Chapter 1269: The Devourer Race Meeting!
TL: Etude
Another reason Palace Master Thunder Tribulation did not dare to renege was due to the immense power of Blackwind Mountain, which indeed surpassed even their Heavenly Emperor Palace! Putting aside the incomparably mysterious Mountain Master Wind Mountain, just Ye Tian and Dao Ancestor Jinchen alone possessed the battle strength of Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors! Heavenly Emperor Palace similarly had only two Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors, and neither of them were a match for Mountain Master Wind Mountain. If a conflict broke out because of breaking their promise, Heavenly Emperor Palace would be severely disadvantaged against Blackwind Mountain.
Moreover, it was merely fifty quotas for the Ultimate Ancient Origin Lake; this wasn’t some enormous opportunity, so yielding was acceptable.
“Fine, I’ll grant you fifty quotas!” Palace Master Thunder Tribulation agreed.
“Hahaha, many thanks, Palace Master Thunder Tribulation!” Ye Tian was extremely pleased.
Shortly after, Ye Tian flew over to where the Half-Step Domain Ancestors of Blackwind Mountain were.
At this moment, these Half-Step Domain Ancestors saw Ye Tian with completely different gazes, each filled with admiration.
Especially Dao Ancestor Jinchen—his perspective on Ye Tian had changed dramatically.
Previously, Ye Tian possessed only the battle strength of an All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestor. Yet, possessing the battle strength of a Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor was on an entirely different level! Once Ye Tian broke through to the Half-Step Domain Ancestor level, his fighting strength would be terrifying, undoubtedly surpassing even Dao Ancestor Jinchen himself!
“Dao Ancestor of Ten Thousand Laws, your strength is truly formidable. With an Invincible Dao Ancestor cultivation, you actually possess the battle strength of a Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor!” Dao Ancestor Jinchen exclaimed in astonishment.
“My strength isn’t strong enough yet—I must continue to grow stronger!” Ye Tian said modestly.
“Must continue to grow stronger…” Dao Ancestor Jinchen was genuinely shaken by this.
At his current level, advancing further was extremely difficult. Although, given an extremely long time, he could eventually reach the pinnacle of Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestor, or perhaps even advance to Domain Ancestor level after countless years.
However…such a timeframe was simply too prolonged. He wasn’t even confident he could avoid accidents along the way, potentially dying in a random battle.
Therefore, he had little ambition left toward increasing his strength.
Thus, upon hearing Ye Tian’s words, he felt truly dispirited.
“Let the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors and Invincible Dao Ancestors enter the Ultimate Ancient Origin Lake!” Dao Ancestor Jinchen declared.
Immediately, fifty Pinnacle Dao Ancestors from the Human Race, along with several Pinnacle and Invincible Dao Ancestors from Blackwind Mountain, entered the Origin Lake within the Ultimate Ancient Realm Tree. Likewise, the Pinnacle and Invincible Dao Ancestors from Heavenly Emperor Palace also entered.
As for the Pinnacle Dao Ancestors of other forces, they had no qualification to enter unless they could contend with the Half-Step Domain Ancestors of Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain.
But they could not compete, and thus missed out on this opportunity.
Of course.
They could still cultivate nearby. The amplifying effects of the Ultimate Ancient Realm Tree ensured cultivation here was far faster than elsewhere.
The only regret was that the Ultimate Ancient Realm Fruit of the Ultimate Ancient Realm Tree had yet to mature.
Otherwise, they might have had a chance to fight over the Ultimate Ancient Realm Fruit.
Time passed bit by bit. One by one, Pinnacle Dao Ancestors and Invincible Dao Ancestors successfully condensed Ultimate Ancient Realm Bodies inside the Origin Lake within the Ultimate Ancient Realm Tree. Their strengths surged dramatically, and afterward, they emerged from the tree.
About three years had passed before all the Pinnacle and Invincible Dao Ancestors exited. By now, the Origin Energy within the Ultimate Ancient Origin Lake had almost been depleted, with barely enough left for about ten more people to condense their Ultimate Ancient Realm Bodies.
The Heavenly Emperor Palace and Blackwind Mountain looked down upon this small amount of Origin Energy and thus allowed other forces to compete for it.
As for which forces would claim this last portion of energy, neither of the two powers cared.
…
Devourer Realm.
Ye Tian’s Copy Body still held the identity of Teng Feng, continuing his spy duties here. Normally, he just slept, rarely wandering around to avoid arousing suspicion among the other Devourers.
One day.
A message arrived suddenly, ordering all Devourers to attend a meeting. This command came directly from the highest-ranking members of the Devourer Race.
At the Devourer Divine Palace located in the center of the Devourer Realm.
One after another, Devourers gathered here—around one hundred and sixty in total. Ye Tian’s identity here was merely an Invincible Dao Ancestor, so he could only sit quietly in a corner.
Suddenly.
Four towering Devourers descended. These four were Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors of the Devourer Race. Moreover, they weren’t mere ordinary entrants to this realm—they were top-tier Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors.
Of course, they might not necessarily be stronger than Palace Master Dragon Shadow since their combat methods were rather limited. Their cultivations were high, but their actual combat capabilities weren’t particularly outstanding.
Yet, four Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors were already terrifying. Coupled with roughly twenty All-Things Half-Step Domain Ancestors, this alone indicated how fearsome the Devourer Race truly was. Moreover, this might not even represent their entire strength. There might still be other powerful Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors or perhaps even a Domain Ancestor hidden within their ranks!
The four Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors of the Devourer Race were respectfully titled Imperial Ancestors. They were:
Imperial Ancestor White Deer, Imperial Ancestor Bloodshed, Imperial Ancestor War, and Imperial Ancestor Wanzhen.
These four Imperial Ancestors held extremely high status within the Devourer Race due to their current immense power. Naturally, none of the other Devourers dared to oppose them—because if provoked, killing was the simplest solution.
After all, competition within the Devourer Race was intense. It was only because the worlds these four Imperial Ancestors required were of higher quality that ordinary universes and worlds didn’t interest them. Otherwise, how could these lower-ranking Devourers still survive until now?
Seeing that most of the clansmen had arrived, Imperial Ancestor White Deer spoke:
“Everyone, the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm has emerged within the domain. Its origin is comparable to that of a Domain Realm. If we devour the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm, each of the four of us Unity Realm Devourers has a chance of becoming a Domain Ancestor. We promise that all worlds inside this Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm will be left entirely to you. The four of us Imperial Ancestors will only devour the Origin of the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm. In addition, the domain still has countless worlds, universes, and Chaos Continents, which are more than sufficient for you all to devour.”
“Imperial Ancestor, should we attack the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm right away, or allow them to develop further?” Killwind asked.
“No, we won’t let them develop further. If they grow many times stronger, things would become difficult for us. We’ll strike first while they remain weak. At worst, we won’t completely annihilate them; we’ll only kill their top-tier existences and spare the rest, allowing them to continue creating Dao Realms within the domain and forever serve us!” Imperial Ancestor Bloodshed said cruelly with a smile.
Ye Tian watched this scene unfold, finding it quite amusing.
These Devourers clearly hadn’t done their research. Currently, the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm had at least four or more Unity Half-Step Domain Ancestors. If they attacked recklessly, they would undoubtedly suffer heavy losses.
Of course, the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm would likely suffer even more.
As for who would emerge victorious, it was difficult to determine for now.
However, in terms of the number of Half-Step Domain Ancestors alone, the Profound Void Ultimate Ancient Realm was undoubtedly at a disadvantage.
