The divine halos emanating from the character “xing” widened and flooded Ye
Futian. He was immersed in the space encompassed by the character and came
face-to-face with the illusory figure.
The illusory figure kept moving, anda miraculous will burst forth. Many other
illusory figures were formed in the surrounding space.
“This is..” exclaimed someone. The surrounding cultivators felt their hearts
tremble violently. All of them had their eyes fixed on the shocking scene before
them. The divine stone remained floating in the sky. After the character “xing”
had been activated, the divine stone emitted a divine light which enveloped Ye
Futian’s body. It was as though a domain was sealed in the stone, and the
character was the key to unsealing it.
This looks like a divine technique,” someone commented.
“Hmm. This might be the way the old Heaven Court recorded their divine
methods. Instead of carving them on the walls, they sealed the methods in the
divine stones. One would need to unseal the stones with their power of the
Great Path before they could comprehend the methods,” analyzed Supreme
Swordlord. “In that case, does it mean that each divine stone here represents a
unique divine technique of the Old Heaven Court?
House Deva was the head of the Eight Legions. Under the command of the
ancient Heavenly Emperor, the Old Heaven Court had countless Tianshens.
They never lacked divine techniques. Surely, they possessed many unusual
divine methods. There were innumerable divine stones in the ruins, but it was
nothing shocking considering that these were the divine treasures of the Old
Heaven Court.
“We have more than 100 divine stones here,” someone stated.
This amount might mean nothing to the members of the Old Heaven Court, but
was astounding for thoOse who were present here. If all 100 divine stones here
contained divine methods in them, it meant that Ye Futian’s group was now in
possession of more than 100 divine techniques from ancient times.
This was undoubtedly sensational news.
The divine treasures of the Old Heaven Court were hidden in some rubble. Who
would have thought of that? If the cultivators from the Heaven Realm learned
of this, they would most likely rue their loss of the golden opportunity. The
rubble was right under their noses, yet they didn’t even take a look at it.
“It’s a divine technique,” announced Ye Futian as he turned around to look at
the crowd.
His eyes gleamed with excitement as well. If 10o divine stones corresponded
with 100 divine methods, the cultivators of the Ziwei Segmentum would never
lack divine techniques from now on. Everyone would have access to top-tier
methods.
They had pills that could aid them in improving their bodies and talents. The
relics of the Great Emperors which they had seized would allow them to
continue experiencing transformation. Now, they had divine techniques which
they would cultivate. The members of the Ziwei Segmentum were indeed
blessed to have so many cultivation resources. The resources they had were on
par with that of Emperor-level forces. The Ziwei Segmentum was even better
in some aspects.
The only difference between the Ziwei Segmentum and Emperor-level forces
was that the former did not have a Great Emperor who could contend with the
six Great Emperors in the world currently.
Aside from Ziwei Imperial Palace, Ye Futian intended to slowly build up the
other forces in the Ziwei Segmentum. Over time, those forces would surely
become as powerful as the top forces in other worlds.
of course, due to the recent major changes, everything would be different in
the future. More and more extraordinary cultivators would emerge.
“This divine technique is a remarkable movement method. That’s why the
divine stone in which it is stored has the character “xing” engraved,” Ye Futian
said in a low voice. In that case, the character carved on each divine stone was
more than just the key to activate it. It was als0 a label.
The character symbolized the type of divine technique that was stored in the
stone.
“Jian!
Supreme Swordlord looked towards the divine stone with the character “Jian”
carved onto it. If Ye Futian’s explanation was valid, then the technique sealed
inside this character was the swordsmanship created by the Tianshens. A sense
of anticipation welled up inside him. Even though he had reached perfection in
his Taishang Swordsmanship, there were still other top-tier swordsmanships
in the world that were worth comprehending. Even if he chose not to cultivate
the swordsmanship hidden in the stone, he could still apply its strength in
perfecting his technique.
“Swordlord, please have a try,” Ye Futian said upon noticing the gaze of
Supreme Swordlord. The latter nodded. The next moment, the will of Taishang
Swordsmanship gushed towards the targeted divine stone. The intense might
of Taishang Swordsmanship pressed onto the divine stone, causing a faint
glow to light upon the character.
When the crowd saw this scene, they thought, Supreme Swordlord’s cultivation
is more vital than that of Palace Lord, yet he could not unravel the mystery of
the divine stone as smo0othly as the latter. This was perhaps due to the
difference in their wills of the Great Path. Ye Futian had merged the power of
the Divine Ruler in his will. Therefore, he could easily activate a divine stone.
Supreme Swordlord continued to push more of his will into the divine stone.
The character grew brighter and brighter, and gradually, an unparalleled
divine halo of swordsmanship burst forth from it. After that, a domineering
divine halo of swordsmanship poured out from the stone. The light emanated a
sharp will, causing many cultivators among the crowd to retreat
uncontrollably and disperse. Supreme Swordlord was the only one who
remained in his original spot. His gaze was fixed on the character as he
immersed himself in this extraordinary Sword Will.
“He opened it!” someone exclaimed.
It is true. Each divine stone contains a divine technique,” someone else added.
The cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace felt their hearts throbbing. Of course,
it was the same for the cultivators of the West Imperial Palace. Before this,
their speculation was enough to make them very excited. Now, the scene
before them had proven without a doubt that their guesses were correct
The divine stones contained divine techniques.
There were more than 100 divine techniques here.
Ye Futian was also somewhat excited. He said to the others, “All of you, give it a
try. See whether you can unlock the divine stones.”
The crowd nodded their heads and began to try out the divine stones. Yet, no
one managed to succeed after this.
Even ‘Two Tribulation Plane cultivators could not immediately unlock the
divine stones.
The divine stone, with the character “xing” carved on it, dimmed in Ye Futian’s
hand. It appeared that without him providing his power of the Great Path, the
stone would reseal itself. He did not pay it heed as he looked at the others.It
was not the time for him to cultivate now anyways.
When he saw that no one managed to unravel the mystery behind the divine
stones, Ye Futian frowned slightly. It seemed that these divine stones would
not be figured out so easily. It was just that his power was unique, and the
ability of Supreme Swordlord was extraordinary. Their Great Paths were also
compatible with the powers within the divine stones. Hence, they had managed
to unlock them.
Things weren’t as simple for the others.
“Goddess Chiyao,” Ye Futian called out to Xi Chiyao. Xi Chiyao shifted her gaze
towards him. Ye Futian pointed at a divine stone and said, “Try that one.”
Xi Chiyao looked at it. The character “yu” was carved on it.
“Alright!” replied Xi Chiyao as she nodded. She understood Ye Futian’s
intention. He must have guessed that to unlock the divine stones, the
characters on them needed to be compatible with one’s cultivation.
The divine power of Raindrop Divine Sword surged into her fingers as Xi
Chiyao pointed at the divine stone. Immediately, raindrops shot towards it and
traced out the character. Gradually, the character lit up with a faint glow.
“That’s it,” said Xi Chiyao as a look of excitement flashed past in her eyes. Not
long after, she unraveled the mystery of this divine stone and appeared within
its domain. The entire world became a world of rain. She saw the Rain God of
the past. She felt emotional. This power was very compatible with her
cultivation.
When Ye Futian saw this scene, he understood something. From the looks of it,
they needed to fulfill two important conditions to unlock the secrets of the
divine stones. They needed to have a powerful enough Great Path, and their
Great Path had to be compatible with the divine stones.
Only then could they unlock the divine stones and peer into the divine
techniques contained within them.
Among those present here, Ye Futian, Supreme Swordlord, and Xi Chiyao were
the only three who managed to unlock a divine stone so far.
Speaking of which, the majority of the members of the other forces, which had
seized the divine stones, would not be able to activate the stones either. Only
very few top figures could decipher the mysteries of the divine stones.
Ye Futian wondered, “Can my power unlock all the divine stones?” He looked
towards another divine stone. Emerald-green divine light shone from his body.
Divine power surged out from his Life Palace and rushed into the stone.
A moment later, changes occurred to the stone as it radiated divine halos.
“I can!” Ye Futian said to himself. Then, he attempted to open other divine
stones. As the characters on the divine stones lit up one by one, the crowd
noticed that Ye Futian could activate all of them. His power of the Great Path
seemed to be compatible with everything.
This meant that they had access to all 100 divine stones here. They could
cultivate the divine techniques sealed in every stone unhindered.
However, they would need to trouble Ye Futian in the process. They required
his help to unseal the divine stones.
Ye Futian stopped trying. He sank deep into his thoughts as he stared at the
divine stones. It would take him a long time to sort through the contents of all
the divine stones before he could match each stone with a suitable cultivator
However, this was not a sustainable solution. The others would still need to
depend on themselves to activate the divine stones in order to cultivate the
techniques anytime they wanted.
Aside from this, Ye Futian thought of another thing. These divine stones were
very valuable!
