Your Talent is Mine Chapter 1177: Breakthrough in Power, Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor!

TL: Etude

Engaging the Grand Thousand Dao Technique—Heavenly Illusory Divine Steps, Ye Tian plunged into the fray with astonishing speed, his movements like those of a phantom.

Simultaneously, he manifested his great accomplishment, the Forbidden Body, and defensive Dao techniques such as the Nine-Turn Immortal Gold Body and the Primeval Desolate Body. The onslaught of attacks from the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors rained down upon him, yet he remained entirely unfazed.

The Nine-Turn Immortal Gold Body was shattered! The Primeval Desolate Body was also broken! Despite this, Ye Tian exhibited no panic whatsoever. Drawing upon his Forbidden Body, he absorbed the damage directly, continuously mending himself with the Forbidden Origin Power.

When it came to sheer survival, his resilience was virtually unparalleled! In this manner, Ye Tian endured the ceaseless assault from numerous Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors as he propelled himself towards the Forbidden Spiritual Root. With a single, decisive strike from his Primeval Slashing Technique, he managed to sever a substantial branch from the Forbidden Spiritual Root.

The Forbidden Spiritual Root possessed incredible toughness, making it nigh impossible to cleave. However, the Primeval Slashing Technique, a supreme Grand Thousand Dao Technique, was specifically designed for severing such resilient materials. Consequently, Ye Tian succeeded in cutting the Forbidden Spiritual Root with a single blow. In stark contrast, while the other Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors’ attacks boasted greater raw power, they failed to sever the root in one attempt.

Elemental Dao techniques, such as those harnessing fire or ice, were fundamentally ill-suited for the task of cutting the Forbidden Spiritual Root. Upon successfully severing the branch, Ye Tian swiftly secured it and employed the Heavenly Illusory Divine Steps to execute a rapid withdrawal.

“Heavenly King Nine Limits! Your Forbidden Spiritual Root ends here!”

The furious roars of the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors echoed vibrantly through the expanse.

Ye Tian’s body sustained repeated, severe injuries, at times even being completely pierced through. Were it not for his great accomplishment Forbidden Body and the ceaseless restorative capabilities of the Forbidden Origin Power, he would have been annihilated without question.

Even so, enduring such a relentless barrage left him grievously wounded.

Ye Tian did not dare to entertain the thought of claiming any of the remaining Forbidden Spiritual Root branches—doing so would have been an act of outright suicide.

As Ye Tian managed to break free from the surrounding cultivators, the number of Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors in pursuit began to diminish. His exceptional survival prowess rendered him an excessively challenging target. Continuing the chase meant forfeiting the chance to secure the Forbidden Spiritual Root, a sacrifice deemed not worthwhile.

Before long, the pursuit of Ye Tian ceased entirely.

…

Within the desolate confines of the Forbidden Void Realm, amidst an uninhabited void, Ye Tian established a rudimentary concealment array.

Beneath its shelter, Ye Tian commenced the process of healing his grievous injuries.

At this particular juncture, Ye Tian presented a truly battered appearance. One of his arms was entirely absent, his torso was marred by numerous perforations, and he had nearly succumbed to blood loss.

These external afflictions paled in comparison to the internal damage sustained. The destructive force unleashed by countless interwoven rules had ravaged his flesh and bone. Had it not been for the mitigating effects of the great accomplishment Forbidden Body, he would have certainly perished by now.

Under standard circumstances, any other Dao Ancestor suffering such catastrophic injuries would necessitate an recuperative slumber spanning potentially millions of years.

Ye Tian initiated a forbidden technique, drawing upon the potent Forbidden Origin Power to facilitate the mending of his damaged physique.

Gradually, a visible healing process began to manifest across his injuries.

“The healing efficacy of the Forbidden Origin Power is simply astonishing!” Ye Tian declared with evident delight.

It was precisely because of this inexhaustible wellspring of Forbidden Origin Power that he had the courage to charge into the heart of the conflict and seize the Forbidden Spiritual Root.

In summation, this daring endeavor had yielded incredibly substantial rewards.

By accelerating the flow of time, a relatively short period elapsed before Ye Tian was completely restored to his former state.

Subsequently, he located a more secluded position, materialized a palace, reduced its size, and employed a potent concealment array to safeguard the vicinity. He then embarked on a period of intensive, secluded cultivation.

…

Within the confines of the palace.

Ye Tian produced the Forbidden Spiritual Root. A colossal trunk, measuring approximately three hundred meters in length, rested upon the ground, from which droplets of precious Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid slowly oozed.

Ye Tian then retrieved a Forbidden Gourd, commencing the task of gathering the Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid. Before long, the entirety of the liquid had been collected, leaving behind only the desiccated husk of the Forbidden Spiritual Root.

This husk, while diminished, could still be classified as a valuable cultivation resource. If its essence were refined, it could similarly contribute to augmenting one's cultivation, although its inherent value was significantly less than that of the Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid.

Consequently, Ye Tian carefully stored the husk within his personal inner world.

Following this, Ye Tian commenced the cultivation of the Nine Limits Dao Canon, utilizing the potent Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid as his primary resource.

With a resounding boom, the moment a solitary drop of Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid touched his lips, an immense surge of power coursed through Ye Tian’s entire being. Under the rigorous refinement protocol of the Nine Limits Dao Canon, this potent energy was transmuted into newly forged Forbidden Dao Force. This force subsequently worked to temper his physical form and purify his soul, thereby elevating his cultivation level.

The act of refining merely one drop of Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid was equivalent to enduring a thousand years of relentless cultivation.

Furthermore, the entire process of refining a single drop took less than an hour, a cultivation speed that defied all comprehension.

Perhaps even more crucial was the fact that employing the Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid for cultivation effectively bypassed the notorious bottlenecks that frequently brought traditional cultivation methods to a grinding halt.

As days bled into one another, Ye Tian’s cultivation progressed at an astonishing pace. He initiated a tenfold acceleration of time within his surroundings, enabling him to dedicate immense periods to cultivation while only a scant few moments passed in the real world, ensuring no precious time was squandered.

In the blink of an eye, three days had elapsed in the external world. However, within the temporal acceleration formation, Ye Tian had dedicated a staggering 30,000 days to his practice.

By this juncture, the majority of the Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid had been thoroughly refined. His Forbidden Dao Force had magnified in potency by dozens of times, and his combat prowess had shattered the immense barrier separating the Sixth Heaven Dao Ancestor and the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor realms.

He had now unequivocally ascended to the ranks of a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor, and moreover, one possessing formidable strength.

“The remaining Forbidden Spiritual Root Liquid can be preserved for Yue’er, Xingchen, and Xingyue. Besides, even if I were to refine all that remains, it would offer no significant augmentation to my current power,” Ye Tian mused to himself.

The appearance of such a rare Forbidden Treasure as the Forbidden Spiritual Root within the Forbidden Void Realm this time strongly suggested the presence of additional Forbidden Spiritual Roots in this locale.

Ye Tian harbored a resolute determination to procure more of these valuable Forbidden Spiritual Roots. With them, his rate of advancement would become unparalleled, and it would require minimal time for him to ascend to the echelons of the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors. Conversely, without access to such treasures, even his extraordinary innate talent would struggle to yield such rapid progress.

Beyond this primary objective, he harbored another crucial goal: the elimination of Dao Ancestor Flying Dragon.

With his newfound strength, he now possessed an almost ninety percent certainty of defeating Flying Dragon, rendering concerns about the latter's escape obsolete.

“My subsequent two objectives: procure additional Forbidden Spiritual Roots and vanquish Dao Ancestor Flying Dragon!”

Ye Tian emerged from his deep meditation, meticulously storing away the palace structure and deactivating the temporal formation. With a blinding flash, he vanished from his previous location.

…

“Damnation, these injuries are dire!” Dao Ancestor Flying Dragon bellowed, his heavily wounded form dragging itself through the void as he relentlessly altered his trajectory.

He had already deployed a multitude of life-saving artifacts, managing by the slimmest of margins to evade the relentless pursuit of several Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors. Had it not been for the robust foundation he had painstakingly established over countless years, he would have surely met his demise.

Nevertheless, a spark of exhilaration ignited within him.

On this expedition, he had been the very first to discover a peculiar black flower adorned with 108 petals. Upon his thorough examination and appraisal, he confirmed its identity not merely as an ordinary Forbidden Wondrous Object, but as an exceptionally rare Forbidden Spiritual Root. The value of each individual petal was sufficient to dramatically enhance one’s cultivation.

Flying Dragon was acutely aware that his own potential was verging on exhaustion, leaving him with virtually no hope of reaching the esteemed ranks of the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors. However, should he succeed in refining this particular Forbidden Spiritual Root Flower, it would empower his Dao Force to transcend its current limitations and ascend without cease.

If this endeavor proved successful, he would undoubtedly ascend to the ranks of the most formidable Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors, standing far above those considered weaker.
