Chapter 2607: The Devil Emperor

As Ye Futian continued toward the sky above the Devil Imperial Palace, the terrifying coercion above the sky became more and more frightening, suppressing his body and soul.

The suppression was making him extremely uncomfortable. The people in the Devil Imperial Palace had long been accustomed to this particular type of suppression, but it was the first time for him at the Devil Imperial Palace. Fortunately, both his physical body and spiritual soul were powerful enough that he was not affected too much.

Just as Ye Futian continued to walk up, a figure in black appeared above him. This man’s eyes were terrifying. At first glance, Ye Futian could feel that monstrous demonic might. It was as if the entire world had transformed into the power of the demonic way.

He stopped involuntarily as he raised his head to look up at the figure above the firmament.

“Demon Sage!” Below the Devil Imperial Palace, many people bowed and worshipped, looking with reverence at the man who had appeared.

The three Great Demon Sages in the Devil Imperial Palace were known to be incredibly tyrannical. Their strength was above that of the Protectors, and they were in fact, the Devil Emperor’s right-hand men. Besides the Devil Emperor, the three Great Demon Sages were the highest commanders of the Devil World. Despite the fact that there were hidden cultivators of supreme prowess, these cultivators were not usually in control of the daily affairs in the Devil World.

The Demon Sage who appeared looked down to scrutinize Ye Futian’s presence. His eyes were as overpowering as his stalwart physique; it was as if he possessed infinite power.

“Earth Demon Sage!” This Demon Sage in black ranked last among all three of the Great Demon Sages and was named the Earth Demon Sage. However, even as the weakest Demon Sage of the three, his strength was considerably horrific.

The Earth Demon Sage was once a disciple of the Devil Emperor as well. He had followed the Devil Emperor in many conquests over the years, and there was blood on his hands. The Devil Emperor had always favored and valued this particular disciple of his, keeping him close by his side in cultivation.

Even with other foreign conquests, he had always dispatched the other Demon Sages and kept Earth Demon Sage by his side.

Just standing there, it was enough for Ye Futian to feel a great sense of pressure.

At this moment, the Earth Demon Sage violently stomped towards the space below, and a monstrous divine power immediately blasted down and slammed on Ye Futian. Accompanied by a loud boom, Ye Futian was knocked down by the shockwaves.

“What a powerful force.” Ye Futian stopped his downward momentum and looked up at the Earth Demon Sage in the void. This force was filled with unimaginable aggression.

The divine light of the Great Path circulated around his body, and Ye Futian’s physical body was comparable to that of a divine body, emitting extreme brilliance Once again, he resumed his course towards the sky above.

Bang! The Earth Demon Sage stomped again in the void, and as his footstep landed, it was as if he had stepped directly on Ye Futian. Ye Futian felt as if there was a great piece of earth lying right on top of him, hindering his movement so that he was unable to take another step forward.

Ye Futian raised his arm and blasted a punch toward the void. The divine light radiated as that punch shattered the void, blasting above that invisible power, and causing a dull and violent thud above the firmament. Even the space shuddered violently.

Buzz! After Ye Futian repelled that force, his figure flashed away. He disappeared directly from where he was and reappeared in front of the Earth Demon Sage. He raised his hand to attack with one finger. As soon as this finger fell, the Sword Will menaced in the space to tear everything apart.

The Earth Demon Sage stared at him without wavering and raised his hand to launch a counterstrike that blocked the attack from that one finger. The two were now engaged in close-quarter combat.

In an instant, the terrifying storm of devastating sword qi covered the body of the Earth Demon Sage as the incomparable sword will attacked his body; it was the kind of attack sufficient to destroy powerful existence such as the Mountain Master of Celestial Worthy Mountain. However, this terrifying attack landed on his opponent’s body but did not manage to move the Earth Demon Sage one bit.

That unparalleled strength even repelled Ye Futian and forced him back.

The cultivators inside the Devil Imperial Palace watched everything calmly. This was the Earth Demon Sage. Did Ye Futian think he could break through his defense?

Although the Earth Demon Sage ranked last among all three of the Great Demon Sages, he was extremely powerful in his own right. By physical strength alone, even the other two Demon Sages may not be able to best him.

The Devil Emperor had unprecedented talent and had created many demonic methods by himself. Because he taught in accordance with the aptitudes of his disciples, he tailored his teachings based on the talent specific to each demonic cultivator differently. The Earth Demon Sage was a disciple that the Devil Emperor favored very much, and had spent a lot of time cultivating him carefully. The Devil Emperor had guided him to create an indestructible demonic body. Under the Great Emperor, not many could shatter this demonic body of his.

Ye Futian wanted to walk over the Earth Demon Sage, it was easier said than done.

At this time, Ye Futian clearly felt the physical force wielded by the Earth Demon Sage as well, and it was the strongest physical body he had encountered so far. Of course, his strength was also unquestionable. After all, there were not many giant figureheads who had fought against him.

An even stronger aura exploded from Ye Futian as the divine light circulated inside his body. A destructive power permeated from him, destroying everything.

For a moment, Ye Futian was standing in the void like some descendant of the gods, as his light showered all over this world.

The Earth Demon Sage looked down and didn’t seem any different. He stomped again violently, rocking the void. But at this same moment, a wave of supreme heavenly might came over the Devil Imperial Palace, which surprised the Earth Demon Sage. He then retracted his aura and became subdued immediately.

“Let him through!” After the heavenly might fell, a voice was heard in a commanding tone. Suddenly, everyone in the Devil Imperial Palace became extremely pious, as they began to bow in worship.

This was the voice of the Devil Emperor.

The Earth Demon Sage looked very respectful, and stepped aside, like a well-behaved disciple. The domineering spirit that he had exhibited just now was nowhere to be found.

“Bring him here,” the voice commanded once again.

“Yes, Master,” the Earth Demon Sage replied and glanced at Ye Futian with his pitch-black eyes, then turned to walk away.

Ye Futian took a deep breath, then followed Earth Demon Sage moving forward. They continued to move diagonally, all the way upward.

As they made their way up, there was already a patch of dark demonic cloud tossing about. However, this demonic cloud was not too heavy, and they had not yet arrived at the Demon God Palace that was towering into the clouds. It seemed closer than it actually was.

They shuttled inside the Devil Imperial Palace, passing through many places until they entered the sky above that was surrounded by demonic clouds. It was then that they saw a Demon God Palace above the demonic clouds. And above the Demon God Palace, that devastating Devil Abyss hovered. The coercion from it made Ye Futian feel difficult to breathe.

A series of pitch-black lightning and devastating storms gestated continuously and fell upon the Demon God Palace. It was hard to imagine that the Devil Emperor could be cultivating in such a harsh environment. It seemed to confirm what the outsiders had always believed, that the Devil Emperor had suppressed the Devil Abyss under his own power and took charge of the entire Devil World.

The Earth Demon Sage and Ye Futian landed on the ground as if they were stepping on demonic clouds. In front of them, there were stone pillars that traversed into the firmament, extremely dark with demonic light lingering about them. There was also a vast cultivation court that was behind the Demon God Palace along with many buildings.

That was where the Devil Emperor preached and taught his disciples.

The Earth Demon Sage stood at the bottom of the stairs, bowing and saluting.

When Ye Futian saw this, he, too, bowed. “Ye Futian of the Original Realm greets the Demon Emperor.”

A wave of demonic might descended, like a real heavenly might, and Ye Futian found it difficult to move his body. No matter how strong his cultivation was, at this moment, the Devil Emperor who was standing in front of him was an existence at the top of the world.

In front of characters like this, he was no more than an insect.

“You come from the Original Realm and trespass on the land of the Devil Imperial Palace. You are very reckless. Aren’t you afraid of dying?” An authoritative voice came from inside the Demon God Palace. Ye Futian had, in fact, risked his own life by coming to the Devil Imperial Palace. If the Devil Emperor changed his mind, he may very well perish here.

“Your Majesty the Devil Emperor is known throughout the world. Would he, who had unified the Devil Realm and held up the nine heavens, kill me so needlessly? Furthermore, I came to the Devil Imperial Palace to present a gift,” said Ye Futian.

“What kind of gift?” the Devil Emperor asked.

“The Original Realm,” Ye Futian replied. “If Your Majesty wants the Original Realm, I am willing to work with the Devil World to unify the Original Realm and yield its main control to the Devil World.”

As soon as his voice fell, there was a moment of silence in the Demon God Palace. It seemed that Ye Futian’s words had surprised everyone.

“Why?” After a moment of silence, the voice piped up again, sounded a little puzzled.

“After I came to the Devil World, I discovered that all the cultivators of the Devil World were extremely respectful of Your Majesty. Your Majesty had suppressed the Devil Abyss on behalf of everyone in the Devil World. If your Majesty were to rule the Original Realm, the land of the Original Realm would also belong to Your Majesty, which no doubt, Your Majesty will treat all beings in the Original Realm the same way.”

“Previously when I took over the Original Realm and expel the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture, I was hoping to spare the people of the Original Realm from the disturbance of the chaotic world, so that they can cultivate freely, and promote the culture of martial arts. Even if the Devil World rules the Original Realm, the same end could be achieved for the Original Realm, and its chaotic situation could be resolved,” Ye Futian responded.

There was another silence.

Then, the doors to the Demon God Palace opened, and on that deep throne inside Demon God Palace, a figure that seemed to be sitting there was slowly moving toward him.

A monstrous demonic might enveloped his body. Ye Futian bowed his head and did not look around. In his perception, that demonic shadow was massive and tremendous, a real demon god. He felt his breathing quicken. When the other man walked outside, the demonic might that was pressing down on him was getting stronger as well.

“What did he teach you?” A cold and domineering voice came from inside, which compelled Ye Futian’s heart to beat wildly.

“Who?” Ye Futian said.

“You know who!” the Devil Emperor continued. Suddenly, Ye Futian knew who the Devil Emperor was referring to.

His foster father.

Only his foster father was the link between him and the Devil Emperor.

“My foster father didn’t teach me anything,” Ye Futian said.

“I can see that you did not cultivate in demonic methods, so he can’t really teach you anything.” The Devil Emperor had walked out of the Demon God Palace and stood in front of the hall. Ye Futian raised his head slightly to look at the Devil Emperor. He took a deep breath and his heart was greatly shocked.

The man in front of him was dressed simply, and his appearance was not outstanding in any way. However, just by standing there, he was like the ruler of heaven and earth, and that everyone in the world could only look up in worship, and dared not look at him directly; this was the powerful presence of the Devil Emperor.

Ye Futian had never seen anyone with such a powerful presence. He did not release any aura outward, but one could feel the oppression tangibly. This was the oppression from the demon god.

Moreover, he had seen the Devil Emperor once. At the time, he was an old man who was sitting opposite him and eating noodles on the Demon Tower. There was nothing detectable from him as if he was some common person without cultivation.

But at this moment, he was the most aggressive and domineering demon lord in the world.

“Did he ever tell you who you really are?” the Devil Emperor asked, staring at Ye Futian!
