Your Talent is Mine - Chapter 1259
Chapter 1259: Disguised as the Devourer Race!
TL: Etude
Another seven thousand years passed.
On this day, Ye Tian finally completed the Dao Refinement stage of the Triple Refinement Void. His Forbidden Dao Force had become extremely close to genuine Forbidden Power. Once refined to the utmost, his entire Dao Force would completely transform into Forbidden Power.
At that point, his Dao Force would be considered to have stepped into the Limit Dao level.
“Phew, the gains this time were tremendous!” Ye Tian exclaimed excitedly.
Although he had not yet used the Triple Refinement Void to step into the Limit Dao level, his strength had become far greater than before.
According to his own estimate, his current power was comparable to a powerful All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor.
And once he advanced reached the Limit Dao, his combat strength would likely surge to that of a top-tier All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor. At that time, he could easily kill ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors.
Furthermore, once he truly stepped into the Half-Step Domain Ancestor level, he expected that he would immediately match a Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor. He might even rapidly raise his cultivation to the Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor level within a short time.
Whoosh! The Triple Refinement Void ceased the refining process and directly transported Ye Tian out.
…
Outside the Triple Refinement Void.
Ye Tian appeared and saw Mountain Master Wind Mountain and numerous Half-Step Domain Ancestors waiting outside.
“Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, you’ve finally emerged!” Dao Ancestor Jinchen exclaimed in astonishment.
“What’s the matter?” Ye Tian asked doubtfully.
Mountain Master Wind Mountain smiled and replied, “Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, you spent too long refining inside the Triple Refinement Void. The others all finished long ago!”
Ye Tian immediately understood that his long duration inside had shocked everyone.
However, even if he knew it would draw attention, he would still do it.
He didn’t want to hide his strength and risk missing such an enormous opportunity. Besides, he had always been very high-profile. With the strength of an All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor while still an Invincible Dao Ancestor, what was wrong with standing out?
“You can disperse now,” Mountain Master Wind Mountain instructed.
Immediately, the incarnations of the Half-Step Domain Ancestors dissipated. Their main bodies had long since retreated into seclusion; how could they possibly have the leisure to keep waiting around here?
“Mountain Master, I’ll take my leave as well!”
Ye Tian also bid farewell to the Mountain Master.
Subsequently, Ye Tian returned to the Human Realm.
…
Heavenly Emperor Palace.
They had completely exhausted both opportunities provided by the Gate of Stone Eyes, turning it into a useless object.
Yet, the final results were extremely satisfying. Palace Master Heaven Punishment rose from a powerful All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor to a top-tier All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor, though he had nearly lost his sanity in the process and required a long period of rest to recover.
Palace Master Thunder Tribulation directly broke through his bottleneck, stepping into the Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor level, becoming the second Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor of the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
It could be said that the strength of Heavenly Emperor Palace instantly surged by a huge margin.
While Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain were continuously growing stronger, the Devourer Race remained completely unaware. Even after one of their own was killed, they showed no reaction—perhaps they didn’t even notice.
This was because the relationships within the Devourers were not particularly close. Moreover, it was common for members of the Devourer Race to disappear for tens of thousands of years—indeed, vanishing for millions or even tens of millions of years wouldn’t be considered unusual.
…
Human Realm.
After Ye Tian consolidated his realm, he began contemplating the matter of the Devourer Race.
Currently, the Devourer Race indeed posed the greatest threat to the Profound Void Archaic Realm and even the Dao Mountain Domain. Although Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain had extracted some intelligence about the Devourer Race from the captured Invincible Dao Ancestor, they did not dare to probe further.
Both Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain feared angering the Devourer Race, which might lead them to invade the Profound Void Archaic Realm and trigger a major catastrophe.
While the other Half-Step Domain Ancestors of Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain dared not investigate, Ye Tian had no such reservations.
Of course, he would not go personally; instead, he would send a Copy Body.
The captured Devourer named Teng Feng was merely at the Invincible Dao Ancestor level, the same level as Ye Tian, which allowed Ye Tian to copy Teng Feng’s body and infiltrate the Devourer Race in his identity.
Thus, Ye Tian requested Teng Feng’s intelligence and complete memories from Mountain Master Wind Mountain.
Only after obtaining all of Teng Feng’s memories could he convincingly impersonate him, thereby avoiding suspicion from other Devourers.
Although Mountain Master Wind Mountain didn’t fully understand Ye Tian’s intentions, he still handed over all of Teng Feng’s memories to Ye Tian.
After absorbing Teng Feng’s memories, Ye Tian gained a thorough understanding of Teng Feng’s habits and his knowledge of the Devourer Race’s internal affairs.
A chaotic void far away from the Profound Void Archaic Realm.
A figure tore through the void and appeared—it was Ye Tian.
He began to create a brand-new body—a Devourer body!
Whoosh!
In an instant, Teng Feng’s Devourer body was perfectly copied, identical to the original Teng Feng who had died, without any differences except for the memories contained within.
With this replicated Devourer body, Ye Tian could even devour universes to grow stronger, if he wished.
But Ye Tian had no intention of becoming a true Devourer.
Whoosh!
Ye Tian controlled the Devourer body, swiftly traversing the void, and soon left the area, heading toward the Devourer Realm occupied by the Devourer Race.
The Devourer Realm was also a small domain, not weaker than the small domain occupied by Wind Mountain—in fact, it was even higher in tier.
Generally, outsiders could not find the Devourer Realm, and only the Devourer Race could enter it. Even if other beings discovered it, they had no way of breaking inside.
…
Devourer Realm.
When Ye Tian approached, his body instinctively sensed the existence of the Devourer Realm.
Immediately, Ye Tian activated the Devouring Talent ability, and his body was automatically absorbed into the Devourer Realm.
This was the sole method for the Devourer Race to enter, highly secretive and convenient.
Upon entering the Devourer Realm, Ye Tian immediately felt the powerful rules of this world, far stronger than those of the Profound Void Archaic Realm.
After all, this realm was created by the Domain Ancestors of the Devourer Race; naturally, its rules were exceedingly powerful.
Ye Tian quickly returned to Teng Feng’s residence.
The Devourer Race didn’t practice formations or restrictions; their so-called residences were simply black palaces, extremely simple, where they usually spent their time in deep sleep.
Not long after returning to Teng Feng’s residence, Ye Tian couldn’t resist coming out again. He headed toward the only major city of the Devourer Race—Devourer Realm City!
Devourer Realm City was a place of trade among Devourers. Although their numbers were small, they occasionally conducted trades. There was even a Devourer Exchange inside, guarded permanently by a Devourer.
When no one came, that Devourer would remain in deep sleep. Once someone arrived, he would awaken to conduct business.
Ye Tian arrived at this Exchange in Devourer Realm City, prompting the awakening of the All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor guarding the exchange—Killwind.
