Chapter 141: Dawn-level Cultivation Talent!
TL: Etude
Ye Tian, once reaching the pinnacle of the King level, would have a physical strength of 10,000 elephant power. With Yuan force amplification, it would be 20,000 elephants of force. His pseudo-mystic-level strength talent would amplify it by 30 times, and his silver-level blade technique, Heavenly Extreme Slash, would add another 12 times. Combining all these, Ye Tian's maximum attack power would reach 7.2 million elephants, which translates to 7.2 Dragon Power.
"I'll only have 7.2 Dragon Power after reaching the pinnacle of the King level. How did the Battle Axe Emperor reach 8.2 Dragon Power at the King level?" This was the first time Ye Tian felt outclassed in terms of talent.
However, he wasn't disheartened but rather excited. If he could copy the Battle Axe Emperor's talent, his strength would skyrocket. He speculated that the Battle Axe Emperor must possess a pseudo-mystic-level, perhaps even a mystic-level strength talent by now, and a top-tier battle axe talent, considering his fame for using an axe.
Ye Tian then checked the King-level Strongest Defense Record and realized he couldn't break it either.
[The strongest King-realm defense record. Proven to withstand the power of 2 dragons without being seriously injured: Qin Feng! 】
A King-level peak martial warrior could withstand an attack of their own strength level, which is 20,000 elephant power. With Ye Tian's 50 times amplification from his pseudo-mystic-level defense talent, he could withstand 1 Dragon Power. If he also had the pseudo-mystic-level Bone Talent, he could potentially withstand 1.5 times the attack without serious injury. But to break the record, he would need to replicate another powerful pseudo-mystic-level defense talent.
Ye Tian found he couldn't break the other records either. "There are quite a few freaks in the Zhonghai Super Base. This is good; it means more excellent talents for me to copy!" He laughed, planning to copy these talents and eventually break these records. But he decided not to be too ostentatious and break only two or three records to save others' faces.
With no immediate way to break any records, Ye Tian left the War God Tower. "The cooldown for my copy talent has ended. I can copy two more talents now. It's a waste of time to wait outside the War God Tower; I should head directly to the Loose Cultivators Alliance headquarters. There should be some good talents there."
Arriving at the Loose Cultivators Alliance headquarters, which wasn't far from the War God Tower, Ye Tian began his search. The Loose Cultivators Alliance headquarters was a massive complex, occupying over ten square kilometers and comprising ten floors.
While exploring the first floor, Ye Tian sensed two Moonlight-level talents but only copied one, as he needed just one more to upgrade his own. After about half an hour, he finished exploring the Loose Cultivators Alliance headquarters, finding only two Moonlight-level talents.
"Morning Star-level cultivators have a 70-80% chance of reaching the Saint level. With a perfect foundation, it's almost guaranteed. Moonlight-level cultivators have a similar chance of reaching the Emperor level. With my perfect foundation and Moonlight-level talent, I have a one in ten chance of reaching the Emperor level. The strongest in the Zhonghai Super Base are just Emperors, likely without Dawn-level cultivation talents. Thus, the best cultivation talent in the Zhonghai Super Base is probably only at the Moonlight level."
From this, Ye Tian deduced that Moonlight-level cultivation talents were extremely rare in the Zhonghai Super Base, with even the Loose Cultivators Alliance having very few. Even accounting for the branches and those outside, the total number wouldn't exceed double digits.
"Having said that, after my recent venture, I have fused with the Moonlight-level cultivation talent. Now, my talent must have suddenly become the strongest at the Zhonghai Super Base!" Ye Tian thought to himself with quiet elation.
This was a record in itself, a pity that the War God Stele didn't keep such records. Even if it did, he wouldn't dare reveal his talent!
"There's still one more chance to copy!"
Ye Tian decided to look further, ideally for a pseudo-mystic level talent. However, he only found two pseudo-mystic level talents that he didn't need.
One was a pseudo-mystic level Fire Domain talent, and the other was a pseudo-mystic level Water Dragon talent.
Neither of these pseudo-mystic level talents were of much use to him; he wasn't very satisfied. "Well, I'll just copy the pseudo-mystic level Fire Domain talent. Consider it an extra skill," he thought.
With a single thought, the pseudo-mystic level Fire Domain talent was copied by Ye Tian.
"Time to head home!"
Ye Tian didn't linger at the headquarters of the Loose Cultivators Alliance. There were indeed many treasures here, but they were out of his trading range, which was quite embarrassing.
Once home, Ye Tian first integrated the pseudo-mystic level Fire Domain talent and quickly understood its nature.
This talent was quite impressive; it was an area-of-effect attack that could turn dozens of kilometers around into a fiery domain. Any living being within it would be subjected to relentless fire attacks.
"It's a decent talent, covering one of my weaknesses, and it's a three-fold pseudo-mystic level talent at that!" Ye Tian mused.
He then began integrating the Moonlight-level cultivation talent.
Boom!
Unbearable pain engulfed him, yet Ye Tian reveled in it.
"Bring it on, Dawn-level cultivation talent!" he shouted in his heart.
Wave after wave of pain hit him, turning his skin as red as a boiled lobster.
After an unknown duration, Ye Tian finally regained consciousness. He had actually fainted.
"A bit embarrassing, I thought I could endure it!" Ye Tian's face blushed, but it was already red.
Nonetheless, fainting didn't affect the integration of the talent, which was a success.
[Cultivation talent: Dawn level]
Looking at the Dawn-level cultivation talent, Ye Tian laughed excitedly.
"Hahaha, I'm finally on the same level as Xiao Xue! Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for me, the master, to be only at Moonlight-level while Xiao Xue is at Dawn-level!" Ye Tian laughed.
Sadly, he couldn't share this glory with Xiao Xue, who was in slumber.
According to Xiao Xue, it was about to transform from its juvenile phase to its youth phase. Only then would its Dawn-level bloodline talent start to unfold, increasing its cultivation speed by who knows how much.
"I can't wait to try out the cultivation speed of the Dawn-level talent!" Ye Tian was eager to start.
