Supre Swordlord had originally been a mber of the Taishang Domain. He was a legendary figure in the Divine Prefecture and an old monstrous existence.
Such a figure of legend normally would not have crossed paths with Ye Futian at all, and wouldn’t have had any confrontations with him. If the tomb of the gods had not appeared, they would not have encountered each other. However, now that the ancient continent had appeared, the cultivators of the various worlds all ca here. Hence, Supre Swordlord and Ye Futian had the chance to appear in the sa location.
Supre Swordlord had already been the first Sword Celestial in the Divine Prefecture centuries ago. Now, several centuries later, his power was already beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. With a re sentence, even Two Tribulation Plane cultivators had obediently retreated. They did not dare to defy him.
Only Ye Futian did not retreat.
Although Ye Futian had destroyed an Ancient God Clan before, that was because the Will of the Great Emperor of Tianyan City had been eradicated by Great Emperor Ziwei. Even with the Will of the Great Emperor, an existence like Supre Swordlord could destroy an Ancient God Clan single-handedly.
Figures at this level no longer cared about the things re mortals cared about. They were already half a step ahead and had seen the view from the highest cultivation plane. They would not be bothered with mundane traditions and power. They only sought one goal and that was the highest plane.
They essentially did not pay heed to the grudges of the world. Normally, these figures would not be seen. The appearance of the tomb of the gods caused them to have hopes of taking a step to the next level. Hence, they erged again in the world.
His title as Supre Swordlord ant he stood at the very top.
He swept a glance at Ye Futian in the sky. He pointed his finger at the sky again and a unique swordsmanship imdiately ripped apart the Tremoring Pulses bursting forth from Sky Tremor. It penetrated and tore them apart as it charged toward Ye Futian’s figure.
The imperial arm was still just a weapon in the end. Without the activation of the Great Emperor’s own will, Ye Futian’s cultivation was unable to unleash the true might of the imperial arm. His Way was still just his alone and he could only activate a sliver of will in the imperial arm.
As for Supre Swordlord, he had already moved on to the next level. Ye Futian had killed the Lord of Tianyan City and Wang Xiao. However, before a demigod, things would not play out the sa way they had before. No matter how powerful the cultivations of the Lord of Tianyan City and Wang Xiao had been, they had remained at the Two Tribulation Plane and had not transcended. Hence, against Ye Futian wielding an imperial arm, they essentially were fated to be killed instantly and could not put up a fight.
Ye Futian sensed the penetrating power of the Sword Will. Even the power unleashed by Sky Tremor was unable to completely block it. His figure flashed, and he disappeared from where he stood, appearing in a different location.
The Sword Will shot up to the high heavens and left behind astonishing streaks in the sky.
Supre Swordlord shifted his gaze to look at Ye Futian, who had appeared in another location. Even he was impressed by Ye Futian’s swift movents. He moved without leaving a trace, as expected of Buddhist Celerity. No wonder it was listed as one of the Six Superpowers in Buddhist sects. It was miraculous.
Ye Futian was similarly sizing up Supre Swordlord. Based on their brief exchange just now, Ye Futian had more or less figured out how terrifying this near-deity-level figure was. In the past, when he was fighting with Fang Ru, he had actually borrowed an external force. He used both the power of the Ziwei Segntum and the Will of the Great Emperor in battle, yet he still could not defeat Fang Ru.
This ti, he relied on the imperial arm to put up a fight with Supre Swordlord. Ye Futian wondered who was stronger, Supre Swordlord or Fang Ru.
“You appear as though you are only at the Renhuang Plane, but your combat ability far exceeds that of a Renhuang. Why is that?” Supre Swordlord asked Ye Futian. He was rather curious. Ye Futian’s cultivation plane was at the peak of the Renhuang Plane.
This was a fact known by all the cultivators. However, other people assud that Ye Futian had long broken through the shackles of the plane and had hidden his actual cultivation plane with a special technique. After all, many cultivators who were his subordinates at Ziwei Imperial Palace had undergone tribulations. With Ye Futian’s talents, it was illogical for him to have remained stagnant at the Renhuang Plane.
“I have my ways of hiding my cultivation plane,” Ye Futian replied. Of course, he would not speak the truth. He rely told the other party what all the other cultivators had speculated about.
Supre Swordlord felt strange. He actually could not see through Ye Futian’s trick of hiding his own cultivation?
“Even with the help of the imperial arm, you are no match for . If you hadn’t dodged my attack just now, you wouldn’t even be able to take one slash from ,” Supre Swordlord comnted coldly. He appeared like a sword as he stood perfectly straight there. His cold tone contained an unparalleled confidence.
“Why don’t I make a bet with you, Senior?” suggested Ye Futian.
“A bet?” repeated Supre Swordlord.
“I will not evade or dodge. I will receive your attack. If I can receive your slash, you will let have this relic,” Ye Futian said.
“What if you cannot take my attack?” inquired Supre Swordlord.
“If I fail, I will naturally perish from your attack. What else do I need to bet?” said Ye Futian as he looked at Supre Swordlord.
“I have never made a bet with anyone in my entire life. However, since you suggested it, I will give you a chance. If you dare to evade this slash, your friends will not leave this place alive,” said Supre Swordlord.
Since Ye Futian himself offered the bet, he would oblige. He wanted to see how brave Ye Futian was. Would he dodge or not?
If Ye Futian dodged the slash with Celerity, he would have gone against his word, and Supre Swordlord naturally would not hold back.
“All right,” said Ye Futian.
“You’d better be ready,” said Supre Swordlord as he looked at Ye Futian in the sky above him. “In reality, even if you possess Celerity, it is still impossible for you to avoid facing head-on. However, since you have so courage, I will entertain your request.”
His sleeve moved, and he extended a finger. The vast space imdiately beca a terrifying Sword Realm. Even the cultivators who had retreated far away could sense how terrifying this Sword Will was.
Supre Swordlord extended his hand and the space beca a world of the sword.
The crowd looked toward Supre Swordlord. He stood there like a supre sword god. This part of the sky was enveloped in Sword Will. The next mont, everyone felt a suffocating sensation. This sensation was as though the Sword Will had already enveloped the space before the sword was even drawn. There was anticipation as well as terror. It seed that once the sword was drawn, everything would be annihilated.
Ye Futian’s Natal Spirit was swaying inside his body. The will of the Great Path stored in his Life Spirit flowed all around his body before surging into a Sky Tremor. Imdiately, a solemn will burst forth. The divine light emanated by Sky Tremor at this mont was extrely alarming. The Tremoring Pulses were also far more powerful now. A portentous aura lood over the space.
Supre Swordlord raised his finger and pointed at the sky. A divine sword materialized in space and directly penetrated through the heavens and the earth. It was as though both space and ti had lted away. Only this sword remained.
His title Supre symbolized his vast encompassnt. His sword could annihilate all existences in the heavens and the earth.
Ye Futian’s imperial arm struck down the exact mont when Supre Swordlord raised his finger. Countless Tremoring Pulses swept out and an unparalleled divine light traversed across space, colliding with the divine sword.
For a brief mont, the entire world stopped. Silence overwheld the vast space. Then, a light of destruction erupted. All the other cultivators unleashed their strongest defense techniques. However, even so, many cultivators who had not undergone tribulations were severely injured. So even perished on the spot. Many Tribulation-level cultivators were also injured.
Shocking Sword Will appeared all around the three divine swords, shielding them from the destruction.
The entire sky turned dim for a mont.
Everything between the two of them turned to ashes. When the commotion died down, Ye Futian stood unscathed in the sky.
Supre Swordlord stared at Ye Futian. He did not say anything. This space appeared exceptionally silent.
Not only did Ye Futian not dodge it, he received the attack head-on.
“Youths nowadays are impressive!” Supre Swordlord exclaid after keeping quiet for a mont. As he said this, he left the space with his sword. His silhouette soon beca one with his sword.
Since he had lost, he would keep his word and give the relic to Ye Futian.
This scene caused the hearts of the surrounding cultivators to tremble. Supre Swordlord was truly incredible. He had actually handed over a relic left behind by a Great Emperor like he said he would. He had admitted defeat because of a bet.
In reality, even if he had not admitted his defeat, what could Ye Futian have done about it?
As expected, such verve was not sothing they had anything to compare to. Supre Swordlord might believe that he could find other relics elsewhere.
Ye Futian put his imperial arm away and his figure landed on the ground before the three divine swords. He looked toward Lord Chen and the others. The group walked over imdiately.
In the distance, the other cultivators who were observing also ca forward. Since Supre Swordlord had left, they naturally also wanted to co forward to comprehend and cultivate.
“Since the rest of you have already retreated, you need not co back,” Ye Futian said as he turned around to take a look. Then, his arm made an arc and drew an illusory line in space. He said, “The rest of you, if you want to continue your ditation, you can only do so outside of this region.”
He was already giving them so respect by not imdiately chasing them away and instead drawing out a region in which they could cultivate.
The various cultivators looked down and stopped in their tracks. No one dared to advance. Ye Futian was still the person who had made Supre Swordlord leave in defeat. They naturally did not dare to defy him.
“Better start cultivating,” Ye Futian told the cultivators beside him. He too looked at the three divine swords. He wanted to see whether he could comprehend anything.
“This ti, I will not participate,” said Gu Dongliu as he took the initiative and went to the side to cultivate. He had already obtained the teachings of a Great Emperor. Hence, he stepped down on his own accord and gave the opportunity to the others.
Ye Wuchen also wanted to step down. However, he heard Ye Futian say, “Wuchen, you cultivate swordsmanship. These three divine swords are sowhat unique. Why don’t you try comprehending them?”
“All right,” replied Ye Wuchen as he nodded his head and did not say anything more.
