Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 1151: The Fall of Dao Ancestor Secret Sword!

TL: Etude

Dao Ancestor Secret Sword was fleeing with Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire of Blackwind Mountain hot on his heels.

Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire had not yet left the Fireflame Forbidden Zone. After all, it wasn’t often he ventured here, and he wasn’t about to leave without sufficient rewards. This time, his focus was on the capabilities of the Haotian Imperial Mirror. If he could utilize it to evolve his path toward the Half-Step Domain Ancestor realm, he might have the chance to step into that level.

No matter how powerful an Invincible Dao Ancestor was, they were far from a match for a Half-Step Domain Ancestor. The gap in strength between the two was even greater than that between an Invincible True Ancestor and a Supreme True Ancestor.

A Half-Step Domain Ancestor could easily crush an Invincible Dao Ancestor.

For instance, the three palace masters of the Heavenly Emperor Palace issued commands that even Imperial Monarchs dared not disobey due to the overwhelming disparity in power.

However, for an Invincible Dao Ancestor to advance to the Half-Step Domain Ancestor realm was exceedingly difficult.

The Invincible Dao Ancestors had lingered here for a long time, hoping to find a glimmer of hope to reach the Half-Step Domain Ancestor realm through the Haotian Imperial Mirror, willing to pay any price for it.

By now, far too many True Ancestors had perished. Many True Ancestors were in hiding, and hunting them one by one was too slow.

Thus, the Invincible Dao Ancestors turned their sights to the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors.

Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire had spotted Dao Ancestor Secret Sword and had no intention of letting him escape.

“Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire, I have no grievances with you! I’m willing to hand over all my treasures if you’ll spare my life!” Dao Ancestor Secret Sword pleaded.

He had no choice. He was no match for Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire and was already gravely injured.

As for threatening him with the Heavenly Sword Sect? That was laughable. The Heavenly Sword Sect was merely an Eighth Heaven force. As its strongest combatant, he held no leverage against Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire.

“I don’t need your treasures—they’re nothing but garbage to me!” Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire said coldly. “I only want your life!”

Boom!

Dao Ancestor Secret Sword was engulfed by an endless sea of flames. Every wisp of fire was imbued with the pinnacle of the Fire Dao, embodying the ultimate essence of the Fire Dao. Its terrifying power was self-evident.

Dao Ancestor Secret Sword transformed into a sword, attempting to break free.

However, the Dao Fire condensed into chains of laws, binding him tightly and preventing his escape.

The gap in strength between the two was insurmountable, not even in the same league.

If not for being suppressed, Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire could have slain Dao Ancestor Secret Sword in just a few moves. That the latter held out this long was only due to Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire being unable to exert his full strength.

After a while, Dao Ancestor Secret Sword could no longer hold on.

Crack!

His body shattered piece by piece, and his soul, as solid as a Dao Artifact, fractured like broken porcelain, disintegrating into light and fading into nothingness.

A rain of blood descended from the heavens, and the Grand Dao itself mourned.

Dao Ancestor Secret Sword had fallen! Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire collected his remains and quickly departed the scene.

…

Fireflame Forbidden Zone

Ye Tian gazed into the void, where the rules themselves wailed, and blood rained down upon the land. He understood that a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor had fallen. Within the lamentation of the Grand Dao, a silver longsword and a vaguely familiar figure appeared, revealing the identity of the fallen.

Dao Ancestor Secret Sword of the Heavenly Sword Sect!

“Dao Ancestor Secret Sword has fallen. What a pity,” Ye Tian murmured.

Though he was an enemy of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Ye Tian had to admit their misfortune. Previously, Sword Sovereign Changfeng had been besieged and slain while trying to seize a Forbidden Supreme Treasure. Now, yet another Pinnacle Dao Ancestor had fallen.

The Heavenly Sword Sect’s strength had significantly diminished.

The fall of a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor also made Ye Tian acutely aware of the danger in the Fireflame Forbidden Zone. True Ancestors could die at any moment, and even Pinnacle Dao Ancestors could perish if they weren’t careful.

Ye Tian and Ouyang Jiu’er became even more cautious after this.

However, it was unfortunate that obtaining a body at this moment was nearly impossible.

Everyone knew that corpses could be sacrificed to the Haotian Imperial Mirror to evolve one’s future path. Who would leave behind a corpse after a kill? Ouyang Jiu’er and Ye Tian didn’t rush toward the Imperial Mirror either. There might still be Invincible Dao Ancestors lying in wait there. If they went now, wouldn’t they be walking into a trap?

Those Invincible Dao Ancestors wouldn’t hesitate to kill them, seize their Forbidden Supreme Treasures, and even sacrifice their bodies.

…

The Immortal True Nation

This was the True Nation of the Immortal Sect.

Once, the Immortal True Nation was peaceful. But today, a figure tore through its world barriers and descended.

He was none other than Dao Ancestor Power Demon, a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect, an Eighth Heaven force.

Gazing at the countless lives within the Immortal True Nation, Dao Ancestor Power Demon sneered cruelly.

“Hunting True Ancestors in the Fireflame Forbidden Zone is too dangerous. One wrong move, and you become the hunted! It’s far better to plunder the lives of True Nations in the Profound Void Ancient Realm. Then, when the time is right, I’ll slip into the Forbidden Supreme Treasure of the ancient mirror and offer these lives as sacrifices to evolve my future path! I refuse to believe those Invincible Dao Ancestors and Pinnacle Dao Ancestors will stay there forever.”

The ancient mirror Forbidden Supreme Treasure couldn’t be taken away, and it was impossible for the Invincible and Pinnacle Dao Ancestors to remain there indefinitely.

This gave him hope.

At worst, he would collect vast quantities of lives, then retreat into slumber, biding his time for another opportunity.

He had chosen the Immortal True Nation because it was nearby, and without an Invincible True Ancestor, there was no one to stop him.

Whoosh! Dao Ancestor Power Demon arrived on a Starry Sky Continent. With a wave of his hand, countless lives, as insignificant as ants, were drawn into the inner world of Dao Ancestor Power Demon.

One by one, the lives on various Starry Sky Continents were plundered. Among them were not only True Monarchs but also some weaker True Ancestors.

Very soon, Dao Ancestor Power Demon’s actions were discovered.

A large number of True Ancestors attempted to besiege him, but the strongest among them—a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor from the Immortal Sect—was no match for him. True Ancestors fell one after another, their deaths causing staggering losses.

Thus, the Immortal Sect began to seek assistance, appealing to other forces of the Great Divine Hall.

One True Ancestor of the Immortal Sect even leveraged his connections to approach True Ancestor Sheyue from the Void Sky True Nation. In turn, True Ancestor Sheyue sought out Ye Tian. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

The Human Race.

True Ancestor Sheyue from the Void Sky Palace visited Ye Tian. This time, he had heeded Ye Tian’s advice not to venture into the Fireflame Forbidden Zone. Hearing now of the calamities there, he was even more determined to avoid it.

Before long, Ye Tian emerged.

“True Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws!” True Ancestor Sheyue greeted respectfully.

“What is it?” Ye Tian inquired.

True Ancestor Sheyue quickly explained the situation regarding Dao Ancestor Power Demon and earnestly pleaded for Ye Tian’s assistance.

“Dao Ancestor Power Demon is plundering the lives of the Immortal True Nation!”

Ye Tian immediately understood Dao Ancestor Power Demon’s plan—it was to sacrifice a massive number of lives to the Haotian Imperial Mirror. It was a feasible strategy, though it demanded an astronomical number of lives.

Moreover, Ye Tian suspected that other Dao Ancestors might harbor similar intentions.

Of course.

The Dao Ancestors wouldn’t dare linger too long in the Profound Void Ancient Realm. The lives they could plunder in such a short time would be limited.

However, if their rampage continued unchecked, an entire True Nation might be reduced to ruins.

Furthermore, the Immortal True Nation was not far from the Void Sky True Nation. If Ye Tian didn’t intervene, it was possible that a bolder Dao Ancestor might even raid the Void Sky True Nation for lives.

Thus, Ye Tian made a decision.

Today, he would kill a Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestor to establish his authority and deter others from courting death!

“Very well, I agree!” Ye Tian declared.

“Thank you, True Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws!” True Ancestor Sheyue expressed his gratitude.

“Let’s go quickly, or I fear Dao Ancestor Power Demon may escape!”

Ye Tian, accompanied by True Ancestor Sheyue, traversed swiftly to the Immortal True Nation.

“Hahaha! Too easy!” Dao Ancestor Power Demon roared with laughter. “I’ve already killed tens of thousands of True Ancestors, and I’ve plundered countless trillions of ordinary lives. This pace is far faster and safer than in the Fireflame Forbidden Zone.

“Here, no one can rival me! Those trash Dao Ancestors of the Immortal True Nation—dare they descend? If they do, they’ll only die!”

Suddenly.

A wisp of aura rippled through the void, sending an overwhelming sense of danger surging through him.

Crack! The void split open, and Ye Tian stepped out.

“True Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws—it’s you!” Dao Ancestor Power Demon’s expression betrayed a hint of dread.

After all, Ye Tian was a Supreme True Ancestor, not weak by any measure. Dao Ancestor Power Demon knew he couldn’t kill Ye Tian.

What he didn’t realize was that Ye Tian’s current strength far surpassed their last encounter, now rivaling that of a weakened Pinnacle Dao Ancestor.

Dao Ancestor Power Demon had no desire to tangle with Ye Tian. Having spent considerable time in the Profound Void Ancient Realm, he knew his strength would soon begin to wane.

He couldn’t afford to prolong this confrontation. Otherwise, he might suffer a loss—or worse, perish.

In a flash, Dao Ancestor Power Demon transformed into a streak of black light, attempting to flee into the void.

However, Ye Tian activated Forbidden Domain, instantly binding him in place.

At that moment, Dao Ancestor Power Demon’s expression changed dramatically!
