Your Talent is Mine

Chapter 463: Mystic-Level Necrotic Talent, Mission Accomplished!

At the bottom of the River of Oblivion, there should be Netherworld Stones, since even Children of the Universe dared not venture to the riverbed. If Ye Tian could enter the riverbed, it would mean that he could obtain a considerable amount of Netherworld Stones.

“First, phase into space and take a look at the riverbed!”

Immediately, Ye Tian activated his spatial talent and phased into space.

His body was concealed within the fabric of space, entering the corresponding spatial area of the riverbed.

Simultaneously, Ye Tian activated his Xumi Eyes, piercing through space, and scanned the riverbed area.

Under Ye Tian’s investigation, the situation at the bottom of the river was laid bare.

Ye Tian kept searching, trying to find a piece of Netherworld Stone.

Suddenly, a figure caught Ye Tian’s attention.

“It’s actually a necrotic creature!” Ye Tian exclaimed in surprise.

He had once encountered a necrotic creature in the Divine Tomb World, which was the only necrotic creature he had ever encountered.

Unexpectedly, there were also necrotic creatures in the Realm of Oblivion, and he had encountered one so easily.

“Investigate!”

Ye Tian’s clone talent enveloped the creature, clearly revealing the necrotic creature’s talent situation.

Type: Octo-Wraith

Bloodline Talent: Moonlight

Strength Talent: Top-tier

Necrotic Talent: Pseudo-Mystic 50%

Strangulation Talent: Top-tier

From the talent situation of this Octo-Wraith, its talents were not particularly outstanding. Among emperor-level creatures, it would definitely be considered quite ordinary.

However, for Ye Tian, encountering this Octo-Wraith was definitely lucky.

“A 50% Pseudo-Mystic level necrotic talent, much higher than my own necrotic talent, copy!”

In an instant, Ye Tian copied the necrotic talent of the Octo-Wraith, immediately feeling elated.

Afterward, Ye Tian left the river and, not far away, established a small cave dwelling.

Then, he began to integrate the necrotic talent within the small cave dwelling.

Ten minutes passed, and Ye Tian’s necrotic talent was enhanced to 50% Pseudo-Mystic level.

With this, Ye Tian’s necrotic talent’s effect in absorbing energy became much more powerful than before.

It could even be said that Ye Tian did not need the jade amulet and could survive for a long time in the Realm of Oblivion.

Then, Ye Tian returned to the river, continued to use spatial phasing, and searched for Netherworld Stones.

To Ye Tian’s surprise, he discovered a few more necrotic creatures. Among them, three necrotic creatures possessed top-tier necrotic talents, and another necrotic creature even possessed a 40% Pseudo-Mystic level necrotic talent.

Thus, Ye Tian copied that 40% Pseudo-Mystic level necrotic talent. After copying and integrating it, Ye Tian’s necrotic talent was enhanced to 70% Pseudo-Mystic level.

The higher the level of necrotic talent, the happier Ye Tian naturally became.

Originally, Ye Tian was not very confident about whether he could cultivate the second layer of the Art of Immortality.

Now, as the level of his necrotic talent continued to increase, Ye Tian’s confidence naturally grew.

On the second day, Ye Tian finally discovered a piece of Netherworld Stone.

At a certain place on the riverbed, a basketball-sized stone was embedded in the mud. The stone’s exterior was a dark, eerie metal.

Ye Tian’s divine sense attempted to probe into the metal, but it was blocked by the metal. His treasure-seeking talent also failed to locate the stone.

Based on Ye Tian’s judgment, this metal must be Netherworld Iron, and within Netherworld Iron, there was an eight to nine out of ten chance of finding a Netherworld Stone.

“Let’s take this stone first!”

Ye Tian activated his necrotic talent, and immediately a hand reached out from space, grabbing the Netherworld Iron.

Boom!

Countless necrotic energies surged into Ye Tian.

At this moment, even the power of the jade amulet couldn’t stop the necrotic energy. Due to Ye Tian activating his necrotic talent, his arm was only briefly inserted into the riverbed and promptly retreated into space, thus avoiding any harm.

In space, Ye Tian placed the Netherworld Iron into his portable Xumi space, then carefully examined his right hand.

At this moment, his right hand had been corroded somewhat, but under the combined effect of various healing talents, it quickly recovered.

“What a formidable necrotic talent. Fortunately, my necrotic talent has been enhanced to 70% Pseudo-Mystic level. Otherwise, with my previous top-tier necrotic talent level, I might have been severely injured by now!” Ye Tian had to admit that he had underestimated the concentration and quality of the necrotic energy in the river.

“It seems that to cultivate the second layer of the Art of Immortality, I must enhance my necrotic talent to Mystic level. Otherwise, even with my Chaos Body and the strong physical body of a Child of the Universe, I wouldn’t be able to withstand it!” Ye Tian thought to himself.

This river, placed in the Realm of Oblivion, was just an ordinary river.

Ye Tian had almost thoroughly explored this river, so he planned to go to other areas to investigate other rivers.

This time, his goal was not only to find Netherworld Stones but also to seek other necrotic creatures and copy their necrotic talents.

Whoosh! Ye Tian flew away, continuously searching for rivers.

Half a day later, Ye Tian saw a river far wider and more majestic than the previous ones, and the necrotic energy of this river was also slightly denser than before.

“This river is good; perhaps I can find many Netherworld Stones and necrotic creatures here.”

Thinking this, Ye Tian phased into space and entered the riverbed.

Next, Ye Tian began his investigation.

Sure enough, just after a few minutes, Ye Tian discovered a necrotic creature.

Type: Death Crocodile

Bloodline Talent: Dawn-level

Strength Talent: Top-tier

Defense Talent: Top-tier

Necrotic Talent: Pseudo-Mystic 50%

“Found it!” Ye Tian was quite excited.

This Death Crocodile’s necrotic talent was up to 50% Pseudo-Mystic level. Once he copied and integrated this Death Crocodile’s necrotic talent, his necrotic talent would surely be elevated to Mystic level.

After successfully copying it, Ye Tian left the river and found a place to start integrating the 50% Pseudo-Mystic level necrotic talent.

Half an hour later, Ye Tian’s necrotic talent finally underwent a transformation.

[Necrotic Talent: Mystic Level]

Before entering the Realm of Oblivion, Ye Tian had never expected his necrotic talent to be elevated to Mystic level.

This was definitely a huge surprise.

In the following days, Ye Tian no longer copied any necrotic talents.

His main purpose now was to find Netherworld Stones.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed. Ye Tian had explored three rivers, thoroughly investigating every inch of them, and finally found 13 pieces of Netherworld Iron.

“There should be at least 10 Netherworld Stones inside!” Ye Tian estimated.

So, that day, Ye Tian cut open each piece of Netherworld Iron.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The pieces of Netherworld Iron were forcefully opened by Ye Tian.

After opening the first piece of Netherworld Iron, a gray, square stone appeared.

This stone was not large, only about the size of a thumb.

And Ye Tian recognized it at a glance, this stone was a Netherworld Stone.

The first Netherworld Stone was obtained! Immediately after, Ye Tian opened all the other pieces of Netherworld Iron, and luckily, only one piece of Netherworld Iron did not contain a Netherworld Stone; the others all contained a Netherworld Stone.

Ye Tian now possessed 12 Netherworld Stones, which meant he had completed his mission.

Once he returned, he could enter the high-level Saber Dao Origin Cultivation Realm for refinement.

“I have completed my mission; there is no need to look for Netherworld Stones anymore. It’s time to refine the second layer of the Art of Immortality.”

The difficulty of refining the second layer of the Art of Immortality far exceeded the first layer, thus the time consumed also far exceeded that required for the first layer.

Following Ye Tian’s judgment, he found that refining the second layer of the Art of Immortality on land would probably be difficult to accomplish, as the concentration and quality of necrotic energy were slightly lacking.

Therefore, Ye Tian must enter these rivers for refinement, and the best environment for refinement would be at the riverbed.

It goes without saying that if Ye Tian had not elevated his necrotic talent to Mystic level previously, he estimated that he wouldn’t have been able to cultivate the second layer of the Art of Immortality.

Whoosh! Ye Tian jumped into one of the rivers of the Realm of Oblivion. The moment he entered, countless necrotic energies surged into his body.

Under the assault of so much necrotic energy, the jade amulet protecting Ye Tian’s body couldn’t withstand it anymore and began to show cracks.

Immediately, Ye Tian stored the jade amulet into his portable Xumi Storage Realm, lest it be completely ruined, which would undoubtedly be a waste of a treasure.

Without the protection of the jade amulet, Ye Tian faced the assault of these necrotic energies head-on.

In an instant, the vitality of Ye Tian’s body began to drain.

“Necrotic Talent!”

“Immortality Talent!”

“Life Talent!”

“Healing Talent!”

“Blood Devouring Talent!”

Ye Tian activated all his talents, recovering his flesh that was being eroded by the necrotic energies.

At the same time, Ye Tian also diverted a small part of his focus to control his body, operating the Chaos Body Refinement Art.

Under the operation of the Chaos Body Refinement Art, quite a bit of the necrotic energy was transformed by the Chaos Body and the Chaos Body Refinement Art.

With the assistance of numerous talents and methods, Ye Tian finally managed to withstand the erosion of the necrotic energies.

“Now I can refine the second layer of the Art of Immortality!”

Ye Tian was immensely looking forward to it.
