Ye Tian engaged in combat with the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
Immediately, Ye Tian activated his Soul Spike talent. His soul power transformed into a spike, piercing towards the soul of the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
However, the Nine Lives Cat Emperor just shook its head, without even a scream.
âSoul Talent! Haha, I would have feared your soul talent before, but I obtained a soul treasure in the Hall of Inheritance, which protects my soul. Your soul attacks barely harm me!â boasted the Nine Lives Cat Emperor proudly.
âSoul Talent is useless?â
Ye Tianâs expression turned grave.
The strength of the Nine Lives Cat Emperor was far greater than that of Emperor-level ferocious beasts like the Green Ox Overlord. With the ineffectiveness of his soul attack talent, killing the Nine Lives Cat Emperor would cost him dearly.
âNo matter what, it must be killed. It seems I need to display all my strength this time!â Ye Tian thought to himself.
Up until now, he had never displayed his full strength against any opponent, whether it was the Green Ox Overlord or the Flame Overlord; he had always held back some power.
But facing the Nine Lives Cat Emperor, if he continued to hold back, he would be in grave danger.
âTime Talent!â
Ye Tian activated his Time Talent, slowing down time tenfold around the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
Suddenly, the movements and even the thoughts of the Nine Lives Cat Emperor seemed to slow down tenfold in Ye Tianâs eyes, for this was the power of time, beyond the capability of Emperor-level ferocious beasts.
Although the Nine Lives Cat Emperor could not see the power of time, it sensed the changes around it and in its thoughts, experiencing an eerie feeling.
âItâs time!â
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor was startled.
Time around it had slowed down manyfold, while time in other areas remained unchanged.
Abruptly.
A blade of light attacked, and its body, affected by the Time Talent, failed to perceive the trajectory of the light in time.
Bang!!!
The light struck its body but was blocked by its defenses.
Although it had only transformed a small part of its body into a divine body, its defense had greatly increased, and Ye Tianâs Star Slash only caused a minor injury.
âSpace Compression!!!â
Ye Tian activated his Space Talent, compressing the space around the Nine Lives Cat Emperor, squeezing it.
Crack, crack, crack!!!
The pressure of space came, making the Nine Lives Cat Emperor very uncomfortable.
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor struggled hard, causing the space to tremble.
At a certain moment!
With a loud bang, the Nine Lives Cat Emperor broke through Ye Tianâs space compression. This move had just been initially grasped by Ye Tian, and its power was not yet formidable. Otherwise, the Nine Lives Cat Emperor would not have broken the space compression so easily.
Following this.
Several spatial blades appeared, slashing towards the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
While the Nine Lives Cat Emperor, constrained by both space and time talents, couldnât dodge, it activated its defensive talents with all its might, using its half-divine bodyâs advantage to withstand Ye Tianâs repeated spatial blade assaults.
Of course.
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor was injured!
âTime Talent, Space Talent, these are two supreme treasure talents. Iâve seen ferocious beasts with Space Talent, but none with a higher level than yours. Your Space Talent must have reached the Pseudo-Mystic level. And Time Talent, Iâve never heard of anyone possessing it, but you have it. What kind of ferocious beast are you, to be so against the heavens?â
âHonestly, I am very envious of your talents. If I could possess your body, it would be a heaven-defying opportunity. Unfortunately, I donât have the talent to take over bodies,â the Nine Lives Cat Emperor exclaimed, astounded by Ye Tianâs incredible talents.
Suddenly.
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor took out a claw weapon and fused it into its claws.
This was a Moonlight level claw weapon.
âNine Lives Claw!â
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor lightly swiped, and space itself was marked with claw trails. It was incredible that it could leave marks in space with mere strength, showcasing its terrifying attack power!
With the boost of the Moonlight level claw weapon and the execution of the Silver level claw technique â Nine Lives Claw, the Nine Lives Cat Emperorâs combat power skyrocketed.
Bang, bang, bang!!!
The spatial blades deployed by Ye Tian were also destroyed by the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
Swoosh!
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor charged towards Ye Tian, its murderous intent engulfing the void.
âExtreme Speed Talent!â
Ye Tian activated his God-level Extreme Speed talent, instantly surpassing the Nine Lives Cat Emperor in speed.
If the Nine Lives Cat Emperor hadnât been affected by the Space and Time Talents, its speed would definitely surpass Ye Tian. Unfortunately, under the suppression of Time and Space Talents, its combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
Ye Tian, wielding a Morning Star level blade, occasionally executed Star Slash and long-distance space-breaking strikes, continuously making it difficult for the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
The Nine Lives Cat Emperorâs speed was completely inferior to Ye Tian, unable to injure him.
âDamn it, this guyâs strength is not even close to mine. If it werenât for the Time and Space Talents, I could easily kill him!â the Nine Lives Cat Emperor cursed internally.
Indeed, without the Time and Space Talents, Ye Tian would be no match for the Nine Lives Cat Emperor, whose strength was immense, second only to the Seven Stars Emperor level fighters.
In fact, even Seven Stars Emperor level fighters would find it very difficult to kill the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
Without the Time and Space Talents, Ye Tian would at best be considered the weakest among the Six Stars Emperor level, naturally no match for the Nine Lives Cat Emperor.
However, Time and Space Talents are also a form of strength. What warrior doesnât rely on talents? Without special talents, wouldnât that make them no different from ordinary warriors?
Ten minutes passed!
Ye Tianâs combat power remained at its peak. The Devouring Blood Talent absorbed blood stored in his personal space to fully recover him, with little to no Yuan force expenditure.
Meanwhile, the Nine Lives Cat Emperor was significantly worn down, suffering injuries that were not severe but not light either.
At this point, the Nine Lives Cat Emperor sought to flee.
It knew it couldnât kill Ye Tian and feared that if the battle continued, it might end up dead.
âEscape!â
The Nine Lives Cat Emperor desperately tried to flee, but Ye Tian was determined to kill it.
No matter how it tried to escape, it couldnât break free from the blockade of Spactial Confinement and the influence of Time Talent.
The chase continued, with the two spreading their battlefield over tens of millions of miles.
Mountains and rivers shattered, and space cracked open, as if signaling the end of the world.
Countless ferocious beasts died along their path, with even two Emperor-level ferocious beasts perishing out of curiosity.
In the blink of an eye.
A day of fierce battle passed.
At this time, Ye Tianâs spirits slightly waned, but his overall strength was still at its peak, while the Nine Lives Cat Emperor was in a dire state.
Countless minor injuries accumulated into severe wounds!
âDamned monkey, what if I give you a few treasures and you let me go? Arenât you chasing me for the treasures from the Hall of Inheritance? Iâll give them to you. Thereâs no need for us to fight to the death!â the Nine Lives Cat Emperor pleaded.
However, it secretly planned to transform its divine body as soon as it returned, quickly advancing to the God level ferocious beast realm, and then seek out Ye Tian for revenge.
Unfortunately, it was mistaken!
Ye Tianâs true motive for killing it was not for those treasures; they were just a bonus.
Ye Tianâs main purpose was to eliminate a threat to humanity!
Because Ye Tian was human, not the monkey the Nine Lives Cat Emperor thought he was!
