Chapter 2744 Slaying Yet Another Near-Deity
Ye Futian’s figure disappeared from where he stood. When he appeared once again, he instantly descended upon Infernal Divine Clan Leader. The Divine Ruler stabbed out like a sharp sword and was extremely domineering. The Clan Leader never imagined that Ye Futian would actually attempt to kill him in close combat. The long spear imperial arm in the former’s hands similarly stabbed forward. The two terrifying powers clashed, and an astonishing storm was swept up. Buzz. Ye Futian’s figure disappeared again. Around Infernal Divine Clan Leader, there suddenly appeared many exterior incarnations of Ye Futian. Dazzling jade-green divine light circled each of them. All of them seemed to possess the power of the Divine Ruler.
These incarnations also seemed to never stop moving. More and more of them appeared, filling up the space around the Clan Leader.
“This is a movement technique,” said someone down below as they looked up at the battlefield in the sky. Ye Futian not only possessed the Buddhist technique Celerity, but he also cultivated movement techniques. He seemed to have millions of incarnations. No one could tell which was the original.
The top forces knew that back in the relic of the Old Heaven Court, Ye Futian had obtained many divine stones that contained divine techniques. Had Ye Futian cultivated this technique from them?
Unbeknownst to them, this movement technique was not anything special. However, when used in conjunction with Celerity, it became very powerful. No one could pinpoint where Ye Futian’s true body was at all.
Nevertheless, against top cultivators, it was meaningless to merely be proficient in movement techniques.
Behind Infernal Divine Clan Leader, a frightening gray silhouette of a god appeared. A dark domain enveloped the surrounding area. Dark infernal fire appeared in the entire domain. Fire engulfed the entire sky. Black lotuses blossomed from the flames and consumed the power in the surroundings.
Terrifying infernal fire attempted to consume the incarnations of Ye Futian. However, the incarnations seemed to surround the area and made the space an absolute domain. The sky was filled with jade-green divine light that blocked out the sun. Ye Futian’s phantasms were everywhere.
Suddenly, the blinding Light of Buddha pierced through the darkness. His incarnations became ancient golden buddhas. All of them possessed indestructible golden bodies. The Sound of Buddha reverberated across the sky. The power of the Six Syllables of Truth circulated in the area. When the infernal fire descended on the figures of the ancient buddhas, the fire was actually purified and extinguished.
The infernal lotuses in this domain of space similarly withered. They seemed to be sealed by this domain.
“It is a domain!” exclaimed various cultivators as they looked up at the region.
Up until moments ago, the incarnations took the form of Ye Futian. Suddenly, they became various buddhas who filled the skies. Even more frighteningly, their figures were slanted and formed a ring above Ye Futian and Infernal Divine Clan Leader. The Light of Buddha shone brightly, and a gigantic Buddha Lord silhouette appeared.
Bang. Menacing sounds reverberated as all the buddhas unleashed All Heaven Buddha’s Seal at the same time. Their palm strikes coalesced into a single Buddha’s Seal and headed straight towards Infernal Divine Clan Leader.
Palace Lord has grown stronger, Lord Chen thought as he observed the battle from the ground below. After a few years of cultivation, Ye Futian’s ability had further improved. Even though he had yet to break through the shackles of the plane, he had a more profound understanding of his techniques. Rumble. The Clan Leader raised his imperial arm. Immediately, infernal storms were whipped up in space. Destructive spears materialized from the eyes of the storms and shot out towards different directions. Each of them targeted a different part of the incoming Buddha’s Seal.
A loud collision echoed in space. The spear hit the Buddha’s Seal. The latter covered the entire sky and countless Symbols of Wan were carved on it. It radiated with the dazzling Light of Buddha. Its momentum pushed Infernal Divine Clan Leader slightly downwards. However, countless cracks appeared on the Buddha’s Seal when the power stored in the imperial arm exploded upon collision. Then, the seal disintegrated.
The very next second, an intense killing intent permeated the space around the Clan Leader. A divine sword charged directly towards him from the heavens above.
It was the Heaven Slaying Divine Sword. The awe-inspiring sword slashed its way downwards. Infernal Divine Clan Leader retaliated head on with his spear. This time, the momentum of the enormous divine sword pressed down on the Clan Leader, causing him to slide down uncontrollably.
“Get lost!” barked Infernal Divine Clan Leader as power frenziedly burst forth from his body. He was enveloped by a dark infernal storm. Endless dark currents twirled around the divine sword. The Clan Leader had activated his imperial arm to its utmost limit.
“Presumptuous,” a voice rebuked loudly. The thunderous voice echoed in the mind of the Clan Leader. This Sonic Wave attack blasted his spiritual soul directly as it was laced with the spell power. The Clan Leader stared blankly at the heavens above. Then, he saw a pair of terrifying eyes. The pupils were jade-green in color.
The power of the Divine Ruler, which Ye Futian devoured a few years ago, seemed to have perfectly merged with his own Great Path. It was now flowing in every single part of his body. Even his eyes contained its power.
The Clan Leader activated his Eye Sorcery, and his eyes emitted divine lights. Terrifying will burst forth from his jet-black eyes. The Infernal God appeared in the Eye Sorcery Zone forged by the Clan Leader, and it swooped towards Ye Futian along with the dark divine power.
Ye Futian gathered the power of the Divine Ruler in this very Eye Sorcery Zone of his opponent. The Infernal God then entered into a complete world. Ye Futian was the god of this world and his face formed the sky. He transformed into a Tianshen and appeared directly in the zone. As his Divine Ruler slashed down, its power was akin to the Heavenly Rule Power. It was capable of eradicating all the Paths in the world.
“This is bad.”
Infernal Divine Clan Leader noticed that things had taken a turn for the worse. He frantically swung his imperial arm and destroyed the Heaven Slaying Divine Sword. Clearly, he realized that Ye Futian had transferred the power of the Divine Ruler into countering his Eye Sorcery. However, the Clan Leader did not have an imperial arm in his own Eye Sorcery Zone.
How did Ye Futian manage to pull this off?
In the Eye Sorcery Zone of the Clan Leader, the Divine Ruler overcame all resistance and slayed its way downwards. Infernal Divine Clan Leader unleashed a majestic might to withstand against it, but his effort was in vain as the Divine Ruler still penetrated through all things and stabbed into his body.
He let out a dull groan. His will was severely injured. His eyes were shut tight as his body tumbled backwards.
Buzz. A beam of dazzling divine light immediately pierced through the sky. Under the watch of countless astonished gazes, Infernal Divine Clan Leader’s body trembled violently in the domain. The phantasm of a Divine Ruler penetrated his figure.
His will as well as his flesh had been struck and penetrated by the Divine Ruler.
Ye Futian did not stop there. The crowd saw beams of jade-green divine light constantly flashing as they pierced his opponent’s figure again and again. Finally, a Divine Ruler materialized and stabbed through Infernal Divine Clan Leader, pinning him to the domain.
A Near-Deity had perished in such a manner. He had been brutally murdered in battle!
