The Legend of Futian

Chapter 2907: Descent

The people in the Heavenly Imperial City were trembling in fear because they knew war had erupted.

The Human Realm led the forces of the Empty Divine Realm and Dark World to start the war. And their armies had already arrived in Heavenly Realm.

“Quick, look at ninety-nine heavens now!” someone exclaimed. Many people noticed that the ninety-nine heavens had become more perceivable. There were no barriers surrounding it anymore. Countless magnificent temples could be seen on every layer.

At the top layer, they noticed a heavenly palace situated in the sky.

That was the Heavenly Imperial Palace.

“Ninety-nine heavens had become a small world with a Heavenly Path. What is actually going on now?” the crowds mumbled.

There were troops of cultivators at different locations in the ninety-nine heavens. They were all under the direct command of the Heavenly Emperor Palace and belonged to it. Some of them had been there for a long time, while the others had joined recently. They hovered at multiple positions of ninety-nine heavens—a genuine Tianshen Army.

At the peak of the heavenly palace, everyone caught sight of a silhouette with white hair and surrounded by Nine-Color Divine Light; it was a spectacular sight to behold. Immediately, everyone knew that it was the current Heavenly Emperor, Ye Futian.

Ye Futian had already merged with the remnants of the Heavenly Path left by his mother. So he would not leave anything behind. Turning to look at the commoners beneath him, he declared, “The Human Ancestor is leading the Human Realm, Empty Divine Realm, and Dark World to start an invasion war that will turn the Seven Realms into a battlefield. Things are different than before this time. It is a worldwide invasion. So, regardless of your cultivation level, you will be affected by the aftermath. In the worst-case scenario, you might face life and death situation. Heavenly Realm had just recovered from declination in recent years. So, our overall forces will be weaker. When the war comes, I hope everyone can protect themselves and try to avoid the war zone as much as possible. Please find a way to survive this ordeal.

“This war should never involve the cultivators of the Heavenly Realm. But the Human Ancestor had insisted on making this happen and starting the War of the Seven Realms. Even though I’ve ascended the throne and became Heavenly Emperor, I still couldn’t prevent this war from happening. I’m ashamed of myself, but I, alongside the cultivators of the Heavenly Imperial Palace, will swear to give our all to end this war. Regardless of victory or defeat, I hope your goal is to survive this tribulation and live.”

Ye Futian did not encourage anyone to join the war. Instead, he requested the people to avoid it as much as possible and protect themselves to survive this calamity.

This should have been the problem between emperor-level forces alone. Since it was only to achieve their personal goals, they should never involve the entire cultivation world. Every cultivator should not be regarded as a citizen of the realm they had chosen to stay here to work on their cultivation.

The war should be fought by the direct subordinates of the imperial palaces alone.

The outcome of the war should not be decided by the cultivators in the world but by the Great Emperors.

“Your Majesty, what if we are willing to fight for the Heavenly Realm?” someone asked.

“That’s right. We are willing to be part of the Heavenly Imperial Palace and join this war,” another person chimed in.

Ye Futian was touched upon hearing that because he had never expected the cultivators of the Heavenly Realm to have a sense of belonging.

By rights, they should be focused on protecting themselves.

“This war is unprecedented. It will affect the entire world. I hope that you will make your decision prudently because the likelihood of you dying in this war is very high,” Ye Futian reminded.

“The Heavenly Palace was once glorious.” An elderly cultivator raised their head to the sky and sighed, “Now that we’ve finally waited for the ascension of a new emperor who is compassionate toward his subjects, I am willing to pave the way of the new world alongside Your Majesty.”

“I want to enlist in the army as well.” Many people noted continuously. Although plenty of people wished to join the war, it was still relatively little compared to the total amount in the crowd.

After all, it was a battle that involved all of the realms. Plus, the enemy had a greater advantage, so they would most likely end up fighting a losing battle. Thus, to join the war would be equal to signing their own death warrant.

“Good. Those who are willing to join the war may come over now,” Ye Futian instructed. Then he looked in a lower direction and said, “Please lend me a hand, Tianyin Buddha Lord.”

“Sure.” Tianyin Buddha Lord nodded. Just then, he transmitted his voice throughout the entire Heavenly Realm and announced, “The War of the Seven Realms starts now. Those who are willing to join the war may whisper your request. I will pick up your voice from every corner of this realm. But I still wish to inform all of you that what His Majesty said was true. The mortality rate of this war will be extremely high. So, I advise you to ponder your decision carefully.”

Tianyin Buddha Lord’s cultivation was pretty rapid since the substantial change occurred in the world and had finally reached the Great Emperor Plane. He had mastered one of the Six Superpowers—Clairaudience. So he could pick up every sound within Heavenly Realm. If he were to perfect it, he could even hear everything in the Seven Realms.

Soon, Tianyin Buddha Lord heard voices of the people’s requests. Then, he glanced at Wutian Buddha Lord and said, “I will need Wutian Buddha Lord’s help in this.”

Wutian Buddha Lord had also reached the pinnacle of cultivation and mastered Celerity. So, he could traverse a great distance at the speed of thought.

“Okay.” Wutian Buddha Lord nodded.

“I’m beyond grateful to the both of you.” Ye Futian bowed to Tianyin Buddha Lord and Wutian Buddha Lord. With the help of the two Buddha Lords, he could recruit the people of Heavenly Realm who were willing to volunteer themselves in the war.

After putting their hands together, the two Buddha Lords disappeared into thin air with their thoughts.

Ye Futian was not worried about the safety of the two of them. Tianyin Buddha Lord could pick up all the sounds across vast space and had incredibly acute sensory abilities. Wutian Buddha Lord was the master of Celerity. If the two were to coordinate with one another, hardly anyone could threaten their lives.

A while later, the two Buddha Lords brought a troop of cultivators back. Even the people of Heavenly Imperial City were brought here as well.

“Fang Cun, do your thing,” Ye Futian ordered.

“Yes, Master.” Fang Cun nodded, turned around, and headed toward the army of cultivators.

In the blink of an eye, the two Buddha Lords left the scene and headed toward other locations in Heavenly Realm.

Ye Futian stood on top of the heavenly palace and waited patiently.

Finally, terrifying storms hit on multiple locations of the sky above the Heavenly Realm. Following that, numerous space passages appeared in many different locations. In a flash, the armies of the Human Realm descended from the sky. Staring downward, they played hysterical smirks on their faces.

The Human Realm would be occupying the Seven Realms, and they were the witnesses and participants of the historical moment.

The two Buddha Lords brought more people back to the Heavenly Imperial Palace with them. With a thought, Ye Futian covered all the cultivators in ninety-nine heavens with a mysterious power. Right then, their bodies immediately vanished from sight, and they were brought into his inner world created with his Micro Heavenly Path.

His troop, the Heavenly Realm Army, would cultivate inside his inner world. It was a portable army that followed him everywhere.

A suffocating God’s Might pervaded the sky above the Heavenly Imperial City. Following the color change of the firmament, a peerless and dominating Emperor’s Might pressurized every person in the Heavenly Imperial City. All of them felt like it was the end of the world while staring at the sky in terror.

Had Tianshen Army shown up already?
