Currently, Duan Ling Tian was still in the exclusive uniform of a Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple.
When he appeared together with the Saint Land’s patrolling elder, it, naturally, attracted the attention of many Saint Land disciples.

A Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple?
Some of the Saint Land disciples shifted their gaze to Duan Ling Tian’s uniform.

Just some time ago, there was a Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple who entered the Saint Land and became a Saint Land disciple after comprehending the treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle’s Barrier, from the Black Turtle Sanctum. It has only been less than half a month and there’s another Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple coming here?
A Saint Land disciple said in surprise.
Although they were far away, Duan Ling Tian still heard him. Naturally, Duan Ling Tian knew this Saint Land disciple was talking about Sun De when he was talking about the other Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple.


More than ten days ago, Sun De had successfully comprehended the treasured Divine Ability, Black Turtle’s Barrier, from the Black Turtle Sanctum. Not only did he obtain a full exemption from his punishment at the Four Symbols Sanctums’ First Mine, but he was also allowed to enter the Saint Land and become a disciple.
Moreover, Sun De was partly responsible for Duan Ling Tian appearing here today. After all, if Sun De did not cast the Black Turtle’s Barrier in front of him, he would not have been able to comprehend the Black Turtle’s Barrier so quickly.

Don’t tell me this Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple has also successfully comprehended the treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle’s Barrier, from the Black Turtle Sanctum? After all, there’s still some time to go before the Saint Land’s assessment takes place. The Four Symbols Sanctums’ disciple who comes to the Saint Land now would either have comprehended the treasured Divine Ability of their Sanctum or is a monstrous genius with a high innate talent and has received the recommendation from their Sanctum Leader,
another Saint Land disciple chimed in.
However, this Saint Land disciple’s words caused many people to scoff at his words.
Did you say he has also comprehended the Black Turtle’s Barrier? I think you’re thinking too much!


That’s right! The Black Turtle’s Barrier is not just the treasured Divine Ability in the Black Turtle Sanctum! It’s the number one defensive Divine Ability in our Fire Worship Sect! The difficulty level in comprehending it is definitely higher than most high-grade Divine Abilities in our Fire Worship Sect!


It’s not easy to comprehend the Black Turtle’s Barrier! In my opinion, I think this Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple must have obtained the recommendation from the Sanctum Leader of the Black Turtle Sanctum for having a high innate talent!


I think so too!

The group of Saint Land disciples discussed among themselves. Based on their words, it could be seen they believed Duan Ling Tian had been recommended by the Sanctum Leader of Black Turtle Sanctum.
Faced with such misunderstanding, Duan Ling Tian only smiled nonchalantly. He was not bothered by it at all.
The Saint Land’s patrolling elder beside him, on the other hand, shook his head after hearing the words of the Saint Land disciples while they were traveling. This was because he knew very well this Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple next to him was not recommended by the Sanctum Leader of the Black Turtle Sanctum. Instead, he had successfully comprehended the treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle’s Barrier, from the Black Turtle Sanctum. That was why he was bringing him to register himself. This was one of his responsibilities as a Saint Land’s patrolling elder!



So many people!
When Duan Ling Tian passed by a public square stretched out as far as the eyes can see, he saw many people were gathered there.
With a glance, he could see there were at least thousands of people there. The thousands of people might not be a huge number compared to the people in the four Sanctums.
However, what was this place?
Usually, a Fire Worship Sect’s disciple who could enter the Saint Land was either a genius with monstrously high innate talent or was highly talented with Divine Abilities that he managed to comprehend the treasured Divine Ability from his Sanctum before his cultivation base had even reached the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage or one who possessed a cultivation base at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage and above and had passed the Saint Land assessment.
Due to these reasons, Duan Ling Tian was surprised when he saw so many people in the Saint Land’s public square.
The thousands of people here in the Saint Land’s public square might not all necessarily be Saint Land disciples of the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land. Even then, there are at least several thousands of them who were Saint Land disciples.
What kind of strength did the Fire Worship Sect possess to have several thousands of people at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage and above?

This is the Central Square of our Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land’s Main Island. This is also the busiest place. Over here, apart from the palaces that have their own duties to attend to, this is the place where many Saint Land disciples discuss the martial arts. Many disciples who encounter obstacles in their cultivation would come here. Who knows they might be hit with a sudden inspiration and obtain a chance to break through!
The Saint Land’s patrolling elder said about the place below them.
This was the Central Square of the Saint Island!
Duan Ling Tian once again glanced at the thousands of people on the Central Square as he asked,
Elder, how many Saint Land disciples are there in the Saint Land?




Why? You’re taken aback by the sight of the thousands of people at the Central Square?
The Saint Land’s patrolling elder asked with a smile.

Yes.
Duan Ling Tian did not deny it.
There are already thousands of Saint Land disciples at the Central Square alone. There should be at least 3000 to 5000 of Saint Land disciples in the Saint Land, right?

When Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, he waited for the Saint Land’s patrolling elder to reply.

We don’t have as many as 3000 to 5000 disciples!
Upon hearing his words, the Saint Land’s patrolling elder shook his head.
I’ve just told you that many come here when they encounter obstacles in their cultivation. They came here in hopes of being inspired. It might not necessarily be an obstacle in the cultivation base. It could be their martial tactics or Divine Abilities as well. I’m sure you know in our Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land, 99% of the Saint Land disciples are at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage and above… Among these people, there are also some who are at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage. However, most of them are definitely at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage! Among the Saint Land disciples at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage, most of their cultivation base has been stuck at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage for several hundreds of years or even thousands of years! Not being able to break through to the Saint Celestial Stage means they can’t become a true disciple or even a Bronze Flame Elder!
The Saint Land’s patrolling elder explained patiently.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. He understood this.
After all, not every Saint Land disciple at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage could break through to the Saint Celestial Stage.
One would have to rely on one’s innate talent and opportunity to break through to the Saint Celestial Stage. It mostly depended on one’s innate talent.
Usually, it was almost impossible for those with green Innate Spiritual Root or lower to break through to the Saint Celestial Stage unless they came across some fortuitous encounter!
Even a person who possessed a green Innate Spiritual Root would not find it easy to break through to the Saint Celestial Stage. Only those who possessed blue Innate Spiritual Roots or above could break through to the Saint Celestial Stage without encountering a huge obstacle.
Naturally, they would still encounter small obstacles.


For example, Duan Ling Tian who possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root. His cultivation base was only at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage. Due to the reason that his cultivation speed was too fast, he would not be able to break through to the Quintessential Saint Stage for the time being no matter how hard he cultivated because his cultivation base at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage had yet to stabilize.
This was considered a small obstacle.

Actually, the thousands of Saint Land disciples gathered here in the Central Square account for more than half of the Saint Land disciples. There are about 2,000 over Saint Land disciples in the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land.
When the Saint Land’s patrolling elder spoke again, Duan Ling Tian realized he had guessed wrongly.
However, even if he had guessed wrongly, the number of Saint Land disciples in the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land was still astonishing.
This meant that there were over 2,000 people at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage or above in the Fire Worship Sect, and most of them were at the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage at least!
‘As expected from the three most powerful sects in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, their legacy and strength are not something first-rate forces can compare to, let alone those forces below first-rate forces,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
Put everything else aside, based on the news he learned from the Black Turtle Sanctum’s Enforcement Elder Guo Xiong, the Hong Clan, Hong Xu’s clan, was one of the third-rate forces in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It had been easily annihilated by Li An who was just a Silver Flame Elder.
Li An was strong and could be considered as one of the strongest among the many Silver Flame Elders in the Fire Worship Sect. This was enough to show the difference in strength between a sect like the Fire Worship Sect and a third-rate force.
‘A slightly stronger Silver Flame Elder in the Fire Worship Sect could already annihilate a third-rate force in the Upper Province with his own strength. Doesn’t this mean that a slightly stronger Golden Flame Elder alone in the Fire Worship Sect can also easily annihilate a second-rate force in the Upper Province? If the Vice Sect Leaders and the three great Guardians are sent out, wouldn’t it be easy for them to annihilate a first-rate force then?’ The moment Duan Ling Tian thought of this, he could not help but gasp. At the same time, he became deeply aware of how strong the Fire Worship Sect was.
Put aside the Fire Worship Sect’s group of Saint Land disciples, just the high-ranking officials of the Fire Worship Sect alone were strong enough to travel and change the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.



As for the palaces that have their own duties to carry out, you can come here and learn about them after you’ve registered as a Saint Land disciple,
the Saint Land’s patrolling elder told Duan Ling Tian again before bringing him to the registry for new disciples in the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land. They did not make any stops on the way over.
When they had almost arrived at the registry for the new disciples in the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land, the Saint Land’s patrolling elder suddenly looked at Duan Ling Tian and asked,
What is your name?

Ever since Duan Ling Tian came to the Saint Land and cast the treasured Divine Ability, the Black Turtle’s Barrier, from the Black Turtle Sanctum, the patrolling elder realized he still did not know the name of the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple who came from the Four Symbols Sanctums!
