Chapter 1261: Primordial Sacred Body!

Your Talent is Mine

TL: Etude

Human Realm.

Ye Tian began organizing the treasures and resources obtained from the Devourer Race. The cultivation resources alone were sufficient for the Human Race to nurture at least ten Invincible Dao Ancestors.

There were also numerous treasures that were difficult to identify, each possessing enormous value.

Moreover, Ye Tian had also acquired a complete Forbidden Stele.

Back then, when Ouyang Jiu’er had gifted him a fragment of a Forbidden Stele, Ye Tian had been incredibly excited and even managed to comprehend the Forbidden Dao from it.

Now, the value of an intact Forbidden Stele was unimaginably immense.

It was precisely because the Devourer Race did not cultivate nor comprehend the Forbidden Dao that, to them, the Forbidden Stele was nothing more than an ordinary stone tablet used for recording text. They didn’t consider it a treasure at all—no different from how an ordinary person viewed a common stone tablet.

Immediately, Ye Tian placed the Forbidden Stele within the sacred hall of the Human Race. Apart from the Human Race Guardians, who could comprehend it freely, it was open only to the race’s higher-ups and geniuses, who were required to pay a certain price.

In the following days, Ye Tian continuously appraised those mysterious treasures, and almost every day brought a major surprise.

Several months later, Ye Tian picked up that mysterious piece of black paper and began studying it.

He tried damaging the paper but couldn’t even leave the slightest mark.

Clearly, this paper was extremely extraordinary.

“The Devourer Race studied this paper for countless ages without discovering its secrets. Regular appraisal methods definitely won’t work!” Ye Tian thought.

Thus, he attempted to infuse the power of the Forbidden Dao into the paper.

Since the Devourer Race did not master the Forbidden Dao, perhaps this approach would reveal the paper’s true use.

Boom!!

As the power of the Forbidden Dao entered the black paper, the paper quickly began to transform. Lines of characters suddenly appeared on its surface.

These characters followed the power of Ye Tian’s Forbidden Dao, spreading into his body and being absorbed by his soul.

Soon, a technique appeared clearly in Ye Tian’s soul memory.

“Primordial Sacred Body!”

This was a technique describing a certain method to condense a Sacred Body.

If one merely looked at the name, Primordial Sacred Body seemed no different from the physiques cultivated in the Dao Mountain Domain.

However, it wasn’t just any ordinary physique, but rather a type of Forbidden Body physique.

Normally, there wasn’t much fundamental difference between the Forbidden Bodies possessed by Pinnacle Dao Ancestors and Invincible Dao Ancestors.

However, a Sacred Body was essentially a high-tier version of a Forbidden Body—and the Primordial Sacred Body was exactly that, a top-grade Forbidden Body physique.

Even at the same 90% refinement level, a Primordial Sacred Body could absolutely crush an ordinary Forbidden Body; the two simply couldn’t be compared.

“How could such an inheritance technique like the Primordial Sacred Body exist in the previous cultivation era? Even Blackwind Mountain definitely didn’t possess a Sacred Body method like this!” Ye Tian muttered to himself.

If Blackwind Mountain had possessed such a Sacred Body technique, it would’ve long been granted to those Invincible Dao Ancestors.

Even the Half-Step Domain Ancestors he knew had only ordinary Forbidden Bodies, nothing particularly powerful. Clearly, even Divine Heaven Domain might not necessarily have Sacred Body techniques. Even if it did, these methods would be in the hands of only a few Domain Ancestors, unwilling to pass them down lightly.

“Perhaps this Sacred Body inheritance floated in from the depths of the Dark Forbidden Domain during the previous cultivation era,” Ye Tian speculated.

If the cultivators from the previous era had truly cultivated the Primordial Sacred Body, perhaps they could have contended with the Devourer Race. Unfortunately, this Sacred Body inheritance was too difficult and dangerous to cultivate, rivaling the risk a Half-Step True Ancestor would face when attempting to grasp the Dark Forbidden Power.

Firstly, cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body required mastery of twelve Forbidden Daos: the Forbidden Dao of Time, Forbidden Dao of Space, the five fundamental Forbidden Daos—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth—as well as the Forbidden Daos of Ice, Thunder, Wind, Light, and Darkness.

Only after mastering these twelve Forbidden Daos could one even begin cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body.

The most difficult part was that one must forcibly temper the body using the Dark Forbidden Origin power of these twelve Forbidden Daos to cultivate the Primordial Sacred Body.

This process was too challenging. The slightest mistake would cause the Forbidden Body to collapse, resulting in physical disintegration and death.

Ordinary Dao Ancestors wouldn’t dare to try it; a single failure meant certain death!

“However, this Primordial Sacred Body is practically tailor-made for me. Others don’t dare to cultivate it, but with my Copy Body talent, I can copy myself to practice safely. Once I’m fully confident in mastering it and successfully cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body, my main body can cultivate it without worry!” Ye Tian laughed.

Moreover, once he successfully cultivated the Primordial Sacred Body, his Forbidden Body would likely soon reach the Limit Dao level.

Originally, Ye Tian had planned to have his Copy Body disguised as Teng Feng of the Devourer Race act as a spy, but now he no longer had the heart for espionage. Naturally, cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body became his top priority!

Immediately,

Ye Tian’s Devourer Race Copy Body left the Devourer Realm and disintegrated on its own.

Shortly afterward, Ye Tian condensed another Copy Body, but this time it replicated his own body.

Whoosh!

His Copy Body departed the Profound Void Archaic Realm and headed toward the Dark Forbidden Domain.

Because cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body required entry into the Dark Forbidden Domain—it was impossible to succeed within the Dao Mountain Domain.

Dark Forbidden Domain.

Ye Tian’s Copy Body arrived here, continuously travelling deep into the Dark Forbidden Domain. After flying for a long while, he finally stopped.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go deeper, but continuing would mean encountering overpowering illusions and auditory hallucinations, affecting his cultivation and possibly exposing him to unimaginable terrors.

Thus, cultivating here was sufficient.

Ye Tian set up a grand formation, took out a Dao platform, sat atop it, and began cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body.

Boom!!

The origin power of the Dark Forbidden Domain descended, channeling the power of the twelve Forbidden Origin Daos into Ye Tian’s body. While Ye Tian activated the cultivation method for the Primordial Sacred Body, his body was repeatedly tempered.

Not long afterward, Ye Tian let out a miserable scream as his Copy Body directly exploded into pieces.

His first cultivation attempt failed!

Human Realm.

Ye Tian opened his eyes and sighed:

“As expected, cultivating the Primordial Sacred Body isn’t easy!”

When his Copy Talent was ready to duplicate a body once more, Ye Tian again copied himself and returned to the Dark Forbidden Domain to continue his cultivation.

Thus, Ye Tian repeatedly failed, repeatedly cultivated.

Time slowly passed by in this manner.
