Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 1987: Wade Yorke

The residences for the Holy Land disciples not only lack any hierarchical distinction, but even the small courtyards provided for the Holy Land disciples to live in number as many as three thousand.

The three thousand courtyards are situated within a vast valley, standing in terraces at various locations.

However, because the valley is very spacious, despite the presence of three thousand courtyards, it does not feel crowded at all.

Currently, the Fire Worship Sect has slightly over two thousand Holy Land disciples, and even if all the disciples lived here, there would still be numerous vacant residences left.

"The cultivation environment here is actually the same as the ’Jiazi Room’ I once lived in at the Punishment Zone of the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area... No, even though there are ten Spirit Gathering Arrays set up here, the abundance of Spiritual Energy is superior to that of the ’Jiazi Room’."

Wyatt Barnes found an empty courtyard, and upon entering the room, he too noticed:

The concentration of Spiritual Energy inside the room is even more abundant than at the ’Jiazi Room’ he resided in previously!

"It should be because this area is relatively close to the ’Quasi-Immortal Grade Ores’."

Wyatt guessed this without difficulty.

"I hope this time I can comprehend the third realm of the Supreme Heart Sword in one go!"

After closing the door, Wyatt Barnes took out the Jewel Tower and entered the fourth floor, immersing himself entirely in comprehending the supreme Sword Dao mental technique, the Supreme Heart Sword.

Currently, Wyatt’s cultivation has reached a ’bottleneck’, and breaking through to the ’early stage of the Earth Saint Realm’ in a short time is simply impossible.

Moreover, having already mastered four advanced Divine Abilities, he is only lacking experience in the realm of Divine Abilities.

Thus, he has started to focus on comprehending the Supreme Heart Sword.

Currently, the Supreme Heart Sword is just on the brink of the third realm.

"That person earlier... seemed to be wearing the uniform of a disciple from the Black Tortoise Altar?"

Wyatt Barnes did not realize that, upon his arrival at the residence area for Holy Land disciples and finding a courtyard to settle into, he was noticed by several other disciples.

However, these disciples still did not know his ’identity’.

A day later, an astonishing piece of news spread throughout the Holy Land of Fire Worship Sect:

Black Tortoise Altar disciple ’Wyatt Barnes’ has successfully comprehended the Black Tortoise Altar’s Guardian Divine Ability, the ’Black Tortoise Defense’, receiving pardon from the Punishment Zone of the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area, and has officially become a ’Holy Land disciple’!

This news instantly caused quite a stir in the Holy Land.

"Wyatt Barnes? That ’Nine-Clawed Dragon Warrior’?"

"The Black Tortoise Altar disciple who, upon arriving at the Fire Worship Sect, offended the Altar’s Silver Flame Elder ’Maximus Lee’, and also offended the Five Elder of North Quyu Sect ’Russel Yorke’? That troublemaker?"

"It’s said that although his innate talent roots are only ’yellow roots’, since he’s a Nine-Clawed Dragon Warrior and has mastered three advanced Divine Abilities... his combat strength rivals the ’Saint Immortal Realm’!"

"Now, having successfully comprehended our Fire Worship Sect’s top defensive Divine Ability, the ’Black Tortoise Defense’, does this mean his strength is comparable to the presence of the ’first transformation of the Saint Immortal Realm’?"

"Impossible! The Black Tortoise Defense is only a defensive Divine Ability, granting him just defensive capabilities without increasing his offensive prowess... Thus, at most his defense can compare to the strong ones of the first transformation of the Saint Immortal Realm, but as for offense, he certainly cannot match them!"

"I heard his cultivation has already reached the ’peak of Earth Saint Realm’! Unfortunately, his innate talent roots are merely ’yellow roots’... This makes it hard to say whether he can break through to the ’Heavenly Saint Realm’."

"Even if he breaks through, his Martial Dao talent leaves much to be desired for significant achievements!"

...

The Holy Land’s central square and the residences of Holy Land disciples are filled with similar discussions.

"It seems the Black Tortoise Altar disciple who moved into that courtyard yesterday... is Wyatt Barnes!"

Many Holy Land disciples’ gazes fell on the courtyard where Wyatt Barnes resided.

These disciples personally witnessed Wyatt Barnes arriving and settling into the residence area for Holy Land disciples yesterday.

One passed to ten, ten passed to a hundred...

Soon, most Holy Land disciples knew where Wyatt Barnes was residing.

"Did Junior Wyatt also comprehend the ’Black Tortoise Defense’?"

Today, Mats Davidson had just come out of the room, preparing to go to the ’Bounty Palace’ in the central square to see if there were any tasks he could complete to earn contribution points. But, he heard many people whispering in the residence area what Wyatt Barnes had done.

He realized Wyatt Barnes had arrived at the Holy Land and had become a Holy Land disciple!

Furthermore, Wyatt Barnes’ situation was the same as his own.

"I didn’t expect that in less than half a month, both I and Junior Wyatt came to the Holy Land and became disciples... and it was due to successfully comprehending the ’Black Tortoise Defense’! Now, the entirety of the Black Tortoise Altar must be going ’crazy’ over this news, right?"

Mats Davidson spoke to himself in a surprised tone.

This Mats Davidson is none other than the person whom Wyatt Barnes took the ’Jiazi Room’ from on that day in the Punishment Zone at the Four Symbols Altar’s First Mining Area.

It was precisely because of Wyatt Barnes’s challenge back then that he, under pressure, successfully comprehended the Black Tortoise Altar’s core divine ability ’Black Tortoise Guard’, and obtained exemption rights in the First Miner Area of the Four Symbols Altar.

After leaving the First Miner Area of the Four Symbols Altar, he then went to the Holy Land, becoming a Holy Land disciple.

Just as Mats Davidson had guessed.

Currently, the Black Tortoise Altar is anything but peaceful...

Perhaps, the words ’anything but peaceful’ are insufficient to describe the state of the Black Tortoise Altar now.

The Black Tortoise Altar was utterly rocked by a piece of news spreading from the First Miner Area of the Four Symbols Altar and the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land!

"Wyatt Barnes successfully comprehended the Black Tortoise Altar’s core divine ability ’Black Tortoise Guard’, obtained exemption from the First Miner Area of the Four Symbols Altar, entered the Holy Land, and became a Holy Land disciple?"

"My goodness! Is this really true? In less than half a month, our Black Tortoise Altar had two disciples succeed in comprehending the core divine ability ’Black Tortoise Guard’?"

"The ’Black Tortoise Guard’ is not only our Black Tortoise Altar’s core divine ability but also the premier defensive divine ability of the Fire Worship Sect! The difficulty of successful comprehension is believed to far exceed that of the core divine abilities of the Azure Dragon Altar, Vermilion Bird Altar, and White Tiger Pagoda... Yet such a challenging divine ability to successfully comprehend has been understood by two people in just half a month?"

"Brother Wyatt Barnes is truly a prodigy!"

"Indeed. If his talent root were not ’Yellow Root’, even if it were ’Green Root’, his future would be limitless... But as things stand, his strength might be hard to advance further."

"Yes. His talent root imposes severe constraints on him!"

"I used to think... he is a Nine Claw Dragon Warrior, if he went to the Dragonsmith Clan, his status would be comparable to an ’Eight Claw Divine Dragon’, how could he end up at our Fire Worship Sect! Now it seems it’s precisely because his talent root is only ’Yellow Root’. With such talent, how could the proud Dragonsmith Clan truly treat him with reverence akin to an ’Eight Claw Divine Dragon’?"

"I think so too. I reckon he was most likely ostracized by the Dragonsmith Clan members, couldn’t cope at the Dragonsmith Clan, and thus came to our Fire Worship Sect."

...

Everywhere in the Black Tortoise Altar was bustling, the discussions consistently revolved around ’Wyatt Barnes’.

For a time, the news about Wyatt Barnes’s comprehension of the Black Tortoise Altar’s core divine ability ’Black Tortoise Guard’, and his entry into the Holy Land as a disciple, spread throughout the entire Four Symbols Altar!

This caused quite a stir within the Four Symbols Altar as well!

Bam!!

On the east side of the Black Tortoise Altar, within a spacious residence, a sudden loud noise arose, as an elderly man crushed a newly replaced stone table into powder with a wave of his hand.

This elderly man was none other than the Black Tortoise Altar’s First Elder of Silver Flame ’Maximus Lee’!

"How is this possible?!"

"He... he actually comprehended the ’Black Tortoise Guard’, left the Four Symbols Altar’s First Miner Area, and entered the Holy Land!"

While muttering to himself, Maximus Lee’s face also turned very unpleasant.

In his wildest dreams, he never imagined:

The Wyatt Barnes he wished to kill on sight also succeeded, like Mats Davidson, in comprehending their Black Tortoise Altar’s core divine ability ’Black Tortoise Guard’.

Moreover, he also entered the Holy Land, becoming a Holy Land disciple!

Because of this newly learned news, Maximus Lee felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

In the eyes of those Black Tortoise Altar disciples, Wyatt Barnes’s talent root is only ’Yellow Root’, even though Wyatt Barnes is a Nine Claw Dragon Warrior and possesses four different types of advanced divine abilities, his future achievements are very limited.

But, he knew well:

Wyatt Barnes’s talent root is not ’Yellow Root’, but is in fact ’Green Root’!

To verify this information, his first direct disciple Jackson Wilson was even executed by the Enforcement Hall of the Holy Land!

After a while, Maximus Lee, with a sullen face, lifted his head, his cold gaze darting towards the direction of the Fire Worship Sect’s Holy Land, muttering: "It’s good that he’s gone to the Holy Land... Then, Wade Yorke, along with my other two direct disciples, can take action against him!"

The ’Wade Yorke’ that Maximus Lee mentioned was the elder brother of ’Warren Yorke’, whom Wyatt Barnes had eliminated upon arriving at the Black Tortoise Altar of the Fire Worship Sect, and the eldest son of the Fifth Elder of Bei Qi Sect ’Russel Yorke’.

Wade Yorke had entered the Holy Land years ago, becoming a Holy Land disciple.

Nowadays, his cultivation has stepped into the ’First Transformation of Saint Immortal’, becoming a ’True Disciple’ of the Holy Land of the Fire Worship Sect!

Upon learning his own younger brother was killed, Wade Yorke was furious, wishing he could directly go to the Black Tortoise Altar to eliminate Wyatt Barnes!

Even if he fears the rules of the Fire Worship Sect that prevent him from eliminating Wyatt Barnes, he was eager to torment Wyatt Barnes, making his life worse than death!

However, the Fire Worship Sect has strict rules; Holy Land disciples cannot enter the Four Symbols Altar without ’Elder Golden Flame’s’ permission.

Otherwise, they will be regarded as violating sect rules and subject to severe punishment!

"I reckon, Wade Yorke should have already learned about Wyatt Barnes’s arrival in the Holy Land?"

Maximus Lee’s eyes flashed sharply.
