Chapter 620: Chapter 620: The Real and Fake Wyatt Barnes

A Thousand Illusions!

A mysterious light flickered deep within Wyatt Barnes’s eyes, hurriedly deploying his Soul Technique...

Now, he was simply taking his chances in desperation.

With regards to whether his Soul Technique ’A Thousand Illusions’ could break open this illusionary dimension, he harboured no certainty.

In an instant, Wyatt constructed an illusionary dimension, enveloping himself.

The next moment.

The scene before Wyatt’s eyes shifted, and a boundless meadow appeared, blanketed with fresh, crispy grass.

A breeze bearing a scent of grass swept toward him, creating a serene ambience.

Suddenly.

Wyatt felt the ground beneath his feet rumble, akin to the tremors of an earthquake.

Immediately following, under his watchful gaze, the illusionary dimension constructed using the Soul Technique ’A Thousand Illusions’ shattered into pieces.

Along with it, the resplendent golden palace shattered into pieces.

The palace was the ’Wisdom Test’ left by the Martial Emperor, the fifth one to be precise.

"Congratulations on passing the fifth test... Defeat the ’Mirror Puppet’, pass the sixth, also the final challenge, and you will gain my inheritance and leave this place," echoed the voice of the Martial Emperor from all directions, clearly reaching Wyatt’s ears.

"That’s it, I’ve passed?"

Wyatt was taken aback.

Even now, he found it hard to believe.

Earlier, when he used the Soul Technique ’A Thousand Illusions’, he wasn’t certain he could break the Martial Emperor’s illusionary dimension.

This unexpected result was somewhat unforeseen.

"Mirror Puppet!"

Swiftly, Wyatt regained his composure, he took a deep breath, a hint of wariness emerging in his eyes.

Thus far, he had endured two power challenges.

The first power test was a massacre against a hundred Ghostly Shadow puppets, which he single-handedly destroyed.

The second power test was the Earth Puppet, a creature with formidable attack and defense capabilities. If he hadn’t realized the ’Ice Realm’ in time, there was no way he could have passed the test.

Judging from previous experiences, the power tests progressively became harder.

And now, he was about to face the third power test, the final test.

"This Mirror Puppet is stronger than the ’Earth Puppet,’ no doubt about it... but I do not know how formidable it will be."

Wyatt took a deep breath, mentally preparing himself.

Just then, Wyatt felt a chilling aura looming in front of him...

When he lifted his gaze, he was entirely dumbstruck.

Heavens!

What was he seeing?

A young man in purple clothing had materialized in front of Wyatt.

What appalled Wyatt was that this purple-clad youth was carved from the same mold as him, no difference irrespective of the minutest detail.

Be it appearance or height, there was no distinction.

What proved to be crucial was that the youth held a crude Sword Embryo in his hands...

This Sword Embryo was identical to Wyatt’s own ’Grade One Spirit Sword.’

"What’s happening?"

Wyatt was certain that there were no ’mirrors’ of any kind in front of him.

Moreover, his Grade One Spirit Sword was safely kept in his Storage Ring.

"His eyes..."

A shocked Wyatt, slightly lifting his head, set eyes on the pupils of the youth in purple who shared his appearance.

The eyes of the youth were void and lifeless. He appeared dazed, as though he possessed no soul.

"Is this... Mirror Inscription Array?"

An image of Martial Emperor’s memory flashed across Wyatt’s mind and he quickly found an answer.

A Mirror Inscription Array was an unfathomably intricate Inscription Array.

Typically, only Inscription masters at the Martial Emperor Realm and above could deploy it.

Being a formidable array, it can be dubbed as a ’human-slaying device.’

Anyone who stepped into the ’Mirror Inscription Array’ would encounter a ’Mirror Puppet’ identical to themselves, possessing all their capabilities.

"Apart from lacking a soul, incapable of utilising Soul Techniques, and being immune to Soul Techniques... this Mirror Puppet is a near perfect clone of me! Be it my abilities or innate combat intuition."

Wyatt couldn’t help gasping at the sight of the Mirror Puppet, "What’s most terrifying is, this Mirror Puppet will transform in response to my actions..."

"For example, when I faced the Earth Puppet earlier, I comprehended the ’Ice Realm’ in a rush and managed to destroy it!"

"However, if during my fight against my own ’Mirror Puppet’, I comprehend a higher Realm, the puppet’s Realm would also transform correspondingly... This is an opponent precisely mirroring my own strength."

"What’s most terrifying is that he lacks a soul, has no thoughts, and does not feel fear... In his world, there is only slaughter!"

Wyatt’s face was filled with apprehension.

Such an existence would at best fight him to a stalemate. Overpowering it would nearly be impossible.

"If I could choose... I would rather face ten Earth Puppets than confront my own ’Mirror Puppet.’"

Wyatt laughed bitterly.

Just then, Wyatt felt an intense aura rushing aggressively towards him from the front.

His Mirror Puppet had moved, initiating an attack against him.

Whoosh!

The mirror puppet moved, executing his most familiar high-level ground technique, Wind Rolls the Remaining Clouds, and quickly appeared in front of him.

Sword Drawing Technique!

The same Sword Drawing Technique, when performed by the mirror puppet, appeared seamlessly executed.

It’s like a flash of sword light, following along with his shadow.

Not only that, the sword light also contained Wyatt Barnes’ familiar ’Second Layer Wind Realm’, ’First Layer Thunder Realm’, and the ’early understanding of the power of the earth’.

The icy coldness that hit his face made Wyatt Barnes shudder uncontrollably.

Wind Rolls the Remaining Clouds!

Wyatt Barnes hastily retreated, the rapid sword light almost brushed past his cheek.

A faint white scratch appeared on his face.

The nerve-racking scene immediately sobered Wyatt Barnes.

Phew!

From nowhere, an ugly looking sword embryo appeared in Wyatt Barnes’ hands; it was the ’Grade One spirit sword’ that he obtained in the first trial.

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes and the mirror puppet looked exactly alike, like identical twins from top to toe...

The only difference being, the eyes of the mirror puppet were hollow and devoid of light.

Because the mirror puppet had no soul.

Sho!

The mirror puppet moved once again. Its spirit sword shot out a ’Wind Thunder Sword Glimmer’ made up of the wind realm and the thunder realm and flew towards Wyatt Barnes like an arrow from a strong bow.

It looked as if it wanted to pierce Wyatt Barnes’ body.

"Hmph!"

Wyatt Barnes snorted coldly, striding out boldly.

In an instant, the spirit sword in his hand pierced straight out, releasing an identical ’Wind Thunder Sword Glimmer’. It howled and collided with the sword light shot out by the mirror puppet.

Boom!

The sword lights collided and disappeared. A chilling whirlwind swept out, causing the purple robes on Wyatt Barnes and the mirror puppet to flutter loudly.

The Wind Thunder Sword Glimmer was a method Wyatt Barnes had derived from the ’Wind Thunder Finger’.

He used it optimally, and its power was impressive!

Unfortunately, at this point, Wyatt Barnes and the mirror puppet went head to head; they were evenly matched.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

In a moment, within the cave, two extremely fast shadows crossed each other time and again, leaving long sword glimmers.

Wyatt Barnes and the mirror puppet were engaged in a full-blown battle.

The original force, realm, and combat experience between the two were all equal...

All their methods were identical.

Time passed stealthily.

An hour passed, and neither Wyatt Barnes nor the mirror puppet was able to win, maintaining a deadlock.

Gradually, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but feel anxious.

"If this continues, then when will it end?"

Wyatt Barnes was irritated.

This resulted in his attacks being affected by his mood, and he fell slightly behind in the following exchanges.

"Damn it!"

Upon falling behind, Wyatt Barnes was met with the mirror puppet’s storm-like attack. The opponent seemed eager to defeat him in one go, or even kill him.

"This bastard, has no soul, so it will not get anxious like me... What’s more fearsome is, it possesses fighting instincts almost similar to mine. Once it finds even a little weakness in me, it won’t let go!"

Facing the mirror puppet’s storm-like attacks, Wyatt Barnes kept losing ground, and he couldn’t help but retreat, totally defeated.

The mirror puppet was like an emotionless, cold-blooded machine, giving its all for its goal, without fear.

"Am I, the original, going to lose to a mirror puppet?"

Wyatt Barnes’ face turned extremely grim.

Only those in a similar situation as Wyatt Barnes can understand his current state of mind.

Similar to others fighting their mirror puppets in the ’third level of the Sword Emperor’s treasury’...

The spacious cave was covered in a thick layer of solid ice.

And on top of this solid ice, two identical beautiful figures were constantly intercrossing...

Suddenly, the two separated, standing in the air, confronting each other.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

....

The crisp sound was continuously heard from the objects in their hands.

Upon closer inspection, it was a dainty ’bell’.

The sound of the bell seemed to have the ability to hook one’s soul, catching them off guard.

The two girls facing each other, who looked very similar and appeared to be fifteen or sixteen years old, were very pretty.

One could imagine that when they grew up, they would surely become stunning beauties that could bring down empires.

However, one of the girls was slightly odd.

She did not have the lively eyes of the other girl; all she had were eyes that were hollow and devoid of light. They looked just like they had no soul within.

"It’s driving me crazy!"

The girl with lively eyes complained, "This girl not only has the same strength as me, but also the same weapon. I would understand if that was the end of it, but her Ice Realm is exactly the same as mine!"

"This is the last trial... and there are only six trials in total. I’ve already failed one, do I really have to fail a second one?"
