Chapter 1282: Strength of the Dao Ancestors in the Dark Forbidden Domain!

TL: Etude

Of course, the Battle Realm Pagoda did not allow beings to exchange points for inheritances or resources unconditionally.

Whenever someone used points to exchange for inheritances or resources, the Battle Realm Pagoda would charge a certain handling fee.

Ye Tian, along with Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity, Dao Ancestor Jinchen, and many other Half-Step Domain Ancestors, had already decided to participate in battles to earn points through victory.

However, Ye Tian was not in a hurry to register. His current cultivation was All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor, and although his strength was comparable to a perfected Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor, he was still not a true Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor.

Around the Battle Stage were tens of thousands of Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors, many of whom possessed strength superior to his. Instead of rushing recklessly into battle, it was wiser to observe first.

However,

Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity lacked Ye Tian’s patience.

Seeing that ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors on various Battle Stages had already decided winners and losers—winners gaining additional points and losers leaving disappointed after losing their points—he grew restless.

Within the Battle Realm Pagoda, earning points was entirely achieved through battles and challenges.

Participants would issue challenges on the Battle Stage Rankings, setting their own point rewards. Those who accepted the challenge had to transfer points to the victor.

Interestingly, death within the Battle Realm Pagoda was not true death. The Battle Realm Pagoda protected all participants, allowing them to fight without worrying about truly dying.

Therefore, many Half-Step Domain Ancestors continuously posted challenges on the Battle Stage Rankings, and countless others accepted these challenges eagerly.

After all, death here wasn’t true death, nor would it harm their cultivation or strength. Instead, they could accumulate combat experience and improve their abilities through these battles.

Winning challenges earned them points, while losing only meant forfeiting points without causing any real harm—such opportunities were extremely rare.

Moreover, once a challenge was won, one could earn substantial points. Accumulating enough points allowed them to exchange for inheritances or resources inside the Battle Realm Pagoda, which was nothing but beneficial.

Ye Tian checked the Battle Stage Rankings, noticing numerous Half-Step Domain Ancestors issuing challenges. Some offered rewards of 10 points, while others offered 100 points.

There were even some Half-Step Domain Ancestors offering several hundred, or even thousands, of points as rewards!

Upon further inspection, Ye Tian discovered that challenges rewarding 10 points were mostly posted by ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors, who only accepted challenges from others of the same tier.

Challenges offering 100 points were mainly posted by All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestors.

As for those offering several hundred or even thousands of points, these were predominantly posted by Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors.

However, currently, most battles occurring on the Battle Stages involved only ordinary or All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestors, with very few Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors stepping into the arena.

On the Half-Step Domain Ancestor level, there were one hundred Battle Stages.

Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity noticed several ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors had already concluded their battles. The winners looked excited, while those who lost typically exited the stage after experiencing ‘death’ and losing their points.

Yet, these scenes only made Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity’s gaze burn even more intensely.

“Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, why don’t you accept a challenge too?” Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity asked.

Given Ye Tian’s strength, he could effortlessly crush any All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor below the Unity Realm. Just accepting a few challenges would earn him substantial points.

As for himself, although he was among the top ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors, his strength wasn’t truly exceptional, and victory was far from guaranteed.

Nevertheless, Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity would not feel satisfied without at least trying such a rare opportunity.

Thus, after carefully browsing, he selected a challenge rewarding 10 points. His opponent was also an ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestor, who quickly accepted his challenge.

“Since you’ve already accepted, you should go and test the waters first,” Ye Tian said calmly.

Ye Tian wanted to observe further. Besides, none of the current point rewards interested him enough to step into battle.

“Alright, I’ll go first then.”

As Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity spoke, his figure vanished, appearing instantly on the Battle Stage.

Shortly thereafter, an ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestor appeared before him.

Both parties had the determination to win.

“I am from Grinding Bone City in the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain. May I ask, which force do you belong to?” his opponent asked.

Grinding Bone City of the Dark Forbidden Domain? Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity had absolutely no knowledge about the deeper parts of the Dark Forbidden Domain, nor had he ever heard of Grinding Bone City.

Precisely because he knew nothing, he felt neither fear nor worry.

Yet he clearly understood that ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors from the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain cultivated inheritances far superior to those from Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm or the Divine Heaven Domain. Although the opponent’s cultivation seemed low—far from the All-Things Realm—actual combat strength wasn’t necessarily tied directly to cultivation level.

Ye Tian, for instance, was merely at the All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor, yet his real combat power far exceeded many Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors.

Since Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity had already accepted the challenge, he naturally decided to go all-out. Perhaps his opponent would be weak—after all, even prosperous regions had weaker practitioners.

“No need for so much nonsense! Fight if you want to fight!”

His words barely finished, Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity launched his attack first, unleashing his strongest strike immediately!

Yet, at that exact moment, his opponent moved as well!

Boom!

The opponent used a fire-attribute forbidden dao technique, instantly transforming into a Forbidden Lifeform of Fire.

Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity’s forbidden dao technique was instantly shattered. Even his defensive forbidden dao techniques were broken through, and his Forbidden Body was pierced straight through!

Crack!

Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity’s physical body fractured, severely injured.

Suddenly—

His opponent unleashed another attack, directly slaying Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity!

In almost an instant, Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity had lost the challenge and his points!

“I didn’t expect my opponent to be so weak. I thought he would be formidable, yet he didn’t even dare reveal his background. Seems he’s from some small backwater place,” arrogantly remarked the Half-Step Domain Ancestor who had slain him.

With the Battle Realm Pagoda’s assistance, Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity’s physical body soon reformed. Yet his expression was gloomy and embarrassed. He had always thought himself strong among ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors, but he’d never imagined being defeated so swiftly in just one or two moves.

Though death in the Battle Realm Pagoda merely meant physical destruction without real harm, this disparity in strength was simply too enormous!

Ye Tian naturally observed clearly everything that happened on the Battle Stage.

Although Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity wasn’t the strongest in the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm, he was still considered top-tier among ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestors. Yet, to Ye Tian’s surprise, he had lost so easily!

As expected, the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain truly represented the pinnacle of cultivation. A random ordinary Half-Step Domain Ancestor from there could easily crush Dao Ancestor Eternal Perpetuity, displaying strength comparable to weaker All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestors.

Indeed, the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain were incredibly mysterious! It also made Ye Tian realize just how weak the Dao Ancestors from their Dao Mountain Domain truly were.
