Your Talent is Mine - Chapter 872: A Deal with Goddess Yun Zi!

TL: Etude

In the territory of the War God Tower.

In front of a white palace, a group of women stood guard. This was the residence of Goddess Yun Zi — the Purple Cloud Palace. (Yun Zi = Cloud Purple btw)

Goddess Yun Zi, being a seven-star Divine General and a personal disciple of a Dao Ancestor, occupied a vast region in the Grand Universe, which was named the Purple Cloud Domain.

The environment of the Grand Universe differed from that of ordinary universes. The Grand Universe consisted mostly of continental terrains, with countless starry sky continents in the void. The largest of these starry sky continents was the Ancestral Stele Continent, where the Ancestral Stele was located. It was boundless, many times the size of previous universes.

The Void Sky Hall was situated on the Void Sky Continent, far from the Purple Cloud Domain.

However, for a Divine General, this distance was negligible.

With his incredible speed, Ye Tian soon arrived at the Purple Cloud Domain.

Standing before the Purple Cloud Palace, Ye Tian quickly made his way inside and met Goddess Yun Zi.

“Greetings to Goddess Yun Zi!” Ye Tian said.

“The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws is too polite. Please, have a seat!” Goddess Yun Zi responded, then had all the maids leave, including the Heavenly Monarch who was guarding her.

At this moment, only Ye Tian and Goddess Yun Zi remained.

“Goddess Yun Zi, do you truly have the Chaos Black Tortoise Shell?” Ye Tian asked urgently.

“Yes!” Goddess Yun Zi smiled and said, “The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws has been collecting Destiny Stones and Chaos Black Tortoise Shells for years. These two treasures are essential innate origins for cultivating the Great Divination Technique. In the chaos, the Great Divination Technique is considered almost impossible to master and is nearly abandoned by people. If it weren’t for the terrifying power of the Great Divination Technique, it would have long fallen out of the top hundred divine abilities.

The Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws certainly possesses the Great Divination Technique, but you lack the supreme treasures to fuse the Destiny Talent and the Deduction Talent. Could it be that you already have the Divine Calculation Talent?”

“What do you mean, Goddess Yun Zi? Are you trying to pry into my secrets?” Ye Tian’s tone turned somewhat unpleasant.

Goddess Yun Zi quickly replied, “Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws, there’s no need to worry. I only wish to know if you can master the Great Divination Technique. If you are confident in mastering it and can help me with a task, I will give you the Chaos Black Tortoise Shell as a gift and even offer you some additional rewards. How about that?”

“First, tell me what you need help with,” Ye Tian demanded.

Goddess Yun Zi’s expression shifted slightly, showing a hint of surprise.

Though Ye Tian hadn’t admitted to mastering the Great Divination Technique, his question about the task indicated his confidence in mastering it. Otherwise, there would be no need to ask.

After all, the premise of their cooperation was the Great Divination Technique!

“I need to enter a forbidden area!” Goddess Yun Zi explained. “The Grand Universe has birthed several forbidden areas, some of which are so dangerous that they can trap even the strongest Heavenly Monarchs on the Heavenly Monarch Rankings.

I discovered that one of these forbidden areas holds a significant opportunity for me, but my master cannot help, and even her power cannot extend into the Grand Universe.

So, I can only rely on myself.

However, the forbidden area is extremely dangerous, a natural killing array. The killing arrays within are completely unpredictable, and the rules there differ from elsewhere. Even formation Heavenly Monarchs cannot comprehend the killing arrays there.

But someone with the Great Divination Technique can deduce which places are dangerous and which are safe.

If the Dao Child of Ten Thousand Laws truly masters the Great Divination Technique, I hope you can accompany me to the center of that forbidden area.”

“Alright, I indeed can master the Great Divination Technique,” Ye Tian conceded, “but such a task is inevitably dangerous. Even if I can avoid the killing arrays, who knows what other dangers lurk within. The Great Divination Technique isn’t all-powerful; it cannot see through the future, only deduce and calculate based on existing things.”

“If that forbidden area truly holds unknown dangers, I might not be able to foresee everything. Therefore, I need more compensation. The Chaos Black Tortoise Shell alone is not enough,” Ye Tian clearly stated.

“Alright, what else do you want?” Goddess Yun Zi asked.

“I want a Chaos Divine Ability of the twelve major attributes and the corresponding innate origin objects. I don’t need anything related to time-space or lightning attributes,” Ye Tian pondered for a moment and then replied.

“Heh, even if you wanted time-space attributes, I wouldn’t be able to provide them!” Goddess Yun Zi rolled her eyes and then nodded. “Alright, I do have a Chaos Divine Ability inheritance, and one of them comes with the corresponding innate origin object. Unfortunately, I lack the necessary talent to cultivate it.

This Chaos Divine Ability is of the metal attribute, called the Devouring Gold Divine Ability. It’s a rather rare cultivation-type Chaos Divine Ability, ranked 121st among Chaos Divine Abilities.”

As Goddess Yun Zi explained, Ye Tian began to understand the Devouring Gold Divine Ability.

Once mastered, the Devouring Gold Divine Ability allowed the practitioner to devour various metals, refining them into a set of full-body armor, and even into weapons. The grade of the armor and weapons corresponded with the practitioner’s own strength. When the Devouring Gold Divine Ability reached its perfected realm, it could potentially grant a Divine General Chaos Supreme Treasures-level armor and weapons, perfectly suited to the practitioner. However, getting started with the Devouring Gold Divine Ability was difficult. It required the fusion of the Devouring Talent and the Metal Attribute Talent to form the Devouring Gold Talent, and this talent was resource-intensive, requiring a massive amount of metals. In essence, a poor Divine General couldn’t afford to cultivate the Devouring Gold Divine Ability.

Goddess Yun Zi, with her background, could theoretically obtain the Devouring Talent and Metal Attribute Talent from the War God Tower and fuse them into the Devouring Gold Talent using treasures, though at a high cost.

But to pay such a hefty price to cultivate a divine ability she didn’t particularly favor was simply not worth it.

Moreover, even with her resources as a personal disciple of the Dao Ancestor, she could at most cultivate only two Chaos Divine Abilities. To cultivate any additional Chaos Divine Abilities, she would have to rely entirely on herself, as the War God Tower wouldn’t assist her further.

Thus, she had to choose the Chaos Divine Abilities that suited her best.

For this reason, the Devouring Gold Divine Ability was shelved.

If Ye Tian could truly help her, giving him the Devouring Gold Divine Ability wouldn’t be a problem.

“Alright!” Ye Tian agreed on the spot. “I can help you, but after the task is completed, you must give me the Devouring Gold Divine Ability and its corresponding innate origin object.”

“Deal!” Goddess Yun Zi also agreed.

After they signed the agreement, Ye Tian obtained the Chaos Black Tortoise Shell.

However, Goddess Yun Zi required Ye Tian to cultivate the Great Divination Technique within the Purple Cloud Palace. She wasn’t worried about him running away but was concerned about him being delayed by other matters.

Ye Tian didn’t mind; he could cultivate anywhere.

After settling into a side hall of the Purple Cloud Palace, he focused entirely on cultivating the Great Divination Technique.

Time flew by, and a thousand years passed.

One day, Ye Tian finally mastered the Great Divination Technique.

After mastering this supreme divine ability, Ye Tian truly realized the terrifying effectiveness of the Great Divination Technique.

Under its influence, he could perfect his martial arts, deducing and correcting all his flaws.

“It’s terrifying. If I truly perfect myself, my strength can improve even further. Even if I don’t reach the peak of the seven-star Divine Generals, I won’t be far from it.

Moreover, once I master one or two Chaos Divine Abilities, my strength will undoubtedly reach the peak of the seven-star Divine Generals,” Ye Tian exclaimed excitedly.
