Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1538: Narrow Escape
Chapter 1538: Chapter 1538: Narrow Escape
It was precisely because of Emperor End’s composure that, even when the ’Inscription Array’ outside was crushed by the seawater, he wasn’t killed, clinging to a thread of life.
In the span of eleven breaths, he was heavily injured by Elder Fire, on the brink of death, barely hanging on, yet he did not perish.
When the seawater struck the Jewel Tower, both Wyatt Barnes, who was watching from the side, and the barely surviving Emperor End were immediately transported out.
"Kid, I’ve remembered what happened today... the next time we meet, I won’t let you off!"
As Wyatt Barnes was brought out, he heard the distant voice of Emperor End grow fainter and fainter.
At that moment, Emperor End, forcibly expelled from the Jewel Tower, crushed a high-level Divine Travel Talisman and vanished like lightning in the blink of an eye.
For those above the Saint Realm, such as Emperor End, activating a Taoist Talisman with True Origin doesn’t require uttering ’Activate.’
As long as the True Origin is infused and it is crushed, that’s enough.
Wyatt could tell that Emperor End’s words were weak and feeble, clearly indicating he was seriously injured.
Moreover, he dared not linger any longer, showing he was truly afraid of Elder Fire.
"I must hurry back... while he’s still panicked and temporarily loses his rational judgment, I must take Uncle Romero and the others away from Crescent Island!"
Without any hesitation, and not even having time to greet the three-legged Golden Crow, ’Elder Fire,’ inside the Jewel Tower, Wyatt Barnes shrunk the Jewel Tower and set off at his fastest speed back to Crescent Island.
Upon returning to Crescent Island, Taoi Romero and the others were overjoyed to see him.
"Whatever you have to say, wait until we leave... that Emperor End could come back at any time."
Seeing Taoi Romero and the others about to speak, Wyatt Barnes stopped them, then with a wave of his hand, a vast amount of True Energy swept out, enveloping and carrying them away from Crescent Island at the fastest speed.
However, after leaving Crescent Island, Wyatt Barnes did not head directly south back to the Mortal Continent.
Instead, he went west, circled around, and only then began to head southeast.
This was to avoid Emperor End returning after regaining his calm.
Facts proved that Wyatt’s concerns were correct.
After crushing the Divine Travel Talisman to escape, Emperor End hurriedly took a few healing Pill Medicines, recovering somewhat from his injuries.
Though no longer at his terrifying peak, Emperor End was confident he could crush anyone not above the ’Saint Realm.’
Meanwhile, the panic and fear in Emperor End’s heart gradually subsided as he calmed down.
"Something’s not right!"
Once calm, he immediately sensed something was off, "That large bird engulfed in golden flames didn’t seem to pursue... Could it not leave that seven-tiered giant tower?"
Thinking this, the more Emperor End pondered, the more certain he felt, his face instantly filled with regret.
"Why didn’t I think of that before? Otherwise, even if I couldn’t re-enter that seven-tier tower, I could have killed that kid right after being expelled."
Thinking of Wyatt Barnes, Emperor End gritted his teeth in hatred.
If he hadn’t realized by now that the crisis he faced was entirely orchestrated by Wyatt Barnes, he might as well have lived those many years in vain.
Although Emperor End couldn’t possibly think that the seven-tier tower belonged to Wyatt, he could sense that everything he encountered had Wyatt Barnes’ fingerprints all over it.
Just entering the tower, he was abused by a Sacred Beast with terrifying strength.
In his view, with the power of that Sacred Beast, killing the kid named ’Wyatt Barnes’ would have been no problem at all.
Yet that kid managed to stay inside unharmed for a quarter of an hour.
Bear in mind, even he, Emperor End, could barely withstand ten or so breaths inside, almost killed, only escaping with a single breath by using the Divine Travel Talisman when expelled.
At that time, he was so consumed by panic that he couldn’t think about much.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left.
Now that everything was clear, Emperor End’s eyes flashed, a fierce light flickering, "Kid, you dare deceive me... If I don’t kill you, I, Emperor End, am not worthy of being a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon of the Dragonsmith Clan!"
At that moment, Emperor End was almost certain that Wyatt Barnes had long been aware of the presence of that formidable bird in the tower and deliberately lured him in.
From being familiar with the situation inside, Wyatt himself could immediately avoid that terrifyingly powerful and strange big bird, letting it deal with him.
Now that he had pieced everything together, Emperor End’s fury was burgeoning ever hotter.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Emperor End vanished from his original spot, rushing back to the ocean depths at his fastest speed.
But when he got back, where was Wyatt Barnes’ trace to be found?
Even the seven-tier tower had vanished without a trace.
"It seemed to be here."
Arriving at a seaweed bed, trying to replicate what he’d done before by stamping at the ocean floor, Emperor End found that the seven-tiered giant tower did not appear again.
"Could it be that the location is incorrect?"
Immediately, Emperor End quickly searched every corner of the seaweed cluster, but the seven-layered giant tower still did not appear.
"Could it be that making the seven-layered giant tower appear requires some kind of technique?"
Emperor End’s face was gloomy, utterly unable to comprehend the reason.
If Wyatt Barnes saw Emperor End’s series of actions, he would surely laugh involuntarily.
Simply because he did it just to deceive Emperor End.
As early as his first pass through this sea area, he had left the Jewel Tower, which had turned to dust, here ahead of time... Later, he brought Emperor End back here, pretending to activate some mechanism while simultaneously with a thought, made the Jewel Tower enlarge.
His kicking action was just a blind method.
After finding it impossible to make the seven-layered giant tower appear, Emperor End’s face was even gloomier.
"Kid, you have completely angered me... Since that’s the case, there’s no need for your friends to live in this world any longer! Killing them now wouldn’t violate my previous Thunder Punishment vow!"
In anger, Emperor End left the deep sea with maximum speed, returning to the mountain valley of Crescent Island.
However, when he returned, he quickly found that the valley was already deserted, everyone had left.
Unwilling to give up, he searched the surroundings but still found nothing, so he immediately headed south, "All of them are from the Mortal Continent... now, they should be returning to the Mortal Continent!"
"In such a short time, even if that kid came back and led them on the road, as long as the direction is accurate, I could catch up with them in the shortest time."
Thinking of this, Emperor End headed south at full speed.
Half an hour later, Emperor End stopped, muttering with a gloomy face, "It seems they didn’t go south... otherwise, with my speed, I would have certainly caught up with them by now."
Currently, Emperor End had already appeared not far from the ’Cloud Skies Continent’ of the Mortal Continent.
"What I can think of, that cunning kid can surely think of too... Maybe he took the group north, towards the Martial Dao Sacred Land."
Then, Emperor End retraced his steps, returning to Crescent Island, and continued searching northward.
This time, searching to the north, relying on his speed, he searched in a carpet-like fashion, leaving no corner untouched.
However, days later, he still found nothing.
When he came to his senses and returned to Crescent Island, then searched the southern sea area in a carpet-like fashion... Wyatt Barnes had already led Taoi Romero and others back to his hometown, Cloud Skies Continent.
If he returned to Cloud Skies Continent under normal circumstances, Wyatt Barnes would surely be in a good mood.
But now, his mood was extremely gloomy, feeling as if the entire sky above him was dark.
His two fiancées, one missing, the other forcibly taken away from his side... this feeling of having his heart ripped out drove him nearly mad!
However, in the end, he calmed down.
At this point, he could only remain calm, nothing would come from being agitated.
Having lived two lives, this bit of self-control, Wyatt Barnes still possessed.
"Jovie and Little Black are together, there should be no problem... After three years, Little Black and they must have also broken through to the ’Transcending Mortal Realm’! The three of them, as Sacred Beasts, besides their strength, have insight far surpassing humans. Crescent Island suffered a catastrophe, their only choice is to find Julia, to seek reinforcements." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Once calm, Wyatt Barnes’s thoughts gradually became clearer.
Thinking of this, he felt relieved.
"Keer was taken by Vanessa, with Vanessa’s attitude towards her, she shouldn’t be harmed... Vanessa is someone from the ’Fire Worship Sect’. If I want to find Keer in the future, this is the only ’clue’ I have currently."
Thinking of Keer, even though Wyatt Barnes has calmed down, he cannot help but feel a stabbing pain in his heart.
Vanessa, obviously unhappy with the child Keer was carrying.
Furthermore, according to Vanessa, another group is also searching for Keer, and that group could very likely be harmful to Keer.
"What kind of mysterious lineage does Keer possess?"
Wyatt Barnes could not fathom this no matter how hard he thought.
Before he knew it, Wyatt Barnes, with Taoi Romero and others, had arrived in the southern ten dynasty regions of the Cloud Skies Continent, back to the Great Turdo Dynasty, back to the Green Forest Royal Country under the Black Stone Empire.
His ultimate destination was that hidden, secluded canyon in the deep mountains.
It was also the place where Sword Saint ’Breezy Wind’ left his legacy.
The people accompanying him now were those who could entrust their lives to him, so he did not intend to conceal these facts.
Of course, many of the people around him had already been exposed to this canyon.
Such as Fill Bear, such as Taoi Romero, such as Enzo Hawkins, who had encountered this canyon before and benefited in different ways.
Handmi Holland, the Brother Nangle duo, and Kamari Gold were visiting here for the first time.
As soon as they entered, they were inevitably drawn to the word ’sword’ on the mountain wall within the canyon.
