Your Talent is Mine

TL: Etude

Suddenly.

Zero recalled Ye Tian's origins. He was a native of the Grand Universe and a Heavenly Monarch of the Human Race.

"The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws is also from the Human Race. I've heard that many natives hold their homelands in high regard. The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws must care deeply about the Human Race as well," Zero speculated.

He had no emotional attachment to his former race, so he couldn't fully understand such feelings.

However, if Ye Tian indeed cared for the Human Race, targeting them might force him to appear.

Of course, Zero couldn't let the Void Sky Hall know it was him attacking the Human Race, or he would be exposed.

Whoosh! Zero traveled to the Human Race's territory and secretly struck against several of their Earthly Venerables and Divine Generals, killing them outright.

However, he couldn't attack those in the core regions of the Human Race.

But as long as he secretly slaughtered enough humans, it would surely draw Ye Tian's attention.

As more members of the Human Race perished, the high-ranking members began to panic.

In the core region of the Human Race, a group of Heavenly Monarchs convened for a discussion.

Heavenly Monarch Primordial, Heavenly Monarch Kunwu, as well as Ye Tian's wife, Xiao Yue, and his younger sister, Ye Yu, were among them. Both women had also advanced to the rank of Heavenly Monarch, with strength far exceeding that of the others present.

However, the actual handling of Human Race affairs was still under the control of Heavenly Monarch Primordial and Heavenly Monarch Kunwu.

"Many of our people have gone missing recently, including some Earthly Venerables and Divine Generals. Even several of our geniuses have vanished without a trace. According to the soul lamps left in the Supreme Hall of Humanity by some of the geniuses, they have fallen," Heavenly Monarch Kunwu said, frowning.

"Who could have done this?" Heavenly Monarch Primordial was puzzled. "Although our Human Race isn't powerful, we're backed by the Void Sky Hall, and the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws hails from our race. Who would dare to target us? The one responsible must be a Heavenly Monarch. We, being weaker Heavenly Monarchs, are probably no match for this situation,"

Ye Yu suggested. "Why don't I inform my brother?"

"We have no choice but to ask the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws for help," Heavenly Monarch Primordial nodded in agreement.

Inside the Void Sky Hall.

Ye Tian, who was in seclusion, received a message from his sister and wife.

"Someone is targeting the Human Race?" Ye Tian frowned.

His first thought was the Demon Sound Sect.

After all, the last time he confronted them, they suffered severe losses, and the Demon Sound Sect surely wanted him dead.

"No, the Demon Sound Sect knows my strength. They can't possibly kill me. Besides, my current strength far surpasses what it once was. They wouldn't dare provoke me now," Ye Tian reasoned.

After pondering for a while, he still couldn't figure out who the enemy was.

"Regardless, I need to return and check things out."

Ye Tian rose and left the Void Sky Hall, heading straight for the Human Race's territory.

In a remote area of the Human Race's territory.

Zero grinned wickedly, his face full of sinister excitement.

"Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws, you've finally left the Void Sky Hall!"

Whoosh! His figure vanished instantly.

After returning to the Human Race, Ye Tian met with his wife and sister, then inquired with the Human Race's leadership about the situation.

Unfortunately, the high-ranking members knew little, only that the mysterious enemy was at least a Heavenly Monarch and not weak. Otherwise, they couldn't have wiped out so many members of the Human Race so silently.

Ye Tian then personally went to investigate the sites of the incidents.

From starry continents to entire worlds, Ye Tian searched relentlessly for clues.

On one such starry continent.

Ye Tian arrived, only to find that the entire Human population there had already been wiped out, their bodies obliterated by a terrifying force.

The souls of the fallen had not transcended, and their imprints still lingered within the river of time. With a bit of effort, they could all be resurrected.

But until the culprit was found, the Human Race would remain in danger.

Just as Ye Tian prepared to leave, a flood of blood surged toward him.

Boom!!!

The fabric of space for billions of miles around instantly collapsed, and even the starry continent was reduced to ashes.

"Die!" Zero's figure emerged.

He had just unleashed his Blood Annihilation Technique with full force, obliterating the entire area in an instant, focusing his attack on Ye Tian.

No matter how fast Ye Tian reacted, he couldn't teleport away in time using the Great World Shift.

"Is he dead?" Zero murmured, gazing at the void-filled starry sky.

"Zero! So it's you!"

A voice, void of emotion, echoed.

In the next moment, a figure materialized—it was none other than Ye Tian, the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws.

"How is this possible? How are you still alive?"

Zero stared at the suddenly appearing Ye Tian in utter disbelief.

Under the devastating power of his Blood Annihilation Technique, Ye Tian had not only survived but seemed entirely unharmed!

"Zero, your strength is indeed formidable, and you've even stepped into the Half-Step True Spirit Realm. But it's a pity you have no understanding of my power! If this had been a few million years ago, your attack might have severely injured or even killed me.

"But unfortunately, your assassination attempt came too late. My current strength is far beyond what you can imagine!" Ye Tian said coldly.

"Hmph, you're just a Heavenly Monarch. How powerful could you possibly be? The only thing that surprises me is how strong your life-saving abilities are. But simply relying on life-saving techniques, you shouldn't have been able to withstand my Blood Annihilation Technique. It seems you've used a life-saving trump card given to you by your master!" Zero speculated.

"It's simply because you're ignorant. I blocked your Blood Annihilation Technique with my own strength, not through any life-saving trump card.

Zero, I had no grudge against you initially. It was nothing more than a competition for the Eternal Flame, where I succeeded, and you failed. Such battles over treasures don't constitute a life-or-death feud.

But you dared to kill my people and even attempted to assassinate me.

Today, you will die!" Ye Tian said angrily.

"You think you can kill me?" Zero sneered, his tone full of disdain.

"Eternal Immortal Flame, descend!" Ye Tian commanded.

Boom! An endless sea of Eternal Immortal Flames manifested from the void, attacking Zero from all directions.

Zero frowned slightly at the sight of the Eternal Immortal Flame.

He recognized this chaotic divine ability—it was the Eternal Immortal Flame.

Ranked 25th on the Chaos Divine Ability List, this technique was terrifying. Furthermore, Ye Tian had cultivated it to the limit, and combined with his immense power, the technique's might was unfathomably terrifying.

Zero could sense an overwhelming crisis from the Eternal Immortal Flame—a danger so intense it was suffocating.

"Impossible! I was once one of the strongest Heavenly Monarchs of the Chaos, ranked first on the Heavenly Monarch Rankings in the Grand Universe. Now, I've advanced to the Half-Step True Spirit Realm, forming a half-step ultimate True Spirit. How could the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws, a mere Heavenly Monarch, possibly be my match? I refuse to believe it!" Zero roared in fury.

"Stellar Immortal Body!"

"Blood Fiend Demon Body!"

"Eternal Longevity Body!"

Zero activated one powerful body constitution after another, his aura growing more terrifying by the moment.

In his quest for strength, he had cultivated numerous Chaos body-refining techniques. His physical body had reached a monstrous level, with multiple constitutions combined, making him far superior to other Heavenly Monarchs and granting him formidable life-saving abilities.

At the same time, Zero unleashed an ice-element chaos divine ability, hoping to resist the Eternal Immortal Flame. But to his shock, the Eternal Immortal Flame was far too terrifying, instantly burning through his ice-element technique.

Whoosh! A wisp of the Eternal Immortal Flame broke through layers of defense and landed on Zero's body.

In an instant, the armor and flesh on Zero's body began to burn.

With Zero's strength and deep foundation, he could naturally extinguish the Eternal Immortal Flame on his body. But this was a battle, and there was no time for him to put out the fire.

"Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws, you're courting death!" Zero charged at Ye Tian, intending to engage in close combat.

Ye Tian showed no fear and met Zero head-on in battle.

Blood River Immortality Technique, Devouring Gold Divine Ability, Time-Space Shift, Void Sky Dao Body…

Ye Tian's techniques seemed endless. His speed, defense, and attacks all reached terrifying levels, and his foundation was incredibly deep.

Zero's foundation was indeed strong, but it was far inferior to Ye Tian's. As a result, even though Zero had reached the peak of what a Heavenly Monarch could achieve, it still wasn't comparable to Ye Tian's limit.

Although Zero had broken through to the Half-Step True Spirit Realm, it was merely a minor breakthrough. His physical body, Chaos divine power, and divine soul hadn't increased by much; the real boost in combat strength came from the amplification of his True Spirit.

Even after this amplification, Zero was only slightly stronger than Ye Tian.

The key difference was that Ye Tian's endurance was far greater, and he was completely unafraid of injury, appearing almost immortal. His defense was nearly unbreakable.

Even Zero's Blood Annihilation Technique had failed to breach Ye Tian's defense, so his other methods naturally wouldn't succeed either.

The two continued to battle fiercely, but while Ye Tian remained virtually unscathed, Zero's injuries began to worsen.

After a prolonged battle, the surrounding region was shattered, but Ye Tian's aura only grew stronger, while Zero's gradually weakened.

Their fight eventually attracted the attention of the Void Sky Hall and even some other forces. However, no one dared approach.

In the distance.

Heavenly Monarch Tun Yue and Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu arrived at the scene, witnessing the battle between Ye Tian and Zero.

"This…"

Heavenly Monarch Tun Yue was shocked. "The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws is this powerful? He can fight head-on with Zero, who has broken through to the Half-Step True Spirit Realm!"

Not only was Tun Yue stunned, but the other Heavenly Monarchs were equally amazed.

"The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws is undoubtedly an invincible Heavenly Monarch, perhaps even the strongest Heavenly Monarch of this chaotic era!" Heavenly Monarch Peng Yu praised.

"Should we step in and help?" one of the Heavenly Monarchs asked.

"We can't help!" Heavenly Monarch Tun Yue replied. "Anyone else who gets involved will likely die. Besides, we're too weak. Joining in would only drag the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws down!"

As the major powers observed the battle between Ye Tian and Zero, they were all astounded by Ye Tian's power.

Of course, they were also surprised by Zero's combat strength. His abilities far exceeded those of other Half-Step True Spirit Realm experts. If not for Ye Tian, Zero would undoubtedly be the strongest person in the Grand Universe at present.

After a prolonged fight, Zero gradually weakened.

He faltered. "I need to escape! I can't keep fighting, or the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws will wear me down to death. Damn it, how can there be such a terrifying Heavenly Monarch? This is utterly unreal!" Zero said helplessly.
