The Legend of Futian

Chapter 1991 - Dispute


Chapter 1991: Dispute

Donghua Heavens was the main continent of the Donghua Domain. It was situated in the center of the Donghua Domain. People did not like to refer to it as the Donghua Continent, instead calling it “Donghua Heavens.”

The Manor of the Domain Chief of the Donghua Domain was also in the Donghua Heavens. As the main continent, the overall ability of the cultivators of the Donghua Heavens was definitely the strongest in the entire Domain. They had countless cultivators.

The occasion on Turtle Deity Island had stirred up the Donghua Domain. The cultivators of Donghua Heavens were similarly drawn to this place.

When Ye Futian heard that the other party had actually seen Thunder Punishing Skylord before, he could not help but glance over. Yet, Ye Futian was not too surprised about this. He had seen Princess Donghuang three times and had also encountered Emperor Ye Qing before. How many people could claim having done the same?

The youth’s words could scare some people, but Ye Futian was unfazed. He shifted his gaze back to the cliff face and continued to cultivate in peace.

After the various cultivators sized up the other party, they also began to train on their own. Now, cultivators were gathering in the Divine Ocean Continent. In reality, this had little to do with them. They were only here to witness the spectacle.

Ye Futian comprehended the Way on the cliff face quietly. After a long while, he even closed his eyes. In his Life Palace, an illusory figure sat cross-legged. Purple light flooded the sky, and terrifying thunder clapped. He sat alone in his Mind Palace, seemingly surrounded by countless illusory figures. Each figure was showing a different pose. Their war axes cleaved out, causing the space to look like the apocolypse. Each will of the war ax was frightening beyond comparison.

At that moment, Ye Futian seemed to transcend space and time. He traveled back into the past and personally witnessed Thunder Punishing Skylord cultivating his ax technique.

All these scenes appeared in this space.

Each ax swing contained extraordinary will and seemed very natural. They became one with the Great Path. Yet, Ye Futian could not completely comprehend it, no matter how he tried.

“Uncle Beigong, Little Shuang. Both of you should sense this,” Ye Futian said. When the two of them heard him say this, they treated it seriously and quickly sat down. They knew how powerful Ye Futian’s comprehension was. Before this, on Eastern Deity Island, Ye Futian had helped them comprehend.

They also cultivated the power of the Great Path of Thunder. Ye Futian could help them out effectively.

Light radiated from Ye Futian’s glabella. It was as though scenes were directly transmitted into Beigong Ao and Beigong Shuang’s minds, allowing the two of them to comprehend together with him.

The two of them closed their eyes as they received the images sent over by Ye Futian. As expected, his comprehension was more in-depth than their own. It was clear as day. It was as though they had returned to the time when Thunder Punishing Skylord was cultivating.

After a long while, Ye Futian stopped cultivating. The two of them continued comprehending on their own.

Ye Futian glanced over at the drawings on the surrounding cliff faces. He looked at the markings. There seemed to be many ax marks that were one with the cliff face, as though they were carved by the simplest ax swing. These marks did not contain any will, only leaving behind marks. Many marks contained the will of the Great Path. All this seemed very erratic. Ye Futian could not make out the true meaning of Thunder Punishing Skylord carving these marks.

Right then, the Renhuang from the Donghua Heavens said, “Thunder Punishing Skylord comprehended his Way here for decades, carving these ax techniques into the cliff face. As expected, the ax techniques are extraordinary. Each ax swing can be its own form of attack. These attacks can be combined into one complete set of ax techniques naturally. However, wanting to comprehend this set of techniques does not seem easy.”

The woman beside him looked ahead. However, she did not say anything. What she felt from the cliff face was not quite the same as what the other party sensed.

At that moment, Beigong Shuang also opened her eyes and looked at the cliff face. Her beautiful eyes looked towards Ye Futian. She asked, “Have you comprehended it?”

“Each ax technique can serve as its own attack. With enough time, I can comprehend all of them. However, I have yet to comprehend them as a whole,” Ye Futian said as he shook his head. He could not make any heads or tails of it; he did not know how to merge them perfectly.

“Hmm,” commented Beigong Shuang as she nodded. “Could it be that there is no relation between them in the first place? Maybe each form of the ax technique was simply carved by Thunder Punishing Skylord without any real thought to it? It might not even be a complete set of war ax techniques?”

When Ye Futian heard what Beigong Shuang said, a strange look flashed past through his eyes. If they did not try to make it one complete set, it was indeed explainable. However, had Thunder Punishing Skylord been simply carving when he left these drawings here?

“They do seem to be independent of each other. However, if that is the case, someone should have comprehended it already. Why is it that no one has managed to solve the secret of the cliff face?” Ye Futian asked. “Unless the rumors of the cliff face are false and that there are no secrets here… This place was just the training grounds of Thunder Punishing Skylord.”

Beigong Shuang also did not understand. She mumbled, “However, I feel that each ax technique is independent. Is it because my cultivation is too low?”

“You might be correct,” Ye Futian said with a smile. Beigong Shuang was a straightforward person. Such people would not read too deeply into situations and were not easily influenced by others. If she saw it that way, that was what she believed.

She might be wrong and be unable to comprehend it because her cultivation was too low. Even so, that was her cultivation path.

“How true is the rumor that Thunder Punishing Skylord left a treasure in the cliff face?” Ye Futian asked Lin Yuan, who was behind him.

Lin Yuan was a cultivator from the Divine Ocean Continent. He should be more familiar with this.

“There are many rumors regarding this in the Divine Ocean. Over time, most people were willing to believe it was true,” Lin Yuan replied with a smile. “However, I am not too sure on whether or not it is true. It might be that what this senior female Renhuang said is true. Thunder Punishing Skylord might have simply carved all this when he was cultivating here and comprehending his Way for decades. It is hard to say.”

“She is wrong,” a voice stated. Lin Yuan looked ahead. The person who had spoken was the Renhuang who claimed to have seen Thunder Punishing Skylord before. He stood before the cliff face with his back towards Ye Futian’s group. He said, “Thunder Punishing Skylord left behind these drawings of ax techniques. They are a complete set. It is difficult to comprehend. Since you cannot comprehend it, don’t draw conclusions so easily. Based on my knowledge, the rumor that Thunder Punishing Skylord left behind a treasure here is true.”

When the crowd heard him say this, they acknowledged his view. This person had an extraordinary temperament and very powerful cultivation. He had also seen Thunder Punishing Skylord before. What he said should be true.

“Senior, what you said is also reasonable. It might be the case,” answered Lin Yuan. With his level of cultivation, he would not dispute the other party. He was not qualified to do so.

“Not just might. It is the case,” the youth continued. Just a while ago, he had told the woman beside him this. These ax techniques were one complete set. However, Beigong Shuang and the others claimed it to be otherwise.

“Have you comprehended it?” Beigong Shuang asked as he looked at the other party’s silhouette.

“How could the teachings of the Skylord be so easily comprehended?” the other party replied.

“Since you have yet to comprehend it, how are you so certain that I am wrong?” Beigong Shuang retorted. Her tone was very calm. She was not intentionally trying to argue with him. Since the other party had yet to comprehend it, there was still a possibility for her to be correct. She just found it strange that the other party had come to this conclusion.

If the other party actually explained his reasoning, she would naturally accept it humbly.

The other party turned his head around for the first time. He looked at Beigong Shuang and said with a smile, “Thunder Punishing Skylord once had a treasure. However, after he broke through to the next Plane, he never used it again. The last time when he came to my manor, a senior of my clan brought this up with Thunder Punishing Skylord. Thunder Punishing Skylord claimed that after comprehending his Way for decades, he did not need it anymore. If so, where is that treasure now?”

Beigong Shuang nodded her head. That meant to say that there was indeed the possibility that there was a treasure hidden here.

“Since no one has destroyed the cliff face, that means that it cannot be destroyed. How could these drawings simply be carved by Thunder Punishing Skylord?” the other party continued his line of reasoning.

Beigong Shuang nodded her head and said, “What you say is not without reason, but still does not explain everything.”

The other party was stunned. He gave Beigong Shuang a strange look. He thought that Beigong Shuang was intentionally arguing with him.

“With your level of cultivation, you are not yet qualified to discuss the Way with me. If I say you are wrong, you are wrong,” he said indifferently. His tone also seemed colder. He glanced over at Ye Futian’s group. These people were probably from a large force. However, he was not too concerned.

In the Donghua Domain, there were few forces whom he could not afford to offend.

Beigong Shuang was stunned. She stopped talking and did not continue to argue with him. She seemed to understand the attitude of the other party. She also did not want to stir up trouble.

Beigong Ao gave the other party an intense gaze. However, he also did not cause a scene. He had followed Ye Futian here; he naturally would not cause trouble for Ye Futian.

“Seniors, it is but a different understanding of the Way and a difference in opinions. Why must we get so worked up over it?” Lin Yuan could not help but say when he saw the atmosphere turn somewhat awkward.

The other party swept a glance at him. With just a glance, he seemed to penetrate Lin Yuan’s eyes, causing Lin Yuan to feel as though a terrifying power had descended upon him.
