Chapter 205: The Spatial Mystery

TL: Etude

War God Tower.

Ye Tian had just conquered the twentieth level of the War God Tower. Upon leaving the virtual world, the spirit of the artifact appeared.

"Ye Tian, congratulations on passing the twentieth level of the War God Tower and obtaining core permission!" the artifact spirit congratulated.

"Core permission? What specific permissions does that include?" Ye Tian asked.

The artifact spirit explained: "You can use the War God Tower to launch a remote attack once. Except for not being allowed to attack official members of the War God Tower, you can launch an attack on anyone or any creature. The cooldown period is ten years. Additionally, you obtain a second permission: the War God Tower Phantom Defense, with the same ten-year cooldown."

"An extra permission!" Ye Tian's expression changed.

The Battle Axe Emperor and others didn't have core permissions but special permissions, which allowed them to use the War God Tower for a single remote attack, but not the Phantom Defense.

Evidently, by conquering the twentieth level, Ye Tian had gained an additional permission.

"I wonder what level of treasure the War God Tower is. Its defensive capabilities must be incredible. One use of the War God Tower Phantom Defense is a chance to save my life!" Ye Tian thought to himself.

Of course,

In the end, one's own strength is what truly matters. If his strength isn't sufficient, no amount of permissions from the War God Tower would be helpful.

Returning to the main hall of the War God Tower.

"Ye Tian, let's go comprehend the War God Stele!" Empress Yue suggested, taking Ye Tian's hand.

"Alright!" Ye Tian nodded.

Their real purpose for coming was to comprehend the War God Stele. Challenging the War God Tower was just a secondary objective.

Soon after, the two entered the War God Stele Space.

The floating stone slab in the War God Stele Space was not small, accommodating two people sitting together for comprehension. Thus, Ye Tian and Empress Yue sat together to study.

Other Emperors, Saints, and Kings saw Ye Tian and Empress Yue always together and thought they were deeply in love. However, the real reason they sat together was the triple time acceleration.

The distance between two floating slabs was a bit far. If Ye Tian activated the triple time acceleration to cover both slabs, anyone passing between them would inevitably discover the secret of the accelerated time.

By sitting together, even if they activated the time acceleration ability, others wouldn't know.

Triple time acceleration meant that one day of comprehension in the War God Stele Space was equivalent to three days for others.

Points were limited. The ability to gain three times the time was desirable to anyone.

Moreover, Ye Tian's points weren't that many.

He had conquered the twentieth level with Emperor-level cultivation, earning only 10 points at the thirteenth level, 20 points at the fourteenth level, and 40 points at the fifteenth level. By conquering the twentieth level in one go, he had amassed a total of 2550 points.

2550 points might seem a lot, but in reality, it was only enough for about seven years of cultivation. Empress Yue's points were even fewer, barely over 600, insufficient for even two years.

After reaching the Emperor level, cultivation comprehension is generally measured in years. Being able to save time and points was indeed advantageous.

In a blink of an eye, a month passed.

Ye Tian finished his comprehension.

"It's too slow. To comprehend Sword Dao from beginner understanding to achieving ten percent mastery might take a year," Ye Tian lamented.

A year was too long. Even with his triple time acceleration, it would still take four months. If he focused entirely on cultivation for those four months, he might even break through the fifth physical limit.

But he couldn't neglect the Sword Dao. It was crucial for cultivating the legendary sword technique, Starfall Slash.

Only when his Sword Dao Realm reached ten percent mastery could he hope to cultivate Starfall Slash to minor completion. Once Starfall Slash reached minor completion, it could amplify his attack power by fifty times.

"If only I could seize the Comprehension Stele," Ye Tian thought, recalling the three-star space rift near Demon Sea Base and the beast world behind it. Within that beast world was the Comprehension Stele, and that beast world seemed relatively weaker, certainly not as strong as the one ruled by the twelve ferocious beast lords.

Unfortunately, the three-star space rift only allowed Kings to enter, not Emperors.

If Ye Tian could enter, he would easily obtain the Comprehension Stele.

"No, there must be a way to cross the space rift; it's just a matter of how much it costs!" Ye Tian suddenly realized.

Emperor-level ferocious beasts could pass a hand through the space rift, and although it would backlash, it wouldn't be fatal. If he forced his entire body through the rift, his current spatial talent might allow it, but he would be gravely injured.

But what if…

"What if my spatial talent could reach the Pseudo-Mystic level?" Ye Tian wondered.

He felt that if his spatial talent could reach the Pseudo-Mystic level, he might be able to cross the three-star space rift with a smaller cost.

Space talent is a supreme talent, and comprehending a top-level space talent into the Pseudo-Mystic level would be incredibly difficult. Even the Space Devouring Beast Emperor Ling had not comprehended the spatial mystery.

But Emperor Ling's talent was only at the Moonlight level, whereas Ye Tian possessed a supreme level cultivation talent.

The higher the cultivation talent, the higher the comprehension of mystery.

Emperor Ling couldn't comprehend the spatial mystery, but with the help of the War God Stele and supreme level cultivation talent, Ye Tian might be able to do it.

"Let's not focus on the Sword Dao for now and try to fully comprehend the spatial mystery!" Ye Tian shared this idea with Empress Yue.

Knowing that Ye Tian had a top-level spatial talent, Empress Yue fully supported his decision.

"Spatial Confinement!"

Ye Tian activated the spatial confinement, completely locking down a ten-meter radius around him, and then began to slowly comprehend the spatial mystery from the confined space.

Time passed day by day.

Half a month later, Ye Tian sensed a peculiar fluctuation.

Gradually, a faint spatial fluctuation emerged around him, the oscillation of mystery.

He had successfully comprehended the spatial mystery!

At the same time, Ye Tian's spatial talent also underwent a change.

[Spatial Talent: Pseudo-Mystic]

Merely at the Pseudo-Mystic level, not even having reached ten percent comprehension, Ye Tian was still very satisfied.

At least, he had successfully crossed this threshold.

In the following time, he focused entirely on spatial mystery, spending another month to barely comprehend it to the ten percent realm.

"A ten percent Pseudo-Mystic level spatial talent should be enough. To continue and reach twenty percent would take at least half a year, and the difficulty of comprehending the spatial mystery far surpasses that of other mysteries!"

Ye Tian could not afford to waste all his time on the spatial mystery; it wasn't worth it.

So,

He and Empress Yue left the War God Stele Space.

After returning,

Empress Yue entered the Moon God Temple for cultivation, while Ye Tian left Zhonghai Super Base.

Using yuan qi to refine his body, breaking through the fourth physical limit would be too slow. He wanted to use attributed yuan qi to refine his body, so he could break through the fourth physical limit within a month.

Changling River.

Ye Tian came here again.

"The bottom of Changling River has an incredibly rich concentration of water yuan qi, making it a perfect place for cultivation!" Ye Tian murmured.

Without hesitation, he entered the bottom of the Changling River and began his secluded cultivation.
