Chapter 1320: 1320
King Tiandao went up to the pagoda . His willpower entered into it, causing it to rotate . Golden light fell upon it like bolts of lightning .

Outside the pagoda, the divine golden dragon was circling it, slowly materializing into what looked like a real dragon .
Images of more pagodas fell continuously onto Ye Futian’s massive figure .
All was dead silent throughout the vastness of the sky .
Everyone was watching the scene unfolding before them .
This was the bet between Emperor Li and Ye Futian . It would probably determine the Imperial Advisor’s fate .
The Imperial Advisor of Dali Dynasty looked at the figure in front of him . The once handsome youth had become incredibly large and tall . It seemed that he was trying to protect the old man .
A hurricane swept over towards them, making his white hair fly in the wind .
However, he had not yet used even the slightest bit of his power . His powers had been permanently damaged, and so there was nothing he could do other than watch everything unfold .
The light of the pagoda was extremely bright in that suffocating space . After what seemed like a long time, King Tiandao was finally able to control the pagoda completely . He stepped forward with a cold look on his face . He looked down at Ye Futian .
He knew why Emperor Li was doing this . The true killing power of the pagoda did not lie in what it displayed on the outside .
As long as Ye Futian nodded, he would be killed beyond all shadow of a doubt .
Even if it had been him who had to bear the three attacks that would happen when he activated the pagoda, he would still be in danger . So how much more so would be Ye Futian, who was merely a Saint of True Self .
When Ye Futian died, the others from the Crimson Dragon Realm would flee as well . The others did not know the Imperial Advisor or even Emperor Xia . They were not Emperor Xia’s subordinates, so they would not necessarily give their lives for him .
Moreover, Emperor Xia himself would not dare to gamble the lives of all his people here to save the Imperial Advisor .
“Die!” said King Tiandao in a low voice . He finally made his move . There was a loud noise as shining divine beings were released from the pagoda .
Boom!
A shocking noise rang out as Ye Futian’s massive body was smashed by a colossal pagoda that covered him completely . Endless destructive lightning ravaged his flesh, and he was crushed by a terrible pressure .
The dragon roared as Ye Futian raised his head . He seemed to have appeared in the space in the middle of the pagoda . The divine golden dragon rushed down with a roar and entered directly into his mind, smashing into his spiritual willpower . The dragon’s roar sought to shake his very soul .
Crack! Crack! Crack! Inch by inch, cracks were appearing in Ye Futian’s massive form . His mind shook, and he felt half-dead from fright as his flesh was destroyed .

He was too strong . This power would not only destroy his body; it would also destroy his spiritual willpower .
So this was a Weapon of Mass Destruction .
Ye Futian’s massive form could not even withstand a single attack . Everyone’s hearts trembled as they watched .
Emperor Xia’s eyes were cold as he watched . It seemed like he was ready to get involved at any moment .
If Ye Futian could not hold out, then he would get involved, even if it started a war . He could not watch Ye Futian die .
Ye Futian had made a bet, but he did not want him to give up his life .
“Continue,” said Emperor Li . His voice was calm . He did not ask for King Tiandao to stop .
If he wanted to kill him, he would have to do it all with one sustained effort and not give Ye Futian a chance to breathe . You would have to crush him .
You would have to destroy his body and cut out his soul .
No matter how outstandingly talented Ye Futian was, today, he would be left behind forever .
“Very well,” answered King Tiandao . He launched another attack that split the earth and cracked the sky . The endless divine light of the Great Path gathered together and fell upon the pagodas .
The pagodas seemed to grow taller and rotated above Ye Futian’s head . All of the attacks were falling upon Ye Futian . They were extremely accurate, and not a bit of power was wasted .
The several Unblemished Saints by Emperor Li were protecting the Imperial Advisor with their will . Even though the attacks were incredibly accurate and would not hit him by accident, the Imperial Advisor was so weak that he could not bear even the slightest disturbance .
Before Emperor Li made his decision, they could not let him die here .
The endless divine light transformed into another pagoda that wrapped around Ye Futian . The storm of golden pagodas spun, flattening everything, continuously shattering his Chonglou Battle Form .
The terrible, destructive storm seemed to be at the Nirvana level . Its fury was continuously renewed .
The Chonglou Battle Form seemed about to collapse, and his legs seemed unable to support him as he was cut down by the terrible force . It appeared that he would fall .
Endless arms of Flames of the Way stretched out, pressing against the ground to hold him up, but the terrible destructive light destroyed them .
Boom!

Ye Futian could only feel a divine pagoda crushing down on him . Magma seemed to be condensing from his Flames of the Way, turning into an indestructible solid . But cracks still appeared in it . What was worse was that his body was relatively unharmed compared to what he was suffering in his mind .
With pagodas and fire light dancing before his eyes, the Imperial Advisor of Dali’s robes fluttered in the wind . He looked over at the Battle Form that was being crushed in front of him .
Suddenly, he found himself thinking of a previous destructive battle .
At that time, he had been in Emperor Li’s good graces . Thus, when he had entered the Dali Dynasty, he had been named Imperial Advisor . He had been devoted to the dynasty and trained many cultivators . Today, many of the amazing cultivators of the Dali Dynasty had once been under his guidance .
He did not want to see the future Dali Dynasty suffer the kind of destruction he had once faced . At the same time, as the Dali Dynasty was rising, he had taught disciples and found a place for Feixue . He had thought that life would always be like that . If he could protect the dynasty as it prospered and spend more time with Feixue, he would have been satisfied .
Because Feixue spent so much time sleeping, the two of them spent more time separated than together .
The days had passed like this for many years . But since Feixue was always in the realm of sleep, and had been so young, he had had to move forward alone in order to protect Feixue .
Ye Futian’s appearance had changed everything .
Everything in the world has a destiny . In the end, it had been impossible for things to continue as he had wished .
But no matter what, everything that had happened before had been destined to happen, and so he could accept them with a clear conscience .
Even if he died, he would have no regrets .
But those disciples who had studied under him for a time were not willing to let him die .
The destructive storm was tearing through Ye Futian’s Battle Form . It seemed like he was about to fall .
A stronger force was brewing and could fall at any time .
Emperor Xia’s aura was growing stronger . It seemed like he was preparing to attack .
But just at that moment, an even stronger aura burst out from Emperor Li . He did not look at Ye Futian but at Emperor Xia . “Emperor Xia,” he said, “the winner and loser of the previous battle have already been decided . Let’s have another one, shall we?”
On saying this, he stepped forward and suddenly descended right in front of Emperor Xia . He had obviously guessed what Emperor Xia was thinking . He would not let Emperor Xia interrupt King Tiandao while he was killing Ye Futian .
Emperor Li was so strong once he decided to act . In a flash, the entire palace was filled with his power . Emperor Xia raised his hand to attack, forcing his opponent’s energy to disperse . The great army of Emperor Xia’s Realm was behind him .
The two of them shot up into the clouds . There was a loud noise, and destructive light boomed . If the two of them had not gone up into the sky, countless people would have been killed by their attacks .

Emperor Li was gambling with the lives of everyone in his palace . He was betting that Emperor Xia would not put up a fight .
His beloved daughter Xia Qingyuan was there as well .
Boom!
At that moment, King Tiandao launched his third attack .
Everyone’s hearts were beating wildly as they stared at Ye Futian .
His Battle Form was cracking inch by inch as it continuously collapsed . A lightning bolt shot into him, piercing through his body .
The pressure was crushing him down . He turned his huge eyes towards the Imperial Advisor .
“Why are you doing this?” The Imperial Advisor’s long hair flew in the wind as he stared at Ye Futian .
This was not the outcome he had wished for . He did not want to see Ye Futian gamble his own life for his .
However, he saw that Ye Futian was smiling . Blood was flowing from his mouth .
“As the heavens’ movement is ever vigorous, so must a wise man ceaselessly strive . ”
These words echoed throughout Emperor Li’s mind .
These were the words that he had said to Ye Futian . Now, Ye Futian was giving them back to him .
When cultivating the Great Path, a gentleman should be continually improving himself . Why should he seek death?
That was Nirvana .
Looking into those smiling eyes, the Imperial Advisor smiled as well . But even as he smiled, his eyes grew wet .
He slowly stood up . Even though the years weighed down on him, he still stood straight . He had the backbone of a gentleman .
“As heaven’s movement is ever vigorous, so must a wise man ceaselessly strive . ” The Imperial Advisor looked up into the sky . A terrible storm was whipping across the land, and a brilliant light was flashing . His body was still extremely fragile, and it seemed as if a gust of wind could knock him over . But within that weak body lay an unyielding heart .
Boom! Boom! Boom! Destructive attacks were still shattering Ye Futian’s Battle Form and even smashing into his body . His spiritual will was also under devastating attack . But his eyes were still bright .
“You’re still not dead?” King Tiandao’s face darkened .
“You have had your three attacks . Release the Imperial Advisor,” came a voice from up in the sky . “But, as for the army that Ye Futian is leading, destroy them . ”
The words “destroy them” fell from the sky like a bolt of lightning, entering directly into everyone’s minds .
It seemed that Emperor Li still wanted to do this .
He had only promised to let the Imperial Advisor go . He had not promised that after three attacks, he would stop fighting altogether .
King Tiandao could take this chance to kill Ye Futian .
Ye Futian had no chance to escape .
As long as he abided by Emperor Li’s conditions, he would die for sure .
“Yes, Your Highness,” said King Tiandao clearly . He had a fierce desire to kill Ye Futian .
The Unblemished Saints’ power disappeared from the Imperial Advisor’s body, and at the same time, they tried to undo his bindings .
“Don’t trouble yourselves,” whispered the Imperial Advisor . As he said this, the bindings on him shattered into pieces . The destructive hurricane swept out, sending the Unblemished Saints around him flying .
Brilliant light shot up from his body into the sky . Just as King Tiandao launched another attack, he raised his fist .
Dong!
With a loud noise, an incomparably huge pagoda fell, but it was blocked by a huge palm print that covered the sky . It was big enough to block the entire sky in one direction .
Countless beams of divine light fell upon the Imperial Advisor . His white hair gradually disappeared, and his wrinkles faded . His cloudy eyes became dazzlingly bright again .
His calm voice rang out through the palace . “From now on, I will no longer obey Emperor Li . I am no longer the Imperial Adviser of the Dali Dynasty!”
