would increase immensely.
“In the future, there is no need for the Pce Lord to toil over alchemy. Give me whatever I can help produce, and I can take the burden off your shoulders,” said Taoist Monk Mu. He wanted to take some of the duties off of Ye Futian, and producing these elixirs in ordance with Ye Futian’s specifications would be practice for him to improve his alchemy.
“Well, this has always been my dream! That in the future, I don’t need to worry about Ziwei Imperial Pce,” Ye Futian smiled and replied. His biggest dream was that he would no longer need to worry about anything.
“Uncle Tie, I heard from Jieyu that you inherited a trace of the will from a great emperor; what is it?” Ye Futian asked.
Blind Tie’s mind moved slightly, and traces of the Great Path divine light began to flow upon him. On his forehead, an extremely oppressive rune appeared. At this moment, Blind Tie was like a god from heaven, and his body was full of iparable power.
“How overwhelming.” Ye Futian was overjoyed when he saw Blind Tie at this moment. He continued, “It is power-elemental, which is perfect, and itplements Uncle Tie wonderfully.”
“Mmm,” Blind Tie man nodded to Ye Futian. “But I heard that everyone in the outside world is improving continuously as well; many of them have made a breakthrough in their realms. I’m afraid that my cultivation level is still not enough.”
What he meant by not enough was clearly rtive.
Ziwei Imperial Pce of today was not what it was in the past; it was now standing at an even higher ne. Like other imperial-level forces, they controlled one of the relics left behind by the Eight Legions.
Ye Futian smiled, and then with a thought, the imperial arm, the Sky Tremoring, suddenly appeared in his hands. He lifted the imperial arms with both hands and offered it to Blind Tie. “Uncle Tie, you have also cultivated the Divine Hammer of the Protector, as well as the Divine Technique of the Sky Tremoring Hammer. This imperial arm will also suit you. From now on, it is yours.”
Although Blind Tie could not see it, he could sense everything. His body trembled slightly, and it was obvious from his expression that he was moved. However, he tly refused, “No, this is your imperial arm.”
He did not want to take it. This was an imperial arm that Ye Futian could use to unleash the most powerful attacks, which would be much more robust in Ye Futian’s hands than his.
Next to them, Taoist Monk Mu was trembling in his heart as well. Ye Futian wanted to gift an imperial arm to Blind Tie. This kind of generosity...
That was an imperial arm that belonged to Ye Futian, one that he had taken from the Wang n of Tianyan City. Now, he was going to give it to Blind Tie.
“Uncle Tie, the imperial arms would be no less powerful in your hands than in mine. The effect will beparable. Now that I have obtained some other divine item, the power I derive from it will not be weaker than that of the imperial arms. This imperial arm can no longer give me more power, so that is why I’m giving it to you.” Ye Futian continued, “Don’t think this is a gift to you alone; I am expecting Uncle Tie to protect me.”
Blind Tie felt extreme turmoil inside. Ever since Ye Futian stepped into the vige, he was the one who had been leading him forward. He owed Ye Futian for everything he had today.
“Later, when Tie Tou reached a higher realm, Uncle Tie can leave the imperial arms to him,” Ye Futian said when he saw that Blind Tie was still hesitating. Blind Tie faced Ye Futian and thought that Tie Tou was Ye Futian’s disciple. For Tie Tou to be the ultimate recipient of the imperial arms sounded more reasonable and eptable to him.
When Blind Tie heard the suggestion that the imperial arm may be given to someone else,ter on, he found the notion much more eptable in that context.
“Alright.” After hesitating for a while longer, Blind Tie solemnly nodded his head. Then he reached out and took the Sky Tremoring. His heart was full of all kinds of emotions.
Both of them, father and son, owed Ye Futian so much. To them, Ye Futian had given them a second chance.
Taoist Monk Mu sighed when watching the scene ying out in front of him. He also desired to have an imperial arm of his own, but there was nothing more to give since Ye Futian no longer had one. Furthermore, many others were waiting at Ziwei Imperial Pce. Because these imperial arms were most suitable for Blind Tie, Ye Futian made a gift of it to him.
“Boss.” At this moment, brilliant golden lightning sailed across the void. The ck feathers on the Little Condor’s body were covered by a golden light, gilding him in radiance. He had also survived the Divine Tribtion of the Great Path, and his aura was astonishing. As an ordinary demonic beast, he had nowpleted his transformation.
Also with him was Jun and his party. Jun’s original form was a golden-winged Roc. They were following the Little Condor inprehending the divine runes inside the body of the Karura and had made significant progress.
“I heard rumors on the outside that the Divine Prefecture is going to war with the Heaven Realm. Do you want to go out and take a look around?” the Little Condor said with some excitement. He had been cultivating in a location closer to the outside, monitoring the movements of the outside world. He would go out for a stroll from time to time, so he knew quite a bit of news from the outside world.
A spark shed through Ye Futian’s eyes. The Divine Prefecture and the Heaven Realm were not necessarily at war yet. It was just that the Heaven Realm discovered and upied a significant territory, the site that once belonged to the Old Heaven Court. For many years, cultivators from all the worlds had beenprehending and cultivating among the relics they had discovered.
But now, five years had passed. Perhaps they were no longer satisfied with the territories they had discovered.
At the moment, the strength of the Heaven Realm may be the weakest of all seven imperial-level forces, but they upied the Old Heaven Court ruins. Therefore, it seemed quite reasonable for them to move against Heaven Realm. However, if one was to really consider it, the Heaven Realm had an inherent rtionship with the Old Heaven Court, more than anyone else.
ording to legends, the name of the Heaven Realm was derived from the Deva. And now, a Heaven Court also existed in the Heaven Realm.
However, this would not prevent the other major forces from coveting the Old Heaven Court.
It seemed that now, the Divine Prefecture finally couldn’t hold back any longer and was ready to make a move against the Heaven Realm.
“Let’s go take a look,” Ye Futian proposed. He was curious about the Heaven Realm, and equally curious about the mysterious heir of the Heaven Realm, which far exceeded his curiosity about the Old Heaven Court.
He had a feeling that the Heaven Realm had long been a very influential force in the past, one that even influenced the structure of the world as they knew it. However, something must have happened that led to its ultimate decline.
“I am also interested in going over there,” the Supreme Swordlord piped up as he walked over. He was rather curious about the confrontation between the Divine Prefecture and the Heaven Realm.
“Those who want to go may travel with me, and those who don’t want to go should continue to cultivate here,” Ye Futianmanded. There were many who wanted to join him as they began gathering around him. Ye Futian led these people and proceeded to head out.
The group was traveling fast as they traversed through the void. Among the relics on the outside world, there were cultivators everywhere; it was no longer how it was five years ago. There were also far fewer battles taking ce, so the ce was considerably peaceful. However, there was a serious battle looming, one that was about to take ce at the old site of the Heaven Court.
The Divine Prefecture and the Heaven Realm.
“How much does the elder know about the Heaven Realm?” Ye Futian asked the Supreme Swordlord.. The Supreme Swordlord was an elder who had cultivated for many years, and his cultivation was powerful; he should have some ideas about what has transpired many years ago.
