The Legend of Futian - Chapter 2577

In the year 10,0128 of the Divine Prefecture Calendar, a full 28 years had passed since the battle took place in the Ziwei Segmentum.

Over the past 28 years, the forces from the Divine Prefecture had gradually forgotten about the war that took place in the Ziwei Segmentum. Time could fade away many things, especially under the circumstance in which the Ziwei Segmentum was sealed. With the Heaven Tempering Enumeration in place, those in the Divine Prefecture had the impression that it was only a matter of time before the Ziwei Segmentum became a world of hellfire, and it was no longer worth their time to give the issue any more attention.

On the other hand, all the principalities in the Divine Prefecture had experienced one major event after another, so who else would give any more thoughts to Ziwei Segmentum?

Even Tianyan City slowly forgot about it. Perhaps only Wang Xiao would still remember it from time to time. He thought that Ye Futian was probably using his own life as the cost to block the destructive power of the Heaven Tempering Enumeration. In a few more years, everything would be destroyed by flames.

At that time, he would be able to retrieve the Heaven Tempering Enumeration.

Just as everyone had gradually forgotten about the Ziwei Segmentum, the starry sky inside the Ziwei Segmentum had undergone some subtle changes.

At this time, in the forbidden starry sky, there were many cultivators there, including Lord Chen and the others, who were there watching the changes happening in front of them.

Just as before, Lord Chen and the others would come here from time to time. Two years ago, they discovered that this starry sky world was a little different from before.

Lord Chen and his party stood in the starry sky, looking at the sky full of stars. More and more, Ye Futian resembled a starry divine tree, and all the stars in the heavens were like the fruits upon the tree. At the moment, the sky full of stars was swallowing up the destructive fire from the Heaven Tempering Enumeration and bringing it back into the stars.

In addition, the stars in the heavens seemed to be in harmony with the aura of all the Great Paths of the world, making the light of the stars even brighter. Faintly, it seemed to overpower the destructive divine glory released from the Heaven Tempering Enumeration.

At the same time, the sky full of starlight even began to flow backward, nourishing Ye Futian’s divine body, making him radiant all over, like a bona fide starry divine body. In his elusive body of flesh and blood, the starry sky world could vaguely be seen.

“The Palace Lord must still be there, and he is cultivating and getting stronger.” Lord Chen looked solemn as he stared at Ye Futian’s figure in the starry sky in front of him. The world of heavens was infinitely radiant, like a world of galaxy. This galaxy was dominated by the starry divine tree, and even he was shocked by such wondrous sight.

“Mmm.” Murong Yu nodded. “This place here is very suitable for us to cultivate. The Palace Lord is indeed a genius, the true talent from the heavens. Within the Divine Prefecture, who can compare with him?”

“Is it possible that this battle was a blessing in disguise for the Palace Lord?”

After waiting for a full twenty-eight years, many people had been disappointed, scared, and even became hopeless at times. They came here often to visit Ye Futian because they were worried that it would be the last time and that they would never see him again.

However, two years ago, this worry gradually subsided as they regained their confidence.

Especially recently when this situation had become more obvious. Ye Futian must have retained his consciousness. He had never disappeared, and he had always been there, guarding the Ziwei Segmentum. More importantly, in the process of keeping them safe, he was looking for a way to bring the standoff to an end. Now, Ye Futian seemed to have found a solution, as he was seeking a way to break through the Heaven Tempering Enumeration.

Perhaps, there was a real chance that it could be done.

“Is the Master coming back?” Little Ling murmured behind him. A strong hope surged in their hearts. They had waited for this day for too long; it had been 28 years.

Even when he went to cultivate at the Western Heavenly World of Buddhism, it had not been as long as this.

“Maybe he can come back at any time. Now, we have to wait patiently.” Lord Chen said, “What is strange is that the Palace Lord’s wife seems to be the same as the Palace Lord; her telekinesis power has integrated into the stars in the heavens. We have no idea what she was going through with the Palace Lord.”

“Maybe they are cultivating together,” said Murong Yu.

Now, everyone began to look forward to the return of the Palace Lord.

28 years ago, the Palace Lord was able to defeat Wang Xiao with a single strike. At the level of the first Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, it was almost impossible for him to find an opponent worthy of him. How strong would the Palace Lord be if he had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path?

“Go back for now. Let’s not disturb the Palace Lord’s cultivation for the time being,” Lord Chen said. Right now, they were actually feeling quite relieved that they no longer had to worry about Ye Futian’s safety.

“Very well.” Everyone nodded as they withdrew one after the other.

Now, they just needed to wait patiently for Ye Futian’s return.

After the crowd left, the stars in the heavens, as usual, were devouring that Heaven Tempering divine fire day after day. It was as if they would never stop.

As time went on, day by day, the stars in the heavens released the starry divine light, like the leaves on willow branches, spreading towards the boundless space, permeating into every corner. They had even begun reaching inside the Heaven Tempering Enumeration, penetrating it, constantly eroding the imperial arms.

The imperial arms were imbued with spirit, and the Heaven Tempering Enumeration seemed to be fighting back as an even more violent heaven tempering divine fire was burning, attempting to immolate the power of the stars. However, that power of the Great Path was like an indelible and immortal path that could not be tempered. It continued its Infiltration and fought against the divine fire, even reversing its tempering and swallowing the fire instead.

Buzz! Gradually, a dazzling divine light burst out above the Heaven Tempering Enumeration, flooding the boundless space. At this moment, inside Ziwei Segmentum, all the cultivators looked up at the sky as if they, too, felt a supreme heavenly might of destruction. It was as if the Imperial arms were enraged.

At the same time, Wang Xiao had sensed it as well in the Divine Prefecture, as if the Heaven Tempering Enumeration was extremely angered.

Boom… above the Heaven Tempering Enumeration, it seemed as if there was a shower of meteors trying to burn up the stars in the sky, and the sea of fire enveloped the entire periphery of the Ziwei Segmentum, terrifying to the extreme. All the cultivators in Ziwei Segmentum were horrified, their faces full of shock. Many people could feel the fear that came from the depths of their souls.

What exactly was happening?

The imperial arms were so angry. It was as if imperial might was about to descend.

The entire Ziwei world seemed to be refined and immolated. Above the firmament, in the Heaven Tempering Enumeration, there appeared an awesome figure; it was Tianyan the Great, with extremely dominance. His might was enough to shock the heavens. It was as if the Great Emperor’s will had been awakened. This was the spirit of the imperial arms, and now, it was mad.

Because a power tried to eat away the imperial arms and eat away at him.

“No…” Inside Ziwei Imperial Palace, Lord Chen and the others looked up in the sky, as the expressions on their faces changed. The starry sky world seemed to have changed as it had urged the will of Tianyan the Great so that the Great Emperor had manifested and sent divine flames to destroy the world.

Could Ye Futian bear it?

They no longer had the kind of calmness they had before. At this moment, their hearts were in their throats.

At the same time, all the stars in the starry sky world were even more dazzling. Ye Futian had morphed into the starry divine tree, as incomparably brilliant divine light permeated from him. Suddenly, his eyes opened, and the stars in the heavens were as one body, and he had incarnated as the ruler of this starry sky.

Buzz! Accompanied with the falling starlight, a massive and boundless phantom appeared to cover Ye Futian’s figure, as if what was growing on this divine tree of stars was the figure of Ziwei the Great.

The moment this figure appeared, everyone in Ziwei Segmentum saw it; all of them were inexplicably excited by this sight.

“Ziwei descended in the world, the Great Emperor is showing himself!” Some worshipped the sky above. The will of Ziwei the Great seemed to have been completely awakened at this moment.

Above the firmament, the two Great Emperors faced each other. This seemed to have been turned into a battle between the Great Emperors.

Ziwei the Great bathed in starlight as the radiance of all the stars in the heavens merged into him. Suddenly, a supreme murderous might spread out and rushed straight into the sky. That murderous intent was terrifying to the extreme, for it was the murderous intent of emperors and kings. Instantly, the cultivators in the entire Ziwei Segmentum were trembling. Their spiritual souls were suppressed as countless demonic beasts prostrated on the ground, daring not to raise their heads.

Above the Heaven Tempering Enumeration, an incomparable divine light of destruction appeared and converged on the phantom of Tianyan the Great. The two Great Emperors had a confrontation.

Buzz! The destructive heaven tempering divine light came from the top, and the beam of light penetrated the heavens. At the same time, on the body of Ziwei the Great, a Ziwei divine sword with unparalleled murderous aura went up against the momentum. This purple divine sword turned into a ruinous purple light beam as the golden flames and the white and purple divine light collided in the void. A storm of destruction swept out, and the entire Ziwei Segmentum shuddered.

The purple divine light directly pierced the beam of light that was flaming gold in color, then penetrated the phantom of Tianyan the Great, through and through. It continued upward and broke open the Heaven Tempering Enumeration, leaving a gaping hole in it; the Imperial arms were destroyed.

The blinding divine light caused everyone inside Ziwei Segmentum to close their eyes, and they dared not take even a peek. After a long while, they finally opened their eyes and looked towards the firmament. As that terrible light of destruction gradually dissipated, everything was turning back to normal. Up above the boundless sky, the shadow that had hovered over them for the past twenty-eight years was gone. That crisis of imminent destruction that hung above everyone’s heads disappeared just like that.

Inside Ziwei Imperial Palace, everyone raised their heads to look into the sky. When they saw the firmament had returned to normal, there was an incredibly brilliant smile in everyone’s eyes. The shadow that had been buried in everyone’s hearts for the past twenty-eight year was finally gone.

Ye Futian had managed to awaken the will of Ziwei the Great. The Great Emperor had manifested himself to destroy Tianyan and destroy the imperial arms.

They had won!

“Let’s go!” Lord Chen and the others levitated into the sky and headed higher up into the sky. After some time, they came to the place above the firmament, where the residual of that destructive power remained.

Their eyes looked around as if searching for something.

At this moment, two figures drifted down from high above the sky. The man wore a white garment. He had a head of white hair, and he was handsome beyond words. The woman with an ethereal visage looked like the Jiutian Goddess herself. They stood hand in hand and appeared in front of everyone.

Moreover, their temperament seemed to have become somewhat different yet again.

At this time, Ye Futian’s closed eyes finally opened. The starry divine light dazzled and blinded everyone’s eyes. Lord Chen watched these two returning and revealed a bright smile. They had not been able to laugh with such relief for a very long time.

There were also Gu Dongliu, Zhuge Mingyue, Xiao Muyu, Dou Zhao, Chen Yi, Fang Cun, Blind Tie, and everyone smiled brightly.

After 28 years, they were finally back!
