Chapter 2717: The Mystery of the Divine Stones
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the blink of an eye, the divine stones floating in mid-air had been swept
clean. All of them had been pocketed by various cultivators. Some cultivators
released the power of the Great Path to stop the others from snatching them,
but to no avail.
There are none left? exclaimed someone. Before many cultivators could react
to the situation, they discovered that the divine stones had all been taken. All
of them had disappeared without a trace.
Moreover, most of them could not make out who had looted the most divine
stones. They only caught a glimpse of the whole process. The moment the
divine lights lit up, the divine stones were carved up by various parties.
Whoever had better control over the power of space most likely seized the most
significant portion of the divine stones.
Dugu Wuxie seized quite a few. It was the same for Di Hao and Donghuang
Diyuan. However, all this was not surprising. There was another person who
managed to snatch many divine stones.
It was Ye Futian!
The gazes of many of the cultivators landed on Ye Futian. Even the giant-level
figures of the top forces were looking at him. In that instant, an emerald-green
divine light shone. They saw the divine stones being enveloped by the divine
light. They ignored all resistance by the other powers of the Great Path and
disappeared from where they were.
Without a doubt, they had been seized by Ye Futian.
With the power of the Divine Ruler, it seemed that anything was possible.
Little Friend Ye, you have taken quite a few, no? Di Hao asked Ye Futian as he
looked at the latter.
Ye Futian raised his head and took a glance at Di Hao. He frowned and said,
You took several stones too. The people who are on the ball get what they
deserve. Could it be that you have a problem with that?
Di Hao represented the forces of the Human Realm on their trip here.
Currently, in this vast continent of ruins, Ye Futian led the cultivators of Ziwei
Segmentum while Yu Sheng ruled over the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace.
They were not inferior to the forces of the Human Realm at all If all of them
were to go to war, the forces of the Human Realm would instead be at a
disadvantage.
On top of that, there was Ye Qingyao, the Reaper of the Dark Court. She already
had a clear stance on who she would side with.
“of course, it is as you say-the people who are on the ball get what they
deserve. I am merely impressed,” Di Hao replied with a smile. He glanced at Ye
Futian and Yu Sheng. He was well aware that he couldn’t attack Ye Futian on
this ancient continent.
Putting aside Ye Futian’s subordinates and his allies, even he had extraordinary
abilities.
“Since that’s the case, farewell, Ye Futian said. He took a last look at the ruin.
This Old Heaven Court had nothing valuable left now. Ji Wudao destroyed most
of it while the rest of them snatched whatever remained.
The Old Heaven Court had genuinely turned into a ruin. There might still be
teachings and treasures left in other relics. However, in this region where the
Heavenly Palace was located, the only things left were wreckage.
“Let’s go,” commanded Yu Sheng. He also left with the cultivators of Devil
Imperial Palace. In the blink of an eye, the cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace
and Devil Imperial Palace had both disappeared from this region.
The surrounding cultivators watched as they left. Some of them were tempted
to attack Ye Futian, but none dared to put their thoughts into action.
Currently, it was too difficult to want to attack Ye Futian.
A minor miscalculation in their actions would put them in a life-and-death
crisis.
After Ye Futian and Yu Sheng left, the other Emperor-level forces gradually
dispersed. Their mission this time could be considered a failure. The Old
Heaven Court had been destroyed by Ji Wudao. All the golems of the Tianshens
had crumbled into pieces.
Their only spoils were the divine stones. However, nobody knew what secrets
were hidden in these stones for now. The value of the stones had yet to be
determined.
Various forces were eager to retun to their bases and decipher the mystery of
the divine stones.
Ye Futian and his allies returned to the relic of Mahoraga. Yu Sheng followed
them here too. He then ordered the cultivators of Devil Imperial Palace to leave
first. His relationship with Ye Futian went without saying. However, Yu Sheng
knew that many cultivators in Devil Imperial Palace had qualms with Ye Futian
since he took away the Divine Ruler.
Nevertheless, the current Yu Sheng could suppress the cultivators of Devil
Imperial Palace to prevent his members from getting into a quarrel with Ye
Futian.
At the core region of the relic of Mahoraga, the cultivators, who did not go to
the Old Heaven Court with Ye Futian, were still training hard. They immersed
themselves in their meditation and were not perturbed by anything around
them
Ye Futian’s group came to one spot. He then waved his hand, and many divine
stones immediately appeared simultaneously, floating in the space. On these
divine stones, there were no traces of the aura of the Great Path. They seemed
to be ordinary rocks. No wonder Ji Wudao had not discovered them.
Otherwise, he would have certainly claimed them all as his own before he left.
He wouldn’t have gone any for others.
Even Near-Deity Level cultivators could not break open the divine stones.
Ye Futian pondered for a while and then pointed towards a divine stone.
Terrifying attacks landed on it, sending it flying outwards. Yet, it was still
unscathed. Ye Futian did not know what sort of divine item it was.
“What secrets do these characters contain? said Yu Sheng as he stared at the
iivine stones floating in mid-air. The similarity between these divine stones
was that each had one character carved on it. However, each character was
different
“Xing (walk), “Yu Sheng read out the character engraved on one of the divine
stones as he stared atit.
“Zang-treasure.”
Jian-sword.”
“Shou-hand”
“Kong-space.”
Each character was different, with no duplicates.
Ye Futian also stared at the characters on the divine stones. His divine
consciousness enveloped them. An emerald-green aura flowed over the various
divine stones. He used his most powerful sensory ability to comprehend the
mystery behind them.
However, he still could not sense the presence of any aura within them.
Could it be that these divine stones were merely very durable?
Could it be that they had no other uses?
However, if that was the case, why were characters engraved on them?
“Xing,”mumbled Ye Futian as he looked at one of the characters.
The power of the Great Path in his body surged towards the divine stone.
Emerald-green divine halos wrapped around it.
Screech. The emerald-green divine halo became a mighty power of law. It
merged into the character xing, tracing over it. Then, the crowd saw the left
side of the character light up and radiate brilliant divine halos.
“It responded,” exclaimed the cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace as they
narrowed their eyes. Of course, Ye Futian noticed the changes too. His will
controlled his power of the Great Path to continue tracing over the right side of
the character. Soon, both sides of the character lit up.
Under the emerald-green divine halo, the character xing’ suddenly radiated
with unparalleled divine light that expanded outwards. There was an extremely
astonishing will emanating from the divine stone. This drew the undivided
attention of all of the cultivators.
What secrets were contained within this character?
Ye Futian had directly opened up the character’s secrets with brute force.
At the instant the character ‘xing lit up, countless ‘xing characters flew out
from the divine stone. They blocked out the sky, and their light covered the
space. The character left the stone and expanded frenziedly. It became gigantic
and covered the sky.
After it grew many times larger, to their astonishment, the crowd discovered
that an illusory figure had appeared at the center of the gigantic xing’
A person seemed to be sitting cross-legged and cultivating!
