Your Talent is Mine

Chapter 174: Shocking Turn, The Fall of an Emperor!

Returning home, Ye Tian couldn’t wait to start integrating the mystic-grade strength talent he had acquired. His strength talent had already reached the brink of mystic-grade, and with the absorption of Feng Luxue’s mystic-grade strength talent, it was destined to transform into a true mystic-grade strength talent.

The integration began with a thought. Boom! The transformation started; the strength ‘mystery’ merged perfectly with his muscles, becoming an integral part of his body without any barrier. Ten minutes later, the integration was complete. Covered in sweat, Ye Tian checked his strength talent, which had indeed transformed into a mystic-grade strength talent.

【Strength Talent: Mystic】

“Just like the defense talent, once it becomes mystic-grade, there’s no division into parts. It seems that the amplification effect of a mystic-grade talent is a hundredfold, and it’s impossible to continue improving unless I ascend to a higher level of talent,” Ye Tian speculated.

(TL: Essentially, pseudo-mystic level talents have ‘sub-realms’, which I have translated as a percent. Mystic realm talents seem to have something called ‘Mystery’ which is the equivalent of comprehending ‘Laws’ or ‘Daos’ in other novels.)

But is there a talent above the mystic-grade? He didn’t know, and probably no one else in Zhonghai Super Base knew either.

Next, Ye Tian began integrating Feng Luxue’s 40% pseudo-mystic-grade speed talent, finally raising his own 20% pseudo-mystic-grade speed talent to 60%. His speed increased manifold. After using up his two copying opportunities, Ye Tian began his closed-door cultivation, striving to enhance his Level 820 cultivation.

Thus, Ye Tian continuously opened his deep brain domain in a top-level cultivation room with triple time acceleration. He even used his only pill that assisted in opening brain domains.

In a blink, three months passed, and Ye Tian ended his seclusion. By then, his deep brain domain had opened up to 12%, and he had copied several speed talents from the golden-armored corpse puppets, raising his speed talent to a 90% pseudo-mystic-grade. These corpse puppets were from the batch he had slain in the divine space and preserved in his spatial storage. Now, they served a purpose as he copied their pseudo-mystic-grade speed talents. Unfortunately, their talents were too low to transform his pseudo-mystic-grade speed talent into a mystic-grade.

However, Ye Tian estimated that with one more pseudo-mystic-grade speed talent, he could truly transform his speed talent into a mystic-grade.

In the Tian Pavilion, Ye Tian and Ye Yu sat on the highest floor. By now, Xiao Yu had become a King-level practitioner with her Morning Star-grade cultivation talent, top-tier cultivation methods, and the top-level cultivation room, along with various treasures for tempering her meridians. She had rapidly ascended to the pinnacle of the master level and then stepped into the King level, as Ye Tian had anticipated.

“How is the development of the Tian Pavilion now?” Ye Tian asked.

“Brother, the Tian Pavilion is developing well. Except for Yiyi and a few younger ones who haven’t started cultivating, all other members have become warriors. Zhao Hua and Sun Yu have even become peak Elite Martial Warriors, soon to step into the Great Martial Warrior level,” Ye Yu reported.

Zhao Hua and Sun Yu were the other two with Morning Star-grade talents discovered by Ye Tian at the age of 15. After arriving at the Tian Pavilion, they began cultivating immediately. In just three months, they reached the peak of the elite warrior level, showcasing the terrifying amplification effect of good cultivation methods, top-level cultivation rooms, and Morning Star-grade cultivation talents.

“Good!” Ye Tian was very satisfied with the development of the Tian Pavilion. He anticipated that soon, the Tian Pavilion would see a host of masters and even King-level powerhouses. These talents would be of great use then!

After giving a few instructions to Ye Yu, Ye Tian left the headquarters of the Tian Pavilion. However, just then, a message arrived from the headquarters of the Loose Cultivators Alliance.

“A meeting of Saint experts!” Ye Tian frowned slightly.

The Loose Cultivators Alliance seldom held meetings, at least not since he had ascended to the Saint level, as it was only a loosely organized group.

“Something big must have happened,” Ye Tian speculated.

Thus, Ye Tian headed to the headquarters of the Loose Cultivators Alliance.

In the highest-level meeting room of the Loose Cultivators Alliance’s headquarters, Ye Tian arrived and saw many Saints, including the Frenzied Sword Saint, with whom he had previously conducted transactions. Shortly, the meeting room gathered about 30 Saints. Most of them were ordinary Saints or Minor Saints, with only a few at the level of Great Saint. After all, there were only a few dozen Great Saints in the entire Zhonghai Super Base, so it was impossible for the Loose Cultivators Alliance to have many of them.

“Great Saint Ye Tian!” The Saints greeted him, and Ye Tian responded casually.

Then, the Frenzied Sword Saint approached. “Great Saint Ye Tian, do you know the purpose of this meeting?” he asked with a solemn tone.

“I’m not sure,” Ye Tian replied, shaking his head.

Frenzied Sword Saint conveyed through a secret message, “Great Saint Ye Tian, it’s likely that there’s trouble at the Five Star-level spatial rift. As usual, Great Saints like us must go there.”

“A problem at the Five Star-level spatial rift?” Ye Tian frowned. This was troubling. The Five Star-level spatial rift was a critical juncture. If a rift like that were breached, hordes of ferocious beasts could invade Earth, leading to many Emperor-level beasts appearing on Earth, which would pose a significant danger to many bases. The destruction caused by an Emperor-level beast on Earth would be catastrophic for humanity.

Suddenly, Ye Tian’s copy talent enveloped several warriors with Moonlight-level cultivation talents, who emitted terrifying auras, indicating they were at the Emperor level. However, to Ye Tian’s disappointment, none of them possessed mystic-grade talents, though one had a pseudo-mystic-grade speed talent. Ye Tian had not copied this individual’s talent yet and planned to do so, but he had to wait for about ten more days before he could copy again.

As the meeting room’s doors opened, four Emperors walked in. One of them, walking in front, was followed by the other three.

“The Emperor leading the way is the Kuruo Emperor, ranked ninth among the thirty-six Emperors, and is considered the second-in-command of the Loose Cultivators Alliance,” Frenzied Sword Saint informed Ye Tian through a secret message.

With this introduction, Ye Tian gained a preliminary understanding of these Emperors.

The appearance of four Emperors made many of the Saints present tense up.

Kuruo Emperor spoke, “The Loose Cultivators Alliance is a loose organization and doesn’t compel everyone to attend meetings. However, your presence is appreciated. Some of you might already know, and the rumors are true. There’s indeed been an incident at the Five Star-level spatial rift, and one of the thirty-six Emperors has fallen.”

“What!” All the Saints were shocked and their expressions changed drastically. The fall of one of the thirty-six Emperors was significant news. How could such an event have occurred without any information being leaked?

“Kuruo Emperor, which Emperor has fallen?” Frenzied Sword Saint asked gravely. He was unaware of this development and was deeply shocked. The fallen wasn’t just any Emperor, but one of the thirty-six.
