Your Talent is Mine-Chapter 897: The Assassination Plan
TL: Etude
In the Skyfire Sect, two Heavenly Monarchs were discussing a matter. They were Heavenly Monarch Blazing Sun and Heavenly Monarch White Eagle, both possessing formidable strength at the peak of the Destiny Realm. Though they ranked at the lower end of the Heavenly Monarch Rankings, their power was undeniable. Both were leaders within the Skyfire Sect in the vast universe.
“The universe is about to descend into chaos. For our Skyfire Sect, this is both a challenge and a great opportunity!” Heavenly Monarch White Eagle said with a smile. “In the past, we had to tread carefully, but now we can act more freely. Recently, a True Ancestor from our sect sent a message instructing us to deal with disciples of the Void Sky faction.”
“The rumor that our True Ancestor holds a grudge against the Void Sky faction seems to be true,” Heavenly Monarch Blazing Sun added with a laugh. “Previously, the True Ancestor didn’t dare to act against them for fear of being discovered and targeted by the Void Sky’s True Ancestors. But now, with the universe in turmoil, as long as we act covertly, there’s no fear of being traced.”
“Humph! The Void Sky faction has always oppressed us, relying on their numerous Dao Ancestors and True Ancestors. Last time, Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu even snatched an opportunity from us. I fully support acting against the Void Sky faction. Besides, the True Ancestor promised us benefits, so we must perform well. But which target should we choose? Killing an ordinary disciple won’t impact the Void Sky faction much.”
Heavenly Monarch Blazing Sun responded coldly, “Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu and a few other top-tier Heavenly Monarchs are too powerful for us to handle. We should target weaker Heavenly Monarchs, or we could directly go after the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws of the Void Sky faction.”
“What? Attacking the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws of the Void Sky faction? That’s a personal disciple of a Dao Ancestor!” Heavenly Monarch White Eagle exclaimed, shocked.
His initial plan was only to kill a talented Heavenly Monarch from the Void Sky faction, not Ye Tian, who held too high a status. Ye Tian’s fall would shake the entire universe and provoke the Dao Ancestors’ wrath.
“Killing a Dao Child is more impactful than killing a hundred Heavenly Monarchs. If that True Ancestor knew we eliminated the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws, he’d be ecstatic and might reward us generously. A top-tier True Ancestor’s reward would benefit us for countless years.”
Heavenly Monarch White Eagle hesitated for a long time before finally gritting his teeth and agreeing, “Alright, the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws is a Destiny Realm Heavenly Monarch, having ascended from a peak nine-star Divine General, and a transcender. His status far surpasses typical peak nine-star Divine Generals and geniuses. He’s destined to grow into the strongest True Ancestor and might even surpass weaker Dao Ancestors. Thankfully, he’s still new to being a Heavenly Monarch and not too strong yet. We must act quickly.”
“No, we won’t act directly,” Heavenly Monarch Blazing Sun shook his head. “If we act, even if the Dao Ancestor cannot trace it, someone might follow the clues back to us. The Void Sky faction would retaliate, demanding our lives as compensation.”
“Then how do we kill Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws?” Heavenly Monarch White Eagle inquired.
“By employing the Dark God Society!” Heavenly Monarch Blazing Sun suggested coldly. “We’ll have to pay a great price, but the True Ancestor will surely compensate us for our losses.”
Additionally, the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws surely possessed extraordinary wealth, reportedly having a large amount of Black Obsidian Gold and Origin Stones. The Dark God Society would undoubtedly be eager to take on the mission of assassinating him.”
“Alright, then we shall engage the Dark God Society. But won’t they need to know our identities?” Heavenly Monarch White Eagle questioned.
Subsequently, Heavenly Monarch Blazing Sun and Heavenly Monarch White Eagle secretly hired the Dark God Society. The society accepted the mission, though the timing of the assassination would depend on the circumstances. For instance, if Ye Tian remained in the Void Sky Hall, no matter how bold the Dark God Society was, they couldn’t possibly kill him there—it would be suicidal.
Time flew by, and thousands of years passed. Ye Tian continued his cultivation within the Void Sky Hall, never stepping out. Finally, one day, Ye Tian concluded his secluded training. The enhancement effect brought by his breakthrough had significantly weakened. Now, it was almost impossible for Ye Tian to rapidly increase his strength unless he relied on his own efforts or encountered a great opportunity.
“Eighth level of the Profound Void Technique, several chaos divine abilities reaching peak entry level, and I’ve reorganized the two major secret techniques of the Heavenly Saber System and the Primordial System. My strength has increased many times over!” Ye Tian assessed his own strength, but he still felt far from making it onto the Heavenly Monarch Rankings.
The Heavenly Monarchs on that list were no pushovers; each had reached the pinnacle of the Destiny Realm, possessed incredibly strong bodies, mastered at least one Chaos Divine Ability at the major accomplishment realm, and condensed a Dao embryo, having advanced at least ten thousand meters along their paths.
Compared to these Heavenly Monarchs, Ye Tian had many shortcomings. However, being a Heavenly Monarch who ascended from a ten-star Divine General and an Ascendant, his foundation far exceeded that of ordinary Heavenly Monarchs. Consequently, Ye Tian’s strength wasn’t too distant from the last place on the Heavenly Monarch Rankings. This time, Ye Tian left seclusion because he had almost exhausted his points and resources. He needed to gather more resources and look for any opportunities.
As a Heavenly Monarch who ascended from a ten-star Divine General, his foundation was extremely solid, and every minor advancement required a substantial amount of resources. Additionally, the eighth level of the Profound Void Technique consumed resources at an alarming rate. Even with abundant points, he felt they were insufficient.
Not only did Ye Tian feel short of points, but other Heavenly Monarchs, even Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu, also felt their resources and points were insufficient. For instance, Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu had cultivated for countless years, and the points spent over such a long period far exceeded one million, possibly even more than ten million. For these Heavenly Monarchs, points were continuously spent on useful things, and they always found themselves in need of more.
Naturally, Ye Tian couldn’t just sit idle; he had to find ways to earn points. The Human Race had discovered many treasured lands in recent years and marked them. Ye Tian planned to visit these places and gather resources along the way.
As soon as Ye Tian left the Void Sky Hall, his movement was quickly noticed. In a mysterious location in the universe, the Heavenly Monarchs of the Dark God Society became aware of Ye Tian’s movements.
“Immediately execute the assassination plan. Target: The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws!” A set of orders was dispatched.
