Chapter 183: The Groups Innate Talent
Emperor Offsprings are the pinnacle of Bloodline Aristocratic as the direct bloodline of an Emperor runs through their body. As such, not only are they extremely talented when it comes to cultivating, their bloodlines provide them with unimaginable powers.
Throughout the history of the Myriad Emperor World, there have been a few Emperor Offsprings born, and the majority of them managed to follow their parent’s footsteps and also proved the Dao. Only a few failed during their generation’s Heaven Will Battle.
However, the shocking news that this group was about to receive today was far from over.
"What’s more," said Wang Tian to his son. "He’s not even the only Emperor Offspring that has shown up in this generation. According to the information that we received, the Golden Crow Clan has a Three-legged Golden Crow born in this generation."
"Wait, father, that does not make any sense. Where does this other Emperor Offspring come from?"
Logically speaking, since in each generation there can only be one Great Emperor, there also can only be one Emperor Offspring--unless the Emperor gave birth to twins.
"This Three-legged Golden Crow is the child of Emperor True Yang Fire. However, she failed during her Heaven Will Battle. But, she slept in blood stones for countless generations until she was woken up in this generation.
"However, you do not need to worry about her for now as she is already in the Peak of the Supreme Realm and just waiting for the Heaven Will Battle. Well, unless she decides to re-cultivate."
Wang Wei took notice of the fact that his father used the pronoun "she" to identify the gender of this Heaven Chosen, however, he still had some doubts, "How do you know that she will not be a problem?"
Wang Tian looked at his son, secretly nodding in satisfaction in how observant he always was.
"After she was awakening, many of the Emperor Lineages received the news. So, we banded together to put pressure on the Golden Crow together. We agreed that she should not intervene in the younger generation’s growth in any shape or form, otherwise, we will not hesitate to exterminate their clans."
Wang Wei could guess the reason that the Emperor Lineages acted this way. In this Glorious Age where many powerful and extremely talented Heaven Chosens are born, many people believe that they have a chance to win this generation’s Heaven Will.
However, the appearance of this Three-legs Golden Crow might actually ruin that chance given the overwhelming advantages that she had over the still growing Heaven Chosens of this generation.
So, they banded together to cut the danger in the bud.
However, Wang Wei guessed that the Yang Clan was not feeling very well now given the fact that their Emperor Offsprings have to face one of his kind, and one that is way more powerful and more experienced than him.
Of course the people suffering the most were the Samadhi True Fire Sect. If they do not have a Heaven Chosen to represent them on the world’s stage, then their situation will become very passive, being stuck between the other two factions.
After watching the fire phenomenon, Wang Wei and his group returned to his room to continue their discussion. Wang Wei then asked them what talents they have received.
Li Jun received two talents: one Growth and one Taboo, which was a great surprise to Wang Wei. However, after hearing what the taboo talent was, he sighed before saying, "Hopefully, there never comes a day that you have to use this talent."
After that, Wang Wei looked at Yan Liling, who then explained:
"My talent is an Extraordinary one called Pill Synthesis. It allows me to create any pill formula just by deciding the function of the pill."
"What do you mean?" asked Wang Wei. It’s not that he did not understand her worlds, but he simply could not believe that such a heaven defying talents exist, let alone it is just an extraordinary one.
Yan Liling organized her words for a while, "An example would be that I wanted to create a brand new pill that can increase origin essence. All I have to do is activate my talents, then all the materials, the ration, and the runes needed to invent this pill will appear in my mind."
"Isn’t that a little heaven defying?" suddenly asked Tie Gang. Even with the little knowledge he has absorbed in the past few years, he knew that this was simply terrifying.
Yan Liling nodded her head, "You are right. All the recipes that I create have to be based on my knowledge reserve. So, if I have no knowledge of something, it is impossible for it to work.
"For example, if I wanted to create a pill that provides immortality, then my talent would be useless as this scope of knowledge is beyond my understanding."
Wang Wei nodded as this restriction made more sense, but he still said:
"Your talent is not that simple. I’m guessing that even if something is out of the scope of your knowledge, this talent will probably still guide you to ways to make up for it right?"
Yan Liling was a little surprised by Wang Wei’s words, "Big brother, you are so smart that you figure this out so quickly. In the past few years, I tried to make a Top Grade Earth Tier Pill, however, I kept failing. However, when I tried using my talent, I suddenly felt a mysterious power guiding me to find the answer to the reason that I kept failing.
"After that, I guess that this talent can probably guide me to find the answers to any problem I’m facing when it comes to Alchemy--even if it is outside my expertise."
Wang Wei nodded with a little bit of envy on his face. Although his alchemy talent is also very high, it is nothing compared to the Innate Talent of Yan Liling.
Moreover, in the past few years, he has been more focused on array and refining, and did not pay attention to alchemy as much--especially since Yan Liling came to the team and took the role of Alchemist.
Although Wang Wei was a little envious, it only lasted for a brief moment. He did not really care as he did not really consider himself an alchemist. The only reason that he studied these professions was to prepare himself for the worse.
If one day he needed this knowledge to save his life, then he would be ready or prepared.
After asking about Yan Liling’s talent, it was Tie Gang’s turn, so he said:
"My talent is a growth one called Life-Sharing. It allows me to share vitality with people around me. The more people there are, the more vitality is shared. Unfortunately, this ability is useless in a frontal battle as the person who shared vitality with me has to be weaker than me by a whole realm and has to be present."
However Wang Wei’s eyes lit up after hearing about this talent, "You are overlooking the true purpose of this talent: training troops. Imagine if you create a large army that links their vitality together.
"These soldiers would essentially be immortal because as long as one soldier is injured, they can absorb the vitality of the entire army to heal themselves. Unless someone used a powerful attack that instantly killed the soldiers, essentially they would be undying cockroaches."
Tie Gang’s eyes also lit up after hearing this. At first he thought that his Innate Talent was lame due to its severe restrictions, however it appeared that he overlooked its true function.
This talent was not meant for single battle, but to raise powerful troops. Tie Gang knew that the reason that he was chosen to be one of Wang Wei’s generals was because of the charisma he displayed in the lower realm.
However, in the past few years, Tie Gang has been worried that he would not be able to do his job properly, that his so-called charisma only works in the lower realm.
However, with this Innate Talent, it is not difficult to create an Undead Army that brings fear to all of Wang Wei’s enemies.
Tie Gang then suddenly remembered how he trained his army back in the Iron Fist Kingdom. He installed the fever of war, death and blood into all his soldiers, into the heart of all his citizens.
Now, all he has to do is recreate the same fever again. What’s more, with this talent, he can be even more extreme and completely remove the fear of death in his soldiers.
After thinking about this, an extreme confidence suddenly emanated from Tie Gang’s body. He then gazed at Li Jun with a provoking look on his face before looking away.
Li Jun however just smiled as he could guess what this guy was thinking. More importantly, he knew that his big brother was using this method to secretly encourage Tie Gang and bring back the confident Iron Fist King that dared to challenge him during the trial.
Wang Wei and his team talked about many things for a few hours before everyone left to do their own thing.
As for Wang Wei, he went to the Library and took out a booklet with the title [Rainbow Escape Art]. This was the last preparation he needed to do before his fight with Han Li a year later.
