Chapter 66: The Difficulty of Comprehending Space Artistic Conception

"An Innate Divine Ability is truly powerful; I only just awakened my Innate Divine Ability, and I instantly killed a Scale Clan Grandmaster!"

Li Haoyang was slightly excited.

If he hadn't had his Innate Divine Ability, he would have at most fought to a draw with this Scale Clan Grandmaster, but by unleashing his Innate Divine Ability, he killed the opponent instantly.

Of course, the opponent had also been careless, not expecting him to possess an Innate Divine Ability; otherwise, if the opponent had dodged at all costs, his Innate Divine Ability might not have necessarily hit the target.

After killing this Scale Clan Grandmaster, Li Haoyang happily looted the various Strange Treasures on the opponent's body.

"Truly wealthy; there are actually so many Strange Treasures, and even a Mid-grade Strange Treasure."

Having gained so many Strange Treasures, Li Haoyang was in a great mood.

Whoosh!

Ye Tian appeared here.

"Mentor, you are too amazing; you actually killed a Scale Clan Grandmaster!" Ye Tian praised him wildly.

"Alright, it was just killing a Primary Grandmaster," Li Haoyang said modestly.

"Mentor, what method did you use to kill this Scale Clan Grandmaster? It doesn't seem to be a Strange Art?" Ye Tian asked curiously.

Li Haoyang was in a good mood after killing the Scale Clan Grandmaster, so he patiently explained to Ye Tian: "What I just unleashed was an Innate Divine Ability, which stands above Strange Arts. The most powerful Strange Arts are merely S-rank Strange Arts; there are no such things as SS-Class Strange Arts above them. And above Strange Arts are Innate Divine Abilities. Any Innate Divine Ability is superior to an S-rank Strange Art. For example, mine is the B-Class Innate Divine Ability Water Fire Flood Dragon Kill, which uses the power of water and fire to directly crush the enemy's body."

"Innate Divine Ability!"

Ye Tian was very interested.

"Mentor, how does one cultivate an Innate Divine Ability?" He really wanted to cultivate an Innate Divine Ability; wouldn't his strength be insanely awesome then!

Li Haoyang smiled and said: "Don't even think about it for now. To possess an Innate Divine Ability, it isn't something you cultivate, but something you awaken. In reality, Innate Divine Abilities are also imitations of the alien races in the Earth Cave World. For example, my Water Fire Flood Dragon Kill Innate Divine Ability was only awakened after I cultivated the Water-Fire Flood Dragon Body and broke through to the Grandmaster realm. Therefore, if you want to obtain an Innate Divine Ability, you must cultivate a special physique and then break through to the Grandmaster realm; there is no other way. Of course, it is possible that my knowledge is limited, but based on what I know, this is the only method."

"That means for me, before becoming a Grandmaster, I have no way to obtain an Innate Divine Ability?" Ye Tian sighed.

"That is the case!" Li Haoyang said softly.

"If an Innate Divine Ability is awakened, wouldn't the Strange Arts cultivated previously be a waste of effort? Won't they be useless in the future?" Ye Tian asked again.

"How could they be useless!" Li Haoyang explained again: "An Innate Divine Ability consumes too much of one's own energy. Even for me now, unleashing it three times at most is my limit; it cannot be used as a conventional method. The truly conventional methods are still Strange Arts. Moreover, cultivating a special physique might allow one to transform the corresponding Strange Art into an Innate Divine Ability. For example, you have the Golden Body Technique; if you cultivate a special physique like the Diamond Body, you might awaken a Golden Body Divine Ability, which is actually an Innate Divine Ability transformed from the Golden Body Technique."

"So that's how it is!"

Ye Tian understood a little.

"Ye Tian, let's head back!"

Li Haoyang took Ye Tian and headed toward the East Sea Fortress.

On the way, Ye Tian mentioned the matter of the fake mission at the East Sea Fortress earlier.

Li Haoyang frowned, "It seems a member of the Evil God Society has infiltrated the East Sea Fortress. I will have the East Sea Fortress investigate, and we will definitely catch them."

Very quickly.

They returned to the East Sea Fortress.

Li Haoyang immediately had people seal off the East Sea Fortress and then went to check who had transmitted the message to Ye Tian. Even if the Evil God Society member had erased their tracks, there were still ways to find them.

Sure enough.

In less than half an hour, an Ability Master staff member who had worked diligently at the East Sea Fortress for ten years was caught.

However, the person was not a core member of the Evil God Society and did not know much intelligence, so they could only kill them.

……

Scale Clan.

Imperial City.

Jinbaer's face was gloomy at this moment.

He had already received news that Aodun was dead, killed by the newly promoted Grandmaster of the East Sea Fortress, Li Haoyang.

Moreover, Ye Tian had been assassinated once and would certainly be cautious; even if he were to take action himself, he might not necessarily succeed in killing him again.

Furthermore, he dared not storm into the East Sea Fortress; that would be courting death!

Subsequently, he sent a message to the Ghost Shadow Envoy to abandon this mission for the time being.

The Scale Clan had already lost one Grandmaster, and he had no way to continue the assassination. If the Ghost Shadow Envoy still wanted to kill Ye Tian, they should hire someone else; the Scale Clan did not want to continue losing another Grandmaster.

Of course.

If a suitable opportunity arose, the Scale Clan would still take action.

Somewhere in Xia Country.

A hidden location.

The Ghost Shadow Envoy was shrouded in a black robe, holding a piece of intelligence in their hand, revealing a sinister smile.

"A very impressive little fellow, to be able to save his own life from a Scale Clan Grandmaster and hold out until the rescue from the East Sea Fortress arrived. How did this guy manage it? Could it be that he has a rare life-saving item on him?" The Ghost Shadow Envoy could not figure it out.

But clearly, it was not suitable to continue the assassination now; they had to find a suitable opportunity.

……

After being assassinated once, Ye Tian was indeed well-behaved for a period of time.

He would at most cultivate within a five-kilometer radius of the East Sea Fortress and would not run too far.

Under his diligent cultivation, his cultivation level improved rapidly.

Additionally, he was also working hard to comprehend the Space Artistic Conception.

It was just that without an S-Class Space Treasure, and without many space-element Strange Arts for him to cultivate, it was difficult to enter this field.

No matter how high one's comprehension is, if it is like duckweed without roots, it is useless.

It is just like how no matter how much of a genius a person is, if they have no textbooks to read, they still won't know how to solve those problems.

East Sea Fortress.

Ye Tian arrived at the residence of his mentor, Li Haoyang.

"Greetings, Mentor!"

Ye Tian smiled and called out.

"What are you here for, kid? Could it be that you're looking to spar with me on close-quarters combat techniques? But once you reach the level of Artistic Conception, sparring won't improve your combat much anymore!" Li Haoyang said.

"Mentor, I have come to ask you about something," Ye Tian stated his request. "I want to comprehend Space Artistic Conception. If I can comprehend Space Artistic Conception, that Scale Clan Grandmaster from last time wouldn't be able to catch up to me!"

"Space Artistic Conception!!!!" Li Haoyang gasped; Ye Tian's goal was truly high.

"Ahem, Ye Tian, the difficulty of comprehending Space Artistic Conception is more than ten times that of other Artistic Conceptions. A Ninth Sequence Space Artistic Conception is comparable to the Eighth Sequence of other Artistic Conceptions. Moreover, the hardest part of Space Artistic Conception is the Entry Level; it is much harder than comprehending Sword Intent or Blade Intent."

Li Haoyang said.

"Mentor, I know it's difficult, that's why I'm asking for your guidance!" Ye Tian asked sincerely.

Li Haoyang did not speak, silently deep in thought.

After a long while, he finally spoke: "Your comprehension is monstrous; perhaps by directly observing a Space Rift, there is a tiny glimmer of hope to comprehend Space Artistic Conception."

"A Space Rift? Where is there one?"

Ye Tian was somewhat curious.

The space channels and Secret Realm gates that have been opened are all created using Array methods; they belong to solidified space channels and do not contain the changing mysteries of space, so they are of no help.

He had looked at them before and had not gained a single insight.

Only naturally born Space Rifts, which are constantly changing, can manifest the power of spatial mysteries and offer hope of comprehending Space Artistic Conception.

"There is one on Earth!"

Li Haoyang mentioned a location.

Bermuda!
