As Ye Futian's voice fell, an even stronger pressure descended. A divine shadow appeared above his head, and a terrifying will pressed down on him. He had an illusion that he was being pressed down by the sky.
Ye Futian felt extremely uncomfortable. His entire body was soaked in sweat. His strong will resisted this oppressive force. His eyes were still fixed on the sky above. He said, "Even if the Divine Lord kills me, it will be the same. Before I came here, I did not think that the Divine Lord would do anything to me. So, I was prepared for the worst. If anything happens to me, Ziwei Imperial Palace and Yu Sheng will treat the Dark Court as their mortal enemy."
Now, the Six Realms were in a relatively balanced state. However, if Ziwei Imperial Palace and the Demon Imperial Palace attacked the Dark Court at the same time, the situation would be reversed instantly. It would be impossible for the Divine Lord to bring darkness to the world.
At that time, Ye Qingyao would also betray the Dark Court. In a sense, Ye Futian's threat was useful.
"Do you think that the Divine Prefecture will let Ziwei Imperial Palace go? Not just Donghuang Imperial Palace, but the Ancient God Clan and other forces of the Divine Prefecture will not let them live, "the Divine Lord of Darkness said coldly. Obviously, he knew these things very well.
"The grudge between the Divine Prefecture and Ziwei Imperial Palace is because of me. If something happens to me, then this grudge will cease to exist. Ziwei Imperial Palace will choose to join the Demon Imperial Palace, or even join the Donghuang Imperial Palace. They will have a common enemy," Ye Futian continued. "On the other hand, if I return safely, none of this will happen."
The Divine Lord of Darkness also understood that not only would it not happen, but his grudge with the Divine Prefecture might even be directed against the Divine Prefecture. Back then, the Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm did not touch Ye Futian. They even chose to help him because they wanted to nurture the Divine Prefecture's enemies.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
That was why they allowed Ye Futian to grow. Otherwise, the grudges back then would have been enough for them to attack Ye Futian.
"You're right. Since that's the case, I'll give you a month's time. After a month, I'll let you go. If you send someone to attack the Dark Court within this month, then … I'll kill you!"
The dark storm surged wildly. The terrifying will descended upon Ye Futian and then retreated, leaving the voice echoing between heaven and earth.
Obviously, the Divine Lord of Darkness was angered by his threat. Ye Futian dared to threaten the Lord of the Dark World.
He was the king of the Dark World. No one could threaten him.
He wanted to see if Ye Futian dared to do so.
The oppressive aura disappeared, and the dark storm dissipated as well. Ye Futian looked at all of this. The God of Darkness did not give him a chance to negotiate at all. Instead, he directly told him how to deal with the situation and let him choose.
Gambling with their lives?
Ye Futian obviously did not dare to do so. The Divine Lord of Darkness had his reservations, and he did not dare to gamble with his own life.
Now, he could only continue to wait for another month. By being able to give an exact time, the Dark God Monarch had already taken a step back. Otherwise, with his status as a Divine Monarch, if he were to be threatened, it would not be enough even if he died a hundred times.
Even though his cultivation base was very strong, he was no different from an ant in front of a Great Emperor. He could be easily crushed.
Ye Futian closed his eyes and continued to cultivate quietly. A month's time was not a long time for him. However, for the Gods' Relic Continent, which was currently in a storm, there would probably be drastic changes every day. He did not know how this storm would evolve.
He ordered the people of Ziwei Imperial Palace to hold back for the time being. They would not participate before he returned to avoid any mishaps.
…
During the days that Ye Futian was in the Dark Court, news about the war in the Gods' Relic Continent came to him every day.
The scale of the war continued to expand, and the entire continent was involved in it at an extremely terrifying speed. Forces and cultivators from various worlds had joined in the battle, carrying out frenzied killings and plundering.
Over the years, countless treasures and cultivation resources that were born in the Gods' Relic Continent had been taken and plundered. However, it was precisely because of this that the continent now had a terrifying amount of cultivation resources. This was also an important reason why the war had spread so quickly.
In fact, many cultivators from major forces hoped that the Emperor-level forces would also directly declare war on the continent. It would be best if the war could be so intense that both sides would suffer. Only then would they have a chance. Otherwise, the best cultivation resources would be monopolized by the Emperor-level forces, and the resources that they could obtain would be very few. Even if they had any, they would be leftovers. There were also some precious cultivation resources that were in the hands of the top forces below the Emperor-level forces.
Under such circumstances, they hoped that the impact of the war could be as great as possible. Heroes were born in troubled times. Only in a chaotic battlefield would they have a chance to turn the tables. Otherwise, if the peace continued as before, all the cultivation resources would be squeezed dry. Everyone would have their own masters, and they would have nothing to do with it.
Profit was often the root of the outbreak of war.
This war was not like the previous war in the Divine Prefecture. It was chaotic and disorderly. The Emperor-level forces did not rule over the various forces below them. Instead, the various forces fought from the very beginning, and then the war spread to the Emperor-level forces.
With such a large-scale war involved, many powerful cultivators fell on the Gods' Relic Continent every day.
Some people wondered if this was the curse of the gods.
In the Battle of the Heavenly Path that had once erupted, this was the main battlefield. The battle was so intense that the heavens and the earth split, and the gods fell. Today, countless years later, this ancient battlefield reappeared in the world, once again causing an unprecedentedly vast war. It was as if the events of many years ago were repeating themselves.
Seeing the continuous fall of cultivators, everyone seemed to see what kind of era it was during the Twilight of the Gods. The gods withered and fell, and the world of cultivation was cut off.
At this time, Ye Futian, who was in the World of Dark, received news from the battlefield again.
It was said that Si Jun and Ye Qingyao led the Dark Court in a head-on battle with the Donghuang Imperial Palace of the Divine Prefecture. This battle was extremely terrifying. Ye Qingyao possessed divine power that could compete with Donghuang Diyuan. The two of them fought fiercely, and Ye Qingyao wanted to kill Donghuang Diyuan.
However, this battle had no result. Both sides retreated, but the significance was extraordinary. It meant that the head-on battle between the Emperor-level forces had also begun. This time, it was not a fight for the relic like before, but a war.
Did the Dark Emperor give Qingyao the order to kill Donghuang Diyuan? Ye Futian thought to himself as he sat there. Although Donghuang Diyuan was his fated enemy, he did not seem to have a strong hatred for him.
Of course, he was still a little worried about Ye Qingyao. Whether she won or lost, it was not necessarily a good thing for her.
If she really killed Donghuang Diyuan, she probably would not be able to live.
However, both sides were Emperor-level forces with many cultivators. It should not be so easy for her to die.
Before he knew it, a month had finally passed. This was the time that the Dark Emperor promised to let him go!
