The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2439: Comprehension?

The Six Desire Heavenly Palace appeared peaceful outside, but because the four cultivators were comprehending the divine body simultaneously, the heavenly palace was under a state of constant suppression.

However, Ye Futian continued cultivating quietly as if no one was around.

On this day, Lord Ye of Yemo Heaven descended on Yangxin Mountain and came to him.

"Greetings, Lord Ye," Ye Futian said while he gave a slight bow. These three had been here for a few days, so he knew of their identities.

"Mmm." Lord Ye nodded slightly at Ye Futian and said, "You are considered one of us now. Would you follow me to Yemo Heaven to cultivate?"

"I'm able to cultivate quietly here at Six Desires Heavenly Palace. I have no plan to leave for the time being," Ye Futian replied. He knew very well that none of their conversations could escape Lord Six Desires' ears, and Ye Futian understood what to say and what not to say.

"Don't worry—you are also counted as one of our three clans. As long as you want, you may go to whichever place to cultivate. Lord Six Desires can't stop you." Lord Ye continued to advocate, but Ye Futian remained unmoved. In fact, he seemed quite uninterested.

To Ye Futian, there was no difference between going to Yemo Heaven and staying at Six Desires Heavenly Palace.

In any of those places, he would be under their control and placed under house arrest.

Ye Futian understood very well what all of them were after.

"I appreciate my Lord's kindness." Ye Futian continued to respond calmly without much emotion. Lord Ye didn't say anything more but continued via voice transmission instead. "I know you are under the coercion of Lord Six Desires, but you can see from the situation today that the three of us have an absolute advantage against Lord Six Desires. As long as you are willing to comply with our wishes, we will take you away from here. Furthermore, we have no malice against you, and we will not harm you. Lord Six Desires, on the other hand, will most likely end you once you've given him what he wants."

"Elder, I am already under the tutelage of Six Desires Heavenly Palace, so Lord Six Desires will not do me harm," Ye Futian responded via voice transmission. Lord Ye stared into his eyes and transmitted, "If this is the case, then you, too, are also under our tutelage. Pass on the method you have cultivated to us three, and we will see if we can comprehend it and give you some pointers."

It was rumored that Lord Six Desires had obtained the divine method from Ye Futian. As Ye Futian had been under house arrest for many days, presumably this was true. No way Lord Six Desires would not covet the divine method in Ye Futian's possession, so they, too, wanted to have a chance to cultivate it as well.

"I must ask your forgiveness in this matter, elder," Ye Futian refused through voice transmission.

"Mmm?" Lord Ye frowned. An indistinct coercion was released from his body and descended upon Ye Futian.

"I hope Elder can understand the difficulties I'm facing." Ye Futian continued to communicate via voice transmission. Lord Ye responded with a disapproving snort.

Then, a cold and indifferent voice said, "Lord Ye, what do you think you are doing? Are you threatening this young man in secret? You said that you want Ye Futian to cultivate with you, but this is how you are treating him?"

The person who spoke at this time was none other than Lord Six Desires.

Lord Ye glanced at Ye Futian with cold eyes but soon left in a huff.

However, he could sense that Ye Futian was deeply wary of Lord Six Desires; therefore, he acted with extreme caution.

"Ye Futian, Lord Ye has told me about you. If you want, the three of us can help you get out of this jam." A voice came landed on Yangxin Mountain, entering Ye Futian's ears. This time the person who was speaking was Lord Liberty.

Obviously, Lord Ye had had a talk with him, so Lord Liberty was now trying to persuade him, seeking to alter Ye Futian's mind.

"I am afraid I don't deserve such consideration," Ye Futian continued, "But, it's true that I have no intention of leaving for the time being."

Lord Liberty raised his brows slightly. It seemed that Ye Futian was still unwilling to take the chance.

"What is it that you want?" Another voice now came into his ears; it was Lord Initial Zen who had spoke.

The voice of Lord Initial Zen seemed to ooze a magical power as he was speaking to Ye Futian, "You killed Great Elder Motian and are now trapped inside the Six Desires Heavenly Palace. I know this was done against your will. You may speak freely about what you want with us."

Ye Futian was somewhat moved at this gesture, but soon he composed himself again and responded, "I have nothing to ask for now."

"Think about it first and find me later." Lord Initial Zen's voice was like the sound of Zen, which was extremely mesmerizing to those who heard him.

"Thank you, my Lord," Ye Futian responded, but he was secretly alarmed. Among these four cultivators, only Lord Initial Zen was a Buddhist cultivator. Furthermore, judging from the actions of these people, Lord Initial Zen might be the one who posed the greatest threat to him.

Of course, he would not easily trust anyone here.

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed by. On this day, another group of people descended from the sky and came to Six Desires Heavenly Palace. This group of people had unusual and extraordinary temperaments. Upon their arrival, even the eyes of Lord Six Desires looked a little grave. Sitting there, he looked at the visitors and said, "You have come from afar. Please enter the heavenly palace for a respite."

"There is no need." The cultivator in the lead was also someone who had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. He glanced at the divine body below, then said, "Saint Zhenchan asked us to bring you a message. We heard that there is a divine body obtained by Six Desires Heavenly Palace. You may comprehend it for a period of time here, but after three months, you must transport the divine body to Zhenchan Hall."

The eyes of Lord Six Desires and the other three cultivators narrowed slightly, and there was disquiet in their hearts; even Saint Zhenchan was meddling in their business now.

Sure enough, even someone at Saint Zhenchan's level wanted to witness something like the divine body. These emissaries were sent to let them know that they had only three months before they had to surrender the divine body.

They were well acquainted with the likes of Saint Zhenchan. Although they were all existences who had survived the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, there was still a great chasm between their realms. Saint Zhenchan was one of the Buddhas of the West Heaven, the controlling principality of the Western World. The control he had over his territory was total and absolute, his cultivation was monstrous, and the forces within his control were most terrifying.

Lord Six Desires and Saint Zhenchan may be technically in the same realm, but if they were to battle, Lord Six Desires would not be an able contender in the least.

The emissaries did not bother to wait for Lord Six Desires to respond before they turned around and left. It was as if they were here to announce the instructions, and Lord Six Desires' consent was unnecessary. In the world of cultivation, this had always been the case.

Ye Futian, who was cultivating, heard it as well. It seemed that finally, someone stronger was getting involved, and as a result, the pressure on Lord Six Desires would be greater.

"Three more months!" Lord Six Desires secretly exclaimed. He looked towards the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor, urging even stronger willpower as if he was willing to try no matter the cost. He must control this divine body, and as long as he could control it with elevated strength, what more could Saint Zhenchan do to him?

Clearly, the other three cultivators had heard the proclamation as well. Out of all of them, Lord Initial Zen was the calmest. He belonged to the Buddhist sect and came from the same clan as Saint Zhenchan. If he ever encountered Saint Zhenchan in person, he was obligated to address him as his senior brother.

As time went by, on this day, the divine body unexpectedly revealed rays of divine light. It seemed that the divine power inside had been urged somehow, and more was gathering.

"Huh?" Lord Six Desire's divine consciousness frantically poured into it as the power of the Great Path invaded the divine body. This caused the divine body to roar and howl. Golden divine light surrounding heaven and the earth with astounding aura. The other three major cultivators narrowed their eyes as they beheld this sight. Their eyes became heavy and serious all at once as the coercion of the Great Path was being unleashed.

At Yangxin Mountain, Ye Futian closed his eyes, and a picture appeared in his mind. It was the picture before the great hall!
