Chapter 1923: Chapter 1923: Avenge !
In the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, there is an ironclad rule:
Anyone whose innate spiritual root is the ’Azure Spiritual Root’ or higher, as long as they are dedicated to cultivation, is guaranteed to smoothly step into the ’Saint Immortal Realm’!
The Saint Immortal Realm is the final realm of cultivation in the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
The powerhouses who enter the Saint Immortal Realm are the pinnacle existences within the Martial Dao Sacred Land, dominating the four corners and overlooking all living beings!
"Brother Long Drake, according to the rules of our Fire Worship Sect, anyone with an innate spiritual root of ’Azure Spiritual Root’ or higher can be exempted from assessnts and unconditionally join our Fire Worship Sect... Those who initially join our Fire Worship Sect usually start by staying in the ’Four Symbols Platform.’
After testing Long Drake’s innate spiritual root as the ’Azure Spiritual Root,’ Elder Copper Fla’s attitude beca very enthusiastic.
Later, this Elder Copper Fla even proactively recomnded, "Our ’Black Tortoise Platform’ is one of the Four Symbols Platforms... The Fire Worship Sect’s foremost Defensive Divine Power, the ’Black Tortoise Protection,’ is within our Black Tortoise Platform."
"Why not let Brother Long Drake stay at our Black Tortoise Platform first?"
When his words fell, he looked at Long Drake with anticipation, hoping Long Drake would remain at the Black Tortoise Platform.
If Long Drake stayed at the Black Tortoise Platform, he could recomnd this martial genius with the ’Azure Spiritual Root’ to their platform master.
He believed their platform master would be interested in Long Drake and might even accept Long Drake as a direct disciple!
At that ti, as long as the platform master was pleased, his benefits would not be limited.
"Wherever my cousin is at the Four Symbols Platform, I will go there!"
Long Drake ignored Elder Copper Fla’s enthusiasm and said lightly.
He was a genius with the ’Azure Spiritual Root,’ with vast potential, and his achievents in the future far exceeded those of this Elder Copper Fla.
Therefore, all along, when facing this Elder Copper Fla, Long Drake had been very casual.
Originally thinking Long Drake would agree, Elder Copper Fla’s expression was montarily frozen upon hearing Long Drake’s words, then he asked, "Which platform is your cousin at?"
"He is called ’Arlo Drake,’ with the ’Green Spiritual Root’... Two months ago, he ca to participate in your Fire Worship Sect Four Symbols Platform disciple recruitnt assessnt!"
"Without any accident, he should currently have beco an apprentice to one of your Four Symbols Platform’s ’Elder Silver Fla’... And I’ve co to the Fire Worship Sect to also plan to beco a disciple of that Elder Silver Fla."
When ntioning ’Arlo Drake,’ a rare doting expression appeared deep in the rebellious eyes of Long Drake.
Months ago, before Long Drake and his cousin Arlo Drake planned to co to the Fire Worship Sect, they agreed to co to the sect and apprentice under the sa master.
To take care of his cousin ’Arlo Drake,’ Long Drake even willingly gave up the chance to apprentice under soone of the caliber of ’Elder Gold Fla.’
He had Arlo Drake find an Elder Silver Fla to apprentice under after entering the Fire Worship Sect’s Four Symbols Platform.
If that Elder Silver Fla found Arlo Drake undesirable, Arlo Drake could bring him up.
He believed as long as he was willing to apprentice under one of the Fire Worship Sect’s Elder Silver Flas, that Elder Silver Fla would surely show him face and take Arlo Drake as a disciple.
His confidence ca from his innate spiritual root, the Azure Spiritual Root!
The Azure Spiritual Root was his greatest ’chip,’ an irresistible chip for any Elder Silver Fla within the Fire Worship Sect.
"You... You’re Arlo Drake’s cousin?"
Upon hearing Long Drake’s words, Elder Copper Fla was montarily taken aback, eyes wide with astonishnt as though discovering sothing astonishing.
Arlo Drake, of course, he had heard of.
The Fire Worship Sect’s Four Symbols Platform recruits disciples externally once every three years, and the latest recruitnt was less than two months ago.
This ti, among the several Elder Silver Flas of their Black Tortoise Platform, only ’Maximus Lee’ took on a direct disciple.
Therefore, including himself, many Elder Copper Flas found it peculiar.
Elder Maximus Lee, the foremost Elder Silver Fla of their Black Tortoise Platform, always has high standards. Although he has taken in three direct disciples in the past, without exception, all three were martial geniuses with the ’Azure Spiritual Root.’
Learning that Elder Maximus Lee had taken Arlo Drake, soone with a ’Green Spiritual Root,’ as a direct disciple left them perplexed, unable to understand why Maximus Lee’s standards had dropped.
But now, seeing Long Drake and hearing Long Drake’s words, he suddenly had an answer.
"No wonder, no wonder... No wonder Elder Maximus Lee accepted Arlo Drake as a direct disciple! As it turns out, it was for the sake of this Long Drake."
This was the answer in Elder Copper Fla’s heart.
Long Drake, a martial genius with the ’Azure Spiritual Root,’ if willing to apprentice under Elder Maximus Lee, would naturally not mind taking Arlo Drake on Long Drake’s behalf as a disciple.
Simultaneously, Elder Copper Fla sighed internally in disappointnt,
It seed he could not recomnd the person before him to their platform master anymore.
The platform master might be interested in martial geniuses with the ’Azure Spiritual Root,’ but not enough to lower his stance and compete with his subordinate Elder Silver Flas!
Unless the person possessed the ’Blue Spiritual Root,’ which would be a talent so exceptional even the sect leader would be tempted by it, no Elder Silver Fla would consider presumptuously trying to accept such a person as a disciple!
"What? Does the elder know my cousin?"
Upon hearing Elder Copper Fla’s words and seeing his astonished expression, Long Drake’s gaze flickered, asking.
"Yes."
Elder Copper Fla nodded, "Your cousin is now under the tutelage of our Black Tortoise Platform’s foremost Elder Silver Fla, ’Elder Maximus Lee.’
"Elder Maximus Lee? The foremost Elder Silver Fla of the Black Tortoise Platform?"
Long Drake, hearing this, nodded silently.
It seed his cousin had chosen wisely, having joined the tutelage of the foremost Elder Silver Fla of the Black Tortoise Platform.
"However, your cousin’s current situation is not very good..."
Elder Copper Fla continued speaking, then carefully glanced at Long Drake.
A month ago, the incident regarding the Xuanwu Altar disciples’ residence not only spread throughout the entire Xuanwu Altar, but also throughout the Four Symbols Altar, and even reached the Holy Land!
That is:
The newly accepted personal disciple of First Elder Silver Fla, Maximus Lee, nad ’Arlo Drake’, for so unknown reason, his talent root suddenly disappeared, mysteriously vanishing from the depths of his soul without a trace!
Though the talent root was gone, Arlo Drake’s soul remained completely intact.
Even a powerhouse of the ’Ninth Transformation of the Saint Immortal’ could not achieve this.
Therefore, since a month ago, this matter beca a significant ’case’ within the Four Symbols Altar, and Arlo Drake’s na spread throughout the Fire Worship Sect because of it.
Of course, if he could choose, Arlo Drake would rather not have such fa.
Simply because the price of such fa was too great!
Without the talent root, for the rest of his life, his cultivation would struggle to advance a single step, only able to tread water.
It was equivalent to having his entire life ruined!
"What happened to my cousin?!"
Upon hearing Elder Copper Fla’s words, Long Drake realized sothing had happened to his cousin ’Arlo Drake’, and his complexion changed drastically.
Arlo Drake, though just a cousin, was more important to him than his own brother!
Having lost his parents early, it was Arlo Drake’s father who raised him to adulthood.
Later, during an accident, Arlo Drake’s father died saving him.
Since then, he had played the role of both brother and father in front of Arlo Drake.
Learning that sothing happened to Arlo Drake, he naturally panicked.
"I’ll take you to the Xuanwu Altar disciples’ residence... as for Arlo Drake’s matter, we’ll talk on the way."
After sending the patrol disciples away, Elder Copper Fla led Long Drake towards the west of Xuanwu Altar.
There, was exactly where the Xuanwu Altar disciples lived.
"This is the attire for Xuanwu Altar disciples."
On the way, Elder Copper Fla handed Long Drake the exclusive attire for Xuanwu Altar disciples.
"Elder, what exactly happened to my cousin?"
Even as he reached out to accept the exclusive attire for Xuanwu Altar disciples, Long Drake’s gaze never left Elder Copper Fla, the worry in his eyes was evident.
"His talent root is gone!"
Elder Copper Fla sighed and said.
His talent root is gone!
Those words from Elder Copper Fla struck Long Drake like a bolt from the blue, making his face change color, his eyes filled with a blood-red hue, and a violent aura began to emanate from him.
"The talent root is gone?"
After a mont, Long Drake asked in a hoarse voice, his tone filled with coldness, his voice seeming to co from an ice cave, "How could this happen? How could his talent root just disappear like that? Who did it?!"
Long Drake naturally understood what losing the talent root ant.
Because of this, he could imagine how despairing his cousin must be!
"I’m not too sure about the specifics of how it disappeared... not only am I unsure, but reportedly, even Arlo Drake himself doesn’t know."
Upon hearing Long Drake’s words, Elder Copper Fla was taken aback for a mont then laughed bitterly and said.
"He himself doesn’t know?"
Long Drake was dumbfounded, and the violent aura around him dissipated.
He originally thought that soone had taken away his cousin’s talent root, hence his anger... Now, hearing Elder Copper Fla, he felt powerless!
Under the guidance of Elder Copper Fla, Long Drake arrived at the Xuanwu Altar disciples’ residence.
After learning from a Xuanwu Altar disciple about where Arlo Drake resided in the ’Beta House’, Elder Copper Fla bid farewell to Long Drake and left, while Long Drake descended from the sky, landing outside the Beta House.
"Who is he?"
"Seems like a new face... he was brought here by that Elder Copper Fla just now."
"He seems to be looking for Arlo Drake."
...
Long Drake’s arrival naturally caught the attention of many Xuanwu Altar disciples.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
...
Long Drake knocked on the door, which opened quickly.
"Brother!"
Upon opening the door and seeing Long Drake, Arlo Drake’s previously pale face lit up, as if seeing a lifeline, he rushed forward excitedly, hugging Long Drake tightly, not letting go for a long ti.
"Brother! You must avenge ... you must avenge !!"
Before Long Drake could say anything, Arlo Drake spoke again, his voice nearly hysterical.
