Your Talent is Mine

Another half year had passed.

Ye Tian had lost count of the number of Creatures of Destruction he had slain on the Universal God Battlefield. Although he had been in constant battle, the battlefield had posed no real pressure for him.

“Recently, there have been significantly fewer Creatures of Destruction. It seems that the turmoil in the Abyss of Destruction should be subdued soon,” Ye Tian thought to himself.

Immediately, he glanced at his four teammates.

At this moment, all four of them looked exhausted. After all, they had been fighting continuously for half a year, and had often been surrounded by countless Creatures of Destruction of the Universal God level. Despite being under Ye Tian’s protection, they still endured considerable pressure.

However, no matter what, they had survived.

On this day, Ye Tian and his team received news that the first batch of Universal Gods could withdraw from the battlefield, to be replaced by the second batch of Universal Gods.

The myriad races did not intend to treat the first batch of Universal Gods as cannon fodder, considering the prolonged battle had taken a toll on their mental and physical states. Additionally, resource scarcity had become an issue after such a long period of combat.

Therefore, the first batch of Universal Gods, with their limited combat power, could leave the battlefield and return to their respective races.

“Finally, the day of our return has come!” the Seven Swords True Lord exclaimed with relief.

Immediately, he asked Ye Tian, “Lord True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws, are you returning to the Human race?”

“No,” Ye Tian shook his head, “I plan to enter the Dominator-level battlefield.”

“What? Lord True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws, the Dominator-level battlefield is far too dangerous. You’ll face numerous Dominator-level Creatures of Destruction!” the Seven Swords True Lord and others tried to dissuade him.

“Don’t worry, I’m confident,” Ye Tian replied with a faint smile.

Seeing this, the Seven Swords True Lord and the others said no more. Besides, they had no right to persuade him.

Moreover, they were unaware of Ye Tian’s true combat strength. Even when surrounded by countless Creatures of Destruction, Ye Tian could still break through the encirclement. Perhaps their concerns were unnecessary.

A few days later, the Seven Swords True Lord and other Universal Gods left the battlefield and returned to the Human race.

A new batch of Universal Gods arrived on the battlefield.

Ye Tian stepped into the Dominator-level battlefield and encountered some Dominators.

They were surprised by Ye Tian’s arrival. Some Dominators advised him to leave, but Ye Tian mostly ignored them.

Not long after, Ye Tian encountered his first Dominator-level Creature of Destruction.

Without a word, the battle commenced.

Ye Tian easily slew the Dominator-level Creature of Destruction and continued searching for others.

Although Ye Tian’s cultivation was at the peak of the Universal God level and his combat strength did not reach the Heavenly Venerable level, he was formidable enough to dominate at the Dominator level. Therefore, he had no worries about encountering danger on the Dominator-level battlefield.

Unless he was extremely unlucky and encountered a Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction.

However, if a Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction appeared on the Dominator-level battlefield, a Heavenly Venerable or Supreme Venerable would arrive to deal with it and eliminate the threat.

Thus, the likelihood of Ye Tian being unlucky was slim.

Boom! Boom! Boom! A terrifying ripple of energy emanated from the distant horizon.

“This is…” Ye Tian’s pupils contracted.

It was unmistakably the aura of a Heavenly Venerable, filled with destructive energy.

Evidently, it was a Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction.

Moreover, this Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction was heading straight toward him.

If he could sense the creature’s presence, it was certain that the creature could also sense his aura.

“It must be a battle!” Ye Tian speculated.

If he fled now, the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction might not necessarily pursue him. However, if he left, the Dominators engaged in battle might face danger and even fall. He was not known for his mercy, but abandoning others in the midst of a fight was not his style.

Besides, couldn’t a Heavenly Venerable be dealt with?

“My Death Flower Queen, after my efforts, has reached the peak of the Universal God level. The Death Flower Queen can cultivate a sea of death flowers formed by countless Universal God-level death flowers, enough to withstand the attacks of a Heavenly Venerable. Although I can’t defeat a Heavenly Venerable, they can’t kill me in one strike!” Ye Tian thought to himself.

With that, he flew over.

Soon, he saw the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction and those fighting against it.

“It’s them!” Ye Tian was slightly surprised.

These fighters were not Dominators but were the Children of the Era from the Twelve Universal Eras, about twenty of them in total. They weren’t all the Children of the Era, just a small portion. They had formed a battle team and were using a top-tier supreme treasure to resist the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction.

Even so, they couldn’t hold back a Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction. The real reason they hadn’t been defeated yet was a puppet, a binding-type Heavenly Venerable-level puppet.

In front of the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction, a massive puppet with a ten-thousand-yard tall body released countless golden threads that bound the Creature of Destruction, restricting its movements. Otherwise, those Children of the Era would have been doomed long ago.

“I didn’t expect they had a Heavenly Venerable-level puppet!” Ye Tian was a bit astonished.

Among the myriad races, he had never heard of a Heavenly Venerable-level puppet. Even if such puppets existed, they would at least require a Heavenly Venerable to control them. Yet now, a group of Universal Gods could control a Heavenly Venerable-level puppet, which was unprecedented.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t fully utilize the puppet’s power and couldn’t defeat the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction. They could barely hold on. Now, the puppet was covered in cracks and clearly wouldn’t last much longer.

“True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws, we request your help!” one of the Children of the Era pleaded.

Ye Tian immediately recognized the speaker—it was Aurora, the Child of the Era who had fought him before.

“Didn’t you call for reinforcements?” Ye Tian asked.

“We did, but just recently, a group of Supreme-level Creatures of Destruction emerged from the Abyss of Destruction, doubling the pressure on the Supreme-level battlefield. No Supreme or Heavenly Venerable can come to support us in the short term. Please, True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws, let go of past grievances and help us deal with this Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction,” Aurora pleaded.

“Alright!” Ye Tian nodded.

Immediately, he charged towards the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction.

“True Lord of Ten Thousand Laws, come over here and help us maintain the formation! Charging in alone will get you killed!” Aurora shouted in alarm.

However, it was too late. Ye Tian had already charged ahead.

The Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction, seeing a Universal God-level ant attacking, condensed a spear and thrust it at Ye Tian.

With a thud, the spear pierced through Ye Tian’s body, but he seemed indifferent. He activated the third form of the Tiangang Battle Technique along with the Chaos Heaven Saber, slashing fiercely at the Creature of Destruction.

With a thunderous boom, a crack appeared on the Heavenly Venerable-level Creature of Destruction’s body. Although it wasn’t a severe wound, it was a genuine injury.

After delivering this strike, Ye Tian immediately retreated.

His wounds quickly healed, leaving him completely unscathed.

“How is this possible?” Aurora and the other Children of the Era were utterly stunned by the scene.

By all rights, a Heavenly Venerable’s strike should have killed Ye Tian. But what was happening now?
