Chapter 125: High-tier Spatial Talent

TL: Etude

Boom, boom, boom!!!

A terrifying attack struck, shattering the enlightenment space.

"What's going on?"

The Tianlin beasts became alarmed, clueless about what had happened.

Ye Tian looked up to the sky and saw towering figures appear among the clouds.

Ten enormous Tianlin beasts, each several hundred meters long, were engaged in fierce combat with a ten-meter-tall, blood-red, three-eyed divine monkey. The battle between them shook the void, obliterating countless dark clouds as beams of light pierced the sky.

The sheer might of the struggle left Ye Tian in awe.

This was certainly not the power of a king-tier; it was something even greater!

Ye Tian initially thought it was an evenly matched battle, but he was wrong.

The divine monkey sent a Tianlin beast into a mist of blood with a single palm strike, its body colliding with another Tianlin beast and sending it flying. The moment that Tianlin beast flew out, it lost all its vitality.

The other Tianlin beasts burned their blood essence in a futile attempt to stop the monkey, but at that moment, the monkey's third eye released a blade of spatial energy that instantly pierced the bodies of three Tianlin beasts, killing them outright.

"Spatial talent, and even a spatial blade. It has to be high-tier spatial talent at the least!"

Ye Tian grew excited; this was the first time he had seen high-tier-level spatial talent.

"Copy it!"

"I must copy it!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

But he knew he couldn't fly up directly. Otherwise, his opponent could kill him from tens of thousands of meters away; there was no way to approach within a kilometer.

Soon enough.

The Tianlin beasts above were all killed, and the monkey, seemingly ignoring the prohibition of the sacred mountain, flew directly in. Its gaze was fixed firmly on the Enlightenment Stele.

The Enlightenment Stele was its goal!

"Kwah, kwah, kwah~"

The divine monkey let out a loud cry. A spatial blade slashed the ground beneath the Enlightenment Stele, causing the earth to crack and the stele to wobble.

Tianlin beasts closer to the impact were killed by the shock, but those farther away were unharmed.

Ye Tian was also affected, but his healing talent, although only high-tier in this body, saved his life; he was just severely injured.

"Almost there, just 1,500 meters left!"

Ye Tian grew anxious.

But the more pressing the situation, the calmer he needed to be.

He knew he might not survive this time, so he first copied the Death Substitute talent from a Tianlin beast, which calmed his mind.

Next was whether or not he could copy the high-tier spatial talent.

It all depended on luck now!

The monkey obviously wanted to sever the Enlightenment Stele from its roots, so as to take it away. It was evidently fearful of the Tianlin clan, as their true powers hadn't yet arrived; the ten Tianlin beasts just now were merely the guardians here.

If the true powerhouses of the Tianlin clan arrived, it would have no chance.

Its spatial blade was extremely terrifying; it had even almost severed the connection between the Enlightenment Stele and the sacred mountain. If given time, it could really take away the Enlightenment Stele.

Just then, a gigantic Tianlin beast flew in from the distant horizon, thousands of meters long. Its terrifying aura dimmed even the sun's light.

The divine monkey looked very apprehensive, glanced at the far distance, and hastened its actions. It came under the Enlightenment Stele and worked to sever its connection with the sacred mountain while also trying to pull the stele out.

At this point.

It was within 1,000 meters of Ye Tian.

Ye Tian's copying talent enveloped the monkey as he immediately scrutinized its talents.

Type: Three-Eyed Divine Monkey

Bloodline Talent: Morning Star Level

Spatial Talent: High-tier

Speed Talent: Medium

Blood Eye Talent: High-tier

Based on the talents, this divine monkey was extremely formidable, easily slaughtering peers.

"Copy!"

Without saying another word, Ye Tian immediately copied the high-tier spatial talent, not even glancing at the other talents.

Spatial talent was the real game-changer; it was one of the two highest talents alongside time talent. Even if it was just high-tier spatial talent, the damage it could inflict far surpassed other top-tier or even pseudo-mystic-level attack talents.

Spatial attacks—though not highly potent, who could possibly withstand them? Even if Ye Tian was merely at the Grandmaster realm, the moment he unleashed his spatial blade, even powerful beings at the King-level would find it hard to resist!

Once he copied the high-tier spatial talent, he would possess a trump card—a truly formidable trump card. In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian successfully copied the high-tier spatial talent.

Just then, a furious roar echoed from the distance: "Damn you, Three-Eyed Divine Monkey!" This was not human language; it was the resonant language of the Tianlin Beast.

The next moment, a massive claw tore through the void, suppressing the Three-Eyed Divine Monkey. The void solidified; even Ye Tian couldn't move an inch. This was an entity horrifying enough to rival the golden eyes that initially split the space.

Under this terrifying force, the Three-Eyed Divine Monkey's teleportation was suppressed; it couldn't escape for the time being.

"Roar!"

The Three-Eyed Divine Monkey was not conceding defeat. A huge spatial blade clashed with the massive claw of the Tianlin Beast. A terrifying shockwave swept through, affecting Ye Tian and the other Tianlin Beasts that hadn't escaped. Their bodies were instantly torn into countless pieces; they died on the spot.

…

Back on Earth.

A soul pierced through the void and entered a house. Ye Tian opened his eyes; his mind was excruciatingly painful.

He was back! However, he hadn't stayed the full three months; he had been blasted back.

"My soul is damaged; it will take at least three months to recover. During this time, I can't comprehend array patterns or spells, but compared to what I've gained, it's all worth it!" Ye Tian's face was flushed with excitement and eagerness.

Substitute Death talent, high-tier spatial talent, defensive mysticism, newly realized techniques—a Silver-level technique known as Sky-Extreme Slash. Any one of these gains was enough to drive anyone mad, and he had acquired them all.

Suddenly, he recalled the moment when he was killed. The Tianlin Beast, which was less than a kilometer away from him, was still vivid in his mind.

Type: Tianlin Beast

Bloodline Talent: Moonlight

Strength Talent: Medium

Speed Talent: Medium

"Moonlight-level bloodline talent? Could it be that talents above Morning Star are Moonlight-level talents? My Xiao Xue's Dawn-level bloodline talent must still be above Moonlight-level!" Ye Tian pondered.

Morning Star, Moonlight, Dawn—Ye Tian was currently at the Morning Star level. But for those in the Demon Sea Base, Morning Star-level cultivation talent was already legendary.

"It won't take long; once I break into the King level, I'll head to the Super Base. By then, copying two Morning Star-level talents should get me to Moonlight-level cultivation talent. Upgrading my cultivation talent won't be hard for me!" Ye Tian confidently declared.

"First, let's integrate the two newly acquired talents; only by integrating them can I rest easy." Ye Tian hurriedly began the integration process.

Perhaps due to his damaged soul, the pain during this integration was several times worse than before. Half an hour later, Ye Tian successfully integrated the Substitute Death Talent and High-tier Spatial Talent.

"Substitute Death Talent!" Ye Tian closed his eyes to sense the situation of his Substitute Death Talent, and quickly learned of its benefits.

"This talent is incredible!" Ye Tian opened his eyes, overjoyed.
