Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1130: A Treasure Appears!

TL: Etude

At the Heavenly Sea Sect.

Several Pinnacle Dao Ancestors awakened and were currently discussing the issue of the Forbidden Dao Stone Vein in the Forbidden Mountain Range.

“The Forbidden Dao Stone Vein holds tremendous value. Compared to unknown Forbidden Supreme Treasures, this is a tangible benefit! A common Forbidden Supreme Treasure at most is worth around 100,000 Forbidden Dao Stones.”

“Should we consider forcefully taking control of that Forbidden Dao Stone Vein?”

“The cost for us to take action is too high; we shouldn’t act unless absolutely necessary.”

“Besides, we still don’t know the yield of the Forbidden Dao Stone Vein. If it holds only about 100,000 Forbidden Dao Stones, it wouldn’t be worth our effort. At the very least, the vein must yield over a million Forbidden Dao Stones before it would be worthwhile for us Pinnacle Dao Ancestors to intervene!”

“A million in yield is unlikely. After all, the Forbidden Realm hasn’t fully formed yet; it’s only showing preliminary signs. In such conditions, how could a Forbidden Treasure Land produce a million Forbidden Dao Stones?”

“If the yield is limited, let those Seventh and Eighth Heaven Dao Ancestors handle it. They lack Forbidden Dao Stones and would likely find it hard to resist.”

Not only were the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors of Heavenly Sea Sect in discussion, but those from other factions also engaged in similar conversations. Without sufficient benefits, these Pinnacle Dao Ancestors had no intention of acting.

After all, if a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor intervened, they would face restrictions from the rules of the Profound Void Ancient Realm, significantly weakening their power and risking potential downfall.

Only a substantial fortune would compel them to act.

For instance, in the case of the last emergence of a Forbidden Supreme Treasure, they were tempted but ultimately refrained from making a move.

This time was no different.

In the heart of the Forbidden Mountain Range.

As the Forbidden Dao Stone Vein was discovered, a fierce battle broke out, with numerous True Ancestors fighting to claim the Forbidden Dao Stones.

For them, obtaining even a single Forbidden Dao Stone was highly profitable.

Unfortunately, the Forbidden Dao Stones were difficult to mine. The Forbidden Dao Stone Vein was exceptionally solid, almost fused into a whole, much like a Dao Artifact. A True Ancestor with insufficient strength might need a considerable amount of time just to extract one Forbidden Dao Stone.

Of course, some Forbidden Dao Stones were easier to mine, but such stones were exceedingly rare.

Some True Ancestors who successfully unearthed a Forbidden Dao Stone quickly found themselves targeted by others, and so the cycle of battle continued.

Before long, True Ancestors from various major forces arrived at the scene. They didn’t start fighting immediately but instead assessed the yield of the Forbidden Dao Stone Vein, as instructed by those in power.

Each faction had its own methods for estimating the yield, and so one by one, they began to investigate.

Before long, they had the results.

“Approximately 500,000 Forbidden Dao Stones!”

The forces gasped in amazement.

This was no small vein. With so many Forbidden Dao Stones, the value was enormous, enough to arouse the greed of the Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors.

If one force gained control of this Forbidden Dao Stone Vein, it would allow them to rapidly expand their influence.

Moreover, for True Ancestors, Forbidden Dao Stones held another astounding effect: they could refine a True Ancestor’s power, using the stimulating energy of the Forbidden Dao Stones to enhance and purify their strength rapidly.

One Forbidden Dao Stone could sustain a True Ancestor for countless years of cultivation. Although it was wasteful to use Forbidden Dao Stones for True Ancestors, few would resist such a quick means to increase their strength.

With a yield of 500,000 Forbidden Dao Stones, this vein was an impressive find. This news reached the Dao Ancestors behind each faction, and one by one, they began to stir.

In the chaos, within the Great Divine Hall—

Dao Ancestor Void Sky had also received the news about the Forbidden Dao Stones and yearned for them.

Forbidden Dao Stones were not only a currency for Pinnacle Dao Ancestors, but they were also a critical strategic resource for Dao Ancestors, Half-Step Domain Ancestors, and Domain Ancestors. To a Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestor like him, they held considerable value.

With enough Forbidden Dao Stones, he could quickly push his cultivation to the peak of a Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestor, saving the time required for accumulation.

Moreover, his Dao Ancestor power lacked purity, which was a common shortfall among the Dao Ancestors of their realm. Although Dao Ancestor Dao Mountain had refined the Dao Ancestor techniques he passed down, they still fell short of the Divine Heaven Domain.

Despite their ongoing improvements, the flaws remained significant.

With enough Forbidden Dao Stones, they could continuously refine their Dao Ancestor power, stabilizing their foundation and growing even stronger.

“Only… My strength as a Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestor is far too weak. If I forcibly descend into the Profound Void Ancient Realm, I wouldn’t be able to fully exert my power!” Dao Ancestor Void Sky sighed.

Suddenly, he thought of his disciple, Ye Tian, but quickly shook his head.

He felt he had no right to ask his disciple to risk obtaining Forbidden Dao Stones for him, especially since Ye Tian also needed them. Why should he hand them over?

“Send out a decree: instruct everyone to seize the Forbidden Dao Stones at any cost. Whoever offers them up will be escorted out of the Profound Void Ancient Realm, and we will spare no effort to raise his cultivation to the peak of the Grand Dao Realm, even bestowing upon him a Harmony Dao Treasure to help him achieve Dao Ancestor status!” Dao Ancestor Void Sky issued the command.

He believed that the True Ancestors of the major true nations would certainly be greedy. Even if countless True Ancestors fell, it wouldn’t matter, as long as they could leave with a few Forbidden Dao Stones.

At once, countless True Ancestors throughout the Profound Void Ancient Realm surged toward the Forbidden Mountain Range, all with one purpose… the Forbidden Dao Stones.

With so many True Ancestors likely to clash, it was clear that the True Nation of War could face complete destruction in an instant.

Ye Tian had also arrived at the Forbidden Dao Stone site, but he held back, seeing no need to act immediately. Killing a few True Ancestors who had obtained Forbidden Dao Stones would yield only a few stones and make him a target for others.

Even though he was unrivaled, drawing the attention of others wouldn’t benefit him.

So, he remained hidden, silently observing.

Half an hour passed, and suddenly, above the Forbidden Dao Stone Vein, a figure emerged, tearing through the space, accompanied by the sound of binding chains of law.

“Begone!”

This chilling voice echoed across the land, sending many True Ancestors flying with blasts of fierce wind.

This display revealed the terrifying power of the newcomer.

“Dao Ancestor!”

The many True Ancestors grew fearful and wary.

Some recognized him—it was a formidable Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor, Dao Ancestor Ancient Wind! He hailed from the Eighth Heaven force known as Hurricane Mountain, a name often compared to Blackwind Mountain, though in the eyes of smaller forces, Blackwind Mountain was not as powerful; it was Hurricane Mountain that held true strength.

Of course, this opinion came from ignorance of Blackwind Mountain’s strength, yet it didn’t deny the might of Hurricane Mountain.

Dao Ancestor Ancient Wind, with his Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor strength, could easily unleash the power of a top-tier Third Heaven Dao Ancestor, wiping out True Ancestors with ease, so none dared to approach him.

Suddenly, Dao Ancestor Ancient Wind unleashed a palm strike, causing the ground to crack and blast the Forbidden Dao Stone Vein.

Though exceptionally solid, the vein shattered under his might, dislodging a fragment that contained nearly ten thousand Forbidden Dao Stones.

With a flick of his sleeve, he prepared to wield a Dao technique similar to “World in the Sleeve” to collect the fragment, planning to slowly mine the stones later.

However, as he tried to retrieve the fragment, someone else intervened.

Another Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor appeared, launching a fierce strike against the fragment, sending it hurtling at high speed—straight toward Ye Tian.

Seeing the fragment, which held nearly ten thousand Forbidden Dao Stones, Ye Tian naturally wasn’t about to let it go.

At once, he activated his Blackwind Domain Technique, enshrouding the fragment and drawing it into his internal universe.

Currently, Ye Tian’s internal universe was equivalent to a top-tier Grand Universe, primarily due to Ouyang Jiu’er granting him the second layer of the World Ascension Secret Art.

The second layer could only be cultivated by one with a small accomplishment in the Forbidden Body, and Ye Tian had just achieved this. Once the second layer was perfected, his inner world would rival a quasi-Dao Realm.

With the substantial power of his internal universe, his Blackwind Domain Technique’s effect had strengthened, allowing him to absorb objects at incredible speed. In an instant, he successfully pulled the Forbidden Dao Stone fragment into his universe.

This happened so quickly that Dao Ancestor Ancient Wind froze, as did the other Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor who had blocked him. Even the hidden Dao Ancestors watching from the shadows, hesitant to act, were momentarily stunned.

Their vigilance had been directed solely at other Dao Ancestors, never considering a True Ancestor as a threat.

As a result, they failed to react, allowing nearly ten thousand Forbidden Dao Stones to fall into Ye Tian’s hands.

“True Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, surrender the Forbidden Dao Stones, or I will kill you!” Dao Ancestor Ancient Wind threatened, his voice cold and menacing.
