Chapter 124: The Defense Secret: Understood!


    "Silver-tier de technique!"


    Ye Tian was incredibly excited. The silver-tier de technique he had so desperately yearned for turned out to be of his own creation.


    If anyone were told that a grandmaster had created a silver-tier de technique, no one would believe it.


    Of course, this achievement was not solely due to the Enlightenment Stele; Ye Tian''s top-tier talent in de techniques also yed a significant role.


    Without that elite talent in de techniques, even if he had the talent for enlightenment, he wouldn''t have been able to create a silver-tier de technique. In fact, even with average talent, creating a bronze-tier de technique would be highly unlikely.


    It took exceptional talentbined with the extraordinary Enlightenment Stele to create this silver-tier de technique.


    "I have a feeling that given enough time, I could even create a gold-tier de technique. A month is far from enough, even a year might not suffice!" Ye Tian spected.


    Therefore, he abandoned the idea of developing a gold-tier de technique.


    For this self-created silver-tier de technique, Ye Tian chose a name—Heavenly Extreme sh!


    ording to Ye Tian''s calctions, the Heavenly Extreme sh was a perfect fit for him and would boost his strength far more than it would for others. The entry-level Heavenly Extreme sh could amplify the attack by eight times, the intermediate level by nine times, the advanced level by ten times, and the perfected level by twelve times.


    Typically, a silver-tier attack-type de technique would offer an amplification of around eleven times at most.


    However, it wasn''t just the twelve-fold amplification of attack power that made Heavenly Extreme sh formidable. It could also double one''s speed when mastered to the perfect level.


    If word got out about such a silver-tier de technique, it would certainly incite fiercepetition among those with de talents, even to the point of life and death struggles.


    "Mastering de techniques isn''t the real purpose of the Enlightenment Stele. The real benefit lies in improving one''sprehension. It''s because myprehension has improved that I''ve been able to create a silver-tier de technique. As for the so-called increase in intelligence, that''s merely the residual effects of the Enlightenment Stele. How ridiculous it is for these heavenly kirin beasts to consider this a benefit! I can''t waste the remaining twenty or so days; I should focus onprehending de intent," Ye Tian thought.


    Ye Tian believed that only by using de techniques effectively could the true purpose of the Enlightenment Stele be realized.


    His current understanding of de intent was only 21%. But with the help of the Enlightenment Stele, he could definitely improve quickly.


    Comprehending!


    Countlessplex mysteries of de intent flickered through Ye Tian''s mind as he started to absorb the essence of de intent.


    Gradually, his understanding of de intent soared.


    21%!


    22%!


    23%!


    24%!


    25%!


    His understanding was improving every moment. This rate of improvement was unachievable in the outside world; a day of hard practice here was equivalent to a month or even two in the outside world.


    Given his top-tier de talent, the rate of improvement was simply staggering!


    Ten days had passed.


    "60% de intent!"


    Ye Tian opened his eyes, filled with excitement.


    Achieving 60% de intent meant that he could master a silver-tier de technique to its perfected state. If he were to improve further, reaching 70% de intent, he would qualify to practice gold-tier de techniques.


    The higher the de intent, the harder it is to improve. Ye Tian calcted that with the remaining days, he could not bring his de intent to 70%, and even if he did, mastering a gold-tier de technique would be out of the question.


    Thus, Ye Tian was in no hurry to continueprehending de intent.


    "Maybe I can try improving my special talents," Ye Tian considered.


    Other Tianlin beasts could improve their unique talents, and naturally, so could he. Although the probability was low, what if he really could make that improvement? Wouldn''t that be a great gain?


    Ye Tian chose toprehend defensive talents.


    Deep within his soul...


    Deep within his soul, Ye Tian activated his innate talent for defense,bining it with his enlightenment talent. His talent mark was a pseudo-mystery level, yet when manifested in this ferocious beast''s body, it was merely top-tier. However, this didn''t mean that his talent mark had also been downgraded.


    So, Ye Tian wasprehending a pseudo-mystery-level defensive talent. Influenced by the aura of the Enlightenment Stele, he remained motionless, as calm as an ancient bell, with an increasingly mysterious aura enveloping


    Three days passed, and suddenly Ye Tian felt as though he had gained some insight. "Why is it ''pseudo''? Because I haven''t yet grasped the true mystery. A top-tier talent is the limit of a talent; the so-called mystery talents are actually just top-tier talents,bined with the mystery to form a stronger talent. And only those with top-tier talents have the qualification toprehend mysteries; top-tier talents are the threshold for understanding mysteries."


    Although Ye Tian had this insight, he hadn''t yetprehended the mystery. A mystery is a manifestation of thew, also called the "Law of Mystery," which Ye Tian didn''t yet know. He only knew that mysteries existed in the universe and in all things. Only a talent that hasprehended the mystery is a perfect talent that truly belongs to oneself!


    Comprehending a mystery was extremely difficult, even for Ye Tian, whoseprehension ability had been enhanced many times under the Enlightenment Stele.


    With only about ten days left, could heprehend it? Ye Tian didn''t know, but he was unwilling to give up.


    Comprehend! Comprehend! Comprehend!


    Ye Tian''s whole body and soul were immersed in defensive mysteries. Time ticked away, and there was only one day left before the Enlightenment Stele''s period would end.


    On thest day, Ye Tian had a sh of insight and numerous realizations flooded his mind. "So this is the mystery of defense!" Ye Tianughed.


    He activated his defensive talent, and its power began to fully integrate with his body. A strange fluctuation emanated from him; it was the power of mystery. Contrary to his expectations, even after grasping the defensive mystery, his talent did not reach the mystery level.


    Defensive Talent: Pseudo-Mystery (30%)


    The so-called 30% meant that Ye Tian''s defensive talent had integrated 30% with his body,pared to zero before. This indicated that he had taken a big step on the road to mystery-level defensive talent; when the integration reached 100%, his defensive talent wouldpletely transform into a mystery-level defensive talent—a truly game-changing talent!


    Ye Tian tested it out; his pseudo-mystery-level defensive talent was no longer boosted 30 times, but 35 times. Although it was only a minor improvement, it was a good start.


    He had already gained a trace of insight into the defensive mystery. As long as he continued toprehend, he would inevitably reach the level of mystery-level defensive talent, which was far better than others who had no hope at all. "More importantly, I also have the copy talent. If I encounter a pseudo-mystery-level talent, I can copy it, and the degree of integration will progress quickly!"


    Ye Tian looked forward to this day, but also knew that the chance of encountering another pseudo-mystery-level defensive talent, or any other pseudo-mystery-level talents, was extremely small.


    It was because he hadid the perfect foundation that he could step into the realm of pseudo-mystery-level talents. Others, if they couldn''ty a perfect foundation, wouldn''t be able to step into the realm of pseudo-mystery-level talents unless they had special opportunities.


    "Not thinking too much, let''s continue toprehend!"


    Ye Tian prepared to use thest day toprehend the defensive mystery and elevate his understanding of it. However, something unexpected happened...
