Ye Futian looked at Master. He faintly sensed that Master might be a cultivator who comprehended the Law of Time.

Even though Master was an ethereal existence, Ye Futian still believed that this did not prevent him from comprehending the Path and cultivating. He merely faced some restrictions. Master might have been comprehending the Path here, awaiting the day he managed to reach enlightenment.

“Master, have you reached such a level?” asked Ye Futian.

After comprehending the Law of Time, Ye Futian believed that altering the speed of the flow of time was already a powerful application of said law. From the looks of it now, his understanding was still too shallow, and his imagination was not bold enough yet.

Just as Master said, if one cultivated and reached such a plane that they could see the timeline, they could see the past and the future.

If one could travel along this timeline, they could change the past and the future as they pleased. What level of power would that be?

At least for now, Ye Futian could not imagine it.

“If there is truly a timeline and we can travel to the past and future, is it possible for two versions of myself to exist at the same time? If not, how would the situation be?” mumbled Ye Futian to himself. Could the current him travel to the past? If he did so, would there be two versions of himself?

“Me?” Master appeared calm. He said, “What I have merely scratched the tip of the iceberg.”

Ye Futian nodded slightly and did not inquire further. When Master said the tip of the iceberg, he wondered exactly how large the tip was.

Had Master managed to peer into the secrets of Time?

However, since Master was a mysterious person, it was futile for Ye Futian to inquire further if he chose not to reveal anything.

“Many people claim that the world will soon experience a major tribulation. I hope Master can give me some pointers regarding this issue,” Ye Futian said.

“Since what is about to happen is a tribulation, it is inevitable. No one can stay out of it. Especially since you are prone to tribulations, you can’t run away from it. However, you can change yourself and face it with poise,” Master explained. “What you have been talking about is all well and good. However, the heavens and the earth are undergoing huge changes now. The Ancient Emperors have been summoned back. They were supposed to have perished during the collapse of the Heavenly Path. Their return implies that someone has mastered the power to bring them back. You need to be careful.”

After the collapse of the Heavenly Path, there was a world-destroying catastrophe. The more powerful one’s cultivation was, the harder it was to escape that calamity. The various gods perished. Some managed to escape this universe. Many Great Emperors existed in other forms in this world.

They were no longer living beings but spirits and wills. However, they were now being summoned back. That meant that the Human Ancestor might possess an unparalleled power.

Hence, Master cautioned him to be wary.

“Thank you, Master.” Ye Futian said while nodding.

“Go and cultivate. There is not much time left,” advised Master.

“Hmm.” Ye Futian nodded. Master’s advice might be a warning as well.

From the looks of it, the tribulation was just around the corner. There was not much time left.

However, time passed 81 times faster in Ye Futian’s world. Therefore, he and his team had a little more time than others to make preparations. Ye Futian hoped that the arrival of the tribulation could be delayed as much as possible.

If the tribulation happened one year from now, it meant that he had 81 years in his world to cultivate. Aside from him, everyone else in his world of the Micro Heavenly Path would benefit from this period of preparation too. They would gradually become Great Emperors. Nevertheless, the arrival of the tribulation would still be determined by the Supreme Beings, the existences who stood at the peak.

Therefore, there was an urgency for Ye Futian to further improve his abilities.

Ye Futian bid Master farewell and left Four Corner Village. He then returned to his world in the ninety-nine heavens of the Heaven Realm.

…

After returning to the ninety-nine heavens, Ye Futian went to see Donghuang the Great.

“Futian, how was your trip?” Donghuang the Great asked.

“I went to the Lower Worlds. I also visited the World of Buddhism and Master,” Ye Futian reported. “Father, please invite the members of the Imperial Palace in the Divine Prefecture and the cultivators from the World of Buddhism to cultivate in this Small World. Besides that, both parties are welcomed to elect some of their members to cultivate inside my world of the Micro Heavenly Path.”

On top of improving his abilities, Ye Futian also wished to strengthen the overall ability of his allies.

“Hmm.” Donghuang the Great nodded in agreement. “You can focus on cultivating for now. I will take care of the rest.”

Currently, the Heavenly Palace and Ye Imperial Palace, led by the Heaven Realm, the Imperial Palace in the Divine Prefecture, and the forces in Spirit Mountain were all allies. Considering the current situation, they would naturally unite to form a greater power. They would improve together so that they were better prepared for the upcoming tribulation.

No one knew how things would be when the tribulation befell them. Ye Futian had sent some items to the Devil World and the Dark World. He did not expect these two forces to side with him, but he still sent them treasures anyway because he wanted to help Yu Sheng and Ye Qingyao with their cultivation.

He was confident that, at the very least, Yu Sheng and Ye Qingyao would side with him.

Even though the Devil Emperor had significant influence over Yu Sheng, Ye Futian believed his relationship with the latter was stronger. Regardless of what happened, they could always trust each other.

After making all these arrangements, Ye Futian entered the ninety-nine heavens and cultivated in seclusion. He was getting ready for the upcoming tribulation.

…

While Ye Futian and the others were cultivating in the ninety-nine heavens, they did not sever their connections with the Outer Realms. Moreover, he had sent some treasures of Time to the Devil World and the Dark World. Therefore, the news of Ye Futian comprehending the Law of Time was no longer a secret. Soon, a rumor was widespread-

Ye Futian, the current Heavenly Emperor, had attained perfection in his cultivation. He had proven his Way at the Imperial Realm and had inherited the mantle of the Heavenly Emperor. He controlled the Law of Time and could rewrite time itself.

This news was undoubtedly shocking to many. How terrifying would a cultivator who controlled the Law of Time and could change the speed of time be? It meant that he essentially had an infinite amount of time for cultivation. A year of cultivation for the others might mean 100 years of cultivation for him.

After catching wind of this news, many cultivators wanted to cultivate in the ninety-nine heavens again. However, the gates of the ninety-nine heavens were already closed. The Heavenly Imperial Palace had stopped recruiting cultivators. The Heaven Realm would focus on increasing the quality instead of quantity of their troops moving forward.

This news was bad news for the Human Realm. If Ye Futian could change time, it meant that the Heaven Realm was growing stronger by the minute. The need to eradicate the Heaven Realm was even more dire now. The upcoming war was inevitable.

The Seven Realms enjoyed a period of peace. A gigantic storm was brewing. Everyone could sense the undercurrent. They were well-aware that once the storm erupted, it would turn the entire world upside down.

At the same time, the passageway located in the Ruins Continent of the Original Realm was often opened up. More and more cultivators arrived in this world. Perhaps, things went just like Ye Futian speculated. The location of their universe had been exposed, so the cultivators from other universes had come seeking opportunities.

The seven Great Emperors, whom Ye Futian killed before this, might have been the trailblazers for a super force. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why all seven of them cultivated the same power. All of them used the Power of Judgment.

As of now, no one could tell how the future would be!
