Chapter 681: Journey to the Ironwood Race Ruins
TL: Etude
After Zhou Tian departed, Ye Tian continued his secluded cultivation.
In the short term, he and Zhou Tian wouldn’t head to the Ironwood Race ruins, so he wouldn’t waste this time and aimed to further enhance his strength.
Currently, Ye Tian could boost his power mainly through mastering the Spear of Hellish Void. Once he comprehended this spatial great divine ability to a minor achievement level, it would greatly enhance his strength.
As for the Wheel of Time, although it could also be elevated to a minor achievement level, since it hadn’t been long since he mastered it, he found it easier to advance the Spear of Hellish Void to the minor achievement level.
Of course, Ye Tian also strove to perfect other secret techniques and the ultimate techniques of the Heavenly Moon Saber.
Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, a hundred years had gone by.
On this day.
Ye Tian was overjoyed, gazing at the spear that appeared in his hand—it was the Spear of Hellish Void.
At this moment, the Spear of Hellish Void was filled with terrifying spatial rules, its momentum far surpassing before.“The Spear of Hellish Void, minor achievement!”
Ye Tian exclaimed excitedly.
Moreover, in this hundred years, he had also further comprehended the ultimate techniques of the Saber Dao, allowing the Heavenly Moon Saber techniques to advance to the mid-lower tier of the strongest saber Dao ultimate techniques.
Previously, the Heavenly Moon Saber techniques were considered the lowest tier of the strongest saber Dao ultimate techniques. Now, having elevated from the lowest tier to the mid-lower tier marked significant progress. In other aspects of secret techniques, Ye Tian had made considerable strides, and his Celestial Soul realm had also advanced to the middle extreme of the Nether General stage.
Additionally, Ye Tian utilized a substantial amount of unique water-energy to temper his body to the limit, achieving an incredible level of compatibility with the Chaos Dao.
Furthermore, Ye Tian slightly enhanced the Chaos Dao at the Dharma Aspect realm, making the Chaos Sea Dharma Aspect even stronger than before!
“The time is about right!” Ye Tian murmured.
After waiting for a hundred years, Zhou Tian had long since fully recovered and had started taking on some missions. Even going to the Ironwood Race ruins now wouldn’t attract attention.
Immediately, Ye Tian notified Zhou Tian to come to the Sky Pavilion.
It didn’t take long for Zhou Tian to arrive!
“Master, are we departing now?” Zhou Tian asked.
“Yes, after a hundred years, it’s time to go to the Ironwood Race ruins!” Ye Tian replied.
“Yes!”
Zhou Tian was also very excited. After all, the Ancient Tree of Life represented eternal life for him. Unlike Ye Tian, who defied the heavens, Zhou Tian required a lengthy accumulation of resources, and before becoming a Universal God, his lifespan was limited.
Lifespan-enhancing treasures were extremely rare. If he could obtain the Ancient Tree of Life, it would solve his problems, allowing him to accumulate resources for a long time even at the Great God level.
Thus, he eagerly wanted to head to the Ironwood Race ruins to seize the Ancient Tree of Life.
Of course, he knew not to rush things, so he held back!
“Master, should we take a mission to the Ironwood Race ruins? This way, we can handle things along the way!” Zhou Tian suggested.
“No!” Ye Tian flatly refused, “Although there are many missions related to the Ironwood Race ruins, there are essentially no benefits. If you take one, it might be excusable, but if I take a mission, it would arouse suspicion.” 𝐑
“We’ll go directly, wander around a few star fields first, and then head to the Ironwood Race ruins. This way, it should be harder for anyone to track us!”
“Alright, I’ll follow Master’s lead!” Zhou Tian agreed.
Soon after.
Zhou Tian boarded Ye Tian’s spaceship and set off from the Tianlan Giant City.
This time, Zhou Tian didn’t inform his guards, embarking on the journey alone.
Although loyal, the guards’ so-called loyalty could waver in the face of the Ancient Tree of Life.
Therefore, Zhou Tian only mentioned to his guards that he was going to Tianlan Giant City for a stroll and didn’t have them follow.
Besides, with Ye Tian’s strength, even a Dominator tracking him would be instantly detected.
After confirming no one was following, Ye Tian piloted the spaceship at full speed through the Holy Domain, heading toward other star fields.
A few days later.
Ye Tian traversed several star fields before heading to the Ironwood Race ruins.
The Ironwood Race had been destroyed by the Human Race, but many buildings remained intact.
The Ironwood Race still possessed considerable wealth. Despite the core area being looted by the nine supreme forces and the Supreme Hall of Humanity, other areas still held many treasures.
As a result, many humans came to the Ironwood Race to collect resources and treasures, leading to a large influx of people.
Most of these individuals were of the Great God, Planetary System, or Galaxy levels, with very few humans above the Universal God level.
“We’ve arrived at the Ironwood Race region,” Ye Tian said to Zhou Tian.
“Zhou Tian, let’s head straight to the entrance of that inheritance space,” Ye Tian suggested.
Zhou Tian had already informed him of the exact location, so Ye Tian directly steered the spaceship in that direction.
“Alright,” Zhou Tian nodded.
The spaceship soon arrived outside the Ironwood Continent, the headquarters of the Ironwood Race, and stopped there.
The Ironwood Continent was vast, and its most abundant resource was a type of tree known as Nine-segment Ironwood.
These trees were harder than black iron, very flexible, and had some regenerative abilities, making them ideal for construction.
On the Ironwood Continent, most buildings were made of ironwood, and the Ironwood Race took pride in possessing these resources.
“Zhou Tian, let’s disembark. The spaceship is too conspicuous to enter the Ironwood Continent,” Ye Tian said.
“Yes! Besides, the entrance isn’t far. Master, we can fly there,” Zhou Tian suggested.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Tian stored the spaceship and led Zhou Tian to the entrance of the inheritance space.
Soon, they arrived at an ancient mountain peak with an equally ancient temple.
This temple wasn’t made of ironwood but of ordinary stone. From the temple’s dilapidated interior, it was clear that it had been abandoned for a long time.
“Master, this used to be a shrine, but it was abandoned. The Ironwood Race never realized that this was one of the entrances to the inheritance space. The last time I was here, I accidentally triggered the inheritance mechanism and luckily entered the space,” Zhou Tian explained.
The two of them entered the temple.
Inside the temple stood a deity statue of unknown material.
“Master, it’s this statue. Inside, there’s a small formation. Activating the formation will trigger a detection device. If it deems you suitable, you can enter the inheritance space,” Zhou Tian explained, then used his celestial force to activate the formation within the statue.
A beam of light emerged, illuminating Ye Tian and Zhou Tian.
Ye Tian immediately recognized that this formation tested a person’s potential. If suitable, it would activate deeper formations.
Of course, Ye Tian’s celestial soul strength allowed him to perceive this effortlessly. Otherwise, even a Dominator might not easily detect it. This explained why the Ironwood Race had never discovered it.
This temple was ancient, predating the Ironwood Race’s occupation of the continent. The Ironwood Race didn’t know its history.
Boom! The spatial formation descended! Instantly, Ye Tian and Zhou Tian were drawn in.
Ye Tian could have resisted but chose not to, as entering the inheritance space would be difficult otherwise.
After transitioning through the void, Ye Tian found himself in another world, with Zhou Tian standing beside him.
“Master, we’ve entered!” Zhou Tian exclaimed.
