Chapter 2583: Expedition
Ye Futian’s figure descended over the Heavenly Mandate Academy. Everyone in Heavenly Mandate City was thrilled. Ever since Ye Futian and the others left back then, the Heavenly Mandate Academy had become history. The Heavenly Mandate Realm had also been destroyed. In the several decades that followed, the realm was in a constant decline.
It was not just the Heavenly Mandate Realm. The 3,000 Realms of the Great Path of the Original Realm were picked clean. Anywhere with resources was plundered by the cultivators of the various worlds.
The 3,000 Realms of the Great Path were no longer the center of the Original Realm but had become old abandoned lands.
They never imagined that the once ruler of the Original Realm would return.
Ye Futian unleashed his spiritual will and enveloped the vast space. Jian Ao and the others were even more terrified. However, they did not dare to move as their expressions turned pale.
How was it that Ye Futian dared to return?
“Decades ago, the Heavenly Mandate Academy taught the Way in the Heavenly Mandate Realm and ruled over the lands of the Nine Realms. However, it was invaded by outsiders. Today, I wish to rebuild the Heavenly Mandate Academy,” declared Ye Futian in a loud voice as he glanced around at the crowd. “Although Donghuang Imperial Palace was previously displeased with me, I still agree with the way Donghuang the Great teaches the Way. Regardless of his stance, I am still willing to uphold the will of Donghuang the Great now and in the future and teach the Way in the Original Realm. The 3,000 Realms of the Great Path was previously the cultivation court for people from all walks of life in the Original Realm. Now it has been devastated. Yet, from this day forth, the Heavenly Mandate Academy will once again rule over the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. Any cultivator who cultivates in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path must obey the will of the Heavenly Mandate Academy.”
The Heavenly Mandate Academy had returned to rule over the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.
All the cultivators in the Heavenly Mandate Realm were astonished. Ye Futian had such lofty ambition. Currently, the Original Realm was in chaos. Although the cultivators from the top forces of the various worlds were not currently in the Nine Realms, some of their remaining forces were still here. The 3,000 Realms of the Great Path had long been taken over. Could Ye Futian seize control again?
How would he make the cultivators from the other worlds yield and submit?
“Ye Futian,” someone called out. As expected, a person dressed in black robes emerged. Although the person’s aura was not very strong, he had an eerie vibe. He was a cultivator of the Dark World. Back in the day, he had followed the forces of the Dark World during their invasion. Now, he acted as though he owned the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.
The person stood there and asked loudly, “The 3,000 Realms of the Great Path has long been a chaotic place. It does not belong to any person or force. Even Donghuang the Great has no right to rule over it. It is also the same for the entire Original Realm. How do you plan to rule the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path?”
Ye Futian wanted to rule over the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path? He surely had huge ambitions if he wanted to reinstate order here.
Ye Futian swept a glance at the other party and did not respond. He said, “Currently, the Original Realm has changed drastically and is chaotic and lawless. As a member of the Original Realm, I am willing to restore order to the Original Realm, not just the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.”
He used this opportunity to let the world know that the Ziwei Segmentum would restore order to the Original Realm, not just the Heavenly Mandate Realm or the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.
They would do so for the entire Original Realm.
“Preposterous,” another cultivator from the Dark World said. “You actually dare to claim that you will achieve something that even Donghuang Imperial Palace has failed to do.”
“Even if I do not manage to do so, I will strive to achieve it,” Ye Futian replied.
Just then, beside Ye Futian, Hua Jieyu glanced at that person. With just a glance, that person felt as though her eyes had pierced directly into his soul. Terrifying will invaded his mind, and many pictures appeared within his head.
“You have killed innocent people in the Original Realm. You deserve death,” said Hua Jieyu. As she said this, the figure of the cultivator from the Dark World immediately exploded, and he perished.
For a moment, the surrounding space became exceptionally quiet. The cultivators from the Dark World were all silenced.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm were admiring that beautiful figure. She was very beautiful, yet very cold.
“The position of College Chief of the Heavenly Mandate Academy will be held by Gu Dongliu, the Lord of the Ziwei Segmentum Heavenly Mandate Palace. He will oversee order in the Heavenly Mandate Realm as well as the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path,” continued Ye Futian. It was as though he had not seen Hua Jieyu’s actions.
After his Third Older Brother broke through to the Tribulation Plane, Ye Futian allowed Hua Jieyu to step down. Gu Dongliu replaced her as Lord of the Heavenly Mandate Palace. With Second Older Sister as his support, they would be together as husband and wife.
As for Hua Jieyu, she would no longer need to hold any positions. With her status, she did not need any positions.
Ye Futian continued, “When the Heavenly Mandate Academy is rebuilt, the academy will accept disciples from the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. Next, the Heavenly Mandate Academy will establish teleportation grand matrices linking it with the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. The realms will be linked together and become one, allowing for easy access between all realms.” All the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm were emotional when they heard this.
The Heavenly Mandate Academy would teach the Way, and the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path would become one.
One could foresee the trend of martial arts starting up again in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.
“Third Older Brother, I will leave the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path to you,” Ye Futian said to Gu Dongliu.
Gu Dongliu nodded his head as his figure floated in the air. He swept a gaze towards Jian Ao and the others. A terrifying aura pressed down across the space, causing Jian Ao’s group to shudder.
“Jian Ao, the Heavenly Mandate Academy had once spared your lives. Yet, when we were faced with a crisis, your lot immediately betrayed us. You deserve death,” declared Gu Dongliu. Jian Ao’s expression changed drastically. A terrifying aura pressed down on him, making it hard for him to remain standing. He wanted to flee, but he discovered that he could not move at all.
How could Gu Dongliu be this powerful? Jian Ao’s group thought to themselves as their hearts beat wildly. What level was Gu Dongliu’s ability at?
With Jian Ao’s cultivation, he once stood at the peak of the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. Yet, before the pressure Gu Dongliu exerted, it was as though Jian Ao could not resist at all.
After several decades, had Gu Dongliu already become so powerful?
Other junior figures, such as Xiao Muyu and Dou Zhao, all had frightening auras. None of them were inferior to Jian Ao. Could it be that Jian Ao had truly made the wrong move?
Back then, he had always wanted to return to the Divine Prefecture. He wanted to pave the way for his junior, Jian Qingzhu. However, he realized that in the Original Realm, all those who followed Ye Futian were already so powerful. If he had stayed with Ye Futian back then, how would he be now?
He did not manage to think much. Gu Dongliu’s palm struck down on where he stood. Immediately, the place where he stood was swept over by swords. His body could not move at all. Beams of sword light directly penetrated his figure.
He revealed a look of absolute terror. With great difficulty, he lowered his head and inspected himself. He was not the only one who had been pierced through the heart by tens of thousands of swords. In the area around where he stood, the cultivators of the Original Realm who had followed him in betraying Ye Futian all met the same fate.
“Die!” uttered Gu Dongliu.
As he said this, the various cultivators were immediately massacred by Sword Will and were reduced to dust, which dissipated.
The once College Chief of Tianshen Academy and a figure who stood at the top of the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path had perished just like that. He had been immediately killed off.
When the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm saw this scene, all of them felt their hearts throbbing. They were naturally aware of who Jian Ao was. He was a super cultivator, renowned in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path for many years. A top figure like him had actually been easily killed off by Gu Dongliu.
How powerful was Gu Dongliu now?
On that note, how powerful was Ye Futian currently?
Before this, the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm had all been wondering about this. Back during the war, Ye Futian and the forces of the Heavenly Mandate Academy had been forced to abandon the Heavenly Mandate Realm. Now that they had returned, were they powerful enough? Did they have the confidence to deal with the various cultivators of the Divine Prefecture?
After Gu Dongliu killed Jian Ao, he said, “The members of the Heavenly Mandate Palace will hold the fort in the Heavenly Mandate Academy as we restore order in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path.”
“Yes, Lord,” replied the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Palace as they bowed slightly. Back when the four palaces were established, the Heavenly Mandate Palace mainly consisted of the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, such as Lord Taixuan, Emperor Nan, and other members. Such a force was already very powerful.
“Lord Chen, you will remain in the Heavenly Mandate Realm to hold the fort until the Heavenly Mandate Academy establishes the matrices,” Ye Futian instructed Lord Chen. Lord Chen nodded and replied, “Rest assured, Palace Lord. I will hold the fort here with Dongliu.”
“I will leave it to you,” said Ye Futian. He then looked at the people around him and said, “Lord Murong and Lord Mu will watch over the Ziwei Segmentum while Third Older Brother and Lord Chen hold the fort here. Senior Emperor Xi, Uncle Tie, and Chen Yi, please follow me.”
“Yes, Palace Lord,” they answered as they nodded their heads and received their orders. They naturally knew where Ye Futian was leading them.
They would leave the rebuilding of the Heavenly Mandate Realm to Gu Dongliu and the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Palace. As for them, they naturally had a score to settle with the other forces from the war.
First were the six major Ancient God Clans. They needed to sever the connection between the six major Ancient God Clans and the Original Realm and deprive them of everything they had here.
“Palace Lord, be careful,” Lord Chen cautioned Ye Futian. No one knew how powerful Ye Futian was now. After sealing himself away for 28 years, followed by concocting pills for another three years, Ye Futian’s cultivation was a mystery. He was still a Level Nine Renhuang, yet he could concoct Two-tribulation Sub-divine elixirs.
However, the enemies Ye Futian needed to face were the Ancient God Clans. The Ancient God Clans also had a passageway to the Original Realm. They could not predict what level of opponent they would encounter. Lord Chen was naturally somewhat worried.
“Hmm,” responded Ye Futian with a nod. He then said, “Let’s head out.”
As he said this, Ye Futian, Hua Jieyu, Blind Tie, Chen Yi, Emperor Xi, and Yang Wuqi headed up into the sky. Their group of six would be heading deep into the Original Realm to the continents that had been established.
Six beams of flowing light instantly vanished before the eyes of the crowd. All the cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Realm were looking up at the sky. Astonishment welled up inside of them. Ye Futian had just returned, but he was actually leaving again immediately.
From their conversation, it seemed as though he was heading out into the starry sky to restore order to the Original Realm and eliminate powerful enemies.
“God Ye!” a youth mumbled.
Then, more and more voices could be heard reverberating throughout the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
Ye Futian was merely stopping by the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. His expedition would lead him to the vast starry sky!
