Chapter 2349: The Arrival of All Parties

After Ye Futian and the others returned to the Heavenly Mandate Academy, they got busy with preparations. They sent the weaker cultivators to the Ziwei Segmentum via the teleportation grand matrix.

The Original Realm was about to face a huge change. The Heavenly Mandate Realm was in far more danger than the Ziwei Segmentum. With the will of Great Emperor Ziwei in the Ziwei Segmentum, even if Ye Futian and his group were threatened, not many forces dared to attack the segmentum outright.

In contrast, the Heavenly Mandate Realm was far more dangerous and p.r.o.ne to attacks.

Although Master had descended upon the Lower Worlds during the previous battles and served as a deterrent for all the forces, it was different this time. A storm would soon sweep over the Original Realm. The top powers of various worlds would be involved, and Great Emperor level forces would partic.i.p.ate directly in this battle. With such backgrounds, the other parties would not be concerned with Master. If Master intervened when the battle ensued, the forces of the Dark World, the Empty Divine Realm, and the Devil World all had Great Emperor level existences as well.

Hence, Ye Futian had no choice but to be cautious just in case.

While Ye Futian’s side was busy preparing, the cultivators of the various worlds were also doing the same. For a period of time, the Original Realm suddenly became exceptionally quiet. None of the forces stirred up trouble. The cultivators from some forces were still exploring the endless void of the Original Realm, but fewer conflicts broke out.

Everyone understood that this was the calm before the storm. The various forces were all waiting. The Original Realm was about to face an unprecedented event. For now, the various forces did not dare act recklessly.

As time pa.s.sed, more and more cultivators arrived in the Original Realm. The first to arrive were the various top forces from the Divine Prefecture. Although some of them had already arrived in the Original Realm prior to this, that was only a portion of their forces. However, after the battle with the Lost Clan, they had no choice but to bolster their forces.

In the Divine Prefecture, Donghuang Imperial Palace had also sent out a decree to the 18 Domain Chief’s Manors. By the will of the Great Emperor, the 18 Domain Chief’s Manors were ordered to lead the cultivator forces in each domain to the Original Realm.

After receiving this command, they informed the top forces in each domain and then sent their cultivators over to the Original Realm.

At the same time, in different locations of the Original Realm, more and more forces from the Dark World, the Empty Divine Realm, and the Human Realm arrived. Currently, in the Original Realm, there had never been such a powerful lineup of cultivators.

In a corner of the Original Realm, a towering demonic might churned and roared. It was then followed by the sky ripping apart. A terrifying demonic black hole appeared. One by one, figures emerged from it. The cultivators who arrived could no longer be called a group; they were a troop. They were a troop of armies from the Devil World.

Mei Ting was here today too. He had personally come over to welcome the members from the Devil World. When he saw the arrival of the army, his heart also trembled violently.

From the looks of it, the Devil Emperor had personally commanded the various forces in the Devil World to gather and send their cultivators over to the Original Realm.

The cultivator who led the troop from the Devil World had exceptional temperament. He wore a jet-black robe, and his long black hair danced in the wind. His facial features were chiseled, and he was very handsome. However, he seemed somewhat arrogant. His dark eyes were deep like black holes. A formidable aura permeated from his body. Standing there, he appeared like the master of the world.

Mei Ting approached the cultivator. The former actually bowed slightly as he greeted, “Demon Sage.”

Mei Ting was shocked. Demon Sage, who seldom left the Devil World, had actually arrived in the Original Realm. Only the command of the Devil Emperor could spur Demon Sage into action. Even the Devil Emperor placed great importance on the current Original Realm.

…

In the Original Realm, in the Empty Imperial Palace of the Central Emperor Realm, a brilliant divine light shone down from the sky. Then, a group of people appeared. The Palace Lord of the Empty Imperial Palace personally came out to welcome them. The Palace Lord bowed and greeted the cultivator who led the group. The incomers were the cultivators from the Donghuang Imperial Palace. They had led their armies here to the Central Emperor Realm.

Aside from them, some other forces of the Divine Prefecture and the Domain Chief’s Manors had landed in the Central Emperor Realm too. In reality, many of the top forces from the Divine Prefecture had arrived before the cultivators from the Donghuang Imperial Palace.

After the cultivators of the Donghuang Imperial Palace descended in the Central Emperor Realm, various forces of the Divine Prefecture also hastened and made their way towards the realm. A group landed in the region that was previously occupied by the Shen clan. Dazzling divine halos of the Great Path surrounded this group of cultivators. They were none other than the Shen clan from the Upper Worlds.

Back then, many members of the Shen clan from the Lower Worlds died in battle. The survivors left the place, and the clan fell apart. Right now, the top cultivators of the Shen clan from the Upper Worlds had once again arrived in their territory.

Many forces arrived and took the Central Emperor Realm by storm. Soon, Ye Futian received news of their arrival in the Heavenly Mandate Academy. He immediately issued an order, commanding his allies, such as Nantian Divine Kingdom, Yuanyang Clan, Tianshen Academy, and Xiao clan, to temporarily evacuate the Central Emperor Realm. All these forces moved towards the Heavenly Mandate Academy. They looked like they were migrating en ma.s.se.

At the same time, as the various forces of the Divine Prefecture descended upon the Central Emperor Realm, numerous cultivators from the Empty Divine Realm arrived in the Myriad Realm. The forces of the Devil World also reached the Higher Heavens Realm.

As for the forces of the Dark World, they were still in the Hidden Land Realm as they had been prior to this.

The cultivators of the Human Realm actually also chose the Central Emperor Realm and appeared in the same realm as the cultivators of the Divine Prefecture.

Although the various forces did not come in contact with each other, they seemed to have reached a tacit understanding to not disturb each other for now. However, they also similarly took over a realm each. After all, when mobilizing the army of a world, in order for large numbers of cultivators to be able to gather at a moment’s notice, they needed to choose a place to set up base. Otherwise, once the battle started, it was easy for them to be singled out and destroyed if they were dispersed.

After all, with the current situation in the Original Realm, no one knew when the battle between the various worlds would begin.

In the Heavenly Mandate Academy, news trickled in, causing the cultivators of the academy to feel unprecedented pressure. This time, they were not just facing one or two top forces.

The forces from various worlds had arrived and occupied the Nine Realms. Aside from needing a place to set up base, there was another reason for them doing so. It was to challenge the Divine Prefecture’s absolute control over the Original Realm. As for Ye Futian, the ruler of the Original Realm, he was merely seen as a member of the Divine Prefecture Imperial Palace.

Under such circ.u.mstances, the Nine Realms were beyond his control. He could only relocate all his allies to the Heavenly Mandate Realm. If they remained outside among the cultivators of the various worlds, he would feel uneasy as they would constantly be in danger.

In the Heavenly Mandate Academy, Ye Futian and the other cultivators gathered. Emperor Nan said, “The cultivators from the various worlds silently arrived and occupied different realms. They are making a statement: the Original Realm does not belong to the Divine Prefecture alone. They’re carving it up.”

Ye Futian nodded slightly. He understood the intention of the various parties for doing so. Before the chaos, the Original Realm mainly consisted of the Nine Supreme Realms. Now, the only realms that were still unblemished were the Central Emperor Realm, the Heavenly Mandate Realm, the Myriad Realm, the Higher Heavens Realm, and the Mountain Realm.

The Central Emperor Realm was controlled by the Divine Prefecture. The Heavenly Mandate Realm was under the control of the Heavenly Mandate Academy. The cultivators of the Empty Divine Realm seized control of the Myriad Realm while the cultivators of the Devil World invaded the Higher Heavens Realm. The Mountain Realm belonged to the cultivators of the World of Buddhism. The other forces did not conquer this place for reasons that were self-evident.

Buzz. Right at this moment, a cultivator descended from the sky. He was Old Ma. He seemed excited as he straightaway walked up to Ye Futian.

“What happened?” Ye Futian asked when he saw Old Ma’s expression.

“The Shenyi Continent is moving towards our Heavenly Mandate Realm,” reported Old Ma.

“The Shenyi Continent?” Ye Futian’s heart trembled violently. “The entire continent is moving?”

“Yes,” Old Ma replied while nodding. “I suspect that its movement is controlled by the cultivator of the Lost Clan.”

All the cultivators were somewhat surprised. The entire continent was moving?

Emperor Nan said, “Prior to this, the Shenyi Continent had been wandering in the endless void. Now, it has appeared in the Original Realm. The cultivators of the Lost Clan might indeed be controlling the direction of where the continent moves.”

All the cultivators revealed strange expressions. If what he said was true, then the Shenyi Continent might be purposely moving towards the Heavenly Mandate Realm?

Just as they were discussing this, a few powerful auras suddenly appeared in the sky above. Dazzling divine light s.h.i.+mmered, and a group of people appeared outside of the Heavenly Mandate Academy. One of the incomers said, “The Lost Clan is here to visit Renhuang Ye.”

Ye Futian and the rest naturally could detect the arrival of the Lost Clan. Ye Futian responded, “Seniors, please come in.”

After he said this, the cultivators of the Lost Clan entered the Heavenly Mandate Academy and came straight to where Ye Futian and the rest were.

Ye Futian rose from his seat to welcome them. He greeted, “Seniors, welcome to the Heavenly Mandate Academy.”
