Chapter 2598: Fall of a Giant
The Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain stared at Ye Futian. How could a Level-Nine Renhuang possess such combat ability?
He was well aware of how much destructive power his Celestial Worthy Seal possessed. It contained his comprehension of the Great Path and his will. However, from Ye Futian’s attack, he similarly sensed the power of the Great Path unique to Ye Futian.
Even though Ye Futian demonstrated swordsmanship, his swords destroyed the Great Path. It was as though his swords were destined to eradicate all the other Great Paths.
Ye Futian did not seem to belong in the Renhuang Plane. Only cultivators who had undergone the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path could start their own Way and possess their own will of the Great Path. Yet, Ye Futian had already had it.
So, exactly what plane was Ye Futian currently at?
“Have you undergone the Divine Tribulation?” questioned the Mountain Master as he stared at Ye Futian. This possibility appeared to be the only logical reason. Otherwise, he could not explain why Ye Futian would possess such frightening combat ability.
Cultivators who were at the Renhuang Plane could not possibly have such combat abilities.
“What do you think?” Ye Futian did not respond to the question directly. In reality, he had undergone two Divine Tribulations. Nevertheless, the Divine Tribulations that he experienced were different from those the others experienced.
Since Ye Futian, a Level-Nine Renhuang, had already gone through two Divine Tribulations, logically speaking, the Divine Tribulations that he experienced should be easier than that of others. However, in reality, the might of the tribulations that he experienced was not any weaker. He was baptized twice by the Divine Tribulations of the Great Path. Both his flesh and his bones were regenerated. He had a divine body and a strong physique, to begin with. Therefore, he could often take attacks from cultivators who had been through two Divine Tribulations of the Great Path head-on because of these two reasons.
Moreover, Ye Futian’s divine body was already a Body of the Great Path. His flesh was woven from the Way. In terms of flesh, there were most likely very few people in the world who were stronger than Ye Futian.
When the Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain heard Ye Futian speaking with a nonchalant tone, he was certain that the latter had undergone the Divine Tribulation.
Ye Futian used some special tricks to hide his cultivation, causing it to remain at the Renhuang Plane. He had fooled everyone in the Divine Prefecture.
“Even when you invaded the Divine Prefecture, you did not reveal your true ability. Have you been waiting for this day to come?” the Mountain Master questioned. Back when Ye Futian infiltrated Haotian City of the Divine Prefecture, he utilized Celerity to avoid head-on battles. All the targets that he killed were One-tribulation cultivators. He did not battle with any Two-tribulation cultivators directly.
It could be said that Ye Futian had been hiding his true combat ability.
“I have too many powerful enemies in the Divine Prefecture. If I don’t kill off a few, it would be a poor showing in this great battle against the forces of the Divine Prefecture. How will I be able to leave all of you in shock and awe?” said Ye Futian as he looked at the Mountain Master. “Unfortunately, you will become a sacrifice in this battle.”
When the Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain heard Ye Futian’s words, he first fell silent. Then, his face revealed a smile. His smile grew wider and wider, and then he began laughing loudly. In the heavens above, the space shook violently. Terrifying pressure enveloped the vast space, suppressing the entire Heavenly Mandate City.
Even though the city was protected by Ye Futian’s domain, the laughter still caused the members of Heavenly Mandate City to have goosebumps. They felt a searing pain in their head; it was as though they were about to explode. They covered their ears with their hands as they looked up at the indomitable figure in the sky.
The Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain seemed enraged by Ye Futian’s arrogance.
“I dominated the Boundless Domain and have ruled over Celestial Worthy Mountain for many years. In the Divine Prefecture, few dare to claim that they can best me. Now, a junior of the Original Realm actually sees me as his prey. It is ridiculous,” roared Celestial Worthy Mountain Master. His voice rolled over them like huge waves, shaking the space. It was as though the heavens were collapsing and the earth was splitting apart.
The Great Path seemed to collapse all around them. Terrifying cracks in space consumed the power of the Great Path. Divine mountains came crashing down. It appeared as though the entire world was on the brink of destruction.
The roaring laughter persisted, becoming sound waves of the Great Path. They shattered everything and even destroyed spiritual souls.
Divine mountains came crashing down on Ye Futian. Yet, they still could not touch his divine body. However, his opponent did not just attack his flesh; he also attacked Ye Futian’s spiritual soul, causing their surroundings to become ethereal.
Celestial Worthy Mountain stood out in the Divine Prefecture and was the second divine holy land in the Boundless Domain where the Ancient God Clan Infinite Mountains resided. Celestial Worthy Mountain Master definitely lived up to his name. His ability was indisputable. He was a true giant-level figure.
Right then, the other party’s figure also disappeared. The cultivators of Heavenly Mandate City saw the figure of Celestial Worthy Mountain Master merge with his Great Path domain. He became a part of the divine mountain that enveloped the space. In the sky above, his face appeared.
Maniacal laughter could be heard coming from all directions. The attack of the sound wave annihilated everything. Even the Mo Clan Leader and Lord Chen, who were engaged in a different fight, were affected by the laughter.
“Ye Futian, you claim that I can’t kill you. Now, I wish to ask: how do you intend to kill me?” A domineering voice descended along with the sound wave attack, blasting on Ye Futian continuously.
At this moment, the Mountain Master was the absolute ruler of this part of the sky. His existence was indisputable. This was his domain and his world.
Ye Futian raised his head and cast a glance at the other party. Dazzling divine light radiated from his eyes. Suddenly, the surroundings were lit with the blazing Light of Buddha. Ye Futian transformed into a buddha. It was his Acalanatha Battle Form. He formed a Buddhist seal with his hands. The Sound of Buddha reverberated in space as tens of thousands of Buddhist runes danced in the air. An absolute domain was formed around him. Regardless of physical attacks or spiritual soul attacks, they were all blocked outside his absolute domain.
“A buddha!” someone exclaimed.
This was the first time the cultivators from Heavenly Mandate City witnessed Ye Futian in battle since he returned. The Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain transformed into a deity. On the other hand, Ye Futian transformed into a buddha. He recited the Vajra Spell, and his body was immovable like a mountain. The dual attack from the other party could not affect him at the slightest.
“Today, you must die here!” The buddha spoke of his determination to kill the Mountain Master. His voice was not loud, but his tone was certain and bore an air of superiority. His confidence bordered on arrogance.
Ye Futian, who had undergone two Divine Tribulations of the Great Path, had absolute confidence that he would be able to kill the Mountain Master.
“Is that so? We shall wait and see.” As soon as the Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain said this, his domain of the Great Path in the sky shone with brilliant light. A Celestial Worthy Seal was coalesced. It floated in midair and enveloped the entire domain. Its attack range covered every single corner of the space.
This attack enshrouded the entire area, covering the sun and the sky. It charged downwards directly. Rune lights flowed around the Celestial Worthy Seal. Each streak of rune light contained overbearing might that could eradicate all of existence.
The Mountain Master shifted his will, and the attack charged forth. Ye Futian could block his Great Path Soundwave attack, but could he block this overbearing attack of the Celestial Worthy Seal?
The cultivators of Heavenly Mandate City felt as though the sky had been flooded with runes. All of them were in great terror as their bodies trembled. Some weaker cultivators felt weak in their knees.
A battle of this level was too terrifying. Ye Futian and the Mountain Master could easily destroy a realm with their attacks.
However, Ye Futian had also reached such a cultivation plane.
Could Deity Ye, whom the Heavenly Mandate Realm placed their faith in, block his opponent’s attack?
If he couldn’t, Heavenly Mandate City would most likely be destroyed.
Some cultivators thought that since Deity Ye chose to face his opponent head-on, he would certainly be confident that he could kill the other party. They held fast to their faith as they looked at the battlefield in the sky.
The Light of Buddha glowed brilliantly. 1000 buddhas took form and appeared beside Ye Futian. All of them recited Buddhist chants at the same time while they sent out Palms of Mahavairocana. Concurrently, a majestic and divine ancient buddha showed up. The Palms of Mahavairocana, unleashed by the 1000 buddhas, gathered and combined into a gigantic Palm of Mahavairocana. The palm charged towards the sky, colliding with the descending Celestial Worthy Seal.
The heavens and earth seemed to be collapsing.
Cracks actually appeared on the Celestial Worthy Seal. It was shattered from the shockwaves. The Palm of Mahavairocana continued to push upwards. It was extremely domineering.
In the divine mountain domain of the Great Path, divine light shone, and another Celestial Worthy Seal descended, suppressing the world. It crashed onto the Palm of Mahavairocana, followed by a third and fourth seal. It was as though within the divine mountain domain, Celestial Worthy Seals could be sent out endlessly until everything within the domain was destroyed.
The Sound of Buddha circled as Ye Futian recited the Six Syllables of Truth. The power of Buddha immediately grew stronger. 1000 buddhas appeared in different locations. At the same time, they extended their arms and sent out Palms of Mahavairocana, which blocked off the endless waves of Celestial Worthy Seals.
At the same time, Ye Futian’s true figure emerged from the figure of the buddha. Scorching light surged out from his body.
Ye Futian extended his hands, and divine light circled him. Within the Great Path domain, countless divine swords appeared. These divine swords hummed as they radiated blinding divine halos. Path-destroying power emanated from each sword. They were gigantic and gave off a sense of power. They also contained destructive will that could tear the space apart.
“Avici!”
Ye Futian looked up at the sky, and countless divine swords shot out simultaneously, ignoring the distance between him and his opponent.
Bang.
A divine sword slashed on a falling Celestial Worthy Seal. It was then followed by a second sword and then a third… Countless divine swords sliced through the Celestial Worthy Seals.
At the same time, Ye Futian himself seemed to have transformed into a sword. He was indestructible and could pierce through all things. He was the embodiment of swordsmanship.
Or it could be said that, currently, he was a divine sword.
Buzz.
A beam of light flashed as a divine sword traversed across space and penetrated through a Celestial Worthy Seal. Then, it struck the divine mountain domain, which was high in the sky. The sword stabbed into the region where the face of the Mountain Master was, causing a dull thud to sound in the Great Path domain.
It was then followed by a second sword and then a third… Innumerable swords followed suit and struck on different parts of the divine mountain domain.
The divine mountain domain was riddled with divine swords. Beams of destructive divine light radiated, causing fissures to appear on the divine mountain domain. Brilliant light shone through the cracks.
The face of the Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain appeared on the wall of the domain. He revealed a terrified expression. He was no longer bearing an air of authority like he was before; instead, he was in a panic now.
Rumble.
Rumble.
The cracks on the divine mountain domain propagated continuously, and the domain started crumbling. Countless fissures were illuminated at the same time. Then, an exceptionally dazzling divine light burst forth. The domain was completely crushed; it appeared as though the sky was shattered.
Soon, the space above Heavenly Mandate City regained its peace. Clouds drifted idly in the sky. The cultivators could no longer sense the might pressuring down on them. The silhouette of the Mountain Master could not be found either.
Ye Futian alone remained standing in midair. With his white hair and white robes, he appeared glorious.
The Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain had perished!
A cultivator who had undergone two Divine Tribulations of the Great Path had died at the hands of Ye Futian.
The hearts of the other cultivators from the Divine Prefecture trembled violently. They couldn’t help but escape. They dashed in different directions. However, beams of divine light instantly descended upon them despite their distance from Ye Futian. The divine lights sliced through them, causing them to pause in their tracks.
After revealing his true ability, Ye Futian could kill One-tribulation cultivators with a flick of his wrist!
