Your Talent is Mine

Chapter 541: Supreme Level, The Path Against the Heavens

During these past decades, Ye Tian, aside from advancing the Chaos Body Refining Technique to the pinnacle of the sixth layer, also perfected two Chaos Divine Canon secret techniques: the Primordial Scale Armor and the Primordial Vines Technique, enhancing their power significantly.

Furthermore, Ye Tian made progress in the ultimate Saber Dao technique. His Saber Dao technique, the Heavenly Moon Saber, was already among the strongest of the ordinary Ultimate Saber Techniques.

Now, Ye Tian sought to elevate the Heavenly Moon Saber to the pinnacle level. This step was immensely challenging, but for Ye Tian, who had a clear path and method of cultivation, it was achievable.

He executed the Heavenly Moon Saber countless times, refining its techniques by discarding the superfluous elements, seeking only the most powerful principles of the saber.

With each slash, Ye Tian felt as if he merged with the saber, deepening his understanding of it. However, the gap to creating a pinnacle-level Ultimate Saber Technique remained vast.

One day, Ye Tian summoned Dominator Dark.

“Dominator Dark, I wish to return to the Supreme Hall of Humanity and use the Chaos Tower to break through to the final layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique!” Ye Tian said.

“Prince, you’ve cultivated the Chaos Body Refining Technique to the pinnacle of the sixth layer?” Dominator Dark was astounded.

“Alright, I’ll take you back to the Supreme Hall of Humanity immediately!” Dominator Dark quickly replied.

This was a significant event! If Ye Tian successfully broke through to the seventh layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique, he would be the only prince in humanity to have fully mastered it.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and Dominator Dark departed, unbeknownst to others. Although the Solar System was under blockade, Ye Tian wasn’t restricted by it. If he wished to leave, he could do so at any time, unbound.

Before long, Ye Tian returned to the Supreme Hall of Humanity.

Dominator Dark was responsible for activating the Chaos Tower, which required no application from Ye Tian.

Soon, the Chaos Tower was activated.

This time, the fourth layer of the Chaos Tower, its highest level, was opened. The Chaos Tower consisted of only four layers. Although the third layer would have sufficed for Ye Tian’s needs, the Supreme Hall of Humanity, to be on the safe side, activated the highest level.

Ye Tian’s contributions to humanity were unimaginable. Even though activating the fourth layer of the Chaos Tower was costly, it was insignificant for the entire Human Race.

Thus, the Supreme Hall of Humanity didn’t hesitate to open the fourth layer of the Chaos Tower.

The authorization to activate the fourth layer of the Chaos Tower came from Kunwu Supreme himself.

Boom! The fourth layer of the Chaos Tower was activated, and Ye Tian, led by Dominator Dark, entered the Chaos Tower.

Immediately, he sat down in the lotus position on the fourth layer of the Chaos Tower, cultivating the Chaos Body Refining Technique and beginning to absorb the Chaos Qi and the Chaos Origin Essence of the fourth layer.

In terms of purity, the Chaos Qi here far surpassed that of the first and second layers of the Chaos Tower.

Moreover, the quantity here was overwhelmingly abundant. With just a slight absorption, countless Chaos energies surged into his body, almost to the point of bursting him.

Days passed by.

Ye Tian did not activate time acceleration and simply cultivated in real-time.

On the fifteenth day, Ye Tian suddenly sensed the opportunity for a breakthrough and vigorously cultivated the seventh layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique.

Boom! The Chaos Body Refining Technique broke through, and Ye Tian’s body transcended to another level.

At the same time, Ye Tian’s body frantically absorbed the Chaos energies, enhancing his physical strength and power.

His Yuan Qi became purer, and his soul grew stronger.

In a few days, Ye Tian’s breakthrough stabilized.

At this point, his body was far stronger than before. Perhaps because Ye Tian had become the first of his kind, endowed with the grand destiny of his race and having cultivated two sets of the Eighteen Golden Bodies Technique, the boost from this breakthrough to the seventh layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique was far greater than before.

Simultaneously, Ye Tian truly touched upon a limit.

This limit seemed to be the shackles between an Eternal Child of the Universe and a Supreme Child of the Universe. Breaking through this barrier would allow one to step into the realm of a Supreme Child of the Universe.

However, achieving this status at the Emperor level was exceedingly difficult. Dominator Xuan Yuan had also mentioned that it was impossible to become a Supreme Child of the Universe at the Emperor level due to the universal rules. At the Emperor level, the physical body, yuan qi, and soul are not perfect, making it impossible to become a Supreme Child of the Universe.

Ye Tian had discussed this with his guard, Dominator Dark, who also believed it was impossible for an Emperor-level being to become a Supreme Child of the Universe, advising Ye Tian not to waste his time attempting to reach such a lofty status.

But Ye Tian firmly believed he could achieve it! In the following days, he continued to cultivate in the fourth layer of the Chaos Tower, stabilizing the realm of the seventh layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Ye Tian emerged from the Chaos Tower.

Upon his return, Dominator Dark informed him that Kunwu Supreme had summoned him.

Thus, Ye Tian made his way to the Kunwu Palace.

“Ye Tian, you’ve broken through to the seventh layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique, haven’t you?” Kunwu Supreme asked.

“Yes!” Ye Tian nodded.

“Having reached the seventh layer of the Chaos Body Refining Technique, it’s time for you to attempt the breakthrough to the God level. Lingering at the Emperor level for too long offers no benefits,” Kunwu Supreme stated.

Ye Tian promptly responded, “Kunwu Supreme, I have reached the limit of an Eternal Child of the Universe and wish to attempt the breakthrough to a Supreme Child of the Universe.”

“Do you really wish to attempt the breakthrough to a Supreme Child of the Universe?” Kunwu Supreme inquired.

“Yes.” Ye Tian nodded, then asked, “Does Kunwu Supreme believe it’s possible to break through to a Supreme Child of the Universe at the Emperor level?”

Kunwu Supreme remained silent for a moment, then said, “I do know some secrets. In fact, following your current method of cultivation, it’s almost impossible to break the shackles and become a Supreme Child of the Universe at the Emperor level. The universe will hinder you from becoming a Supreme Child of the Universe. Although you have reached the limit now, you’ll find it difficult to make progress in other aspects, or even impossible to progress further. Only by advancing to the God level can you continue to progress.

However, there is a way that can allow you to continue progressing and break the shackles to become a Supreme, but not as a Child of the Universe!”

“A Supreme, but not as a Child of the Universe?” Ye Tian frowned, puzzled by what Kunwu Supreme was implying.

Kunwu Supreme continued, “A Child of the Universe is a title bestowed by the universe’s favor, always protected by the universe. Thus, it’s very difficult to transcend the universe. Even if one’s cultivation talent allows them to progress beyond the Supreme level, it’s hard to transcend the universe, as the universe does not permit it.

In this case, no matter how high your cultivation talent is, it’s difficult to break the shackles within the universe and achieve the Supreme level.

Many dominators are unaware of this, and only a few Supremes understand. To transcend the universe, one must not follow the intentions of the universe but instead take another path, contrary to the universe’s rules.

According to our speculation, if you defy the universe’s rules at the Emperor level, you can become a Supreme Prince, but no longer a Child of the Universe. However, you will face suppression from the universe, your cultivation speed will decrease by ten or even a hundredfold, and your luck will also diminish significantly.

Of course, as the first Celestial, relying on the Celestial Race’s destiny, you can compensate for the loss of luck, so there’s no need to worry about that.

The last challenge is that each time you break through a major realm, you will face a heavenly tribulation!”

“Heavenly tribulation!” Ye Tian’s heart stirred, having thought there were no heavenly tribulations in this universe, but learning that taking another path would indeed invoke them.

Kunwu Supreme added, “Heavenly tribulations are incredibly terrifying, even more so than the ones you encountered at the Supreme Mountain. If your foundation is insufficient, it will be challenging to grow and survive the tribulations.

However, if you break through the tribulations time and again, reborn through the heavenly tribulations, your ultimate achievements will be boundless.

You might even have the chance to become a being above the Supreme, which is the goal of all of us Supremes!”

“Kunwu Supreme, has anyone in the universe taken this path?” Ye Tian inquired.

“There was one!” Kunwu Supreme revealed, “A member of the Immortal Race, the first prince to brave the ten calamities of the Supreme Mountain at the Emperor level. He was even stronger than you but barely survived the tribulations with severe injuries and without using time reversal.

In the end, he chose to attempt the breakthrough to Supreme level, forsaking the title of a Child of the Universe.

It is said that he perished under the heavenly tribulations, but the specifics are unknown to anyone.

However, his existence proves that this path is viable, and according to many Supremes’ deductions, it’s a path that can lead to transcending the universe.

Ye Tian, think carefully. With your talent, you have a great chance of becoming a Supreme later on.

If you choose the other path, it’s fraught with difficulties and dangers, and you might easily perish under the heavenly tribulations. But there’s a sliver of hope to transcend. The choice is yours!”

Ye Tian fell silent, pondering deeply for a long time, before finally saying, “I choose to take that path against the heavens!”

This wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision, but the result of careful consideration.

With his talent-copying ability, and having elevated all twelve basic attribute talents to the God level, he could definitely aim for the Supreme level if he followed the usual path.

However, under the suppression of the universe, even if his cultivation talent reached the highest level, it would be difficult to become a being above the Supreme level.

But by taking the path against the heavens, he was confident he could become a Supreme, or even exist beyond that, transcending the universe.

Once transcended, even if the universe were to face a great calamity in the future, he wouldn’t die and could even save his family.

Supremes would be powerless in the face of a universal calamity. Having been reborn and possessing a heaven-defying talent like the talent-copying ability, if that member of the Immortal Race dared to take this path, why couldn’t he?

Sensing Ye Tian’s resolve, Kunwu Supreme nodded, “Alright, since you’ve made your choice, I will assist you in attempting the breakthrough to the Supreme level!”
