Seeing the Wind Leopard pouncing, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes turned cold, he was prepared to confront it, ready for a showdown.
Just at that moment.
"Hmm?"
Wyatt Barnes’s sense of spirituality twitched, aware of three approaching figures.
Wyatt Barnes swiftly moved sideward, temporarily avoiding the Wind Leopard, and focused on the distant figures...
Those three were a woman and two men.
At that moment, the Wind Leopard pounced again, full of belligerence.
"Watch out!"
Just as he prepared to kill the Wind Leopard, a delicate warning shout reached his ears...
Wyatt Barnes could catch a whiff of fragrant wind. He saw the woman among the three gracefully moved, and in the blink of an eye, she was in front of him.
Shoo!
The graceful woman’s sword swiftly moved, and above her head, forty-six virtual shadows of ancient elephants congealed...
Third level of the Original Pill Realm!
Eighth-grade Spirit Device!
Wyatt Barnes unveiled the woman’s depth at a glance.
Although the Wind Leopard was fast, it was only relative to the second-level martial artists and Fierce Beasts of the Original Pill Realm. Standing in front of this third-level woman of the Original Pill Realm, it had no power to resist.
In the blink of an eye, the Leopard was killed by the woman with a single stroke.
"Are you okay?"
After killing the Wind Leopard, the woman looked at Wyatt Barnes with slight concern, and her expression turned into surprise as she noted his baby-like skin.
"I’m alright."
Wyatt Barnes smiled and shook his head, his gaze on the young woman in front of him.
The woman, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, though not as gorgeous as Jovie Lee or Keer, her refined and cute facial features, smooth skin, all revealed a trace of spiritual energy.
She gave him a comfortable feeling.
"You’re a disciple of our Seven Stars Sword Clan, aren’t you?"
The young woman cast her eyes on Wyatt Barnes’s disciple attire, nodded with a smile.
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes nodded. He had noticed that not only this woman was a Seven Stars Sword Clan disciple, the two men accompanying her were also disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan.
"Hello, I am Leah Sykes, a disciple of the Shimmering Light Peak."
The young woman kindly introduced herself to Wyatt, her bright eyes appearing as if they could speak.
"Wyatt Barnes, a disciple of the Heavenly Authority Peak."
Wyatt Barnes gave Leah a nod. He held a positive impression of this warm woman.
"Wyatt Barnes, did you come to the Primitive Forest alone?"
Leah Sykes looked around, not finding anyone else and asked out of curiosity.
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes nodded.
"You’re too reckless... you should have just joined the outer disciples of our Seven Stars Sword Clan, right? At your current level of the Original Pill Realm, even if you have to come to this Primitive Forest, you should look for a team. Otherwise, you might lose your life, just like what almost happened earlier."
Leah looked at Wyatt, speaking with a serious expression.
In her opinion, if she hadn’t acted timely, Wyatt Barnes would already have been dead under the claws of the Wind Leopard, without any possibility of surviving.
Wyatt Barnes could notice that Leah was genuinely concerned about him and he just nodded and replied with a smile, "Thank you for the reminder."
He knew that because he only demonstrated the power of twenty ancient elephants against the Wind Leopard earlier, she misunderstood him to be a ’first-level’ martial artist of the Original Pill Realm.
Regarding this, he didn’t explain further.
He was not the type to boast about his abilities.
"How about you join us? With us, you’ll be safer... and when the time comes, we’ll divide all the gains equally, okay? My two companions are quite formidable."
Leah looked at Wyatt Barnes and invited him.
Wyatt Barnes initially wanted to refuse, but seeing Leah’s sincere and expectant gaze, he agreed, nodding his head, "Okay, then I will be in your care."
In his opinion, since he had nothing better to do, he might as well accompany them.
"Come, let me introduce them to you."
Leah gave Wyatt Barnes a small smile and led him towards the two male disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan in the distance.
"Chaim Cruz, Dariel Burton, this is Wyatt Barnes from Heavenly Authority Peak. From now on, he’ll be joining our team to go into the Primitive Forest for training. I’ve already promised him that we’ll evenly divide all our gains."
Leah introduced Wyatt to the two male disciples.
"Hello, I’m Chaim Cruz, a disciple of the Heavenly Apex Peak."
Amongst the two male disciples, the sturdy youngster, who was about the same age as Leah, greeted Wyatt with a smile.
"Wyatt Barnes."
Wyatt Barnes also smiled at the burly youth. His principle had always been ’treat others as you would like them to treat you’.
"Humph!"
At that moment, the slender young man who was standing to one side let out a cold sneer, he looked up and down at Wyatt Barnes with disdainful eyes, frowned and said, "Leah, he’s just a ’first-level’ pretty boy of the Original Pill Realm, having him join us will only pull us down."
Wyatt Barnes’s expression darkened.
Leah and Chaim Cruz were both slightly embarrassed. Chaim Cruz said to Wyatt, "Wyatt Barnes, his name is Dariel Burton, a disciple of the Heavenly Apex Peak too. Though Dariel is about the same age as Leah and I, he’s already a fourth-level martial artist of the Original Pill Realm... His martial way’s talent is high, so he might be a bit proud, just ignore his words. We’re all disciples of the Seven Stars Sword Clan. Since we’ve bumped into each other here, it’s destiny, you can join us."
"Yeah, Wyatt Barnes, don’t take Dariel Burton’s words to heart."
Leah Sykes apologised to Wyatt with a smile.
Dariel Burton frowned as if he wanted to retort, but he noticed Chaim Cruz and Leah Sykes were looking at him and shaking their heads.
In the end, he didn’t utter a word, just huffing under his breath.
Wyatt could sense Leah and Chaim’s sincerity and had a good impression of them. He didn’t decline; he only nodded approvingly.
"Alright, let us venture together into this primeval forest, and move further in!"
Chaim Cruz let out a hearty laugh, full of vigor.
What a man!
Watching Chaim, Wyatt couldn’t help but secretly praise him.
"Wyatt Barnes, the primeval forest is vast and boundless. We’re only just at the outskirts. Moving further in, we will be nearing the interiors... the Fierce Beasts there are stronger than those here. You are relatively weaker, so stay close and don’t get separated from us."
As the group of four people advanced into the forest, Leah spoke seriously.
"Sure."
Wyatt smiled at Leah, feeling a hint of warmth in his heart.
Although he wasn’t afraid of the beasts inside, Leah didn’t know his true strength, assuming he was only a first-level martial artist of the Original Pill Realm.
"Lacking strength, and still daring to venture in the primeval forest alone, foolish."
Dariel Burton followed them with a disdainful huff, his words dripping with sarcasm.
Wyatt frowned, but when he saw Chaim and Leah sending him apologetic smiles, he smoothed out his frown. He chose to ignore Dariel, as if he hadn’t heard him.
He didn’t want to put Chaim and Leah in an awkward position.
After all, Dariel Burton is their companion.
The deeper they ventured into the forest, the more complicated the terrain got. Dense trees, wild grass, and thorns sprawled all around...
This environment - it was an ideal hideout, absolutely perfect for the Fierce Beasts.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Wyatt’s perception alerted him. He turned his gaze to the nearby bushes — right next to Chaim — and warned, "Be careful!"
Upon hearing Wyatt’s voice, Chaim was immediately alerted.
Just then, a giant wolf with azure fur emerged from the bushes, charging out with its bloodthirsty maw wide open, lunging towards Chaim.
Above the space, forty images of ancient elephant began to take shape...
A third-level beast of the Original Pill Realm!
"Gregory!"
Leah let out a cry of alarm.
Just then, Chaim sprang into action. He inclined forward slightly, and with a swift movement, the sword attached to his back was unsheathed...
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
...
A burst of azure sword light emerged, casting a sword net that covered Gregory. The dazzling sword glimmers were so blinding that one could hardly keep their eyes open.
Above Chaim’s head, forty-six images of ancient elephants began to take shape.
Clearly, like Leah, Chaim was at the ’Third layer’ of the Original Pill Realm, and his spirit weapon was of ’Tier Eight’.
"Aargh!"
Gregory let out a miserable howl as Chaim’s sword light shredded him. Blood splattered everywhere, and the wolf crashed heavily onto the ground.
With a clear sense of relief, Chaim basked in the gratitude, eyeing Wyatt, "Thank you, Wyatt, without you I would’ve been bitten."
"Exactly, Wyatt, Gregory excels at hiding. It was in the bushes, we couldn’t have noticed it...how did you manage to do it?"
Leah looked at Wyatt. She had initially thought Wyatt was weak and would need their protection, but she never expected him to possess such skills.
If not for Wyatt’s timely discovery of ’Gregory’ earlier, Chaim would’ve definitely been injured.
"From where I was standing, I could just catch sight of its pair of eerie, green eyes."
Wyatt managed a soft smile, positing a plausible explanation.
He can’t very well tell them his senses were particularly keen, right?
"Lucky jerk!"
Dariel Burton huffed in disdain, his frown dissipated. He cast Wyatt a cold glance.
Both Leah and Chaim frowned, a little unhappy with Dariel Burton.
"A ’core pill’ of a third-level Original Pill Realm beast is indeed small."
At this moment, Chaim Cruz found a ’core pill’ on Gregory’s body, glowing with a faint light.
Original Pill Realm Fierce Beasts have core pills condensed from Origin Force in their bodies.
A core pill is also a type of medicinal ingredient.
"Chaim, your ’Heavenly Net Sword Technique’ was only started a year ago when you came to the Seven Stars Sword Clan, but you’re already in the ’perfect realm’ now."
Leah looked at Chaim admiringly, "You just killed that Gregory with a single stroke."
Many students from the Seven Stars Sword Clan did not practice ’sword craft’ before joining the Seven Stars Sword Clan, they only did so upon joining.
Wyatt was aware of that, too.
Chaim chuckled, "The martial arts technique I used to practice has similarities with the ’Heavenly Net Sword Technique’. So, it seems natural to practice this. Haven’t you reached the ’major accomplishment realm’ with your ’Flowing Wind Sword’?"
"I’ve just reached the major accomplishment realm, to breakthrough to the ’perfect realm’ would take at least another year."
Leah sighed.
