Ye Futian saw that none of the mighty ones said anything, and he knew that they might have guessed something. After all, there was indeed something fishy about his escape from the Original Realm back then. Under that kind of attack, he would have died without a doubt.
However, this was an opportunity given by Princess Donghuang. Even if they knew, they dared not say anything.
"Now that the Original Realm is in turmoil, are you all preparing for another great battle?" Ye Futian looked at the mighty ones and said, "This time, I will not seek death like I did 20 years ago."
Everyone looked grim. Back then, Ye Futian did not seek death; he simply knew that he could escape.
They also understood that today was different. If they were to kill Ye Futian again, the alliance of the Heavenly Mandate Academy might fight to the death.
Furthermore, the lineup of the other side had become stronger, with two more giant-level figures.
Of course, their powers had also changed, but if they were to fight to the death, they would still be in danger. If a battle of this level were to break out again, they might not be able to hold back.
As Ye Futian said, now that the Original Realm was in turmoil, the forces of the Dark World were eyeing them. While they wanted to destroy the alliance of the Heavenly Mandate Academy, if they were to be damaged in this battle, they might also face a catastrophe, and they would not be able to survive this turbulent era.
It was especially so for those local forces that did not have forces from the Upper Worlds. If the two sides were to fight, one side would definitely be destroyed. When the time came, there would be no threat, and their alliance would naturally fall apart. They did not think that their alliance was that strong. If anything were to happen in this battle, the forces of their clans would probably be annihilated in this turbulent era.
As such, they came with great force this time, but in reality, they all understood that the current situation was completely different from 20 years ago.
Moreover, it was said that Ye Futian had forces in the Upper Worlds as well. There seemed to be an extremely powerful and mysterious figure in the legendary Four Corner Village.
After the Hierophant of Mithraism was killed, the news spread, and the forces naturally learned about this before coming here.
The clan lord of the Shen clan took a step downward. Suddenly, a terrifying spatial storm swept out. Terrifying cracks of the Great Path appeared around the Heavenly Mandate Academy like an abyss. If he directly attacked the academy, the Heavenly Mandate Academy would be destroyed.
After Ye Futian's "death," they promised Princess Donghuang that they would no longer disturb the order of the Original Realm. Thus, they had always been relatively law-abiding.
Before Ye Futian's arrival, they had planned to slowly consume the power of the Heavenly Mandate Academy and suppress it in many ways. They wanted the Heavenly Mandate Academy to slowly wither away in the chaotic storm of the Original Realm. They wanted the Heavenly Mandate Academy to be nibbled away bit by bit, and they were about to succeed. Lord Taixuan had already been severely injured. As long as they waited for a few more years, the alliance of the Heavenly Mandate Academy would inevitably be devoured bit by bit.
But at this moment, Ye Futian returned. The people who left with Princess Donghuang also returned.
Furthermore, the first thing he did upon his return was to kill the Hierophant of Mithraism, which immediately raised the vigilance of many organizations.
Ye Futian and the others had the power to kill a Renhuang at the peak of the perfect Great Path in a short period of time. This meant that if they were to target one or two of them, it would be extremely dangerous.
Moreover, now that he came back alive, the promise he made to Princess Donghuang was no longer valid. Both sides could kill each other.
The might was still there, and there was a moment of silence. The entire Heavenly Mandate City was extremely oppressive, and countless cultivators in the city did not even dare to breathe.
"If you still want to fight, then please do so. If you don't, then what are you doing here at the Heavenly Mandate Academy?" Lord Taixuan walked out and said to the void. His voice still seemed to be a little weak, but there was a sense of determination in his tone.
After 20 years, they would not be the same as they were 20 years ago. If they were to fight, they would fight to the death, no matter the cost.
As long as the other party dared to do so, they dared to do so as well.
"This time, you are not the only ones here. Many Renhuangs from various forces are here as well. I'm guessing that you're not here to fight, are you?" Ye Futian continued to say. They came to the Heavenly Mandate Academy. If they were to fight, they should have only sent the top-notch giants. Bringing other Renhuangs would have been a burden instead, and they would have been meaningless in the war.
The outcome of the battle between the two sides would have been determined only by those top-notch figures.
The others were able to tell that those cultivators had joined forces to exert pressure, but in reality, everyone knew what the current situation was like. It was no longer the same as it was 20 years ago.
Moreover, they all felt that as they were confronting each other at this moment, there was an extremely tyrannical divine will sweeping over here from time to time. That was a peak-level figure spying on the battlefield, and they naturally knew who it was.
The Heavenly Mandate Realm had not only allied forces with the Heavenly Mandate Academy, but there were also top-notch forces from the Dark World.
Those people were also looking at him with covetous eyes.
If they could join forces, they would not have minded joining forces to destroy the Heavenly Mandate Academy. However, none of them dared to do so. Openly joining forces with the forces of the Dark World to destroy the forces of the Divine Prefecture was a huge taboo, and the Imperial Palace would probably blame them for it. They naturally knew that. Even if they wanted to do so, they would have done it in secret, just like before, using each other.
Since they were not here to fight, the other side came in such a grandiose manner, naturally to demonstrate their might. They were also worried that the Heavenly Mandate Academy would deal with them like they dealt with Mithraism. As such, they sought out the forces of their former alliance and exerted pressure.
At the very least, they wanted to tell the Heavenly Mandate Academy that if they dared to act recklessly, the army of their alliance would arrive at any time and start a war.
Now, both sides had more scruples than before.
"I heard that you are famous in the Shangqing Domain, and that you are the only one who can comprehend the corpse of Shenjia the Great Emperor?" A Renhuang asked at that moment. That person was not a giant figure, but a Renhuang cultivator from the Holy Land of Taichu. His temperament was extraordinary, and he exuded a strong sense of confidence. When he looked down at Ye Futian, his eyes were sharp, and there was a hint of fighting spirit in them.
This cultivator was said to be very famous, and he was a force to be reckoned with in the Original Realm. Many giant figures of the Original Realm gathered here because of his return, which showed how much importance they attached to Ye Futian.
Is this person really as extraordinary as the rumors say?
Just how strong is his talent?
Ye Futian looked at him from afar. He did not expect a Renhuang from the Holy Land of Taichu to suddenly come out and answer him. He naturally sensed the sharpness in the other's eyes, so he said, "Yes."
"The number one genius who shook the Original Realm. Today, I want to see just how strong you are." The Void Renhuang did not waste any time. He stepped directly into the battlefield, and a monstrous pressure swept out with astonishing power.
This person came from the Holy Land of Taichu and was a powerful Renhuang. He had been famous for many years, and now he had a perfect Great Path of the Sixth Realm. He rarely fought, and all his experience was on cultivation. He wanted to break through the shackles of the Realm and enter the Seventh Realm.
Not only him, but also a group of Renhuangs from the Holy Land of Taichu came, and there were also powerful Renhuangs from the Solar Divine Palace. All of them glanced at Ye Futian.
But now that someone had made a move, they wanted to see how confident Ye Futian was.
Boom … The powerful Renhuang from the Holy Land of Taichu stepped into the void as if to suppress the sky. Terrifying waves of the Celestial River swept down, and the monstrous power seemed to suppress all living beings.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Mandate Academy could feel the horror of that power.
However, Ye Futian glanced indifferently at the sky above. A perfect Great Path of the Sixth Realm was already very good. Even in a place like the Shangqing Domain, there were not many people at this level.
This person could naturally be regarded as an extraordinary cultivator.
But a person at this level didn't seem to make Ye Futian take a serious look. When he glanced at the other, he still stood there quietly, looked up, and said, "If you want to test my strength, then forget it. You are not qualified to do so."
That Renhuang was a proud Renhuang from the Holy Land of Taichu, and his strength was extraordinary. But Ye Futian said that if he wanted to test his strength, he was not qualified!
How arrogant was this? When had a powerful Renhuang from the Holy Land of Taichu ever been treated with such contempt?
An even more terrifying storm of the Great Path swept up, and a wind seemed to blow in the Heavenly Mandate Academy. The disciples of the academy let out muffled groans, and they seemed to be about to be crushed under the terrifying pressure of the Great Path. But this invisible pressure lifted them up and blocked the sky above.
Only Ye Futian, who stepped forward, was truly bearing the terrifying pressure of the other.
However, when he stepped forward, it was as if he were taking a leisurely stroll in the park, and he didn't care.
In an instant, the storm flooded down, and the terrifying hurricane of the Great Path tore through the space. The figure of the other party continued to descend, and every step he took became more and more terrifying.
Ye Futian didn't move and glanced at him coldly. The moment the terrifying storm of the palm print slammed down, Ye Futian's body directly rushed toward the center of the storm, ignoring the terrifying storm of the Great Path.
"Arrogant!" The other party shouted angrily, and the storm of the Great Path seemed to turn into a domain, like the end of the world. Thousands of terrifying attacks overlapped, as if the sky and the earth were about to shatter.
However, he only saw a boundlessly beautiful figure directly pass through his incomparably terrifying attack, as if directly ignoring the power, directly passing through the strongest storm and appearing in front of him.
A rumbling sound came out, and this sound seemed to burst out from within Ye Futian's body. He raised his arm and punched out. The next moment, everyone saw the body of the powerful Renhuang from the Holy Land of Taichu being directly blown away!
