Wutian looked at the gloomy First Palace Master and did not know what to say.
He wanted to keep a low profile, but in the eyes of others, he was too high-profile.
Now, he was in a difficult position.
He only had two options now. The first was to tell the truth.
However, it was even more unbelievable that he had become a Ninth Tribulation Divine Spirit in just over nine thousand years. Would they believe him?
More importantly, if he really told the truth, it would definitely attract the attention of the big shots in the Holy World.
For example, the Sacred Lord, Xuanyuan Ao.
Although his temperament had changed greatly, he was not sure if Xuanyuan Ao could recognize him.
What if he recognized him?
With his current strength, he could not fight Xuanyuan Ao at all.
The second option was to keep a low profile and change the time to become a little longer.
For example, one hundred thousand years or two hundred thousand years.
However, this would be a crime of deceit.
The First Palace Master had already decided to kill him. If he knew that he was deceiving him, he would probably turn hostile on the spot.
However … It was not that there was no turning point.
This turning point was the profound meaning of life and death.
Previously, when they were talking about the Life and Death Upanishad, the Head Palace Master was obviously a little shocked and had a whole new level of respect for Shi Yan. Perhaps, the Head Palace Master would spare his life or give him a lighter punishment because of the Life and Death Upanishad.
After weighing the pros and cons, Wutian sighed deeply and cupped his hands. "First Palace Master, I'm guilty."
The First Palace Master asked, "What are you guilty of?"
Wutian said, "It took me two hundred thousand years to become a Ninth Tribulation Divine Spirit. However, in order to attract attention and save my life, I lied about the time. I was in the wrong first. If the First Palace Master wants to punish me, I have nothing to say."
Hearing this, the First Palace Master raised his eyebrows under the mask. He looked at Wutian for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure you were just lying?"
Wutian nodded. "I'm telling the truth this time."
The First Palace Master asked, "Do you dare to swear a blood oath?"
"Blood oath?"
Wutian could not help but raise his eyebrows. Was this not forcing him to tell the truth?
But in his heart, he felt incomparably bitter. Other people were constantly showing off their outstanding points in order to attract the attention and attention of the higher-ups, but he was doing everything possible to hide the truth. Even if he told them, no one would believe him.
Suddenly, he had an idea and said with dissatisfaction, "Grand Hall Master, aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
Seeing Wutian's attitude getting worse and worse, You Mo frowned and said, "Fu Chou, you have to pay attention to propriety when speaking with the First Hall Master!"
"It's fine."
The First Palace Master waved his hand and looked at Wutian. "Tell me, how am I making things difficult for you?"
Wutian said, "A mortal's life is only a few decades. It's easy to calculate the time. But for us cultivators, our lifespan will continue to increase as our cultivation level increases. Who can remember the exact time? For example, First Hallmaster, do you dare to say that you can remember?"
The Grand Hall Master said, "I only know the general idea."
Wutian said, "It's probably just a vague concept, but a blood oath requires precise timing. Aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me by making me swear a blood oath?"
"Ugh!"
The First Palace Master was stunned.
You Mo was also stunned.
No matter what the problem was, in front of this person, he could find a lot of reasons, and the reasons he found made people speechless. Wasn't this guy's mouth too good?
The First Palace Master shook his head and said, "Fine, I'll believe you this time. I've made up my mind."
Wutian's heart sank. The atmosphere in the hall became extremely heavy at this moment, making people feel depressed!
The First Palace Master said, "I've decided to officially appoint you as an Adjudicator, but …"
"Phew!"
Wutian breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally turned the danger into safety. As long as he could get through this, let alone one but, even ten buts didn't matter.
The First Palace Master said, "You can avoid death, but you can't escape punishment. A few days ago, I received a mission. I was going to give it to someone else, but since you've entered the Adjudicator Hall, I'll let you complete it. It can be considered as making up for my mistakes."
Wutian cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for not killing me, First Palace Master. Please give me your orders."
The First Palace Master said, "Go to the Western Continent and kill a person named Li Tian."
"Li Tian!"
Wutian was shocked.
He never thought that the first mission would be to kill Li Tian.
But didn't Li Tian make great contributions to the Holy World?
Was it just a coincidence that they had the same name?
Wutian asked calmly, "First Palace Master, what does Li Tian look like?"
The First Palace Master waved his hand and a figure appeared. Who else could it be but Li Tian?
This time, Wutian was in disbelief.
Li Tian had the Spacetime Mirror and had made great contributions in the Celestial realm. But why would the upper echelons of the Holy World want to kill him?
Who was it that wanted to kill him?
Wutian asked, "First Palace Master, may I ask what crime this person committed? Where is he now? "
The First Palace Master said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Just do it. Remember, after you kill him, bring back his corpse and spatial bracelet. Don't leave anything behind. Also, he has a God-Devouring Python with him. Remember not to harm him. As for his location, someone will tell you. "
"Who?"
Wutian asked.
"In two days, she will take the initiative to look for you."
After saying that, the First Palace Master turned to You Mo and instructed, "You go with her. You must complete the mission, understand?"
"I understand."
You Mo bowed and replied.
With a wave of the First Palace Master's hand, a figure of light shot out from his sleeve and flew towards Wutian.
Wutian grabbed it and took a closer look. It turned out to be a badge. The size and pattern of the badge were exactly the same as You Mo's badge. On the back, his name was engraved — Fu Chou!
The First Palace Master said, "You Mo, bring Fu Chou to his cave abode."
"Yes."
You Mo bowed and turned to walk out of the hall.
"I'll take my leave."
Wutian put away the badge, cupped his hands, and turned to leave.
But just as he turned around, a cold light flashed in the First Palace Master's eyes. "Fu Chou, I won't order you to hand over the 21 spirit veins in your Qi Sea, but don't destroy them anymore. Otherwise, I'll definitely kill you!"
"Yes."
Wutian's footsteps paused slightly. He nodded and strode away.
He could tell that the First Palace Master was not joking this time, but would he listen?
As long as the spirit veins were still in his hands, wouldn't he have the final say?
"The First Palace Master of the Judgment Hall? Is he very powerful? Just you wait. It won't be long before I, Wutian, trample you under my feet! "
Wutian's face hidden under the mask was filled with a cold sneer and disdain.
After Wutian and You Mo left, the First Palace Master muttered to himself, "I didn't expect this child to have seen through the surface of the profound meaning of life and death at such a young age. If there is no problem with his identity, he can be listed as a key training target. But why is his identity like a mystery? It seems that I have to discuss it with the Sacred Master. "
"Swish!"
With that, he also disappeared.
Outside the hall, on the square!
When Wutian walked out of the castle, Ling Chenye immediately went up and asked, "How was it?"
Wutian: "I can walk out alive. Isn't the result obvious?"
"Phew!"
Ling Chenye took a deep breath and could finally let go of his worries.
You Mo cupped his hands and said, "Brother Fu, from now on, we are comrades-in-arms. Please take care of me in the future."
Wutian smiled faintly and said, "I'm new here. Brother You should take care of me."
You Mo chuckled and said, "If we continue to be polite, it will seem distant. Let's go, I'll take you to your cave abode and introduce you to the situation of the Sacred Hall."
"Whoosh!!!"
The three of them soared into the sky and rushed toward the east.
On the way, through You Mo's introduction, Wutian learned that there were a total of 350 adjudicators in the Judgment Hall, including him. Without a doubt, every adjudicator was a Tenth Tribulation Divine Spirit, and even the top ten adjudicators were Supremes!
However, these ten people had never appeared before. Even You Mo did not know what they looked like or their true combat strength.
The members of the Law Enforcement Hall were several times that of the Judgment Hall. According to You Mo, there were about 2,000 people scattered in various places to maintain order in the Eastern Continent. Their strength varied.
From You Mo, he also learned that there were a total of five minor realms in the Supremes.
They were Initial, Lesser, Greater, Perfected, and Perfected!
Rumor had it that the First Hall Master and Second Hall Master were both perfected Supremes.
However, this was only a rumor. Because no one had ever seen them fight, no one dared to confirm if they were perfected Supremes.
As for the various peaks of the Sacred Hall, there were also mysteries hidden!
Apart from the two main peaks of the Judgment Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall, this mountain range was divided into two areas. One was the God Spirit Peak, and the other was the Supreme Peak.
As the name suggested, the God Spirit Peak was the cave abode where the gods cultivated, and the Supreme Peak was the cave abode where the Supremes cultivated.
The difference between the two was that the Supreme Peaks were close to the two main peaks.
There were eight Primitive Spirit Meridians in each of the two main peaks. Therefore, the closer one was to the two main peaks, the better the cultivation environment.
As for the various God Spirit Peaks, they were still outside the Supreme Peak, so the cultivation environment naturally could not compare to the Supreme Peak.
In fact, there was a very simple way to distinguish them. The weaker the person, the lower the mountain peak they lived in.
However, here, everyone had their own cave abode. In other words, they could occupy a mountain peak by themselves.
Dozens of breaths later, Wutian descended in the sky above a God Spirit Peak.
You Mo smiled. "This is your cave abode."
Wutian looked down.
This God Spirit Peak was only about ten thousand feet tall. Although it was lush with vegetation, its essence energy was clearly inferior to the other God Spirit Peaks.
Furthermore, beside the peak was a boundless forest. Clearly, this was the outermost God Spirit Peak, so naturally, it was also the lowest level God Spirit Peak.
Wutian did not object to such an arrangement. However, Ling Chenye raised his brows and said in dissatisfaction, "Brother You Mo, is this the place you've arranged for us?"
You Mo shook his head. "Brother Chenye, this is the rule. Be it the Judgment Hall or the Law Enforcement Hall, as long as you're a newcomer, your cave abode will be arranged at the outermost edge. Then, you'll have to rely on your own efforts to climb up step by step. Besides, Brother Fu Chou is only a Ninth Tribulation Divine Spirit. If we arrange a better God Spirit Peak for him, others will have objections. By then, there will be endless trouble. "
Ling Chenye frowned. "But this is too bad. Compared to the Supreme Peak, it's not even one in ten thousand."
At this moment, Wutian said indifferently, "I'm more satisfied with this place. It's quiet and no one will disturb me."
Quiet was the atmosphere that Wutian had always liked.
Although the conditions here were not as good as the other God Spirit Peaks, it was more convenient to live here.
Ling Chenye said, "Brother Fu Chou, I have to remind you that the conditions of a cultivation place determine a person's cultivation speed."
