Ye Futian finally understood what his father had said to him before—the Human Ancestor was not the real Human Ancestor.
Now, he could vaguely sense that it was highly possible that the Human Ancestor that he was facing now was only a clone of the Human Ancestor.
The Human Ancestor that had survived since the era of the Heavenly Path’s collapse had been cultivating every moment of these countless years. He had even collected countless Great Emperor relics from when the Heavenly Path had collapsed and found the traces of the gods in this world.
How could he not be powerful?
Was the force that he had felt earlier the force brought on by the Human Ancestor’s true consciousness?
Then the Human Ancestor turned and looked toward him. Destructive light shot out of his eyes. Using a thought, Ye Futian’s body disappeared from the spot and appeared before Donghuang the Great. “Father, let’s go,” he said.
Since the Human Ancestor was just a clone and had an undying body, it meant that this battle had no meaning anymore. They could not kill the enemy, and in that battle, he had also made risky actions. This was an extremely unbalanced battle.
The two transformed into two beams of light and shot into the distance, instantly vanishing from the spot. But a Tianshen used their mind, and the vast world was instantly frozen. The space was locked, and everything here seemed to fall into a still state.
But Ye Futian was in his own divine domain. Divine Power exploded, and he transformed into a spot of light, streaking through the space. The power of the sealed void could not stop his departure. The two instantly streaked into the distance.
The Eternal Swordlord looked at the escaping figures and cut down with his sword remotely. The sword crossed the space to kill them. It crumbled the vast void. All the stars in its path shattered and collapsed, getting sliced apart directly. The Sword Path Milky Way dropped down, and it was like one could not escape this attack no matter how they ran.
But then the two beams of light that were Ye Futian and Donghuang the Great passed directly through the Sword Path Milky Way. They streaked forward, passing through, and then continued to escape until they disappeared.
The two were figures at the top of the pyramid. Clearly, it was quite unlikely for them to be stopped by this one sword.
The group of Tianshen did not pursue them. The gods realized that the vast majority of them might not be able to withstand Ye Futian’s attack. They might even get killed instantly, so they definitely could not leave the group to chase after them.
The Human Ancestor did not pursue them either. He stared at the escaping figures and realized that even this Tianshen army could not make the two stay completely.
Ye Futian’s abilities were not any weaker than Donghuang the Great now. Similarly, he was not weaker than The Human Ancestor either. In addition, he was skilled in many things and very hard to deal with. Even if they pursued him, there would be no result. Ye Futian’s speed was not any slower than them either.
Earlier, they had been able to catch him. Ye Futian probably did it purposely to try and exchange blows with them.
“Go,” the Human Ancestor said. He led all the Tianshen to leave this place. They prepared to visit the Divine Prefecture’s Imperial Palace and the Western Heaven Spiritual Mountain.
Ye Futian and Donghuang the Great traveled through the vast void. They did not know where they’d reached, but they stopped after knowing that the others did not chase after them.
“Father’s speculation was correct. The Human Ancestor we faced may have just been a clone of the Human Ancestor. He ruled the world and managed the order of the Human Realm with a clone. The true body of the Human Ancestor might not have recovered his vitality completely,” Ye Futian said to Donghuang the Great.
Donghuang the Great understood that Ye Futian discovered some things in the previous exchange of blows.
“It must be,” Donghuang the Great. “Back then, your mother had died because of this. If the other returns, I’m afraid it will be a disaster. Thus, we still have to hurry up.”
“Yes.” Ye Futian nodded, feeling a wave of stress.
“The Human Ancestor had the various gods return to be used by him,” Ye Futian continued to say. “If it is like how we predicted, then surely the gods fear the Human Ancestor greatly too. They can only be used by him willingly.”
“Earlier, many of the Great Emperors did not attack,” Donghuang the Great replied. “Even if they did not attack, surely they have some concerns. The Human Ancestor wants to replace the Heavenly Path and take its path. The gods must be fearful of this day too. At that time, the Human Ancestor would be the supreme existence. Even a Great Emperor would not dare to go against him.”
If the Human Ancestor replaced the Heavenly Path, becoming an existence like the ancient Heavenly Path, the various gods would be the gods under his reign. No matter how strong they were, they could not go against the Heavenly Path like back then.
Who could do it again?
The battle from the past had already caused the Heavenly Path to collapse and the gods to fall. If a new Heavenly Path appeared, who would fight with it? Who dared to fight with it?
“What will we do next?” Ye Futian wanted to hear Donghuang the Great’s suggestion.
“You will cultivate here, and I’ll go out to take a look. I will notify you of news from the outside world,” Donghuang the Great replied. He wanted to give Ye Futian more time to cultivate. Giving up the ninety-nine heavens of the Heaven Realm and taking everyone away was also to fight for more time.
Time in Ye Futian’s Micro Heavenly Path flowed at 81 times the speed. If he could get one year in the outside world, it would be 81 years. All the people in the Micro Heavenly Path would be able to transform.
“Yes.” Ye Futian nodded. He was worried about the situation outside too. Now, the Human Ancestor led the strong figures of the three realms to invade. The beings would all suffer greatly. Even though reached a consensus for the cultivators of the Heaven Realm, Divine Prefecture, and Western Heaven World to try not to participate in the battle directly, they still could not avoid the killing and fighting.
This was an invasion.
The invaders would not be kind. It would be accompanied by fresh blood and white bones.
But even so, he was the only one who could change the situation of this battle, and he had to hurry and cultivate to improve himself right now.
“Let us separate here,” Donghuang the Great said.
“Father, be careful,” Ye Futian said a bit seriously. This time, the enemies that they faced were too strong. Otherwise, with Donghuang the Great’s abilities, he did not need Ye Futian’s worry at all. This time was different.
The gods of ancient times were all their enemies.
“Don’t worry. I will be careful and avoid battles. You cultivate at peace,” Donghuang the Great said. “This time, I have no choice but to abandon the Heaven Palace and Donghuang Imperial Palace. It is a humiliation. All of this is waiting for you to take back. I will leave now.”
With that, he turned and walked forward, leaving with extreme decisiveness. He left Ye Futian alone in the vast void.
Of course, all the cultivators of the ninety-nine heavens were in his Micro Heavenly Path world.
He did not need to cultivate himself. He also had to help them become stronger.
Ye Futian’s body flashed, going toward a specific direction. A moment later, he saw a barren star.
With a thought, Ye Futian’s body appeared on that barren star. Then he went directly to a barren mountain on that barren star and sat down. He closed his eyes to cultivate, starting his seclusion.
One day in the outside world was 81 days in his micro world. He had to grasp the advantage of time!
