Chapter 196: Invisibility Talent Seen Through!

TL: Etude

Upon reaching the Emperor level, Ye Tian's strength surged manyfold. His physical strength reached 100 Dragon Power, and with the amplification of yuan force, it could reach 200 Dragon Power. His Mystic-level strength talent boosted it a hundredfold, and Starfall Slash a further thirtyfold. Thus, Ye Tian's maximum attack power could reach 600,000 Dragon Power.

However, Ye Tian also possessed a God-level extreme speed talent, top-tier spatial talent, and basic time talent, along with many other Mystic-level talents. His strength was sufficient to battle against beings with a million Dragon Power. It could even be said that he was close to being invincible against powerful entities like the Battle Axe Emperor, who could only suppress but not kill him. He was getting closer to becoming the top figure at Zhonghai Super Base!

"It's about time. I should head to the Holy Dragon Tree," Ye Tian said gravely.

He then used his disguise talent to transform himself into a Ming Illusion Beast, a creature naturally gifted in disguise and invisibility. His transformation was nearly flawless.

After disguising himself, Ye Tian became invisible and flew towards the Holy Dragon Tree. It took a long while before he arrived at the area of the Holy Dragon Tree. There, he sensed the presence of many Emperor-level ferocious beasts, but not a single Saint-level or lower realm beast, indicating that the weaker ones had been driven away by the Emperor-level beasts. This place was about to become a battleground for Emperor-level beasts!

Soon, Ye Tian arrived in front of a colossal mountain, atop which stood a divine tree soaring into the heavens – the Holy Dragon Tree. Its bark resembled dragon scales, and its branches were like dragon tendons. The tree itself was shaped like a coiled dragon, justifying its esteemed name.

At that moment, the Holy Dragon Tree bore nine fruits, each the size of a head, emitting a fragrant aroma that permeated hundreds of thousands of miles. Countless Emperor-level beasts lurked nearby, eyeing the Holy Dragon Fruits with immense desire. Once the fruits ripened, the ensuing battle would be unimaginably fierce!

Initially, Ye Tian's invisibility prevented other Emperor-level beasts from noticing him.

But soon, a cold voice rang out, "Which beast is hidden here, trying to stealthily pick the Holy Dragon Fruits?"

This was a universal beast language unique to this world, which Ye Tian understood thanks to his powerful memory learned while hypnotizing other beasts.

As soon as the voice fell, a beam of light shot towards him.

Boom!

Ye Tian was hit. Although his invisibility talent was not broken, the light obstructed by his body revealed his position. Realizing that continued hiding would incite fury, Ye Tian dispelled his invisibility talent, revealing the body of the Ming Illusion Beast.

A flurry of gazes turned towards him.

"The legendary Ming Illusion Beast actually exists!" Exclaimed a thousand-kilometer-long turtle. It was one of the twelve overlords, the Xuan Turtle, known for its long life, vast experience, and amiable nature.

"Ming Illusion Beast, the mythical creature that can disguise and transform?"

"I thought it was just a legend, but it really exists!"

"However, this Ming Illusion Beast doesn't seem very powerful. It must have just ascended to the Emperor level, daring to compete for the Holy Dragon Fruit. Is it seeking death?"

"It has an invisibility talent. If not for Lord Longmu's keen sight, it might have successfully stolen a Holy Dragon Fruit!"

Hearing these discussions, Ye Tian secretly felt fortunate. Luckily, he had used his disguise talent. Had he relied solely on his invisibility talent, his identity would have been exposed and he would have been torn apart by these ferocious beasts.

Then, he looked towards the beast that had seen through his invisibility – a one-eyed creature, resembling an eel, with only one eye in the center of its forehead.

Although Ye Tian was some distance away and couldn't examine the beast's talents in detail, he was certain that it possessed a special talent capable of penetrating invisibility.

"Ming Illusion Beast, you've just ascended to the Great Emperor level and have no right to compete for the Holy Dragon Fruit. Leave!" The one-eyed Emperor-level beast commanded as it charged towards him.

The beast swung its tail fiercely, apparently aiming to kill Ye Tian in a single blow. In the brutal world of ferocious beasts, there was no mercy for the weak.

"An Emperor-level beast equal to the thirty-six Emperors!" Ye Tian instantly assessed.

To counter such a beast, relying solely on his Mystic-level strength talent was insufficient. His physical strength was only 100 Dragon Power, and yuan Qi amplification brought it to 200 Dragon Power. With the addition of his Mystic-level strength talent, he could exert 20,000 Dragon Power. Without using the Star Chop, even 20,000 Dragon Power wouldn't be enough to handle a weaker Thirty-sixth layer Emperor.

The Dragon Eye Emperor-level beast before him had an attack power of at least 100,000 Dragon Power, certainly not something to be taken head-on.

"God-level extreme speed talent!" Ye Tian activated this divine talent and swiftly dodged the beast's attack…

He also managed to observe the opponent's talents:

Species: Dragon Eye Crystal Beast

Bloodline Talent: Moonlight

Crystal Talent: Mystic

Strength Talent: Mystic

Defense Talent: Top

Speed Talent: Top

Insight Eye Talent: Top

Naturally, the Dragon Eye Crystal Beast's top-level speed talent was no match for Ye Tian's God-level extreme speed talent. Even if his cultivation was slightly inferior to the beast, the boost from his divine talent made him much faster.

Thus, the beast's attack missed Ye Tian.

"If your speed and defense are lacking, why should I fear you?" Ye Tian sneered. Immediately, he utilized his God-level extreme speed talent to close in on the Dragon Eye Crystal Beast and struck with a claw.

"Slash!" With a tearing sound, his claws, enhanced by the Slashing talent, turned into terrifying talons, tearing through the beast's thick scales and drawing copious blood. Having injured the Dragon Eye Crystal Beast, Ye Tian swiftly retreated.

The beast roared and activated its Mystic-level Crystal Talent, spreading a chilling aura that crystallized the ground and rocks. Against such a talent, speed would be constrained. Without revealing his true strength, Ye Tian would find it challenging to deal with the Mystic-level Crystal Talent.

However, at that moment, a voice rang out, "He has the right to compete for the Holy Dragon Fruit. Dragon Eye, stop!" The Xuan Turtle overlord spoke.

Hearing the Xuan Turtle overlord's voice, the Dragon Eye withdrew its Crystal Talent and retreated unwillingly. The authority of the Twelve Overlords was not to be underestimated, and provoking one meant certain death.

Although the Xuan Turtle was known for being approachable, this was only because no beast had provoked it. If angered, its reputed amicability would mean nothing. The Dragon Eye Crystal Beast, fearing the Xuan Turtle, dared not disobey its command.

"Thank you, Xuan Turtle Overlord!" Ye Tian expressed his gratitude. Although the beast had helped him out of a difficult situation, a word of thanks was in order.

The Xuan Turtle nodded in satisfaction, then warned, "Little fellow, it's better for you to just watch. The Holy Dragon Fruit is not something you can seize!"
