Chapter 1145: Chapter 1145: 5th Level of the Line Word Formula Chapter 1145: Chapter 1145: 5th Level of the Line Word Formula Reminded by Brian Bradley, Ethan Smith couldn't help but start considering this problem.

Once he heads to the Holy Region, he doesn't know which year or month he will be able to return. Therefore, before leaving, he must take care of all pending matters.

Over this period of time, Ethan accumulated many tasks.

Many of the tasks weren't that important, but he had promised others and had yet to deliver on his promises.

“Sigh.” Thinking about this, Ethan couldn't help but blame himself.

But he had no choice; for years, he has not had a moment's rest, always being pushed to keep moving forward at full speed due to his obligations.

“Can you defeat Obadiah Heptinstall?” Ethan asked Brian Bradley.

Brian Bradley chuckled and said, “I have no idea, should be about even, I think.”

Ethan Smith stroked his chin and said, “From what you're saying, that successor might also pose a threat to us, right?”

“Correct, we're also his main targets.” Brian Bradley said.

“I see.” Ethan nodded.

Ethan was not very concerned about his own safety, but he was somewhat worried about Frederick Cohen.

Frederick, true to his name, was too reckless. He could start a fight at any moment if he wasn't pleased with something someone said.

Though such people make good friends, they are easily provoked and thus more likely to fall into traps.

“Speaking of which, wasn't the last Sect Lord of the Immortal Slaying Sect strong?” At this moment, Ethan suddenly thought of a question.

Brian Bradley smiled and said: “Yes, the last Sect lord was the most powerful in the history of the Immortal Slaying Sect, stronger than any before him. He also amassed a lot of resources. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could have possessed all the special bloodlines and physiques.”

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Ethan's face.

The last Sect lord, his desperate situation before his death, Ethan had seen it with his own eyes!

He was practically powerless against the masked woman.

Seeing Ethan's confusion, Brian Bradley smiled and said; “That era too was a Golden Age, it wasn't the Sect lord's fault that he wasn't strong enough, the blame lies on that era for having too many prodigies.”

Upon saying this, Brian got up from the stone, yawned and said, “It's getting late, I should go have a rest.”

Ethan nodded without asking further.

After Brian left, Ethan sank into deep thought.

According to what Brian Bradley had said, that Sect lord had a power that could suppress every Sect lord of the Immortal Slaying Sect.

Each lord of the Immortal Slaying Sect was among the most formidable people of their age.

Yet such existence was mercilessly trampled in the Golden Age.

Then, how many prodigies will appear in this Golden Age?

“Truly terrifying.” Ethan shook his head.

He did not continue to think. As Brian Bradley said, his future-self has nothing to do with his present self.

Taking each step well is what he should do now.

He closed his eyes, and the scripture of the Character fighting formula emerged in his mind.

This scripture was a technique that Jackson Harris taught him, and all the mysteries of the Character fighting formula were within it.

The most profound techniques often lean on talent and comprehension ability.

Like Jackson Harris, he spent a very short time and comprehended the Character fighting formula to a terrifying realm.

Even a single line can hold endless mysteries.

Ethan could clearly feel that his cultivation might have already reached a bottleneck.

It's not about the stagnation of his mindset but the scarcity of resources.

Given Ethan's current situation, to advance to the late-term Martial Saint realm, it is feared that it would require tens or hundreds of times the resources that others need!

This is bound to be a colossal astronomical figure, and it is feared that he would have to draw on the whole earth's resources for hope.

“I hope the Holy Region has enough resources.” Ethan Smith quietly remarked.

Then, he closed his eyes and continued to comprehend the Character fighting formula.

Currently, Ethan's understanding of the Character fighting formula was only at the third level, and elevation of each state brought an enormous increase in strength.

If he can comprehend the Character fighting formula to a very powerful state, then there wouldn't be much difference from breaking through.

The next morning.

As always, Jackson Harris went out to the mountains for his breath work.

He walked up to the summit and found Ethan Smith waiting there early.

At this time, Jackson, in his white robe, looked very much like an old man practicing Tai Chi.

“Senior Jackson.” Ethan cupped his hands in a salute to Harris.

Looking somewhat puzzled, Jackson said, “Why are you here?”

“I've been waiting for you explicitly.” Ethan Smith smiled and said.

Jackson guessed that Ethan must have something to consult with him about, so he smiled and suggested, “Shall we walk and talk?”

“Yes.” Ethan agreed

The two of them were walking on the mountain peak. Their pace was very slow, much like ordinary people taking a walk.

“Sometimes, going for a walk, calming down the mind, is also a form of cultivation. If one always pursues the edge of the realm, then one might suffer from the law of excess.”

Ethan knew that he was the one implied in the words and nodded, “Senior's teachings are right.”

“Now, tell me, why were you looking for me?” Jackson got straight to the point.

Ethan Smith said solemnly: “I want to know, what is your progress on comprehending the Character fighting formula?”

Jackson remained silent for a moment, and said: “Fifth-layer.”

“Fifth-layer realm?” Ethan was shocked.

There was only a two-realm difference between them, but the increase it brought was beyond imagination!

Jackson nodded: “Yes, the fifth-rank Character fighting formula can increase my battle power by dozens of folds.”

Ethan couldn't help but gasp.

If his power could be increased tenfold, then he wouldn't necessarily lose when facing those eight mighty realm cultivators.

“Of course, everyone's physique is different.” At this point, Jackson added.

“Your increase might be greater than mine.”

Ethan, somewhat puzzled, said: “Isn't the increase brought about by the Character fighting formula fixed?”

“Yes, the multiples are fixed, but the combat power is not.” Jackson said.

“Let me give you an example; one hundred times of ten is just one thousand, but what about one hundred times of a hundred? That's ten thousand.”

“The same applies to power, one case has an increase of only nine hundred, but the other has an increase of a full nine thousand.”
