Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1372: High-Grade Holy Stone

Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372: High-Grade Holy Stone

In the Hidden Dragon Camp, Wyatt Barnes lay leisurely on the bed inside wooden house No. 12 atop the high platform.

This afternoon, he had unusually opted not to cultivate inside the Jewel Tower of Seven Treasures.

Compared to the stinky, dilapidated wooden houses near the cesspool beneath the platform.

The wooden house where Wyatt was now staying was simply a paradise on earth...

This was the treatment for the Thirteen Protectors!

Not only this, but over the past few days, Wyatt had also found out.

The last-ranked among the Thirteen Protectors could receive a hundred grade-eight Holy Stones every month.

As for him, the second to last, he could collect two hundred grade-eight Holy Stones each month.

The ones ranked above him followed suit accordingly.

The head of the Thirteen Protectors could receive an entire thirteen hundred grade-eight Holy Stones per month... that equates to one hundred and thirty grade-seven Holy Stones!

"One hundred and thirty Holy Stones are equivalent to thirteen grade-six Holy Stones... and that’s just for one month."

Wyatt couldn’t help but be amazed, "However, the head of the Thirteen Protectors is not only a late-stage Transcending Mortal Realm existence but also the strongest among the five late-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators in the Hidden Dragon Camp."

"With my current strength, I can’t beat ordinary late-stage Transcending Mortal Realm opponents... let alone the head of the Thirteen Protectors."

Thinking of this, Wyatt deeply felt his own weakness.

He’d been at the Hidden Dragon Camp in the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City for several days now, and during this time, he had gained a certain understanding of the Hidden Dragon Camp.

The Hidden Dragon Camp was established by the City Lord of Hill Mountain City, with the goal of recruiting and training young geniuses from the surrounding areas of Hill Mountain City.

The recruitment of young geniuses started half a year ago.

The young geniuses recruited by the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City had an age limit; only Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators under forty years of age could enter the City Lord’s ’Hidden Dragon Camp’.

The Hidden Dragon Camp is said to be a ’reserve camp’ for the thirty-six personal guards under the City Lord of Hill Mountain City.

In the surrounding areas of Hill Mountain City, the thirty-six personal guards are well known to almost everyone... they are the City Lord’s most capable lieutenants.

The weakest among them are at Small Perfection in the Transcending Mortal Realm.

It is said that the strong ones are not only at Great Cycle of the Transcending Mortal Realm, but there are also a few who have entered the Saint Realm.

Of course, these were just rumors that Wyatt had heard.

"However, it’s truly surprising that Elder Lynch is also one of the thirty-six personal guards."

Meanwhile, Wyatt also learned about Damien Lynch being ninth among the thirty-six personal guards, a ’Heavenly Elite Guard’, "It’s said that within a few years, the top ten guards among the thirty-six will become Sacrificial Elder Officers of the Main Mansion."

"By then, there will only be twenty-six personal guards left... the remaining ten guards will be selected from the Hidden Dragon Camp."

During his days in the Hidden Dragon Camp, Wyatt had been inquiring about the matters of the ’Hidden Dragon Camp’.

Of course, he did not actively seek this information.

It was lively beneath the high platform; all he had to do was leave a crack in the door of his wooden house, and he could hear the voices coming from the outside... everything he heard was said by other members of the Hidden Dragon Camp.

"Now, I too have settled down in the ’Martial Dao Sacred Land’."

Wyatt narrowed his eyes and murmured softly, "I wonder how the two girls are doing... and Karina as well. She hasn’t come looking for me, has she?"

Wyatt understood Karina Hanson.

Before finding him, she would definitely not spread the news of his disappearance to Crescent Island, as she feared worrying his two fiancées and the three little ones.

For this reason, Wyatt opted not to return for a while.

Of course, his hesitation to go back wasn’t just due to this reason, but also because he had become fearful!

Yes, he had become fearful!

On his way here, due to getting lost and facing life-and-death situations several times, he became acutely aware of the horrors of the Savage Beasts in the boundless sea and the preciousness of life.

In the past, to have the power to protect himself, he even spent three years in seclusion on the second layer of the Jewel Tower of Seven Treasures, successfully opening fifteen Saint Veins and breaking through to the ’early stage of the Transcending Mortal Realm’.

However, even with the strength of the early-stage Transcending Mortal Realm, he had almost been killed by several savage beasts in the late-stage Transcending Mortal Realm before.

Fortunately, Damien Lynch was present and saved him.

Therefore, before having enough strength to protect himself, he temporarily does not plan to return to the Cloud Skies Continent.

"Strength... my current strength is still too weak."

Sighing, Wyatt stood up and closed the door of the wooden house... instantly, the noisy sounds from outside became very faint, negligible.

After closing the door, Wyatt took out the Jewel Tower of Seven Treasures and placed it inside the wooden house.

With a thought, Wyatt entered the Jewel Tower of Seven Treasures.

"Elder Fire, remind me in two and a half months."

After greeting Elder Fire, Wyatt climbed to the second layer of the Jewel Tower of Seven Treasures...

Of course, the two and a half months that Wyatt Barnes mentioned refers to the time span on the second layer of the Jewel Tower.

Two and a half months on the second layer of the Jewel Tower is equivalent to nearly one month outside.

By then, it will also be the day when members of the Hidden Dragon Camp receive their Holy Stones.

Ranked ’twelfth’ among the thirteen guardians, he would be able to collect two hundred eighth-grade Holy Stones then.

Although two hundred Holy Stones are nothing compared to the thousands of high-grade Holy Stones given to him by Karina Hanson before... even a mosquito’s meat is still meat.

After arriving on the second layer of the Jewel Tower, Wyatt Barnes did not rush to cultivate but began to assess his current strength.

"With my current strength, wielding the ’Sun Shooting Bow’, I should hardly encounter any rivals among mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators."

A thought crossed Wyatt’s mind, as he mused inwardly.

Of course, he dared not guarantee that he could defeat all mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators...

If it was someone who cultivated saint-grade martial arts or saint-grade Taoist Techniques to a very high level in the mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm, he might not be their match.

"Compared to other mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators, my current advantages, other than a body stronger than the Five-Clawed Divine Dragon, are the ’Sun Shooting Bow’... Though with my strength, I can’t fully unleash the bow’s power, the might it currently displays in my hands far surpasses that of a mid-grade human-level Holy Artifact in the hands of someone in the mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm."

A few days ago, Wyatt Barnes witnessed firsthand Jemma Clifford, Foresty Crawford, and Luis Lee using a mid-grade human-level Holy Artifact... so he could be certain of this.

"As for the advantage of my Saint Veins... it is only apparent when compared to Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators at the same level."

Wyatt Barnes contemplated internally.

After all, as a Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artist, he had only opened his Saint Veins once.

"However, this is all because the True Energy in my Qi sea is limited. If I can break through to ’mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm’... I’m confident that even without relying on my physical strength or the Sun Shooting Bow, I could easily defeat full-strength mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators!"

On this point, Wyatt Barnes was very confident.

By then, the number of Saint Veins within his body would not be comparable to that of any other mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists or Taoist Cultivators.

If he were to duel with Martial Artists or Taoist Cultivators of the same level, before they could release much True Energy from their Qi sea, his True Energy would have already flowed out through his numerous Saint Veins.

As long as he took the initiative, his opponents often were defeated before they could muster their True Energy.

"Mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm... I wonder how long it will take for me to break through."

Wyatt Barnes’s heart was filled with anticipation, and he immediately prepared for cultivation.

At this moment, he took out the Holy Stones given to him by Karina Hanson, one ’fifth-grade Holy Stone’... This was his first time using the Holy Stones given to him by Karina Hanson for cultivation.

The last breakthrough from the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm to the ’early-stage Transcending Mortal Realm’ took a full three years of cultivation using ninth-grade Holy Stones... Over those three years, he had nearly exhausted all the ninth-grade Holy Stones.

Those ninth-grade Holy Stones were all ’stock’ from Crescent Island.

Wyatt Barnes did not want to waste, so he decided to use up all the lower-grade Holy Stones in his possession first.

Now, having used up the ninth-grade Holy Stones and broken through to the ’early-stage Transcending Mortal Realm’, he only had the high-grade Holy Stones given to him by Karina Hanson left for cultivation.

The thousands of Holy Stones Karina Hanson gave him were ninety percent ’fifth-grade Holy Stones’, with the remaining ten percent being ’fourth-grade Holy Stones’.

Nine Dragons War Sovereign, Nine Dragons Transformation!

Clasping a fifth-grade Holy Stone, Wyatt Barnes closed his eyes.

At the same time, he began to absorb the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth from the second layer of the Jewel Tower for cultivation.

Though the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth in the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City was rich, it was only equivalent to the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth available in the first layer of the Jewel Tower.

The Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth on the second layer of the Jewel Tower far surpassed that of the Main Mansion of Hill Mountain City.

While absorbing the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth from the second layer of the Jewel Tower and the Spiritual Energy stored within the fifth-grade Holy Stone... after a Great Cycle, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes suddenly opened.

"The speed of cultivation using a fifth-grade Holy Stone is not much faster than with a ninth-grade Holy Stone... however, the Spiritual Energy contained within is indeed much more abundant than that of a ninth-grade Holy Stone."

Wyatt Barnes looked at the fifth-grade Holy Stone in his hand, noting that the Spiritual Energy flowing into his body from the Holy Stone seemed almost tangible.

"According to Julia, these fifth-grade Holy Stones last much longer compared to ninth-grade Holy Stones... With my current rate of cultivation, a ninth-grade Holy Stone can be used up in one day."

Of course, this is because Wyatt Barnes’s rate of cultivation is ridiculously fast.

With fifteen Saint Veins absorbing Spiritual Energy for cultivation, his speed of cultivation even surpasses the vast majority of mid-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists...

After all, the number of Saint Veins is key to the speed at which one can absorb Spiritual Energy from heaven and earth.

That’s also why those with more Saint Veins cultivate faster.

Ordinary early-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators, if compared in cultivation speed with Wyatt Barnes, would undoubtedly be dismayed.

"Ordinary early-stage Transcending Mortal Realm Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators would need a few days to deplete one ninth-grade Holy Stone."

"During the cultivation process, frequent changing of Holy Stones to a certain extent can also affect the speed of cultivation... so, if the conditions allow, it is better to use high-grade Holy Stones for cultivation, which can be used for an extended time without changing."

At this time, Wyatt Barnes also appreciated the benefits of high-grade Holy Stones.
