Legend of Wyatt

From start to finish, the green-clad youth was indifferent to the death of his companion.

Even at the moment when the blue-clad youth fell, his expression remained unchanged, as if the one who died was not his companion, but an irrelevant person.

"The element of earth... interesting."

Moreover, judging from the green-clad youth’s words, it was clear he noticed Wyatt Barnes had grasped the fundamental essence of the Earth-attribute Law, ’Earth Element’.

Not only that, upon seeing Wyatt Barnes comprehend the Earth Element, he remained calm and self-assured.

Seeing this, Wyatt’s expression turned slightly solemn.

The green-clad youth before him, being so unconcerned at this moment, suggested only two possibilities... The first possibility was that he was bluffing; the second possibility was that he had also grasped an essence of a Law Rule.

And Wyatt felt that the second possibility was more likely.

Suddenly.

The green-clad youth’s gaze towards Wyatt Barnes suddenly became sharp, and the Immortal Origin within him erupted outward.

As the Immortal Origin erupted, it transformed into a swirling green energy enveloping his body, lifting him up entirely.

At this moment, the green-clad youth rose into the air, not through ordinary flight, but being lifted purely by the green energy.

"The element of wind!"

Seeing the green energy swirling around the green-clad youth, Wyatt Barnes had a look of sudden realization; this person had indeed grasped an essence of a Law Rule.

Moreover, it was the foundational essence Wind Element from the Wind System Law Rule!

Additionally, the Wind Element grasped by the green-clad youth could not be compared to the Wind Element comprehended by Emanuel Yellow.

Emanuel Yellow had merely scratched the surface of the Wind Element.

Whereas, this green-clad youth had fully grasped the Wind Element; judging by the speed at which his Immortal Origin merged with the Wind Element, he clearly had been comprehending it for quite some time.

"Hawkins Family, Declan Hawkins."

The green-clad youth, surrounded by the green energy completely lifted by it, gazed at Wyatt Barnes, and spoke calmly, introducing himself.

"Hawkins Family? Is it that seventh-grade family, hailed as second only in power to the three sects and two clans in the Mystic Abyss Mansion?"

Upon hearing the green-clad youth introduce himself, Wyatt’s heart stirred.

The Hawkins Family had been mentioned to him on his way to Cloud Mist Lake, by the emperor of the Autumn Holding Kingdom, so he knew of the Hawkins Family’s existence.

Only, he hadn’t expected the green-clad youth before him to be from the Hawkins Family.

He still remembered Emanuel Yellow saying, "Brother Barnes, on this lower realm journey of the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm, besides us from the eighth-grade Immortal Kingdoms and some eighth-grade faction members, there will also be participants from seventh-grade factions."

"Those seventh-grade faction Love Rowans are exposed to King Grade Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities early on due to their heritage. Among the elite Love Rowans, some grasp two essences of the same Law Rule."

This was the original phrase Emanuel Yellow had said to him.

"No wonder he is so confident... Turns out he’s from a seventh-grade faction."

Wyatt’s gaze sharpened, and he calmly introduced himself, "Autumn Holding Kingdom, Wyatt Barnes!"

"Not yet a century old, a peak Love Rowan, comprehending the foundational essence Earth Element of the Earth-attribute Law... your talent and comprehension are indeed extraordinary."

Declan Hawkins looked at Wyatt Barnes, generously praising him, "It’s the first time in my life to meet someone with your level of talent and comprehension!"

"You’re not too bad yourself."

Wyatt replied.

"However, despite all that... Today, you are destined to fall here! For me, Declan Hawkins, to kill someone like you with such talent and comprehension, it’s something worth pride for a lifetime."

As Declan Hawkins spoke again, his eyes emitted a cold killing intent, clearly intent on killing Wyatt Barnes.

In the lower realm of the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm, to earn points, unless encountering familiar individuals, sparing is barely an option.

However, Declan Hawkins, even knowing Wyatt Barnes’ strength, still calmly claimed he would kill Wyatt Barnes, it showed his confidence.

"It seems Declan Hawkins has probably grasped two essences of the same Law Rule... How lucky am I?"

Facing Declan Hawkins’ confidence, Wyatt pondered.

A Love Rowan who grasps two essences of the same Law Rule is undoubtedly among the top-tier entering the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm’s lower realm.

Such a presence, within the lower realm of the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm, can roam unhindered!

In the lower realm of the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm, any Taoist Talisman infused with Immortal Origin surpassing the Love Rowan level cannot be used; even attempts would lead them to be obliterated by formations in the lower realm.

This way, Taoist Talismans would be wasted.

Those Taoist Talismans, containing powerful attacks or techniques, generally infused with the Immortal Origin of their respective experts, exceed the Immortal Origin of Love Rowans.

Because of this, anything threatening to Love Rowans cannot be used in the lower realm of the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm.

In this situation, everything depends on one’s own strength.

"Many have said such words... yet, ultimately, without exception, they all died!"

Feeling the killing intent from Declan Hawkins, Wyatt Barnes squinted his eyes slightly, a cold gleam flashed through, and his voice gradually turned icy.

"It’s because they’re useless... I will be an exception!"

Declan Hawkins spoke again, raising his hand, a sword appeared in his hand, shimmering with faint mysterious light, clearly a king-grade Immortal Sword.

"Then you might as well try!"

In Wyatt Barnes’ hand, the king-grade Immortal Artifact staff appeared timely. At present, with his mastery of Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities, he could use any weapon.

Among the several king-grade Immortal Artifacts he possessed, this staff was the pure attack-type king-grade Immortal Artifact, so he usually used it against opponents.

"Humph!"

Seeing Wyatt Barnes completely unafraid of him, Declan Hawkins’ face was full of frost, his body surrounded by azure energy flickered, and he swept towards Wyatt Barnes like a gust of wind.

During this process, faint blue shadows appeared beneath Declan Hawkins’ feet, further enhancing his speed.

As a cheetah-like silhouette appeared around Declan Hawkins’ body, his speed reached an astonishing level.

This speed was almost equal to Wyatt Barnes’ maximum speed.

"Hmm?"

Just when Wyatt Barnes thought this was Declan Hawkins’ top speed, Declan Hawkins’ figure flickered, turning into a blur in front of Wyatt Barnes.

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t completely discern the figure of Declan Hawkins.

"Is this... the second profound mystery of the Wind System Law he’s comprehended?"

In a flash of lightning, Wyatt Barnes’ face changed drastically.

Other than that, he couldn’t think of what else Declan Hawkins used to exhibit such terrifying speed, "The speed increased so much in an instant... The second profound mystery of the Wind System Law he’s comprehended must be speed-oriented, right?"

Wyatt Barnes secretly speculated.

"Kid, if you don’t want to die, fully activate your Immortal Origin Force, integrate the earth element, and infuse it into the vest you’re wearing!"

Just as Wyatt Barnes was speculating, the slightly anxious voice of Divine Soil sounded timely.

Upon hearing Divine Soil’s words, Wyatt Barnes hurriedly activated all his Immortal Origin Force, integrated the earth element, and infused it into the pure defensive king-grade Immortal Artifact vest he was wearing.

Instantly, a vest phantom woven from entirely crimson scales appeared on Wyatt Barnes’ body surface.

At the moment this vest phantom appeared, an unfathomable earth-yellow force surged from Wyatt Barnes’ body, merging into the vest phantom.

Instantly, the vest phantom seemed to become more solid.

Seeing this scene, Wyatt Barnes knew that Divine Soil had acted again, enhancing his defense by adding its power to his pure defensive king-grade Immortal Artifact.

Almost at the moment Divine Soil’s power merged into the vest phantom.

Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!

...

The piercing sound of swords suddenly erupted, echoing in Wyatt Barnes’ ears.

At the same time, before Wyatt Barnes could react, countless sword lights carrying azure energy roared down like a torrential rain, striking the vest phantom on his body surface.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

...

The vest phantom trembled fiercely, teetering as if it might collapse at any moment, but stubbornly held on.

"Such fast speed! Such swift swords!"

Wyatt Barnes was shocked, realizing that without the integration of Divine Soil’s power into his defensive Immortal Artifact, enhancing his defense, he couldn’t possibly fend off Declan Hawkins’ assault.

"Too fast... The second profound mystery of the Wind System Law Declan Hawkins comprehended, what profound mystery is it exactly?"

Wyatt Barnes was trembling internally, and subconsciously asked Divine Soil.

"The second profound mystery of the Wind System Law he’s comprehended is the speed-oriented ’Profound Meaning of Swiftness’... This profound mystery of swiftness is one of the most practical profound mysteries of the Wind System Law, enhancing both movement speed and attack speed."

Divine Soil said, "Kid, without me here... you would have already perished under his sword!"

"Given this young man’s strength, in this entry into the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm among the Love Rowan Upper Immortals, he ranks as one of the top existences."

Divine Soil said, its tone becoming somewhat grave.

"However, now with my assistance... no matter how fast his speed, breaking through your defense isn’t possible."

As it spoke, Divine Soil was slightly proud, "In the end, he will have to give up attacking you."

And as if to illustrate Divine Soil’s words.

Declan Hawkins stopped attacking Wyatt Barnes after a round of strikes, and Wyatt Barnes could see Declan Hawkins’ figure clearly again.

"I didn’t expect that you also comprehended the second profound mystery of the same law... The second profound mystery of the Earth-attribute Law you comprehended must be defense-oriented, right? Otherwise, you couldn’t have blocked my attack so effortlessly."

Declan Hawkins stared at Wyatt Barnes, speaking in a deep voice, "I have underestimated you."
