Chapter 156: The Age of Sects! The Age of Ferocious Beasts!

Chapter 156: The Sect Era! The Fierce Beast Era! [Tenth update, seeking full subscription]

Ye Tian had a premonition that if he didn't leave that grand hall, he would definitely encounter other Martial Artists.

Back then, Sun Xinghe and the others hadn't died.

What if a grand hall, whose Formation had been breached, had a large number of Golden Armor Corpse Puppets? To obtain those treasures, they might give up on trying to reach Profound Meaning Grade talent.

Previously, the reason they hadn't tried to reach Saint-Grade was simply that they thought they could break the Formation with a little time, so there was no need to rush.

But they hadn't expected a large number of Golden Armor Corpse Puppets to appear, which led to their miscalculation.

Once Sun Xinghe and the other survivors were safe, they would definitely try to reach Saint-Grade, and then return to that grand hall.

“Too bad, your speed in reaching Saint-Grade was a bit slow!”

Ye Tian thought to himself.

He had Celestial Grade Cultivation Talent, and entered Saint-Grade in less than three days. If it were Sun Xinghe and the others, they wouldn't be able to reach Saint-Grade without seven or eight days.

Ye Tian flew along, arriving at a large mountain, where he opened a temporary cave dwelling, and then checked the last few treasures.

Three bottles of pills, five black books, and a token.

Ye Tian first refined the token, only then realizing what it was for.

“The Core Disciple token of the Black Heaven Corpse Sect!”

This item was useless to him.

Ye Tian then flipped through the five Secret Manuals.

Currently, Ye Tian could understand these characters because he had memorized the content of the previous Secret Manuals, the root characters, and the meaning conveyed by mental transmission, recording the meaning of every character.

Therefore, he could now understand these characters.

The five Secret Manuals were not cultivation manuals. Three of them were books on pills, including even several extremely Heaven-Defying pills that could increase and enhance talent.

However, as soon as Ye Tian saw the medicinal ingredients required for those pills, he shook his head. He had never even heard of these ingredients, and it would be almost impossible to collect them all.

The other two books were introductions to the Black Heaven Corpse Sect. After reading them, Ye Tian realized that he had truly misunderstood, and even Wang Yan had misunderstood.

Ancient civilization was not an Earth civilization, but an extraterrestrial one.

The Black Heaven Corpse Sect was a Sect from another world, or rather, another planet. Due to an accident, some Disciples of the Black Heaven Corpse Sect occasionally came to Earth through a Space Rift, along with Sects from other planets.

In that era, many powerful cultivators fought on Earth, leaving the world scarred and its elemental energy dissipated.

Eventually,

these Sects abandoned Earth, returning one by one through Space Rifts, leaving behind some ruins.

These two Secret Manuals were written by a Great Emperor of the Black Heaven Corpse Sect. After writing them, he left Earth with the powerful cultivators of the Black Heaven Corpse Sect, leaving behind only a divine hall and some outer Disciples of the Black Heaven Corpse Sect.

“Those outer Disciples probably found it difficult to improve their strength on an Earth lacking in elemental energy, and they all died when their Lifespans reached their limit. Their descendants also found it difficult to become Martial Artists, and the Black Heaven Corpse Sect's Legacy gradually died out.”

Ye Tian guessed.

At this moment,

he already knew that the so-called ancient civilization ruins were the ruins of those Sects. In that era, Earth must have been like it is now, with many Space Rifts appearing.

However, those Space Rifts connected to the worlds of those Sects, while now these Space Rifts connect to the worlds of fierce beasts.

“The ancient civilization era can be understood as the Sect Era, and now it is the Fierce Beast Era. Everything was originally this simple!”

Ye Tian murmured.

Although those Sects made a mess of Earth back then, they also left behind many legacies; otherwise, humanity would truly have been annihilated in the Fierce Beast Era.

After reading the five Secret Manuals, Ye Tian finally knew what the three bottles of pills were.

One bottle of Cultivation Talent Pills, one bottle of Spirit Forging Pills, and one bottle of Lifespan Pills.

The Cultivation Talent Pill could raise a Martial Artist's Cultivation Talent to Morning Star Grade, and there was only one inside.

The Spirit Forging Pills could temper Mental Energy and help King Grade cultivators enter Saint-Grade; there were three inside.

The Lifespan Pill was quite Heaven-Defying, directly adding 100 years of Lifespan, a treasure many old monsters dreamed of.

These were all left by that Great Emperor for the descendants of the Black Heaven Corpse Sect, but unfortunately, those descendants never discovered that secret chamber hall; otherwise, these items would have been lost long ago.

In fact, Ye Tian was even guessing whether the destruction of the grand hall's Formation was caused by battles among the outer Disciples left behind by the Black Heaven Corpse Sect?

Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed possible.

Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed possible.

The unfortunate thing was that they didn't take these treasures, and now Ye Tian benefited!

“I can give one Spirit Forging Pill to Wang Yan, and the rest are all mine. Plus the large number of treasures found in that grand hall, my current wealth has increased countless times!” Ye Tian was filled with excitement.

But not long after, he became very helpless.

He couldn't acquire any more treasures. He found a building, but no Golden Armor Corpse Puppets came out, and he couldn't break the Formation.

He initially thought it was just a coincidence, but he found several buildings like this in a row.

Finally, he came to a conclusion.

The Formations of the buildings could sense cultivation. Once it exceeded Saint-Grade, one could not obtain treasures. The Formation was not open to Saint-Grade cultivators; only King Grade cultivators could enter the Formation and take one treasure.

“Why didn't anyone tell me this? No wonder those King Grade cultivators didn't try to reach Saint-Grade. After all, Saint-Grade has advantages, but it turns out that once you become Saint-Grade, you can't get any treasures.”

Ye Tian suddenly realized.

Suddenly,

he thought of Sun Xinghe. If that guy were to try to reach Saint-Grade, and after becoming Saint-Grade, went to that grand hall only to find no treasures left and no way to continue acquiring them, would he go crazy with rage?

“Probably!”

Ye Tian said with a smile.

Somewhere in the divine hall space.

Sun Xinghe was trying to reach Saint-Grade.

At this moment, he had been in seclusion for seven days. With his Radiant Moon-level Cultivation Talent, he was finally about to complete the materialization of his Mental Energy, forming Divine Sense.

Boom!!!!

Divine Sense was born, and his cultivation broke through.

Soon,

his physical strength soared tenfold, his speed skyrocketed, his defense dramatically increased, and with the incredible comprehension gained during the advancement, he instantly raised his Pseudo-Esoteric Level Power Talent to 90%.

Immediately, his strength soared again!

“Hahaha, all the treasures in that grand hall are mine!”

Sun Xinghe laughed wildly.

So, he eagerly flew towards that grand hall.

Before long, he arrived in front of that grand hall.

“Huh, where are the Golden Armor Corpse Puppets? Did they all leave?”

Sun Xinghe asked in confusion.

So, he walked into the grand hall.

“My treasures? Who was it!!!!”

Sun Xinghe was furious.

He had given up on trying to reach Profound Meaning Grade talent for these treasures. Originally, he had planned to endure a few more years, raise his Pseudo-Esoteric Level Power Talent to 70%, and then try to reach Saint-Grade, instantly boosting his Pseudo-Esoteric Level Power Talent to Profound Meaning Level Power Talent.

But now, the treasures were gone, and his attempt to reach Profound Meaning Level Power Talent was also ruined.

A heavy loss!

And not only that, he had already reached Saint-Grade, so he couldn't search for buildings to acquire treasures anymore.

“Damn it, who was it?”

Sun Xinghe understood that someone must have reached Saint-Grade before him and cleaned out the place.

Faces of various King Grade cultivators flashed through his mind, finally settling on one person.

“It was that pale-faced youth!”

Sun Xinghe remembered Ye Tian. Only Ye Tian was the most likely candidate, and immediately murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

Unfortunately, the Ye Tian he saw was just Ye Tian's disguised appearance, so he would never find Ye Tian.
