TL: Etude
When the forbidden bloodline creature fell, everyone began to divide the Blood Lake.
The Invincible Dao Ancestors took a larger share, while the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors received less. Ye Tian received slightly less than the Invincible Dao Ancestors, but he had no complaints.
However, as the Blood Lake gradually dried up, revealing a treasure at its bottom, the situation changed instantly.
At the bottom of the Blood Lake lay nurous black-red crystals, exuding faint life energy and the force of forbidden rules.
“These are blood crystals ford from the solidified blood of forbidden lifeforms. It takes countless years for such forbidden blood crystals to form! A single forbidden blood crystal is equivalent to a low-grade Forbidden Weapon!” one Dao Ancestor exclaid in shock.
Forbidden blood crystals were transcendent objects, immune to the rules of perception, making them undetectable by divine sense. Earlier, despite probing the bottom of the lake with their divine senses, no one had discovered the forbidden blood crystals.
Everyone’s gaze swept over the area, revealing more than sixty forbidden blood crystals. However, the combined number of Pinnacle and Invincible Dao Ancestors present far exceeded sixty!
“These forbidden blood crystals belong to us!” one Invincible Dao Ancestor declared domineeringly.
His aning was clear: the Invincible Dao Ancestors would take these forbidden blood crystals, and the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors had to leave.
“Why should we agree to that?” a top-tier Pinnacle Dao Ancestor protested indignantly.
“Because of strength!” the Invincible Dao Ancestors replied coldly.
Suddenly, one of the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors could no longer contain himself. He darted into the lake at the fastest speed, attempting to seize the forbidden blood crystals.
His desire for the forbidden blood crystals was overwhelming! Though forbidden blood crystals were often compared to low-grade Forbidden Weapons, that was only in the Vast Sea Domain where Forbidden Weapons were exceedingly rare. In the Profound Void Archaic Realm, forbidden wondrous objects were abundant, making the crafting of Forbidden Weapons relatively less challenging.
Currently, trading a low-grade Forbidden Weapon for a forbidden blood crystal was wishful thinking. Furthermore, even in the Vast Sea Domain, few would exchange forbidden blood crystals for Forbidden Weapons due to their imnse utility.
Forbidden blood crystals could repair origin injuries, an invaluable function for many Pinnacle Dao Ancestors unable to ascend to Invincible Dao Ancestor status due to such injuries.
Additionally, forbidden blood crystals were among the best cultivation treasures for enhancing Dark Forbidden Power. They could even enable Seventh Heaven Dao Ancestors to master Dark Forbidden Power, demonstrating their extraordinary value. If not for their overwhelmingly potent energy, which True Ancestors could not withstand, forbidden blood crystals would also be supre treasures for True Ancestors, allowing them to wield Dark Forbidden Power at their level.
“Haha! If I can seize so forbidden blood crystals, I’ll be able to repair my past origin injuries! My Dark Forbidden Power will grow exponentially, and my Forbidden Body will advance to the minor accomplishnt realm or even major accomplishnt realm. My strength will skyrocket!” Pinnacle Dao Ancestor You Ming exclaid in excitent.
Yet, just as he reached the lake bottom and was about to seize a forbidden blood crystal, a streak of crimson light pierced through his body, killing him instantly.
The one who struck was none other than the Invincible Dao Ancestor from the Limitless Sky Sect—Dao Ancestor Wushuang.
“Dao Ancestor Wushuang, why did you kill You Ming Dao Ancestor from our Heavenly Demon Sect? You could have rely wounded him; there was no need to take his life!” the Invincible Dao Ancestor from the Heavenly Demon Sect, Dao Ancestor Kuhe, roared in anger.
The Heavenly Demon Sect was an Eighth Heaven force. While it previously lacked an Invincible Dao Ancestor, its alliance with the Heavenly Emperor Palace during this period allowed it to give rise to one—Dao Ancestor Kuhe.
Despite this, the Heavenly Demon Sect had yet to ascend to a Ninth Heaven force due to the Heavenly Emperor Palace raising the threshold for Ninth Heaven forces. Now, a force required at least ten Pinnacle Dao Ancestors and three Invincible Dao Ancestors to qualify, leaving the Heavenly Demon Sect still classified as an Eighth Heaven force.
In fact, other Eighth Heaven forces, such as Vajra City and the Heavenly Sword Sect, had also produced Ninth Heaven Invincible Dao Ancestors. However, with only a single Invincible Dao Ancestor each, their strength remained unimpressive, insufficient even to rival Ye Tian.
“If he dares to seize the forbidden blood crystals, then he deserves to die!” Dao Ancestor Wushuang said coldly.
Suddenly.
Soone noticed a forbidden blood crystal disappearing, followed by another.
“Damn it! Soone is stealing the forbidden blood crystals!” Dao Ancestor Wushuang was enraged.
Boom!!!
The powers of countless Invincible Dao Ancestors extended into the depths of the lake, attempting to uncover the unknown individual responsible.
However, they found nothing.
In a very short span of ti, nearly fifty Forbidden Blood Crystals vanished without a trace.
At this point, they no longer cared to investigate further and directly dove into the lakebed, starting an all-out battle to seize the remaining Forbidden Blood Crystals.
Before long, the Forbidden Blood Crystals were completely taken.
At this mont.
Ye Tian, accompanied by Ye Xingchen and Ye Xingyue, had already left. They did not participate in the battle over the Forbidden Blood Crystals.
However, Ye Tian was imnsely pleased.
…
Elsewhere, the Dark King and Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire were gathered together.
Upon eting, Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire transmitted his voice, “Dark King, it must have been you who took the Forbidden Blood Crystals earlier.”
“Why would Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire think it was ?” Ye Tian responded with a smile.
“That concealnt thod, only you have ever displayed it. Not even the Invincible Dao Ancestors could detect it. Moreover, you were notably absent at the scene just now, so I am certain it was you!” Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire declared.
“I won’t admit to anything!” Ye Tian replied with a grin.
He wasn’t foolish—if he admitted to it, and Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire spread the news, it might not be a good outco.
Although Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire and he belonged to the sa faction, being from the sa force didn’t eliminate scheming or competition.
“Not admitting it ans it’s not true then.” Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire chuckled lightly.
If it had been an ordinary Pinnacle Dao Ancestor from Blackwind Mountain, he could have employed threats or temptations to acquire a few Forbidden Blood Crystals at a ager price.
But the Dark King was far too powerful, a Pinnacle Dao Ancestor who had slain commander-level forbidden insects. Even Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire wasn’t certain he could win against the Dark King.
If the Dark King had admitted to taking the Forbidden Blood Crystals, Dao Ancestor Flowing Fire might have used their connection to negotiate for a few.
But since the Dark King denied it, there was nothing he could do.
At this mont.
The World of Fire still held many treasures, but neither the Invincible Dao Ancestors nor most Pinnacle Dao Ancestors showed interest in lingering there. Instead, they hastily made their way to the World of Wood.
The World of Wood was a realm composed entirely of countless trees. The quantity of forbidden wondrous objects in this world exceeded that of the World of Fire.
Upon arriving in the World of Wood, Ye Tian and his group imdiately began collecting forbidden wondrous objects.
Before long, most of the forbidden wondrous objects in the area had been collected.
However, it wasn’t long before soone discovered a fragnt of the Forbidden Continent in the World of Wood. On this fragnt grew a Forbidden Spiritual Root Tree—a top-grade Forbidden Spiritual Root Tree, of imasurable value.
As a result, nurous Invincible Dao Ancestors stord into that fragnt of the Forbidden Continent.
