Initially, I thought the transformation of my Innate Spiritual Root would increase my cultivation speed and improve my cultivation base in a short period of time. However, it seems like there's still a limit to it! "
After cultivating for a while, Duan Lingtian managed to make two breakthroughs in his cultivation base.
For example, before he had broken through to the peak of the Divine Saint Stage, his cultivation base had only just broken through to the Mastery Divine Saint Stage. His foundation was not stable at all.
It was precisely because of this unstable foundation that he was repeatedly hindered in his later cultivation.
'If it weren't for this hindrance, I could've saved one-third of the time!'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
If it were not for his unstable foundation, he was confident he would be able to break through from the Mastery Divine Saint Stage to the peak of the Divine Saint Stage in a month.
Due to his unstable foundation, it took him half a month to break through.
Of course, the one month and half a month referred to the time in the outside world.
One and a half months in the outside world was equivalent to one year and three months in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
The ratio of time in the outside world to the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was one to ten.
'If I continue to cultivate, although I'll be able to break through to the Exemplary Saint Stage in the end, it'll take me a lot of time. It's better for me to stop cultivating for a while and focus on other things such as comprehending Divine Abilities and comprehending the Sovereign Heart Sword.'
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he stopped cultivating as well.
In fact, he did not need to deliberately stabilize his cultivation base. All he needed was some time, and it would naturally stabilize.
'There's still a month before I have to go to the Four Symbols Sanctums' First Mine to serve. A month outside is equivalent to ten months in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. During this time, I'll try to comprehend the Black Turtle Sanctum's most treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle's Barrier!
I don't believe I won't be able to comprehend it with my heart that has been tempered by the Sovereign Heart Sword! '
Soon after, Duan Lingtian made up his mind.
In the following period of time, he would meditate on the Black Turtle Sanctum's most treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle's Barrier. At the same time, he would allow his cultivation base to undergo a transition period and further stabilize his foundation.
"But … two months have already passed in the outside world, and Li An still hasn't made a move. It seems like he was rejected when he went to the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall! "
Before Duan Lingtian comprehended the Divine Ability, the Black Turtle's Barrier, he thought of the Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder, Li An.
He still remembered:
Two months ago, he had killed the Yuan brothers at the Vermilion Bird Altar. He should have been sentenced to death.
However, since he had displayed his Innate Spiritual Root in front of the Black Turtle Sanctum's Enforcement Elder Guo Xiong and the Vermilion Bird Sanctum's Enforcement Elder Wu Yi, both of them dismissed the idea of killing him.
Martial geniuses with blue Innate Spiritual Roots were the main targets of Zoroastrianism.
It was not unforgivable for such an existence to kill one or two ordinary disciples.
After all, compared to the death of one or two ordinary disciples, the death of such a genius was a greater loss to Zoroastrianism!
Given the choice, he would naturally choose to protect the latter.
If the former died, then so be it. It didn't affect the overall situation.
This further explained that the Dao Martial Saint Land was a world where the strong preyed on the weak.
Even in a powerful force like Zoroastrianism, under the strict rules of Zoroastrianism, disciples with high innate talent and value who would be favored by Zoroastrianism in the future could also break the rules and receive preferential treatment.
Two months ago, Duan Lingtian was able to turn the situation around because he had displayed his value.
He possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root!
'Now, Li An must have found out that I possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Two months ago, Li An refused to accept Guo Xiong's decision and had declared that he would go to the Saint Land Enforcement Hall to overturn Guo Xiong's decision.
However, two months had passed, and Li An did not make a move. This meant he did not overturn Guo Xiong's decision.
'The dossier that Elder Guo Xiong submitted to the Saint Land Enforcement Hall must have stated that I possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Otherwise, the Saint Land Enforcement Hall wouldn't have allowed him to do as he pleases!
After all, it's fine if I killed Yuan Hong. Many people saw him attacking me first. However, it's not right for Yuan Kuang to do so. '
Previously, the reason Duan Lingtian dared to kill the Yuan Brothers was because he possessed an Innate Spiritual Root that was about to transform.
At that time, his Innate Spiritual Root was dark green.
If he took another step forward, he would possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root.
As it turned out, he was right.
After he killed the Yuan Brothers and devoured their Innate Spiritual Roots, his Innate Spiritual Root had successfully transformed from a green Innate Spiritual Root to an indigo Innate Spiritual Root.
If he did not reveal his blue Innate Spiritual Root and prove his value, the Black Turtle Sanctum's Enforcement Elder Guo Xiong and Wu Yi would not have changed their minds so much after the appearance of the Flame Territory.
In the end, they even protected him at all costs!
In order to protect him, he even made up some high-sounding words.
It was all for the sake of justifying their actions!
Naturally, this justification was undoubtedly a huge joke to the Vermilion Bird Sanctum's disciples who were present that day.
Because anyone could see that the two Law Enforcing Elders were spouting nonsense.
However, what else could they do?
As long as the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall did not pursue this matter, it would be a foregone conclusion.
"Based on the current situation, this matter should be a foregone conclusion. As for serving the Four Symbols Sanctums' First Mine, it won't affect me at all."
"According to the Four Symbols Sanctums' rules, the Four Symbols Sanctums' disciples who are punished to serve in the mine will be exempted from the punishment as long as they're qualified to enter the Saint Land!"
Duan Lingtian had heard about how the Four Symbols Sanctums' disciples would be punished to serve in the mine if they made a mistake.
He also knew that he would be exempted from the punishment as long as he could enter the Saint Land.
"It's not difficult for me to enter the Saint Land of Zoroastrianism. With my current strength, it's enough for me to pass the Saint Land's assessment and become a Saint Land's disciple! However, there's still some time before the next Saint Land assessment. "
For this reason, in Duan Lingtian's opinion, even if he went to the Four Symbols Sanctums' First Mine, he would not have to stay for long.
When the Saint Land assessment began, he would be able to leave the mine.
As long as he could pass the Saint Land's assessment and become a Saint Land's disciple, he would be exempted from the punishment of serving ten years.
'In the next ten months, I'll properly comprehend the Black Turtle Sanctum's most treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle's Barrier! I don't believe I won't be able to comprehend the Black Turtle's Barrier, the number one defensive Divine Ability in Zoroastrianism! '
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he discarded all distracting thoughts and immersed himself in comprehending the Divine Ability, the Black Turtle's Barrier.
He had memorized a lot of information about the Black Turtle's Barrier when he went to the Black Turtle Altar previously. It was very convenient for him to comprehend it now.
While Duan Lingtian was comprehending the Divine Ability, the Black Turtle's Barrier, Li An was in a bad mood.
'Don't tell me that Duan Lingtian really possesses a blue Innate Spiritual Root? However, during the innate talent assessment, the result of his Innate Spiritual Root was only yellow! Don't tell me he can hide his cultivation base and his Innate Spiritual Root as well? '
Li An's expression was grave.
More than a month ago, he had gone to the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall with the intention of overturning Guo Xiong's verdict on Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian must have killed Yuan Kuang on purpose!
Any Vermilion Bird Sanctum's disciple would be able to testify to this.
For this reason, when he went to the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall, he was filled with confidence that he would be able to overturn Guo Xiong's verdict on Duan Lingtian.
In his opinion.
As long as he could overturn Guo Xiong's verdict, the Saint Land Enforcement Hall would definitely send a Saint Land Enforcement Elder to intervene.
At that time, Duan Lingtian would definitely die!
However, while imagination was beautiful, reality was cruel.
When he arrived at the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall and saw the dossier that Guo Xiong had submitted regarding his verdict on Duan Lingtian, Li An was dumbfounded.
This was because the dossier that Guo Xiong had submitted stated that Duan Lingtian might have killed the Vermilion Bird Sanctum's disciple, Yuan Kuang, on purpose. However, since Duan Lingtian was a Martial Dao genius with a blue Innate Spiritual Root, according to the unspoken rules of Zoroastrianism that was above the rules of Zoroastrianism, it was not appropriate to sentence Duan Lingtian to death for the death of an ordinary Vermilion Bird Sanctum's disciple like Yuan Kuang.
For this reason, Guo Xiong had decided to send Duan Lingtian to the Four Symbols Sanctums' First Mine to serve his sentence.
The Saint Land's Enforcement Hall had also approved of this verdict.
A Martial Dao genius with a blue Innate Spiritual Root was worthy of being given the green light in this matter.
"Blue Innate Spiritual Root? How's that possible?! "
After Li An finished reading the dossier, he felt as though his heart was being trampled on by thousands of horses. He could not calm down for a long time.
Then, he immediately accused Guo Xiong of falsifying the dossier.
This was because he was certain Duan Lingtian only possessed a yellow Innate Spiritual Root and not a blue Innate Spiritual Root.
However, the elder on duty in the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall replied to him as follows:
"Before we have sufficient evidence to prove that the Black Turtle Sanctum's Enforcement Elder Guo Xiong falsified the dossier, the Enforcement Hall won't accept your accusation since there's no proof!
Naturally, if you insist on suing him, you can do so as well!
"Our Law Enforcement Hall will send a Law Enforcement Elder to travel with you and verify if what you said is true or false … If the final result proves that what you said is false, our Law Enforcement Hall will deem you as blasphemous against the Law Enforcement Hall and will severely punish you!"
However, the words of the elder on duty in the Saint Land's Enforcement Hall that day made Li An hesitate.
Blasphemy against the Enforcement Hall was not a small crime!
