Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1044: Infiltrating the Life Green Clan

TL: Etude

“Innate Reincarnation!”

Ye Tian activated this Dao-level core talent, and a Gate of Reincarnation appeared before him.

He stepped into the gate, seizing a strand of the Life Green Clan’s aura. His body began to transform rapidly, shifting from human form into the form of a Life Green Clan member. His aura also diminished quickly, and before long, his body shrank to the size of an infant.

Yet, even as a mere infant, his aura matched that of an ordinary Divine General.

Soon, the infant form Ye Tian temporarily transformed into began to grow rapidly—first becoming a child, then a youth—while his aura steadily strengthened. However, it still fell far short of the Destiny Realm. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Within the Life Green Clan, anyone below the soldier-tier was divided into ordinary members and elite members. Elite members corresponded to the Destiny Realm, while ordinary members were at the level of a Divine General.

The tribe didn’t have strict divisions beyond these two categories, as members of the Life Green Clan grew quickly. Reaching the soldier-tier wasn’t particularly difficult; with a period of dedicated cultivation, most members could achieve it without much effort.

However, advancing beyond the soldier-tier to the guard-tier was far more difficult. Only a handful of Life Green Clan members ever reached this rank.

Though many members lived within the tribe’s tree cities, smaller villages scattered across the land also housed tribespeople. These villages were weak, with many lacking even a single soldier-tier warrior.

Such a village was the perfect place for Ye Tian to begin his development. The villages were under minimal surveillance, making them safer compared to the heavily monitored tree cities. Even if Ye Tian managed to transform into a Life Green Clan member, the intense scrutiny of the tree cities could expose any traces of his disguise.

Thus, Ye Tian chose a small, weak village to infiltrate, slipping in at an opportune moment.

As the years passed, Ye Tian’s transformation into a Life Green Clan member became complete.

Five Years Later

Ye Tian had grown into an elite member of the Life Green Clan. With such strength, he was already considered one of the most powerful figures in the village. Adding to this, Ye Tian developed several combat techniques and combined them with his honed battle instincts. His power was enough to contend with soldier-tier warriors.

Seizing an opportunity, Ye Tian represented his village’s elites and entered one of the tribe’s tree cities—Bayin City!

Bayin City was far beyond anything the village could compare to. It housed a Patriarch, ten Great Saints, and over a hundred Saints. As for guards, they were too numerous to count.

The population of Bayin City surpassed ten billion, and it dominated vast regions as an absolute power.

Each year, elite members from various villages joined Bayin City. Ye Tian’s goal was to become one of them.

Although Ye Tian could continue cultivating on his own, doing so would arouse suspicion about the source of his strength. By advancing step by step in a manner aligned with the tribe’s practices, he ensured that the Life Green Clan’s higher-ups wouldn’t suspect him.

After demonstrating a portion of his strength, battle prowess, and talent, Ye Tian successfully joined Bayin City. He then enrolled in the city’s elite military academy. Graduating from this academy would grant him the status of an official soldier, and those with exceptional achievements could even advance to the guard-tier, gaining the authority to form their own squads.

Upon entering Bayin City, Ye Tian began leveraging his outstanding talent to grow at an astonishing rate, outpacing even the city’s top prodigies. His progress soon caught the attention of several Saints.

The name Ye Tian became well-known throughout Bayin City as word of his talent spread.

Under the guise as a genius, Ye Tian could continue advancing without raising suspicion. Using this cover, he pushed his abilities to the limit.

However, the cultivation path of the Life Green Clan was different from his own, forcing Ye Tian to figure everything out on his own. This made it difficult for him to advance quickly to the guard-tier.

One Hundred Years Later

Despite the challenges, Ye Tian eventually reached the guard-tier, though his foundation wasn’t as solid as it could have been.

Yet, Ye Tian didn’t mind. This body was merely a temporary vessel, and when he deactivated Innate Reincarnation, all the power he had accumulated would vanish into nothingness.

Thus, he saw no need to painstakingly temper his foundation.

At the guard-tier, the Life Green Clan’s strength varied significantly. Top-tier guards could easily annihilate groups of ordinary members within the same rank.

Unlike external cultivators, Life Green Clan members refined their bodies and bloodlines after reaching the guard-tier by absorbing life energy. Their strength gradually increased, and when their physical limits were reached, they would display signs of ancestral reversion. If the process succeeded, they would ascend to become Sacred Ancestors. However, this reversion required a long and painstaking process.

Accelerating the process wasn’t impossible. One could either cultivate life techniques that resonated with their own body or obtain high-energy life crystals.

Of course, Harmony treasures were also effective accelerators, making them highly sought after. However, Ye Tian had no intention of wasting such treasures. Instead, he created a life technique and collected life crystals to accelerate his progress.

To develop a life technique perfectly suited to himself, Ye Tian paid a steep price—consuming a Heavenly Soul Pill. Only then did he successfully create a top-tier life technique with perfect compatibility.

Ye Tian then undertook various missions and ventured into dangerous lands in search of life crystals. Occasionally, he used time-acceleration methods to enhance his cultivation.

With this approach, Ye Tian’s strength advanced rapidly, pushing further along the guard-tier.

…

Five Hundred Years Later

One day, after centuries of effort, Ye Tian reached the top of the guard-tier. In terms of combat strength, he was only slightly inferior to a Sacred Ancestor.

However, once he attained this level, Ye Tian noticed that his progress had stagnated. He could no longer advance further.

Ye Tian knew this was a limitation of Innate Reincarnation—the realm and strength of his original body capped how far his reincarnated form could grow. This temporary body could not surpass the original.

“I must find a way to enter the Life Divine Mountain!” Ye Tian thought to himself.

With his current strength, his genius reputation, and near-invincible combat ability among guards, he had earned a high status in Bayin City.

However, due to his shallow foundation, he couldn’t penetrate the city’s highest ranks, although he was acquainted with several high-ranking figures.

Through careful inquiries, Ye Tian eventually uncovered a vital piece of information about the Life Divine Mountain.

“So, the Life Divine Mountain is the origin of the Life Green Clan, containing their most profound inheritance!”

This revelation shocked Ye Tian.

Ordinary members and even most guards knew nothing of this secret. If not for his high status, he would never have learned it.

Ye Tian also discovered two ways to gain entry into the Life Divine Mountain.

The first method was to become a Sacred Ancestor and undergo a series of trials to earn a permanent place on the mountain. Or reach the Patriarch level, at which point no one would dare stop him from entering.

However, Ye Tian dismissed these options as unrealistic.

The second method was more viable: the Life Divine Mountain Inheritance Competition, held once every thousand years. Each Tree City was granted one slot, and whoever secured this slot would be allowed to enter the mountain and receive its inheritance.

At the moment, three hundred years remained before the next competition would take place.
