The Divine Prefecture was boundless and vast and held n infinite numbers of continental plates.

The Great Bright Domain was the highest domain inside the Divine Prefecture other than the Imperial City. Located on the east side of the Divine Prefecture, it was a domain that was somewhat peculiar among all 18 domains. Because of its history, the Great Bright Domain was shrouded in mystery and was a destination to explore for many cultivators.

Furthermore, compared to other domains in the Divine Prefecture, today’s Great Bright Domain had the smallest footprint as a majority of its territory had been divvied up by the other surrounding domains. It was no longer part of the existing Great Bright Domain. Some even claimed that the Great Bright Domain should have never existed.

Therefore, so many years later, the so-called Great Bright Realm, in fact, was only a single continent. This one remaining continent was what the world referred to as the Great Bright Realm today, which was also called the Great Bright City.

A domain was a city.

Naturally, this city was vast and had a mystical allure.

According to legend, the Great Bright City was actually the Bright Temple, and the entire city was the grounds of the Bright Temple. This was the reason that so many years later, the Great Bright City was shrouded in light and seemed to contain the power of light.

However, the light was everywhere. Many people had been exposed to the light since the day they were born. It was precisely because it was everywhere that it was more difficult to capture and comprehend. In addition to being born with this kind of ability, the vast majority of the cultivators in the world were unable to perceive the Great Path of Light, let alone comprehend it.

Chen Yi was the only expert in the Method of Light that Ye Futian had ever seen all these years.

In the Divine Prefecture, the vast majority of those who cultivated the Method of Light were in the Great Bright City. This was the most suitable place for cultivating the power of light, but it was also the least suitable place for anyone who cultivated and comprehended other Great Paths.

At this time, in the void outside the Great Bright Domain, a group of people was traveling through the void between the clouds and the mists. There were nine people altogether in this group. Under them was a flying boat flashing with golden light. It contained a mighty spatial power of the Great Path. It took them shuttling through the space constantly, moving through the clouds and mist.

These nine were none other than Ye Futian and his entourage.

Ye Futian, Hua Jieyu, Hua Qingqing, Chen Yi, Blind Tie, and four other youngsters, including Fang Cun.

“Almost there.” At this time, on the flying boat, Chen Yi spoke up while still looking into the distance. He had always been somewhat of a jokester. He appeared sober and serious right now as he watched the brilliant light that was falling from the sky far away.

“No wonder it’s called the Great Bright Field,” Ye Futian whispered. The light came down from the firmament, and it was visible to the naked eye. It was something extremely magical. It was enough to distinguish that continent from other areas. It seemed as if it was an independent world of its own. No one had any idea what kind of force was capable of causing such a vision.

“Are you from here?” Ye Futian asked Chen Yi, who was next to him.

“Mmm,” Chen nodded. “I grew up here when I was a child. The light falling from the sky can make one perceive the power of light much more clearly. I have been able to perceive the existence of light since I was a child, and this type of light was nurturing to my body.”

“That explains the Illumining Body of the Great Path you possessed.” Ye Futian looked at Chen Yi and continued, “So, who are you?”

Obviously, Chen Yi was more than he appeared.

“Who am I?” Chen Yi smiled, a little self-deprecating. “That blind man said that I was born to be extraordinary, but I never felt anything close to it myself. For many years, I have been accustomed to being alone by myself. I’m nothing special.”

Chen Yi’s statement revealed a lot to Ye Futian; it seemed that Chen Yi was someone with a story.

“Then, why did you go to the Donghuang Domain?” Ye Futian asked out of curiosity. The Great Bright Domain was actually quite a ways away from the Donghuang Domain. Chen Yi had gone over there in the early phases of becoming a Renhuang for unknown reasons.

“Because someone asked me to go,” Chen Yi smiled and said, watching the area where bright lights were sprinkling down.

Ye Futian didn’t quite understand what he meant. Did someone ask him to go? The source of this content is novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Who was it that had asked Chen Yi to go to the Donghuang Domain? It didn’t seem that he had achieved any major feats in the Donghuang Domain. Instead, he ended up escaping with him later and came along all this way.

But Chen Yi didn’t seem to want to continue discussing this topic. He was still looking into the distance when he suddenly asked, “Do you believe in fate?”

Ye Futian looked pensive when he heard Chen Yi’s question. Fate?

Why would Chen Yi ask him that?

“To a certain extent.” Ye Futian nodded and continued, “When I was a teenager, I knew an astrologer who was able to glimpse into the future.”

“I don’t, not really,” Chen Yi said, his eyes moved away and redirected on Ye Futian. He smiled, “However, even if I don’t much believe it, I still want to try it.”

“I don’t understand,” Ye Futian said. He didn’t really understand what Chen Yi meant by that.

“Perhaps you will later,” Chen Yi smiled and said. “As for now, I can’t tell you.”

Ye Futian looked slightly puzzled. He felt that today Chen Yi seemed to be speaking in riddles. His words were not transparent at all.

What kind of secret was Chen Yi hiding?

What was it that he wanted to say?

The flying boat was still moving forward, shuttling through the void. Although they could see the place of light from afar, they were, in fact, still quite a distance away from there. The light scattered upon the world, covering the Great Bright Domain, rendering it much brighter than they ever imagined possible. Therefore, even though they could see it, they were actually still very far away.

After a while, the flying boat broke through the clouds and mist and finally came to the Great Bright Domain.

In the void, there was no mist or clouds—only the light that shone from the infinite source.

Ye Futian stretched out his hand, and he could see the light shining on his hand with his naked eyes. This world was much brighter than any place he had ever been. When the light was shining on his body, he could feel something miraculous. Probably it was exactly as Chen Yi had described—someone could only be born with this kind of light power.

“Where are we going?” Ye Futian asked Chen Yi.

“This Great Bright Domain used to be just a city, but it was, in fact, the territory of the Bright Temple. In this city, it was rumored that the ruins of the Bright Temple are there, and that’s where we are heading.” Chen Yi said, “Keep going. I will give you directions.”

“Do the ruins of the Bright Temple really exist?” Ye Futian said with some doubt. “If so, how many people came here over the years to try to find the ruins of the Bright Temple?”

“Are you asking me?” Chen Yi shrugged and said, “But you are right. Over the years, there have been many people who came in search of its ruins. Even the Domain Chief’s Manor guarding the Great Bright Domain was built close to the ruins for obvious reasons. However, no one has ever succeeded in finding the ruins, so who knows whether it exists or not.”

“Then, why did you ask me to come here with you?” Ye Futian asked, and this question seemed to touch the heart of the matter at hand.

Chen Yi looked at him and smiled, “Because somebody believes in it!”
