Chapter 1220: The Human Realm, A Tremendous Surge in Power!
TL: Etude
Ye Tian granted some ordinary forbidden insect corpses to the most outstanding Dao Ancestors and the elite members of the Nine Limits Legion among the Human Race. He instructed them to offer sacrifices of the Forbidden Insect Race to enhance their strength and cultivation progress.
As for himself, he sacrificed the corpses of a commander-level forbidden insect and an elite-level forbidden insect. After the ritual, his cultivation speed increased dramatically, and his strength also saw notable improvement.
For the Dao Ancestors, sacrificing the Forbidden Insect Race was undoubtedly one of the fastest ways to enhance their cultivation. The process came with virtually no side effects, and the increase in cultivation speed was nearly permanent—this was the most critical aspect.
Because of this, the Dao Ancestors were eager to either slay more Forbidden Insect Race members for sacrifices or collect their corpses.
At this moment, however, dissatisfaction towards the Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain was growing among many Dao Ancestors. They questioned why these two factions, which also had Half-Step Domain Ancestors, had not participated in the battle earlier. If the Half-Step Domain Ancestors had stepped in from the beginning, they might have completely wiped out the Forbidden Insect Race.
Those making these complaints were usually foolish or weak Dao Ancestors. Those who understood the situation better knew that the Profound Void Archaic Realm had the power to easily eradicate the Forbidden Insect Race.
However, the Profound Void Archaic Realm treated the Forbidden Insect Race as a form of “nurtured poison” and was unwilling to destroy them completely.
Over time, these complaints from the Dao Ancestors gradually faded, as none dared to openly oppose the Half-Step Domain Ancestors.
As the years passed, the major bases dominated the Forbidden Insect Race completely. With the addition of two Half-Step Domain Ancestors to the bases, it became easy to suppress even lord-level forbidden insects.
It was said that just one Half-Step Domain Ancestor was enough to slaughter commander-level forbidden insects on a massive scale.
As a result, the population of the Forbidden Insect Race decreased sharply, falling to less than five million in no time.
At this point, the Half-Step Domain Ancestors rarely intervened anymore, ensuring that the Forbidden Insect Race would not collapse entirely.
Thus, over the course of tens of thousands of years, countless forbidden insect corpses were sent to the Profound Void Archaic Realm for sacrifices, causing the realm to continually expand and grow stronger.
During this period, several medium-sized Forbidden Void Realms were also born from the Profound Void Archaic Realm.
Ye Tian personally claimed one of the medium-sized Forbidden Void Realms and secured another for Blackwind Mountain before ceasing further efforts.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to claim more Forbidden Void Realms, but the rules had changed. The major factions allowed only Invincible Dao Ancestors to compete for them, leaving Ye Tian at a disadvantage.
Consequently, the Heavenly Emperor Palace secured one Forbidden Void Realm, while the Heavenly Sea Sect, Limitless Sky Sect, and Myriad Domains Divine Hall joined forces to claim another. However, their success came at a heavy cost, including the deaths of two Invincible Dao Ancestors and the loss of a top-grade forbidden supreme treasure.
The Forbidden Void Realm Ye Tian had claimed, however, belonged entirely to him. He possessed absolute control over it.
Ye Tian moved the entire Human Race into this realm without any secrecy. Although all the major factions became aware of this, none dared to act against him due to the backing of Blackwind Mountain.
Once the Human Race was fully relocated, Ye Tian set up grand formations to completely transform the Forbidden Void Realm.
At this point, no one, not even a Half-Step Domain Ancestor, could enter the Human Race’s Forbidden Void Realm without his permission. Only a true Domain Ancestor could forcibly breach it.
…
The Human Realm
Ye Tian named this medium-sized Forbidden Void Realm the Human Realm to distinguish it from other Forbidden Void Realms. As more and more Forbidden Void Realms appeared, naming them became a small but necessary task.
The name “Human Realm” began to spread throughout the Profound Void Archaic Realm, becoming known to countless factions.
To facilitate movement between the small Forbidden Void Realms and the Human Realm for Dao Ancestors and True Ancestors, Ye Tian granted permissions for two Forbidden Void Realms to connect, establishing a direct passageway.
Ye Tian crafted special tokens to regulate access to the passageway between the two Forbidden Void Realms. Only those carrying the tokens could travel freely between the realms.
After stabilizing the Human Race within the Human Realm, Ye Tian occasionally hunted forbidden insects, but he spent most of his time in cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, 300,000 years passed.
At this moment.
Ye Xingyue, Xiao Yue, and Ye Yu had all become Pinnacle Dao Ancestors. The Human Race had also seen the emergence of many Dao Ancestors of the Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven levels. Even one or two Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors had been born. The sheer number of Dao Ancestors in the Human Race had grown astronomically.
Even within the Nine Limits Legion, nearly half of its members were now Dao Ancestors. The rest were primarily Top-tier Dao Ancestors, Pinnacle Dao Ancestors, and even Invincible Dao Ancestors.
Of course.
It wasn’t just the Human Race whose strength had grown significantly. Other factions had also seen a surge in the number of Dao Ancestors. The current era’s brilliance surpassed even the heyday of the Vast Sea Domain. Back then, the Vast Sea Domain had no Forbidden Insect Race sacrifices, nor did it have access to an abundance of forbidden wondrous objects. For the Vast Sea Domain, a single forbidden wondrous object was considered a rare treasure.
Now, forbidden wondrous objects seemed as common as everyday resources. With such abundant resources, how could the growth of Dao Ancestors not accelerate?
“The Forbidden Dao Technique: Dark Limit Dao Spear has finally reached the entry realm!” Ye Tian exclaimed joyfully.
After such an extended period of cultivation, combined with the enhancement from the Profound Void Archaic Realm, the assistance of the Forbidden Void Realm, and the effects of his Forbidden Talent, he had only just managed to achieve the entry realm in the Dark Limit Dao Spear. This demonstrated how challenging it was to gain even a basic mastery of a Forbidden Dao Technique. According to his knowledge, even Ancestor Migu and others had only reached the entry realm in their own Forbidden Dao Techniques.
As for the Shadow Thorn Forbidden Dao Technique, he hadn’t reached the entry realm yet, but he wasn’t far off.
During this time, Ye Tian also created two new Forbidden Dao Techniques. One was a speed-oriented technique called Shadow Escape, though it was the weakest among Forbidden Dao Techniques. Since he lacked a speed-related Forbidden Talent, creating this technique at all was already an impressive feat.
The other Forbidden Dao Technique he created was a defensive technique called Nine Limits Armor. While this technique was relatively ordinary, its power was exceptional when combined with the Forbidden Body.
With these four Forbidden Dao Techniques at his disposal, Ye Tian had almost entirely covered his weaknesses. Combined with his improvements in cultivation, his combat strength had reached an entirely new level.
If he were to face the Flame Ancestor and the five Pinnacle Dao Ancestors again, he was confident he could slaughter them all with ease in a short amount of time. Even if he fought the commander-level forbidden insect again, he could now kill it without sustaining any injuries.
At present, although Ye Tian’s realm was still that of a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor, his combat strength was comparable to that of a formidable Invincible Dao Ancestor. In certain aspects, he even surpassed typical Invincible Dao Ancestors.
“It’s a pity that my Infinite Dao is so overwhelmingly powerful. Trying to comprehend it to its ultimate state will likely take an eternity. Fortunately, achieving the Invincible Dao Ancestor realm doesn’t require complete mastery of the Infinite Forbidden Dao. Otherwise, I’d probably never have a chance in my lifetime!” Ye Tian murmured to himself.
The Forbidden Dao was vast and profound—so much so that even Domain Ancestors couldn’t fully comprehend it. Therefore, he didn’t aim to fully master the Infinite Forbidden Dao. Instead, his current goal was to focus on comprehending as much of the Infinite Dao as possible.
