Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1124: Supreme True Ancestor, the Four Great Forbidden Techniques!

TL: Etude

Ye Tian refined the core of the Heaven-Forbidden Tree at a rapid pace, and before long, he had completely absorbed it.

In that instant, he sensed that the invisible… shackle that had bound him had vanished.

“Could it be…”

Ye Tian speculated, his heart brimming with excitement.

He wanted to test it out, to see if he truly no longer had a shackle, if he could now easily break through to reach the combat power of a Supreme True Ancestor.

Of course, to achieve this breakthrough, he still needed to cultivate a mid-tier Dao technique to the perfected realm.

Previously, the presence of that shackle had made it incredibly difficult for him to cultivate any mid-tier Dao technique to perfection; it was a common issue faced by all living beings.

Otherwise, with the foundations of the Ninth Heaven forces, cultivating a pinnacle Invincible True Ancestor wouldn’t be too difficult.

But even if they did succeed in cultivating a pinnacle Invincible True Ancestor, no amount of resources or effort could help such a being break through the shackle to achieve Supreme True Ancestor status.

Thus, these great powers were often reluctant to pour resources into cultivating pinnacle Invincible True Ancestors.

After all, if a pinnacle Invincible True Ancestor couldn’t break through to become a Supreme True Ancestor, they wouldn’t linger long at the True Ancestor level. Also, the strength of an ordinary Invincible True Ancestor and a top-tier Invincible True Ancestor who ascended to a Dao Ancestor was roughly the same.

So, from a returns standpoint, it wasn’t worth the effort or cost to train pinnacle Invincible True Ancestors.

However, if an Invincible True Ancestor could raise their power to Pinnacle status on their own, all major forces would welcome it enthusiastically.

For example, Blackwind Mountain hadn’t invested heavily in cultivating Ye Tian, but as Ye Tian raised his power to pinnacle Invincible True Ancestor status on his own, Blackwind Mountain naturally embraced it wholeheartedly.

At this moment—

As Ye Tian meditated on the Great Desolate Dao Body, he indeed sensed a change.

Previously, whenever he meditated on the Great Desolate Dao Body, that invisible shackle held him back, making it nearly impossible to break through to the perfected realm.

But now, he felt that the binding force had disappeared.

“There’s hope now! Give me just a bit more time, and I’ll surely be able to cultivate the Great Desolate Dao Body to perfection!” Ye Tian exclaimed with excitement.

Immediately, he announced his retreat into seclusion.

His son, Ye Xingchen, returned to consolidate his True Ancestor realm, while his daughter, Ye Xingyue, who had just mastered the Dark Forbidden Power, prepared to attempt her own breakthrough to the True Ancestor realm.

Xiao Yue and Ye Yu, also having just mastered the Dark Forbidden Power, naturally entered seclusion as well to study it thoroughly.

Thus, everyone entered seclusion for cultivation.

Days passed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of years had gone by.

During this time, a Forbidden Treasure Land had appeared in the Profound Void Ancient Realm, but its value was limited; it yielded only some low- and mid-tier forbidden wondrous objects.

Still, it attracted a significant number of factions. No Invincible True Ancestors perished, though many Ordinary, Elite, and Top-tier True Ancestors did fall, with several dozen Pinnacle True Ancestors among them.

Compared to the losses during the battle over the Forbidden Ancient Well, these casualties were minimal.

Ye Tian didn’t participate; he remained in secluded cultivation.

Then, after several more millennia—

In reality, he had been cultivating within a time-accelerated environment for an even longer span.

On this day—

Ye Tian’s soul quivered, his eyes opened wide, and a look of boundless joy spread across his face.

“I can finally break through!” Ye Tian laughed heartily.

As he spoke, his Great Desolate Dao Body instantly reached the perfected realm.

Boom!!!

In that moment, his aura surged, as though a spring of Origin Essence had formed in the depths of his soul—it was none other than the Supreme Dao Origin.

As the Supreme Dao Origin took shape, countless streams of energy flowed out, nourishing Ye Tian’s soul and body, steadily increasing his power.

Upon stepping into Supreme True Ancestor combat power, his strength hadn’t advanced significantly, as he had only just broken through. His foundation would still require time to consolidate.

However, Ye Tian could clearly sense that cultivating mid-tier Dao techniques had become much easier. He could swiftly bring other mid-tier Dao techniques to the perfected realm, and in time, he would even be able to cultivate them to the limit.

Still—

What Ye Tian needed most at the moment was an Forbidden Origin Technique, one that could quickly boost his power.

“Blackwind Mountain surely has such a technique. I’ll head to Blackwind Mountain!”

Ye Tian cast the Blackwind Domain Technique, descending into the Wind King Small Domain.

Immediately, he took out the Great General Token and contacted the Wind King.

“General Nine Limits, what business do you have with this king?”

“Lord Wind King, I’d like to know if Blackwind Mountain has any forbidden techniques that enhance power using origin force,” Ye Tian inquired.

“What? You’re asking for forbidden techniques? Are you aware that cultivating forbidden techniques can utterly ruin your foundation! Wait… your aura…”

Wind King’s astonishment was unmistakable, as an incarnation of his consciousness appeared before Ye Tian.

“You’ve condensed the Supreme Dao Origin—you’ve become a Supreme True Ancestor?” he asked in surprise. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

“Yes!” Ye Tian confirmed.

“Incredible!” Wind King exclaimed. “I never expected you to achieve what I couldn’t attain myself. Becoming a Supreme True Ancestor is exceedingly difficult—almost impossibly so.

I don’t know how you managed to reach the ranks of a Supreme True Ancestor, but since you have, you’re now eligible to become a Heavenly General of Blackwind Mountain!”

“A Heavenly General?”

It was the first time Ye Tian had heard of the Heavenly General rank within Blackwind Mountain.

Wind King explained, “Heavenly General ranks above Great General, but their status is equivalent to that of a Heavenly King—and in certain respects, even surpasses that of an ordinary Heavenly King.

Heavenly Kings cannot command Heavenly Generals; only the Ten Kings are qualified to oversee Heavenly Generals!”

“Lord Wind King, can a Heavenly General get forbidden techniques?” Ye Tian asked.

“Naturally!” Wind King replied with a smile. “If a Supreme True Ancestor doesn’t cultivate forbidden techniques, wouldn’t that waste their talent? And, all of Blackwind Mountain’s forbidden techniques are open to Heavenly Generals, with no cost required!”

Ye Tian was immediately thrilled upon hearing this.

However, Wind King continued, “Heavenly General Nine Limits, given the critical importance of your position, it’s currently best not to reveal it. Only in the most crucial moment should your rank be disclosed. Thus, for now, we won’t hold an official Heavenly General conferment ceremony. Additionally, do not reveal to anyone that you’ve broken through to Supreme True Ancestor. Also, avoid venturing out in the near future—some individuals with unique secret techniques could easily see through it!”

“Understood!” Ye Tian nodded.

Immediately, Wind King exchanged Ye Tian’s Great General token for a Heavenly General token. Using this token, Ye Tian could access the Blackwind Mountain Forbidden Techniques Library.

This library was exclusive to Heavenly Generals and the Ten Kings; not even Heavenly Kings had permission to enter.

With a flash, Ye Tian used the Heavenly General token to enter Blackwind Mountain’s Forbidden Technique Vault. But upon entering, he felt a pang of disappointment; the collection of forbidden techniques was sparse, to say the least.

There were only a few dozen forbidden techniques, each inscribed on ancient stone steles.

As Ye Tian observed them, he noted that many of these techniques focused on strengthening the physical body, some on enhancing the soul’s power, and others on amplifying True Ancestor strength.

Naturally, there were also techniques designed for temporary outbursts, burning origin force to unleash power. For most, such techniques would leave them crippled after use.

But his Supreme Dao Origin continuously generated origin force, an almost inexhaustible supply, so he didn’t fear the depletion.

Ye Tian wasn’t greedy; he chose only four forbidden techniques. Cultivating too many would detract from his progress in other areas and prove counterproductive.

He selected:

– A physical-strengthening technique: Boundless Body Refining Technique

– A soul-strengthening technique: Soul Shattering Refining Technique

– A True Ancestral Force technique: Myriad Layers Origin Technique

– A temporary explosive power technique: Ninefold Burst Technique

With these four forbidden techniques, Ye Tian completed his selection.

Afterward, Ye Tian left Blackwind Mountain.

Upon returning to the human domain, he began devoting himself to cultivating these four forbidden techniques.

Every moment, he could feel a vast amount of origin force being consumed, followed by an equally vast amount regenerating.

Without the Supreme Dao Origin, even True Ancestors with precious artifacts to restore origin force would be unable to withstand such consumption, depleting their reserves almost instantly and losing all strength.

As time passed, Ye Tian’s power grew rapidly, with his physical strength, soul power, and True Ancestor strength all increasing at an incredible pace.

Moreover, his mid-tier Dao techniques—the Myriad Fiends True Spear, Selfless Void, and Tiangang Extreme Speed—all progressed at an astonishing speed.

Selfless Void, previously at the minor accomplishment realm, soon reached the major accomplishment realm. Meanwhile, the Myriad Fiends True Spear and Tiangang Extreme Speed both advanced toward the perfected realm.

Additionally, Ye Tian’s Forbidden Body absorbed Dark Forbidden Power at a pace far faster than before, refining his Forbidden Body with remarkable speed.

At this rate, he estimated it wouldn’t be long before his Forbidden Body reached fifty percent.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of years passed.
