Your Talent is Mine Chapter 1187: Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle Falls into a Trap and Dies!
Previously on Your Talent is Mine...
“Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle!”
Imperial Monarch Guangling erupted in fury. The image displayed within the Time-Space Imperial Mirror was none other than Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle, the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor whose soul origin memory had been extracted ten thousand years prior.
“Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle happens to possess a Dao-level core talent in the ice attribute. He was once an Imperial Son of the Heavenly Emperor Palace, heavily nurtured by the palace.
Last time, the Heavenly Emperor Palace mistakenly discredited him, crippling his potential. To compensate for this, they assigned him a decent position, granting him command over one hundred thousand troops of the Heavenly Army and overseeing their training at a newly established base.
But who would have thought he would dare slaughter a family under the Heavenly Emperor Palace’s banner!”
Imperial Monarch Guangling muttered coldly.
As for why Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle had massacred the Feng Family, he didn’t know, nor did he care to find out.
He was well aware of the Time-Space Imperial Mirror’s capabilities. This was a top-tier Forbidden Weapon forged by Domain Ancestor Vast Sea using a strongest forbidden supreme treasure. No form of concealment could escape the mirror’s investigation.
Unless no traces were left behind whatsoever, the Time-Space Imperial Mirror would absorb no aura and, naturally, be unable to track the culprit. However, in this case, the mirror had captured traces of the perpetrator’s aura, and the investigation confirmed it to be Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle. This method of investigation was even more reliable than directly extracting soul origin memory.
Thus, this matter was beyond doubt—it had to be the work of Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle!
Imperial Monarch Guangling waved his hand, instantly reducing the Luanfeng Continent to ashes before turning back to the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Upon returning, he summoned the manifestation of the Time-Space Imperial Mirror and presented the investigative results to the gathered Imperial Monarchs.
The Imperial Monarchs were enraged upon seeing the evidence.
…
Heavenly Emperor Palace, Sixth Heavenly Army Training Base
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One after another, the Imperial Monarchs descended. All the Heavenly Army soldiers and reserve forces knelt in unison.
“Greetings, Imperial Monarchs!”
“Greetings, Imperial Monarchs!”
Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle also appeared, hurriedly bowing in respect. “Stone Eagle greets the esteemed Imperial Monarchs!”
However, he quickly sensed something was off. The Imperial Monarchs radiated furious anger, and their auras all locked onto him.
“What’s going on? Could it be because I’ve been slacking off in training the Heavenly Army? But even so, it shouldn’t warrant so many Imperial Monarchs coming to question me!” Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle was utterly perplexed.
At this moment, Imperial Monarch Guangling spoke coldly, “Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle, you massacred the Feng Family under the Heavenly Emperor Palace. Your actions are vile, and the Heavenly Emperor Palace has decreed your execution!”
“What!”
Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle was utterly bewildered. “Esteemed Imperial Monarchs, I swear I did not massacre the Feng Family! Please, extract my soul origin memory—you’ll see that I am innocent!”
Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle hurriedly pleaded.
He believed that extracting his soul origin memory would prove his innocence, allowing him to avoid death.
Although another extraction would damage his soul and leave it flawed, he had already resigned himself to the fact that he could no longer ascend to become a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor. At this point, he didn’t care about such a drawback.
However, Imperial Monarch Guangling sneered. “Stone Eagle, how clever you are. I suspect you possess some rare method to alter your soul’s origin qi. It’s entirely possible that you even refined the Forbidden Void Realm.”
“To tell you the truth, this time, we used the Time-Space Imperial Mirror. You may not fully understand its significance, but once the Time-Space Imperial Mirror is activated, even an Invincible Dao Ancestor cannot conceal their identity.
The Time-Space Imperial Mirror revealed that it was you who personally annihilated the Feng Family. Alright, we have no time to listen to your explanations!”
Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle wanted to explain, but Imperial Monarch Guangling struck directly.
Bang!
Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle’s body exploded instantly. As a peak-level Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor, he had no chance to resist and was directly suppressed and killed by Imperial Monarch Guangling.
After killing Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle, the Imperial Monarchs left one after another.
With the fall of Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle, the matter came to an end. The Heavenly Emperor Palace had also given an explanation to the countless families under his command.
Nonetheless, the Heavenly Emperor Palace harbored absolutely no suspicion towards Ye Tian. The reason for this was the sheer terror of his Copy Talent. Even the formidable Time-Space Imperial Mirror was incapable of discerning Ye Tian’s true identity, merely registering that it was a replicated body of Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle.
…
Swiftly, Ye Tian became aware that Dao Ancestor Stone Eagle had met his end, executed by the decree of the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
He could only express his profound regret regarding this outcome.
In the subsequent period, Ye Tian immersed himself entirely in his cultivation. He dedicated his efforts to comprehending various Dao techniques, relentlessly pushing each Grand Thousand Dao Technique he mastered towards its ultimate realm.
As for achieving the stage of Pinnacle Dao Ancestor, he felt no urgency whatsoever.
He had already attained mastery over the Dark Forbidden Power and the Forbidden Body, in addition to comprehending the Infinite Forbidden Dao. Consequently, ascending to the Pinnacle Dao Ancestor stage presented no significant obstacle for him.
However, he preferred not to hasten his advancement. His intention was to forge an even more robust foundation.
It held true that at the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor level, the greater one’s existing strength, the more immense the leap in power upon breaking through to the Pinnacle Dao Ancestor stage.
To be precise, the disparity between a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor and a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor was not merely a quantitative difference in power but rather a qualitative shift, a true leap between distinct realms.
Upon achieving the Pinnacle Dao Ancestor stage, an individual's Dao Ancestor body would naturally transmute into the Pinnacle Dao Body, spontaneously manifesting comprehension of the Pinnacle Grand Dao. Yet, Ye Tian had already attained comprehension of the Infinite Forbidden Dao, a power that inherently surpassed the Pinnacle Grand Dao.
Thus, if he were to advance to the Pinnacle Dao Ancestor stage, his existing Forbidden Body would experience further enhancement. Simultaneously, his Infinite Forbidden Dao would instantaneously unlock myriad insights, propelling it to an elevated level.
Furthermore, his Dao Ancestor body, his Forbidden Dao Force, and his very soul would undergo significant and profound transformations.
It was precisely for this reason that numerous Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors, despite possessing ample confidence in their capability to reach the Pinnacle Dao Ancestor stage, made the deliberate choice to postpone their breakthrough, aiming to amass even greater reserves of power.
Ye Tian's current combat prowess had indeed reached the zenith of the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor level. However, this assessment was specifically within the context of the Profound Void Archaic Realm. It did not imply that he had attained the absolute pinnacle of the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor stage itself. Opportunities still existed for him to further amplify his strength – so why the rush?
While Ye Tian remained in his profound seclusion, Ye Xingchen, Ye Xingyue, and Ye Yu sequentially embarked on their own attempts to break through to the Dao Ancestor stage. Each of them achieved success, ultimately attaining the level of Fifth Heaven Dao Ancestors.
As a result, the formidable high-end strength of the Human Race experienced a considerable augmentation.
In the ensuing period, additional forbidden treasure lands successively materialized within the vast expanse of the Profound Void Archaic Realm. On several distinct occasions, Ye Tian consciously opted not to partake in the competition, instead allowing the True Ancestors and Dao Ancestors of the Human Race to vie for these valuable resources.
It appeared that the various major factions had instituted certain revised protocols, as the level of bloodshed had demonstrably decreased. Nevertheless, even with these modifications, whenever a forbidden treasure land emerged, regardless of the level of restraint attempted, outright conflict could not be entirely obviated.
On the surface, a consensus had been reached: Dao Ancestors were expressly forbidden from initiating attacks against True Ancestors, unless a True Ancestor actively provoked a Dao Ancestor.
Absent such an agreement, it would have been exceedingly simple for Dao Ancestors to systematically eliminate True Ancestors, leaving them with virtually no opportunity for advancement or growth.
…
In the passage of time, tens of thousands of years elapsed in what seemed like the blink of an eye.
One day, a profound stillness settled upon the Profound Void Archaic Realm. However, within the Dark Forbidden Domain, located not far from the Profound Void Archaic Realm, an unforeseen and remarkable change began to unfold.
