Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1127: The Forbidden Mountain Range

TL: Etude

“No need to be polite! To me, this stele fragment isn’t nearly as precious as the Heaven-Forbidden Tree Heart!” Ouyang Jiu’er spoke earnestly.

After all, she had already comprehended this fragment of the Forbidden Stele in her previous life. Even though she had reincarnated, the insights from the Forbidden Dao it held remained etched in her mind.

Because of this, she could slowly comprehend it over time without needing the physical stele fragment.

The Heaven-Forbidden Tree Heart, however, was different. Without it, she could not break through to the Supreme True Ancestor realm; not even her status as a Half-Step Domain Ancestor reincarnate would suffice.

Thus, Ye Tian’s help had been invaluable to her.

Ouyang Jiu’er collected the remaining treasures and opened the rest of the palace’s treasure vaults, retrieving the resources stored within.

These resources and treasures had been prepared for her, so Ye Tian naturally did not claim them.

Before leaving, Ouyang Jiu’er granted Ye Tian partial control over this fragment of a world. In the future, if Ye Tian needed the special blood from this place, he could come here to collect it.

After all, the creatures on this world fragment posed no threat to him, so he could hunt them here whenever he wished.

…

Back among the human race, Ye Tian began studying the fragment of the Forbidden Stele.

In the Forbidden Space, Ye Tian entered seclusion, opening a specially designated area where he could build his own retreat.

Placing the fragment of the Forbidden Stele before him, he focused entirely on comprehending the Forbidden Dao it held.

This was Ye Tian’s first encounter with the Forbidden Dao, and as he began his study, he felt its immense power. Even a single wisp of the Forbidden Dao’s aura surpassed the mightiest Grand Dao by far.

They were not on the same level at all. “No wonder Ouyang Jiu’er told me to give up the Pinnacle Dao. Most people comprehend it for two reasons: to increase their combat power or to forcefully break into the Dao Ancestor realm.”

“But I can reach the Dao Ancestor realm easily in the future, while the Forbidden Dao’s power far surpasses the Pinnacle Dao.” Ye Tian murmured to himself.

From every angle, he knew he ought to pursue the Forbidden Dao instead of wasting time on the Pinnacle Dao.

Moreover, there were countless paths within the Pinnacle Dao, and his chosen path was the Infinite Dao. If he sought to comprehend each path one by one, it would take him billions of years to master the Supreme Infinite Dao.

The Forbidden Dao was different. Although it too had various types, it functioned as an integrated whole, capable of connecting seamlessly within itself.

It was only due to the Forbidden Dao’s difficulty that people typically separated its study into distinct paths.

For most people, each path represented a forbidden rune, a path uniquely belonging to them.

Ye Tian could start by comprehending individual paths of the Forbidden Dao. Then, when the time was right, he could pursue a unified understanding of it, merging it with the Infinite Dao and transforming it into his own Infinite Forbidden Dao.

In the days that followed, Ye Tian studied each forbidden character. What had initially been confusion gradually turned into a faint understanding.

He also discovered that comprehending the Forbidden Dao greatly aided his mastery of the Dark Forbidden Power.

Previously, though he wielded the Dark Forbidden Power, he had not delved deeply into it and could only use it superficially.

The Dark Forbidden Power was a whole new kind of origin force, containing much that was worth exploring and analyzing.

Unfortunately, people’s understanding of the Dark Forbidden Power was limited. Even the strongest Dao Ancestors had only managed to gain basic control over it. For others, even accessing it was an extravagant hope, and a systematic cultivation method for the Dark Forbidden Power did not exist.

While the Forbidden Dao provided only minimal assistance to Ye Tian in the short term, its impact on his future was profound.

Moreover, once he fully comprehended the Infinite Forbidden Dao, he would experience an explosive surge in power.

Time passed, and in the Profound Void Ancient Realm, nearly every passing year brought new changes.

New forces constantly emerged, while older forces faded.

With the help of the Forbidden Space, the Nine Limits Legion experienced rapid growth, and the strength of the human race progressed swiftly.

Then, one day…

A major event occurred: a Forbidden Treasure Land appeared within the War God True Nation. And this was no ordinary Forbidden Treasure Land—it might not be as rare as the Forbidden Ancient Well, but it was close.

The key was that this Forbidden Treasure Land was a mountain range. Within it, lifeforms had been born with traces of forbidden bloodline. These creatures, while not true forbidden beings, carried forbidden blood, which made them incredibly valuable.

Whether used as mounts, research subjects, or ingredients for alchemy, their worth was immense.

Additionally, some factions had found ways to transfer traces of forbidden bloodline to powerful warriors, allowing them to retain a sliver of the forbidden bloodline.

This could give these warriors a greater chance of advancing to the Dao Ancestor level.

Thus, the value of this Forbidden Mountain Range was incalculable!

In the chaos, within the Great Divine Hall…

A group of Dao Ancestors, led by Dao Ancestor Void Sky, convened to discuss the situation of the Forbidden Mountain Range.

“The news is bound to leak; soon enough, the True Ancestors from Upper and Middle Three Heavens forces will likely invade the War God True Nation. The War God True Nation won’t be able to withstand them, and even all the True Nations under our Great Divine Hall will probably be powerless to resist,” a Dao Ancestor commented.

“Dao Ancestor Void Sky, do you have any solutions? The War God True Nation is my foundation!” said Dao Ancestor Ling Zhan, the master of the War God Tower.

“Dao Ancestor Ling Zhan, I reside within Chaos and cannot enter the Profound Void Ancient Realm. Besides, that realm already holds many Dao Ancestors. Any Dao Ancestor from the Sixth or Seventh Heaven could easily defeat me!” replied Dao Ancestor Void Sky with a note of helplessness.

Despite all the time that had passed, his strength, though greatly increased since his initial advancement to Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestor, and with the opportunities provided by the Profound Void Ancient Realm, had elevated him to a top-tier Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestor. Yet he was still far from matching a Sixth or Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor, let alone an Eighth Heaven Pinnacle Dao Ancestor.

“What about the True Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws from your Void Sky lineage? He’s the foremost True Ancestor in the Profound Void Ancient Realm; surely he can hold off the True Ancestors of those other forces?” Dao Ancestor Ling Zhan asked quickly.

“My disciple is but one person—how could he withstand so many Invincible True Ancestors? And if Dao Ancestors forcibly descend, he won’t be able to hold them off!” Dao Ancestor Void Sky advised. “My suggestion is for the True Ancestors of the War God True Nation to withdraw. Their aim is the Forbidden Mountain Range. Even if the War God True Nation is destroyed, as long as the people survive, the losses will be minimized.” Dao Ancestor Void Sky proposed.

“Dao Ancestor Void Sky, if we withdraw now, how many can we save? Wouldn’t it spell the end for countless citizens of the War God True Nation?” Dao Ancestor Ling Zhan said, frowning.

Dao Ancestor Void Sky pondered for a moment and replied, “Then let’s do this: first, evacuate as many people as we can. Meanwhile, I’ll seek out my disciple to see if he can protect Void Sky True Nation. Also, our True Ancestors should enter the Forbidden Mountain Range and take whatever treasures they can. The more Forbidden Treasures we secure, the stronger we’ll be!”

“That seems like our only option,” Dao Ancestor Ling Zhan nodded.

Immediately, the War God True Nation mobilized, with countless citizens beginning to flee.

Simultaneously, the news of the Forbidden Mountain Range’s emergence within the War God True Nation spread.

During this time, many True Ancestors in the War God True Nation were frantically searching for treasures within the Forbidden Mountain Range. Upon finding a single treasure, they immediately retreated, refraining from lingering or indulging in greed.

In the Void Sky True Nation.

Ye Tian, who had been in seclusion, learned of the War God True Nation’s situation and emerged from his retreat.

At that moment, Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s incarnation descended.

“Master!” Ye Tian greeted respectfully.

Dao Ancestor Void Sky, unable to discern Ye Tian’s current strength, still assumed him to be an Invincible True Ancestor.

“My disciple, I hope you can aid the War God True Nation this time; it would help both our Void Sky lineage and the Great Divine Hall.”

“Master wants me to fend off those forces?” Ye Tian frowned. “I don’t have the strength to resist those forces!”

“No, I only hope you can hinder them somewhat and protect the War God True Nation. The War God True Nation is one of the top True Nations under the Great Divine Hall, providing it with countless talents each year. If it’s destroyed, the Hall’s loss will be immense! With so many powerhouses fighting over the Forbidden Mountain Range, the War God True Nation will likely be devastated. If possible, can you seal off the Forbidden Mountain Range first?” Dao Ancestor Void Sky asked.

“That would be difficult. Those forces won’t listen to my orders, and a Dao Ancestor could descend at any time. At best, I can only promise to buy some time,” Ye Tian replied after some thought.

Dao Ancestor Void Sky had no further comments after hearing this from Ye Tian.

Then, he urged Ye Tian to be cautious and departed from the Profound Void Ancient Realm.

As Ye Tian watched him leave, he couldn’t help but sigh. “Master is completely entangled with the Great Divine Hall. How could he possibly protect each of their countless forces in the future?”

Nonetheless, since he had agreed, he would do his utmost to protect the War God True Nation.

At the very least, he could delay the invasion long enough for most of the kingdom’s people to escape.
