Chapter 939: Chapter 939: The Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure Opens!
Having set up the "Inscription Array," he arranged for his "hidden treasure" to be opened a thousand years later.
What kind of formidable method was this?
Apart from Wyatt Barnes and the high-ranking members of various major powers who had already learned of all this through other means, everyone else was visibly shocked, their eyes filled with disbelief.
The strength of a Martial Emperor was beyond their imagination!
Even the always quiet Flame Graham, who stood behind Magnus Patel without the slightest presence, was now slightly moved.
"This Flame Graham... seems somewhat different from last time."
Just now, when the people from Heartbreak Sect had just arrived, Wyatt had glanced at Flame Graham casually and hadn’t paid much attention, so he hadn’t noticed the subtle changes in Flame Graham.
But now, taking a closer look, he noticed something immediately.
The current Flame Graham, compared to a few months ago, seemed to possess an indescribable and peculiar aura.
Wyatt realized that something might have happened to Flame Graham in the recent months.
Out of curiosity, Wyatt extended his spiritual power toward Flame Graham and instantly probed his cultivation, discovering it to be at the Seventh-Order of the Cave Void Realm.
A few months ago, Flame Graham’s cultivation was at the Sixth-Order of the Cave Void Realm, so his breakthrough to the Seventh-Order of the Cave Void Realm didn’t surprise Wyatt at all.
After all, Flame Graham was different from him.
Flame Graham had long left the Great Turdo Dynasty and come to the Northern Desert outside the territory, joining the Heartbreak Sect, and taking Magnus Patel as his master.
In Flame Graham’s cultivation process, he certainly lacked no specialty spiritual fruits for martial artists at the Cave Void Realm.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to possess the cultivation of the Sixth-Order of the Cave Void Realm a few months ago.
Having consumed a large number of specialty spiritual fruits for martial artists at the Cave Void Realm meant that, unless Flame Graham later got his hands on spiritual fruits that he had never consumed before,
he would find it difficult to further improve his cultivation through the power of such fruits.
"Could it be that I sensed it wrong?"
Wyatt frowned, but then his expression relaxed again.
When he sensed that indescribable peculiar aura from Flame Graham, he also felt a trace of danger.
As though Flame Graham could pose a threat to him.
When he probed Flame Graham’s current cultivation with his spiritual power, his first thought was that his own sensation was mistaken.
Flame Graham at the Seventh-Order of the Cave Void Realm couldn’t possibly be a threat to him.
After all, not everyone is Winnie Romero.
"Hm? Why hasn’t the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure’ opened yet?"
Half an hour later, Earth Peak’s Peak Master, Frank Field, lightly furrowed his brows and spoke with some confusion.
Almost at the very moment Field’s voice fell, on the exterior of the grand gate embedded in the ground, a layer of clearly visible, semi-transparent light shield appeared, enveloping the entire gate.
Whoosh!
Seeing this suddenly appearing semi-transparent light shield, everyone present couldn’t help but be astounded.
"Is this the ’Inscription Array’?"
"It should be."
...
Young disciples from the six major powers discussed spiritedly, their eyes filled with curiosity as they observed the semi-transparent light shield.
A lay disciple from Cloud Sky Temple even flew forward in curiosity, reaching out to touch the semi-transparent light shield, as if wanting to test its texture.
This disciple from Cloud Sky Temple was very quick, so much so that others couldn’t react in time.
When Wyatt was the first to react, the Cloud Sky Temple lay disciple had already touched the semi-transparent light shield, even sticking his hand into it.
Wyatt shook his head.
He knew that this Cloud Sky Temple disciple was done for.
At this moment, Wyatt could clearly sense that one of the other three killing arrays suddenly stirred, evidently being activated.
"Stop!"
The high-ranking officials from the six major powers reacted one by one, and Void, the abbot of Cloud Sky Temple, changed his expression and shouted in alarm, losing his previously composed demeanor.
Void’s shout startled many of the young disciples from various powers, causing them to shiver uncontrollably.
"Abbot, this light shield can..."
Hearing Void’s alarmed shout, the Cloud Sky Temple lay disciple, with one hand through the light shield and apparently oblivious to the danger, looked at Void as if to take credit for his action.
As if he wanted to say to Void:
Abbot, I’ve tried it, this light shield can be passed through!
But before he could finish his words, the valley suddenly shook violently, as if an enormous earthquake had struck, interrupting him.
The face of the Cloud Sky Temple lay disciple changed, realizing at this moment, even if he was dull, that he had caused a disaster.
Without any hesitation, he quickly withdrew his hand from the semi-transparent light shield.
Alas, it was all too late.
The lay disciples of Cloud Sky Temple didn’t even see any force appear before one of their bodies suddenly stiffened, then exploded with a ’bang,’ turning into a shower of blood that filled the sky.
It was only because nearby people retreated in time that they were spared from being drenched in blood.
Even so, the young disciples from various major powers couldn’t help but draw in a sharp breath. When they looked again at the semi-transparent barrier enveloping the gate, their eyes were filled with added wariness and fear.
"All disciples of Cloud Sky Temple, heed my command! Unless this light barrier dissipates on its own... no one is to approach it."
Void’s face looked somewhat unpleasant as he cautioned the other disciples of Cloud Sky Temple.
The high-ranking members of the other five major powers, including the Five Elements Sect, also warned their subordinates.
The young disciples from each power nodded without any hesitation.
Even without the warnings, they wouldn’t dare to approach that semi-transparent light barrier. In their eyes, it was no different from a flood or a ferocious beast.
The lay disciple of Cloud Sky Temple had exploded into nothing upon touching that semi-transparent barrier.
The lesson of this precedent instilled a deep-seated fear in them.
"Brother Barnes, is that the power of a ’killing formation’?"
Winnie Romero’s voice, condensed with Origin Force, reached Wyatt Barnes’s ear, unmistakably tinged with a trace of fear.
"Yes."
Wyatt Barnes nodded in response, "And that was just the power of the first of the three killing formations... My spiritual power can sense that the other two more powerful formations have not even been activated."
"More powerful formations? How strong?"
Winnie Romero was frightened by Wyatt Barnes’s words.
"It’s hard to describe precisely how strong they are... But let me put it this way, once the third and lowest formation is triggered, even a ’Ninth-Order Martial Emperor Realm powerhouse’ might meet the same fate as that lay disciple of Cloud Sky Temple just did."
Wyatt Barnes paused for a moment before responding to Winnie Romero with a heavy tone.
A third killing formation that could instantly kill a ’Ninth-Order Martial Emperor Realm’ expert?!
Winnie Romero’s face paled considerably.
In her eyes, those in the Martial Emperor Realm were extremely strong.
Even the Blade and Sword Sect made a huge effort for the ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure,’ aiming to obtain ’fragments of profound mysteries’ and birth a Martial Emperor Realm powerhouse in their sect.
But the freshly advanced Martial Emperor Realm expert was merely at the ’First level’.
Such an existence, in front of a ’Ninth-Order Martial Emperor Realm’ expert, was like an ant, insignificant!
Yet the killing formation at the entrance to the ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’ could even instantly kill a ’Ninth-Order Martial Emperor Realm’ expert, not to mention the group present who had not even stepped into the ’Emperor Realm’.
Following the death of the lay disciple of Cloud Sky Temple, silence returned to the spacious valley. But soon, another loud rumble spread throughout the area.
Many people shuddered reflexively in fright.
BOOM!!!
Under the gaze of all, the gate covered by the semi-transparent light barrier slowly opened, revealing its true face underneath.
At the base of the gate, a platform emerged before everyone’s eyes.
One side of the platform featured an endless stone staircase leading down into the depths of the earth – a pitch-dark abyss when viewed from above.
As for the other three sides, all that met the eye was a deep, boundless expanse, resembling a bottomless abyss.
"Air Restriction Array?"
While most people’s attention was on the platform and staircase, Wyatt Barnes, through his spiritual power that had extended through the five Inscription formations, clearly sensed the presence of an Inscription Array around the platform.
It was indeed an ’Air Restriction Array.’
The Air Restriction Array was a type of formation in which warriors above the Void Realm were unable to fly once they entered, unless their strength could break the shackles of the Inscription Array.
Otherwise, within the Air Restriction Array, one could only honestly walk on the ground.
"This ’Air Restriction Array’ must also be left behind by that Martial Emperor... As such, even ’Ninth-Order Martial Emperor Realm’ experts could only walk honestly on the ground once inside," Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.
Although there were quite a few ’Inscription Masters’ among the high-rankings of the six major powers present, who could more or less sense the presence of the Air Restriction Array, they could not identify what kind of Inscription Array it was.
After all, they were different from Wyatt Barnes, who possessed the memories of a lifetime’s study of Inscriptions by the Reincarnating Martial Emperor.
The Reincarnating Martial Emperor had gone through two lives. In his second life, he took his study of Inscription Arrays to the pinnacle, not only creating many Inscriptions and Inscription Arrays but also understanding all the common Inscriptions and Inscription Arrays on the Cloud Skies Continent.
Of course, there were some more obscure Inscriptions and Inscription Arrays that the Reincarnating Martial Emperor had only heard of and did not know the specific engraving and arrangement.
Just like when Wyatt Barnes was in the ’Sword Emperor’s Treasure Trove’ and obtained the ’Splitting and Merging Inscription Array,’ which allowed the spirit sword to temporarily split into nine or merge into one, the Reincarnating Martial Emperor did not know how to engrave or arrange it.
"With my current ’Second Layer Transforming Void Realm’ spiritual power... I wonder how many swords I can control if I practice the Nine Tribulations Sword Handling Art?"
As Wyatt Barnes thought of the ’Sword Emperor’s Treasure Trove,’ a notion sparked within him.
It was then he recalled that, along with the near Emperor-grade spirit sword and three fragments of profound mysteries obtained there, he had also acquired a set of sword techniques left behind by a white-robed Sword Emperor.
The Nine Tribulations Sword Handling Art!
Practicing the Nine Tribulations Sword Handling Art required strong spiritual power to simultaneously control nine swords in flight, executing them perfectly.
