Thus, the Heavenly Mandate Academy and the Lost Clan had become allies, and cultivators from both sides moved towards each other's continent. The two continents now seemed to be one.

Meanwhile, all the forces from outside were paying close attention to what was happening here. At this time, Ye Futian brought the cultivators from the Lost Clan to the starry sky world to cultivate.

​​

In the starry sky, the divine glory of the Imperial Star was shining. Ye Futian pointed to one of the Imperial Stars, which was the one that Blind Tie communicated with back then. Ye Futian said, "This Imperial Star should be suitable for the cultivator of the Lost Clan. It could enhance the physique of those from the Lost Clan. Elders may want to go there and give it a try."

Sikong Nan nodded slightly. This time he brought some of the Lost Clan's most powerful cultivators to the Ziwei Segmentum and to the Ziwei Imperial Palace's own Book Collection Depository. Before that, Ye Futian had taken them to browse through the books inside Tianshen Academy, and the cultivators from the Lost Clan were madly absorbing and cultivating these methods.

Sikong Nan looked at a Renhuang of the Ninth-Level next to him. Suddenly the man moved forward, came under the starry sky, and closed his eyes. He was communicating with the Imperial Star. After a while, he successfully established a connection with that Imperial Star.

Now that the entire starry sky world was under Ye Futian's control, it was no longer as difficult to communicate with the Imperial Star. As long as the cultivation method and the Imperial Star had something in common, a basic resonance was possible.

Soon, that cultivator from the Lost Clan was bathing under imperial glory as he was baptized by the Great Path. His flesh started making crystalline chiming sounds, and his already powerful physique seemed to undergo some kind of change.

The other cultivators from the Lost Clan were watching quietly. That power was incredibly strong.

"No wonder this is the Imperial Star left by the Great Emperor as an inheritance. If it weren't for Emperor Ye, it would have been difficult for us to have this opportunity," Sikong Nan said gratefully to Ye Futian.

"The elder is too kind. Since we are now allies, it is my duty to ensure that the cultivation of all the elders from the Lost Clan improves. In the future, cultivators from the Lost Clan can come to this starry sky world to be baptized by the Imperial Star. Apart from that Imperial Star, there might be other Imperial Stars that are suitable for the cultivators of the Lost Clan to cultivate with," Ye Futian said.

Sikong Nan nodded slightly. Ye Futian had demonstrated sufficient sincerity in this alliance. Not only did he allow them to read the book collections of cultivation, but he had also led them here to be baptized by the Imperial Star. Indeed, he had done all that he could.

"In a few days, I will take you on a trip to the Divine Prefecture," Ye Futian continued. Sikong Nan nodded slightly, wondering what they should give to Ye Futian in return?

Just as Ye Futian promised, after some time, Ye Futian and the others left the Original Realm for the Shangqing Domain in the Divine Prefecture and came to Four Corner Village.

Ye Futian went to the school first and announced himself, "Teacher."

"Go and do it." The teacher seemed to know Ye Futian's intention in coming here; he answered him directly for a question Futian had not yet asked.

Ye Futian was a little surprised, but he then bowed slightly to salute the man inside, saying, "Now that the Original Realm is going through major changes, it was necessary for me to resort to some extraordinary means. I shouldn't be bringing anyone to disturb the village, but in order to increase our strength, I chose to come here. Thank you, teacher."

"The Original Realm will be changing, and with all these major worlds participating, I am afraid I won't be able to help you much. What you are doing now is moving in the right direction, but the most important thing is not to forget to improve your own strength; strengthening yourself is the most fundamental principle," the teacher responded as if to remind Ye Futian.

"Futian understands. But cultivation is not made in one day's time. I only wish that the great changes in Original Realm will come a little later," Ye Futian replied. He knew that he needed more time, but the changes in Original Realm were coming sooner rather than later. With the arrival of the major worlds, he didn't have much time to cultivate independently. It might still take some years for him to reach the peak of Renhuang.

That was why he was so anxious to improve the strength of their allies and the cultivators from Heavenly Mandate Academy so that Heavenly Mandate Academy may survive this great impending change.

"Everything is fated, and the changes happening in the Original Realm are part of it. Take care of yourself." The teacher said, "Go."

Ye Futian bowed slightly to the teacher, then turned to leave.

In Four Corner Village, a strange aura permeated, which contained the inheritance of divine methods. Like the starry sky world of Ziwei Segmentum, the divine methods inside Four Corner Village were also under Ye Futian's control. He could make these divine methods manifest themselves, thus allowing the cultivators of the Lost Clan to learn from them.

Among them was the picture of the Domineering Golden Peng Bird, Divine Hammer of the Protector, Miniature World, and other divine methods. All were suitable for many cultivators from the Lost Clan.

After the cultivators of the Lost Clan arrived, with the help of Ye Futian, they greedily absorbed all the cultivation methods made available to them here.

...

As time passed, Ye Futian led the cultivators from the Lost Clan and the Heavenly Mandate Academy to continue elevating their strength. In the lands of other realms, those other cultivators settled in as well and continued exploring the secrets of the Original Realm. Temporarily, none were making any moves.

Cultivators from all sides descended on the Original Realm, and countless powerful men gathered. However, no one dared to act impulsively. Once a war erupted, it could lead to terrible consequences. Forces from all sides were acting with extreme caution.

There was no change in the outside world, and Ye Futian was not about to provoke forces from the outside. He knew what he wanted to do, and he was constantly improving his own strength.

After returning from Four Corner Village, the Lost Clan finally invited Ye Futian and a group of people from the Heavenly Mandate Academy to enter the secret zone paradise of the Lost Clan. Furthermore, they opened up many of the Lost Clan's cultivation caves to Ye Futian and his group. It was natural for the Lost Clan to express their gratitude after Ye Futian had actively fulfilled his promises to them.

At this time, Ye Futian came to a cave in the secret zone paradise of the Lost Clan. There was a terrifying atmosphere in this cave, and many patterns were carved on the surrounding stone walls. These pictures were all of human shapes. When comprehended with divine consciousness, it was as if he had entered into another world. All the patterns on the stone walls seemed to come alive as ancient deities appeared between heaven and earth. Ye Futian, standing in the middle of it all, appeared exceptionally small, like a grain of sand in the ocean.

What was carved here was precisely the Battle Matrix of the Rocks.

Because Ye Futian wanted to comprehend the Battle Matrix of the Rocks, the cultivators of the Lost Clan brought him to this cave. According to them, the Battle Matrix of the Rocks was created by the many ancestors of the Lost Clan, and they had carved the battle matrix into this cave paradise.

All the ancestors who had first created this Battle Matrix of the Rocks had now fallen. They had sacrificed themselves in the process of protecting the Shenyi Continent.

Ye Futian stood quietly in this world of the ancient deities. As he was looking at those ancient god-like figures, there was a heaviness in his eyes. he bowed slightly to the phantoms of these ancient gods because every ancestor of the Lost Clan here was worthy of his respect.

A majestic force permeated, and the coercion landed squarely on Ye Futian. He closed his eyes to comprehend all this; it was as if he was completely immersed in this world.

The Battle Matrix of the Rocks he had seen in that great battle before had exerted a mighty force. He was curious if he could comprehend anything from it!
