The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2820: The Next Heavenly Emperor

Ye Futian was immersed in the light of the Bodhi Divine Tree, like all the other cultivators in the ninety-nine heavens; they all trained under the Bodhi Divine Tree.

Ye Futian started to traverse within his realm. He traveled along the Unlimited Realm, desiring to see the present state of the realm. How far had the realm the Micro Heavenly Path created evolved?

He found the completion of many rules and laws and saw countless places similar to those outside, like the Land of Destruction and the Dark Abyss.

After a year, he returned and resumed cultivation and gained enlightenment.

This day, he sensed the Divine Power of the Law of Space flowing about him and a terrifying devouring power. As time passed, spatial whirlpools appeared around him. These whirlpools seemed to contain a vehement devouring power. Anything that moved around them would be devoured.

Clearly, he was still perfecting the laws and rules of this Micro Heavenly Path.

In the ninety-nine heavens, many cultivators were all making progress, even those already at the top. From the appearance of the Gods’ Continent until the introduction of this Micro Heavenly Path, they had all made leaps and bounds in their cultivation.

18 years felt like they had gone by in a flash.

To the cultivators in the ninety-nine heavens, it felt like a very short period. They had never been so obsessed with cultivating before.

And now, the seventh divine item was about to make its entrance. Would it belong to the Heaven Realm?

There was a high possibility.

The heirs of the Will of Deva of the Old Heaven Court and Heaven Realm represented Deva, which was the leader of the Eight Legions. If the current Heavenly Path was the remnant of the old Heavenly Path, then it would mean that the Heaven Realm was the most important descendant.

What was more, this Heavenly Path had appeared above the ninety-nine heavens, which in itself meant something.

All these seem to be telling the people that if a divine item were to be bestowed upon the Heaven Realm, it would be an exceptional and extraordinary item.

Every single person was looking forward to it.

After all, they learned through previous experiences that they would be able to benefit from whatever divine item the Heavenly Path chose to gift. All had a piece in the pie, and they had gained further enlightenment and made significant improvements.

As they waited, the day finally approached, and changes appeared in the heavens.

The changes seemed greater than in the past, which was very obviously different.

Countless rays of light descended from the sky dome and covered the ninety-nine heavens, filling the place with an auspicious air.

Accompanying these were other beams of light that also shone down and filled the entire sky dome with light as if they contained the consciousness of the Heavenly Law.

“What kind of divine item will it be this time?” The cultivators looked up at the heavens. It was the first time they witnessed a phenomenon like this. Would this divine item surpass the previous six?

One of the cultivators stretched his hand out under the lights. The Great Emperors-To-Be were astonished.

They were overwhelmed by such a spectacle in front of them.

“Oh?”

At that moment, as they were watching the sky, an aura emerged in the heavens and was moving about.

Following that was a second and then a third aura.

These three auras each morphed into three different airs that caused the divine powers in the heavens to go along with them.

“The Innate Nine Qi!”

The Great Emperors-To-Be from the older days were stunned. Was the Heavenly Path creating the Innate Nine Qi?!

They knew what the synthesis of the Innate Nine Qi and the Heavenly Law meant.

“A Heavenly Emperor!” the ancient Emperors from the older days let out an exclamation in surprise.

“Heavenly Emperor?” Many people were perplexed as to why the words “Heavenly Emperor” came out.

“The Heavenly Path desires to instate another Heavenly Emperor,” one of the ancient Emperors raised his head to the sky and replied softly. His voice was full of shock. The synthesis of the Innate Nine Qi and the Heavenly Law would give rise to the Nine Dragons True Qi.

And this Nine Dragons True Qi signified the Heavenly Emperor. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

Before the disintegration of the Heavenly Path, the Heavenly Emperor had access to the Nine Dragons True Qi and was the head of the gods and all living beings. He could be regarded as the most powerful after the Heavenly Path and even first in the world.

Nine Dragons True Qi was created by synthesizing Innate Nine Qi and the Heavenly Law. As the Heavenly Emperor was able to soak the Nine Dragons True Qi, he would not be part of the five elements, and divine powers beneath the Heavenly Path were unable to do him any harm. Even the Yin and Yang elements were utterly useless against him.

Was this Heavenly Path trying to restore the glories of ancient days?

They felt that they would probably be an eighth item belonging to the Original Realm.

Previously it had been the Eight Legions under the rule of the Heavenly Path, and today, it was the Seven Realms. With the addition of the Original Realm, it would be eight of them, similar to the Eight Legions of the past. Of course, this was just wishful thinking on the Heavenly Path. Would the current Seven Realms and the Original Realm still be willing to be under the rule of the Heavenly Path?

What was more, it was still incomplete and might be the remnant of the previous Heavenly Path.

Ye Futian opened his eyes as he felt an extraordinary bout of energy. It felt like the Heavenly Law itself. He looked toward the heavens and saw nine rays of divine light transforming into the figure of a dragon. They descended from the sky and shone upon the Heavenly Palace in the Heaven Realm.

The people knew long ago that the Heavenly Path possessed a consciousness and thus did not find the scene they had just seen unexpected despite being surprised.

Did the Heavenly Path still desire to let the Heaven Realm be the spokesperson for the world?

Just then, Ji Wudao stepped forward. He was floating above the Heavenly Palace and immersed in the nine rays of divine light. The ablution of the Heavenly Path imbued him with a terrifying aura that caused many surprised faces.

They realized that Ji Wudao had become a Great Emperor-To-Be a long time ago.

Ye Futian looked at Ji Wudao. He already knew before that Ji Wudao was a person who concealed himself well but was extremely powerful. He had met the heirs of all Seven Realms before, and out of them, Ji Wudao felt the most dangerous.

Who would have thought that he would be a Great Emperor-to-be already? It seems like before the people had arrived, Ji Wudao had already been abluted by the Heavenly Path, which was not surprising given that the Heavenly Path was located in the Heaven Realm.

Many people in the ninety-nine heavens looked toward Ji Wudao.

Will the world see the appearance of another Heavenly Emperor?

At that moment, they vaguely saw the Heavenly Emperor returning.

“The world is going to change greatly,” Supreme Swordlord murmured to himself. “I never thought it would be him.”

“I see Swordlord favors Ji Wudao?” Ye Futian asked.

“He inherited the Will of the Heaven Realm and has been abluted by the Heavenly Path. He is destined to be the next Heavenly Emperor. There are many outstanding cultivators in the Seven Realms, and Ji Wudao has always kept a low profile. But now, it seems like he will be the one that can shake things up,” Supreme Swordlord answered. “Perhaps, he will be one of your most difficult opponents.”

“Yeah.” Ye Futian nodded. He did not know what the future would be like, but he was not afraid even if Ji Wudao were to become the next Heavenly Emperor. He had become the embodiment of the Micro Heavenly Path!
