Ye Futian looked at Hua Junlai and the other seven cultivators. He said, “My actions are indeed inappropriate. I didn’t think things through before agreeing to join the team. However, even if I go all out, I’m not confident that I’ll surely be able to shatter the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. The outcome of this battle is uncertain regardless. Even if we manage to break through, who can guarantee that we will come out unscathed?”


With a clear and sincere voice, Ye Futian continued, “The cultivators of the Lost Clan are willing to risk their lives to uphold the Battle Matrix of the Rocks. This act is admirable. I admit that I have a soft spot for them. Therefore, the Heavenly Mandate Academy and I will give up on this mission. We will not attack the Lost Clan. We will also give up on the chance of cultivating in the cave of the Lost Clan. We will not loot the treasures that belong to them.”


He agreed to join the battle, yet he couldn’t give his best while the two parties were fighting. He was naturally at fault. However, he did so because he was impressed by everything that the Lost Clan did. So, he didn’t want to go to such extremes.


“You will give up on the chance to cultivate in the cave?” reiterated a cultivator of the Ancient G.o.d Clan mockingly. “With this gesture, the Lost Clan will most likely treat you as an honorable guest. They might invite you to cultivate in their secret zone after the battle is over.”


Clearly, the Ancient G.o.d Clan cultivators thought that Ye Futian was trying to curry favor with the Lost Clan.


Ye Futian gave the speaker a disdainful sideways glance. He said indifferently, “What Plane have you reached? And what Plane have I reached?”


Frowning, the other party stared at Ye Futian. He was an eighth-tier Renhuang, while Ye Futian was a seventh-tier Renhuang.


“You can’t break through the matrix. On the other hand, I am confident to challenge this seventh-tier Battle Matrix of the Rocks. If I join forces with other people, do you think that I will fail?” Ye Futian retorted. What he meant was that if he were really interested in cultivating in the secret zone of the Lost Clan, he would have earned the right to do so fair and square by breaking through the Battle Matrix of the Rocks.


Ye Futian’s words also served to declare to the other party that just because the latter couldn’t break through the matrix, it didn’t mean that Ye Futian couldn’t too.


It wouldn’t be a surprise to anyone if Ye Futian managed to break through the matrix with his cultivation at the seventh-tier Renhuang Plane. After all, Ye Futian’s combat ability was enough for him to contend with the top monstrous figures who were at the eighth-tier.


“You can’t tell for sure…” The other eight cultivators were somewhat doubtful. Even though Ye Futian was indeed very powerful, it was still not an easy task to want to break through the Battle Matrix of the Rocks.


However, Xiao Mu from the Devil World believed in Ye Futian’s words. Since Ye Futian could defeat him, it was most likely possible for him to break through the matrix forged by the seventh-tier cultivators from the Lost Clan. After all, the difference between each tier was enormous when cultivators reached Ye Futian’s and Xiao Mu’s level.


“Renhuang Ye is full of compa.s.sion,” praised the elder of the Lost Clan. He then declared, “The Lost Clan is glad to befriend Renhuang Ye.”


“Senior, many thanks,” responded Ye Futian as he looked at the other party. “Since the Shenyi Continent has come to the region of the Original Realm, it’s now part of the Original Realm and the Divine Prefecture. The Lost Clan should be allowed to exist here as an independent clan. This continent has been through countless challenges before it finally emerged from the void. I hope that the seniors from the Divine Prefecture can take this into consideration.”


The Shenyi Continent had now drifted into the s.p.a.ce of the Original Realm. Since the Original Realm was part of the Divine Prefecture, Ye Futian recognized the Lost Clan to be under the jurisdiction of the Divine Prefecture. In that case, the Lost Clan could be considered an independent faction of the Divine Prefecture.


Unfortunately, even though Ye Futian’s friendliness towards the Lost Clan caused him to win their favor, it also caused him to offend all the cultivators from the Ancient G.o.d Clan. Ye Futian’s readiness to accept the Lost Clan formed a stark contrast with the actions of the Ancient G.o.d Clan. He made them seem despicable. Was Ye Futian using the Ancient G.o.d Clan to establish a good connection with the Lost Clan?


Hua Junlai’s gaze was fixed on Ye Futian. A majestic might of the Great Path emanated from him and pressured Ye Futian. Hua Junlai’s white robes fluttered in the wind. His aura churned and grew more frightening. He took a step forward and said, “Renhuang Ye, your words exemplify your n.o.ble character. Now you make it seem that we are the ones who are despicable. I invited you to join our party because I have heard that you have an exceptional temperament and have acquired the inheritances of a few Great Emperors. However, up until now, I have yet to see you attacking. Since that’s the case, I have no choice but to personally test out your ability.”


Hua Junlai intended to attack Ye Futian.


As soon as he said this, a menacing aura burst forth. His might descended upon Ye Futian. An illusory figure of a G.o.d appeared. It was as though Haotian the Great was reincarnated into the present. Hua Junlai stood in front of the illusory figure of the Great Emperor. He was akin to the successor of the G.o.d. His charisma was unparalleled.


“Since you want to get a taste of my power, I have no choice but to oblige your request,” responded Ye Futian. His figure shot up to the sky like a meteorite. In an instant, he appeared high above in the sky.


Hua Junlai also flew up to the sky. The two of them stared at each other from across the s.p.a.ce. Their auras of the Great Path churned and roared. Their might spanned across the entire region. They seemed to be contending to be the ruler of this part of the sky.


Hua Junlai raised his arm. Similarly, the illusory figure of the G.o.d raised his arm. Their movements were in sync. They sent out a palm strike. In an instant, the Great Path thundered, and the heavens and the earth shook. A gigantic palm directly descended upon Ye Futian.


Far in the distance, Ye Futian felt as though the sky was collapsing. The entire sky transformed into a gigantic palm that was charging towards him. He had nowhere to hide. The entire s.p.a.ce of the Great Path was within the attack range of this gigantic palm. Besides that, endless destructive divine light flowed around the palm. It was as though the will of Haotian the Great had been infused in the divine light. It would destroy everything along its path.


Buzz. The fatal gigantic palm plunged downwards, eradicating every speck of existence along its way. Rumbling sounds rang. It was the reverberation of the Great Path emanating from Ye Futian’s body. Divine light burst forth from his body. It was likewise infused with imperial glory. The will of the Great Emperor could still boost his ability now, but its effect was not as strong as it was in the past. After all, Ye Futian was already approaching the peak of the Renhuang Plane.


Ye Futian pointed a finger upward. Instantly, alarming sounds buzzed, and a myriad of starry divine swords shot upwards. They clashed with the descending gigantic palm.


Bang. Bang. Bang. Shocking collisions echoed continuously. Each and every divine sword collided forcefully with the palm. Cracks immediately appeared on the gigantic palm. Then, the palm and the starry divine swords disintegrated into pieces together. Everything turned into dust.


Far in the distance, Hua Junlai floated in the high heavens. He was at a higher position than Ye Futian. He was not as naive as to think that he could defeat Ye Futian with a single attack. After all, the other party was also a formidable existence that ruled over an entire Realm.


He looked down at the silhouette below. A vast heavenly might burst forth from his figure. The silhouette of the Great Emperor behind him made it seem as though Haotian the Great had truly descended upon the world. He himself was a descendant of Haotian the Great and had inherited the will of the Great Emperor.


Down below, where the Lost Clan was, the various cultivators looked up at the battle high in the sky. Their hearts stirred slightly. Before this, Hua Junlai was trapped within the Battle Matrix of the Rocks and could not go all out. He had been heavily restricted. He most likely felt aggravated over this.


At this moment, in his battle with Ye Futian, he could finally unleash his combat ability completely. This powerful existence of the Ancient G.o.d Clan versus the young ruler of the Original Realm. Who was stronger?
