Chapter 383: Hard Battle, Unleashing the Great Dao Sacrifice Source Technique

Ye Tian entered the Top Ten, which did not surprise Taixuan Dao Ancestor much; upon seeing that Ye Tian's Slaughter Demon God Body had already reached the limit of the first stage, and his Great Dao Realm had also reached the limit attainable by an Immortal True God, there was a ninety percent chance he would enter the Top Ten.

The truly difficult part is the top three; in these last ten Immortal True God Battles, the top three have always been those three individuals, and it is too difficult for the Immortal True Gods behind them to surpass these three.

It is not to say that the Immortal True Gods behind lack talent, but their cultivation time is far inferior to those three, and no one has the patience to endure countless ages, spending time at the level of an Immortal True God.

Therefore, this has resulted in those three maintaining the top three positions.

Not long after, the Top Ten were all determined.

At this moment, Ye Tian stared at those three middle-aged men; their appearances were somewhat aged.

From this, it can be seen that the lifespans of these three Immortal True Gods are running low.

Under normal circumstances, whether an Immortal True God reincarnates or seals themselves, the limit of their lifespan should be one billion years.

Once it exceeds one billion years, the soul will completely dissipate, making it impossible to reincarnate or survive any longer.

But those Dao Ancestors certainly have ways to extend the lifespans of Immortal True Gods; for instance, these three Immortal True Gods have lived for several billion years, and while a portion of that lifespan was likely consumed in places of Time Acceleration, they have indeed lived for several billion years.

Looking at it now, their lifespans are running out; they can participate in at most a few more Immortal True God Battles before they must go to challenge the True Ancestor realm, otherwise, once their lifespan limit is reached, they will not be able to survive, and even a Dao Ancestor would be unable to reverse time and space to resurrect them.

"Paying such a high price, and with their strength unable to advance even an inch, those of the same generation as them are likely already among the top-tier True Ancestors of the Three Thousand Great Realms!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

And by lingering as an Immortal True God for so long, will it really not affect their future attempt to reach Dao Ancestor?

What kind of promises did those Dao Ancestors give them to make them willing to stay at this level?

Or is it that they were also forced, not daring to attempt the True Ancestor realm?

Ye Tian did not ponder too deeply, silently waiting for the Top Ten matches of the Immortal True God Battle.

Regardless, he must secure a spot in the top three.

For him, once he achieves the top three, he will truly take off!

Soon.

The Top Ten matches began.

The first match featured Qianying, one of the top three from the previous session; he is an Immortal True God of the Demon Race, and his aura is terrifying. His opponent, an Immortal True God whose strength is not inferior to Ye Tian's, is Xuanyangzi from the Hunyuan Dao Palace.

Boom!!!!

Qianying and Xuanyangzi clashed.

Upon making his move, Qianying displayed three Primordial Great Thousand Dao Techniques, all of which had reached the limit of the first stage.

These three Primordial Great Thousand Dao Techniques are the Demon Dragon Indestructible Art, the Abyssal True Dragon Art, and the Ten Directions Dragon Blood Art. All three are related to dragons, and Qianying is, in fact, from the Abyssal Demon Dragon Clan of the Demon Race, which is also the race to which the Abyssal Dao Ancestor belongs.

After the three Primordial Great Thousand Dao Techniques were unleashed, Qianying's power, defense, and even speed surpassed Xuanyangzi's.

Boom!!!!

Wielding an Innate Supreme Treasure staff, Qianying struck fiercely, directly sending Xuanyangzi flying; his terrifying power was simply crushing Xuanyangzi.

"Kill!"

Qianying was like a mad demon, attacking Xuanyangzi relentlessly, beating him until he had no power to resist. Even when Xuanyangzi used his trump cards, he could not break through Qianying's defense.

Moreover, such matches do not allow the use of means provided by Dao Ancestors; otherwise, it is a violation.

In a short while, Xuanyangzi was already severely wounded.

In the end, at the cost of being severely wounded and near death, Xuanyangzi only managed to slightly injure Qianying.

"I concede!"

Xuanyangzi shouted in a weak voice.

Whoosh!

The battle ended, Xuanyangzi was whisked away by the Dao Ancestor of the Hunyuan Dao Palace, and the referee announced that Qianying had won the match.

"The Demon Race's Qianying is indeed terrifying; three Primordial Great Thousand Dao Techniques, and he also possesses a Great Thousand Dao Body, which has reached the Consummation Realm. His strength is superior to mine."

Ye Tian thought to himself.

If not for the fifth stage of the Great Dao Sacrifice Source Technique, he would have no way to defeat this Qianying.

After all, the man has cultivated for billions of years, while he himself has only cultivated for how long?

Furthermore, he could also sense that the number of Great Thousand Dao Techniques stacked on this Qianying was terrifyingly high; even if cultivating more Great Thousand Dao Techniques could no longer increase his strength, they were still of some slight use, at least making him more comprehensive in all aspects.

Subsequently.

Match after match proceeded, and those three Immortal True Gods all crushed the other Immortal True Gods; no one could shake their top three positions.

Not long after, it was Ye Tian's turn.

His opponent was not one of those three Immortal True Gods, but since he couldn't avoid them now, he would still encounter them later; there was no escaping it.

"Wuhen Sword Mountain, Luo Wuhen!"

"Taixuan Sacred Mountain, Ye Tian!"

After the introductions, Ye Tian and Luo Wuhen clashed.

Rumble!!!

Both went all out, engaging in a continuous battle.

Compared to Luo Wuhen, Ye Tian only had a slight advantage in the Chaos Great Thousand Dao; in other aspects, he had no particular advantage, and the opponent had even richer combat experience and had even comprehended more Great Thousand Dao Techniques.

Yet, after a long struggle, Ye Tian ultimately defeated Luo Wuhen at the cost of being severely wounded.

The first round of the Top Ten battles concluded, and many True Ancestors and even Dao Ancestors had a rough idea in their minds.

"Brother Ye's ranking is likely at the level of sixth or seventh!"

Sword Star and the other senior brothers thought to themselves.

Although he could not enter the top three, being able to enter the Top Ten was already quite remarkable; the key was that Ye Tian had only been cultivating for a very short time!

In terms of potential, he was absolutely the highest among these ten Immortal True Gods.

Soon, the second round of the Top Ten assessments began, and Ye Tian fought his second battle in the Top Ten; although his opponent this time was not one of those three, they were still extremely powerful, having mastered two Primordial Great Thousand Dao Techniques—one at the limit of the first stage, and one at the initial level of the first stage.

Yet even so, the opponent's strength was still more formidable than Ye Tian's.

Ye Tian's opponent this time was a woman, and the only woman among the Top Ten; she hailed from the Taisu Sacred Land, one of the female factions within the Three Thousand Realms, and was a disciple of the Dao Ancestor Taisu, named Feng Zixuan.

When Ye Tian engaged Feng Zixuan in battle, she unleashed her two Hunyuan-level Great Thousand Dao Techniques.

One was an Attack Element Hunyuan-level Great Thousand Dao Technique—Hunyuan Purple Light, and the other was a recovery-type Hunyuan-level Great Thousand Dao Technique—Hunyuan Blood Derivation Art.

The one Ye Tian feared most was undoubtedly the Hunyuan Blood Derivation Art; even if Ye Tian managed to wound her, she could quickly recover by utilizing this Hunyuan-level Great Thousand Dao Technique.

Very quickly.

Ye Tian's body was struck by the Hunyuan Purple Light, and even with the Hunyuan Great Thousand Dao Technique known as the Slaughter Demon God Body, Ye Tian was still injured.

Gradually, Ye Tian's injuries worsened.

The senior brothers from Taixuan Sacred Mountain all felt that Ye Tian was going to lose this time, but Ye Tian was not flustered at all.

Suddenly.

Ye Tian unleashed the Great Dao Sacrifice Source Technique.

Boom!

One of Ye Tian's Yongheng-level Innate Ability potentials was exhausted and sacrificed to the Great Dao Origin; the power of the Great Dao Origin surged into Ye Tian's body, temporarily lending its strength to him.

In a single breath, Ye Tian's aura became vastly more immense.
