Ye Futian looked up into the sky. With the support he derived from the divine power, the firmament turned into a divine matrix. Countless divine lights wove together, tempering the power of the Great Path in the heavens, merging into a divine matrix.
In the vast and boundless space, divine lights shot down as sizzling was heard. Those cultivators from the Divine Prefecture, who were below, wore a serious and heavy expression as they released the defensive power of the Great Path to block the divine light that came down on them.
“The Heaven Tempering Divine Method tempers the power of the Great Path in the heavens and turns it into a divine matrix. Its power is enough to slay all enemies.” The cultivators from Divine Prefecture secretly marveled. The Heaven Tempering Divine Method had been created by Tianyan the Great. It could be used to cast matrices, weapon-making, as well as kill others.
In weapon-making, it was capable of the most powerful matrices, and in killing, it was also capable of the most horrific offensive techniques. Any areas covered by this divine method would be annihilated.
According to legend, Tianyan the Great created the Heaven Tempering Divine Method when he was still at his peak. Its power was enough to shroud an entire space until the entire world was covered entirely. With a single thought, everyone in a realm could be slaughtered instantaneously. Its prowess was most dreadful.
And now, Wang Mian was releasing the Heaven Tempering Divine Method. Clearly, its power would be no match to the one released by Tianyan the Great back then, but the power it was able to exert was plenty terrifying. He stood under the Heaven Tempering Divine Matrix, raising the golden divine spear in his hand. The divine power surged into the matrix so that those countless rays of divine light seemed to fall with divine power as well.
“Let me help you,” said a voice. It was none other than Jiang Qingfeng who offered up his help to Wang Mian.
“Yes.” Wang Mian nodded. This Heaven Tempering Divine Method could temper the power of the Great Path in the heavens. If Jiang Qingfeng was willing to cooperate with him, he could temper his power and increase the magnitude of the Heaven Tempering Divine Method.
“I’ll help you too,” someone else piped up. It was Pei Sheng. He walked over, and the three of them stood together under the Heaven Tempering Divine Matrix. These two gave up their own separate attacks and urged their divine power to flow into the divine matrix.
In an instant, the power of the Heaven Tempering Divine Method seemed to multiply significantly again. The divine light that fell became even more radiant, and it appeared as if it was cutting through space.
In addition, the divine light that was falling had become more pervasive until it seemed that it was covering heaven entirely.
“This…” Everyone watched the Heaven Tempering Divine Method increase in power and felt the horror that it produced. Wang Mian, Pei Sheng, and Jiang Qingfeng had finally joined forces. These three major cultivators had gathered all the power at their disposal and poured it into the Heaven Tempering Divine Method to expand the prowess of this divine method. Presently, the Heaven Tempering Divine Method was way more powerful than when it had been urged on by Wang Mian alone.
The sound of sizzle came out with endless divine light falling. The vast spatial world was completely isolated and even divided into numerous segments that were completely separate.
However, many cultivators were in this space. No matter how many people there were, they would have to withstand this attack just the same. Nobody could possibly escape the attack of this divine method.
Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, and Hua Jieyu were standing below. They would not be able to evade this attack either. All they could do was to resist this force head-on.
The cultivators from Tianyan City raised their heads to looked at the battlefield up high. In this battle, none of the principalities from the Divine Prefecture participated—not even when the Vajra Divine Child and Hua Junmo were severely injured did they choose to intervene. After all, at this level, peak Renhuang realm, they could bear any consequences as a result of their own actions as long as they were not dead.
For everyone, this was an extremely rare battle, regardless of the outcome.
Besieged by the Heaven Tempering Divine Method, would Ye Futian manage to withstand it with the help of Shenjia the Great Emperor? And what about Yu Sheng in the Demonic Mail. Or Hua Jieyu, who was playing the guqin?
All three of them were within range of the onslaught.
In that space were many phantom shadows of the demon god summoned by Yu Sheng. When the slaughtering divine light fell down, sharp piercing sounds were heard. Those phantoms shadows were shredded, annihilated, and then dissipated under that countless divine light. They vanished into nothingness, leaving absolutely no trace.
All around Yu Sheng lingered a terrible blade will, which turned into a light screen, shielding his body. Those incoming attacks fell on the light screen, emitting shrieking sounds, but could not tear it apart.
Around Ye Futian, the same was true. A sword screen appeared, surrounding his body to shield him from the falling divine light.
Meanwhile, Hua Jieyu in the area below was still playing the divine melody, Ye Futian’s physical body next to her. When the slaughtering light came down and approached the area where she was, an astonishing force appeared. It seemed to solidify the space. A vacuum was forming around them.
At this moment, this battlefield seemed a little strange. Everyone seemed to stand there without moving, but they all understood that the situation at hand was extremely dangerous. It might be the decisive moment when a clear outcome would emerge.
In the silent space, there was nothing but the slaughtering divine light that rained down upon them. The cultivators from Divine Prefecture watched quietly. They were wondering if Ye Futian and his companions could overcome this divine matrix created by the joint force of the three cultivators as they worked together. They were trying to create an expanded Heaven Tempering Divine Method?
If it could not be neutralized, it was very probable that Ye Futian’s party of three would suffer grave injuries.
Wang Mian lowed his head to glanced at the three people below while his arm was still raised. When he looked up again at the divine matrix, his figure rushed directly into the matrix. Suddenly, a boundless and massive phantom appeared in the midst of the matrix. It was none other than Wang Mian’s face.
Buzz, buzz, buzz… A more horrific slaughtering light descended like the light of extinction. In an instant, deep and terrible fissures appeared below. Suddenly, golden divine light and the pitch-dark crevices interweaved, finding their murderous way to Ye Futian and his little party of three.
When this attack landed, it was as if all the heavens were about to be silenced.
“Be careful,” some cultivator from the Divine Prefecture cautioned from below. When such a horrific attack came crashing down, even those further down were under its influence. All those who had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path were busy gathering their powerful forces to protect themselves. As strong as they were, the slightest complacency would allow this attack to breach their defense.
At this moment, the Heaven Tempering Divine Method was already the type of attack capable of slaughtering cultivators who had survived the first Divine Tribulation of the Great Path.
Boom! At this moment, Yu Sheng took a sudden step forward. That invincible demon god appeared directly above Ye Futian. It was as if it was blocking on top of him. In case that attack came blasting down, he would be the first line of defense.
A boundless and massive demon god appeared, standing tall between heaven and earth. Numerous phantoms of the demon gods filled the sky again, but this time they were illusions only. However, all these phantoms resonated solemnly as if responding to the call of the Demonic Lord.
All around Yu Sheng, actual figures of the demon gods appeared. It was as if they were superimposed over his body. They simultaneously unleashed their demonic blades as well. They slashed toward the firmament at the same time when Yu Sheng himself also unleashed the strike.
All these incomparably powerful attacks gathered together, turning into one blade, slashing towards the upper sky. Yu Sheng’s body moved with the light of the blade, trailing upward.
When Ye Futian looked up and saw this, he understood what Yu Sheng was trying to accomplish.
