The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2023 - Rise to Fame


Chapter 2023: Rise to Fame

Kong Xiao left before other people could come to their senses. All they saw was his receding figure.

There was no doubt that Kong Xiao lost this fight. Not only did he lose, but he was also completely won over. People could interpret his last words in many different ways.

Who in Donghua could compete with him when he reached his ultimate height?

By “high,” did he mean a super-powerful master cultivator or to become a high-level Renhuang?

And was he referring to the Donghua Academy or the entire Donghua Domain?

No one could know for sure. But it was safe to assume that a high-level Renhuang would be the best of the Donghua Academy and that a powerful master cultivator would dominate the Donghua Domain. Either way, it was high praise.

Apparently, Kong Xiao had been holding Ye Futian in high regard because of the fight. He believed that hardly anyone could be a match for Ye Futian in the Donghua Academy or even the Donghua Domain.

The crowd wouldn’t be so impressed if a random person sang Ye Futian’s praises. But Kong Xiao was a top-ranking cultivator of the Donghua Academy and a high-level Renhuang in the fifth-order with a perfect Divine Wheel who would certainly become an overlord in the future. So many people at present already admired him.

Since such a person commented on Ye Futian after fighting against him, people had to take him seriously and took another look at Ye Futian.

Although they watched the fight from start to finish, they definitely didn’t catch every single detail as Kong Xiao had. After all, all the attacks were targeting Kong Xiao, and he was the one who faced the Great Path domain. No one had a more vivid experience than Kong Xiao. The difficulty with the last strike, in particular, could never be understood by an outsider.

No one could deny Kong Xiao’s strength; his last strike was especially earth-shattering. The blue divine light could attack enemies who were thousands of miles away instantly, yet it was obstructed and reduced in such a short distance. Kong Xiao bore too many kinds of power at that moment, including the elemental power of the Great Path, the Great Path domain, and the attack itself.

After that strike, Kong Xiao realized that Ye Futian was a genius who had more than one Divine Wheel of the Great Path. Talented cultivators might cultivate multiple types of Divine Wheels of the Great Path, but not every one of them could be as strong. Besides, the Divine Wheel of the Great Path itself could be placed on different levels. Cultivators, usually, would choose to focus on the stronger one.

Ye Futian had priorities as well, of course. Even so, Ye Futian’s weakest Divine Wheel of the Great Path was at the fifth level and made the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels emit five wheels of divine light. He displayed more and more stunning strength as if it was inexhaustible. That was what made Kong Xiao feel afraid. From what he could see, it was definitely at the sixth order level, no less than Ning Hua.

Moreover, Ye Futian was only a Renhuang at the fourth-order. How powerful could he be in the future?

That was why Kong Xiao dropped that line and left, entirely convinced. It was in no way an easy thing to make a man like Kong Xiao bow his head.

The crowd stared at Ye Futian with different thoughts running in their minds. But one thing they all understood was that Ye Futian’s talents and innate abilities were much higher than the majority of the genius cultivators. He was one of the best and could compete against Desolation, Jiang Yueli, and Zong Chan.

Kong Xiao even thought that he could be in the same league as Ning Hua.

They never thought that such an extraordinary person would be nameless in the past. This cultivator from the Eastern Deity Island suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Ling He and the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family cultivators all stared at Ye Futian with a fierce look.

They couldn’t tolerate Ye Futian any longer.

He is courting death, Yan Hanxing of the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family thought to himself. He glared at Ye Futian as if he was a dead man walking. He might give Ye Futian a chance to live if he was a less capable cultivator and didn’t show off his remarkable talents.

And now, the more outstanding Ye Futian seemed to be, the closer he was to his demise.

Ling He would never allow him to live.

Even Desolation in the Desolate God Palace was looking at Ye Futian more seriously now. While they were marching to the top of the world, marvelous youngsters were following closely behind. They should wait and see who would dominate the Donghua Domain in the future.

Ning Hua… What level was he?

Jiang Yueli was also turning it over in her mind. It seemed that her speculation was right. Ye Futian didn’t display his full strength during his fight with Ling He. He was obviously more powerful when fighting against Kong Xiao today.

As though his strength could grow to meet his opponent.

Then, where was his limit?

She darted a glance at the Wangshen Watchtower where Li Changsheng and Zong Chan were. They were even more formidable now that Ye Futian had joined them. Nevertheless, the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family probably wouldn’t let Ye Futian off so easily. After all, everyone in the Donghua Domain knew about their feud with the Eastern Deity Island.

“Renhuang Ye showed off another Divine Wheel of the Great Path during this battle. It might surpass five wheels of divine light if tested before the Divine Mirror of Heavenly Wheels. Why don’t you have a try?” a voice said. It was Ling He from the Lingxiao Palace. It seemed that he had attempted multiple times to ask Ye Futian to reveal his ability.

People who were not in the know thought that Ling He was genuinely impressed by Ye Futian.

Qin Qing shot a glance at Ling He. She was a little surprised. Even though she already learned that Ling He was only trying to ruin Ye Futian by lauding him to the skies when they were at Turtle Deity Island before, she didn’t believe that Ling He had to do it so conspicuously. It was beneath him. After all, he was the young master of the Lingxiao Palace rather than ordinary folk. He didn’t have to behave like this.

So why on earth did he do it?

Was it simply because he hated Ye Futian and wanted to heap excessive praises on him to instigate the Great Yan Ancient Royal Family to take on Ye Futian?

Ye Futian detested Ling He and looked away after a glance. Then, he turned to Donghua Academy’s cultivators and said, “Donghua Academy is indeed the best holy land for cultivation. I only won by chance. Brother Kong is an extraordinary man. His blue divine light is enough to smash the sky. I would have lost if I didn’t do my best. I learned a lot from this match. Thank you very much.”

Even though Ye Futian won the fight, his humble words saved the face of the Donghua Academy. Besides, Kong Xiao was indeed a remarkable fighter, and it was not easy to defeat him. Any other person might be lost under the Divine Eyes of Peacock. The blue divine light contained destructive will might and could kill Ye Futian with one strike. Ye Futian exerted quite some strength to obstruct it and win against Kong Xiao.

“Renhuang Ye, you’re too modest. Kong Xiao is at an advantage in terms of cultivation level. It seems that no one at your cultivation level from the Donghua Academy could be a match for you,” Liu Qingzhu said with a smile. Since Kong Xiao had lost, Donghua Academy had no intention to continue the path seeking.

It would be inappropriate for them to send out Renhuangs who were beyond the sixth order.

Ye Futian bowed slightly and returned to Wangshen Watchtower at the ancient peak.

“We learned a great deal from our visit to the Donghua Academy this time. Thank you very much for hosting us,” Li Changsheng bowed in the direction of the cultivators of Donghua Academy and said, “We won’t bother you any longer. Goodbye.”

After all, this was the territory of the Donghua Academy. Even though it had secret zones for cultivation, Li Changsheng and his people couldn’t get there. Ye Futian was forced to reveal his ability at the Path Seeking Peak. They should take their leave sooner than later.

“Alright.” Liu Qingzhu didn’t object. He nodded and said, “We wish you a good trip in the Donghua Heavens. Qinghan, send them out.”

“Yes.” Leng Qinghan nodded and led Ye Futian and the others out. She was the one who brought them to the academy. After watching everything that had happened since then, she was deeply shocked and rattled.

She would never expect Ye Futian to be so powerful that he defeated even Kong Xiao. It looked like Leng Yan was right after all. She underestimated Ye Futian’s ability.

On the other side of the ancient peak, the cultivators from the Divine Palace of Fluttering Snow also bid goodbye. The crowd dispersed after that, and people left the Donghua Academy one after another.

While walking, Ye Futian heard a voice from behind, “Renhuang Ye, please wait for a moment.”

Ye Futian turned around and saw Jiang Yueli. He said, “What can I do for you?”

“Nothing. I’m just curious and would like to ask you what kind of power of the Great Path the Moon Wheel contains,” said Jiang Yueli. She was at a similar level as Ye Futian, yet she could sense that Ye Futian had a superior path. Even though she had never experienced it directly, she had a vague suspicion.

“The Power of Yin,” Ye Futian replied. He assumed that many people had recognized it.

“Thank you.” Jiang Yueli nodded. It was what she expected.

“You’re welcome,” said Ye Futian.

“Renhuang Ye, you mastered the Power of Yin, learned alchemy from Eastern Deity Island, and were instructed by the Millet Emperor. Adding to your cultivation effort, you must have a boundless future ahead of you. The Donghua Domain will have another master cultivator,” said Jiang Yueli.

Donghua Domain? Ye Futian thought to himself. He needed to get in the Domain Chief’s Manor’s first. Only then could he be counted as a cultivator of the Donghua Domain.

They parted ways after that. Ye Futian and the others returned to the Leng Family, while more and more cultivators arrived at the Donghua Heavens.

The incidents that happened in Donghua Academy spread quickly. The name “Ye Liunian” was on everyone’s lips.
