Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 973: Heading to the ’Central Area

Chapter 973: Chapter 973: Heading to the ’Central Area

"The residual soul hidden within Marshall Tyler’s body...is very likely from the ’Demon Sealing Monument’! After all, he once possessed a fragment of the ’Demon Sealing Monument.’"

"What’s most important is...the soul fragment within Marshall Tyler, which resembles that of a Martial Emperor, seems to recognize the ’Demon Sealing Monument’! He probably knows the details of the Demon Sealing Monument."

"Thus, he must be well aware of the value of the Demon Sealing Monument...which means, Marshall Tyler couldn’t possibly have betrayed me like that! Otherwise, once I were to be killed by someone else, the Demon Sealing Monument would fall into others’ hands."

In a moment, Wyatt Barnes thought of many things.

Firstly, he could be sure of one thing.

Marshall Tyler knew the value of the ’Demon Sealing Monument’.

Originally, when he was being pursued by the four Vice Fort Masters of Grimm Wolf Fortress, it was Marshall Tyler who manipulated the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ from behind the scenes.

"Perhaps, Marshall Tyler wanted the people of Grimm Wolf Fortress to obtain the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ first, and then he had planned to take it back later... With the help of that soul resembling a Martial Emperor, possessing after strength surpassing Grimm Wolf Fortress was not difficult!"

"But inside this ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure,’ it’s a different story! Once he spreads the news of me obtaining the ’Mystic Fragment’ and traps me... whoever kills me, he wouldn’t necessarily know, let alone take back the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ from those who kill me."

Thinking this, Wyatt Barnes confirmed his conclusion.

The person who betrayed him was not Marshall Tyler!

As long as Marshall Tyler was interested in the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ in his possession, he definitely wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.

"But if it’s not Marshall Tyler, who could it be?"

While swiftly moving, Wyatt Barnes furrowed his brows, struggling to figure out who was behind his betrayal.

"Could it be those two disciples from the Sun and Moon Sect?"

Soon, Wyatt Barnes thought of the only two surviving disciples of the Sun and Moon Sect, who undoubtedly had the greatest motive.

After all, the other eighteen disciples of the Sun and Moon Sect had died by his hand.

If those two wanted to avenge those eighteen, they indeed had a motive to do so.

"Besides them, the people from Heartbreak Sect also have a motive."

Initially, when he first entered the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure,’ he had not only killed nineteen disciples from Grimm Wolf Fortress and seventeen from the Sun and Moon Sect but also twelve from Heartbreak Sect.

"Among the remaining disciples of Heartbreak Sect, perhaps someone wants to avenge the deceased disciples!"

Wyatt Barnes mused to himself.

Soon, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

"And there’s that disciple from Blade and Sword Sect, Tobias Morin... before entering the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure,’ due to my reason, Winnie crippled one of his arms! Although he managed to reattach his severed limb later, he definitely harbors hatred against me."

Wyatt Barnes’s mind stirred, and he continued to ponder the suspects.

He realized that, upon further thought, whether it was disciples from Blade and Sword Sect, Cloud Sky Temple, or even from Five Elements Sect, it seemed they could all possibly betray him.

"This is really giving me a headache."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head, not wanting to think further, but his eyes revealed a chill, "No matter who it is, daring to stab me in the back... once I drag you out, I will make sure you have no place for your corpse!"

Wyatt Barnes sped up, dashing through the caves like the wind.

Along the way, Wyatt Barnes heard many of the surviving young powerhouses discussing him, all talking about his acquisition of the ’Mystic Fragment.’

After spending half a month’s time, Wyatt Barnes finally confirmed the direction of the central area of the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure’ and started heading towards the central area.

"Finally confirmed the direction... The ’Palace’ left by that Martial Emperor powerhouse is over there!"

Wyatt Barnes’s speed towards the central area of the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure’ soared to the extreme, leaving only a purple lightning-like figure to those young powerhouses along the way.

"His speed is so fast!"

"Yes, I can’t even catch a trace of him."

"With such speed... his strength is probably at least in the ’Transforming Void Realm Fourfold’ and above!"

...

Watching that fleeting purple figure, the young powerhouses along the way couldn’t help but sigh and feel inferior.

As Wyatt Barnes was making his way to the central region of the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure,’ plenty of young powerhouses in various parts of the treasure had also figured out the direction of the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure’ and began moving toward the central area.

"Elder Brother Ling Tian, did you manage to obtain a ’Mystic Fragment’?"

Two swiftly moving figures heading towards the central area of the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure,’ one of them couldn’t help but express surprise upon hearing the discussions from the young powerhouses they encountered on the road.

"Rey Jones, do you know that ’Wyatt Barnes’?"

The other person, being ’Ledger Leigh’ from Emerging Cloud Sect, was the second strongest of the young generation.

As for the former, it was ’Rey Jones,’ the second strongest of the young generation of the Impermanence Sect.

"I know him. He’s a friend of mine... But I never imagined that he would have the strength to obtain a ’Mystic Fragment.’"

Rey Jones nodded and as he spoke, a look of surprise inevitably appeared on his face.

He couldn’t believe that the young man he had met once before had such incredible strength!

As someone who had obtained a ’Mystic Fragment’ from the periphery of the Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure, he very much understood that acquiring a ’Mystic Fragment’ required not only luck but also sufficient strength.

Otherwise, the ’puppets’ guarding the Mystic Fragments would suffice to cause a headache.

Apart from puppets, the container holding the Mystic Fragments emitted a sound with strong penetrating power, attracting nearby people to rush over quickly.

If one couldn’t fend off the people who came after, the ’Mystic Fragment’ would simply change hands.

So, to obtain the ’Mystic Fragment’, luck is secondary; strength is what matters most.

"If I encounter him, I’ll snatch the ’Mystic Fragment’ from his hands... You wouldn’t intervene, would you?"

With a flash in his eyes, Ledger Leigh asked in a deep voice.

"If I encounter him, I will ask which type of ’Mystic Fragment’ he has obtained... If it’s the one needed by our Impermanence Sect, I’ll exchange the one I have with him."

Rey Jones spoke indifferently, not answering Ledger Leigh’s question directly.

Upon hearing this, Ledger Leigh’s eyes brightened.

The ’Mystic Fragment’ in Rey Jones’s possession was undoubtedly what he desperately wanted to obtain.

That ’Mystic Fragment’, in the hands of Rey Jones, was unattainable for him.

But once it fell into the hands of a disciple from that third-rate power, the Five Elements Sect, wouldn’t it be easy for him to snatch it away?

A young disciple of a third-rate power, even if he were the foremost among the contemporary young generation of that power, could he not defeat him, the second-ranked of the contemporary young generation from the second-rate Emerging Cloud Sect?

Leigh was brimming with confidence in his own abilities.

"Now, I just hope that the ’Mystic Fragment’ that Wyatt Barnes has is needed by the Impermanence Sect... Even if it’s not, I’ll still snatch the one he has!"

A cold light flashed in Leigh’s eyes as he muttered to himself, "A lowly ant from a third-rate power... doesn’t deserve to have a ’Mystic Fragment’!"

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Rey Jones and Ledger Leigh moved swiftly, heading towards the central area of the Martial Emperor’s secret treasury.

At the same time, quite a few others were also heading towards the central region.

Swoosh!

A fiery red figure filled with scorching breath flashed past one cave after another with such speed that made many young powerhouses along the way feel ashamed.

"Brother Barnes should also be heading to the central area now, right?"

The figure that flew out was a woman in red, moving as if a sprite of fire dancing gracefully.

The woman’s beauty could topple cities and captivate all beings; she appeared to be just over twenty, her brows mixed with anticipation as she traveled.

In her mind, the image of a young man in purple clothes appeared, causing her cheeks to flush and making her appear irresistibly adorable.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

On another side of the Martial Emperor’s secret treasury, two figures flew side by side with extreme speed.

They were a young man in red and another in blue, both identical in appearance, clearly twin brothers.

However, their expressions were worlds apart.

The young man in red had a face full of changing expressions, while the one in blue was extremely stern, his expression unchanging from start to finish.

"Wyatt Barnes got a ’Mystic Fragment’?"

A look of surprise appeared on the face of the man in red, "It seems his luck is not worse than ours."

The man in blue raised his eyebrows, not saying much.

"The ’Mystic Array’ we found in this Martial Emperor’s treasury is much stronger than the one we experienced in the Sect before... Just the enhancement we gained in understanding the ’realm’ shows the substantial amount and high grade of ’realm fragments’ integrated into that Mystic Array," said the man in red in awe.

These twin brothers were none other than the two from the Five Elements Sect, the Nangle brothers.

The one with the stern face in blue was naturally ’Jaxx Nangle’.

As for the extravagant man in red, that was ’Demetrius Nangle’.

One calm, the other active.

After entering the ’Martial Emperor’s treasury’, apart from each obtaining a ’Grade One Spiritual Instrument’, they also entered a self-activating ’Mystic Array’.

In the ’Mystic Array’, after enduring three hours, their ’realm’ received a great boost.

This boost, compared to the one they experienced within the Mystic Array of the Five Elements Sect, was like night and day.

The Five Elements Sect’s ’Mystic Array’ was nothing compared to the one in this Martial Emperor’s treasury.

"It’s a pity that the ’Mystic Array’ can only be activated once... Otherwise, another session might have brought our ’realm’ to the ’Ninth Advanced Level,’" Demetrius sighed sadly.

"Greedy!"

Jaxx coolly uttered these two words.

"Don’t you wish for that?"

Demetrius shot Jaxx a scornful look, "Still, speaking of which, our adventures have been better than Wyatt Barnes’... Although he obtained a ’Mystic Fragment’, he has to hand it over to the Sect."

"It is hard for him to survive," Jaxx said sparingly.

"Yes... We didn’t expect that those entering the ’Martial Emperor’s treasury’ from other entrances would be people from those three second-rate powers."

Demetrius nodded, his face wary.
