Chapter 476: Inheritance Talent: Treasure Refining

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

[Treasure Refining]

[Level: Transcendent]

[Rarity: Inheritance]

[Description: It could refine an object into a treasure and give it a Transcendent attribute. There is a certain chance to obtain a Rare piece.

[Note: This talent used to belong to a powerful yaksha and could only be inherited by someone with Perfect talent skills.]

It was a talent skill.

And it was an Inheritance talent skill.

Needless to say, it was a powerful skill.

And it explained why the yakshas had so many Transcendent objects.

However, the female yaksha probably had only just reached the Transcendent level. Otherwise, they would have a lot more Transcendent objects.

Moreover, she wasn’t very good at actual combat.

That was why she gave the Retribution Fire Trident and the Enchanting Chain to the yaksha king who went to Guobei County.

But the yaksha king was killed, and the two pieces became rewards for Dragon City.

In the end, she was killed by the treasures made by herself.

“This talent skill…”

Holding the glowing ball that represented the Inheritance talent, Ji Ye hesitated and didn’t break it open right away.

An Inheritance talent was invaluable.

It was definitely the most valuable reward he had received so far, even more than the Eye Painting Brush.

It felt even more valuable than SkyNet, which contained all the military technology of Ameagle.

After all, this one could “produce” Transcendent items in large quantities.

Although, strictly speaking, Ji Ye could fuse Transcendent items with Fusion as well, it wasn’t as direct as Treasure Refining.

In fact, based on the statistics of the confederate government, it was estimated that no more than 10 people from Earth had an Inheritance talent.

It was an estimation because most people chose not to reveal the rarity of their talent skills.

But the number was likely to be accurate.

Because of that, the Inheritance talent was very valuable.

And Ji Ye felt conflicted because he already had two talent skills.

If he were to learn this one, he would have three.

To an individual, they would live to have as many talent skills as possible.

But it might not be a good choice for a group as a whole to put so many resources on one person.

Using a talent skill would cost the power of providence, and an individual could only have a limited amount of it. It meant that no matter how many talent skills he had, the total number he could activate was fixed.

For the growth of the settlement, he should give the glowing ball to someone else.

For instance, he could give it to Elder Jiao and have him make technological objects.

Considering the big picture, this was actually the better choice.

“Study!”

However, after some consideration, Ji Ye still cracked open the glowing ball and let the silver light fuse into him.

It was like the last time when he didn’t object to other players selling their special invitation quotas.

Because he knew that everyone had a selfish side, including himself.

…

“The king and the queen are dead! Run!” the yakshas yelled in their own language.

The defeat and death of their two leaders was undoubtedly a hard blow on the yakshas’ morale.

By then, the remaining yakshas finally gave up and started fleeing in all directions.

In the sky, the Buddha Light was as bright as the sun, and Gongsun Sheng was attacking them with the dark clouds he controlled, not to mention that there was also a Transcendent Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon.

The only choice the yakshas had was to escape from the ground.

“Hoooo!”

A silver-winged yaksha ran as fast as he could toward the west of his settlement.

Ting! Ting! Ting!

He put his wings in front of him as shields. There was a layer of red light around him, and machine-gun bullets would bounce off right away.

Although Dragon City had powerful firearms, and by using them, even common people could make effective attacks on Extraordinary beings, they would work mostly on creatures of Extraordinary Rank-7 and below. This one was a Commander-level Extraordinary Rank-8 yaksha with a defensive treasure on him. Despite all the attacks raining on him, he wasn’t injured much.

After he reached the edge of the battlefield and out of the range of the Buddha Light—

“Hoooo!”

The yaksha spread out his silver wings and flew into the sky.

He had formed a plan.

After he got away, he would find a place nearby to hide.

He would then look for opportunities to attack Dragon City members working on their own.

He would take out those humans’ hearts and eat them. After that, he would crush their bones and use them to build a tower to avenge his destroyed settlement!

Roar!

But that plan would only be a plan.

The next moment, a white light appeared above him and formed a semi-tangible paw.

It smacked him, shattering the red light covering his body.

The claws then severed him. Before he died, the yaksha looked up and saw a giant tiger that was dozens of meters tall. The ferocious energy it gave off overwhelmed the yaksha king.

“Roar!”

The white tiger wasn’t the only thing that had appeared.

A 300m-long Azure Dragon appeared in the east. It waved its tail, and the force made a large group of land yakshas spit blood.

Clang!

A Vermilion Bird flapped its wings and bellowed in the south. The flame burned a Commander-level flying yaksha to ashes in a matter of seconds.

A Black Tortoise descended to the north of the battlefield. The snake wrapped around its neck began to devour the yakshas that were trying to flee.

It was the Primordial Unity Chaos Phenomena Array using the four symbols and twenty-eight mansions as its core.

To make sure that the yakshas would be completely annihilated, Dragon City even brought the great formation here.

Although the Primordial Unity Chaos Phenomena Array had left the city, the great Feng Shui formation was still there. Together with Li Chunfeng, the defensive ability wasn’t reduced much.

Moreover, Ji Ye still had something else up his sleeve.

Seeing the Primordial Unity Chaos Phenomena Array, an Extraordinary Rank-9 yaksha commander bellowed and struck down at the white tiger with his silver wings.

He tried to break the array by sheer force, like what the Dragon City heroes did once.

Pew!

Wu Song, who was leading the Beast Blood Guards, struck down with his saber and decapitated the yaksha commander. Blood splashed everywhere.

Although the two of them were of the same level, the yaksha king couldn’t withstand Wu Song’s attack.

“God says the holy fire burns forever!”

Under the Vermilion Bird was the Demon Battalion led by Lin Chong. Flames appeared between the brows of many figures emerging around him, and they had a crazy look in their eyes as they chanted prayers. Although they were of an intangible form, the white “Holy Fire” transformed from the power of faith had a detrimental effect on the yakshas charging at Lin Chong.

Under the Black Tortoise was Zhao Yun, who was riding his magnificent horse. He turned into a streak of white light as he activated his Power of Dragon Valiance. Everywhere he went, yakshas’ heads fell to the ground.

Although the yakshas had higher levels in general, the proportion of Commander-level ones was far lower than that of Dragon City.

The yakshas that hadn’t reached the Transcendent level couldn’t remain unscratched after the nuclear explosions. There was no way that they could defeat the Superior and Perfect heroes of Dragon City.

“We’re going to win!”

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer yakshas in the battlefield, players of Dragon City smiled in relief.

This battle was much easier than they had expected.

After the nuclear bomb and the death of the two Transcendent yakshas, the remaining ones couldn’t stand a chance.

Dragon City only needed to wait for the heat at the center of the explosion to die down, then they could destroy the settlement core beneath that area.

But something unexpected at that moment.

Silver dots appeared in the distant sky.

“Not one, but a lot of yakshas are coming!”

At the same time, defensive personnel in the perimeter reported in the communication channel.

“That’s impossible! How can the yakshas have reinforcement?”

The combative members of Dragon City didn’t see that coming.

“It’s true!”

From the Mirage Cloud Mirror, they could see that as many as two or three thousand land yakshas were quickly approaching them. There were also three to four hundred silver-winged flying yakshas flying toward them.

The incoming yakshas seemed to be as capable as those in the settlement.

“Is there another yaksha settlement nearby that has swarmed out in their full strength?” a player panted and asked.

Although Dragon City had won the battle, they were also exhausted now.

Many people were injured, and more importantly, the powerful weapons they had prepared, such as the Pure Sensation Depleted Uranium Bomb, were already used up in the battle.

Although the reinforcement didn’t contain golden-winged Transcendent yakshas, with the great number of yakshas, casualties of Dragon City could double.

“Prepare for battle!”

Despite the unexpected event, the commanding officers remained level-headed.

Ji Ye looked up with a frown. He then switched his True Dragon’s Eyes to the Heavenly Eye and looked at the yakshas.

Unlike the yakshas that had been bombed, the new yakshas were at their best state and were moving extremely fast.

In a matter of seconds, Ji Ye could see the face of the first silver-winged yaksha.

[Flying Yaksha]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-9]

[Rarity: Commander]

[Description: A renowned butcher of the yaksha race who loves to eat humans’ hearts.]

“A butcher, and a renowned one?

“Wait. Can it be…”

After noticing the description of the yaksha, an idea suddenly occurred to Ji Ye.

“Chief Li, please stall the flying yakshas with the Sky Troop. I’ll go destroy the yakshas’ settlement core!”

He then gave the order with Voice Far Away and charged at the settlement core on the back of the Nightmare.

He knew where the new yakshas came from. They were part of the Transcendent advancement test of the settlement!

The yakshas had been watching Dragon City. Knowing that they couldn’t defeat the humans, they applied for the advancement test before the battle started.

Although it would attract a large number of villains of their civilization and get attacked from both sides, it was the yakshas’ attempt to find a way out of this impasse with an extreme approach.

Because although these yaksha bandits were villains, they were still yakshas.

Their first choice would be to attack the people of Dragon City, not their own kind in the settlement.

The yakshas were going to make good use of the black fog and buy themselves as much time as they could with the fortifications. Once Dragon City and the yaksha bandits were both weakened by their battle, the Transcendent yaksha king and queen would come out to clean up the mess.

It was the same plan that Dragon City used when they set Wang Qing, Tian Hu, and the Liao Kingdom against one another, and Dragon City became the winner in the end.

The yakshas could even use the Souls of Civilization and offerings dropped after the battle to summon their heroes to replenish their strength. After that, they could attack Dragon City that had suffered a great loss.

If that was what happened, maybe the humans would have to give up their status as the “hosts” of this game.

One had to admit that the yakshas were an intelligent race that was as clever as human beings.

Despite the great difference in the strength between the two settlements, they still created a plan that could almost turn things around for them.

If Li Guang’s “nuclear arrow” hadn’t been unstoppable and almost wiped out the yaksha settlement in one go, their plan might have worked.

“They failed because we are several times more powerful than them.

“If we were an ordinary settlement, the advancement test they activated could lure their villains here to fight their enemies for them. That would kill two birds with one stone, and their advancement test would become much easier!”

Ji Ye had an idea.

Maybe they could try this method in their next advancement test.

But more than likely, Dragon City wouldn’t need to use it.
