Chapter 1984: What’s Your Name?
Currently, Wyatt Barnes has changed back into the exclusive attire of a Black Tortoise Altar disciple.
His appearance alongside a Holy Land Copper Flame Elder naturally attracted the attention of many Holy Land disciples.
"A Black Tortoise Altar disciple?"
The gazes of some Holy Land disciples fell on Wyatt Barnes’ exclusive attire, revealing his ’origin’.
"A few days ago, there was a Black Tortoise Altar disciple who, upon comprehending the altar’s guardian divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’, directly entered the Holy Land to become a Holy Land disciple... It’s been less than half a month, how is there another Black Tortoise Altar disciple now?"
A Holy Land disciple said with some surprise.
Although quite distant, Wyatt Barnes still heard his words.
Wyatt Barnes naturally knew that this Holy Land disciple was referring to Mats Davidson, who was likewise a Black Tortoise Altar disciple like him.
Mats Davidson, over ten days ago, successfully comprehended the altar’s guardian divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’, not only received a pardon in the Four Symbols Altar First Mining Area, but also exceptionally entered the Holy Land to become a Holy Land disciple.
In fact, the reason Wyatt Barnes could appear here today owes much to Mats Davidson!
After all, if Mats Davidson hadn’t displayed ’Black Tortoise Protection’ in front of him, Wyatt Barnes could not have comprehended ’Black Tortoise Protection’ so quickly.
"This Black Tortoise Altar disciple also comprehended the altar’s guardian divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’, right? After all, the ’Holy Land Assessment’ is still a period away; now, any Four Symbols Altar disciple coming to the Holy Land must have either comprehended an altar’s guardian divine ability or be uniquely talented and recommended by the Black Tortoise Altar master."
Another Holy Land disciple said.
However, the words of this Holy Land disciple made many other disciples sneer, "He also comprehended ’Black Tortoise Protection’? I think you are imagining too much!"
"Exactly! Black Tortoise Protection is not just the guardian divine ability of the Black Tortoise Altar... It’s our Fire Worship Sect’s top defensive divine ability! The difficulty of its comprehension ranks among the ’first echelon’ in our sect’s advanced divine abilities!"
"To comprehend ’Black Tortoise Protection’ is not easy... In my opinion, this Black Tortoise Altar disciple must be highly talented, hence the recommendation from the Black Tortoise Altar master."
"I agree."
...
A group of Holy Land disciples discussed among themselves, seemingly all confirming that Wyatt Barnes was recommended by the Black Tortoise Altar master.
Faced with such a misunderstanding, Wyatt Barnes simply chuckled softly, not bothered at all.
The Holy Land patrol elder beside him, upon hearing these discussions from other disciples on the way, however, was secretly shaking his head.
Because he knew very well:
The Black Tortoise Altar disciple beside him was not recommended by the altar master, but rather demonstrated the altar’s guardian divine ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’ before him, which allowed him to personally bring Wyatt Barnes to register on the Holy Island.
That was also one of his duties as a Holy Land patrol elder!
"So many people!"
When Wyatt Barnes followed the patrol elder passing through an almost endless plaza in the center of the Holy Island, he also found many people gathered there.
At a glance, there were no less than a thousand people!
A thousand people might seem insignificant in any of the Four Symbols Altar.
But, what place is this?
This is the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land!
Generally speaking, for Fire Worship Sect disciples to enter the Holy Land, unless their talent is so monstrous that just upon entering the sect, they’re recommended by a master of an altar to the Holy Land to become a disciple.
Or if their divine ability talent is exceptional, they successfully comprehend an altar’s guardian divine ability even before reaching the ’late Heavenly Saint Realm’.
Otherwise, they would need a cultivation level beyond ’late Heavenly Saint Realm’ to pass the Holy Land assessment and enter the Holy Land as disciples!
It is precisely because of this reason that Wyatt Barnes felt surprised seeing over a thousand people on this Holy Island plaza.
These thousand people on the Holy Island plaza are certainly not all the disciples of the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land... Based on this observation, even if the Holy Land disciples don’t number ten thousand or eight thousand, there must be a few thousand!
A few thousand above ’late Heavenly Saint Realm’ — what kind of concept is that?
"This is the central plaza on our Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land main island... Also the busiest place usually; apart from various functioning palaces, it’s also a place where disciples gather for ’martial discourses’."
"Many disciples facing cultivation bottlenecks often gather here to join the excitement, sometimes by chance they might get inspired and find a breakthrough opportunity for further improvement!"
At the same time, the patrol elder’s voice came, informing Wyatt Barnes of the place beneath his feet.
Holy Island, Central Plaza!
"Elder, how many disciples are there in the Holy Land?"
Wyatt Barnes once again glanced at the thousand people in the Central Plaza, couldn’t help but ask.
"Why? Are you startled seeing just the Central Plaza with over a thousand people?"
The patrol elder asked with a smile.
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes did not deny it, "There are over a thousand Sacred Land disciples gathered just in this Central Plaza... In this Holy Land, the number of Sacred Land disciples must be at least three to five thousand, right?"
As he finished speaking, Wyatt speculated while waiting for the response from the Sacred Land Patrolling Elder.
"Not as exaggerated as three to five thousand!"
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, the Sacred Land Patrolling Elder shook his head, "I just told you... Many Sacred Land disciples who encounter bottlenecks in their cultivation gather here in this Central Plaza."
"Their purpose is simple: to communicate with other Sacred Land disciples, gain inspiration from their words, and thereby find opportunities for further improvement."
"The ’improvement’ mentioned here doesn’t just refer to cultivation but also martial arts techniques and even Divine Abilities!"
"Surely you know that among the Sacred Land disciples in our Fire Worship Sect, ninety-nine percent are in the ’Heavenly Saint Realm Late Stage’ or higher... Among these, a portion are in the ’Heavenly Saint Realm Late Stage’; but the vast majority are at the ’Heavenly Saint Realm Peak’!"
"Among the Heavenly Saint Realm Peak Sacred Land disciples, the vast majority have been stuck at this peak for hundreds or even thousands of years! Not breaking through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’ means they cannot become ’True Disciples’ or ’Bronze Flame Elders’!"
The Sacred Land Patrolling Elder said slowly.
Wyatt Barnes nodded.
He could naturally understand this.
After all, not every Heavenly Saint Realm Peak Sacred Land disciple can break through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’.
To break through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’, one relies on ’talent’ and ’opportunity’.
Among these, ’talent’ accounts for more than ninety percent.
Generally speaking, those with talent roots below ’green roots’ have virtually no chance of breaking through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’ without opportunities.
Even those with ’green roots’ talent find it difficult to break through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’.
Only those with ’cyan roots’ talent and above can smoothly break through to the ’Saint Immortal Realm’ without any major bottlenecks.
Of course, this means without ’major bottlenecks’.
For various reasons, some ’minor bottlenecks’ will still be encountered to some extent.
Just like the current Wyatt Barnes, though he possesses ’cyan roots’ and his cultivation is only at the ’Human Saint Realm Peak’...
Because his cultivation speed was too rapid previously, even with desperate cultivation, he cannot easily break through to the ’Earth Saint Realm’ before his Human Saint Realm Peak cultivation stabilizes!
This is precisely the ’minor bottleneck’.
"Actually, the over a thousand Sacred Land disciples gathered in this Central Plaza account for more than half of all Sacred Land disciples... In total, our Fire Worship Sect’s Sacred Land has over two thousand Sacred Land disciples."
As the Sacred Land Patrolling Elder continued, Wyatt Barnes realized he had guessed wrong.
But even though he guessed wrong, the number of Sacred Land disciples in the Fire Worship Sect still surprised him greatly.
This also means that there are about two thousand existences above the Heavenly Saint Realm Late Stage in the Fire Worship Sect!
Among them, most are again at the ’Heavenly Saint Realm Peak’!
"No wonder it’s one of the three major sects of the Upper Domain in the Martial Dao Sacred Land... Such depth, such strength, cannot be compared to even a mere first-rate power! Let alone those powers weaker than first-rate."
Wyatt Barnes thought.
Aside from other matters for the moment.
According to the news he heard from the Black Tortoise Arena Law Enforcement Elder ’Abraham Clifford’:
The family backing Kian Hayden, who was coerced by Maximus Lee to kill him, the ’Hayden Family’, is one of the Third-Rate Powers in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
Yet this very power was wiped out single-handedly by an Elder Silver Flame of the Fire Worship Sect!
Though the strength of the Elder Silver Flame who acted was among the best among the many Elder Silver Flames of the Fire Worship Sect... This also sufficiently illustrates the gap between the Upper Domain Third-Rate Powers and the Fire Worship Sect!
"A stronger Elder Silver Flame from the Fire Worship Sect can single-handedly wipe out a ’Third-Rate Power’ in the Upper Domain... Doesn’t this mean that a stronger Elder Gold Flame from the Fire Worship Sect could similarly single-handedly wipe out a ’Second-Rate Power’ in the Upper Domain?"
"If the Vice Sect Leader or even the Three Great Protectors were sent out, wouldn’t destroying a First-Rate Power be a trivial matter?"
At this thought, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but inhale a sharp breath of cold air, deeply realizing the terror of the Fire Worship Sect.
Not to mention the many Sacred Land disciples of the Fire Worship Sect, just the numerous high-level members of the Fire Worship Sect are powerful existences capable of ’turning the clouds and rain’ in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land!
"As for the various function-specific palaces around the Central Plaza, after you register to become a Sacred Land disciple, you can come over to understand them on your own."
The Sacred Land Patrolling Elder said to Wyatt Barnes once more, then led Wyatt Barnes directly towards the Sacred Land new disciples’ registration office in the Fire Worship Sect, not stopping along the way.
"What’s your name?"
When they were approaching the Sacred Land new disciples’ registration office of the Fire Worship Sect, the Sacred Land Patrolling Elder suddenly looked at Wyatt Barnes, offering this unprompted question.
From the moment Wyatt Barnes arrived at the Sacred Land and displayed the Black Tortoise Arena’s guardian Divine Ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’ before him.
It wasn’t until now that he realized...
He still didn’t know the name of this Black Tortoise Arena disciple from the Four Symbols Arena!
