Your Talent is Mine

TL: Etude

Standing in the grand hall of the Desolate Tower, Ye Tian surveyed his surroundings.

From Jian Gu’s mouth, he learned that the Desolate Tower had no artifact spirit, which was public knowledge.

Without an artifact spirit to guide him, Ye Tian had to find the opportunities within the Desolate Tower by himself.

Soon, he saw a stone tablet.

The stone tablet had some text on it, written in very ancient characters. Although Ye Tian had never seen them before, he could understand them.

“Desolate Tower!”

Ye Tian saw that the tablet mentioned both the Desolate Tower and the Desolate Realm. It was evident that the names of the Desolate Tower and the Desolate Realm originated from this stone tablet.

The tablet described the situation of the Desolate Tower and the Desolate Realm, and the information left Ye Tian utterly astonished.

Ye Tian was extremely shocked.

He had always thought that the Desolate Realm was a world, and many people in the outside world probably believed the same.

As for whether the Supremes knew some information, he was not very sure.

But now, from this stone tablet, Ye Tian learned about the situation of the Desolate Realm.

The Desolate Realm was actually a storage space equipment that surpassed the Strongest Supreme Treasure level, possessing many special abilities, and even containing the world’s origin.

It could be regarded as a World Supreme Treasure. Although it had no direct offensive power, its defensive capability surpassed the most terrifying defensive Strongest Supreme Treasures. Even the most powerful Supremes could not break the Desolate Realm.

“No wonder neither the Immortal Race nor the Demon Race could do anything about the Desolate Realm. If they could destroy the Desolate Realm, they would probably be willing to do so. After all, without the Desolate Realm, the combat power of those Innate Deities in the Desolate Realm would drop by a level, making them equivalent to an ordinary large cosmic race.” Ye Tian thought to himself.

Moreover, the Desolate Realm was not a product of this universe but was created by the Innate Desolate Race.

As for what the Innate Desolate Race was, Ye Tian was not clear. However, he speculated that the Innate Desolate Race should be a race from a previous cosmic epoch, long extinct in the great cosmic destruction like other epochs.

And the Desolate Realm was the only supreme treasure they left behind, passed down to the present.

The tablet also mentioned the Desolate Tower! The Desolate Tower was a Strongest Supreme Treasure, though not as powerful as the Desolate Realm, it carried numerous opportunities left by the Innate Desolate Race.

Additionally, the Desolate Tower only allowed the innate beings of the Desolate Realm to enter because the Innate Desolate Race was a race of innate beings. They did not permit acquired beings to enter, to prevent the opportunities meant for innate beings from being taken by outsiders.

“No wonder, the Desolate Tower was actually designed for the opportunities of those Innate Deities. But the Innate Desolate Race did not expect that the Innate Deities of this generation of the Desolate Realm would create the Desolate Demons. The Desolate Demons could also harness the power of the Desolate Realm, equating to having the abilities of innate beings, causing the Desolate Tower to mistakenly recognize the Desolate Demons as Innate Deities.

And I, who copied the Desolate Mark talent, could also harness the power of the Desolate Realm.”

Ye Tian thought to himself.

One could say this was a loophole in the Desolate Tower.

Furthermore, the tablet also mentioned that the opportunities of the Desolate Tower required potential and combat power. The lower the cultivation level, the higher the potential. If Supremes came here, their potential would be almost exhausted, making it difficult to obtain good opportunities.

This was why the Desolate Demons were to accumulate enough before entering the Desolate Tower, otherwise, it would be a waste of an opportunity.

This stone tablet was actually also an entrance, an entrance to the assessment.

Ye Tian placed his hands on the stone tablet, mobilized a trace of the Desolate Realm’s origin, and integrated it into the stone tablet.

Boom!!!! The stone tablet vibrated, slowly revealing a spatial entrance.

Swish! Ye Tian stepped into this spatial entrance, heading to the depths of the tower.

In a mysterious space.

A ray of light shone on Ye Tian, seemingly measuring something.

Soon, a few minutes passed.

A virtual light screen appeared in front of Ye Tian, with a line of words written on it.

“Potential: Supreme!”

Ye Tian wasn’t entirely clear about the divisions of potential in the Desolate Tower, but supreme potential was undoubtedly very high, possibly even the highest level.

Ye Tian had always been confident in his own potential.

After the potential test ended, another portal appeared.

Immediately, Ye Tian entered this portal and arrived on a vast land.

Boom, boom, boom!!! A surge of primordial aura flooded towards him.

Next, Ye Tian saw a gigantic divine elephant stepping on the ground, each step causing the earth to tremble, with endless laws of earth rippling through the heavens and earth.

Its aura suppressed the world, like a prison-guarding divine elephant from hell, crushing all realms.

“So powerful!” Ye Tian exclaimed.

Of course, he meant powerful for the God level, as this divine elephant only had Great God-level cultivation. Its cultivation wasn’t strong, but its combat power was incredibly terrifying for its level.

In other words, even a peak Planetary System-level Desolate Demon would find it extremely difficult to defeat this divine elephant, because Ye Tian realized that in this space, he couldn’t mobilize the power of the Desolate Realm and had to rely solely on his own combat strength.

Boom!

The divine elephant had already attacked Ye Tian, its foot crushing down like the sky collapsing.

“Slash!” Ye Tian didn’t even draw his saber, using his hand as a substitute, he slashed out with a hand blade.

With a splutter, the divine elephant was split in half by Ye Tian, dissipating into the heavens and earth.

Then, a second divine elephant appeared, its cultivation elevated to the first stage of the Planetary System level, but it was still easily slain by Ye Tian.

One divine elephant after another came to test Ye Tian’s combat strength, and soon a peak Planetary System-level divine elephant appeared.

But against Ye Tian, even a divine elephant of this level was not sufficient.

“Slash!” Ye Tian slashed the divine elephant again.

Boom!!!! Another divine elephant descended, this time it was a first-stage Galaxy-level divine elephant, its power increased many times over.

But this divine elephant still couldn’t match Ye Tian and was thoroughly crushed by him.

Second stage Galaxy-level! Third stage Galaxy-level! Fourth stage Galaxy-level!

As the divine elephant’s cultivation and combat power increased, Ye Tian gradually became more serious.

Finally,

A peak Galaxy-level divine elephant appeared, its combat power even surprising Ye Tian, making him use all his strength to fight it. This battle lasted for a long time.

In terms of attack power, this divine elephant was not as strong as Ye Tian, but its defense was terrifying. Ye Tian found it somewhat difficult to inflict severe damage on this divine elephant.

In a flash, half a day passed.

Through countless clashes, Ye Tian finally relied on his enduring combat capability to exhaust the divine elephant’s strength before defeating it.

“The next one should be a Universal God-level divine elephant, I surely won’t be a match for it!” Ye Tian thought.

Suddenly.

The sky darkened, and a gigantic elephant foot came crushing down. Even Ye Tian’s full-force attack couldn’t leave a mark on it.

Boom!!! The scene shifted, and Ye Tian found himself transported to another place.

His assessment had ended! It was clear he hadn’t been able to defeat the Universal God-level divine elephant and was deemed a failure, thus transported away.

At this moment.

Ye Tian found himself back in front of the stone tablet. His assessment was over, and his reward should soon arrive!
