The news of the bloodbath that took place in West Sea Palace spread quickly towards the Original Realm. At first, it was the Domain Chief’s Manors of all 18 domains of the Divine Prefecture. Then it spread to other major forces. By now, they all learned that Ye Futian had gone to the World of Buddhism and cultivated the superpower of Buddha’s Celerity, and he had washed the West Imperial Palace in blood.
In no time, this celebrated figure, who had disappeared for 20 years, was once again in the sight of all Original Realm.
And his reappearance shook the Original Realm.
The Domain Chief’s Manor of West Sea Domain in the Original Realm was washed in blood. There were heavy casualties among the cultivators who were inside the Domain Chief’s Manor.
Naturally, Ning Yuan was one of the firsts to get the news. After he heard it, he felt a tremor in his heart. Was Ye Futian already this frightening?
He suddenly thought that if it wasn’t because Ye Futian had his concerns before, he might have already washed Donghua Palace in blood in a similar fashion. Even Chief Xihai could not take him down, so how could he, Ning Yuan, do it?
He couldn’t help but feel a little hopeless. Wouldn’t this mean that he didn’t even have the qualification to speak of revenge now?
If he dared to touch any of Ye Futian’s people, the entire Donghua Palace would probably be terminated.
This was precisely the effect that Ye Futian wanted to achieve. What happened in Donghua Palace made Ye Futian realize that those top figures did not care about the life and death of the weak. In the future, if the cultivators from the Ziwei Segmentum want to ever walk freely, then he had to make sure the Domain Chief’s Manor of the Western Sea Domain would be an object lesson to everyone.
This was to warn the others not to touch any cultivators from the Ziwei Segmentum.
Great strength was the best and only deterrent.
Ye Futian thought of that desperate look in Mo Yunzi’s eyes again, and he felt a pang of heartache. If he had moved just a little slower that time, those who died would not just be Mo Yunzi, but also Li Changsheng and the others. He clearly understood that Chief Xihai, at the time, had no concerns for any of their lives. If that giant hand had caught anyone else, they would all ended the same way, crushed to death!
Therefore, he would never allow this kind of thing to happen again, and this debt was far from being collected to his satisfaction. As he said to Chief Xihai, this was only the beginning.
However, it seemed that the Ziwei Segmentum, at least for the time being, could not be unsealed just yet.
…
To the west of the Divine Prefecture, there was a boundless sea, known as the West Sea.
In the West Sea, there were countless islands of various sizes. Some islands may be as small as a hill, while larger islands may be an entire continent.
This sea and its endless islands formed one of the 18 domains of the Divine Prefecture, the West Sea Domain.
The two largest islands in the West Sea Domain were called islands, but in fact, they were continents in the sea, vast and boundless.
These two islands were Canghuan and Yingzhou.
Canghuan Island was the place of cultivation for West Imperial Palace, and it had a long history. There were countless islands of varying sizes all around Canghuan Island. It was still incredibly prosperous to this day. The closer the areas were to Canghuan Island, the more prosperous they were.
In the other location, Yingzhou Island was across from it. It was the island where the Domain Chief’s Manor of West Sea Domain was located. It was also surrounded by countless islands. It was once the second-largest island in the West Sea Domain and had an equally long and ancient history.
In addition, in the boundless West Sea Domain, there were many magical places, such as celestial islands, which were rarely visited or occupied by anyone, adding to their mysteries.
Even though Yingzhou Island was called an island, it was actually an infinite and vast continent in the sea.
The Domain Chief’s Manor in the West Sea Domain was not in the center of Yingzhou Island. On the contrary, the Domain Chief’s Manor of the West Sea Domain was located in Yingzhou City, and Yingzhou City was built by the sea, ancient and majestic.
In the coastal region near Yingzhou City, countless ships were coming and going. These ships were all of them extraordinary, cast by implements. They traveled at a terrifying speed, shuttling through the sea. Of course, there were also cultivators traveling in the sky as well. Standing near the sea in Yingzhou City and looking up, one could see a continuous trail of cultivators in the sky above that never stopped.
At this time, there was a single boat on the sea far away. This lonesome boat looked very simple, a young man standing on it. The man was extremely handsome, dressed in all white. He was as pure as the falling snow. His long silvery hair was casually draped over his shoulders. There was an indescribable attractiveness about him. Even female cultivators who happened to pass by couldn’t help but gave him a couple of glances.
The man on the lone boat was none other than Ye Futian. He came from the Original Realm and traveled all this way to Yingzhou City of the West Sea Domain, which was also Chief Xihai’s lair.
The boat sprinted towards the coast, seemingly at ease, but had already gone ashore in a few moments. Some people were watching Ye Futian, who found that after he walked onto the shore, his figure disappeared right from the spot without even leaving a trace of aura.
It’s no wonder that he has such an exceptional temperament; it seems that his strength is unfathomable, someone secretly marveled without giving the matter more thought. They then continued on with their own business.
After Ye Futian entered Yingzhou City, he didn’t worry about doing much of anything else but began to gather information. In order to deal with the enemy, he had to understand them first.
This was not the West Sea Palace in the Original Realm, and the Domain Chief’s Manor in West Sea Domain was not so easy to break into either. He knew that Chief Xihai in the Original Realm was just an exterior incarnation, so he was able to get rid of him with ease. However, in this Yingzhou City, the one he encountered might be the stronger version of the man himself.
Of course, Ye Futian didn’t much care about that, even if it was Chief Xihai himself. With his current realm of cultivation, coupled with Buddha’s Celerity, even Saint Zhenchan could not catch up to him at the time. Chief Xihai may be powerful, but conceivably, his realm may not be on the same level as Saint Zhenchan’s.
Yingzhou Tavern was the largest tavern in all of Yingzhou City. It was the property of the Domain Chief’s Manor, and a descendant from the Domain Chief’s Manor was in charge of the place here.
Because it was the property of the Domain Chief’s Manor, Yingzhou Tavern was often the gathering place for influential people from all over the West Sea Domain.
At this time, in the open area on top of Yingzhou Tavern, a group of cultivators was here, discussing cultivation. They had attracted many other cultivators from far away to gather here as well. Looking up, it was evident that the person leading the discussion above was someone special.
The cultivator who sat at the head of the table, on the high seat, was someone named Qin Luo. He was from the mainline of the Domain Chief’s Manor. Chief Xihai was from the Qin clan and had taken root in the West Sea Domain and strengthened his line for many years.
Qin Luo’s talent for cultivation was very strong by nature, and he was a junior figure that Chief Xihai greatly valued. He had been cultivating for more than a hundred years and had by now reached Renhaung in the Ninth-Realm. His combat effectiveness was exceptional; he was an extremely well-known figure in Yingzhou City.
He made his name when he was young, hailed as the “War God of Yingzhou.” Now, he was on the verge of Tribulation Plane. The people who came here today were celebrated individuals, which explained Qin Luo’s presence in hosting them in person.
“Have you heard of the news from Original Realm?” said an old man spoke, and everyone nodded.
“I heard that Ye Futian has cultivated the superpower of Buddhism, even the exterior incarnation of the Chief had difficulties tracking him down. The Domain Chief’s Manor in the Original Realm was destroyed because of Ye Futian’s sneak attack,” someone said.
“Sneak attack?” Someone jeered and said, “This Ye Futian is said to have reached the Ninth-Realm. Some even say that he is now Renhuang invincible. Ning Hua was no competition, after all.”
“Renhuang invincible? What arrogance.” A middle-aged man clad in a robe with Eight Trigrams said sarcastically, “How many celebrated figures are in a world this vast? Just the West Sea Domain alone had many extraordinary genius talents with awesome combat effectiveness. Everything aside, Qin Luo, after defeating the cultivators from all sides that one time, had now been cultivating for many years and reached the peak of Renhuang Realm. If he were to encounter Ye Futian, it was not impossible that they would have a fight.”
“That’s right, if Ye Futian doesn’t run away when he meets our War God of Yingzhou, he will be detained for sure,” someone else said, clearly intending to flatter. After all, Ning Hua, the Vice Chief of Donghua Domain, and Zhou Muhuang, Vice Chief of Shangqing Domain, which one of them was weak?
“This Ye Futian easily crushed Zhou Muhuang and slaughtered other Renhuang in the Ninth-Realm; his strength must be incredible. But he is cruel by nature and thirst for blood, and he has killed many of our people in the Domain Chief’s Manor. If I ever catch sight of him, no matter his strength, I shall try my best to kill him.” Qin Luo spoke lightly, as if it was an easy thing to do.
“This man is unparalleled in the art of escape and will inevitably run. Even the Chief had difficulty capturing and killing him,” someone else said.
“Mmm, but that was the exterior incarnation of the Chief. If he dares to come to Yingzhou, he will die for sure,” Qin Luo said nonchalantly, and everyone around him nodded in agreement. They toasted to that very sentiment.
Just as they were talking, suddenly, another person appeared in the tavern. This man was dressed in all white with a head of white hair, handsome and exceptional. His sudden appearance stunned many people.
The appearance of this man was without the slightest fluctuation in aura. It was as if he had appeared out of thin air.
But judging from his temperament, he must be extremely extraordinary, and presumably with a high level of realm. Otherwise, they would have perceived his coming.
No one dared to underestimate him, and Qin Luo was looking at him now as well. He put down his wine cup and asked, “Qin Luo is my name here at Yingzhou Tavern. May I ask who you are?”
Ye Futian looked at Qin Luo without the slightest disturbance in those deep-set eyes of his. He replied, “I am the person you were just threatening to kill. I am here now and I will not be running away.”
His voice faded, and the hearts of the people in the tavern skipped a beat collectively.
Ye Futian!
They were just talking about him, and Qin Luo had declared that he would do his best to destroy Ye Futian if he ever showed up. He had threatened that if Ye Futian was ever here in Yingzhou, he was a dead man.
The next moment, Ye Futian appeared in front of them in person, standing in front of them just like this.
Qin Luo’s expression changed in an instant. It was as if he was suddenly facing the greatest enemy in his life. Although his words were flippant enough before, he knew in his heart just how terrifying Ye Futian was. The aura of the Great Path exploded in an instant. A terrifying Great Path of Ice Seal directly covered this entire space, and the tavern turned into ice in a second. Ye Futian’s body seemed to be frozen inside this block of ice as well.
However, in the ice, Ye Futian turned slightly, raising his arm. He did not move quickly, but the movement was completely fluid, as if he was one with heaven and earth.
He dropped his finger down and pointed in the direction where Qin Luo was.
A light appeared in the ice, which penetrated Qin Luo’s brow chakra. Then a loud blast was heard. Qin Luo’s body had been pulverized into nothing instantaneously.
In the ice, every one of the cultivators were horrified as they beheld this sight. Their expressions changed to one with shock. They felt that their hearts were about to stop beating.
Was this Ye Futian really so frightening?
Bang! Ye Futian turned his feet around ever so slightly, and the magnificent Yingzhou Tavern shattered and collapsed. The ice dissipated at the same time.
In the distance, countless eyes were looking at this side. They saw Ye Futian suspended in the air with exceptional distinction and grace.
He turned around, and his eyes were fixed on the distance where the Domain Chief’s Manor was located.
“Tell Chief Xihai, I’ve come to collect.” Ye Futian left with this simple message before he disappeared. It was as if he had never been there at all.
He was here. He came from the Original Realm to the land of the Divine Prefecture, and came directly to Yingzhou City for the kill!
