Chapter 150: Xiao Xue Awakens, Slightly Arrogant!

TL: Etude

For two months, Ye Tian couldn't enhance his cultivation level any further. He had already reached the peak of the King level, and the next step was the Saint level.

Unable to break through to the Saint level and unable to enhance his cultivation, he had no choice but to improve in other areas.

Such as sword intent, or by copying other talents.

In the next two days, Ye Tian frequented various divisions of the Loose Cultivators Alliance and numerous Battle Axe Mercenary Halls, in an attempt to find exceptional talents.

Finally, he succeeded!

In the San Shan Area, at a Battle Axe Mercenary Hall.

Ye Tian discreetly observed a seventy-year-old martial warrior. This man had the appearance of a monkey with a sharp mouth and thin cheeks, and a blood-red eye in the center of his forehead, a member of the Tri-eyed Human Race.

His appearance was quite strange, and his cultivation level wasn't high, merely at the level of a Grandmaster.

However, his talent caught Ye Tian's attention.

Tri-eyed Human Race: Gu Tong

Cultivation Talent: Extraordinary

Speed Talent: Beginner

Disguise Talent: Advanced

This Tri-eyed Human named Gu Tong, although only having an extraordinary level of cultivation talent, possessed a talent for disguise.

"This person has extraordinary talent; he can't possibly be just a Grandmaster at the age of seventy. His actual age must be quite young. Could it be that he used his disguise talent to appear as an old man?" Ye Tian was greatly surprised.

Upon closer inspection, the man did indeed appear to be an old man in every aspect, whether it was skin, eyes, or even the aura of life, all matched that of an elderly person, leaving no clue to the contrary.

Had it not been for his ability to copy talents, Ye Tian wouldn't have suspected that the man was actually young.

"The talent for disguise, this is a really good talent. In two months, when I enter the temple, I might be able to use this disguise talent to transform into another person. That way, even if I offend someone inside, they won't know my real identity." Ye Tian was secretly thrilled.

Thus, he stealthily copied Gu Tong's disguise talent.

Afterwards, he visited some other places, approaching the headquarters of some major forces, but since he couldn't enter, and his talent copying couldn't cover a wide range, he was unable to copy the talents of core members of those major forces.

In the end, not wanting to waste more time, Ye Tian randomly copied a top-tier shadow talent.

Originally, he also had a shadow talent, but it was only basic. Now that he had copied a top-tier shadow talent, it was a decent gain.

Returning home, Ye Tian then merged the top-tier shadow talent with the advanced disguise talent.

At this moment.

Ye Tian discovered that the advanced disguise talent wasn't as simple as he thought; it allowed him to disguise himself as other creatures.

"I can even disguise myself as a ferocious beast!"

Ye Tian was genuinely astonished.

He had thought that the disguise talent was just a simple human face swap, but after touching the mark of the disguise talent, he realized the magical aspects of the disguise talent.

However, the advanced disguise talent couldn't disguise him as any beast, only humanoid beasts like monkeys.

Meanwhile, the disguise talent could also transform him into a woman, even perfectly mimicking a woman's voice.

But the thought of disguising himself as a woman made Ye Tian feel too awkward, and he quickly dismissed the idea.

Arriving at the War God Tower.

Ye Tian prepared to start a closed-door meditation to comprehend sword intent. There was no use in holding onto his points, so he planned to use them all to comprehend sword intent. If he could raise his understanding of sword intent, it would be of great use should he obtain a golden-level blade technique in the temple space.

In the War God Stele space.

Ye Tian began to comprehend sword intent. As days passed, his realm of sword intent steadily improved.

77% Sword Intent!

77% Sword Intent!

78% Sword Intent!

…

Unbeknownst to him, Ye Tian had already been in seclusion for nearly two months. He only left once, following a Saint-level practitioner. After that Saint-level practitioner left the War God Stele space, Ye Tian followed suit. The moment he left the War God Tower, he copied Pseudo-Mystic strength talent from him, enhancing his own Pseudo-Mystic strength talent to 60%. Additionally, he copied a single-layer Pseudo-Mystic speed talent from the same individual, elevating his own speed talent to 20%, reaping considerable rewards.

Aside from this, he had been continuously staying in the War God Stele space, comprehending sword intent.

"Phew~"

Ye Tian opened his eyes, filled with joy.

"I've done it, 80% Sword Intent!" he thought to himself.

However, he had cheated. Indeed, he had secretly activated a time acceleration talent, but only covered himself with it, keeping others unaware of his use of the time talent. Under the thrice-accelerated time, he had effectively meditated for six months, which allowed him to comprehend the Eight-layer realm of sword intent. This kind of cheating was something only he could do, as others didn't possess the capability of time acceleration. Although maintaining this ability consumed a significant amount of his energy stones, it was well worth it.

"It seems the War God Tower isn't omnipotent. It didn't stop me from using time acceleration; probably it didn't detect it!" Ye Tian speculated.

With 80% Sword Intent achieved, and the Ancient Civilization Relic Temple about to open, he decided not to linger any longer.

"It's time to leave!" he thought as he left the War God Stele space and headed home.

Upon arrival, he was surprised to find that his pet, Xiao Xue, had awakened.

"Xiao Xue, you're finally awake. You've been asleep for so many months!" Ye Tian said, patting Xiao Xue's head.

"Master, I've found something new in my mind," Xiao Xue excitedly said.

"What is it?" Ye Tian asked nervously, concerned about his beast companion.

"It seems like a legacy. I had a simple one when I was born, but now there are cultivation methods and something about comprehending mysteries," Xiao Xue casually remarked.

"What!" Ye Tian's eyes widened in disbelief, staring intently at Xiao Xue.

He soon understood. It was the legacy of the War Blood Sky Dragon race, which awakened in stages to ensure steady progress in cultivation. Unfortunately, the War Blood Sky Dragon race's secrecy was so strict that even Xiao Xue could only comprehend it by itself, unable to share it due to something akin to a vow.

With no other choice, Ye Tian could only encourage Xiao Xue to cultivate diligently. After all, once Xiao Xue comprehended any mysteries, he could just copy them, so there was no envy.

"Xiao Xue, you're going to be my mobile mystery treasury!" Ye Tian thought, looking at Xiao Xue.

Poor Xiao Xue had no idea that its shameless master viewed it as a treasure trove; otherwise, it would surely have complaints.

"Xiao Xue, I'm planning to go out for a while. You stay in my advanced cultivation room and cultivate. Your current strength is too weak; I could crush you with just a finger," Ye Tian taunted Xiao Xue.

"Hmph, master, wait until you come back, I'll definitely be stronger than you!" Xiao Xue retorted, feeling somewhat inflated after receiving the powerful dragon race legacy.

Little did it know that no matter how strong it became, it could never surpass Ye Tian. After all, Ye Tian could copy all its talents, making any comparison futile.
