The Legend of Futian
Chapter 2519 - Seeking Aid
Of course, Chief Xihai would not regret it. He was merely enraged and had an intense murderous intent.
Now, the members of Yingzhou City were all pondering the same question—how did Ye Futian kill Zhong Miao? Did he rely on his ability, or did he join forces with other people to hunt down Zhong Miao?
Up until Zhong Miao's death, he did not believe that Ye Futian had survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. Zhong Miao instead believed that he had cultivated special techniques. No one from the outside world had fought against Ye Futian, so they knew even less about him. However, one thing was known by everyone—during the storm of conflict, Ye Futian was indeed a Level-Eight Renhuang.
Over the years, as powerful as Ye Futian was, he would only be at the ninth-tier.
This was the ironclad rule of the cultivation world. A Level-Nine cultivator couldn't defeat a Tribulation cultivator. There were no exceptions. Even the figures with heaven-defying talent could not do so. This was a natural divide that could not be crossed.
Tribulation cultivators could suppress Renhuangs in terms of the domain of the Great Path and law.
So, how did Ye Futian manage to defeat Zhong Miao?
When Zhong Miao went over to hunt Ye Futian down, had the latter already laid out his trap in the West Sea and joined forces with the top cultivators of the Ziwei Segmentum to kill Zhong Miao?
In the Ziwei Segmentum, there seemed only to be two Tribulation cultivators. Even if they joined forces, would Zhong Miao actually fail to escape?
Ye Futian could have also relied on a divine item instead of joining forces with others. Everyone remembered that Ye Futian relied on the combat ability of the divine body of Shenjia the Great Emperor back in the day. They also knew that Ye Futian inherited the teachings of many Great Emperors.
It might also be that Ye Futian still had powerful trump cards that allowed him to emerge victorious despite the odds and kill Zhong Miao. The possibility of this being the case seemed greater.
On the ship that the cultivators of West Imperial Palace were on, they naturally could hear the discussion of the crowd on the shore of the Yingzhou Sea. Xi Chiyao said, "Which possibility do you all believe is more likely?"
"Ye Futian should have relied on special methods. This person has many inheritances and is mysterious and unfathomable. It is normal for him to possess a trump card. If that is the case, he should have intentionally lured Zhong Miao after him and then killed him off afterward," said an elder on the side. This was also the answer that most people believed.
"Could it possibly be that he did it with his own strength," said Xi Chiyao, but she stopped halfway. It seemed rather farfetched. Although she acknowledged Ye Futian's talents and abilities, the possibility of this being the case was too low.
As expected, the people beside her all shook their heads. The elder continued, "It is highly unlikely."
Xi Chiyao nodded her head and did not say any more. She was just curious as to what had happened in the battle exactly.
Unfortunately, she had not been able to witness it herself.
"The members of the Domain Chief's Manor have all retreated. For a long time, they will most likely not dare to show themselves again," someone reported. This caused Xi Chiyao to reveal a smile. The overlord of the West Sea Domain and the cultivators of the West Sea Domain Chief's Manor were hiding in their base and did not dare to come out?
It was so ironic.
At the start, Chief Xihai's aggressive attitude was overbearing and authoritative. However, he had most likely become a laughing stock for the others now.
"Look over there," exclaimed someone who was standing on the shore of the Yingzhou Sea. Everyone looked into the distance and saw a silhouette with white hair floating on the sea. He advanced towards them. He looked suave and had an extraordinary temperament. He was none other than Ye Futian.
He had come again!
Everyone felt their hearts tremble in fear when they saw his face. After killing Zhong Miao, Ye Futian had once again approached the shore of the Yingzhou Sea. From the looks of it, he would not spare the cultivators of the Domain Chief's Manor.
To be put into such a tight spot by a junior, the cultivators of the Domain Chief's Manor would certainly feel aggrieved. This kind of situation had never happened before.
"Renhuang Ye." Right at this moment, a crisp voice called out. Ye Futian, who was standing on the water, turned around and saw the figure standing on the deck.
It was Xi Chiyao. Before this, he had noticed her presence. However, they were barely acquaintances. Besides that, he had become the common enemy of everyone in the Divine Prefecture after being targeted by the Imperial Palace. In Ye Futian's opinion, all the forces of the Divine Prefecture would surely distance themselves from him because of this reason. Therefore, he was somewhat surprised to hear Xi Chiyao greeting him.
"Goddess Chiyao," Ye Futian greeted Xi Chiyao, nodding slightly.
"It's been a long time since we last met. Why don't you come on board so that we can chat?" invited Xi Chiyao. All the cultivators on the shore of the Yingzhou Sea were shocked when they witnessed this scene. Everyone knew that Ye Futian was the successor of Emperor Ye Qing.
Putting that fact aside, Ye Futian was now the mortal enemy of the Domain Chief's Manor. Xi Chiyao was a Goddess of West Imperial Palace. In a sense, she represented West Imperial Palace. She was practically giving the Domain Chief's Manor a slap in the face for her to invite Ye Futian onboard for a gathering now.
Everyone in the West Sea Domain knew that there was actually some competition between West Imperial Palace and the Domain Chief's Manor. However, the situation was a little different this time after all, since Ye Futian had just killed the second-in-command of the Domain Chief's Manor.
Ye Futian was also taken aback. However, since the other party extended an invitation, he would not reject her. With a flash, he landed on the deck of the ship where Xi Chiyao was.
Xi Chiyao beamed with joy; her smile was mesmerizing.
"Are you not worried that West Imperial Palace might harm you?" teased Xi Chiyao. There were Tribulation level cultivators on her ship. If they launched a sneak attack and encircled Ye Futian in their domains of the Great Path, how did he plan to deal with that?
Did Ye Futian act so boldly because he was very confident with his skills and was not afraid of them at all? Or did he have blind faith in her?
"I believe that Goddess Chiyao will not take the risk and allow West Imperial Palace to become the second Domain Chief's Manor," replied Ye Futian nonchalantly. He spoke with a confident tone. It was as though if West Imperial Palace really attacked him, they would surely face the same fate as the Domain Chief's Manor.
The cultivators of West Imperial Palace were somewhat displeased when they heard this. However, they did nothing about it. They realized that Ye Futian was so ruthless towards the Domain Chief's Manor for another reason. He wanted to use the incident as a deterrent to warn the various forces of the Divine Prefecture. All of them should act cautiously and should not attack him recklessly. Otherwise, they would end up like the West Sea Domain Chief's Manor.
Xi Chiyao did not take Ye Futian's words to heart. She smiled and said, "Since you said so, does it mean that you are confident that with your ability, you can put up a fight with cultivators who are at the Tribulation Plane?"
Ye Futian did not respond to this question. He lured Zhong Miao away from the city before killing him. He did so because he did not want the people from the outside world to know more about his ability. He was well aware that the crowd would have all sorts of speculation, but they would never know the truth. He would keep them guessing. The outcome was more than enough to speak for itself.
Xi Chiyao's gaze was locked onto Ye Futian's eyes. She couldn't see the answer she wanted from his gaze.
"Rumor has it that Renhuang Ye has been to Spirit Mountain of Western Heaven for training, and you have mastered Celerity," Xi Chiyao continued to pry. "Surely, you had obtained quite a few faithful encounters when you were on Spirit Mountain, right?" Her tone was full of curiosity.
"Goddess Chiyao is certainly interested in me," Ye Futian teased.
"Right now, everyone in the West Sea Domain is interested in you," Xi Chiyao responded.
"I met The Buddha when I was on Spirit Mountain," Ye Futian revealed. "The Buddha allowed me to cultivate on the mountain. So, I spent more than a decade memorizing the Buddhist Sutra by heart. I have been enlightened, and it was helpful in improving my own cultivation."
A glint of surprise flashed in Xi Chiyao's eyes. She did not expect Ye Futian to share this information with her.
"Renhuang Ye has indeed obtained a great fateful encounter," Xi Chiyao said with a smile. "I thought that you would never satisfy my curiosity."
"I have a favor to ask from Goddess Chiyao," Ye Futian said. Xi Chiyao's eyes twinkled. Now she knew why Ye Futian told her the truth. So it turned out that he had a favor to ask from her.
"Renhuang Ye, what's the favor?" Xi Chiyao inquired with a smile.
Ye Futian said, "The West Sea is vast. I heard that there are many celestial mountains in the West Sea Domain. May I know where I can find top-tier elixir recipes and herbs?"
In reality, he came to the West Sea Domain for two goals. The first goal was to deal with the Domain Chief's Manor. The second goal was to seek ways to improve his alchemy.
In terms of alchemy, the West Sea Domain was ranked first among the 18 domains of the Divine Prefecture.
Xi Chiyao was shocked when she heard Ye Futian's request. Was he actually seeking elixir recipes?
What did he plan to do?
"Who wants to concoct pills?" Xi Chiyao did not reply to his question right away; instead, she probed eagerly. Even though Ye Futian had inherited alchemy techniques, he seldom revealed it in public. Not many people knew about this particular ability of his. His talents and his combat ability outshone his alchemy skill.
"I am the one who wants to concoct pills," Ye Futian responded.
Xi Chiyao gave Ye Futian a good look and said, "Renhuang Ye is indeed impressive."
"Currently, the Divine Prefecture no longer has any top-tier Alchemy grandmaster. Tianyan City is famous for their armory skill, but nowhere is famous for their alchemy," Xi Chiyao said. "Renhuang Ye has been to Spirit Mountain. There is a Great Buddha in Western Heaven who is also a top-tier Alchemy grandmaster. His name is Medicine Buddha Lord. Why would Renhuang Ye miss this opportunity to learn from him?"
Ye Futian explained, "I cultivated on Spirit Mountain only because the Buddhist sects had graced me with such an opportunity. Besides that, Medicine Buddha Lord never revealed himself throughout my stay there. I had no reason to seek his guidance, nor did I have the opportunity to do so." Xi Chiyao nodded understandingly. What he said was indeed true. Medicine Buddha Lord had an extraordinary standing in the Western Heaven. He was not someone others could easily approach for guidance.
"Compared to other domains, the West Sea Domain is rather famous in alchemy. Several Deity Islands in this domain have given birth to many powerful Alchemy masters," Xi Chiyao told Ye Futian. "If we were to pinpoint a place in the domain that is most renowned for alchemy, it would be Mount Jiuyi. It is an island as well as a celestial mountain. Anyway, what kind of elixir recipes and herbs are you looking for?"
"Recipes and herbs that are suitable for cultivators at the peak of the Renhuang Plane. Or even more powerful ones," responded Ye Futian.
"It might be easy to obtain recipes and herbs that are suitable for cultivators at the peak of the Renhuang Plane. However, it isn't easy to get anything more powerful than that. Alchemists who can concoct such pills are even rarer," Xi Chiyao said. "But I will ask my men to pay attention to any relevant information. If we find anything, I will let you know."
"Alright." Ye Futian nodded and said, "Goddess Chiyao, thank you in advance for your help."
"During the battle in the Original Realm, I once agreed to follow and cultivate with you. Now, if you don't mind, I'm willing to accompany you while you explore the West Sea Domain. I can be your tour guide too," Xi Chiyao offered. However, Ye Futian shook his head and rejected her, saying, "Thank you for your offer, but I'm sure you are aware of my current situation. It's better for me to travel alone. I'll stay here for some time. If you have any news, you can find me anytime."
Ye Futian asked for Xi Chiyao's help because of her identity as the Goddess of West Imperial Palace. She had her fingers on the pulse of happenings in the West Sea Domain. Right now, Ye Futian desperately needed to concoct more pills.
Just as his teacher, Qi Xuangang, had said, Ye Futian alone was not enough to ensure the sovereignty of the Ziwei Segmentum. He needed to build everyone in the Ziwei Segmentum up as soon as possible.
