Rumor had it that Ye Futian had looked into the divine casket back at Cangyuan Continent while Muyun Lan could only watch on from the side.

And now, they were going to witness this for themselves.

Both Muyun Lan and Mo Ke’s eyes started bleeding when they looked upon the body. Was Ye Futian really able to look at the body without getting injured?

They watched as that man with white hair continued to walk toward where the divine casket was. A terrifying aura of light shone in his eyes because those eyes of his seemed to be hiding true Divine Light within them. He had tried this several times when he was at Cangyuan Continent, so he knew how terrifying this corpse could be. He also knew how he could minimize the force that surged out of it.

He walked all the way to one corner of the casket and took a glance into the casket.

With just that one glance, he witnessed that incredible scene yet again. The body of Shenjia the Great Emperor had transformed into countless ancient inscriptions, and those inscriptions went right into his eyes and into his consciousness, causing his body to tremble slightly. Those beams of light had not only entered his eyes, but that frightening Divine Light had also enveloped all of Ye Futian’s body. It was as if those inscriptions were printed directly onto his body.

“He’s really done it.” Everyone felt their hearts shudder when they saw this scene. They knew that Ye Futian must have looked upon the body inside the casket; otherwise, this amazing scene would not have happened.

However, he did not end up getting thrown backward, and his eyes did not bleed. The inscriptions within the casket were even projected onto his body. This made a lot of them wonder, Isn’t a body lying within that divine casket? Where did these inscriptions come from?

Were great and talented people like Muyun Lan and Mo Ke unable to even glance at the inside of the casket because of these inscriptions?

Then, how was Ye Futian able to do this?

Woong! Just then, they watched as Ye Futian’s body was thrown backward, and his eyes shut fast. Countless eyes were on him right now, so the vast space they were in seemed rather quiet.

After a few moments, Ye Futian’s eyes finally opened again. Tiny capillaries in his eyes had burst, and it was clear that it had been painful for him to resist the force from the casket earlier. His eyes had undergone a tremendous amount of pressure, but he managed to hang in there and look in a few more times.

Muyun Lan and Mo Ke had been unable to do it, but Ye Futian, who was only a Level-five Renhuang, had managed it. This made many of them gasp. Rumors didn’t appear out of thin air; they had heard a lot about Ye Futian before this and how he was truly as capable as his fame claimed him to be. His gifts and potential were astonishing, and he was definitely no less powerful than Muyun Lan or Mo Ke.

“What do you think now?” someone in the crowd looked up at Mo Ke and asked. It was Fang Huan from Four Corner Village. He knew everything about what Mo Ke and the Demon Cloud had done. As a cultivator from the village, Fang Huan also viewed Mo Ke as an enemy.

Before this, all these cultivators threatened Ye Futian, and many of them had thought too highly of themselves. They thought that Ye Futian was being arrogant and wasn’t truly as powerful as the rumors claimed he was.

But how about now?

Mo Ke looked down at Fang Huan. His aloof gaze carried some frostiness. He had been rather surprised, too, and didn’t think that Ye Futian would have been capable of this. It seemed like this white-haired young man who had stormed the ancient royal family of Duan and gained the recognition of Four Corner Village was not simple at all.

“He’s really not bad,” replied Mo Ke. After that, he looked towards Ye Futian and asked, “How did you do that?”

He had looked into the divine casket before too, and he knew what was going on in there. One glance had been enough to strike fear in his heart till today. Even though he still wanted to look in, his heart was extremely wary.

So how did that Ye Futian actually do it?

Ye Futian turned to look at Mo Ke and said, “You’d get used to it after a few times. Do you want to come and try?”

“…” Everyone looked oddly at Ye Futian. Why did his words sound so fake?

If one looked into the divine casket a few more times, you’d get used to it?

Was this fellow trying to fool Mo Ke?

Mo Ke looked at Ye Futian rather doubtfully as well. After a few times?

His heart still felt fearful after just that one glance into the casket. Would he really become used to it if he tried looking again?

If that was the case, then why didn’t Muyun Lan try again?

“Are you trying to fool me?” asked Mo Ke as he stared at Ye Futian. He was sure there was something special about Ye Futian. Since he could do something that neither himself nor Muyun Lan had been able to, there must be something about him that the two of them didn’t have, allowing him to gaze into the casket.

“Before this, you asked me a question and refused to believe my answer. Now, you’re asking me a question again, and you still don’t want to take my word for it. In that case, why bother asking me?” retorted Ye Futian. Mo Ke kept his eye on Ye Futian as a cold glint flashed in his eyes. If not for the fact that he was a little wary today, he would have unleashed an attack on Ye Futian to force him to say how he had done it.

But cultivators from both Four Corner Village and the ancient royal family of Duan were here. Also, they were right outside the Domain Chief’s Manor. Since there was probably nothing he could do, he decided not to attack.

“If you’re not going to look at it, then I’m going to continue looking,” said Ye Futian to Mo Ke before going back towards that same upper corner of the divine casket again.

At this moment, countless eyes were frozen as they stared at Ye Futian in shock.

Was he serious?

Was it true that he was getting used to it after taking a few more looks, as he said earlier?

Mo Ke had an equally puzzled look on his face when he watched Ye Futian.

Ye Futian was really using his own actions to prove his point?

Before this, Ye Futian had already proved himself with his own actions. He said that he could look into the casket, and he really did it.

Countless eyes watched as Ye Futian stood diagonally above the casket and looked in. Again, it only took one glance for light to envelope him and for that gorgeous Divine Light to shoot out at Ye Futian.

“He’s doing it again.” Chen Yi shook his head as he looked at Ye Futian. He understood this fellow now. Ye Futian went all out no matter what and didn’t seem to understand the concept of staying low-key. So many people were here right now, and many of them would be watching him closely.

Chen Yi was right. Many cultivators from the Shangqing Domain and other top factions of power were all here. Some had walked over, while some remained in the shadows. But regardless of where they were, they all looked towards that white-haired person in the air.

There was even a group of people standing in the air inside the Domain Chief’s Manor. They, too, looked at Ye Futian’s body.

But actually, Ye Futian wasn’t trying to attract attention. He didn’t want to miss such an opportunity. Back in the Cangyuan Continent, he had wanted to take a few more looks at this casket so that he could comprehend the secrets within, but it had been taken away, and there was nothing he could do about it. This left him feeling empty and disappointed.

So when Duan Qiong suggested coming here, he agreed to it without hesitation and immediately came out to view the body in the casket. He knew that he didn’t have much more time to do this, and he had already gained some enlightenment from looking at the corpse.

As everyone else continued to watch, Ye Futian looked into the casket several more times. In fact, the amount of time he could spend looking increased the more times he tried to take a look.

It was as if what he said earlier was right—one could really get used to it after a few times.

Thus, the hesitant and indecisive Mo Ke from before decided to take a step forward again. It seemed as if he believed what Ye Futian said and wanted to try again!
