The Legend of Futian Chapter 2655 - Earth Shattering

Chapter 2655: Earth Shattering

Ye Futian did not seek revenge on the other Ancient God Clans for the time being. It was not that they were incapable of annihilating these clans. But now was a time like none other. Ziwei had just lost its protection. Sure he could go to the others’ territories to do whatever he wanted, but they could do the same with the Ziwei Segmentum.
If it were only the Ziwei Imperial Palace, they retaliated against, that would not have been a problem. But if the six Ancient God Clans decided to attack the Ziwei Segmentum, he would not be able to defend it.
Therefore, he chose not to make a move for the time being but go into retreat to produce more elixirs and cultivate.
Today, Ziwei Imperial Palace had a better cultivation environment than any of the Ancient God Clans. Although the will of Ziwei was no more, several imperial stars remained. In addition, there were other Great Emperors upon the territories they were occupying, with high-level elixirs and various cultivation methods that they had obtained. The cultivation methods they had gotten from Taichu Holy Land, the Shen Clan, and Tianyan City were extremely outstanding in cultivation.
With time, the cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace continued to grow in strength. Among them, several others continued to experience the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. Fang Cun’s father, Fang Huan, had only experienced the tribulation after Fang Cun had done it first. He was once a marvelous existence himself from Four Corner Village, a natural talent with the natural body of the Great Path.
After Fang Huan, Duo Yu, and Tie Tou both crossed the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. Four Corner Village became the place from which the most cultivators had survived the divine tribulations. This had something to do with the characteristics of the village itself. In the past, Four Corner Village, which wanted nothing to do with the world, had given birth to some cultivators who were born with the natural body of the Great Path. With instructions from the teacher and the ideal cultivation conditions provided by the Ziwei Imperial Palace, they could pass through the Divine Tribulation of Great Path one after another.
Although there were some inherent dangers in the process of the divine tribulation, when these cultivators went through it, they were actually in much stronger condition than Emperor Xi back then. Furthermore, they had powerful weapons, such as the divine arms, so the divine tribulations could not have harmed any of them.
In addition, Ye Futian’s friends and brothers in the land of the Nine Realms had also stepped onto the peak of Renhuang. The senior brother, Sword Saint, his good friends and brothers like Ye Wuchen, Dou Zhao, Long Chen, disciple Xiao Muyu, and even Feixue had advanced very quickly. After Ye Futian passed on the cultivation method of the Shen Clan to Feixue, she improved even more. After all, the blood of the Shen Clan flowed through her body. The only difference was that she was from the branch of the Shen Clan in the Original Realm.
But inside Feixue’s body, there was something extraordinary.
Ye Futian’s demonic beast companion Little Condor and Zi Feng were in love with each other. Although the poor Little Condor had learned all of Ye Futian’s abilities, he still couldn’t beat Zi Feng in a fight. This was all determined by their natural given talent.
Lord Taixuan and the others who also cultivated in the method of the Taichu reshaped the path of their cultivations, which was then supplemented by elixirs. Now they had also made breakthroughs in their progress.
The strength of Ziwei Imperial Palace was constantly multiplying.
However, the number of cultivators in the Second Tribulation Plane had not increased. After all, this realm was more challenging and would take longer. There was no way of telling who would step into that realm first.
In Ziwei Imperial Palace, Xi Chiyao led a few men and found Ye Futian. She gave Ye Futian a storage ring, and Ye Futian smiled when he checked it, saying, “Thank you very much.”
“It’s not for nothing; you don’t need to demur,” Xi Chiyao said without a care. Xi Chiyao, who was already in the Tribulation Plane, had an extraordinary temperament. She was noble and proud. It was as if she had descended from an empress.
Ye Futian smiled. Over the years, his relationship with West Imperial Palace had been working very well. West Imperial Palace collected precious alchemical materials for him from various places in the Divine Prefecture, and he returned the favor by giving them the elixirs he produced. They each had proven their value to the other, so their relationship had been going strong.
Xi Chiyao herself spent most of her time cultivating inside Ziwei Imperial Palace.
Naturally, Ye Futian understood that this was a win-win situation. Some of the elixirs he gave to West Imperial Palace were top-notch, including elixirs in the Second Tribulation Plane. Although Ye Futian was still at the realm of peak Renhuang, his status was not the same as any other. He was a Renhuang who had survived two divine tribulations, and the sub-divine elixirs that he produced were incredibly pure. However, he didn’t understand the reason behind this strange phenomenon. He figured it must have something to do with his Life Spirit, which was aligned with the most primitive path.
Therefore, the elixirs that he produced were very effective.
Over the years, of all the Ancient God Clans in the Divine Prefecture, aside from Tianyan City, the rest of the Ancient God Clans had been getting weaker all along. Only the West Imperial Palace had been secretly expanding its power. He had provided several batches of elixirs to them, but the West Imperial Palace had never revealed anything on the outside, concentrating on strengthening themselves in secret.
Although Ye Futian had never asked, he knew that West Imperial Palace must have made significant progress by now.
“Ziwei Imperial Palace is now adding armoring to alchemy. In the future, you will probably not just be the strongest principality in alchemy but also the premier force in armoring. If you are interested, we can be partners in armoring. West Imperial Palace can provide you with armoring materials, and you can provide us divine arms,” Xi Chiyao proposed with a smile.
Ye Futian smiled and looked at her. “The armoring level of the Armoring Palace is still quite limited, and Uncle Tie has not yet reached the realm he needs to be at. The resources seized from Tianyan City are enough for us for many years to come. Even if the West Imperial Palace provides us with materials, we will not use them right now. If the needs arise in the future, I will ask you.”
“It’s a pity, then. We want to deepen our partnership with Ziwei Imperial Palace, but Palace Lord Ye has refused us mercilessly,” Xi Chiyao joked.
Ye Futian smiled and shook his head. “Ziwei Imperial Palace and West Imperial Palace have always been very friendly. Why would Goddess Chiyao think it needs more?”
“Of course. More the better.” Xi Chiyao’s beautiful eyes were now directed at Ye Futian. “If the old man can have his way, he would rather unite Ziwei Imperial Palace and West Imperial Palace in marriage.”
Those around Xi Chiyao were stunned when they heard these words. What did she mean by that?
If Ziwei Imperial Palace were to join West Imperial Palace in marriage, who else could it be but the two of them?
Ye Futian was stunned as well. He didn’t know quite how to continue the conversation for a while. Xi Chiyao smiled and proceeded, “Of course, I thought not; that would make it too easy for you.”
The cultivators behind Xi Chiyao looked at each other, and an old man whispered, “If the goddess disagrees, why bother telling others?”
However, he immediately lowered his head and kept quiet after he said it. Indeed, his remark stunned Xi Chiyao momentarily. She slowly turned around and focused her attention on the old man who spoke. Her face was a little red.
“You talk too much,” Xi Chiyao said with temper in her voice. As the goddess, she still needed to keep her dignity.
“I am sorry I spoke too fast!” The old man explained, “What I meant was that if the goddess doesn’t agree with the idea, there is no need to say it out loud.”
“…” Xi Chiyao stared at him. She could almost shoot fireballs from her eyes. Was this old b*stard deliberately trying to annoy her?
If it were not because he was an elder, Xi Chiyao would have already stabbed the old man with her sword.
“An alliance through marriage is not impossible,” Ye Futian piped up. Xi Chiyao, stunned by this unexpected response, turned around and looked at Ye Futian intently with those beautiful eyes of hers. Ye Futian smiled and continued, “Now, there are many excellent young men at Ziwei Imperial Palace. My disciples, such as Fang Cun, Duo Yu, and Tie Tou, have all survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. If there is someone that Goddess Chiyao or other outstanding ladies from the West Imperial Palace are interested in, I don’t oppose them getting to know each other better.”
Xi Chiyao was surprised as she stared at Ye Futian for a moment longer, then turned around to leave.
Several people behind her also looked at Ye Futian with resentment.
“Stupid donkey.” An old man couldn’t hold himself back, “Either he was dumb, or he was rude.”
Ye Futian watched them leave and had a look of innocuous confusion on his face. Did he say something wrong?
“Master.” At this moment, a few people came running over this way, and it was his four little disciples.
Of course, Fang Cun and the others were no longer “little” anymore. Out of the four junior protectors of Ziwei Imperial Palace, three had already survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. They were even stronger than the four original great protectors.
“You are back,” Ye Futian commented. After Duo Yu and Tie Tou had both survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, Ye Futian urged them to return to the Village to visit the teacher and give him the news themselves as a sign of respect. The four agreed because the teacher was also their master.
“You were gone for a long time; were you studying with the teacher?” Ye Futian asked curiously.
Little Ling pinched her mouth and replied, “The three of them have no minds to study anything, as you know. After they visited the teacher, they slipped away from the Village. Master, guess where they went?”
“Where?” Ye Futian showed a look of curiosity.
“Master, guess,” Little Ling said. In front of Ye Futian, she was still acting like a little girl.
Ye Futian laughed as he looked at them. There were only so many places they could go in the Shangqing Domain.
“Domain Chief’s Manor or Nanhai Family?” Ye Futian asked.
“Right on.” Little Ling replied. “The Shangqing Domain Chief’s Manor had summoned all of the major forces to gather at the Domain Chief’s Manor, and these three crashed their party.”
“Just simply going to their ‘party’?” Ye Futian pressed teasingly.
“Master, it’s a bit more than that. We made some contributions.” Fang Cun scratched his head, not quite forthcoming.
“Tie Tou, you tell me.” Ye Futian looked at Tie Tou.
“We beat up some people and broke some of their stuff.” Tie Tou hesitated.
When Ye Futian heard him, he already had a picture in his mind.
“The Chief of Shangqing Domain Chief’s Manor has been disrespectful to the master, and had several exchanges with the master in confrontations. If it weren’t because of Donghuang Imperial Palace, we would have definitely not spare them of their lives. The same goes for the Nanhai Family, as well as the Muyun family that married into them. Consider their betrayal of the village, we have been more than merciful not cleaning up all these trash,” Duo Yu added coldly, feeling completely justified.
Ye Futian glanced at Duo Yu and thought that he had always been the least talkative of the four of them. But Ye Futian knew that this had something to do with his childhood. He grew up without parents and was raised by the village. He had always had low self-esteem and was not the most outspoken. If it weren’t because of Ye Futian who selected him, Duo Yu was fated to live an ordinary life.
Among the four disciples, Duo Yu might be the one who was most grateful to him, and cared the most about everything that happened to Ye Futian. As a result, he must have hated the Shangqing Domain Chief’s Manor and the Nanhai Family with a passion.
“What was done is done.” Ye Futian didn’t blame them. He understood the impetus behind his disciples’ motivations. They were just trying to avenge him.
“I knew Master would not punish us,” Fang Cun said with a smile. He was rewarded with a glare from Ye Futian. This guy was the biggest troublemaker of them all.
Boom… Just as they were talking, the ground suddenly shook, and the buildings inside Ziwei Imperial Palace were shaking. It was as if a violent earthquake had just occurred. Ye Futian had a suspicious look on his face as his divine consciousness covered the boundless space. But he detected nothing unusual.
He raised his head to look above the firmament. Was there someone here again?
His eyes seemed to penetrate the endless void, looking at a place very far away. In the place beyond the heavens, an extremely brilliant divine light seemed to imprint into his eyes.
What was that outside the Ziwei Segmentum?
