Chapter 2805: The Soul Bead Shatters
"Brother Wyatt, which way should we head now?"
Leilany blinked her beautiful autumn eyes and asked Wyatt Barnes, the deep curiosity in her gaze not only didn’t fade but grew even stronger.
"Let’s just randomly pick a direction to go first... According to what Brother Patel said that day, there are clearly some dangers here, and it’s difficult to survive with strength below ’Upper Immortal of the Desolate Territory’."
Wyatt’s eyes flashed, and he said, "Of course, we don’t need to worry about that."
After speaking, Wyatt couldn’t help but sigh.
Originally, when the Three Great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory decided to let the nine Purple Sun Golden Immortals enter this small world first to probe, he had breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that with the deaths of the nine Purple Sun Golden Immortals as a ’lesson from the past,’ they could surely protect the lives of the remaining forty or so Purple Sun Golden Immortals.
But unexpectedly, a month passed, and those nine Purple Sun Golden Immortals who had entered the small world first were still alive and well.
At that time, Wyatt knew:
The remaining Purple Sun Golden Immortals wouldn’t escape this catastrophe either!
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to remind the Sect Leaders of the Three Great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory, to say that this small world is dangerous, and even a Daai Law Golden Immortal cannot survive here...
But he couldn’t say it!
If he said it, and he himself came in as well, others would surely think he said it on purpose in a bid to monopolize the various inheritances and treasures in the small world.
Of course, he could also disclose that Leilany was under a hundred years old, saying that only Upper Immortals under a hundred years old could survive here, and that he also needed to be under Leilany’s protection to survive.
However, once he did that, it would definitely bring danger to Leilany.
Moreover, even if he did that, the people of the Three Great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory might not necessarily believe him.
So, he simply said nothing, observing the development of the situation silently.
Helpless.
This idiom could perfectly interpret Wyatt’s mood at that time.
What he could do was survive well inside here together with Leilany, and to help that mysterious young man with the surname the ’Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact Nine Yin Nine Lattice Ring,’ along with seeing if he could obtain some inheritance and treasures inside.
"Leilany, where do you think we should go first?"
Wyatt looked at Leilany.
"Brother Wyatt, Leilany doesn’t know."
Leilany shook her head.
"I know you don’t know, I don’t know either, just point in any direction."
Wyatt said with a smile.
"Then let’s go this way first."
Leilany pointed in the direction she was facing and said to Wyatt.
"Alright, let’s head this way."
Wyatt nodded, then set off together with Leilany in the direction she pointed.
As they walked, a mist formed in their wake, like a cleaved ’cloud road’ in the sky above the vast lake beneath them.
After about a quarter of an hour of walking.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, as if sensing something, Leilany halted her movement.
"Leilany, what’s wrong?"
Seeing Leilany halt, Wyatt immediately followed suit and stopped, looking at Leilany with a face full of doubt.
And almost as he looked at Leilany with doubt, before Leilany even had time to respond, he suddenly turned around, staring straight ahead...
It was because, at this moment, he also sensed something was wrong ahead.
Suddenly.
Boom!!
Rumble!!
...
Accompanied by thunderous roars from the distance, the sound grew louder, and Wyatt clearly saw:
A flock of flying beasts appeared beyond the clouds ahead.
Each of these flying beasts was as large as a small hill, and the hundred of them together formed a cloud of darkness, obscuring the sky as they swept in.
"What kind of Immortal Beast is this?"
Wyatt’s eyes narrowed as he too saw the shape of the flock—bird-like creatures resembling eagles and buzards, but much larger, and with eyes covered by a bloody fierce glare.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
...
Their wings, like blades, sliced through the air as they screeched towards him and Leilany, creating blades of air with each flap they took.
Moreover, their sharp talons, each claw sharp and menacing, seemed capable of tearing anything apart!
"These flying beasts... the weakest have the cultivation of a Yellow Sun Golden Immortal; the strongest even have the cultivation of a Cyan Sun Golden Immortal."
After sweeping with his Divine Sense, Wyatt clearly perceived the approximate cultivation of this flock of flying beasts charging towards him and Leilany, "Even a Blue Sun Golden Immortal would avoid confronting such a group of beasts head-on."
"Only someone of Purple Sun Golden Immortal and above would dare face them directly!"
Wyatt mused to himself.
And as Wyatt was muttering in his heart:
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
...
Before Wyatt could react, a powerful icy chill emanated from Keer’s body, spreading out like lightning.
It seemed as if the entire sky was frozen in an instant.
By the time Wyatt reacted, the over one hundred aggressive flying beasts had already been engulfed by the powerful icy aura, turning every single one into an ice sculpture.
Over a hundred flying beasts turned into ice sculptures, lifeless in an instant.
However, after losing their vitality, their ice sculpture corpses continued sliding a long way due to inertia.
They only fell and plunged into the lake when they were less than a hundred meters from Wyatt Barnes and Leilany.
Soon after, Wyatt heard the faint sound of splashing, evidently from those ice sculpture flying beast corpses falling into the lake.
Over a hundred flying beasts were killed by Leilany in an instant.
From start to finish, Leilany stood in place without even raising a hand...
"Leilany, the next time we encounter an attack, unless I can’t resist it, don’t take action... I’ve increased my cultivation to this level, yet haven’t had a good real battle."
Wyatt said to Leilany with a bitter smile, "Let me handle what I can."
"Leilany just doesn’t want Brother Leandro to be too tired."
Seeing Wyatt’s bitter smile, Leilany thought Wyatt was blaming him, and she pouted slightly in grievance.
"Leilany, don’t misunderstand, Brother Leandro doesn’t blame you."
Seeing Leilany’s tearful expression, Wyatt realized her misunderstanding and quickly explained, "Brother Leandro just wants to practice against those Immortal Beasts I can handle, not blaming you for taking action."
"Really?"
Leilany looked at Wyatt eagerly and asked seriously.
"Of course, it’s true."
Wyatt nodded quickly.
Almost at the moment Wyatt nodded.
Bang!!
A loud noise suddenly came from the location of the lake beneath the clouds and fog, deafening.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
...
After the first loud noise, more loud noises followed.
"Hmm?"
As the loud noises continued one after another, Wyatt could clearly feel:
A series of powerful auras suddenly emanated from beneath the clouds, no less impressive than those flying beast Immortal Beasts killed by Leilany earlier.
"Roar——"
"Howl——"
...
Moments later, the clouds beneath Wyatt and Leilany’s feet stirred and then dispersed.
Simultaneously, a series of silhouettes as large as mountains appeared before Wyatt and Leilany.
"These Immortal Beasts... Each one’s cultivation is at the ’Cyan Sun Golden Immortal’ level!"
Wyatt narrowed his eyes slightly at the thirteen gigantic creatures emerging from beneath him, silently muttering, "Before them, even a typical Purple Sun Golden Immortal would avoid them... Anyone below Purple Sun Golden Immortal who encounters them will surely die!"
"I didn’t expect... just entering this small world, we encounter such powerful Immortal Beasts."
As Wyatt thought of this, he made a move against the thirteen gigantic creatures, which stared at him and Leilany with blood-red eyes.
Whoosh!
Like a gust of wind sweeping by, Wyatt disappeared from his spot.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
...
Amid the sound of swords, bright blood suddenly erupted from the thirteen gigantic creatures looking like whale sharks, and in no time, they were riddled with wounds.
Boom!
Half a breath later, Wyatt reappeared, returning to his original position.
"Moo~~"
"Howl~~"
...
And the thirteen gigantic creatures, riddled with wounds, breathed their last and fell from the sky.
This time, a series of splashing sounds followed, far louder than before.
"Leilany, let’s continue toward there."
After killing the thirteen gigantic creatures, Wyatt called Leilany to continue onward.
Even before Wyatt had achieved ’Daai Law Golden Immortal,’ killing those thirteen whale shark-like Immortal Beasts was easy; let alone now that he has advanced to ’Earth Realm Daai Law Golden Immortal.’
So, after killing the thirteen Cyan Sun Golden Immortal beasts, he didn’t take the matter to heart.
It was just a casual action.
And as Wyatt and Leilany continued forward.
Near the only entrance to this small world, Desolate Territory’s three main sects’ high-level members, whether cultivating or resting with eyes closed, simultaneously opened their eyes, faces changing dramatically.
All of this was due to two crisp cracking sounds that rang out consecutively.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
After the cracking sounds spread, Desolate Territory’s three main sects’ high-level members clearly saw:
The ’Soul Beads’ of three of the nine Purple Sun Golden Immortal who first entered the small world left by the Immortal King shattered within a breath’s time, reduced to powder and dispersed in the wind.
"That was... the three ’Purple Sun Golden Immortal’ under a hundred years old, recruited by the Thousand Spider Sect after the Desolate Territory competition!"
An elder from the Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect exclaimed.
