Everyone had a strange look on their faces when they saw Mo Ke's actions. He walked forward and looked at the sacred remains in the divine casket again.
With just one look, Mo Ke let out a low growl and retreated. His eyes were bleeding again. It was a shocking sight.
"What?!"
Everyone looked at Ye Futian in front of them.
He would get used to it after looking at it a few more times?
How were they supposed to look at it?
Mo Ke tried a second time. His eyes were bleeding again. How could he look at it a few more times?
If he looked at it a few more times, his eyes would probably go blind.
It was terrible.
Everyone realized that Mo Ke had been tricked by Ye Futian.
It was impossible to get used to the divine casket after looking at it a few more times, but Mo Ke actually believed him. Who asked this guy to test the waters? Mo Ke had looked at the sacred remains many times and had indeed done what he said. He had gotten used to it after looking at it. Time went by.
Otherwise, Mo Ke wouldn't have fallen for it.
After a while, Mo Ke opened his eyes and looked at Ye Futian with cold murderous intent. He had been calm when he saw Blind Tie and Ye Futian before, but he had been tricked by Ye Futian again and again. With his status, he had been tricked in front of everyone. One could imagine how he felt.
A formless power was released from Mo Ke's body. A figure rose into the air. It was Blind Tie. He also released a powerful aura that enveloped Mo Ke as if to remind him.
Mo Ke felt this aura and glanced at Blind Tie. But when he opened his eyes, they were still filled with murderous intent. There were still traces of blood under his eyes. It was a shocking sight.
"Some things are not worthy of looking at. It's not like back then, where you can just take it," Blind Tie said. His words implied that Mo Ke was not worthy of looking at the sacred remains.
"You haven't changed. You're so blunt," Mo Ke said indifferently. "If you say that I'm not worthy of looking at the divine casket, then doesn't that mean that all the cultivators in the Shangqing Domain are not worthy?"
"It doesn't sound good, but isn't it the truth? Yes is yes, no is no. I'm not worthy, so why can't I say it?" Blind Tie replied. After experiencing what had happened in the past, he naturally understood Mo Ke better. This former "brother" of his would do anything to achieve his goals.
His words were meant to sow discord, but he had a clear conscience, so why would he care?
Even though Blind Tie's words were not pleasant to hear, many of the people present were Renhuangs, and some were even powerful existences. They understood that what Blind Tie said was the truth.
That was not an ordinary corpse of a god, but the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor, an ancient Great Emperor. Since they were not allowed to view the corpse of an ancient god, it could be said that they were not worthy, and there was nothing to be ashamed of.
Mo Ke's gaze shifted from Blind Tie to Ye Futian. Seeing that Ye Futian wanted to retreat, he took a few steps forward. Suddenly, a towering pressure enveloped Ye Futian's body. It was as if the space around Ye Futian had been locked down. A cold voice came from his mouth. "Since you've gotten used to it, then take a few more glances. There's no need to retreat."
The divine light on Ye Futian's body was frightening. He suddenly closed his eyes and wanted to retreat, but he was blocked by a frightening power of the Great Path. Boom … A terrible might of the Great Path was released from his body, and he forced himself to retreat. Blind Tie sensed this and raised his arm to smash into the void. A divine hammer descended from the sky and slammed into Mo Ke's body.
Mo Ke raised his hand and made a grabbing motion. A huge palm print directly grabbed the illusion of the divine hammer. A towering might of the Great Path swept out towards the sky below, setting off a frightening storm. Many people were sent flying.
"What are the two of you doing outside the Domain Chief's Manor?" At this moment, a voice came from the Domain Chief's Manor. Before the person arrived, the voice arrived first. As the voice faded, a group of people walked out of the Domain Chief's Manor and appeared in the sky above, looking at Mo Ke and Blind Tie who were fighting.
Suddenly, Mo Ke withdrew his palm, and Blind Tie also stopped his attack. Ye Futian retreated and glanced at Mo Ke.
This group of people who walked out had extraordinary temperaments. There were young men and women, as well as elders who had cultivated to the Transformative Plane. Their divine light was restrained, and they exuded a faint pressure as they stood in the void.
The leader was a middle-aged man. He was the son of the chief of the Shangqing Domain Chief's Manor, Zhou Muhuang.
He could also be called the young chief of the Domain Chief's Manor. His cultivation was monstrous, and he was already one of the top giants in the Shangqing Domain. He was a ninth-tier being with a perfect Great Path. Even among the giants of the top forces, there were not many who dared to say that they could defeat Zhou Muhuang.
The father and son of the Shangqing Domain were both existences who stood at the peak.
Of course, Zhou Muhuang himself had cultivated for more than a hundred years, and the chief was even younger. He was an extremely powerful existence of the older generation. However, because of Zhou Muhuang's extraordinary cultivation, he looked rather young. He looked middle-aged, only about 40 years old.
But in the Shangqing Domain, there were not many who dared to disrespect the young chief. It was not only because of his identity, but also because of his own strength, which was enough to intimidate the cultivators of the Shangqing Domain.
"Greetings, young chief." Many people greeted him. Those with weaker cultivation bowed slightly to Zhou Muhuang. Zhou Muhuang stood there and looked at the crowd, saying, "There's no need to be so polite, everyone."
"This divine casket was brought here from the Cangyuan Continent. It is mysterious and dangerous, which is why my father forbade anyone from looking at it. But if you really want to look at it, the Domain Chief's Manor will not stop you. You will have to bear the consequences yourself. You are all top-notch figures in the Shangqing Domain. If you want to look at it, feel free to do so. There is no need to fight," Zhou Muhuang said.
While Mo Ke and Blind Tie were very powerful, and they were not young either, they were probably even Zhou Muhuang's juniors. That was especially true for Blind Tie, who was probably the youngest of them all. He was probably much younger than Zhou Muhuang.
Zhou Muhuang's words carried a lot of weight.
"I was impulsive. Please forgive me, Muhuang." Mo Ke cupped his hands and said. Despite his status, he had no right to be arrogant when facing Zhou Muhuang.
"Yes." Zhou Muhuang nodded. "My father invited cultivators from all over this time because he doesn't want any conflict to break out. If you have any grudges, please try to restrain yourselves."
"Since Muhuang has asked, I will remember it," Mo Ke said. Blind Tie nodded as well.
Zhou Muhuang nodded and turned his eyes to Ye Futian. He said, "I have long heard of your name, Renhuang Ye. Now that I have met you today, you are indeed a peerless hero."
Many were dumbfounded. Zhou Muhuang's status was such that he was able to look down on people like Mo Ke and Blind Tie. There was no need for him to be courteous even to the giants of many top-notch forces.
However, he seemed to be very fond of Ye Futian when he walked out of the Domain Chief's Manor, praising him so highly.
"Zhou Muhuang, the vice chief of the Shangqing Domain Chief's Manor. He is of the ninth plane and has a perfect Great Path." Ye Futian looked at the middle-aged man and recalled Duan Qiong's introduction of him. According to Duan Qiong, even his father, Duan Tianxiong, might not be able to beat Zhou Muhuang.
Furthermore, the man's name was a testament to his overbearing ambition.
Muhuang!
Just how much did he expect of him?
Becoming the Great Emperor?
Ye Futian had been to two domains, the Donghua Domain and the Shangqing Domain. The Domain Chief's Manors were very powerful. The Donghua Domain had Ning Yuan and Ning Hua, who were both influential figures.
Now, Ye Futian saw that the Domain Chief's Manors that ruled the 18 domains on behalf of Donghuang the Great were all powerful lords and giants themselves. The powers of those people were no weaker than those under the direct command of the Great Emperor's imperial palace. They might even be more powerful.
It seemed that the establishment of the 18 Domain Chief's Manors was not that simple.
Donghuang the Great did not rule the Divine Prefecture for a long time. Before that, the Divine Prefecture was divided among the feudal vassals. Mighty ones were as common as clouds, and there were many extraordinary figures. The Great Emperor wanted to rule the Divine Prefecture, so he had to rely on those powerful figures from the Divine Prefecture. It was very likely that the 18 Domain Chief's Manors were born in such a way, and they might not have been Donghuang the Great's trusted aides.
"You flatter me, senior," Ye Futian said with a slight bow. Ye Futian bowed slightly. Although Zhou Muhuang was the vice chief, he was indeed a senior. As such, it was not a problem for Ye Futian to address him as senior.
"I know a little about you. From the Donghua Domain to Four Corner Village, then to the ancient royal family of Duan, and now here, you can definitely be considered a peerless talent. It is a pity that the Donghua Domain Chief, Ning Yuan, did not know how to judge people. He wanted to kill such a distinguished figure. I wonder what he was thinking." Zhou Muhuang said to Ye Futian, "Ye Futian, if you want to cultivate in the Shangqing Domain Chief's Manor, my father and I will welcome you."
Everyone was shocked when they heard Zhou Muhuang's words. The first thing the vice chief did after coming out of the Domain Chief's Manor was to rope Ye Futian in and invite him to cultivate in the Domain Chief's Manor. It was obvious that he thought very highly of Ye Futian.
Moreover, he did not care about the Donghua Domain at all and bluntly said that it was Ning Yuan's fault. From this, it could be seen that the Domain Chief's Manors did not have much contact with each other and did not care about each other.
As long as Ye Futian nodded and joined the Domain Chief's Manor, coupled with his own talent, his status would be raised to a higher level. By then, the Donghua Domain would not be able to easily touch him.
Ye Futian was a little surprised. It was really a case of the planted heart, but the flowers did not bloom. Back then, he wanted to cultivate in the Domain Chief's Manor of the Donghua Domain, but he was plotted against and hunted.
But now, he no longer had such thoughts. The Domain Chief's Manor of the Shangqing Domain invited him.
But now, it was no longer appropriate.
He had already joined Four Corner Village and become a member of the village. What would it mean if he joined the Domain Chief's Manor now? Wouldn't he be abandoning the village?
"Senior, I have already joined Four Corner Village and become a villager. It is not appropriate for me to cultivate in the Domain Chief's Manor. I have to miss this opportunity. Please forgive me, senior," Ye Futian said. Blind Tie, Fang Huan, and the others nodded secretly. Four Corner Village had not misjudged Ye Futian. If he had joined the Domain Chief's Manor, he would have been better off than in Four Corner Village.
But now, he regarded himself as a cultivator of Four Corner Village. Four Corner Village had decided to enter the world to cultivate, and it was also a major force in the Shangqing Domain. As such, he naturally could not have a foot in two boats, and the same went for the Domain Chief's Manor. If Four Corner Village had been sealed off in the past, it would not have been a problem!
