Chapter 2666: Undying Great Emperor

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

For a month, the cultivators of the Ziwei Imperial Palace remained cultivating here as they comprehended the blade of grass.

In this period, many people from the outside world came and were sent packing by the divine roc. However, the divine roc encountered a mighty opponent and was suppressed right now.

A terrifying aura came from the outside. Ye Futian also sensed it. He walked out of the palace and saw the divine roc being suppressed. It came crashing to the ground and then leaped up into the air. Its gigantic eyes were staring at the silhouette facing it.

“Senior, why didn’t you borrow the emperor’s might from the palace?” Ye Futian asked the divine roc.

“All of you were comprehending and cultivating. I was worried that I would disturb you if I did so,” replied the divine roc.

Ye Futian did not say anymore. He looked at the figure standing across from them. Only one person was standing there. His aura was frightening, and the divine light of the Great Path circled him. He was one with the heavens and the earth. It seemed that he was not just at the Two Tribulation Plane and had already contacted the next level. His power of the Great Path was highly astonishing.

Ye Futian stepped forward as he took out the imperial arm, Sky Tremor, and held it in his hand. The other party swept a glance at the imperial arm and did not seem too concerned with it. Without the Will of the Great Emperor, the might of the imperial arm had been weakened drastically. Without sufficient cultivation, one could not bring out its true power.

Hence, the other party did not fear the presence of the imperial arm.

“I am Ye Futian, Palace Lord of Ziwei Imperial Palace. Could you show me some face and leave?” Ye Futian asked the man. For now, he did not know who this person was. Was he a cultivator from an emperor-level force in the Seven Realms, or was he a hermit?

The figure glanced at Ye Futian. He was sizing Ye Futian up. Ye Futian sensed that the other party seemed more interested in him than the imperial arm he wielded.

Clearly, the other party recognized him.

Currently, among the top figures of the Seven Realms, there were very few cultivators who had not heard of Ye Futian’s name.

The other party did not respond. Instead, he stared at Ye Futian. A moment later, he left with a flash. His voice sounded from the sky, saying, “Alright.”

“Senior, many thanks,” said Ye Futian as he looked at the leaving silhouette in the sky. Since the other party gave him face, he would be polite with the former by calling him “senior.”

The divine roc glanced at Ye Futian and asked, “Are you very famous?”

“You could say that,” Ye Futian replied.

“How famous are you?” the divine roc asked curiously, striking up a casual conversation. Before this, the two of them also had other conversations.

“There are not many cultivators who are more famous than me,” Ye Futian responded.

The divine roc glared at him. This fellow knew nothing about being humble. However, based on their brief exchange before this, the divine roc knew that Ye Futian was not simple. Otherwise, it would not have let him enter the relic.

The divine roc said, “The person who appeared just now could break through my defenses. Your luck is not bad. You came earlier. But you gave up the opportunity to inherit the teachings.”

It seemed like the divine roc was slightly dissatisfied with Ye Futian’s decision.

Ye Futian explained, “Senior, didn’t I explain this to you before? They are on par with me. They are all top figures. If one of them manages to inherit the Will of the Great Emperor, then it means that the person has received the recognition of the Great Emperor. That person is surely the most suitable candidate.”

The divine roc retorted, “Why didn’t you try it yourself then? You can borrow the will for meditation as well.”

“If I try, I am worried that the Great Emperor will choose me right away,” Ye Futian said nonchalantly as he shrugged his shoulders. The divine roc glared at him, then it shifted its gaze away and let out a long sigh. This fellow was so annoying!

“I shouldn’t have let you pass,” the divine roc mumbled depressingly.

Ye Futian beamed. Right now, an overbearing aura emanated from within the divine palace. The divine light overwhelmed the entire palace and expanded outwards. A divine emperor’s might permeated the space.

Ye Futian was stunned. He turned around, and his gaze penetrated through the walls. Then, he smiled as he said to the divine roc, “From the looks of it, it’s too late for Senior to regret your decision now. As I have said before, they will not let you down.”

The divine roc also observed the palace intently. It similarly sensed a powerful Demonic Qi permeating the space. Terrifying rumbling sounds could be heard. The entire ancient space was shaking, seemingly on the verge of collapsing.

With a dash, Ye Futian entered the palace. The gigantic divine roc shrunk its body and went through the door as well.

Inside the palace, all the carcasses of the demonic beasts turned to dust. The space was collapsing.

The blade of grass floated above the head of a cultivator. It emanated a terrifying aura. The chosen cultivator was Gu Dongliu.

The blade of grass radiated with dazzling divine light. It was the same for Gu Dongliu’s body. The two formed a resonance. Then, the crowd witnessed the blade of grass seeping into the glabella of Gu Dongliu. It left a green mark on his forehead.

“Third Brother has comprehended the teachings.” Ye Futian was a little surprised. However, this turn of the event seemed logical. Third Brother had received the teachings of a Demon God before this. When they were in the Heavenly Mandate Realm, the Laws of Origin of the Demon Realm surged into his body. On top of inheriting the Will of the Demon God, Gu Dongliu also inherited an Imperial Star.

Now, it seemed logical for him to resonate with this blade of grass.

Third Brother now owned the teachings of a few Great Emperors as well. Ye Futian hoped to break through to the next plane as soon as possible. After Gu Dongliu had undergone the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, he could also stand at the peak of cultivation.

Demonic divine light circled Gu Dongliu’s body. His body was dazzling. The surrounding cultivators were a little envious of him. Before this, Gu Dongliu was not the only one who could comprehend the teachings hidden in the blade of grass. Zi Feng, Long Chen, Jun, and many other cultivators also comprehended part of the teachings. However, in the end, the blade of grass chose Gu Dongliu. Obviously, it meant that he was the best candidate.

“Who is he?” the divine roc asked Ye Futian. It could sense that Gu Dongliu was also extraordinary, but his cultivation plane was slightly lower than that of Ye Futian.

“He’s my Third Brother,” Ye Futian introduced. “Senior, don’t worry. After my Third Brother inherits the Will of the Great Emperor, he will not bring any shame to the name of the Great Emperor.”

“Great.” The divine roc nodded and said, “I will leave things to your Third Brother then.”

“Senior, you can follow me. Since Third Brother has now inherited the Will of the Great Emperor, won’t you consider cultivating together with him?” suggested Ye Futian. He wanted to recruit a powerful companion for Gu Dongliu.

The ability of the divine roc was naturally indisputable.

However, the divine roc shook its head and said, “My mission is complete. I should disappear now.”

“Disappear?” exclaimed Ye Futian as he revealed a strange look. Then, he sensed the aura of the divine roc weakening. It was weakening at a rapid rate. The independent space was also collapsing. Huge boulders kept falling.

“Senior,” said Ye Futian as his heart trembled. “What is going on?”

A powerful life aura surged out from his figure and flowed into the divine roc. He attempted to stop the divine roc from growing weaker.

“It is pointless. I only managed to survive by being the companion of the Great Emperor. Now that the Great Emperor has found someone to inherit his teachings, I should be on my way,” replied the divine roc. Its figure was gradually turning to stone as its life aura rapidly withered.

Right then, Gu Dongliu turned around and bowed towards the divine roc. He said, “Many thanks, Senior.”

The aura of the divine roc grew weaker as it looked at Gu Dongliu and said, “A blade of green grass can break the heavens. I hope you can pass down his will.”

As it said this, the divine roc completely lost its life force and became a statue. Then, it gradually disintegrated and disappeared.

Ye Futian could only watch as this scene played out. He could not do anything to stop it.

“It only survived due to the Will of the Great Emperor and remained guarding this place. It had already perished in ancient times,” Gu Dongliu told Ye Futian. Ye Futian nodded. So that was the reason. The divine roc was connected to the blade of grass; therefore, it could use the powerful Will of the Great Emperor. When Gu Dongliu inherited the blade of green grass, it completed its mission and disappeared from the world.

The independent space completely collapsed, leaving behind a pile of rubble. Ye Futian and the others appeared outside. He looked at Gu Dongliu and said, “A blade of green grass can break the heavens. This Great Emperor must have had an extraordinary will in ancient times.”

Gu Dongliu nodded his head. He could sense the power of the Will of the Great Emperor.

“Who is this Great Emperor?” asked Ye Futian.

“He was called Undying Great Emperor,” answered Gu Dongliu.

Undying Great Emperor!

Ye Futian was slightly shocked. An existence known as Undying Great Emperor had eventually perished. Although he had survived on this ancient battlefield by becoming a blade of grass, he was still considered dead. For a Great Emperor to have such a title, it was definitely not simply given.

“Let’s go. We will continue finding other fateful encounters,” said Ye Futian. The rest of the group nodded in agreement. They were full of anticipation.

They had not been here for very long and Ye Wuchen as well as Gu Dongliu had both obtained fateful encounters with Great Emperors. On this ancient continent, they would all have opportunities.

However, there were countless other cultivators on this continent now. Their group also needed to make haste. Otherwise, the opportunities would be seized by other cultivators.

They did not know that, during the time they had spent cultivating, many other cultivators had discovered extraordinary places on the continent, such as the abyss their group had previously encountered.

These places were full of danger and mystery. Many people entered these places but never made it back out alive!
