Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1098: A Great Secret, Supreme True Ancestor!

TL: Etude

Upon becoming a top-tier Invincible True Ancestor, it became exceedingly difficult to advance any further.

Take General Bloodfiend as an example: he could slay weaker Second Heaven Dao Ancestors. Such power was terrifying. The moment he stepped into the Dao Ancestor Realm, he would immediately stand among Third Heaven Dao Ancestors.

Even in the Divine Heaven Domain, the Invincible True Ancestor realm was nearly the limit, a threshold almost impossible to surpass.

For example, Ye Tian himself had now neared this limit.

If his cultivation advanced one more step, he would reach the peak of the Grand Dao. His physical body and soul were also nearing their limits. No matter how much he improved, his strength would probably only double.

But even with such a doubling of strength, he would remain at the level of a Invincible True Ancestor.

Of course, Ye Tian still saw room for improvement.

For instance, he could cultivate a Middle Thousand Dao Technique to the perfected realm, or even to the limit, which would certainly cause his power to grow significantly.

Additionally, he had yet to comprehend even the basics of the Pinnacle Saber Dao. If he could do that, or if he could master even half of it, his strength would soar.

“If I advance in all areas, I wonder if I could break past the limit of the Invincible True Ancestor. If I did, what would that level be called?” Ye Tian felt curious.

At that moment, Ouyang Jiu’er also finished her cultivation. Her cultivation had reached the late stage of the Grand Dao, and in terms of aura, she was likely not weaker than a Pinnacle True Ancestor, perhaps even close to an Invincible True Ancestor.

Naturally, Ye Tian still felt that Ouyang Jiu’er was no ordinary person. Perhaps she had already achieved the battle power of an Invincible True Ancestor.

“Let’s go!” Ye Tian called to Ouyang Jiu’er.

With that, Ye Tian took Ouyang Jiu’er out of the Wind King Small Domain and returned to the Human Race.

At that moment, Ouyang Jiu’er seemed somewhat reluctant to leave. She still wished to cultivate for a while longer in the Nine Nether Forbidden Pool. If she could do so, her cultivation might even reach the peak of the Grand Dao Realm.

“Jiu’er, do you know if there’s a level of power above Invincible True Ancestor?” Ye Tian asked curiously.

He figured that if such a level existed, Ouyang Jiu’er, who had once been a Half-Step Domain Ancestor, would surely know about it—certainly more than General Bloodfiend and others.

After all, General Bloodfiend was merely an Invincible True Ancestor and thus knew very little.

“Above the Invincible True Ancestor?” Ouyang Jiu’er fell silent for a moment, then asked, “Why are you asking about this? Have you broken through the limit and become something beyond Invincible?”

“No, I’m just asking out of curiosity.” Ye Tian replied.

“It does exist.” Ouyang Jiu’er explained, “However, reaching it is immensely difficult. The ultimate limit for countless peerless geniuses is to become an Invincible True Ancestor. In the Divine Heaven Domain, an Invincible True Ancestor is not even considered a recognized standard. Yet, the level beyond it… that standard is acknowledged by all Dao Ancestors. However, few know of it, as it takes countless years for even a single genius of that caliber to appear in the entire Divine Heaven Domain.

The level above a Invincible True Ancestor: it is known as Supreme True Ancestor!”

Supreme True Ancestor! This was the first time Ye Tian had heard of this standard, and the idea of striving for it struck him powerfully.

“Is there any advantage to breaking through to the Supreme True Ancestor realm?” Ye Tian asked again.

“This is a great secret. Why should I tell you?” Ouyang Jiu’er teased.

“This…!”

Ye Tian hesitated, but as he pondered, Ouyang Jiu’er added, “Alright, I’ll tell you for free. But, in the future, if I need your help, you must agree to help me!”

“Agreed!” Ye Tian accepted.

Ouyang Jiu’er explained, “A Supreme True Ancestor isn’t just about powerful battle strength. More importantly, a Supreme True Ancestor’s origin will fully condense into a Supreme Dao Origin, continuously generating origin force.

In other words, a Supreme True Ancestor never lacks origin force. Even if their origin is exhausted, it quickly replenishes.

However, for Pinnacle True Ancestors and Invincible True Ancestors, once their origin is depleted, they’re essentially crippled.

That’s why True Ancestors generally avoid letting their origin sustain injuries.

Many True Ancestors and even Dao Ancestors, once their origin is damaged, take eons to recover.

For example, when crossing the Dark Forbidden Domain with Domain Realm Fragments, many Dao Ancestors and True Ancestors suffered severe origin injuries, some nearly to the point of origin collapse, forcing them into endless slumber to this day.

But a Supreme True Ancestor doesn’t have to worry about this. No injury can truly harm them.”

“And that’s not the key point,” she continued. “The key is that a Supreme True Ancestor can actually use their origin to strengthen themselves. For example, some forbidden techniques draw on the origin to enhance power. But others don’t dare to cultivate them; cultivating these techniques would be suicidal. Yet, a Supreme True Ancestor can! If their physical body reaches the limit, they can break through that limit using these forbidden techniques, refining and strengthening True Ancestral Force further!”

“Additionally, the origin force can speed up the cultivation of Dao Techniques, making it much easier to push a Middle Thousand Dao Technique to the limit.”

“Thus, when an Invincible True Ancestor advances to a Supreme True Ancestor, there may not be an immediate leap in power, but over time, their strength becomes increasingly overwhelming, able to crush an Invincible True Ancestor with ease.”

“There was once a Supreme True Ancestor who fought a Third Heaven Dao Ancestor—and slew them. Imagine how terrifying the power of a Supreme True Ancestor is!”

“From what I know of these secrets, the lowest future achievement of a Supreme True Ancestor is typically an Invincible True Ancestor of the Ninth Heaven. Most can advance to the Half-Step Domain Ancestor level, and a few even cross into the Domain Ancestor Realm!”

After listening to Ouyang Jiu’er’s account, Ye Tian truly grasped the terrifying nature of a Supreme True Ancestor.

Naturally, he became even more eager to enter the ranks of the Supreme True Ancestors.

“So, from what you’re saying, reaching the Supreme True Ancestor depends on whether one has condensed the Supreme Dao Origin?” Ye Tian asked.

“Exactly… that’s right!” Ouyang Jiu’er nodded. “Condensing the Supreme Dao Origin is the hallmark of the Supreme True Ancestor. That’s why this standard is universally recognized, unlike the five other standards, which True Ancestors set for themselves and which aren’t widely accepted.”

At this point, Ye Tian roughly understood the situation.

Without Ouyang Jiu’er’s explanation, he would have known nothing.

However, he didn’t have the forbidden techniques for cultivating origin force. Even if he truly became a Supreme True Ancestor in the future, he wondered where he could find such techniques.

“Blackwind Mountain might have forbidden techniques like this.” Ye Tian speculated.

But without reaching the Supreme True Ancestor Realm, Blackwind Mountain wouldn’t reveal these forbidden techniques to the Generals. Otherwise, forced cultivation would cripple them entirely.

In the days that followed, Ye Tian’s goals became clear. Aside from his cultivation, he focused on developing his forces—the Nine Limits Legion.

With the abundance of Realm Stones, a large number of top-tier talents emerged, each possessing Super-God level comprehension talent.

At least in Ye Tian’s eyes, the Super-God level comprehension talent was remarkable. Using Realm Stones to enhance comprehension talent was the most cost-effective approach. For those with excellent performance, Ye Tian also improved their other talents.

With no lack of talent or resources, coupled with Ye Tian’s guidance, these talents broke through to the True Ancestor Realm, each advancing directly to Elite True Ancestor upon their breakthrough.

Gradually, the number of True Ancestors under Ye Tian’s command reached triple digits, striving toward four digits.

Ye Tian’s wife, Xiao Yue, and his sister, Ye Yu, also broke through to the True Ancestor Realm. Currently, their combat power was at the Elite True Ancestor level, still a distance from Pinnacle True Ancestor, but Ye Tian believed they would eventually reach that level.

One day—

While studying his notes on Saber Dao, Ye Tian experienced a sudden enlightenment.

A faint aura of the Pinnacle Saber Dao emanated! At that moment, he realized something.

“Finally, I did it! I never thought comprehending even a sliver of the Pinnacle Saber Dao would be so difficult. Luckily, I had the Saber Dao notes for assistance; otherwise, I don’t know when I’d have understood even this tiny trace.” Ye Tian murmured to himself.

However, merely comprehending a sliver of the Pinnacle Saber Dao added only a small boost to his power.

Given Ye Tian’s already immense strength, a mere trace of the Pinnacle Saber Dao wasn’t going to make much difference. But it marked a beginning; as he continued his insights, it would greatly enhance his combat power.

In the days that followed, Ye Tian delved deeper into the Pinnacle Saber Dao, his progress becoming more pronounced.

At the same time, his Forbidden Body was gradually approaching the three-tenths realm.

Everything was moving in a positive direction!
