The Tiger Claw Squid was an Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beast with considerable strength. Ye Tian ignored the squid and continued searching for the Lighthouse Jellyfish.
With Copying Talent, no aquatic Ferocious Beast could evade his detection. Now that he had reached Elite Martial Artist, the detection radius of Copying Talent had increased from three meters to ten meters.
Within ten meters, he could detect the Talent of all living beings.
Time passed slowly as Ye Tian scanned many aquatic Ferocious Beasts. The most dangerous encounter was with an Advanced Ferocious Beast. Luckily, he detected it from ten meters away and managed to evade it since the beast did not use spiritual power to detect him.
Half an hour later, Ye Tian finally found a small group of Lighthouse Jellyfish.
Species: Lighthouse Jellyfish
Bloodline Talent: Basic-grade
Healing Talent: Top
"A Top Healing Talent?!"
Ye Tian was truly shocked.
He had assumed the Lighthouse Jellyfish's Talent would be Intermediate-grade or High-grade, but he never expected a Top Talent.
He had never encountered a Top Talent before, and now here it was on the Lighthouse Jellyfish.
"I must copy it, no matter what!"
Ye Tian said excitedly.
The single Lighthouse Jellyfish was weak and unlikely to notice Ye Tian, so he cautiously approached one.
At the moment his right hand touched the Lighthouse Jellyfish, he copied its Top Healing Talent.
Immediately after, Ye Tian quickly retreated to avoid provoking an attack from the entire group.
One Lighthouse Jellyfish wasn't scary, but a group was very dangerous. Since he was in Death Lake, he didn't want to provoke all the Ferocious Beasts there. Even with Shadow Talent, escaping would be impossible.
Soon Ye Tian exited Death Lake.
As he stood on the shore, he finally exhaled in relief.
"I must leave immediately!"
He hurried away from Death Lake toward a small cave he had stayed in before.
Inside the cave, Ye Tian immediately began to fuse the Top Healing Talent.
Boom!
An unimaginable transformation began.
If one could observe his cells, they would see profound changes; every cell was undergoing massive evolution.
The pain this time far surpassed any previous experience, yet Ye Tian was excited—he was painfully happy.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Tian felt a refreshing surge throughout his body.
He stood and checked his Talents:
Human: Ye Tian
Cultivation Talent: High-grade
Speed Talent: Basic-grade
Blade Talent: Intermediate-grade
Shadow Talent: Basic-grade
Healing Talent: Top
"Let's test the Top Healing Talent!"
Ye Tian took a small knife and cut a small wound on his arm.
Then a miraculous scene occurred: within less than a second, the wound healed.
"Hiss—"
Ye Tian gasped. The healing effect was astonishing.
With such a Healing Talent, unless he suffered fatal wounds, it would be very difficult to kill him. His survivability had increased by several levels instantly.
However, Ye Tian did not believe he was truly immortal.
Healing required energy; if his energy was depleted, the healing would fail.
If he truly met an opponent beyond his power, he might only delay death, not avoid it.
Strength was the most important.
After resting a night in the cave, early the next morning Ye Tian headed back to Seaside Base.
For the next half month, he hunted Ferocious Beasts fiercely and purchased a small truck, a new Yuan Force vehicle costing one million.
With the truck, he could carry more Ferocious Beasts daily, greatly increasing his income.
With Healing Talent, he was nearly invincible against Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beasts, and Advanced Ferocious Beasts were rare encounters.
Within half a month, he repaid his loan and saved five million plus large quantities of Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beast Blood.
With resources secure, Ye Tian planned to focus on cultivation and strength enhancement.
Elite Martial Artist cultivation tempered the blood and body simultaneously; the Yuan Force Body Tempering Method refined both in tandem.
Strength above 10,000 pounds marked entry to Elite Martial Artist, while the limit was 100,000 pounds. Ye Tian's strength was under 20,000 pounds, far from peak Elite Martial Artist.
But with multiple Talents, he could contend with Elite Martial Artists above 50,000 pounds and survive against peak Martial Artists.
Still, that wasn't enough.
He wanted to match peak Elite Martial Artists and even Great Martial Artists.
Unfortunately, most of his Talents were supportive, none were direct offensive.
"Next time, I must copy an offensive Talent!" Ye Tian resolved.
He had no hope of finding such Talents among Seaside Base's Martial Artists; his target was Ferocious Beasts, who had far more Talents. Once he locked on a Ferocious Beast, it was easier to find than hunting humans blindly.
But Ferocious Beasts with offensive Talents were more dangerous, and copying from them required great strength.
Therefore, Ye Tian trained intensely over the next half month.
Thanks to his Top Healing Talent, he was not afraid of injury from overtraining, so his cultivation speed skyrocketed.
After consuming countless Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beast Blood, Ye Tian's strength reached 30,000 pounds, a feat most Advanced Cultivation Talents could not achieve in months.
One day, he consulted a newly acquired, comprehensive Ferocious Beast atlas, searching for suitable targets.
"Great Strength Bear, an Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beast, twice as strong as normal, suspected to have Strength Talent."
Ye Tian shook his head.
Though the Great Strength Bear might possess Strength Talent, it was probably Lesser-grade Strength Talent—not ideal.
"Firebird, Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beast with Fire Talent, can easily incinerate ordinary Intermediate-grade Ferocious Beasts!"
He shook his head again.
Firebird's Fire Talent was only Basic-grade, a moderate boost insufficient to match peak Elite Martial Artists.
"Huh, this Ferocious Beast looks promising!"
Ye Tian's gaze fixed on a certain Ferocious Beast, his expression lighting with excitement.
