Your Talent is Mine Chapter 1171: The Wind King Appears!

TL: Etude

“No matter what Imperial Son Fengyang has done, even if he was in the wrong, only the Heavenly Emperor Palace has the right to deal with him. You humans have no qualification to discipline someone from our Heavenly Emperor Palace!” Dao Ancestor War Fire declared coldly.

“And what if we did deal with him? What can you do about it?” Ye Tian retorted without fear.

“Then I will personally take you to the Heavenly Emperor Palace and let the Imperial Monarchs decide your fate!”

Dao Ancestor War Fire struck without delay. With the strength of a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor, he lunged forward to seize Ye Tian.

Though Ye Tian had slain a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor before, that feat happened under the suppression of the Profound Void Ancient Realm's rules, which prevented the full display of power.

Things were entirely different now. A Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor here could unleash their complete might.

Boom!!! A primordial phoenix wrapped in endless flames barreled toward Ye Tian. This represented Dao Ancestor War Fire’s signature Grand Thousand Dao Technique—the Primeval Phoenix Art—replicating a primordial chaos phoenix at Pinnacle Dao Ancestor level. Its fearsome might could burn away even the natural laws.

“Nine-Turn Immortal Gold Body!” “Primeval Desolate Body!”

Ye Tian promptly activated these two Grand Thousand Dao Techniques. Combined with his major accomplishment-stage Forbidden Body, he blocked Dao Ancestor War Fire’s Primeval Phoenix Art directly.

Boom!!! Ye Tian’s figure got pushed back forcefully. The Nine-Turn Immortal Gold Body’s luster dimmed, and the Primeval Desolate Body shattered apart. Still, the major accomplishment-level Forbidden Body absorbed the bulk of the damage, so Ye Tian only suffered slight injuries while enduring the assault through raw power.

“A major accomplishment-level Forbidden Body!!!” Dao Ancestor War Fire’s expression drastically changed.

This was an achievement many Invincible Dao Ancestors failed to reach, yet Ye Tian had accomplished it! On top of that, his Nine-Turn Immortal Gold Body and Primeval Desolate Body—both Grand Thousand Dao Techniques—had advanced to the minor accomplishment stage. Such rapid progress stunned the mind.

How long ago had Ye Tian, the Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, stepped into the Dao Ancestor realm? Even with a defense-focused Dao-level core talent and nonstop assistance from forbidden treasures that boosted comprehension, reaching minor accomplishment in two Grand Thousand Dao Techniques this quickly went against all logic!

Actually, Ye Tian’s phenomenal comprehension arose from ascending to Dao Ancestor as a Supreme True Ancestor, an extraordinary rarity. He had also duplicated countless Dao-level core talents, including many defensive ones, which dramatically sped up his grasp of Grand Thousand Dao Techniques.

Dao Ancestor War Fire, of course, had no way of knowing this.

At this moment.

Dao Ancestor War Fire pulled out a Forbidden Weapon laden with fire’s forbidden rules—the War Fire Saber. Their prior clash revealed that Ye Tian’s power matched a peak Sixth Heaven Dao Ancestor level. Paired with the major accomplishment Forbidden Body, he posed a tough threat even for ordinary Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors to take down.

As a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor, Dao Ancestor War Fire wasn’t top-ranked. Seizing Ye Tian without deploying his Forbidden Weapon was almost impossible.

Whoosh!! Dao Ancestor War Fire charged in to strike fatally.

Ye Tian didn’t conceal his own Forbidden Weapon, brandishing the Heaven-Slaying Spear.

Boom!!! The clash exploded into full battle. It wasn’t long before Dao Ancestor War Fire saw fine cracks emerging on his War Fire Saber. His own power barely shielded it from being smashed by Ye Tian’s Heaven-Slaying Spear in one hit.

“Your spear is a middle-grade Forbidden Weapon!”

Dao Ancestor War Fire at last identified the weapon, struck with utter astonishment.

Even in the Heavenly Emperor Palace, not every Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor owned a Forbidden Weapon—only a handful did, and plenty of Pinnacle Dao Ancestors went without middle-grade versions. Invincible Dao Ancestors often shrank from the massive resources needed to forge one.

But Ye Tian, who had just entered the Dao Ancestor realm, somehow wielded a middle-grade Forbidden Weapon! His son, Ye Xingchen, carried one too! Dao Ancestor War Fire cursed silently. Were humans really that prosperous?

Amid the intense clash, Ye Tian poured out every bit of his power. He activated his Forbidden Domain and unleashed the binding Grand Thousand Dao Technique called the Ten-Directions Space-Fixing Technique. Yet, Dao Ancestor War Fire proved far too formidable to fully contain, suffering only minor hindrance.

“Primeval Slashing Technique!”

With the Heaven-Slaying Spear, Ye Tian cleaved through the emptiness, performing this Grand Thousand Dao Technique. It represented a recent creation of his, allowing an initial integration of Forbidden Weapons into Grand Thousand Dao Techniques for a modest boost in potency.

Whoosh!! A golden beam of light hurtled toward Dao Ancestor War Fire.

Still, the Primeval Slashing Technique merely scarred Dao Ancestor War Fire’s Flame Embers True Armor—a different Grand Thousand Dao Technique—without dealing true damage.

In the course of the fight, Ye Tian remained thoroughly overpowered. Only his Forbidden Body at major accomplishment level preserved his life; otherwise, defeat would have come already.

“My strength is still far behind,” Ye Tian sighed.

He could do little about it. Power wouldn't surge to new heights in a flash; steady cultivation was essential. Enduring a confrontation with a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor without immediate loss in such brief time was already remarkable.

Suddenly.

A voice echoed.

“War Fire, stand down!”

At the sound of the voice, Dao Ancestor War Fire halted his duel with Ye Tian and withdrew.

Then, a middle-aged man materialized, barefooted in Dao robes, topped with a blue-gold crown studded with gold. Hands behind his back, his face bore a profound, inscrutable look, exuding a frigid, piercing aura.

“Greetings, Lord Blue Sky!” Dao Ancestor War Fire bowed deeply.

“Heavenly Emperor Palace’s Dao Ancestor Blue Sky,” Ye Tian frowned.

This figure surpassed a regular Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor. He was a pinnacle Eighth Heaven Dao Ancestor, rivaling the Ten Kings of Blackwind Mountain.

“Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, if you’re willing to join our Heavenly Emperor Palace, we can let this matter go. Otherwise, I won’t bother taking you back for punishment—I’ll kill you here and now,” Dao Ancestor Blue Sky declared icily.

“I’m sorry,” Ye Tian responded flatly, “but I will not join the Heavenly Emperor Palace.”

The onlookers among the Dao Ancestors surrounding them deemed Ye Tian's situation dire. Many pitied him, convinced his demise loomed today.

Some Dao Ancestors even considered that aligning with Heavenly Emperor Palace held merit. It would at least grant him a formidable ally!

“In that case, you shall die!”

Dao Ancestor Blue Sky launched his assault. A blue flash of light erupted instantly, ruthless and inexorable.

No Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor could possibly resist this blow, much less Ye Tian, whose prowess matched only a peak Sixth Heaven Dao Ancestor.

Ye Tian understood he couldn't endure it, but no panic appeared on his face.

Suddenly.

A silhouette emerged before Ye Tian, casually intercepting the strike.

The newcomer donned a black war robe inscribed with forbidden runes. Etched on the robe's chest was a lone character: Wind.

He was none other than the Wind King of Blackwind Mountain.

The Wind King appeared to know Dao Ancestor Blue Sky. Smiling, he said, “Dao Ancestor Blue Sky, it’s been a long time. Why is it that as soon as you show up, you want to kill one of our Blackwind Mountain’s Heavenly Kings?”

Dao Ancestor Blue Sky's brow furrowed. “A Blackwind Mountain Heavenly King? Didn’t Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws himself say he wasn’t your Heavenly King Nine Limits? How is he suddenly one now?”

The Wind King sneered, “Even if Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws isn’t Blackwind Mountain’s Heavenly King Nine Limits, that doesn’t mean he can’t become a Heavenly King of Blackwind Mountain. You failed to recruit one of Blackwind Mountain’s Heavenly Kings and now want to attack instead? Are you perhaps looking for a fight with me? If so, let’s have at it!”

Dao Ancestor Blue Sky's face stiffened. To clash with the Wind King? He was utterly outmatched!
