TL: Etude
In the blink of an eye, tens of millions of years had passed.
In the past, such a period might not have felt particularly long. A Heavenly Monarch could easily spend that amount of ti in a single secluded cultivation session.
However, in the current quasi-Dao Realm, with endless opportunities erging, tens of millions of years had beco a considerable span of ti. Naturally, the changes across the realm were monuntal.
At this mont, Half-Step True Ancestors were abundant in the quasi-Dao Realm! What had once been a seemingly insurmountable barrier for True Monarchs was now easily overco. Many True Monarchs, who in the past could not break through this bottleneck, found themselves advancing to the Half-Step True Ancestor realm through one opportunity after another.
It could be said that almost any force could now effortlessly produce a hundred Half-Step True Ancestors. Even the human race had given rise to several of them.
The human Half-Step True Ancestors achieved their breakthroughs using the innate origin lifeforms bestowed by Ye Tian.
Though the Half-Step True Ancestors who broke through this way had so deficiencies, the human experts didn’t care. After all, they had no hope of becoming Dao Ancestors in the future. If they could attain the True Ancestor realm and beco significant figures, they were more than happy.
In the past, the opportunity to break through to Half-Step True Ancestor would have sparked fierce battles among True Monarchs—enough to even stir the interest of personal disciples of Dao Ancestors!
It was worth ntioning that Ye Tian had spent a trendous fortune to acquire a reincarnation item. It wasn’t a Seed of Reincarnation but a Leaf of Reincarnation, a leaf from the Reincarnation Tree. Though it also granted the effect of reincarnation, it was inferior to the Seed of Reincarnation.
Living beings reborn through the Leaf of Reincarnation had poorer innate talents in their new lives.
However, Ye Tian didn’t care about this at all. Since he could bestow talents as he pleased, the flaw was negligible.
He gave the Leaf of Reincarnation to his younger sister, Ye Yu, allowing her to be reborn. Now, she had cultivated back to the Divine General realm.
anwhile, Ye Tian’s wife, Xiao Yue, had beco a peak-level Heavenly Monarch, with an unimaginably solid foundation. If she hadn’t been focused on establishing the strongest possible foundation, she would have already advanced to the True Monarch realm.
As for Ye Tian himself, he had made significant progress. His soul and the Grand Dao had rged by 33%.
“Unfortunately, the Half-Step True Ancestor realm offers no improvent to physical strength!” Ye Tian sighed.
The Half-Step True Ancestor realm did not enhance divine force or physical prowess; instead, it strengthened the soul. As one’s soul fused more deeply with the Dao, the soul beca ever more powerful, and the control over the body grew more refined. As a result, one’s combat strength beca increasingly terrifying.
For example, Ye Tian’s raw strength hadn’t increased, but his overall combat ability had at least doubled.
“Junior Martial Brother, co join the eting!”
A ssage from True Monarch Dragon Sea reached him.
Upon receiving the ssage, Ye Tian instantly traversed space and arrived at the Void Sky Hall.
The Conference Hall of the Void Sky Hall
In the hall, nearly a thousand Half-Step True Ancestors had gathered. In the past, the Void Sky lineage could never have produced so many Half-Step True Ancestors.
After all, it had taken countless years for even one True Ancestor to erge from the Void Sky lineage. In the sa era, having ten Half-Step True Ancestors at once would have already been considered remarkable.
Yet now, over a thousand Half-Step True Ancestors had gathered in one place. What an awe-inspiring sight this was!
Although Ye Tian and True Monarch Dragon Sea were part of the Void Sky lineage’s upper ranks, neither of them presided over the eting.
Boom!!!
Suddenly, a surge of Dao Ancestor aura erupted.
The next mont, an incarnation of a Dao Ancestor descended.
However, the Dao Ancestor wasn’t Dao Ancestor Void Sky. Dao Ancestor Void Sky’s incarnation remained in seclusion sowhere within an ancient battlefield ruins and had yet to erge. 𝔯𝘈N𝙤ΒΕŜ
The Dao Ancestor who arrived was nad Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin, a personal disciple of Dao Ancestor Void Sky.
Though Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin had already attained the Dao Ancestor realm, Ye Tian could no longer address him as a senior brother. Out of respect, Ye Tian now referred to him as Dao Ancestor.
“Greetings, Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin!”
“Greetings, Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin!”
“Greetings, Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin!”
The assembled Half-Step True Ancestors all bowed in respect.
Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin was a Second Heaven Dao Ancestor. Although his incarnation couldn’t defeat Ye Tian, no one dared to show him disrespect.
After Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin’s incarnation arrived, he scanned the room and announced, “Everyone, the purpose of my arrival is to inform you about a new developnt. According to the investigations of many Dao Ancestors, there are signs of activity from a newly erging ruin within the quasi-Dao Realm. It seems that this ruin will soon appear! However, this site is different from others—it exudes a strange aura, possibly marking it as an ominous place.
Additionally, based on our calculations, Dao Ancestor incarnations will be unable to enter due to restrictions preventing True Ancestors or stronger beings from entering.”
True Monarch Dragon Sea curiously asked, “Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin, if the details of this ruin are unknown, why did you personally co to inform us?”
Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin replied, “Because one of the four transcendent forces’ Fourth Heaven Dao Ancestors has divined that this ruin holds imnse opportunities—true fortunes specifically for you Half-Step True Ancestors.
There is strong reason to believe that the ruin contains Harmony treasures, and not just one, but several! More importantly, these treasures appear to have minimal drawbacks. Your mission is to enter the ruin and seize as many Harmony treasures as possible, so that the Void Sky lineage can nurture more Dao Ancestors.”
“What?! Harmony treasures!!”
The assembled Half-Step True Ancestors were overwheld with excitent.
The Harmony Realm! While they were almost certain to advance to the True Ancestor realm, they had little hope of reaching the Dao Ancestor level.
The Ancestral Stele only granted nine slots for Harmony Realm breakthroughs. How many True Ancestors would compete for those nine slots? Their chances were minuscule!
Other Harmony treasures, such as Ye Tian’s Sky-Splitting Divine Pillar, could also aid in the breakthrough. However, they ca with severe restrictions—those who used them would be bound to the treasure forever.
As a result, these flawed treasures, while tempting for so True Monarchs, were not sothing anyone dared to use lightly.
But treasures without drawbacks—those were priceless! Naturally, everyone desired such treasures.
However, these types of Harmony treasures were exceedingly rare. If anyone had obtained one, they kept it secret.
Now, news of a ruin containing several such treasures was nothing short of a heaven-sent opportunity!
At that mont, Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin issued a solemn warning: “Do not assu that rely entering the ruin will guarantee access to the Harmony treasures. All major factions will be sending their forces, leading to inevitable bloodshed. The risk of death will be significant. Moreover, the ruin may harbor living beings from the Domain Realm. There is even a possibility that you may encounter a forcibly awakened True Ancestor!”
Hearing this, the excitent in the room cooled, and the Half-Step True Ancestors grew serious.
Indeed! Treasures might exist, but without strength, not only would they fail to acquire them, but their lives could also be forfeited.
“Rember,” Dao Ancestor Deep Coffin warned, “this information is for your ears only. You are not allowed to reveal it to anyone below the Half-Step True Ancestor realm or to outsiders.
This opportunity is exclusively for Half-Step True Ancestors.
If True Monarchs or Heavenly Monarchs were allowed in, their sheer numbers could trigger unpredictable changes.
Furthermore, the major factions don’t want to lose too many True Monarchs they worked hard to nurture.
In the last incident at the battlefield ruins, too many True Monarchs perished. Although we’ve recovered sowhat since then, many True Monarchs are advancing too slowly, and the number of top-tier True Monarchs is still lower than before.
Therefore, the major factions are determined to avoid repeating such a loss.”
“Understood!” the crowd responded in unison.
With that, the eting concluded, and the Half-Step True Ancestors dispersed to prepare for the upcoming opportunity.
The chance to beco a Dao Ancestor was before them. Even if it ca with imnse danger, no one was willing to let it slip away.
Naturally, Ye Tian had no intention of missing this chance either. He would also enter that unknown ruin.
TL Note: Harmony ans more literally, “Dao-rging”. Therefore, they’re referring to treasures that can help you rge your Dao and beco a Dao Ancestor.
