Capítulo 386: 0386
Ye Tian distanced himself from the Sea of Undead and arrived in an area where the undead energy was not as dense. He swiftly emerged from the spatial void.
"Merge with the top-tier Undead Talent!"
Ye Tian endured the pain brought by the fusion of the undead talent in silence. However, the pain was mild. After all, this was just a top-tier talent. Even though undead talents were strange, they wouldn't cause Ye Tian too much agony.
After ten minutes, Ye Tian successfully fused with the top-tier undead talent.
Immediately, he became aware of the uses of this new talent.
"Absorb undead energy to enhance physical strength!"
In essence, the undead talent could be used as a method to strengthen one's abilities, though its practical value wasn't very significant. However, for Ye Tian, in the current situation, the greatest use of this undead talent wasn't to boost his strength but to resist the undead energy of the Sea of Undead.
"With the effects of this top-tier undead talent, I should be able to withstand the undead energy in the Sea of Undead!"
Ye Tian speculated.
However, to be sure, he still needed to test it.
Thus, Ye Tian flew toward the Sea of Undead.
This time, he didn't hide within a spatial fold but directly flew forward.
On the way, Ye Tian activated his undead talent, absorbing the undead energy that surged into his body. His physical strength increased, but at a very slow rate. It was better than using ordinary qi to temper his body, but nowhere near as fast as cultivating with resources.
Still, it was undeniable that the undead energy was no longer a major threat to him.
Before long, Ye Tian arrived at the Sea of Undead.
He glanced at the corpses of geniuses who had perished by the sea's edge, took a deep breath, and stepped into the sea.
Boom! Countless waves of undead energy seemed to sense Ye Tian's presence and surged toward him, as if drawn to a feast.
His living aura clashed with the undead energy like a drop of clean water in a pool of ink, quickly being swallowed up.
"Undead Talent, absorb!"
Ye Tian frantically activated his undead talent, absorbing the undead energy rushing into his body to prevent it from corroding his flesh.
"I can hold on!"
Ye Tian exhaled in relief.
The undead talent worked well, although it didn't completely negate the damage from the undead energy, at least it ensured he wouldn't die immediately.
Still, Ye Tian couldn't stay here for too long. Otherwise, the undead energy would eventually erode his body completely, leaving him dead.
"Enter the spatial fold!"
Ye Tian activated his spatial talent, slipping back into the spatial void, and headed toward the tomb of the Lord of the Abyss in the center of the Sea of Undead.
Before long, he arrived at the Lord of the Abyss's tomb.
With a flicker, Ye Tian emerged from the void, stepping onto the giant tortoise shell that formed the foundation of the tomb.
He walked step by step towards the tomb.
Boom! The tomb sensed Ye Tian's presence, and a divine light enveloped him, as if examining his identity.
If Ye Tian weren't human, there'd be no way for him to inherit the legacy of the Lord of the Abyss.
The light quickly faded, seemingly confirming Ye Tian's identity.
At that moment, an elderly figure appeared, as if stepping out from the depths of time and space.
His arrival caused the sea water of the Sea of Undead to freeze, and even the void was locked in place.
Ye Tian could only watch helplessly as the shadowy figure emerged, his body unable to move.
However, he felt no fear, as he didn't sense any danger.
"A projection left behind by the Lord of the Abyss, huh?"
Ye Tian silently mused as he gazed at the elderly figure.
The projection of the Lord of the Abyss spoke, "Boy, I don't know who you are, but the fact that you made it here and triggered my projection shows that you're an Emperor-level cultivator and have reached my tomb."
"I must congratulate you. You're about to receive a great opportunity."
"You don't need to ask me anything. I am but a projection, only here to relay what was left behind. It's impossible for me to hear the questions of someone from an era so far in the future."
"What I want to tell you is that I once obtained an incredible legacy. Unfortunately, I never succeeded in mastering it."
"This legacy can extend a person's lifespan—not by a little, but by an enormous amount, defying the laws of the universe."
"When my life was nearing its end, I discovered a divine tomb in the galaxy. I came here to harness the boundless death energy of this place to reverse the flow of lifeforce and master this secret technique, hoping to rejuvenate my body."
"Alas, I failed. But in my failure, I finally understood a truth."
"Once someone reaches the God-level, their physical body becomes fully fixed. It is almost impossible to master this technique at that stage. Only Emperor-level cultivators, whose bodies are not yet fully set, have a chance to succeed. But this secret technique requires the absorption of death energy, and the damage it inflicts on the body is immense. Emperor-level bodies are fragile and may not withstand such corrosion."
"That's why I built my tomb at the center of the Sea of Undead. If an Emperor-level cultivator can make it here, it means your body is strong enough to endure the corrosion of undead energy. You may have a chance to master this secret technique."
"That's all I have to say. The secret technique is yours. Whether or not you choose to cultivate it is up to you."
The projection of the Lord of the Abyss vanished.
In the next moment, a golden scroll appeared before Ye Tian.
The scroll unfurled, and countless ancient characters manifested in the air.
These ancient characters formed the mysterious and profound secret technique.
"The Art of Merging Lifeforce!"
Ye Tian was stunned as he studied the content of the technique.
The Art of Merging Lifeforce had three stages. Upon mastering the first stage, one could extend their lifespan by ten thousand years. For instance, Ye Tian, as an Emperor-level cultivator, currently had 300 years of life. Once he mastered the first stage, he would gain an additional 130 years. Although this might not seem extraordinary, as many supreme treasures can extend lifespan by ten thousand years, this technique doesn't stop there. Lifespan continues to increase.
Normally, the lifespan of a God-level expert is ten thousand years. But by mastering the first stage of the Art of Merging Lifeforce, when one reaches the God-level, their lifespan would be extended by an additional ten thousand years.
In other words, upon breaking through to the God-level, Ye Tian would have twice the lifespan of an ordinary God-level being, effectively living 20,000 years.
The second stage of the Art of Merging Lifeforce was even more terrifying—it could directly increase one's lifespan by 100,000 years per stage.
As for the third and final stage, it was said that upon mastering it, one's lifespan would become eternal.
At this point, Ye Tian didn't know if the claim of eternal life was exaggerated, but the fact that the Lord of the Abyss had not doubted the technique's authenticity suggested it wasn't a lie.
"A truly monumental opportunity!"
Ye Tian was extremely excited.
If news of this secret technique were to spread, it would cause an uproar throughout the entire galaxy, and even attract powerful beings from distant regions, willing to kill for it.
Ye Tian quickly memorized the Art of Merging Lifeforce, then destroyed the scroll.
Such a secret technique couldn't be left out in the open. Only he should remember it. If someone with great power tracked it down, he would be in serious trouble.
Thus, storing it in his memory was the safest option.
"There aren't many places that contain undead energy. This is the best place to cultivate the Art of Merging Lifeforce. I hope I can master the first stage."
Ye Tian eagerly anticipated it.
Without delay, he sat directly on the tortoise shell and began to comprehend the Art of Merging Lifeforce.
"Activate top-tier comprehension!"
"Activate time affinity!"
Ye Tian even took out several ancient relic stones that enhanced comprehension and placed them around himself to assist in his cultivation.
Five days passed, and Ye Tian had almost fully understood the Art of Merging Lifeforce. He then began the process of cultivation.
As soon as he activated the technique, an unimaginable amount of undead energy surged toward him, threatening to instantly corrode his body.
Ye Tian quickly used his top-tier undead talent to absorb the undead energy and combined it with the Art of Merging Lifeforce for cultivation.
"It's working!"
Ye Tian was pleasantly surprised.
His biggest fear was that this method wouldn't work, which would have prevented him from cultivating the Art of Merging Lifeforce.
