Ye Futian was extremely shocked. The black lightning had given birth to the shadow storm. He did not know how terrifying the power contained within it was.
He stood in the outer region, feeling the powerful impact again and again. Even the World Tree was shaking, swaying and making rustling sounds.
The Emperor's Divine Light was no longer dazzling. It was just a speck of light in this shadow world. It seemed insignificant and exceptionally small.
But it was this speck of light that supported him. It was not extinguished in this storm.
Otherwise, even the top figures would not be able to withstand it. The Great Path would be imprisoned, their spiritual souls frozen, and their bodies destroyed.
If his guess was correct, then the Primordial Stone was most likely the source of shadow before the collapse of the Heavenly Path. After the collapse, it formed the shadow primordial stone and fell here. Over time, it nurtured the cultivation environment of the Shadow Realm.
Then the Solar Realm should be the opposite. It was extreme Yin and extreme Yang. The Solar Divine Palace was located there. The Sun God Mountain from the Divine Prefecture was worshipped as the descendant of the Sun God. Now, they occupied the Solar Realm and claimed that they only wanted the Solar Realm.
Ye Futian thought of the transformation of Di Wu of the Solar Divine Palace. His Divine Wheel had evolved and become stronger. It had happened after the cultivators from the Sun God Mountain had arrived. All of this might be related to the Solar Realm. It might have been baptized.
However, the Sun God Mountain was a force of the Divine Prefecture. They would not dare to destroy the source of the Solar Realm. Moreover, they did not have the ability to do so. Perhaps only a top force like the Dark Court would have such ambitions.
At this time, Ye Futian hesitated again. The divine item that had caused the shadow storm was right in front of him. It might be the Great Path Origin Stone forged from the source of shadow. It could be called a divine item. Should he go and take it?
The World Tree could absorb the power of shadow and merge with it. This made Ye Futian feel that perhaps the power of shadow and the power of the sun could make the World Tree more complete.
Should he take a gamble?
If he really tried, he might suffer a backlash. If he was not careful, he would be doomed. That was why Ye Futian hesitated.
The youth from before had been able to use the shadow storm to cultivate and even control the power here. But he had still been unable to take the Shadow Origin Stone.
Now, should he try?
Ye Futian's expression kept changing. He seemed to be hesitating.
Thinking of the current isolation of the Nine Realms and the changes in the Original Realm, a ruthless look flashed in his deep eyes. He had to grow quickly. This was a very good opportunity. If he missed it, he might not get another chance like this again.
He had already come this far. Could it be that he would have to try again next time?
Thinking of this, Ye Futian moved towards the terrifying storm. With a crashing sound, an incomparably sacred towering tree extended wildly. The divine tree continued to grow bigger and bigger, as if there was no end to it. It turned into an ancient world of trees that could contain everything in the world.
The aura flowing in the World Tree blended with the power of Yin in the air. Ye Futian's body seemed to be on fire. His blood surged and roared, as if it was trying to break through the corrosion of the power of Yin. The branches and leaves of the World Tree seeped into the storm.
The shadow storm swept out, blowing against the branches and leaves of the World Tree. The rustling sound continued. The branches and leaves of the World Tree kept changing. It seemed as if they were about to freeze, wither, and die. However, the life force of the World Tree was extremely tenacious. Its vigorous life force was endless. Every time it was in a desperate situation, it would come back to life again. It even infused the power of shadow into the World Tree.
Ye Futian's body instantly turned white. The power of shadow invaded through the World Tree and flowed into his body. It flowed through his blood, meridians, organs, and even his spiritual soul.
Although he did not directly withstand the storm, the power of shadow still flowed into his body.
Everything seemed to stop flowing. His meridians were frozen and solidified. His blood stopped flowing. His organs all stopped functioning. His breathing also stopped. His spiritual soul trembled as if it was about to stop thinking.
His body seemed to be completely frozen. He became a lifeless thing.
However, he was connected to the World Tree. A faint light flowed through his body. It stubbornly supported his life, so Ye Futian did not completely lose his ability to think.
He felt that he had fallen into absolute silence. Even time and space had stopped. He could sense everything about himself and everything in the outside world.
This feeling was very strange. Everything had to stop.
This was the power of the source of shadow. If it were not for the protection of the World Tree, he would probably dissipate with a gust of wind at this moment.
Ye Futian seemed to have turned into a frozen cocoon. He stood there motionlessly. However, the World Tree enveloped the shadow storm bit by bit. It seeped in and ate away at it, merging with the shadow storm.
Time and space seemed to have stopped here. Ye Futian's life was the same. It was almost in a state of stillness. He seemed to have fallen into an eternal sleep. All signs of life gradually disappeared. If anyone was here, they would think that he had really died.
Only the flowing divine light of the ancient tree seemed to prove that Ye Futian was still alive.
In the outside world, many people wanted to take another step forward. They also wanted to enter this storm. However, with the terrifying Shadow Storm surrounding them, no one could enter, nor did they dare to. Some of the top figures of the Heavenly Mandate Academy continued to search for traces of Ye Futian underground, but they still could not find him.
It was not just Ye Futian. Other than the people who had come down later, none of the cultivators who had come before could be found. It was as if they had been wiped out by the power of Yin.
Even Lord Taixuan was gradually accepting the fact that Ye Futian had fallen.
Although it is very difficult.
But Ye Futian was really gone. He had disappeared in the shadow storm. No one could withstand the shadow storm, not even Ye Futian. Even though he was a genius, he was still just a lower-level Renhuang with a second-tier Divine Wheel.
Perhaps it was because he had created so many miracles that many people believed that he could turn the impossible into the possible again and again.
"The underground world is too big. Let's search somewhere else." At this time, Emperor Nan said to Lord Taixuan and the others. His voice still remained calm, but in reality, even he was gradually losing hope.
In reality, he was very optimistic about Ye Futian. He believed that he was a figure who could create a new era. Now that the world was in chaos, and the forces of the Divine Prefecture and the foreign worlds had descended into the Nine Realms, in his view, the land of the Original Realm needed a figure of Xinyang to become the symbol of the Original Realm.
He believed that Ye Futian could do it.
However, unfortunately, in this storm of the Shadow Realm, Ye Futian had disappeared just like that.
"Even Emperor Nan can't accept reality?" At this time, the clan leader of the Shen clan said, "If he is dead, then he is dead. Why bother looking for him? Emperor Nan is in charge of the Nantian Divine Kingdom. He is one of the strongest figures in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path. Why do you have to do this?"
He did not understand why Emperor Nan wanted to get involved and help Ye Futian. With his status and strength, there was no need for him to do so. Even if the world was in chaos, if Emperor Nan wanted to seek peace, he could still leave this place unscathed.
Unless, Emperor Nan had taken a fancy to Ye Futian and wanted to find a son-in-law.
After all, everyone knew that Emperor Nan doted on Nan Luoshen. But in the 3,000 Realms of the Great Path, there were not many people who were worthy of Nan Luoshen.
"You don't understand."
Emperor Nan responded and did not explain anything.
"If you don't understand, then you don't understand. But no matter what, he has died here. In the future, Emperor Nan will no longer interfere with the affairs of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, right?" Continued the clan leader of the Shen clan. He still hoped that Emperor Nan would not interfere with the affairs of the Heavenly Mandate Academy. After all, his existence was a great threat.
With Emperor Nan's strength, if he did not interfere, no one would touch him at present.
Emperor Nan did not answer this time. He looked ahead silently. Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something and said in a low voice, "The power of Yin is weakening."
"Huh?"
Hearing his words, all the cultivators were stunned. They all sensed it quietly. Soon, their expressions changed slightly.
Indeed, the power of Yin was weakening. They could also feel it.
In front of them, the whirlpool-like shadow storm was also gradually weakening. The storm seemed to be slowly returning to calm. The power of Yin dissipated without any pattern. It was as if it was no longer violent.
"What happened?"
Many people were a little shocked. They stared ahead. As time passed, they found that the power of Yin was constantly weakening. The shadow currents were dissipating and thinning. It was as if no new shadow currents were being produced.
As the shadow storm ahead weakened, someone stepped forward and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
One by one, the top figures walked forward and entered the shadow storm that surrounded them. As expected, they were no longer eroded. It was no longer able to affect these top figures.
The people behind them saw this and followed them one after another. They all walked in the same direction.
There seemed to be some changes in the core of the earth.
Princess Donghuang also stepped forward. A strange look flashed in her beautiful eyes.
Buzz, buzz …
The silhouettes were all extremely fast. Not long after, they arrived at the core region of the underground. The storm here had also calmed down. Although there was still a strong flow of Yin energy, it had already dispersed in all directions. It was no longer as destructive as it was before.
Everyone stared inside. They all thought that there must be a divine item in the Shadow Realm. It might be a divine item formed from the source power of Yin when the Heavenly Path collapsed. Now that the power of Yin had dissipated, it seemed that there were no divine items.
"That is …" Someone looked ahead. His heart trembled slightly.
"Buzz!" The figures were extremely fast. In an instant, they came to the front. There, a white-robed figure lay there quietly, floating in the core of the earth. It was as if there was no longer any breath of life. He had fallen into an absolute sleep.
This person was Ye Futian, who had disappeared.
"Futian." Lord Taixuan, Emperor Nan, and the others came forward. Their expressions changed. Although they had found him, they could not sense his breathing. They could not even sense the existence of any breath of life.
Could it be that he had fallen in the end?
"Why is he the only one here?" The other cultivators revealed a strange look. There were no divine items, and the storm had disappeared.
What had happened here?
