Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 437: Mental Attack

Chapter 437: Chapter 437: Mental Attack

This was a completely sealed ’cave dwelling’ with only one waterway leading to it.

The furnishings in the cave were simple: just a stone table, a stone stool, and a stone bed.

"Huh~~"

Wyatt came to the front of the stone table, blew a breath, and dust filled the air, "It seems, no one has come here for a long time."

Thinking of his purpose of coming here, Wyatt’s spiritual power extended out.

At last, behind the stone bed, he felt a strong tinge of spirituality.

"What could it be?"

Driven by curiosity, Wyatt Barnes went to check it out.

Crossing the stone bed, Wyatt saw a gap in the ground. Within the gap, a faintly green plant stubbornly grew there, and on the plant, a crystal clear and faintly green ’spiritual fruit’ was hanging.

"This is..."

Wyatt’s pupils contracted slightly.

His guess turned out to be correct.

The spiritual power of the Spirit Cleansing Pool, just like the encounter of the Martial Emperor back in the day, was released by a spiritual fruit and integrated into the water.

Now, being close to the spiritual fruit, Wyatt could only feel his soul vibrating slightly.

The next moment-

Wyatt felt his mind go blank, and at that instant, it was as if something in his soul had split.

"My spiritual power... has changed!"

At that moment, Wyatt joyfully discovered that his spiritual power, which had been stuck at a bottleneck, had broken through all barriers and successfully reached the ’Peep Naught Realm’!

Finally, he had a breakthrough!

"It’s all thanks to it."

Wyatt’s scorching gaze was fixed on the spiritual fruit. At the same time, he was searching through the memories of the Martial Emperor...

He couldn’t recognise what type of spiritual fruit this was.

Finally, in the lifelong memories of the Martial Emperor, Wyatt found the answer.

"Ghostly Spirits Fruit!"

Wyatt’s heartbeat suddenly quickened.

The Ghostly Spirits Fruit, like the ’Soul Molting Fruit’, is a type of spiritual fruit that enhances the soul and improves the level of spiritual power.

In terms of medicinal power, it was vastly superior to the Soul Molting Fruit!

"I really didn’t expect my luck to be this good... although i didn’t get the Soul Molting Fruit, I got this superior Ghostly Spirits Fruit."

Wyatt’s breathing became ragged.

Then, Wyatt began to carefully observe the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit’...

Soon, he discovered a problem.

"This Ghostly Spirits Fruit, it doesn’t seem to be ripe yet."

Wyatt was stunned, looking at the hint of green on the surface of the Ghostly Spirits Fruit, a bitter smile unknowingly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"But, it should be soon... with this little bit of green, this Ghostly Spirits Fruit, at most three days, should be fully ripe."

Wyatt’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he was beginning to feel a bit excited.

"Three days... I won’t head out then."

Wyatt thought to himself.

In his opinion, three days would pass in the blink of an eye.

Taoi Romero and the others along with Little Gold were aware of his strength, and they knew there was absolutely no danger for him in the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool’.

As for the Inscription Formation, he could open it with his spiritual power.

Wyatt raised his hand and swept away the dust on the stone bed, sitting cross-legged, he began to practice.

’Nine Dragons War Sovereign’, Wind Flood Dragon Variation!

Completely immersed in his practice, Wyatt quickly entered the state.

Wyatt discovered that after the transformation of his soul, his practice speed seemed to have increased somewhat from before.

"It seems that even with maximum talent, a strong soul is required to a certain extent to explore."

Wyatt gradually calmed his mind and continued practice.

A day’s time quickly passed.

Within the vast valley, after the parting clouds, figures came flying out. These were the young talents from various cities entering the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool’.

Soon, the twenty-nine people came out one after another.

"Where’s Brother Barnes?"

Winnie’s beautiful face under her veil changed slightly, her autumn water-like beautiful eyes mixed with a hint of worry.

"Miss, don’t worry. With Brother Barnes’s skills, he is absolutely safe."

An old man in grey robes standing by the side shook his head and smiled, his words were filled with confidence in Wyatt.

"City Lord Romero, we will take our leave now!"

The City Lords of the twenty-nine cities, leading their young talents, successively bid farewell to Taoi Romero.

Taoi Romero nodded faintly, his gaze always staying on the parted cloud, the entrance and exit of the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool’, as if waiting for something, he didn’t even bother to look at the City Lords of the twenty-nine cities.

None of the City Lords of twenty-nine cities dared to express any dissatisfaction, each called a Demon Beast flying creature and flew away.

For a while, in the spacious valley, only Taoi Romero, two others, and Little Gold were left.

"Why hasn’t Brother Barnes come out yet? The ’Inscription Formation’ of this Spirit Cleansing Pool is about to close."

The old man looked at the gathering cloud in front of him and frowned.

"Squeak~~"

At this moment, Little Gold, who had been in Winnie’s hand, squeaked and turned into a golden light, shooting into the not yet completely closed cloud, entering the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool’.

"Little Gold!"

Color drained from Winnie Romero’s face. Before Taoi Romero and the old man could react, she dashed off, her body akin to a ball of flame merging with the mist.

"Winnie!"

"Miss!"

The change in Taoi Romero’s and the old man’s countenances was palpable; without hesitation, they both bolted behind her.

At that moment, the mist converged, the entrance of the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool’ sealing up entirely. Only after three years would it reopen.

"Where’s Little Gold? Little Gold, Little Gold..."

Winnie Romero was familiar with the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool,’ having paid a visit three years prior. But now, standing by the lakeside outside it, her gorgeous face - concealed by a veil - was etched with worry.

"Little Gold, Little Gold!"

Winnie quickly discovered that after Little Gold entered, it disappeared without a trace.

She glanced at the Spirit Cleansing Pool, "Did Little Gold go inside?"

"I promised Brother Barnes that I’d take care of Little Gold..."

All of a sudden, as if striking upon something, Winnie’s eyes hardened. She dove into the Spirit Cleansing Pool.

It was then that Taoi Romero and the old man arrived, witnessing this scene and sharing a bitter smile.

Yet, they were not worried. The Spirit Cleansing Pool was not that large and didn’t present any dangerous threats.

In particular, Elder Kane’s powerful spiritual energy seemed to stretch out effortlessly, enabling him to accurately gauge Winnie’s location - ensuring her safety.

"Elder Kane, is there any way for us to leave?"

Taoi examined the grey mist surrounding the ’Spirit Cleansing Pool,’ his eyebrows faintly furrowed, he asked.

"I can’t break through this Inscription Matrix."

Elder Kane’s face was grave, for the Inscription Matrix was not something he had ever encountered before. "This Inscription Matrix is neither hard nor easy... after all, it’s the method of a ’Transforming Void Realm’ expert, far from something I can unravel. Perhaps Brother Barnes might have a solution."

"Can your spiritual energy locate Wyatt Barnes?"

Taoi asked.

"No, my spiritual energy can only stretch to the upper part of the Spirit Cleansing Pool... There’s no trace of Brother Barnes or the little golden rat. But Miss Winnie is about to move out of my spiritual energy’s reach, I better go look." The Elder was barely finished speaking before he shot into the Spirit Cleansing Pool.

Inside the caves.

Wyatt Barnes was meditating when he felt the time was right and opened his eyes.

A look of joy lit up his face and he reached to pluck the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit.’

Yet, when he looked at it, his face fell.

The entire plant was still there, but the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit’ was nowhere to be found. "Where’s the Ghostly Spirits Fruit? Who has taken it?"

Wyatt Barnes’s countenance darkened. His piercing gaze combed over the cave as he embarked on a search.

He was certain that someone had seized the Ghostly Spirits Fruit before he could.

"Hm?"

Quickly, Wyatt Barnes found the culprit.

On the other side of the stone bed, a small fluffy golden rat lay, deep in sleep.

On the corners of its mouth, a wisp of a dark green liquid lingered.

The green liquid was pervaded with a deep and profound spiritual power.

"Little Gold, you... you stole and ate my ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit’!"

At that very moment, Wyatt Barnes felt a mixture of emotions, hard to put into words.

The Ghostly Spirits Fruit could significantly improve his soul, boosting it to even rival the spirits of typical Enter Void Realm martial artists...

But now, all that was left was optical illusion, mirage.

The troublemaker was this newborn golden mouse.

"This little guy, isn’t he faking sleep? Didn’t I ask him to stay with Winnie? What’s he doing here?"

Wyatt Barnes, somewhat helpless, picked up Little Gold, only to find that it was indeed in deep sleep - more like a state of hibernation.

"It appears it is digesting the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit’."

Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.

If any other Demon Beast had stolen the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit,’ Wyatt Barnes would have been quick to dispose of them without hesitation.

But now, the one who stole the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit’ was Little Gold; Wyatt Barnes could only swallow his frustration.

"Fine, let’s just consider it as helping you out, little guy."

Quickly, Wyatt Barnes let it go - he didn’t dwell on it anymore. He figured that Little Gold would reap considerable benefits from eating the ’Ghostly Spirits Fruit.’

When Little Gold became stronger, it would be more of a help to him.

Reciprocity.

"It’s been three days. It’s time to leave."

Wyatt Barnes takes Little Gold with him, dives into the subaqueous tunnel, leaving the cave.

"This Little Gold could actually find this underwater passage... It really is something... It’s indeed worthy of being a descendant of the Blue-eyed Sky Rat."

While swimming through the underwater passage, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but marvel.

"According to the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, besides having brute force, the Blue-eyed Sky Rat eats proficient in soul attacks, and knows some mysterious ’soul techniques’... Human martial artists can only touch the true essence of the soul and encounter those elusive soul attacks once they achieve ’Martial Emperor’!"

"Soul attacks, commonly known on the continent of Cloud Skies as ’spiritual attacks’... Some talented Demon Beasts can use spiritual power to attack even before they become Demon Emperors, including the ’Blue-eyed Sky Rat’!"

Wyatt Barnes had a sudden realization.

Through the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, he understood just how terrifying spiritual attacks could be.

A single thought was capable of damaging, even shattering, someone’s soul.

What a domineering technique!
