At this moment, the endless void suddenly quietened down. It did not seem like a terrifying battle had just broken out.
The terrifying power of rules still pervaded the air, and the corpses on the ground seemed to bear witness to this great battle.
Although Douzhan was still standing proudly in the sky at this moment, and his stalwart body seemed to never fall, but in reality, only he knew his own condition. He had unleashed all his physical strength to fight the Great Zhou Sacred King, and at this moment, his body was already unable to bear the burden. If it were not for the Holy Light still flowing on his body, one would have found that at this moment, his physical body was now riddled with holes.
While the time it took for Ye Futian to attack Zhou Huang was very short, even in that short moment, the Great Zhou Sacred King had unleashed countless violent attacks.
When he saw Ye Futian capture Zhou Huang, Douzhan also understood what his disciple had been planning all these days for.
The Village Chief, Qin Zhuang, and the others were ordered to head to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's side to restrain the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. At the same time, they were to monitor the movements of the Sacred Dynasty's palace and calculate the time for the Village Chief to come back and wait for the Great Zhou Sacred King to finish his Heavenly Tribulation. But before that, no one had the confidence to stop the Great Zhou Sacred King. In reality, it was indeed impossible to stop the Great Zhou Sacred King. The Village Chief could use his own powerful Way of Space to retreat, but he could not take the Great Zhou Sacred King with him.
As such, Ye Futian had also ordered the army of the Holy Zhi Palace to intercept the army of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. You Chi and the others had given it their all and won an extremely glorious victory. As such, they had laid the foundation for today's battle. For Ye Futian, they would be able to take down Zhou Huang and the others and deter the Great Zhou Sacred King.
From begging Saint Jiang in the Nine State City until now, it had always been for his teacher.
Last time outside the Holy Zhi Palace, Ye Futian had used this ability. After that battle, he was exhausted and had to lie in bed for a long time before waking up. Today, he had once again used a power that was beyond what he could bear. The backlash would probably still be terrifying. He had no idea how his disciple had survived.
According to the common sense of cultivation, if he forcefully mobilized spiritual power that far exceeded his own, even if he could explode with super strength for a short period of time, it was very likely that his spiritual will would collapse, and he would die or become a cripple.
Douzhan didn't want to see any of these costs.
The Great Zhou Sacred King had the same thought as Douzhan, wondering why Ye Futian was able to activate such power twice.
But now was clearly not the time to pursue this issue. His eyes were extremely cold as he stared at Ye Futian.
The Great Zhou Sacred King did not say anything. Under such circumstances, whatever he said would seem to carry little weight.
Threats?
Order?
It was meaningless. He was waiting for Ye Futian to speak.
"Return to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, and I will let them go back alive." The Divine Ape spat coldly. He could have killed Zhou Huang and the others right there and then. With the rules of Emperor Xia, the Great Zhou Sacred King would not have been able to do anything to him.
However, to Ye Futian, the lives of Zhou Huang and the others were more important than the lives of his master.
He would have destroyed the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty sooner or later. But now, he wanted his teacher alive. Not only alive, but a complete saint.
The Great Zhou Sacred King's expression was extremely cold. Hearing Ye Futian's words, he knew what Douzhan's position was in Ye Futian's heart.
"Are you afraid of death?" The Great Zhou Sacred King looked at Zhou Huang, Zhou Ya, and the others.
The Great Zhou Sacred King's words sent a chill down the spines of many. He actually asked his children if they were afraid of death.
Of course he was afraid.
In this world, no one was completely unafraid of death.
The so-called fearlessness was because there was something more important than death in their hearts, something that surpassed the fear of death.
However, it was clear that this was not the case for Zhou Huang and the others. Therefore, they were very afraid.
However, seeing the Great Zhou Sacred King's sharp golden eyes, they dared not say the word 'afraid'.
Their father had many children, and he was overbearing and cold. No one dared to go against his will. He would have truly abandoned his children who were weak and incompetent.
"If we have the companions of saints, it will not be a loss," Zhou Ya said coldly. Although he said so, his heart trembled slightly.
While the Great Zhou Sacred King did not say it explicitly, he was known as the one most likely to inherit the position of Sacred King in the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, and he was still very sensitive to his father's intentions.
If his father was to agree to Ye Futian's threat, then he would have already lost.
"If anything happens to you, Douzhan and the people of the Barren State will be buried with you." The Great Zhou Sacred King's cold eyes swept where Ye Futian was. The rules of the great path flowed in their surroundings, and a terrifying aura burst from his body. He pressed his palm down at Douzhan below without hesitation. The dazzling golden light of the phoenix penetrated the void.
Douzhan roared and stepped into the void, launching a counterattack. However, boundless dazzling light penetrated his body. His towering body trembled violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His aura fluctuated even more violently.
The pressure from the Great Zhou Sacred King became even more terrifying, shrouding their surroundings and binding Douzhan within it.
Ye Futian saw all of this and his heart was extremely cold. The imperial family was the most ruthless. Would the Great Zhou Sacred King really not care about the lives of his children?
Furthermore, there was more than just one child.
Zhou Huang was a mighty one ranked on the Sage and Saint Ranking, and Zhou Ya was known as the Great Zhou Sacred King's heir and was highly valued. These two children should have been of some importance to him.
Furthermore, the Great Zhou Sacred King had said that if even a hair of his was missing, he would make his teacher suffer.
This meant that it was not that the Great Zhou Sacred King truly did not care, but that he did not want to be forced into a passive position.
The Divine Ape's huge palm suddenly clenched, and a crisp cracking sound was heard. The expression shown on the demonic beast's face was Ye Futian's expression, cold and full of murderous intent.
A few miserable cries were heard. Zhou Ya and the others wanted to hold it in, but there was a force seeping into their bodies, crushing their meridians and bones bit by bit. It was like the cruelest form of torture.
"Whatever attack my teacher endured, they will suffer double," the Divine Ape said coldly again. Ye Futian did not back down either. The two of them were in a game of wits.
The Great Zhou Sacred King stared coldly at the demon ape. Ye Futian was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined, and he was more ruthless.
"You come back to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty with me, and I will let him go." The terrifying light from the Great Zhou Sacred King shrouded Douzhan's body, and he also stated his conditions. If he had agreed to Ye Futian right away and retreated back to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, he would have been in a completely passive position. Who could guarantee that Zhou Huang and the others would still be alive, and even if they were alive, would they be crippled?
There was no way he would be threatened by Ye Futian.
"No way." Ye Futian had not yet responded when he heard Douzhan's resolute reply. His eyes also looked in Ye Futian's direction and said, "This matter is not up for discussion."
The Great Zhou Sacred King had initiated this Sacred War because he wanted Ye Futian, and now he wanted to trade Ye Futian for him?
He would rather die fighting here.
The Great Zhou Sacred King glanced at Douzhan coldly. He did not think that Ye Futian would really go back with him, and he was just testing him.
"Then, I want the girl and the Sword Matrix of the Void," the Great Zhou Sacred King said coldly.
The girl he was referring to was naturally Yaya.
The conditions were also very harsh, and Ye Futian would most likely not agree to his request. However, the girl's position in Tombkeeper Village seemed to be somewhat unusual, and there was also the Sword Matrix of the Void that Tombkeeper Village had been guarding. If Ye Futian wavered, then there would undoubtedly be a rift between Tombkeeper Village and Ye Futian.
Now, the Village Chief of Tombkeeper Village was the most powerful combat force in the Barren State.
Letting Douzhan go would also be more worthwhile if he could split the other party.
"I can't do what you want," the Divine Ape spat out coldly. Ye Futian did not hesitate. He really could not do it, and there was no need to think about it at all.
The Great Zhou Sacred King's conditions were the reason why the Village Chief followed him into the Holy Zhi Palace. If he agreed to the Great Zhou Sacred King, would the Village Chief still be the Sacred Elder? He would probably be standing directly against him. How could he hand her over?
Moreover, even without these conditions, it would still be difficult for him to exchange Yaya for his Master.
"So, you want him dead?" The Great Zhou Sacred King's expression suddenly turned cold, and his might pressed down on the world.
"Master, I have been unfilial. If anything happens to you today, I can only kill everyone here and mobilize all the forces of the Barren State to go to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's capital to avenge you." Ye Futian's voice was heard, and there was a hint of solemnity and solemnity in it.
Everything he had done these days was to help his Master reach the Divine Path and escape unscathed. However, in the current situation, he could not allow himself to be manipulated by the Great Zhou Sacred King just because of his Master. He knew that the Great Zhou Sacred King was constantly testing his limits and playing games with him.
"Very well." Douzhan nodded and responded. His aura shot up into the sky, and his back was still straight. He said, "Futian, you have done everything you can. As for me, it was by chance that I could achieve what I have today. I was lucky outside the Holy Zhi Palace, and now I have seen the scenery of the Divine Path, so it was not a loss. When you destroy the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty in the future, remember to pay tribute to me."
"Definitely," Ye Futian said coldly. The conversation between the two of them was far more tragic than the one between the Great Zhou Sacred King and Zhou Ya. Douzhan was different from Zhou Ya. In this Sacred War, Douzhan was the one who had weathered the most storms. He had indeed disregarded life and death. In his heart, the beliefs that he held fast to were more important than his life.
The void was silent again. The vast and endless world was oppressed to the extreme. Countless people in the Nine State City were watching all of this, the game between the two holy lands.
The game between the Great Zhou Sacred King of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, Ye Futian.
The wind blew, giving people a sense of desolation, with a hint of coldness.
At this moment, a figure stepped out, and in an instant, many people in the Nine State City looked at the figure who had walked out. It was a cultivator of the Xia clan.
He looked at the people in the void and said, "The Sacred War is already so tragic, and now the situation is like this. Why don't we sit down and talk?"
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was a stalemate at this moment, and everyone was holding their own bottom line, not daring to break it.
None of them wanted to pay that price.
The price for the Holy Zhi Palace was Douzhan's life, and for the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, it was the lives of the Great Zhou Sacred King's children and many others.
Both the Great Zhou Sacred King and Ye Futian said nothing, and the atmosphere was still oppressive.
"The holy lands of the Nine States are all of Emperor Xia's orthodoxy. If we continue to fight to the death, who knows how many people will die. The Xia clan is willing to mediate for this Sacred War, and we invite the Nine States Supervising Inspector to be our witness. What do the two of you think?" the elder of the Xia clan continued.
But in reality, everyone understood that the Sacred War had already come to this point, and mediation would probably be useless.
The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the Holy Zhi Palace were already in a situation where only one side could rest.
With the Great Zhou Sacred King's personality, there was no way he would let Ye Futian and the Holy Zhi Palace go. And Ye Futian's style of doing things was also extremely ruthless, and he showed off his abilities. If there was a day when he entered the Saint Plane, it was not hard to imagine what would happen!
