Chapter 1036: Who Kills Who

Chapter 1036: Chapter 1036: Who Kills Who

Although Wyatt Barnes had long realized that the burly old man before him was a ’Martial Emperor powerhouse’, he was still taken aback when the old man displayed his ’Martial Emperor Realm’ Origin Force.

"Wyatt Barnes, from the moment you killed Riggs Leigh, your fate was sealed... I will send you to the netherworld to serve as Riggs Leigh’s slave and servant!"

Daniel Tucker’s voice boomed like thunder, rolling out and instantly sweeping across the entire Crimson Heaven Royal Palace, startling everyone within the palace.

"Wyatt... Commander Barnes has returned?"

For a moment, the faces of those startled in the palace all showed concern as they broke into a cold sweat for Wyatt Barnes.

Among them, the vast majority had never interacted with Wyatt Barnes.

However, in recent years, Wyatt Barnes, whose momentum had soared like the rising sun, had truly become a representative figure of the Crimson Heaven Royal Country and a national idol there.

Whenever the people of Crimson Heaven stepped outside their homeland and faced someone from Green Forest Royal Country or even Emperor Stone Country,

all they needed to say was, ’Wyatt Barnes is from our Crimson Heaven Royal Country’, and they would be met with envious, jealous, and resentful gazes from others.

Whenever that happened, they couldn’t help but feel secretly thrilled.

Unwittingly, Wyatt Barnes had become the spiritual pillar of most people in the Crimson Heaven Royal Country.

In such cases, when Wyatt Barnes faced a crisis, naturally many were worried about him.

"Hmm?"

Soon, Wyatt Barnes furrowed his brows.

Because, he saw.

As Daniel Tucker’s words fell, the milky-white flames on his body transformed, turning into vast, fiery red flames.

The flames surged violently, rocketing into the sky, making Daniel Tucker look as if he had transformed into an enormous beast of flame.

The beast was covered in fiery-red manes that fluttered in the air, and its gaping maw occasionally opened wide, seemingly ready to burst out and injure someone at any moment.

Whoosh!

Above the void over Daniel Tucker’s head, the forces of heaven and earth stirred. With the ’First Level Martial Emperor Realm Origin Force’ he summoned, another two thousand ancient Horned Dragon phantasms appeared beside the original two thousand.

First Level Emperor Realm Fire Essence!

For a moment, four thousand ancient Horned Dragon phantasms appeared above the void, twisting and descending with a grand momentum that brought an invisible oppression.

Yet, all this didn’t cease there.

Around the flames emanating from Daniel Tucker’s body, strands of lightning and solid blades of energy swiftly appeared, cleverly intertwining with the flames.

For an instant, another two thousand ancient Horned Dragon phantasms appeared beside the existing four thousand.

These two thousand ancient Horned Dragon phantasms appeared in two batches, each comprising a thousand.

"High-level Ninth Layer Thunder essence! High-level Ninth Layer Sword essence!"

Looking at the six thousand ancient Horned Dragon phantasms appearing above the void over Daniel Tucker’s head, Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrows but was not particularly surprised.

After all, a peak Void Realm powerhouse, if they had only comprehended two types of ’High-level Ninth Layer Transforming Void Essences’, it would be difficult to comprehend the Martial Emperor Realm warriors’ unique ’Emperor Realm Essence.’

Of course, there were exceptions.

That would be the peak Void Realm powerhouses like Niklaus Woodson, Peak Master Callen Spacewood of the Five Elements Sect, who had comprehended both water and fire ’High-level Ninth Layer Transforming Void Essences.’

Water and fire contradicted each other, producing enormous resistance.

Under that resistance, one of the essences could easily ascend reversely, transforming into ’Emperor Realm Essence’ in one fell swoop!

At that point, their entire cultivation would also break through to the ’Martial Emperor Realm’!

For a peak Void Realm powerhouse like Callen Spacewood, breaking through to the ’Martial Emperor Realm’ was almost a certainty, merely a matter of time.

When the time came, everything would fall into place naturally.

Daniel Tucker, who had obviously comprehended three types of ’High-level Ninth Layer Transforming Void Essences’ in the past as a peak Void Realm powerhouse, managed to have his Fire Essence transformed first under the pressure of the other two essences.

Transformed into ’First Level Emperor Realm Fire Essence’!

The power of six thousand ancient Horned Dragons was just the force that Daniel Tucker displayed without using a spirit sword; once he employed a spirit sword, his strength would undoubtedly be even more formidable.

As a Martial Emperor powerhouse like Daniel Tucker came from a Third-Rate Power outside territory, he might not have a ’Grade One spirit sword,’ but he sure had a ’Grade Two spirit sword.’

A Grade Two spirit sword typically amplifies ’seventy-seven to seventy-eight percent’ of power.

On top of the base force comparable to two thousand ancient Horned Dragons that Daniel Tucker wielded, the amplified force would be more than one thousand five hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

That is to say.

Once he employed a Grade Two spirit sword, Daniel Tucker’s strength would be comparable to the power of over seven thousand five hundred ancient Horned Dragons!

The power of seven thousand five hundred ancient Horned Dragons, what does that entail?

Even now, Wyatt Barnes, having comprehended the ’High-level Fifth Layer Sword Essence’ from the character ’sword’ left by Sword Saint Kieran in the Cloud Skies Continent,

even if he used an Emperor Grade spirit sword and exerted all his techniques, his power would barely match three thousand five hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

Sixth level Transforming Void Realm cultivation, comparable to eight hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

Emperor Grade spirit sword, adding eight hundred ancient Horned Dragons worth of power.

First level high-grade Thunder Essence, comparable to two hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

Third level high-grade Wind Essence and Third level high-grade Fire Essence, each comparable to four hundred ancient Horned Dragons; ’using wind to bolster fire’ would add an extra two hundred ancient Horned Dragons... in total, making a thousand ancient Horned Dragons.

The mid-tier of the nine levels of Earth Realm, equivalent to the power of a hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

The high-tier of the fifth level of the Sword Realm, comparable to the power of six hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

This is all the power Wyatt Barnes can exert now, without any reservation.

Three thousand five hundred ancient Horned Dragons in strength!

Of course, to say there was no reservation isn’t entirely accurate.

After all, the Earth Realm can communicate with the earth and borrow the "Earth’s Force."

With Wyatt’s current understanding of the "Earth Realm," the Earth’s Force he can borrow is comparable to fifty ancient Horned Dragons in strength.

However, Wyatt, currently high in the sky, simply can’t utilize the Earth’s Force.

Not just now.

Even normally, or in the future.

Unless he is in an environment similar to the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure’ left by Breezy Wind, otherwise, no one would easily fight on the ground against a fighter who has mastered the ’Earth Realm.’

"It seems you truly are not afraid of death!"

Daniel Tucker, under the phantasm of six thousand ancient Horned Dragons, stated coldly as he stared intently at Wyatt Barnes, word by word.

"Is being afraid useful?"

Wyatt retorted.

"You are quite stubborn... I’ve changed my mind. I still plan to kill you, but before I kill you, I will destroy your dantian, and then let you watch as I slice the flesh from your body bit by bit!"

"I will let you watch your own legs, and even your arms, turn into bone skeletons without any flesh... As long as you faint, I will make sure you come to, until all your blood is drained, and you die slowly."

Daniel Tucker’s eyes flickered with cold light, and a sinister cold smile appeared on his lips as he spoke unhurriedly.

As soon as Daniel Tucker said this, the three Emerging Cloud Sect elders standing behind him couldn’t help but shiver.

The image described by the Elder seemed so horrifying that they trembled at merely the thought of it, let alone the person who would actually experience it.

For a moment, the trio looked at Wyatt Barnes with a bit more pity in their eyes.

"It seems the Elder is truly furious this time!"

"I never thought the Elder had such a bloody, brutal side to him! It didn’t show in the past."

...

The three Emerging Cloud Sect elders exchanged thoughts secretly using Origin Force, their tone full of genuine fear.

As for Wyatt Barnes, his face also involuntarily changed upon hearing Daniel Tucker’s words.

To destroy his dantian and let him witness his own flesh being sliced piece by piece?

"What? Are you scared? Regretting?"

Noticing the change in Wyatt’s expression, Daniel Tucker couldn’t help but sneer, "The moment you killed my disciple ’Riggs Leigh,’ you should have anticipated this."

"Scared? Regretful?"

Upon hearing Daniel Tucker’s words, Wyatt snapped back to his senses, his face quickly returning to calm as he looked coldly at Daniel Tucker, "Old man, are you crazy in the head?"

"Before I killed Riggs Leigh, I knew he was one of ’Emerging Cloud Sect’s’ people, and even more that he was your disciple under the Martial Emperor."

Wyatt spoke unhurriedly: "If I were scared or regretful... do you think I would have killed him?"

"Idiot!"

Towards the end, under the stunned expressions of Daniel Tucker and the three Emerging Cloud Sect elders, Wyatt quickly spit out two words and disdainfully glanced at Daniel Tucker.

"This Wyatt Barnes... calling the Elder ’idiot’? Am I hearing this right?"

One of the Emerging Cloud Sect elders looked hesitantly at his two companions as he communicated using Origin Force.

"You heard right."

Another one of the Emerging Cloud Sect elders shook his head, feeling a tingling on his scalp, "Could it be that Wyatt thinks he is not dying fast enough?"

"Perhaps, he is indeed scared of not dying quickly enough... After all, if really done as the Elder suggested, Wyatt is indeed going to be horrifically sliced to death! And then, with all his cultivation destroyed, he will neither live nor die as he wishes!"

The last Emerging Cloud Sect elder voiced his opinion.

For a moment, the other two nodded, finding it reasonable.

"Hmph!"

At the same time, Daniel Tucker, originally enraged by Wyatt, snorted coldly, releasing his agitated emotions.

"Wyatt Barnes, do you think I would fall for your trick? If you want a swift death, I will make sure you don’t get it!"

Daniel Tucker looked at Wyatt with piercing icy eyes, "Today, no matter how you anger me... I still won’t change my initial intent! I, will destroy your cultivation and let you watch as the flesh is sliced from your body, piece by piece!"

Hearing Daniel Tucker’s words, Wyatt was somewhat speechless.

"Daniel Tucker, aren’t you overestimating yourself? Do you really think I called you ’idiot’ because I wanted to anger you, to provoke you into killing me outright?"

Wyatt’s face showed a cold smile, his eyes glinting with murderous intent as he glanced at the three Emerging Cloud Sect elders who were watching him before finally turning his gaze back to Daniel Tucker.

"Let’s see who kills whom!"
