“If you say that the various forces of the Divine Prefecture are one, Ye Futian now controls the cultivation court of the Great Emperor of the Ziwei Segmentum. Since that is the case, let him completely open up the cultivation court for the members of the Divine Prefecture to cultivate in,” a voice cried out right then. This voice contained some sharp aura. It was Swordmaster of Taichu.

Swordmaster of Taichu’s gaze was as sharp as a sword as he stared in Ye Futian’s direction. He continued saying, “Aside from that, Ye Futian should share the secrets of the divine corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor, as well as the teachings of Great Emperor Ziwei, with the other cultivators of the Divine Prefecture. That way, the abilities of the various forces of the Divine Prefecture can be improved.”

When Gai Cang and the others heard Swordmaster of Taichu’s words, they immediately responded, “That’s right. If Ye Futian can do so, then from this day forth, the various forces of the Divine Prefecture will be as one, and there will no longer be any conflict. We will immediately fall back. If anyone from the outside world plans to go against him, the forces of the Divine Prefecture will certainly not stand by and watch.”

“Such perverted logic,” Emperor Xi said as he looked up at them. He said, “Don’t you think this request is too preposterous?”

“You said that the forces of the Divine Prefecture should all be in the same camp. Now, when I offer such a suggestion, you claim it is preposterous. If that is the case, why can’t we go against him?” Swordmaster of Taichu continued, “Each force is independent. We ourselves wish to seize the power of the teachings of the Great Emperor. It is unrelated to the other forces, and we have not allied with cultivators from the outside world. It just so happened that our goals are aligned.”

The Holy Land of Taichu was the top cultivation holy land of the Taichu Domain. This force stood above the Taichu Domain Chief Manor as the symbol of the domain. Even if Donghuang the Great were unsatisfied with them, he would not do anything. He would not act upon the Holy Land of Taichu.

Wouldn’t that be shooting himself in the foot?

The Swordmaster of Taichu stepped forward and came down. He said, “Since all of you believe that we have colluded with cultivators from the outside world, then, may we trouble you to help us keep them at bay? Regarding the issue with Ye Futian, the forces of the Divine Prefecture will settle the score with him ourselves. As for whether the cultivators from the outside can take action or not, that is not something we can control. Sorry to trouble the members of the Taishang Domain over this matter.”

As he said this, his gaze became sharper and brighter as he continued walking downwards. In an instant, an ear-piercing hum of swords filled the space as though tens of thousands of swords were resonating. In the surrounding space, an astonishing storm instantly swept up. He said, “To prevent trouble afterward, why don’t we all make a deal? We will share the teachings inherited by Ye Futian with anyone who attacks him and helps us. How about it?”

Buzz. An astonishing Sword Will descended from his figure like a sword river; it was terrifying. The surrounding cultivators retreated backward as though the residual power from his swordsmanship was enough to kill them.

Swordmaster of Taichu believed in human nature. Here, they were definitely not the only ones who coveted the teachings of Great Emperor Ziwei and the inherited power of Shenjia the Great Emperor. Many others had the same idea as them. It was just that the others were hesitating and did not dare to take action. If that were the case, he would lead the charge.

“Charge!” he cried out.

Immediately, the sword river descended from above as fast as lightning. At the center of the sword river, a gigantic divine sword appeared. It seemed to be formed from the Sword Qi that had gathered and had the power to rip apart the space. It pierced straight towards Ye Futian; its might was shocking.

In an instant, the various cultivators spread out. They stood far away in different locations. The divine sword came slashing down, splitting apart and destroying everything in its path.

At that moment, the Supreme Elder of Ziwei Imperial Palace, Renhuang Chen, wielded a scepter in his hand and pointed it at the sky. A defense shroud of starlight immediately surrounded their figures. In an instant, it was as though actual stars were circling them.

The astonishing divine sword slashed down on them, gradually piercing the shroud of starlight. Cracks appeared on the shroud, but the divine sword still could not shatter it.

Renhuang Chen held the scepter in his hand, and divine light constantly surged towards the shroud of starlight. The sword river actually swarmed down over the frightening shroud. The surrounding space around the vast Heavenly Mandate Academy was instantly flattened and reduced to ruins. Menacing sword slashes covered the region.

“Huh?” Swordmaster of Taichu frowned. As expected, there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Ziwei Segmentum. He never imagined that aside from the Palace Lord who had been killed, there were actually such incredible figures. His sword actually could not break through this person’s defenses.

“Are all of you truly not planning to act?” questioned Swordmaster of Taichu loudly. Immediately the top figures from the Original Realm, who had grudges against Ye Futian, stepped out one by one. However, none of them had cultivation who could beat Renhuang Chen. Most likely, even if they all attacked together, they would not be able to break through Renhuang Chen’s star domain.

Right then, another cultivator stepped forward. This person had an astonishing aura. He was the clan leader of the Mo clan. When they saw him, many people revealed strange expressions. Just as Duan Tianxiong had told Ye Futian prior, the top forces that had come over from the Original Realm 20 years ago were all superpowers in the Divine Prefecture. For instance, the Holy Land of Taichu ruled over the Taichu Domain and had many cultivators among their ranks.

It was the same for the Mo clan. They were also a terrifying force. Rich power surged from the figure of this cultivator from the Mo clan. It made the hearts of those who saw him tremble.

Aside from him, in another direction, the cultivators from Sun God Mountain also stepped out. Their bodies were bathed in the Divine Fire of the Sun and were extremely frightening. They had previously participated in the battle of the Original Realm 20 years ago. They also bore grudges against Ye Futian. In a moment like this, they naturally would not give up such an opportunity. It was best if they could eliminate Ye Futian here and now.

In the direction of the forces of the Divine Prefecture, a few more forces walked out. Among them, there were actually a few forces from the Shangqing Domain. These forces had vendettas against Four Corner Village. Now that Ye Futian was surrounded by other cultivators, it was a good opportunity for them to settle the score. Even if Mister in the village were to seek revenge later, he couldn’t find all who participated.

Nanhai Family, Palace of the Illusory God, and Demon Cloud all stood out. They all had deeper grudges with Ye Futian compared to the others.

Seeing top forces walk out one by one, members from the other domains of the Divine Prefecture also slowly made their way forward. The forces who were interested in the teachings of Great Emperor Ziwei stepped out. Although many cultivators from the Ziwei Segmentum, there were numerous top forces from the Divine Prefecture. They only needed a fraction of their numbers, and the other party would have a hard time standing against them.

The cultivators of the Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm observed the proceedings with looks of interest. They had initially planned to join forces with the Divine Prefecture and participate in this battle. However, with the words from the cultivators of the Divine Prefecture, it was not appropriate for their forces to be allied. The members of the Divine Prefecture were preparing to act on their own.

If that were the case, the cultivators of the Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm would stand there and watch; it would be more beneficial for them to swoop in later. This made them even more interested in the battle. They would first let the forces of the Divine Prefecture fight amongst themselves.

When Ye Futian saw the scene before him, he said to the various cultivators in the sky, “What I said before this still holds—anyone willing to aid me today, the door to the cultivation court of Great Emperor Ziwei will forever be open to you. As long as you can communicate with the power of the Imperial Star, you will be able to inherit the will contained within.”
