Chapter 2534: Successive Breakthroughs

After Ye Futian distributed the elixirs to everyone, all cultivators in the Ziwei Imperial Palace began a period of retreat and cultivation without any distractions, focusing solely on improving their strength.

The elixirs that Ye Futian produced were exceptional, far better than the elixirs made by ordinary alchemy grandmasters. This was because of his enlightened path. His Great Path was flawless, and the elixirs produced by such Great Path would naturally be extraordinary as well.

After that, a group of alchemists led by Daoist Monk Mu, who served as the pavilion master, began to a.s.semble in the alchemy pavilion, which was established by Ye Futian, in the Ziwei Imperial Palace. The Alchemy Emperor and G.o.ddess Donglai both a.s.sisted the monk as deputy pavilion masters of the alchemy pavilion. The two of them worked together to a.s.sist Daoist Monk Mu. The Alchemy Emperor was responsible for matters relating to alchemy, while G.o.ddess Donglai handled issues outside of alchemy.

The two had known Ye Futian for a very long time and from very early on. One of them was half a disciple of Supreme Deity Donglai, and the other was the daughter of Supreme Deity Donglai. Both of them had quarrels with Donghua Domain Chief’s Manor. Ye Futian had inherited Supreme Deity Donglai’s inheritance and held a grudge against Donghua Domain Chief’s Mansor, so it was natural that they would a.s.sist him with all they had.

Furthermore, this place held great attraction to them, as it was the best place for them to cultivate.

Ye Futian trusted G.o.ddess Donglai implicitly and made her responsible for some of the most precious medicinal materials to be distributed. At the same time, he taught many alchemical methods, as well as divine flame cultivation methods, to the Alchemy Emperor, which were all from the Elixir Emperor, so that he could pa.s.s them on to the alchemists in the alchemy pavilion.

After finis.h.i.+ng all this, Ye Futian left the alchemy pavilion and was ready to be a hands-off boss. In the future, except for matters relating to special elixirs, all other alchemical matters were now handed over to Daoist Monk Mu and the others.

Nowadays, in the alchemy pavilion, besides Daoist Monk Mu and the Alchemy Emperor, Daoist Monk Mu had also summoned a number of very powerful alchemy grandmasters. Still, they had not made any contributions just yet. Ye Futian was generous to them by teaching them cultivation methods and the art of alchemy. The position of deputy palace lord had to be held by someone he trusted.

Afterward, Ye Futian gave more thought to the proposal of Renhuang Chen. The Ziwei Segmentum was still sealed, but sooner or later, they had to open up to go to the outside world. Now that his own strength was enough to deter princ.i.p.alities from all sides, at least no one dared to touch anyone from Ziwei Imperial Palace. Once Renhuang Chen made a breakthrough, Ziwei Imperial Palace would be regarded as a top princ.i.p.ality.

With the expansion and strengthening of Ziwei Imperial Palace, the cultivators of the Imperial Palace needed clearly defined roles, which he must consider in advance.

About a month after Ye Futian distributed the elixirs, a horrible tribulation might appeared above the firmament in the starry cultivation court. It woke up all the cultivators with its shocking force. They looked up at the sky, their hearts palpitating.

Who was about to experience the tribulation?

This was on the verge of a breakthrough.

Ye Futian was also there. He looked up to the sky like everyone else, with a slight disturbance in his heart. Then he saw an old man in a starry robe, sitting cross-legged, with a terrifying aura all around him. The divine light of the Great Path flowed, and the vast heaven and earth were shrouded by a might of the Way.

“Murong Elder.” Ye Futian smiled. He didn’t expect that the first person to make a breakthrough would be Murong Elder.

Murong Elder was known as Murong Yu. In the Ziwei Imperial Palace, apart from Renhuang Chen, his cultivation was the deepest. He had stayed at the peak of Renhuang for many years, so it was not surprising for him to make a breakthrough now.

“Master, it seems that the elixir is working,” Fang Cun said.

“Not necessarily. The elixir is only used to a.s.sist in cultivation, so there is no direct causal effect. Any elixir that can directly help break through the realm has its disadvantages. Therefore, the elixir that I produced does not directly help break through the realm. In the inheritance of the ancient emperor, the same is true. Top-notch elixirs work to improve the foundation,” Ye Futian explained.

“Renhuang Chen had said before that Murong Elder is a cultivator, same as him from the older generation. His realm was already elevated with great depth, and he might have made a breakthrough based on his own cultivation. The fact that this happened right after him taking the elixir is just icing on the cake.”

Fang Cun shrugged and said, “Master denied the effectiveness of the elixir, and all this was to prevent me from being too superst.i.tious and relying on the elixir or other external forces to improve myself. Cultivation is still dependent on me.”

Ye Futian glanced at the guy next to him, then smiled, and said, “As long as you know.”

Since he was a child, Fang Cun had been very spiritual, and this spirituality had been there all along. He cultivated very fast, and his ability to comprehend was excellent. He understood his intention right away with just a little push.

“Watch it carefully. One day, you will also come to this point,” Ye Futian said to Fang Cun as he looked up at the sky.

“Me?” Fang Cun had an odd look on his face. He didn’t think that the master had even broken the shackles of Renhuang and experienced tribulation.

However, he dared not say this out loud. Although Ye Futian had not broken the shackles of Renhuang, he knew that his master was fully capable of slaying cultivators in the Tribulation Plane, as he had already done exactly that.

“I know, in the future, when Master becomes the emperor, us disciples will be your four guardians,” Fang Cun said with a smile.

“I can’t wait to see it.” Ye Futian glanced at him.

Murong Yu survived the tribulation, and all the cultivators in the starry cultivation court were watching. The Divine Tribulation of the Great Path was terrifying, and the power of the divine tribulation amazed everyone. The starry sky was vast and endless, but every cultivator at every location could feel that power of heaven.

Murong Yu successfully survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. Although he suffered a slight injury while undergoing the divine tribulation, it didn’t bother him much.

There is another cultivator who survived the divine tribulation, many people thought. The strength of Ziwei Imperial Palace was only growing.

“Congratulations to Murong Elder.”

“Murong Elder has survived the Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, breaking through the shackles of Renhuang. It is indeed a happy event.” Those who had always been at Ziwei Imperial Palace took the lead in congratulating him. After all, their relations.h.i.+p was a little closer, but then all the others gave their praise as well.

“Congratulations, Elder.” Ye Futian also smiled and gave his congratulations. However, Murong Yu didn’t dare to feel proud. He looked down in the direction where Ye Futian was and saluted. “Many thanks to the palace lord for granting me the divine elixir so that I have the opportunity to make a breakthrough.”

“Eder speaks too seriously. Even without the elixir, it will only be a matter of time before you break through the realm. The elixir only speeds up the process a little bit,” Ye Futian replied modestly.

After Murong Yu survived the tribulation, Ye Futian had a thought in his mind. This meant that the appointments of positions would be a lot easier.

Just as they were speaking, a heavenly might suddenly appeared above the sky. This time, the heavenly might was even stronger, suffocating everyone.

“What’s happening?” Many people looked up in the sky, and even Murong Yu showed a look of surprise.

Could it be that the tribulation hadn’t come yet?

However, he didn’t seem to feel anything.

“No, that’s not right. It’s not my tribulation.” Murong Yu’s expression suddenly changed. He was a little stunned.

Others realized as well at this juncture that this was not Murong Yu’s tribulation, after all.

Someone else was experiencing the tribulation again.

This…

The heavenly might above the firmament was getting stronger—much stronger than when Murong Yu was experiencing his tribulation previously. Ye Futian’s attention was drawn toward that direction.

In the starry sky, Renhuang Chen sat cross-legged, alone, somewhere. The divine light from the imperial stars descended on Renhuang Chen. He bathed in the divine glory, and his whole body was radiant and extremely brilliant. That heavenly might was pressing toward him.

The original cultivators from the Ziwei Imperial Palace were all pleasantly surprised that the deputy palace lord was about to break through also.

Today, two top figures from the Ziwei Imperial Palace had successive breakthroughs.

Moreover, if the deputy palace lord broke through the realm, it would be the second tribulation, and he would leap into the topmost existence here.

After all three tribulations, one was considered a deity.

Rumble… The descending divine might was becoming more and more terrifying, containing supreme coercion. Renhuang Chen opened his eyes, and sharp lights shot out from them. He picked up the starry scepter in front of him, and suddenly, above the starry sky, the infinite divine light of the stars flowed and fell on the scepter. It seemed as if it was the ruler of the starry sky.

“They are successively experiencing the divine tribulations.” Lord Taixuan and others looked at the sky above them, a little envious. It seemed that they would never have the opportunity to experience the divine tribulation.

“The elixir that Futian made is truly astonis.h.i.+ng,” Sky River Great Elder said. Although Ye Futian himself was humble, these two top figures successively experiencing divine tribulations and breaking through the realms was not a mere coincidence. Even though their realm was ripe for such an occurrence, the elixir’s effect was also indispensable.

Otherwise, why did both of them break through the realm right after they had taken the elixir?

“That’s the Sub-divine elixir. In the entire Divine Prefecture, few forces can obtain this level of elixir. Moreover, the grade of the elixir refined by Futian cannot be compared with those of other alchemy masters.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. The Divine Prefecture lacked a top alchemy master, and the Sub-divine elixirs refined by Ye Futian were almost at the pinnacle of all elixirs available in the Divine Prefecture.

“After Renhuang Chen’s breakthrough, the power of the Ziwei Segmentum will be comparable to the top forces in the Divine Prefecture; it may even stand head and shoulder above most top princ.i.p.alities.”

Renhuang Chen possessed the starry scepter and was already capable of slaying the cultivators who had survived the first Divine Tribulation of the Great Path. After his breakthrough, his combat effectiveness would only be that much stronger. This was the peak.

In the next phase, Ye Futian’s strength was a mystery to them. Then, there were still Hua Jieyu, Emperor Xi, Daoist Monk Mu, and Murong Yu, who had just had the breakthrough as well. How could many forces in the Divine Prefecture claim to be its match?

Perhaps only several most powerful Domain Chief’s Manors and the Ancient G.o.d Clan from the Divine Prefecture could match such an impressive roster.

The terrifying light of tribulation descended one after another, causing everyone’s heart to tremble nonstop. Bathing under the Imperial Stars and using the starry scepter, Renhuang Chen was able to bear all that was dealt by the powerful divine tribulation.

When the divine tribulation dissipated, a giant was born in Ziwei Segmentum.

“Congratulations to the deputy palace lord for the breakthrough.”

All these voices were heard at the same time, echoing in the starry sky. For the Ziwei Segmentum, this breakthrough was exciting and encouraging.

Ye Futian’s eyes were full of smiles. He floated in midair, looking at the figure that was bathed in starlight in the sky, and said, “Congratulations, Lord Chen.”

This voice resounded throughout the starry sky, and all the cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace were amazed.

Now that their deputy palace lord broke through the realm and successfully survived the second Divine Tribulation of the Great Path, he’s worthy of the appellation of “Lord.”

“Congratulations to Lord Chen.” A chorus of voices spoke, one after another, resonating in the starry sky.

“From this day forward, Lord Chen is the Supreme Elder of Ziwei Imperial Palace. Daoist Monk Mu, Emperor Xi, and Murong Yu are appointed as deputy palace lords of Ziwei Imperial Palace,” Ye Futian continued.
