Chapter 1246: Chapter 1246: Top Ten Sacred Artifact List

Kingston Stone, the Martial Emperor, was utterly stunned.

So much so that he didn’t even hear what Karina Hanson was saying.

His mind kept replaying the scene he had just witnessed. Facing a little girl in white, who seemed no older than ten, he had used his "almost Emperor Grade spiritual weapon" and fought with all his might, yet still, he was defeated.

It was in this moment that he realized.

This little girl in white was not just a Demon Emperor powerhouse; she was a Demon Emperor whose strength far surpassed his own!

Moreover, this Demon Emperor had come for the purple-clad youth from before.

"Didn’t you hear my Sister Julia asking you a question?"

As the immature yet chilling voice entered Kingston Stone’s ears, he shivered and snapped back to reality.

This voice, he was naturally familiar with it.

It was the same voice of the little girl in white who had just defeated him.

Suddenly, he looked towards the young girl in yellow not far away, his face showing panic, and his eyes filled with nothing but dread.

What a joke!

That little girl in white already possessed strength greater than his.

This yellow-clad girl, referred to as "Sister" by her, another suspected ’Demon Emperor’ existence, might have strength even greater than hers.

"Could... could you repeat that?"

Kingston Stone asked Karina Hanson somewhat fearfully; his words were excessively polite, a stark contrast to his previously aggressive demeanor, as if he were a completely different person.

Of course, this was because he had not known the strength of the little girl in white before. Had he known, he definitely would not have dared to act that way.

In the Cloud Skies Continent, respect is given to the powerful.

Even though he was a Martial Emperor and normally held in high esteem among common warriors, faced with someone more powerful than himself, he had to act as humble as a grandchild.

The hardships a Martial Emperor faced on their journey were incomparable to those of ordinary warriors.

To survive, they could even commit any insane act, not to mention humbling themselves temporarily.

Karina Hanson gave Kingston Stone a cold glance and somewhat impatiently repeated what she had just said.

Upon hearing this, Kingston Stone dared not delay and hurriedly answered.

Starting from the moment he saw Wyatt Barnes, he narrated everything up to the battle with Wyatt, who gained power rivaling his own through a mysterious monument and fought him.

He dared not conceal the events that followed, disclosing everything.

Including Wyatt losing his senses and leaving, Winnie Romero being taken away, and the mysterious monument being deceitfully taken by his own disciple, Isaac Campbell; he laid everything bare.

Now, he couldn’t care less about losing face; nothing was more important than his life.

He didn’t dare lie, because it was too risky.

If these two young maidens were dissatisfied and out of irritation decided to kill him, then he would really be at a loss.

"A monument? It made Brother Wyatt lose his senses?"

Karina Hanson frowned and looked at Kingston Stone, asking, "Now, describe that monument to me."

Currently, regarding that monument which could cause one to lose their senses and possess formidable power, Karina Hanson already had a guess but dared not confirm it fully.

"If it really is the ’Demon Sealing Monument’... that’s bad news for Brother Wyatt."

As Karina Hanson questioned Kingston Stone, her heart sank, filled with worry.

Facing Karina Hanson’s question, Kingston Stone dared not delay and quickly described the ’traits’ of the monument he knew, "Oddly enough... the monument was missing a corner."

"It really is the ’Demon Sealing Monument’!"

Hearing Kingston Stone’s description, Karina Hanson’s expression turned grim, "How could this be a coincidence... The Demon Sealing Monument, to be precisely in Brother Wyatt’s possession?"

Karina Hanson still remembered.

Back then, she and Ruby came to Cloud Skies Continent, where aside from her coming to relax and have fun, Ruby was specifically tasked by her father to find the ’Demon Sealing Monument’.

Because her father had received information that the Demon Sealing Monument should be at this ’mortal continent’ of Cloud Skies Continent.

She originally thought that, concerning Cloud Skies Continent, she was just a passerby.

However, she never expected to encounter her Brother Wyatt here and also meet three extraordinarily talented youngsters, thus forming an unbreakable bond with Cloud Skies Continent.

"Back then, Ruby spent several years searching every corner of Cloud Skies Continent and never found the ’Demon Sealing Monument’... yet, unexpectedly, it was in Brother Wyatt’s hands."

At this moment, Karina Hanson’s feelings were complicated, and simultaneously, she worried for Wyatt Barnes.

The terror of the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ was all too clear to her.

"You just said, Brother Wyatt discarded that monument and left?"

Karina Hanson asked again.

"Yes."

Kingston Stone dared not delay and quickly nodded, "He didn’t just leave the monument behind; he didn’t even take his close female companion with him."

"How do you prove that everything you just said is true?"

Karina Hanson stared intently at Kingston Stone, her eyes involuntarily narrowing, a flash of cold light passing through.

"I, Wyatt Barnes, the Martial Emperor, swear by the ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation’... if there was any falsehood in what I just said, may I be bombarded to death by Thunder Punishment!"

Sensing the chilling light in Karina Hanson’s eyes, Wyatt Barnes, the Martial Emperor, trembled inside. In his haste, he swore an oath by the ’Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation,’ an oath of calamity.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

...

In the blink of an eye, nine thunderous sounds traveled from the horizon in response to the Martial Emperor’s oath.

The Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation, known as the ’Oath’s Calamity,’ is such that even the strongest Martial Emperors must not violate it, lest they be reduced to rubble by the Thunder Punishment.

Since Wyatt Barnes now dared to make such an oath, it showed that he hadn’t lied earlier.

Wyatt Barnes left behind the Demon Sealing Monument.

The Demon Sealing Monument was later swapped out and taken away by his own disciple, ’Isaac Campbell.’

Winnie Romero was taken away by a powerful individual named ’Redflame.’

After making the oath, the Martial Emperor couldn’t help but sigh with relief, thankful for his foresight in not lying, otherwise, he feared that he would not have escaped that predicament.

"You’d better pray that my Brother Leandro is alright... otherwise, I will annihilate every living soul in the Stone Forest!"

Karina Hanson cast a cold glance at the Martial Emperor, then swiftly vanished from his sight with incredible speed.

Throughout it all, the Martial Emperor never quite saw Karina Hanson’s figure clearly.

"Just as I expected... her strength is even above that of this little girl in white."

Wiping the cold sweat from his brow, the Martial Emperor looked towards the little girl in white standing not far away, his face filled with uneasy apprehension, fearful that she might not let the matter rest.

"Hmph!"

As Little White snorted softly and followed Karina Hanson away, the Martial Emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as though a heavy burden had been lifted.

In a short while, Little White caught up with the slowing Karina Hanson and asked, "Sister Julia, he actually wanted to kill Brother... why didn’t you just kill him on the spot?"

"Don’t you think... it would be better if Brother Leandro found him himself to seek revenge?"

Karina Hanson replied.

Realization dawned on Little White, and then as if recalling something, she asked worriedly, "But what if, somehow, Brother..."

Little White didn’t finish her sentence, but her meaning was clear.

"If Brother Leandro really is harmed, I’ll exterminate his entire lineage in the Stone Forest! It doesn’t matter where the Martial Emperor hides, I will find him and kill him."

Little White’s words, like a fuse, completely ignited Karina Hanson, the ’powder keg.’

"Brother definitely won’t be harmed."

Little White murmured.

"I hope so too."

Karina Hanson nodded, her eyes filled with worry.

From the Martial Emperor’s account, she guessed what her Brother Leandro had endured, "Brother Leandro forcefully triggered the residual soul power in the Demon Sealing Monument, underwent a ’Devil Transformation’, thereby possessing extraordinary strength."

"However, after the ’Devil Transformation’, he would lose his sanity... now, I just hope it was his first time using the Demon Sealing Monument, otherwise, it would be troublesome."

What worried Karina Hanson the most was exactly this point.

The Demon Sealing Monument, when used for the first time, might have some side effects, but it wouldn’t cost a life.

However, if used repeatedly, the side effects could be severe enough to cost a person’s life, even if his body still lived on, it would just be a shell.

A shell controlled by the residual soul power from the Demon Sealing Monument.

"Sister Julia, I just heard you mention something about the ’Demon Sealing Monument’... was that the ’mysterious monument’ the Martial Emperor talked about?"

Quickly, Little White recalled Karina Hanson’s mumblings which, though quiet, she had still heard.

"Yes, it’s the Demon Sealing Monument."

Karina Hanson nodded.

"What exactly is the Demon Sealing Monument? Why can it grant Brother such immense power in a short time? And it seems the side effects are quite significant."

Taking in the Martial Emperor’s words, Little White couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"The Demon Sealing Monument... is one of the top ten artifacts listed in the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List of the Martial Dao Sacred Land."

Karina Hanson stated.

"What?!"

Little White exclaimed in shock. "It is said that the artifacts of the Martial Dao Holy Land are all superb sacred artifacts, extremely rare treasures... Acquiring one would be enough to dominate the Martial Dao Holy Land."

"That’s just mythologizing them. No matter how strong the sacred artifacts are, if the wielder is too weak, they won’t be able to utilize them fully... but indeed, apart from the Demon Sealing Monument, the other super sacred artifacts on the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List do enhance a martial artist’s offensive power much beyond ordinary sacred artifacts."

Karina Hanson continued.

"Why does the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ differ? Isn’t it also a super sacred artifact?"

Little White curiously asked.

"The Demon Sealing Monument qualifies as a super sacred artifact and is listed in the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List, not because of the offensive enhancements it provides to martial artists... The power increase provided by the Demon Sealing Monument is even slighter than many ordinary sacred artifacts."

"The reason it qualifies as a super sacred artifact, listed in the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List, is because of its astonishing ability... to suppress ’Demon Cultivators’!"

Karina Hanson continued, her eyes reflecting a trace of awe as she spoke.
