Your Talent is Mine

Chapter 617: The Severely Underestimated Soul Resources

TL: Etude

“Seventh level Soul Strength!”

Ye Tian felt quite satisfied with his current soul strength. After all, in just one year, his soul had undergone a tremendous qualitative transformation, becoming vastly stronger than before.

With his current soul strength, if he employed mystic-level soul attack techniques, he could injure, or even instantly kill, other God-level beings possessing soul defense treasures.

Facing some galaxy-level powerhouses, his soul attacks were also potent enough to inflict damage.

“This is only the seventh level of soul strength. If I can elevate it to the ninth level or even to the level of a Nether General, combined with an increase in cultivation to the planetary system level, my power would certainly rival Universal Gods. I might even be able to slay most of them!” Ye Tian estimated.

However, high-level soul resources were scarce in the Ghost Realm.

For instance, the green beads, although they enhanced soul strength, were now of little use to Ye Tian with his seventh level celestial soul strength.

The soul-related plants and flowers in the Ghost Realm initially had some effect, but as Ye Tian’s soul strength increased, they gradually lost their effectiveness.

Thus, it was challenging for Ye Tian to quickly enhance his soul strength in this Ghost Realm.

“It’s time to leave!”

Ye Tian decided not to waste any more time here. Raising his soul strength to the eighth level in this Ghost Realm was nearly impossible, and it was also difficult to use time-related talents here.

If he returned to the outside world and used his time talents, even normal cultivation with the Nether King Secret Manual might yield faster progress than staying here.

There were only two ways to leave the Ghost Realm:

The first method was to wait until the Ghost Gate’s energy depleted, expelling all souls back to their bodies.

The second method was to communicate strongly with his body, making a strong desire to leave, which would cause the Ghost Realm to automatically eject the soul. However, this method required time and could not be interrupted.

Ye Tian found a quiet place without soul creatures to disturb him.

He then began to communicate with his body, strongly desiring to leave the Ghost Realm.

As time passed, about an hour later, Ye Tian sensed the location of his body and felt the repulsion of the Ghost Realm.

At this moment, Ye Tian intensified his desire to leave, making the repulsion stronger.

Suddenly, at a certain moment,

With a whoosh! Ye Tian was instantly expelled from the Ghost Realm, and his soul returned to the Ghost Gate’s grid.

Then,

Ye Tian opened his eyes, stood up, and walked out from the grid of the Ghost Gate.

“Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, did you obtain any legacy in the Ghost Realm?”

A Dominator appeared suddenly and asked.

Every person who exited the Ghost Realm was questioned by the Dominator of the Ghost Gate Tower. If they had obtained a legacy, they were required to leave an imprint and submit it to the Ghost Gate Tower.

Therefore, Ye Tian was neither surprised nor annoyed.

“The legacy I obtained is extremely important. Please inform the Supreme of the Ghost Gate Tower and other Supremes to have their avatars descend here.”

Ye Tian said solemnly and seriously.

This Dominator knew Ye Tian well and understood he wasn’t speaking frivolously, so he said, “Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, I will notify them immediately.”

Soon, the Dominator reported Ye Tian’s situation to the higher-ups.

The speed of the Supremes was incredible. With a single thought, their avatars could descend to the Ghost Gate Tower.

Boom, boom, boom! Several Supreme avatars descended.

Among them were the avatars of Kunwu Supreme, Curse Supreme, and others.

Moreover, a Supreme’s true self descended as well.

This Supreme was the City Lord of the Holy City, known as Holy Heaven Supreme.

Holy Heaven Supreme’s strength was second only to Kunwu Supreme, but in the Holy City, even Kunwu Supreme was no match for Holy Heaven Supreme.

Just as Holy Heaven Supreme was no match for Kunwu Supreme in the Supreme Hall of Humanity, Holy Heaven Supreme had managed the Holy City for countless years, even integrating numerous divine formations and his strongest supreme treasures into the city, ensuring its eternal stability.

Even Primordial Supreme would find it challenging to defeat Holy Heaven Supreme within the Holy City.

Primordial Supreme, Kunwu Supreme, and Holy Heaven Supreme were the three great Supremes from the early rise of humanity. They were absolutely loyal and would never betray humanity.

Thus, the Supreme Hall of Humanity was governed by Kunwu Supreme, the Holy City was managed by Holy Heaven Supreme, and Primordial Supreme’s numerous avatars guarded various regions of humanity, deterring external enemies.

These three Supremes were the true pillars of humanity. Other Supremes could only be considered as pillars of their respective supreme-level forces.

When Holy Heaven Supreme and the avatars of the other Supremes descended, they appeared before Ye Tian.

Holy Heaven Supreme looked at Ye Tian and said, “Ye Tian, you said you obtained an astonishing legacy in the Ghost Realm and summoned us here. Now that we are here, I hope you did not exaggerate.”

Ye Tian smiled and replied, “All of you Supremes should have knowledge of the Nether King Civilization from the Ghost Race’s records. The Ghost Realm was created by the Nether King Civilization, and the Ghost Race only obtained some of its ordinary legacies, not even slightly better ones.

What I obtained is one of the three supreme secret techniques of the Nether King Civilization—the Nether King Secret Manual, and it is the strongest among them.

However, mastering this secret technique is extremely difficult.

But you Supremes might be able to gain some insights from the Nether King Secret Manual and create soul cultivation methods suitable for humanity.”

As he spoke, Ye Tian imprinted the Nether King Secret Manual from his mind.

Soon, the complete Nether King Secret Manual was imprinted by Ye Tian, forming a soul book.

“Please take a look, Supremes.”

Ye Tian handed over the imprinted version of the Nether King Secret Manual.

Holy Heaven Supreme and the other Supremes each browsed through it, soon displaying expressions of surprise.

They had previously perused some soul secret techniques of the Ghost Race and did indeed know about the Nether King Civilization. Because of this, they greatly valued the Ghost Gate as an ultimate treasure.

Comparing the Nether King Secret Manual with the Ghost Race’s techniques, they could easily discern that the Nether King Secret Manual far surpassed the legacies obtained by the Ghost Race from the Ghost Realm. The difference was enormous.

“This… a supreme treasure, a true soul technique treasure!”

The Supremes exclaimed excitedly.

With this Nether King Secret Manual, they could absolutely create numerous soul secret techniques suitable for humanity, making humanity far superior to other great races in the universe in terms of soul cultivation.

“Ye Tian, the Nether King Secret Manual you contributed is immensely important. We will discuss some rewards for you later. You may leave for now.” Kunwu Supreme and the others said.

“Understood!” Ye Tian nodded.

Shortly after, Ye Tian left the Ghost Gate Tower.

Then, Dominator Dark took Ye Tian and escorted him back to the Supreme Hall of Humanity.

After returning to the Supreme Hall of Humanity, Ye Tian used his authority to purchase some soul resources from the Supreme Hall.

Soon, in a trading area of the Supreme Hall of Humanity, he saw a large number of soul resources.

When he carefully checked the prices of these soul resources, he was immensely surprised.

“Blood Ghost Root, a soul resource with significant hidden dangers, costs 30,000 points per root.”

“Hundred Soul Grass, although not very effective when directly refined, can greatly increase soul strength when refined with Golden Dragon Flower using a special method. Hundred Soul Grass costs only one point per plant, and Golden Dragon Flower costs just ten points per flower.

This… this is too cheap!”

Ye Tian examined many soul resources, noting that many had extensive uses and significant value, yet their prices were extremely low.

Some resources could greatly enhance soul strength but had difficult-to-remove flaws, yet their prices were very high.

“Humanity does not truly understand the real use of these soul resources.” Ye Tian saw this as an opportunity.

Although the Supremes of humanity now possessed the Nether King Secret Manual, they surely had no time to manage these resource transactions. He could definitely purchase a large amount of these severely undervalued soul resources.

“Buy! Buy as quickly as possible!” Ye Tian commanded.
