Chapter 1955: Chapter 1955: Maximus Lee’s Hesitation
"I once thought that the transformation of my ’innate spiritual root’ would drastically improve my cultivation speed and allow my strength to advance rapidly... Now it seems that there are still limitations!"
After a round of cultivation, with consecutive breakthroughs in two levels, Wyatt Barnes has figured out so things.
Just before he broke through to the ’peak Human Saint Realm,’ his strength had only just advanced to the ’late Human Saint Realm,’ with an unstable foundation.
It was precisely because of this unstable foundation that he frequently encountered obstacles in his subsequent cultivation.
"If it weren’t for this resistance... I could at least save one-third of the ti!"
Wyatt thought to himself.
If his foundation were stable, he was confident to complete the breakthrough from ’late Human Saint Realm’ to ’peak Human Saint Realm’ within a month.
Because the foundation was unstable, the ti was extended by half a month.
Of course, the month and half a month ntioned here refer to the ti in the outside world.
A month and a half in the outside world are equivalent to having passed one year and three months on the fourth layer of the Jewel Tower.
The ti flow ratio between the outside world and the fourth layer of the Jewel Tower is ’one to ten.’
"If I continue to bury myself in cultivation, although I can eventually break through to the ’Earth Saint Realm,’ it would take considerably more ti... It might be better to pause cultivation and attend to other matters, like comprehending Divine Abilities and the ’Supre Heart Sword.’
With this thought in mind, Wyatt also paused his cultivation.
The foundation of his strength doesn’t need him to intentionally stabilize it; it will naturally stabilize over ti.
"It’s another month before my service at the Four Symbols Altar ’First Mining Area’... A month outside equates to ten months inside the Jewel Tower. In this period, I’ll try to continue comprehending the guardian Divine Ability ’Black Tortoise Shield’ from the Black Tortoise Altar!"
"I refuse to believe that, with my ’Heart’ tempered countless tis by the ’Supre Heart Sword,’ I cannot comprehend it successfully!"
Soon, Wyatt made up his mind.
In the period that followed, he focused on comprehending the guardian Divine Ability ’Black Tortoise Shield’ from the Black Tortoise Altar and allowing his current strength to have a transition period, further stabilizing his foundation.
"However... it’s been two months outside, and Maximus Lee still hasn’t made a move. It seems that he also faced a closed door at the Holy Land’s Enforcent Hall!"
Before comprehending the Divine Ability ’Black Tortoise Shield,’ Wyatt thought of the first Elder Silver Fla of the Black Tortoise Altar, Maximus Lee.
He still rembered:
Two months ago, he killed the two Anderson brothers at the Vermilion Bird Altar, which should have been a cri worthy of death.
However, because he demonstrated his innate spiritual root in front of the Law Enforcent Elders ’Abraham Clifford’ and ’Yale Wade’ from the Black Tortoise Altar and Vermilion Bird Altar, they dismissed the thought of executing him.
A Martial Dao genius with a ’cyan spiritual root’ is an individual keenly looked after by the Fire Worship Sect.
Such an existence, killing one or two ordinary disciples, is not entirely unforgivable.
After all, compared to losing one or two ordinary disciples, executing such a Martial Dao genius would be a greater loss for the Fire Worship Sect!
In weighing the options, naturally, the choice was to preserve the latter.
The death of the forr was inconsequential, not affecting the overall situation.
This further illustrates that the Martial Dao Sacred Land is a world where the weak are prey to the strong, and respect the powerful!
Even within a colossal force like the ’Fire Worship Sect,’ under its strict regulations, disciples with high talent and value, who have the potential to be favored by the Fire Worship Sect in the future, can still break the rules and receive special treatnt.
Two months ago, Wyatt was able to escape danger because he demonstrated his value:
The innate spiritual root ’cyan spiritual root’!
"Now, Maximus Lee should already know about my ’cyan spiritual root’ as well."
Wyatt thought to himself.
Two months ago, Maximus Lee did not accept Abraham Clifford’s ’verdict’ and threatened to go to the Holy Land Enforcent Hall to overturn Abraham Clifford’s decision!
However, two months have passed, and there has been no movent from Maximus Lee, indicating that he did not overturn Abraham Clifford’s decision.
"In the file that Elder Abraham handed over to the Holy Land Enforcent Hall regarding my verdict, it definitely described my ’cyan spiritual root’... Otherwise, there’s no way the Holy Land Enforcent Hall would allow him to act indiscriminately!"
"Indeed, while killing Hudson Anderson made sense, as many witnessed him attacking
first, it’s hard to justify Kenny Anderson!"
Back then, the reason Wyatt dared to kill both Anderson brothers was due to his confidence in his about-to-evolve innate spiritual root!
At that ti, his spiritual root was ’dark green.’
Just one more step, and it would beco a ’cyan spiritual root.’
And as it turned out, his confidence was rightly placed.
After killing the Anderson brothers and swallowing their innate spiritual roots, his own spiritual root smoothly transford from a ’green root’ to a ’cyan root.’
If he hadn’t demonstrated his ’cyan spiritual root,’ showing his value, the Law Enforcent Elders from the Black Tortoise Altar ’Abraham Clifford’ and ’Yale Wade’ wouldn’t have had such a significant shift in attitude before and after entering the fire domain.
Later on, they spared no effort to protect him!
In order to protect him, they even made up so high-sounding words.
The purpose was to make it ’justifiable’!
Of course, this so-called ’justifiable’ was undoubtedly a big joke to the disciples of the Vermilion Bird Altar present that day.
Because anyone could see that the two Law Enforcent Elders were speaking nonsense.
But even so, what could they do?
As long as the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land didn’t pursue this matter, it was already settled!
"At present, this matter seems to have been settled... As for the matter of going to the ’First Mining District’ of the Four Symbols Altar for service, it doesn’t affect ."
"According to the rules of the Four Symbols Altar, as long as a disciple punished to serve in the mining district gains eligibility to enter the Holy Land, the punishnt can be exempted, and they can directly enter the Holy Land to beco a ’Holy Land disciple’!"
Wyatt Barnes had heard about Four Symbols Altar disciples being punished to serve in the ’mining district’ before.
Moreover, he knew that as long as he could enter the Holy Land, he could be exempted from punishnt!
"For , entering the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land is not difficult... With my current strength, I am already able to pass the ’Holy Land assessnt’ and beco a Holy Land disciple! However, the next Holy Land assessnt is still so ti away."
So, in Wyatt Barnes’s view, even if he went to the ’First Mining District’ of the Four Symbols Altar, he wouldn’t need to stay there long.
When the Holy Land assessnt began, he could leave the mining district.
The ten-year service punishnt could be directly exempted as long as he could pass the Holy Land assessnt and beco a Holy Land disciple.
"In the next ten months, I will focus on comprehending the Vermilion Bird Altar’s sacred divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’! I just don’t believe I cannot comprehend this so-called number one defensive divine ability of the Fire Worship Sect!"
With this thought, Wyatt Barnes abandoned distracting thoughts and imrsed himself in comprehending the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’.
A lot of information about ’Black Tortoise Protection’ had been etched into his mind the last ti he visited the Black Tortoise Altar, making it very convenient to comprehend now.
While Wyatt Barnes was comprehending the divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’, Maximus Lee was in a very unpleasant mood.
"Could it be that Wyatt Barnes truly possesses the ’green aptitude root’? But... originally, during the talent assessnt, the result of his aptitude root was clearly just a ’yellow aptitude root’! Can it be he’s not only capable of concealing his cultivation but also his talent root?"
Maximus Lee’s face was very gloomy.
More than a month ago, he went to the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land, wanting to overturn Abraham Clifford’s ’verdict’ regarding Wyatt Barnes.
Wyatt Barnes definitely intentionally killed Kenny Anderson!
On this point, he could find any disciple of the Vermilion Bird Altar as a witness.
So, when he went to the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land, he was full of confidence, believing he could overturn Abraham Clifford’s ’aningless’ verdict on Wyatt Barnes.
In his view.
If he could overturn Abraham Clifford’s ’verdict’, the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land would definitely send a Law Enforcent Elder to intervene.
Then, Wyatt Barnes would undoubtedly die!
However, imagination was rosy, while reality was harsh.
Upon arriving at the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land and seeing the ’docunts’ submitted by Abraham Clifford regarding Wyatt Barnes’s verdict, Maximus Lee was dumbfounded.
Simply because the docunts submitted by Abraham Clifford stated that Wyatt Barnes might indeed have intentionally killed Kenny Anderson, a disciple of the Vermilion Bird Altar... But because Wyatt Barnes was a Martial Dao genius possessing the ’green aptitude root’, according to the Fire Worship Sect’s ’unwritten rules’ overriding the sect rules, it was inappropriate to execute Wyatt Barnes for the death of an ordinary Vermilion Bird Altar disciple like Kenny Anderson.
For this reason, Abraham Clifford made the verdict for Wyatt Barnes to serve in the ’First Mining District’ of the Four Symbols Altar.
And regarding this verdict, the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land also approved it smoothly.
A Martial Dao genius with a ’green aptitude root’ was already worthy of them giving a ’green light’ in this matter.
"Green aptitude root? How is this possible?!"
After reading the content of the docunts, Maximus Lee felt as if his heart was trampled by thousands of wild horses, unable to calm down for a long ti.
Imdiately, he directly accused Abraham Clifford of falsifying the docunts!
Because he was certain that Wyatt Barnes’s talent root was rely the ’yellow aptitude root’, not the ’green aptitude root’!
However, the answer given to him by the elder on duty at the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land was:
"In the absence of sufficient evidence proving that the Black Tortoise Altar’s Law Enforcent Elder ’Abraham Clifford’ falsified the docunts, the Enforcent Hall will not easily accept your accusation, as words without proof are aningless!"
"Of course, if you insist on accusing him, you can!"
"Our Enforcent Hall will assign a Law Enforcent Elder to accompany you to verify whether your words are true... If the final result proves that you are lying, our Enforcent Hall will consider you to be desecrating the Enforcent Hall and will impose severe punishnt on you!"
The words from the elder on duty at the Enforcent Hall of the Holy Land at the ti made Maximus Lee hesitate again.
Desecrating the Enforcent Hall is no small offense!
Although it wouldn’t lead to expulsion from the Fire Worship Sect, it would result in a punishnt worse than death!
