Chapter 179: The Strange Nest!

TL: Etude

“How?” Ye Tian asked with interest.

He had only asked casually, not really expecting to get a way from Feng Luxue, but to his surprise, Feng Luxue actually had a suggestion. This piqued his curiosity.

“If it were normal times, it would be difficult to borrow the Battle Axe Emperor’s sword technique. But now, in these special circumstances, if one makes a significant contribution, it might be possible to make this request. There are also a few more challenging conditions, which I guess you might not be able to meet, but I’ll mention them anyway,” Feng Luxue explained.

He listed the possible ways:

“First, if you have a treasure that enhances soul strength, not just borrowing, but even a direct trade for that sword technique could be possible. Second, three golden-level axe techniques might allow you to borrow it, but golden-level axe techniques are even rarer than sword techniques, so the chances are slim. Third, become a disciple of the Battle Axe Emperor. If you’re a direct disciple, naturally, you have the right to borrow that sword technique. But since a direct disciple of his died thirty years ago, the Battle Axe Emperor hasn’t taken any formal disciples, unless it’s a truly exceptional talent. Fourth, a Longevity Pill. Anyone who has a Longevity Pill can trade it directly for that sword technique.”

“What, a Longevity Pill? What does the Battle Axe Emperor need a Longevity Pill for? A Saint with a perfect foundation can live for 1,500 years, and an Emperor can live for several thousand years at least. The Battle Axe Emperor has a long life, why does he need a Longevity Pill?” Ye Tian was puzzled.

“For his wife!” Feng Luxue explained, “This is a secret known to few, except for the older generation of Saints or Emperors at Zhonghai Super Base. The Battle Axe Emperor married his wife before the Earth’s change 100 years ago. Unfortunately, while the Battle Axe Emperor had exceptional talent, his wife had none. Initially, it was very difficult for humans to obtain treasures that could enhance talents. Only fifty years ago did humans gradually begin to obtain many such treasures. Our generation is quite lucky; it’s easy to enhance and even add talents. But for the older generation, it was too difficult. Thus, until fifty years ago, even at great cost, the Battle Axe Emperor could only get his wife a medium talent. By then, she didn’t have much life left, and you can imagine how slow her cultivation progress was. In the meantime, the Battle Axe Emperor used many precious treasures to extend his wife’s life, up to today. Now, although his wife’s talent has reached the Morning Star level, she’s still at the limit of a Great Martial Warrior and can’t break through to the Grandmaster level. Her body is too old; if she tries to break through, her meridians could easily shatter. This isn’t something talent can overcome unless she can obtain a treasure that reverses aging. Otherwise, she has no hope of becoming a Grandmaster.”

“I see!” Ye Tian sympathized with the Battle Axe Emperor.

Age indeed makes cultivation difficult. Even with high talent, if one starts cultivating at an older age, there’s not much future. For example, in the civilian area Ye Tian previously visited, he found many elders with excellent special talents, but he didn’t recruit them because even if he did, it wouldn’t be possible to cultivate them. Their life essence was nearly exhausted, and cultivating would not only fail to improve their strength but would also drain their life essence, leading to an earlier demise.

Age is an insurmountable barrier. The older one gets, the more difficult cultivation becomes. If one doesn’t step into the Grandmaster realm when young, there’s little potential later. It’s already too late to enhance talent in old age. Even someone as powerful as the Battle Axe Emperor is powerless in this regard.

The so-called survey involved confirming the levels and numbers of the beasts in the area without engaging in combat. Thus, the primary requirement was to conceal their presence, meaning they did not even kill low-level beasts.

“Over 100 top-level beasts!”

“Three King-level beasts!”

“Found a Saint-level beast!”

“Discovered a beast nest with about ten Saint-level beasts, several King-level beasts, and thousands of top-level and high-level beasts!”

Ye Tian reported the information he gathered bit by bit. His rapid surveying was due to his use of spatial perception, allowing him to detect even the beasts sleeping underground.

A day passed, and Ye Tian had almost completely surveyed his assigned area.

Just then, Feng Luxue sent a message: “Ye Tian, I’ve found a strange beast nest. My spiritual sense can’t detect the situation inside. The current situation is unclear. Do you have a way to investigate? If you do, come quickly! If not, it’s best not to come.”

“I do!” Ye Tian replied.

Feng Luxue then reported his location, and Ye Tian hurried over. Before long, Ye Tian arrived at Feng Luxue’s position. Feng Luxue was hidden inside a large tree, quietly observing a large mountain. This mountain was pitch black, its stones somehow blocking spiritual perception, but Saint-level beasts were frequently seen entering and leaving the mountain’s caves. This indicated that the nest was no ordinary place.

Seeing Ye Tian arrive, Feng Luxue sent a telepathic message: “Don’t reveal your presence; this nest is unusual!”
