Ye Tianling didn’t hesitate.
Just as he finished absorbing and processing this information, the Ancestral Dao Killing Intent descended.
The entire world went dark.
Ye Tianling finally understood why Ji Yuechan was so confident the Ancestral Dao Killing Intent would kill him.
When the Killing Intent manifested, he saw the Celestial Dao Rule Domain appear before him.
’That’s right... a Law Killing Intent at the Great Perfection Level of the Sword Ancestor Nine Paths, manifested by the Celestial Dao Rule Domain. When an attack like this appears, how could anyone resist? It’s simply irresistible.’
HUMMM—
The instant that dark Power of Slaughter descended, even Ye Tianling’s will was plunged into a state verging on deathly stillness.
This Killing Intent was unstoppable.
This Killing Intent was so powerful that not even a Daoist Ancestor at the Sword Ancestor Nine Paths Great Perfection Realm could have taken it, let alone Ye Tianling, even if his current strength were magnified ten million times.
This was a Law Killing Intent born from the Celestial Dao Rule Domain itself—it was tantamount to a Celestial Dao Erasure!
’How could he possibly withstand such an attack?’
To make matters worse, as this attack appeared, the separate killing intent Ji Yuechan had left inside the Baiyu Demon God Radiant Bow also erupted.
That killing intent immediately bound Ye Tianling like a Dragon-Binding Rope.
But in that split second, the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower shot out from between Ye Tianling’s brows. It manifested as a black hole and instantly devoured the binding attack.
However, just as Ji Yuechan’s killing intent erupted, the Mechanical Heart suddenly activated, spurring Ye Tianling’s Dragon Soul into action like an intelligent assistant.
As a result, Ye Tianling unleashed the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique. He combined the Endless Devouring Law with the Time and Space Laws to instantly trap the deadly attack.
Influenced by the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower, the Space Mirror also activated, forming a suit of Defensive Battle Armor to protect Ye Tianling.
The Space Mirror had sensed Ye Tianling’s mortal peril and once again unleashed its Guardian Power!
In other words, even without the Little Dragon Girl’s arrangements, the Space Mirror’s protective power would likely have been enough to block the destructive Ancestral Dao Killing Intent on its own.
However, had that been the case, Ye Tianling wouldn’t have been able to obtain the other special benefits.
’So there were at least two safeguards!’
’And if I count the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower’s own life-saving abilities, that makes three! Heh, Ji Yuechan, you probably never imagined that I not only could survive the Ancestral Dao Killing Intent, but that I had at least three different ways to stop it.’
’An ant? One day, you bitch, I’ll make you wish you were dead!’
Ye Tianling sneered inwardly. The Mechanical Heart activated further, and his Innate Abilities began to return at an accelerated rate.
After unleashing the Emperor’s Qi Dragon Swallowing Heaven Divine Technique, Ye Tianling’s own abilities evolved to their absolute peak.
Ye Tianling had deployed nearly all of his trump cards, including the Space-Time Soul-locking Tower. As a result, all of his abilities began to undergo a metamorphosis.
The Space Mirror had actively transformed into Battle Armor, bonding with Ye Tianling’s Soul.
At that moment, Ye Tianling saw two Life Soul Seeds floating quietly within the Battle Armor, appearing as two peerless, Spiritual halos of light.
One was fiery red.
One was cyan-purple.
The fiery red one was the Life Soul Seed of his father, Ye Fengyang.
His father, Ye Fengyang, had stripped away his own Talent, bloodline, and abilities, turning them into a "seed" to aid his son’s rise to power.
This was a father’s love.
His mother, Long Qingzhuo, had done the same, stripping away her own bloodline and Innate Ability into a "seed." She had essentially sacrificed herself, dedicating everything she was to Ye Tianling in the hopes that he could defy fate and rise to power.
The sight touched Ye Tianling’s heart.
He had never once been disappointed in his parents, Ye Fengyang and Long Qingzhuo.
And so, he would not—could not—harvest his parents’ Life Seeds.
He understood perfectly well that unlike him, his parents could never rise again if they were harvested.
’After all, if someone was truly harvested, how could they possibly defy fate and rise again?’
His own situation wasn’t a "harvest" at all; it was a Yin Yang Harmony. The difference between the two was as vast as heaven and earth!
But his parents had paid such an enormous price. To not accept their gift would be to fail them!
Ye Tianling considered this for a moment. The space around him was beginning to wither and decay, and his own body was starting to crack apart.
The power coursing through him was too immense, too terrifying. His physical body could no longer contain it.
’From my mother’s seed, I will study and learn from the evolutionary process of the Soul Talent. From my father’s, I’ll choose the Fiery Sun Divine Blood Divine Body Talent. I’ll just study them, observe them for a while, and then release them. I’ll give my parents their freedom!’
Ye Tianling made his decision.
He immediately began his study.
There really wasn’t much time left.
If he couldn’t pass the Hell-Level Celestial Tribulation and break through to the Sword Tribulation First Refining Realm before this space collapsed, he would be buried in the Thousand Shadows Pool, regardless of any other successes.
And he probably had less than half a day left.
Ye Tianling ignored his crumbling body and the complex changes wracking it. He even ignored the Mechanical Heart’s assistance in fusing the various Daos, focusing his entire being on the task at hand.
Unleashing the One Qi Three Pure Technique, Ye Tianling split his consciousness into three, effectively becoming three separate beings.
One frantically studied the Soul Talent.
Another frantically comprehended the Fiery Sun Divine Blood Divine Body Talent—the Azure Celestial Dominator Blood.
And the third carefully focused on countering, absorbing, and refining the terrifying killing intent left behind by Ji Yuechan.
Time flowed by. In what felt like the blink of an eye, nearly four hours had passed.
He made tremendous progress with the Soul Talent. He finally understood the flaws in how he had been applying it. By combining this new understanding with his comprehension of the Time Law and the Space Mirror, he achieved a qualitative breakthrough.
Ye Tianling also fully grasped the Profound Meaning of the Fiery Sun Divine Body and the Azure Celestial Dominator Blood. He transformed his Dragon Soul Divine Blood into the Azure Celestial Dominator Blood, causing his bloodline to surge violently as it turned pure gold. He had reached the Super Divine Level state of the Azure Celestial Dominator Blood.
In an instant, he had become an Emperor Level Inheritor of the Azure Celestial Dominator Blood Talent!
If the Divine Descendant Ye Clan learned of this, they would surely spare no expense to immediately descend and welcome Ye Tianling back into their fold.
The honors they would bestow upon him would likely far exceed the reverence the Divine Hall of Life holds for its Life Goddess!
But Ye Tianling felt no excitement.
’But this alone was far from enough.’
He wasn’t sure he could even contact them, but even if he could, the "karmic" history between his father, Ye Fengyang, and the Divine Descendant Ye Clan likely meant there were irreconcilable conflicts.
’Otherwise, why would his father be suppressed in the so-called Netherworld Hall?’
’Otherwise, why would his own life be so tragic? He was, after all, a third-generation Direct Lineage Inheritor of the Divine Descendant Ye Clan!’
