Your Talent is Mine

TL: Etude

In the midst of battle, Ye Tian sensed the approach of two more Dominator-level Innate Blood Children.

“It seems the other two Dominator-level Innate Blood Children are here. However, we are close to the exit. There’s no need to continue this fight. Let’s focus on defense, endure the damage, and retreat quickly!”

Ye Tian decided. Immediately, he stopped engaging with the Dominator-level Innate Blood Child before him and used all his power to teleport and fly towards the exit.

Boom! Boom! Boom! All the attacks from the Dominator-level Innate Blood Children were blocked by Ye Tian and the damage was transferred to the Sea of Death Flowers. Despite the strength of these attacks, they could not seriously injure Ye Tian.

As the other two Dominator-level Innate Blood Children arrived, Ye Tian reached the stone gate of the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods. He activated the sensor.

Outside, Lord Cang Yu sensed the activation and immediately opened the entrance passage of the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods.

Inside the tomb, Ye Tian stood before the stone gate. Suddenly, a void passage appeared in the gate.

Ye Tian stepped towards the void passage and said, “No need to see me off, Dominators!”

“No!” The three Dominator-level Innate Blood Children roared in fury. But upon reaching the stone gate, they stopped. They dared not leave, as their duty was to guard the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods. Leaving would be a betrayal of the Ancestral God’s will.

They could only watch helplessly as Ye Tian left through the void passage. Fortunately for them, they didn’t leave, or they would have faced Lord Cang Yu outside. Against a Supreme, their strength would have been no match, and they would have been easily killed.

Outside the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods, Ye Tian appeared before Lord Cang Yu.

Lord Cang Yu looked at Ye Tian with anticipation and asked, “Ye Tian, did you find the Blood of an Ancestral God?”

“Yes, I did!” Ye Tian replied, taking out all twenty Ancestral God Blood Crystals. Since these were of no use to him, he handed them all over to Lord Cang Yu.

“These are indeed Ancestral God Blood Crystals! And twenty of them! This is more than enough!” Lord Cang Yu exclaimed excitedly. Although the energy contained in these crystals was negligible to him, they served as a catalyst for transforming his innate bloodline. This transformation could significantly enhance his strength, possibly making him one of the strongest Supremes, especially with his mastery of the Dao of Time.

“Very well, Ye Tian. I will now help you resurrect Zhou Tian!” Lord Cang Yu promised.

“Thank you, Lord Cang Yu!” Ye Tian expressed his gratitude.

“Let’s go to the Human Race!” Lord Cang Yu led Ye Tian to the Human Race.

Soon, they arrived at the Holy Domain of the Human Race, where they were welcomed by Kunwu Supreme.

“Lord Cang Yu, you have arrived! It seems you have obtained the Blood of an Ancestral God. Congratulations!” Kunwu Supreme congratulated.

“It’s all thanks to Ye Tian of your Human Race. Without him, I wouldn’t have been able to acquire the Blood of an Ancestral God!” Lord Cang Yu replied with a smile.

After a brief exchange, they got to the main point.

“Come, I’ll take you to a pavilion in Tianlan Giant City where Zhou Tian once stayed. You can resurrect him there. As you are not of the Human Race, you cannot enter the Supreme Hall of Humanity. It’s our rule,” Kunwu Supreme explained.

“I understand. Any place will do. Once Zhou Tian is resurrected, I will leave,” Lord Cang Yu agreed.

Kunwu Supreme nodded. He led Lord Cang Yu and Ye Tian to a pavilion in Tianlan Giant City, clearing the area to ensure they wouldn’t be disturbed during the resurrection process.

In a room in the pavilion, Lord Cang Yu began to perform a great divine ability of time and space.

“Reverse time, trace the past!” He commanded.

Boom! The power of time surged. Even though Ye Tian was proficient in time manipulation, he was nowhere near the level of Lord Cang Yu. The difference in their realms and strength was vast.

Countless images flashed in reverse. Soon, Lord Cang Yu locked onto a past moment when Zhou Tian had been in that very place.

Boom! The Supreme power penetrated the past time-space, causing Ye Tian to feel an overwhelming temporal aura.

At this moment, Lord Cang Yu was extremely focused. With a hand imbued with the power of time and the strength of a Supreme, he forcibly reached into the past time-space to grasp Zhou Tian.

“Reverse time, return to the present! Universe’s Origin, retreat!” Zhou Tian from the past was forcibly brought back by Ye Tian.

On a deeper level, Lord Cang Yu was also clashing with the Universe’s Origin. Though not a direct confrontation, even this clash was intensely fierce.

Lord Cang Yu used the power of reversing time to seize a fragment of Zhou Tian’s soul origin from the Universe’s Origin. Without this, the resurrection through time reversal would have been impossible.

This process required withstanding the backlash from the Universe’s Origin. However, Lord Cang Yu possessed a time talent, making the cost of reversing time minimal and the backlash from the Universe’s Origin relatively small.

Boom! A figure slowly materialized in front of Ye Tian, gradually restoring from a state of nothingness to a physical body, then slowly manifesting its aura.

Finally, Zhou Tian was fully resurrected! As he opened his eyes, all his memories returned. Seeing Ye Tian, he was filled with shock.

“Master, this…”

“Zhou Tian, you have been resurrected!” Ye Tian said, patting Zhou Tian on the shoulder.

“I… I am resurrected,” Zhou Tian looked around, noticing Kunwu Supreme and Lord Cang Yu. He hurriedly greeted Kunwu Supreme, “Greetings, Kunwu Supreme!”

Kunwu Supreme quickly introduced Lord Cang Yu, “This is Lord Cang Yu. He is the one who resurrected you!”

“Thank you, Lord Cang Yu!” Zhou Tian quickly expressed his gratitude.

Lord Cang Yu waved his hand and said, “No need to thank me. It was merely a transaction. You should thank your master instead. Without him, I wouldn’t have revived you.”

“Master!” Zhou Tian looked at Ye Tian with a mixture of excitement and guilt. He wanted to say thank you, but he knew well that mere words couldn’t repay this debt. He had no idea what Ye Tian had done to get Lord Cang Yu to act, but he knew the cost must have been enormous, beyond his imagination.

“Zhou Tian, take some time to rest. Don’t overthink it,” Ye Tian advised.

“Yes, Master!” Zhou Tian replied.

“Ye Tian, it’s time for us to go. I’m sure you’re very interested in the great opportunity I promised you,” Lord Cang Yu urged. He was eager to deal with everything quickly so he could focus on refining the Blood of an Ancestral God.

“Yes, Lord Cang Yu, let’s go!” Ye Tian agreed. Turning to Kunwu Supreme and Zhou Tian, he said, “Kunwu Supreme, Zhou Tian, I will be leaving with Lord Cang Yu now!”

“Go ahead!” Kunwu Supreme said with a wave of his hand.

Zhou Tian bowed deeply, “Disciple bids farewell to Master!”

Swish! Ye Tian and Lord Cang Yu left Tianlan Giant City. In the void, Ye Tian asked, “Lord Cang Yu, what exactly is this great opportunity?”

Lord Cang Yu murmured, “It is a great opportunity related to time. You should know that the talents of time and space surpass other supreme talents. While other talents reach their peak at the God level, time and space talents have the potential to exceed the God level. Yet, no one in the universe has ever surpassed the God level in time or space talent. Isn’t that strange?”

“It is indeed strange, but as someone with time and space talents, I know that their limits are not at the God level,” Ye Tian replied.

“Exactly. The God level is not the limit for time and space talents. However, no one in the current universe has exceeded the God level in these talents. But this doesn’t mean such talents don’t exist. We live in the main space of the universe, but there are other unique spaces deep within the universe. It is rumored that in these other spaces, there are individuals with time and space talents that exceed the God level. No one has seen them, though. I don’t know where there are talents that exceed the God level, but I do know a place that offers the chance for your time talent to transform.

“I have been to that place before, but my potential wasn’t enough to make my time talent evolve. Additionally, that place can only be visited once in a lifetime by a being with God-level time talent,” Lord Cang Yu explained.

“There’s such a place? Where is it?” Ye Tian asked curiously.

“It’s in the Cang Yu Realm!” Lord Cang Yu replied, “I discovered that place and created the Cang Yu Realm there. I never moved my domain, even going so far as to make enemies with some Supremes and destroy a race that rose near the Cang Yu Realm to protect it.”

“Lord Cang Yu, why are you telling me such a secret? You could have promised me another opportunity without revealing this. This secret is too valuable!” Ye Tian asked in confusion.

“Because I am curious,” Lord Cang Yu said. “I can no longer enter that place, so it holds no value for me. I am curious to see if you can make your talent evolve to surpass the God level. Witnessing a time talent beyond the God level would fulfill a wish of mine.”

“I see. No matter what, I still thank you, Lord Cang Yu, for giving me this opportunity!” Ye Tian expressed his gratitude.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to the Cang Yu Realm. Whether you can make your time talent evolve will depend on your own fate!” Lord Cang Yu said with a smile.

Swish! Ye Tian and Lord Cang Yu quickly left the Human Race’s domain.

Before long, they arrived at the Cang Yu Realm.
