Chapter 953: Chapter 953: Seventh-Order Emperor Realm Earth Mystique Fragment

Whoosh!

The young man in blue moved quickly. As he fled, four hundred ancient Horned Dragon phantoms emerged above the void, rushing forth as swift as the wind.

A warrior of the Transforming Void Realm at the First level!

Realized the "First Layer of Transforming Realm"!

"Did he come from another entrance?"

Wyatt Barnes’s eyes turned cold as he rapidly chased after him, quickly surpassing a group of earth-yellow puppets, and easily caught up to not far behind the young man in blue.

Like a whirlwind!

With another move, Wyatt caught up with the young man in blue. His hand shook the ’Emperor Grade Spirit Sword.’ transforming it into a streak of lightning that flashed by, the sound of the sword ringing out momentarily like the blooming of an evening flower.

"Cough..."

The young man in blue hadn’t even reacted before a clear sword mark appeared on his throat. As he coughed, the sword mark blossomed, and bright, dazzling blood sprayed out.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

...

Following this, the young man in blue fell to the ground along with the box that held the treasures, sliding along the ground due to inertia. His body scraped the ground and flew out for several tens of meters before finally stopping.

Meanwhile, the exquisite box also fell to the ground and ’snap’ opened.

A fragment emanating deep earth-yellow energy appeared in front of Wyatt Barnes.

"The... Earth Mystique fragment?!"

Seeing the fragment, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but narrow his pupils, and immediately, with a look of urgency, he raised his hand to attract the fragment from the exquisite box into his own hand with Origin Force.

"Bad news!"

Almost at the moment he grasped the fragment, Wyatt Barnes’s extended spiritual force sensed a familiar aura on the box— the aura of an Inscription array.

"Congratulations, young man... This ’Emperor Grade Earth Mystique Fragment of the Seventh-Order’, is yours."

The voice of that Martial Emperor came from inside the exquisite box, the sound traveling far and wide, mixed with an extremely terrifying penetrating force.

"It’s an improved ’Sound Gathering Array’!"

Wyatt Barnes’s brow furrowed.

A Sound Gathering Array, even when activated, would only spread the sound within a hundred meters radius.

However, the improved ’Sound Gathering Array’ possessed an extremely terrifying penetrating force that could spread sound to an area with a radius of ten thousand meters in a short amount of time, reaching the ears of everyone within that area.

"It must have been that Martial Emperor who did this on purpose."

This, Wyatt Barnes could be sure of.

As for the purpose, it was simply to not make it too easy for whoever obtained the treasure.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

...

At some unknown time, the remaining several dozens of earth-yellow puppets caught up and surrounded Wyatt Barnes, their stone fists breaking through the air, smashing toward Wyatt.

"Hmph!"

With a cold expression, Wyatt Barnes shook his Emperor Grade spirit sword in his hand, displaying the ’Nine Dragons Inch Flash’ and ’Sword Drawing Technique’, instantly destroying nearly half of the puppets.

"Kill!"

As killing intent rose in Wyatt’s eyes, the remaining puppets, without exception, all died by his hand.

When all the puppets had fallen, Wyatt Barnes’s eyebrows raised as if he sensed something.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three figures, from three different directions, sprinted towards him and soon arrived not far from Wyatt Barnes, each halting their steps and revealing their true faces.

These were three young men who looked at each other before fixing their gazes on Wyatt Barnes.

"Emperor Grade Earth Mystique Fragment of the Seventh-Order!"

Three pairs of eyes shot out intense and greedy looks, converging on Wyatt Barnes.

The debris of the puppets turned to stone and was completely ignored by them.

As for the dead body of the young man in blue, completely crushed under the stones, they didn’t notice it either.

"Hand over the ’Mystique Fragment’ you got... or die!"

Among the three young men, the one whose face always carried a cold harshness glanced at Wyatt Barnes and coolly said.

The other two young men, although silent, were also glaring greedily at the fragment in Wyatt’s hand that flashed with earth-yellow energy.

They knew—it was the ’Emperor Grade Earth Mystique Fragment of the Seventh-Order’!

Just now, that voice of the Martial Emperor had reached them from far away, entering their ears.

They had rushed over following the sound at the first opportunity.

"None of you came in with me."

Wyatt Barnes glanced around at the three young men who had surrounded him and immediately discovered that none of them had entered from entrance number two with him.

"Which entrance did you come through?"

Wyatt Barnes’s eyes flashed as he directly asked.

"Number one!"

The eternally cold-faced young man said.

"Entrance number one?"

Wyatt Barnes realized, and then asked, "Are you also from the Northern Desert?"

"You’re from the Northern Desert too?"

Hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, another young man raised his eyebrows and asked in a condescending tone, not mincing his words.

Despite such a tone, Wyatt Barnes simply chose to ignore it.

Now, he had confirmed their origins from their words.

"You all want this ’Mystique Fragment’?"

Wyatt Barnes weighed the fragment in his hand and asked in a calm tone.

"Nonsense!"

The young man who had just questioned Wyatt Barnes retorted matter-of-factly.

"But there are three of you... to whom should I give this mystique fragment?"

Wyatt Barnes glanced at the three men with interest and inquired.

"It doesn’t matter to whom; you just need to hand it over first!"

The young man with a stern face said, his tone filled with certainty.

"Then to whom should I deliver it?"

Wyatt Barnes asked again.

"Give it to me!"

The young man who had questioned Wyatt Barnes spoke up.

"I have no objections."

The young man who hadn’t spoken yet also said.

"The minority submits to the majority."

The previous young man looked at the one with the stern face and said with a smile.

"Hmph! Don’t think I don’t know you are all ’Emerging Cloud Sect disciples’... The ’Emerging Cloud Movement Technique’ you used when you arrived already revealed your identities."

The stern-faced young man said disdainfully.

"So... are you from the North Nether Sect?"

The two young men who were playing off each other turned their gaze to the stern-faced young man and asked solemnly.

"Correct."

The latter nodded, not denying it.

"When people from our ’Emerging Cloud Sect’ and the ’Impermanence Sect’ entered, none from your ’North Nether Sect’ were seen... It’s unexpected that you managed to arrive just in time."

The unpolished Emerging Cloud Sect disciple sneered.

"Emerging Cloud Sect! Impermanence Sect! North Nether Sect!"

After hearing the conversation between the two young men, Wyatt Barnes’s pupils shrank.

Before he left the Five Elements Sect, he hadn’t heard of these three sects.

However, during the one month he traveled toward the southwest of the Northern Desert to reach the secret ’entrance’ of the Martial Emperor, he learned quite a bit about ’Land of the Northern Desert’ from Brady Yellow and Noel Walton’s discussions.

In the Land of the Northern Desert, aside from the eastern, southern, and western areas being held in esteem by a collection of ’Third-Rate Powers,’

at the center of the Northern Desert and to its north were three powerful ’Second Tier Powers,’ sects that had been in existence for thousands of years.

Center area of the Northern Desert, Emerging Cloud Sect.

Northern area beyond the Northern Desert, North Nether Sect.

Besides these two sects, there is another sect located at the border of the central area of the Northern Desert and the northern area, the Impermanence Sect.

"They are disciples of the Emerging Cloud Sect and the North Nether Sect?"

Wyatt Barnes took a deep breath, somewhat enlightened, "No wonder they are so powerful... Turns out they are young elites from the ’Second Tier Powers’!"

"Senior Brother Adams, why waste words with him... Let’s kill him first and then go snatch the ’mystique fragment’ from that kid!"

Another Emerging Cloud Sect disciple suggested.

"Agreed!"

The one called ’Senior Brother Adams’ from the Emerging Cloud Sect, his eyes lighting up, immediately leapt into action, rushing toward the stern-faced disciple of the North Nether Sect.

The other Emerging Cloud Sect disciple quickly followed.

Whew!

Hum!

The two men, one with a sword and the other with a blade, attacked forcefully from both sides aiming for the North Nether Sect disciple who stood in the distance, seemingly frozen in fear.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Above their heads in the void, over five hundred ancient Horned Dragon illusions appeared, displaying their full strength.

Both were ’Transforming Void Realm First Level warriors,’ their Origin Force exploding, comparable to the strength of two hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

Both wielded ’Second Grade spirit weapons,’ able to amplify their strength based on their Origin Force by ’seventy to eighty percent,’ nearing the strength of an additional one hundred and fifty ancient Horned Dragons.

Additionally, both had comprehended the ’First Level Transforming Void Realm,’ which, once executed, matched the strength of two hundred ancient Horned Dragons.

Together, that amounted to the force of over five hundred fifty ancient Horned Dragons!

"So it turns out... the blue-robed young man earlier, who clumsily tried to take the ’Seventh-Order Emperor Grade Earth Mystique Fragment’ from behind, might also be from the Emerging Cloud Sect, the North Nether Sect, or the Impermanence Sect?"

Wyatt Barnes, momentarily overlooked by the two Emerging Cloud Sect disciples and one North Nether Sect disciple, couldn’t help but recall the blue-robed young man he had killed with a single sword strike.

The opponent was also a ’Transforming Void Realm First Level warrior,’ had comprehended the ’First Level Transforming Void Realm,’ and had not entered through the same Number 2 entrance as him.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

...

Just then, the sound of clashing metal rang in his ears, a gust of wild wind hitting his face, snapping Wyatt Barnes back to reality.

He saw the North Nether Sect disciple facing the coordinated attack of the two Emerging Cloud Sect disciples unflinchingly, effortlessly parrying their attacks with a pair of iron fists.

Of course, the North Nether Sect disciple was not bare-handed; he utilized a ’Second Grade spirit weapon gauntlet’ on his hands, easily countering the spirit blade and spirit sword of his opponents.

Seeing this scene, Wyatt Barnes’s expression remained unchanged, seemingly not surprised at all.

Whoosh!

Above the head of the North Nether Sect disciple, the number of ancient Horned Dragon illusions soared again, climbing to over eight hundred thirty, ferociously lunging at the two Emerging Cloud Sect disciples.

"Transforming Void Realm Second Layer, comprehended the ’Second Layer Transforming Void Realm’... I wonder if this North Nether Sect disciple is the ’number one’ among the young generation of the North Nether Sect today."

Wyatt Barnes muttered, "If not... how strong must the ’number one’ of the current young generation of the North Nether Sect be?"
