Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 2254: The Pig Demon Clan

"I initially thought that with the Minor Devouring Technique, I could break through the so-called ’bottleneck’... but I didn’t expect that even after mastering the Minor Devouring Technique to its utmost, it can’t break that ’bottleneck’!"

After a bitter smile, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

The existence of that ’bottleneck’ also meant that the Solar Saint Origin within him, even with the amplification from the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’, could at most reach a ’critical point’ comparable to that of a Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation expert’s Saint Origin.

That ’critical point’ is also the ultimate limit that a Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation expert’s Saint Origin can achieve.

If he wants to further enhance, he must undergo the ’Ascension Catastrophe’. Only by successfully passing the catastrophe can he completely break the bottleneck of the Saint Origin, allowing his internal power to further elevate.

"According to Elder Fire’s previous words... once a Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation expert successfully undergoes the catastrophe, the Saint Origin within them, upon breaking the bottleneck, will also nurture a portion of ’Immortal Origin Force’. At that time, the Saint Origin is essentially still the same as before, but because a portion of Immortal Origin Force has been nurtured, the overall power will have significantly improved compared to before!"

"Elder Fire mentioned... Immortal Origin Force can only be nurtured within the body after successfully passing the calamity."

At this thought, Wyatt Barnes sighed again, "In other words... until I have faced the Ascension Catastrophe, even if my cultivation progresses to the ’Saint Immortal Eighth Transformation’ or even the ’Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation’, my Solar Saint Origin cannot be further enhanced by the Divine Ability Minor Devouring Technique!"

"In fact... when my cultivation reaches the ’Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation’, my Solar Saint Origin won’t even need the assistance of the Divine Ability Minor Devouring Technique to reach that critical point!"

"At that time, even if I desperately use the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’, there won’t be any change in my Solar Saint Origin... By then, the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’ would be pointless in terms of enhancing my overall strength!"

Of course, saying that the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’ is pointless is in reference to Wyatt Barnes’s strength after reaching the ’Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation’.

Overall, it certainly wouldn’t be pointless.

After all, the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’, besides aiding Wyatt in enhancing his Saint Origin, has many other uses:

For instance, it can devour and elevate the grade of ’Talent Roots’.

"However, if I step into the Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation and successfully pass the ’Ascension Catastrophe’... at that time, even if I cannot use the Divine Ability Minor Devouring Technique to enhance my Saint Origin, my internal power will not only consist of Saint Origin, but also that ’Immortal Origin Force’!"

"The Saint Origin has reached the limit of the mundane plane... but the ’Immortal Origin Force’ is not restricted by the mundane plane!"

With this thought, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes lit up.

"Now... the most urgent matter is to swiftly elevate my cultivation, break through to the ’Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation’, and then face that ’Ascension Catastrophe’!"

"Once I overcome the ’Ascension Catastrophe’, I will be able to enhance my power once more through the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’... By then, my strength will receive a substantial improvement!"

Thinking about this, Wyatt Barnes’s disappointment diminished slightly.

Although still a bit disappointed, Wyatt Barnes knew that the situation was already set and beyond his ability to change.

"What I can do now, apart from cultivating and enhancing my level, is to improve my skills in other areas... Only this way can my overall strength achieve further elevation in a short period!"

"After all, before stepping into the Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation and successfully passing the catastrophe... my Solar Saint Origin is only this much."

In his low murmurs, a determined look flashed in Wyatt Barnes’s eyes.

"In the past, I relied too heavily on the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’... to the extent that my other skills made no progress."

Wyatt Barnes smiled bitterly and talked to himself.

Both the defensive Divine Ability ’Black Tortoise Protection’ and the offensive Divine Ability ’Immortal’s Flight’, as well as the supreme sword Dao heart technique ’Supreme Heart Sword’, were all set aside temporarily during that prior period.

It wasn’t until Wyatt Barnes discovered that the Divine Ability ’Minor Devouring Technique’ was providing him with diminishing returns that he realized this.

"However... even if my current strength hasn’t improved much compared to when my cultivation was at the ’Saint Immortal Sixth Transformation’, with my current power, if I go to the ’Sacred Wander Palace’, one of the three palaces and six courts of the Human Demon Clan, there is no one else I would fear besides the Palace Master!"

"Perhaps... I can first go and mix in as a ’Deputy Palace Master’."

Wyatt Barnes hadn’t forgotten about his previous ’plan’.

Thinking of this, Wyatt Barnes didn’t linger in this desert any longer, immediately turning around and heading back toward the ’Holy Demon City’.

In less than an hour, Wyatt Barnes returned to ’Holy Demon City’ and went back to the inn under the flag of the ’Crimson Flame Palace’, one of the three palaces and six courts of the Human Demon Clan.

Upon returning to the inn, Wyatt Barnes naturally planned to take Keer and her daughter, along with Paisley Flores, to the ’Sacred Wander Palace’, one of the three palaces and six courts of the Human Demon Clan.

"Sister is still in retreat training."

At this time, Wyatt Barnes also learned from Keer that:

Paisley Flores had gone into retreat training since the last time he did, and showed no sign of coming out yet.

"Then let’s wait for her a bit longer."

As he planned to wait for Paisley Flores to come out, Wyatt Barnes also didn’t forget the promise he made to his daughter, formally starting to teach her how to cultivate.

During this process, Wyatt Barnes fully realized the terror of the ’Black Talent Root’!

Watching his daughter’s cultivation improve at rocket speed, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but murmur to himself in astonishment, "This... this is just too exaggerated!?"

When Sienna’s cultivation got on track and she didn’t need to cling to him every day, Wyatt Barnes found Keer.

He said to Keer, "Keer, since Sienna’s cultivation is no longer an issue, I’m planning to go out for a while to enhance my innate spirit root, transforming it into a ’black spirit root’!"

"Brother Leandro... How long do you plan to be gone?"

Keer was more concerned about how long Wyatt would be away, as she didn’t want to be separated from him anymore.

"It shouldn’t take too long... After all, my current innate spirit root is just half a step away from transforming into a ’black spirit root’!"

Wyatt spoke as he held Keer in his arms, gently saying, "I will return quickly... Once Sienna awakens from her cultivation, please let her know."

"Okay."

Keer nodded, a face full of reluctance, "Then Brother Leandro, you must come back soon."

"Sure."

Wyatt responded, then gave Keer a gentle kiss on the forehead before leaving the inn, departing from the Holy City of the Human Demon Clan.

After leaving the Holy City of the Human Demon Clan, Wyatt headed straight north.

This time, his target wasn’t the Human Demon Clan, but other groups within the Demon Race.

While in the Holy City of the Human Demon Clan, Wyatt also learned:

About hundreds of thousands of miles north of the Holy City of the Human Demon Clan lies the territory occupied by the ’Crimson Pig Tribe’ of the Demon Race, after arriving at the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

This place used to be the station of a fourth-rate power in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

The Pig Demon Tribe, although not among the strongest clans like the Human Demon Clan and the Cow Demon Clan, is still one of the relatively powerful groups within the Demon Race.

"Previously in the tavern of the Holy City of the Human Demon Clan, I heard some say... The Crimson Pig Tribe has three ’Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation powerhouses’!"

"These three Saint Immortal Ninth Transformation powerhouses are the leaders of the Black Pig Tribe, Thunder Pig Tribe, and Crimson Pig Tribe. They are the three Clan Chiefs of the Pig Demon Tribe!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Being in the tavern of the Holy City of the Human Demon Clan, Wyatt gained a certain understanding of the Pig Demon Tribe.

"It’s said... The people of the Pig Demon Tribe are all monsters with human bodies and pig heads. This description somewhat resembles the ’Piggy’ from ancient mythological tales of my past life."

As thoughts flickered through his mind, Wyatt realized:

He had unknowingly left the vast territory occupied by the Human Demon Clan and entered the territory of the Pig Demon Tribe.

"It’s a ’Human Demon’ from the Human Demon Clan’s territory!"

Just as Wyatt realized he had entered the territory of the Pig Demon Tribe, a powerful voice came from afar, immediately drawing Wyatt’s attention.

When Wyatt focused his gaze toward where the voice came from, he indeed saw two figures before him.

These two figures both had human bodies.

However, their heads were enormously pig-headed, resembling ’Piggy’ from ancient myths of Earth exactly.

If there was a difference, it was that they weren’t as fat as Piggy.

Among these ’people’ with pig heads, one was robust, and the other was thin; the one speaking was the thinner one.

"Is this the ’Pig Demon’?"

At this moment, Wyatt found it easy to deduce their ’identity’.

"Young member of the Human Demon Clan, you’ve crossed the border... This is the territory of our Pig Demon Tribe!"

The thin ’Pig Demon’ treaded through the air towards Wyatt, arriving before him in the blink of an eye, opening his pig mouth to speak to Wyatt.

As he spoke, a wave of foul breath hit Wyatt in the face.

"Scram!"

Suddenly, Wyatt’s gaze turned cold, and with a wave of his hand, a vast and majestic Saint Origin swept out, engulfing the pig demon and its foul breath.

The pig demon was engulfed and shattered to dust.

Only a lone ’Storage Ring’ was left floating in the void.

"It’s a strong being from the Human Demon Clan!"

The other pig demon, who was robust and planned to join his thin partner, saw Wyatt effortlessly kill his companion and suddenly felt his pupils contract, his pig face twitching violently.
