Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1007: The Ruins of a Fourth Heaven Force Headquarters
TL: Etude
Tuo Long was the first True Monarch of the Starhorn Beast Clan and prided himself as the foremost genius of the transcendent forces. He had always only paid attention to the talents from the other three transcendent forces—specifically, those from the Forbidden Palace and Dao Mountain.
As for the geniuses of other forces, he rarely bothered to notice them.
If it had been a True Monarch renowned for countless years, he might have heard of them. But Ye Tian was just a native of the universe, someone who had never left the cosmos nor ventured into Chaos, with his growth far too short a span.
Therefore, it was natural that Tuo Long had never heard of Ye Tian.
“It seems he’s a personal disciple recently accepted by Dao Ancestor Void Sky,” one of Tuo Long’s guards said.
“Dao Ancestor Void Sky?”
Tuo Long knew this Dao Ancestor. In terms of the current strength classifications, he was a Third Heaven Dao Ancestor, a formidable presence but not considered one of the top-tier Dao Ancestors within the Starhorn Beast Clan.
After all, the Starhorn Beast Clan had six or seven Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestors, along with around ten Third Heaven Dao Ancestors. So, they did not place much importance on a mere Third Heaven Dao Ancestor.
“Let’s go. We’ll seek out this so-called Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws. I want to have a little spar with him,” Tuo Long said casually.
“Your Highness, the ruins of this battlefield are brimming with opportunity. I’ve just sorted through the storage spaces of these fallen True Monarchs and Half-Step True Ancestors, and found numerous Dao Artifacts, rare inheritances, treasures, and resources. It’s clear that this place is filled with unimaginable wealth!” the guard reported, presenting the treasures one by one.
“What? So many treasures?”
Even Tuo Long was stunned.
Although he had never lacked resources, and his collection of treasures was vast, Dao Artifacts were not to be underestimated. Yet, with just a few kills—some True Monarchs and two Half-Step True Ancestors—he had acquired so much treasure. This haul surpassed the entirety of his previous wealth.
At that moment, he realized the immense value of the battlefield ruins. No wonder even the four transcendent forces had made their move.
“What are we waiting for? Let’s start treasure hunting! If we come across that so-called Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws, we can spar with him then,” Tuo Long said.
“Yes!” The two Half-Step True Ancestor guards responded.
…
The four transcendent forces continued to enter the battlefield ruins, reigniting chaos in a place that had briefly been calm.
The True Monarchs of the four transcendent forces had always looked down on those from the top-tier forces. The battlefield ruins, however, were so rich with treasures that nearly every True Monarch carried significant wealth.
Tempted by this, the True Monarchs of the four transcendent forces began to slaughter other True Monarchs mercilessly.
Indeed, the True Monarchs of the four transcendent forces were immensely powerful, far beyond what ordinary top-tier True Monarchs could match. This was especially true for those from the Forbidden Palace, Dao Mountain, and the Starhorn Beast Clan, each of whom possessed battle prowess at the peak of the True Monarch level.
As a result, the True Monarchs from the top-tier forces suffered heavy losses, with many falling to the transcendent forces’ True Monarchs.
Of course, some of the transcendent forces’ True Monarchs were also ambushed and killed, but such occurrences were exceedingly rare.
Only the chaos lifeforms within the transcendent forces exhibited varying levels of strength. Many True Monarchs from the Chaos Lifeform Alliance fell, but the losses among other forces were even greater.
As the four transcendent forces made their appearance, several prominent True Monarchs began to rise in fame.
Tuo Long of the Starhorn Beast Clan, Black Soul and White Spirit of the Forbidden Palace, Long Feng of the Bloodthirst Dragon Clan within the Chaos Lifeform Alliance, and the three prodigies from Dao Mountain—Chen Guang, Chen Xing, and Chen Dong—all became well-known.
These True Monarchs were highly renowned, each possessing the power to slay peak pseudo-Dao Realm True Ancestors.
However, in the eyes of many True Monarchs, no matter how powerful these individuals were, they could not compare to Ye Tian, who had managed to kill an incarnation of a Dao Ancestor.
However, no matter how people boasted about Ye Tian’s achievements, the members of the four transcendent forces refused to believe his battle records. They merely dismissed them as fabricated propaganda spread intentionally by Ye Tian himself.
As a result, the geniuses from the four transcendent forces were eager to compete with Ye Tian and test his strength for themselves…
…
On this day.
A major event took place within the battlefield ruins, shocking the entire quasi-Dao Realm and even drawing the attention of numerous Dao Ancestor incarnations.
In a ruined mountain range within the battlefield, a hundred-meter-long spatial rift appeared midair.
Through the rift, many True Monarchs glimpsed shadows of buildings within.
This seemed to be the headquarters of a sect! Initially, the entry of the first few True Monarchs resulted in their immediate deaths, but this did not draw much attention at first. However, when a top-tier Half-Step True Ancestor barely escaped from the other side of the rift with his life, some of the secrets surrounding this place were revealed.
It turned out that this was the headquarters of at least a Fourth Heaven force, and furthermore, living beings still existed inside.
Those who had entered were attacked and sensed the presence of life. But the enemies inside had control over formations, instantly slaughtering a large number of True Monarchs. Only the top-tier Half-Step True Ancestor had managed to force his way out, barely surviving.
Unfortunately, due to his severe injuries, he was killed by other True Monarchs shortly after reporting what he had discovered.
Still, the news leaked, immediately drawing the attention of everyone in the battlefield ruins.
Large numbers of True Monarchs flocked to this place, not only unafraid of the sect but eager to enter and seek treasures.
…
Ye Tian also received the news, and based on the available information, began speculating about the origins of this sect.
“Could it be the Sunset Sect, a force from the Middle Three Heavens?” Ye Tian guessed.
Based on the division of territories, that mountain range should have once belonged to the Sunset Sect. However, the exact location of the sect had remained unclear to Ye Tian.
Thus, it was merely a conjecture.
“The Sunset Sect was a top-tier Fourth Heaven force and was rumored to have at least 300 Dao Ancestors. However, since its strongest members only possessed the strength of Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestors, it was categorized as a Fourth Heaven force,” Ye Tian thought.
The foundation of such a Fourth Heaven force was immensely powerful. Notably, Dao Ancestor Crimson Dragon had been nothing more than an ordinary elder within the Sunset Sect, which spoke volumes about the sect’s immense strength.
Compared to the sect headquarters of the Sunset Sect, the Crimson Dragon Dao Field was nothing more than a backwater place—not even close to being a treasure trove.
Even obtaining a minor benefit from the Sunset Sect would yield unimaginable rewards.
The only trouble was that the sect was likely extremely dangerous.
“With so many True Monarchs and even Half-Step True Ancestors going there, not to mention the numerous Dao Ancestor incarnations flocking toward it, what do I have to fear?” 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
With that thought in mind, Ye Tian set out for the Sunset Sect.
…
Along the way, he contacted his master’s incarnation, only to be told that his master had no intention of heading to the Sunset Sect. It seemed his master had already encountered some other opportunity and was unwilling to leave it.
Ye Tian didn’t press the matter, but he felt the absence of a powerful backing.
Soon, Ye Tian arrived at the Sunset Mountain Range, where the headquarters ruins of the Sunset Sect were located.
The moment he arrived, several hostile auras locked onto him. These auras carried faint traces of enmity and boiling fighting spirit, as if eager for battle.
