Chapter 1899 - Cloud Wood

Chapter 1899 Cloud Wood
What is that?
At that moment, someone was looking towards the center of the island. There was a straight and tall tree within the endless lightning right beneath the Lightning God, flashing with purple thunder light. When the lightning will fell upon it, it was completely engulfed.


That is a thunder cloud tree,
someone whispered, his eyes fixed sharply upon the tree.


It is indeed, but it has changed. It has transformed into cloud wood.


Cloud wood?
Ye Futian heard the discussion going on beside him and looked towards Emperor Helian and Beigong Ao questioningly.

A thunder-elemental divine item,
said Beigong Ao.
Ten years ago, the thunder cloud tree had not completely matured into cloud wood, but now that ten years have passed, it has. Now that there is cloud wood there, I wonder who will be able to get it.

There was a look of excitement in his eyes. Obviously, he wanted to be the one to get it.
A thunder cloud tree was a divine tree of lightning, and they were extremely difficult to grow. They could only grow under the power of the Great Path of Thunder, and it took hundreds of years to become cloud wood. They had to be tempered in the natural power of the Great Path of Thunder for centuries in order to produce this thunder-elemental divine item.
Once the cloud wood was produced, it was extremely valuable, especially to cultivators who cultivated thunder-elemental power. It was a divine item to help them understand the power of the Great Path of Thunder more deeply. It was even comparable to top-level ritual implements when used in combat. It gave you the power to control thunder and increased the power of the Great Path of Thunder.
So much cloud wood could only have been formed by an entire thunder cloud tree that had been growing for many years. It was probably more than 100,000 years old.
Supreme Deity Donglai had fallen many years ago, but there were traces of him left in many places here. This meant that this tree may have been formed of the thunder will of someone who had come here to learn about medicine while Supreme Deity Donglai was still here so that he could produce a powerful thunder artifact.

But he himself had not made it to this day.
However, as the cultivators all stared at the cloud wood, their eyes burned with desire. They couldn’t wait to get their hands on it right away. Its value in their eyes was greater than ninth-tier ritual implements.
At that moment, many of them had already stepped forward towards the area filled with lightning. But the lightning will there was terrifying, and some of them were knocked back as soon as they stepped within with lightning swirling around their bodies. Some of them were even burned black by the lightning.
Boom!
Beside Ye Futian and the others, a cultivator was sent flying backward, spitting up blood. His body seemed to have cracked, revealing lines of blood. There was a miserable look on his face.
Many powerful cultivators had appeared before the island, and many of them cultivated the power of the Great Path of Thunder. That was why they had rushed over here. Many of those who did not cultivate the Great Path of Thunder had directly left. They did not want to waste any more time here. They would rather go elsewhere to find better opportunities.
Amid Ye Futian’s group, Beigong Ao and Beigong Shuang both cultivated the power of the Great Path of Thunder. Thus, they were not willing to leave. They stared at the cloud wood, but there were so many cultivators here. If they wanted it, it would not be easy to get.
Although some people had been knocked back, those who had already cultivated to high levels could enter. They were trying to get through the field of lightning to reach the center and obtain the cloud wood.

These people did not come here ten years ago,
said Beigong Ao, looking at them.

Why do you say this?
asked Ye Futian.


No one can go right inside,
said Beigong Ao.
The whole island is covered by the Great Path of Thunder. It contains the powerful will of the powerful person who came here to learn medicine from Supreme Deity Donglai. Who of the cultivators here could withstand the mighty will of someone of that level?

Ye Futian naturally understood this. He looked forward. This mystical place within Eastern Deity Island was extremely suitable for cultivating. Forcing one’s way in would be meaningless. Those cultivators probably saw the cloud wood, and their hearts were filled with greed, so they wanted to go right in and take it.
But it would probably require one to resonate with the will of the Great Path that had been left behind by the great figure to get the cloud wood.
Beigong Ao looked at Ye Futian, his eyes burning.

Why are you looking at me like that?
asked Ye Futian. He didn’t mind Beigong Ao looking at him; he was used to people looking at him. But the way he was looking at him made him feel a little strange.

Why don’t you try?
said Beigong Ao. Ye Futian was the one who had made the statue display its holiness. And not long ago, he had thought that the Flowering Trees movements were because of Ye Futian as well. Given that, the will of the Great Path of Thunder down below them should be nothing.

Alright,
said Ye Futian with a nod. He had thought this as well. Since the cloud wood was that precious, he would do all he could to help Beigong Ao get it; it would help Beigong Ao’s cultivation. Perhaps he would have the chance to advance to the next level.
Not far away from them, other cultivators were starting to try as well. Among them, many were just like Ye Futian and the others. They had come from teaching forces on the mainland.
Ye Futian looked forward, his eyes becoming extremely bright. It was as if they could see the flowing traces of the Great Path. Everything became very clear and natural.
At that moment, that which Ye Futian sensed and that which he saw seemed to become two different worlds.

He felt the might of an extremely powerful thunder god’s punishment, mighty as a stormy sea. He groaned and could not help but take a step back. The power of thunder swirled around him, and his face had gone pale.

So strong,
Ye Futian said to himself. The will of the Great Path that the great figure had left behind was terrifying. When he could fully perceive it, he would have to withstand the full brunt of it when it fell upon his senses.

My lord!
Beside him, Beigong Ao was shocked and stepped forward in a panic. He was worried that Ye Futian had come to some trouble. This seemed like something that had never happened before.

I’m alright,
said Ye Futian, motioning for Beigong Ao to step back. This was completely normal. The reason he had not experienced this before was that the Flowering Tree had not attacked him. He had just perceived the Great Path and absorbed its power.
He continued forward, coming to the stone wall once again. Everyone beside him was looking at him, their eyes full of scorn. He had not even been able to withstand a single instant?

A Pavilion Lord?
someone whispered. Such a young Pavilion Lord was a rare sight. The person who had spoken said to Ye Futian,
You will not be able to pry out the ancestor’s will so easily. If you are not high enough level, you shouldn’t even try. Be careful, or you will get hurt.

Ye Futian swept his gaze over him, then turned and smiled, saying,
Don’t trouble yourself on my account.

On saying this, he once again entered his previous state. In a flash, he could see the picture before him had changed in his perception. He could see the image of an incomparably terrifying thunder god standing in the air, reaching out its hand and drawing in all the true thunder power in the area and sending it downward.
In an instant, terrible thunder waves swept out, shattering everything. The thunder waves followed the rhythm of the Great Path. They overlapped in an extremely profound and complicated manner.
Ye Futian suddenly realized that what had been left behind here was a kind of thunder law power. Perhaps this was part of the trade. The person had come here to learn from Supreme Deity Donglai and thus had needed to leave something behind.
Once Ye Futian realized this, his divine consciousness shot out, trying to mold itself to the will. This produced a certain resonance. Gradually, he began to be able to feel the thunder attack more clearly.

Elder,
said Ye Futian to Beigong Ao. Lines of the light of his divine consciousness shout out from his mind, resonated with Beigong Ao’s.
Beigong Ao knew Ye Futian was helping him. Although he knew this, when Ye Futian transmitted his understanding to him, he felt greatly shaken. He groaned, and blood flowed from his mouth. But he did not give up. He took a step forward. He seemed to have fallen into a trancelike state.
He was a cultivator of the Great Path of Thunder and had a deep understanding of thunder methods. When Ye Futian did this, it was as if he had suddenly seen the sun in the sky. Everything became very clear to him.
Beigong Ao continued forward, entering right into that area of thunder. This scene made Beigong Shuang rather nervous and worried that an accident would happen.

Hmm?

Everyone looked surprised. Beigong Ao had actually managed to make it in, making them all feel a little bit threatened. After all, Beigong Ao’s level was much higher than Ye Futian’s. He was an upper-level Renhuang with a seventh tier Divine Wheel.
Emperor Helian watched this scene unfold, then looked at Ye Futian beside him. He sensed that Ye Futian was doing something that allowed Beigong Ao to move forward, step by step.
Would he really be able to get the cloud wood this time?
Thinking of this, Emperor Helian was rather moved. When he had asked Ye Futian to take the position of Pavilion Lord of Dongyuan Pavilion, he had never thought that anything like this would happen.
