Chapter 164: The Appearance of an Emperor-Level Ferocious Beast!
"Ten years!" Ye Tian felt this period to be immensely long, but such was the pace of opening the brain domain. This was still with his Dawn-level talent; for those with Moonlight-level talent, reaching the pinnacle of the Saint level would take at least 50 years, and for those with Morning Star-level talent, it could take hundreds or even thousands of years.
Considering that the lifespan of an average Saint-level being was only a thousand years, it showed that a Star-level talent practitioner aspiring to reach the pinnacle of the Saint level might only achieve it at the end of their lifespan, with little hope of advancing to the Emperor level.
"10 years isn’t much, and if I maintain three times time acceleration, I can advance to the pinnacle of the Saint level in just over 3 years. But it means my lifespan will deplete thrice as fast, effectively passing 10 years. However, with a lifespan of 1500 years, sacrificing a few years to reach the pinnacle of the Saint level is a profitable trade-off," Ye Tian thought.
Moreover, this was just a basic-level time talent. If he acquired a higher-level time talent, he might ascend to the Saint level’s pinnacle within a year. And if he obtained treasures aiding in opening the brain domain, this period could be shortened even further.
In the following days, Ye Tian maintained three times time acceleration to work on opening his brain domain.
After ten days, he finally increased the depth of his brain domain to 2%, instantly breaking the limits of his physical condition under the influence of the deep brain domain. His body absorbed countless elemental energies, boosting his physical strength to 200,000 elephants.
Originally, Ye Tian’s physical strength was at 100,000 elephant power. Now, it had doubled, and his overall strength had increased twofold.
…
While Ye Tian was in seclusion, in a beast world connected to a spatial rift not far away:
Above a vast forest, two enormous ferocious beasts stood in the void, overlooking the spatial rift below.
One of them, a giant ape with golden eyes and a mountainous stature, exuded immense strength. Countless ferocious beasts, including King-level beasts, cowered in fear below it.
This was not a Saint-level ferocious beast, but an Emperor-level one!
The other beast, although not at the Emperor-level, stood on equal footing with the giant ape, indicating its unusual status. It resembled the Ming Illusion Beast Ye Tian had slain.
If Ye Tian were here, he would recognize it as a Saint-level Ming Illusion Beast. It was at the pinnacle of Saint-level strength, capable of killing ordinary Emperor-level beasts. If it chose to flee, even top-tier Emperor-level beasts would struggle to kill it.
Thus, the giant ape, named Kong, did not underestimate it.
"Ming Kong, how is the task of your junior progressing?" King Kong (Jinang) asked in human language.
"Why use human language, Kong? I somewhat dislike it," Ming Kong replied in a beastly tongue.
"I quite like human language. It’s a small difference of opinion. Let's not dwell on it. Contact your junior instead. A new world is a great treasure for us in the Ape Dragon Beast Realm. It holds our chance to advance further," Kong, the giant ape, said.
"Understood, I'm well aware of the importance of a new world. I'll contact my junior right now," Ming Kong responded.
Ming Kong then performed a bloodline secret technique, trying to contact its junior.
Soon, its expression drastically changed: "No, I can't contact my junior. The bloodline connection is broken; it has fallen!"
Overwhelming murderous intent boiled within Ming Kong, wishing to decimate the human world in vengeance for its junior.
Its kind was extremely rare, with less than ten in existence, always on the brink of extinction. For the plan, Ming Kong had sent its only junior, a mere Great Martial Warrior-level being, to the human world and even personally taught it human knowledge obtained from a human's memories. Its junior's intelligence should have kept it safe from discovery.
But now, its junior was dead!
"King Kong, you said my junior was almost invincible, would easily complete the task, but now it's dead, and our clan has lost another member!!!" Ming Kong roared.
Boom!
Countless lower-level ferocious beasts died from the shockwave, demonstrating Ming Kong's fury.
Kong quickly said, "Ming Kong, your clansman possessed the talents of invisibility and disguise. Even I couldn't detect its disguise and invisibility. How could it have been killed?"
"I don't know, but it is dead. What do you suggest we do?" Ming Kong spoke angrily.
"Revenge!" King Kong gritted his teeth. "I'll contact some beast allies to avenge you. The enemy must still be near the spatial rift. I will personally strike through space to kill him. How does that promise sound?"
Ming Kong calmed down and gazed at Kong, "To strike across a realm, you too will be hurt by the backlash, requiring at least ten years to recover. Are you willing to act?"
"I am willing," King Kong said helplessly.
Ming Kong was invited by him, and even the idea of sending Ming Kong's junior into the human world was his. This region was his territory; he had to take responsibility for any mishaps. For an ordinary Saint-level beast, he might ignore their rage or even devour them, but he couldn't kill Ming Kong. Offending Ming Kong would mean no peace for him in the future. Despite the cost, he had to quell Ming Kong's fury.
Moreover, he too had suffered a great loss - a Water Dragon Pearl, a treasure. If given to a beast with dragon bloodline, it could drive them to desperate lengths. While it wasn't useful to him, the value of the Water Dragon Pearl was immense. Now fallen into human hands, he must kill that person and send beasts to retrieve the pearl.
"I await your news," Ming Kong said gravely.
Kong began contacting beast allies, actually using their situation to invite them.
As long as there were benefits, even rival beasts might help.
Soon, three Emperor-level ferocious beasts arrived.
"Kong, we are here!" the three Emperor-level beasts appeared before King Kong.
"I request your assistance to tear the spatial rift, just enough for me to strike through. It only needs to be maintained for three seconds, during which I will strike the enemy from across realms," Kong explained.
"What about our reward?" the three Emperor-level beasts demanded.
"Here!" Kong gave each of them a spirit medicine capable of refining bloodline power.
"Deal, we agree!" the three Emperor-level beasts exclaimed excitedly.
Tearing the spatial rift wasn't difficult for them. Though it required enough tearing for Kong to act, causing minor backlash, and only needed to be maintained for three seconds, they would recover within a year.
Suffering a year of backlash for a treasure capable of enhancing their bloodline power was a profitable deal.
"Begin!" Kong ordered.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three Emperor-level beasts unleashed their power, attacking the spatial rift.
Terrifying beast force acted upon the rift.
In an instant, the spatial rift, which was only at a one-star level, began to crack open...
