Your Talent is Mine

Chapter 20: Cultivating the Elemental Body Technique

Joining the Martial Pavilion would bring him only disadvantages, not benefits. If Ye Tian only had mid-level or high-level cultivation talent, he would definitely join the Martial Pavilion. The organization had vast resources and could offer him the best cultivation environment. However, his ability to continuously improve his talents might make him the most talented person on Earth.

Joining the Martial Pavilion would inevitably involve talent testing. How would he explain his continuously improving talents in the future? Would he keep claiming that he had obtained a treasure that could enhance his talents? Such an excuse might work once, but not repeatedly. Even if the Martial Pavilion valued him highly, they would become suspicious of his secrets, and his talent-copying ability would be exposed.

Ye Tian was well aware of his situation. He wouldn't join any organization, as that would only bring trouble. However, he could consider establishing his own force in the future.

"You actually refused!" Yue Ling was shocked. "Do you know how massive the Martial Pavilion is? Any individual we dispatch could easily annihilate the entire Linhai Base."

She couldn't understand why Ye Tian would pass up such a golden opportunity. Even in larger bases, countless geniuses wanted to join the Martial Pavilion but had no chance.

"I really don't want to join any forces," Ye Tian reiterated.

"Fine, then," Yue Ling finally gave up on persuading him to join the Martial Pavilion.

After a brief conversation, Ye Tian left. Once he was gone, an old man walked in from the next room.

"Young lady, why did you invite a Martial Warrior from a small base? Even if he's young, how talented can someone from Linhai Base be? At most, he would have mid-level cultivation talent, which doesn't count as genius in a large base unless he has some special talents," the old man asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing. I just thought it would be nice to recruit such a young Martial Warrior from a place like Linhai Base. I initially planned to take him on as an attendant, but since he's not even willing to join the Martial Pavilion, he obviously wouldn't want to become my attendant," Yue Ling said indifferently.

To Yue Ling and the old man, Ye Tian was an insignificant individual. However, for Ye Tian, this encounter was a small but significant opportunity. He was destined to stay in Linhai Base for a long time and had thought it would be a while before he could copy high-level cultivation talent. Now, he had met a genius from a large base and successfully copied her high-level cultivation talent.

Originally, Ye Tian thought it would take him quite some time to advance to the level of an Elite Martial Warrior. But now that he had high-level cultivation talent, he felt that he could reach that level in just one or two years.

Back at home, Ye Tian was alone as Ye Yu had gone to school. Without any hesitation, he began the fusion process.

Boom!

A long-absent intense pain surged into his mind, as if his entire body was being torn apart.

Ten minutes passed.

Ye Tian felt a sudden relief throughout his body and let out a long sigh.

With a thought, he checked his talent status.

Human: Ye Tian

The information that followed would reveal the fruits of his labor, the newly acquired high-level cultivation talent.

Cultivation Talent: High-level

Speed Talent: Low-level

Blade Talent: Mid-level

Shadow Talent: Low-level

"My high-level cultivation talent is a combination of my original mid-level cultivation talent and Yue Ling's high-level cultivation talent. In terms of talent, I'm even stronger than Yue Ling," Ye Tian thought to himself.

He then took out the Elemental Body Technique manual and studied it carefully, along with the Martial Warrior information he had. After a while, Ye Tian gained a general understanding of Martial Warrior cultivation.

In fact, the body cultivation technique for Martial Disciples is called the Basic Body Technique. For Martial Warriors, the body is the foundation of everything. The Elemental Body Technique for Martial Warriors differs from the Basic Body Technique. The latter focuses on unlocking the body's potential, while the former involves absorbing elemental energy from the environment and storing it in the dantian. This energy then helps in refining the body.

In the early stage, Martial Warriors refined their skin; in the middle stage, they refined their muscles; and in the late stage, they refined their bones. Once all these stages are completed, one would be at the peak of the Martial Warrior realm, possessing immense strength.

"According to the Martial Warrior information, 10,000 jin (catties) is the limit for Martial Warriors, and 100,000 jin is the limit for Elite Martial Warriors. The limit for Grand Martial Warriors wasn't mentioned, but even 100,000 jin is terrifying!" Ye Tian gasped.

It was only now that he truly understood the strength of Martial Warriors, which was far beyond his imagination. He was still very weak, possessing only a little over a thousand jin of strength. He hadn't even started practicing the Elemental Body Technique and didn't have elemental energy yet, so he couldn't be considered a true beginner Martial Warrior.

"Time to start cultivating!"

Following the nine movements described in the Elemental Body Technique, Ye Tian began to absorb elemental energy from the environment.

Boom!

Streams of elemental energy flowed into his body through his pores, transforming into strands of elemental force that entered his dantian under the guidance of the Elemental Body Technique. Then, the elemental force spread to his skin, beginning the process of refining it.

Immediately, a tingling sensation spread across his skin, accompanied by a slight pain. Ye Tian knew this was the process of refining his skin, which needed to be incredibly strong to withstand weapons.

While refining his skin, Ye Tian could clearly feel his strength increasing, much more noticeably than when he was a Martial Disciple.

"People with poor talents find it difficult to absorb elemental energy even after becoming Martial Warriors. For example, those with basic cultivation talent can only absorb a strand of elemental energy after a long time, advancing at a snail's pace. Those with low-level cultivation talent are even more unable to absorb elemental energy, losing their path forward after becoming Martial Warriors. Even using mid-level beast blood doesn't help them. But with my high-level cultivation talent, I can absorb so much elemental energy. The difference in talent is too obvious," Ye Tian thought as he cultivated.

After a while, Ye Tian tried using mid-level beast blood to assist in his cultivation. The blood contained powerful energy that could better refine his skin and muscles, making the cultivation process much faster than practicing the Elemental Body Technique alone. And with his high-level cultivation talent, his absorption of mid-level beast blood was far superior to those with mid-level cultivation talent.

He quickly tested it out.

"A threefold increase in cultivation speed; this is quite good!" Ye Tian said, very satisfied.
