The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2794 Path of the Great Emperor

Cleanup and aftermath work started both inside and outside the Ye Imperial Palace. Many people became busy. In this battle, the Ye Imperial Palace's damages were limited. The worst of the damage was outside the Ye Imperial Palace. When the five Ancient God Clans had arrived, they had turned beings into dust with just a flick of their finger. Too many people had died. Even if they were lucky not to die, they were still gravely injured.

These people came from the Ziwei Segmentum and 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. They were all cultivators who believed in Ye Futian.

The vast sky and land were immersed in sadness and anger.

At this time, Hua Jieyu, Xia Qingyuan, and the others appeared somewhere. The light of life enveloped the surrounding strong cultivators, and many lotuses of life bloomed. Buddhist light also glowed to heal the injured people here.

Many of the people recognized Hua Jieyu and asked, "Lady, were those people from the Ancient God Clan reborn Great Emperors?"

"Yes." Hua Jieyu nodded.

Crack! They clenched their fists tightly, and furious flames of hatred jumped out. Before, they had been filled with reverence for Great Emperors. Those were high and mighty existences that they looked up to, but after this time, it was hatred and anger.

These Great Emperors had butchered them, viewing their lives as weeds. They were all massacred like ants.

Was this how Great Emperors were?

"Lady, the Palace Lord will avenge us, right?" someone asked. Even if the enemy were Great Emperors, they still believed that Ye Futian would take revenge. They had no hope, so they could only look to Ye Futian.

"Yes." Hua Jieyu nodded. Her telekinesis covered the vast space. When she discovered the injured, she used the transmission of her voice and had them come to this area to be treated.

"Yes." The others nodded solemnly. The flames of revenge were burning within them right now. Their Palace Lord must become an emperor in the future and lead them to revenge.

Everyone was busy. Only Ye Futian-Palace Lord of the Ye Imperial Palace—cultivated in solitude.

Inside the Ye Imperial Palace, Ye Futian sat with crossed legs. Strands of divine light circulated in his body, wrapping around him. It did not fit in with the Qi of the world. It was like a different kind of aura.

He didn't have any kind of elemental force within his body. His Life Palace was also empty, and the World Tree had become illusory. The Divine Ruler had disappeared, melded into his body, flesh, and spiritual soul. It had become one with him.

The elemental forces he was skilled insword, water, fire, thunder, space, life, and more—had all disappeared. Breaking off the Path meant breaking all Will of the Paths. It was ridding them completely, going from something to nothing and becoming his most original self.

Legends said that before the Heavenly Path, the world had been nothingness. It had been a turbid world, and only after that did the world birth life. The laws of the world were then created, which led to the birth of the "Path." Cultivators studied the world, nature, the usage of the world laws and thus controlled the "Path" to possess greater power.

An illusory item suddenly appeared in this world of nothingness. This illusory item gradually grew a face and then a body, arms, and legs. It formed a humanoid shape. It was Ye Futian's figure that had appeared in this world.

This figure was not created by Ye Futian's consciousness. It was more like the consciousness of this world of nothingness had birthed another him. He stood in the void and perceived everything there.

He was thinking. This void had birthed a strand of Ye Futian's spirituality as if representing the consciousness of this world of nothingness.

Ye Futian's heart was very shocked right now. He thought of the ancient Heavenly Path. There had been Eight Legions under the Heavenly Path that ruled the heavens and managed the laws of the world. The so-called laws of the world were probably the Heavenly Path itself.

The Heavenly Path was the law.

Since the Eight Legions were under the Heavenly Path's rule, the Heavenly Path had its own consciousness.

This was also why the Heavenly Path collapsed after a group of extraordinary figures were born and wanted to go against nature, attacking the Path. They were unwilling to submit to the Heavenly Path, wanted to be above the Path, and thus went against nature, starting the War of the Gods. Then the Age of the Gods ended.

Ye Futian fell into deep thought. In the ancient Age of the Gods, there had been Eight Legions below the Heavenly Path. However, it probably had not been only the Eight Legions. There must have been many Great Emperors on the side of the Heavenly Path. The Heavenly Path represented order. Many Great Emperors probably had reached their level due to the Heavenly Path, while those who wanted to attack the Heavenly Path may have taken another path.

For example, Shenjia the Great had founded his own Path. He'd believed that there was no path in the world, so he created his own law and order. He had billions of runes within his body. Each rune was a law or order. In a way, this was his path. If he carved the word "sky," it would transform into a sky. If he carved the word "sword," then it would become an indestructible way of swordsmanship.

The Demonic Lord and others were most likely this type as well.

Then what was the significance of what was happening now?

It meant that he had also stepped onto this path. However, Ye Futian felt that things were not so simple. He had reached this step by coincidence. It was not because of his comprehension. There was also his life spirit —the World Tree. Right now, Ye Futian guessed that the World Tree was related to the Heavenly Path. It was a very brave guess.

But the many things that had happened all pointed to this hypothesis.

Thus, would another world evolve in his inner body and create another Heavenly Path?

What kind of Divine Power would then appear in his world?

While Ye Futian pondered, the shred of consciousness that had been born also seemed to be considering.

The Divine Power that Donghuang the Great was skilled in was Revelation. The Human Ancestor studied the Force of Mankind, which represented the Way of Mankind. There was also the Vajra Divine Power, Infinite Divine Power, etc. What about him?

Ye Futian had a feeling that he'd stepped onto a path different from everyone else.

"Divine Power!" Ye Futian murmured.

Everything in the world had gone from nothing to something, from something to nothing. Now, everything had been destroyed. Only the ancient tree's aura remained. Meanwhile, only one kind of Divine Power matched with the World Tree life spirit.

It was creation!

If the world within his body represented a small Heavenly Path, he would soon create his own order.

Kaboom! When this thought formed, a huge boom sounded from the world within his body. This world of nothingness shook violently, and the illusory Ye Futian swept his hand across, cutting down on the nothingness. The world of nothingness was abruptly cut into two. The top was the sky; the bottom was the land.

Strands of vitality were born from the world -one yin and one yang. They grew in the world.

All of this had evolved naturally, rather than being controlled by Ye Futian's mind. It was like the natural order born from this world.

"From nothing to something!" Ye Futian quietly observed all of these changes. In the outside world, his body had halos of divine light, and he stood out from the others.

At that moment, ye Futian seemed to have found the cultivation path for himself.

Also, Ye Futian felt vaguely that this path might lead straight to the Great Emperor Plane. He had not become an emperor directly before because this world had not been completed!
