Chapter 768: Killing Hamon and Absorbing His Memory!
TL: Etude
“If you want to save your life, it’s possible! But first, stop, and let’s have a proper talk.” Ye Tian spoke.
“Alright, I’ll stop. Don’t attack me!” Hamon actually halted.
Ye Tian also ceased his attack, standing not far from Hamon, facing him.
“So, who are you?” Ye Tian asked.
“My name is Hamon!” Hamon replied.
“A mere name isn’t enough. I don’t recognize you. In theory, I should know all powerful Dominators in the universe, but you’re very unfamiliar. And a Dominator as powerful as you can’t possibly be unknown!” Ye Tian stated.
Hamon’s expression changed several times before he finally said, “I come from the chaos, but I used a special method to reincarnate into this universe.”
“Reincarnate?” Ye Tian responded coldly, “Don’t try to deceive me. Would the Universe’s Origin allow chaotic beings to reincarnate into the universe? Even if a powerful being from the chaos enters the universe, they would still be suppressed and killed by the Universe Origin. How did you manage to survive?”
“It really is reavatar!” Hamon shouted, “Normally, I wouldn’t be able to reincarnate, but now your universe’s Universe Origin is very weak and suppressed. Because of this vulnerability, it was possible to reincarnate at a certain cost!”
“What’s your connection with the Supremes of the Twelve Cosmic Eras?” Ye Tian asked again.
“No connection, I don’t know them! But they seem to have obtained external inheritance and suppressed the Universe Origin. This news spread in the chaos, and that’s why I took the risk to enter the universe, aiming to transcend within it!” Hamon explained.
He intentionally deceived Ye Tian with these words. In reality, this matter was kept secret in the chaos, orchestrated by his master, but he couldn’t reveal his master’s existence. Otherwise, the oath would take his life.
Ye Tian didn’t notice any problem and didn’t care much. He continued asking, “Why did you enter the universe? You must be strong in the chaos too. Why take the risk to reincarnate into the universe? Is it only for transcendence? Can’t you achieve transcendence in the external world?”
Hamon smiled and said, “You’re a native of the universe and don’t understand the chaos. In the chaos, the realms of Heavenly Venerable and Supreme are collectively called Earthly Venerable. Above Earthly Venerable is the level of chaotic beings, also known as the Destiny Realm. In the chaos, there’s no such thing as transcendence. When an Earthly Venerable cultivates to the extreme, they just need to transform into a chaotic being to step into the Destiny Realm. This step is difficult but has a ten percent chance. However, without a powerful bloodline, extraordinary fortune, and strong inheritance of techniques, one can only remain a weak chaotic being for life. They might dominate a small continent but are insignificant in the vast chaos.
But transcendents are different. Once you become a transcendent, your potential is limitless, and many great forces will seek you out. The weakest transcendent has the hope to surpass the Destiny Realm. Who wouldn’t want to become a powerful being above the Destiny Realm? So, I abandoned everything outside and reincarnated into this universe.”
“I see!”
Ye Tian finally understood Hamon’s plan. No wonder Hamon was so powerful. As a strong Earthly Venerable in the chaos, he cultivated powerful techniques. Reincarnating into this universe, even at the Dominator level, naturally made his combat power formidable.
“How many have reincarnated here?” Ye Tian asked.
“I’m not sure, but reavatar carries risks. There’s a thirty percent success rate, and failure means true death. I believe not many would take this risk, but there should be a significant number!” Hamon explained.
In reality, he had a rough idea of how many had reincarnated, as they belonged to the same faction, but he didn’t want to disclose it. He preferred to be as evasive as possible.
“Why did you go to Earth?” Ye Tian asked again.
This was what he truly wanted to know. He believed a strong individual like Hamon wouldn’t go to Earth for no reason. If it was just a coincidence, it seemed even more unlikely.
Hamon had anticipated this question and had prepared a response in advance.
“I just wanted to see you. I reincarnated into this universe and heard you were the number one genius. But you were in the human core territory, guarded by human Supremes. So I thought of Earth, your homeland, to lure you there!” Hamon explained.
“Really?” Ye Tian felt a bit skeptical, but this explanation made sense.
“It’s true!” Hamon nodded.
“Alright, even if what you say is true, I still have to kill you!!!” Ye Tian attacked again.
This time, he unleashed the Primeval Slash with full force! Using the Primeval Slash consumed a lot of energy, and he had previously used up much of it, so he hadn’t continued to use it. But now, he had recovered.
Indeed, his recovery speed was that fast! The reason he had been asking questions was not because he truly wanted to spare Hamon, but to buy time.
Of course, if he could extract some secrets, that would be a bonus.
However, he didn’t believe Hamon would reveal everything. Besides, someone like Hamon was too dangerous. If Hamon were to quickly break through to the Heavenly Venerable realm and gain Supreme-level combat power, it would be truly dangerous.

If Hamon acquired enough power, Ye Tian believed Hamon would definitely come after him! While he could escape, could the human race escape? Furthermore, Ye Tian didn’t want to break through to the Heavenly Venerable realm just yet; he wanted to accumulate his power to the utmost before making the breakthrough.
Therefore, he couldn’t afford to let Hamon go and bring trouble upon himself.
Hamon was also secretly recovering from his injuries, but his recovery speed was slow. The talismans that had previously allowed him to recover quickly were all used up.
Thus, Hamon’s expression changed drastically.
“Damn it, you’re too cunning!” Hamon cursed.
Puff!!! The Primeval Slash tore through Hamon’s body, injuring him severely once again.
This time, Hamon’s injuries were even more severe! He had no choice but to flee at all costs. However, Ye Tian had no intention of letting Hamon escape.
Soon, Ye Tian unleashed the Primeval Slash again! Using the Primeval Slash twice in succession consumed most of Ye Tian’s energy and placed a great burden on his body. However, compared to Hamon, Ye Tian was in excellent condition.
At this moment, Hamon was gravely injured and on the brink of death. Even though he had many trump cards and impressive survival abilities, he was still in a desperate situation.
“Ye Tian, I’ll tell you a big secret, please don’t kill me!” Hamon shouted.
However, Ye Tian didn’t believe a word Hamon said. Even if Hamon did have a big secret, Ye Tian still wouldn’t spare him.
Seeing that Ye Tian didn’t care at all, Hamon realized that Ye Tian was determined to kill him.
“Ye Tian, if you kill me, you’re dead too! Just wait, once news of my death gets out, my companions will surely find out you did it. Then you’ll be finished!!!” Hamon threatened.
“Companions? Reincarnated into this universe, even if you’re from the same faction, you’re still competitors. If you die, they might even be happy! Do you think anyone would avenge you?” Ye Tian sneered.
Hamon’s expression froze. He knew Ye Tian was right, but on the brink of death, he could only threaten Ye Tian. If Ye Tian hesitated even for a moment, he might have a chance to escape.
Unfortunately, Ye Tian was too smart to give him any opportunity.
Boom, boom, boom!!!! With repeated strikes, Hamon’s soul began to collapse.
At this moment, Ye Tian took out a top-tier supreme treasure—the Floating Void Map, a top-tier supreme treasure from Aurora’s body, with the power to suppress and seal.
Moreover, this was a spatial top-tier supreme treasure. For Ye Tian, who had a super-god-level time-space talent, he could even fully unleash the power of this top-tier supreme treasure, making it stronger than even the Strongest Supreme Treasures.
Gravely injured and on the brink of death, Hamon had no way to resist and was directly suppressed and sealed by the Floating Void Map.
“The Nether King Secret Manual contains a memory-absorbing secret technique. Hamon is about to die, his soul is about to shatter, I should be able to extract some knowledge!” Ye Tian muttered to himself.
Immediately, he began to use the secret technique—Soul Search Hand! With a swipe, Ye Tian’s soul power transformed into the Soul Search Hand and penetrated Hamon’s soon-to-shatter soul.
Strands of memory fragments were absorbed by Ye Tian. However, some memory fragments were bound by oaths and couldn’t be absorbed. Moreover, Hamon’s memories were vast, so only less than ten percent could be extracted.
Crack! Hamon’s soul completely shattered, and he perished.
Ye Tian sealed and collected that ten percent of Hamon’s memories.
“It’s time to return. There was a battle here, and since this isn’t the human territory, it might attract the prying eyes of Supremes!”
Immediately, Ye Tian left swiftly.
Shortly after, several Supremes arrived, investigated the area, found nothing, and then left one by one.
