Chapter 1829: Chapter 1829: Suppressing Demons!
"A mantis trying to stop a chariot!"
Although she noticed the peculiarity of the sword in Wyatt Barnes’s hand, Eliel Howard still didn’t take Wyatt’s strike to heart.
In her view, it was just the attack of a Martial Artist at the peak of the Great Saint Realm. Even if he were given the mighty famous sword ’Nine Heavens Sword’ from the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List, there was no way he could block her strike!
This was her confidence as a Demon Cultivator at the late stage of the Human Saint Realm!
If it weren’t for her fear of the Demon Sealing Monument in Wyatt’s hand, she wouldn’t have remained hidden, waiting for the right moment to strike.
As soon as Tommy Dunn appeared, temporarily distracting the Demon Sealing Monument, she realized this was her best chance to act.
Therefore, upon seeing her probing strike’s reaction from the Demon Sealing Monument, and once it did not abandon Tommy Dunn, she seized the opportunity to act with speed!
She was already prepared to perish together with Wyatt Barnes!
Buzz!!
The blade in Eliel Howard’s hand sliced through the air like a silver moon pouring down, finally meeting Wyatt’s Splendid Fairy Sword in a powerful clash.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
As the power on Eliel’s blade collided with the power on the Splendid Fairy Sword, the void trembled and emitted thunder-like explosions, with turbulent waves sweeping out and stirring up fierce gales.
"Impossible!"
When Eliel discovered that the force on Wyatt’s sword faintly surpassed the force on her blade, her expression changed dramatically.
She had never imagined such a thing could happen!
Wasn’t this Wyatt Barnes a Martial Artist at the peak of the Great Saint Realm?
Since when could a Martial Artist at the peak of the Great Saint Realm contend with a Demon Cultivator at the late stage of the Human Saint Realm?
Amid flashing thunder and lightning, Eliel never thought about the ’sword’ in Wyatt’s hand.
At the same time, Tommy Dunn, abandoned by the Demon Sealing Monument from afar, didn’t even have the chance to think or look at what was happening; he instantly fled.
In a flash, he vanished like a phantom into the distance, far away from Wyatt and Eliel’s battlefield.
Pfft!
A crisp sound echoed as the Splendid Fairy Sword in Wyatt’s hand sliced through Eliel’s blade, and then it transformed like a venomous snake, fiercely striking toward Eliel.
Given that Eliel was at the late stage of the Human Saint Realm, coupled with Wyatt’s Splendid Fairy Sword losing momentum, she managed to evade the sword’s deadly strike.
However, while she dodged the lethal blow of the Splendid Fairy Sword, the approaching Demon Sealing Monument also arrived.
Boom!!
The Demon Sealing Monument soared through the air, descending like a mountain upon Eliel, seemingly intent on completely subduing her.
"No!!"
Facing the oncoming Demon Sealing Monument and seeing Wyatt in the distance, pale and on the brink of collapse, Eliel’s eyes were full of unwillingness.
"Even if I die, I’ll take you down with me!"
With all her might, she aimed to throw her broken blade before the Demon Sealing Monument suppressed her, intending to kill Wyatt!
She was confident that once her broken blade flew out, Wyatt would be dead without a doubt!
This was her last chance!
Unfortunately, just as Eliel infused her internal strength into the broken blade, intending to throw it,
the terrifying power from the Demon Sealing Monument enveloped her body.
With unrelenting force, it surged into her mind, extinguishing her soul directly!
With her soul obliterated, Eliel’s body naturally became a lifeless husk, and the broken blade she was about to throw fell from her hand.
"Pant~~"
"Pant~~ Pant~~ Pant~~"
In the distance, seeing Eliel killed by the Demon Sealing Monument, Wyatt immediately relaxed his tense nerves, gasping for large breaths of air.
"No! Tommy Dunn has escaped!"
After gasping for breath and regaining some strength, Wyatt glanced casually into the distance. Seeing it devoid of any presence, his expression changed drastically.
"Demon Sealing Monument!"
Simultaneously, Wyatt looked toward the Demon Sealing Monument.
The Demon Sealing Monument seemed to sense Wyatt’s emotions as the flickering black lightning around it grew more fierce and rampant.
It then began to spin in the air, as if probing or confirming a direction.
Whoosh!
Moments later, under Wyatt’s expectant gaze, the Demon Sealing Monument suddenly jerked, transforming into a meteor streaking across the sky, disappearing from Wyatt’s sight in an instant.
The direction in which the Demon Sealing Monument pursued was exactly the direction Tommy Dunn had fled!
"Tommy Dunn!"
After collecting Eliel’s Storage Ring, Wyatt used the remaining trace of True Origin to travel. Though his speed was not his best, it wasn’t slow either.
However, as his True Origin continued to deplete, his pace slowed once more.
"I hope the Demon Sealing Monument catches up to Tommy Dunn and suppresses him!"
At this moment, Wyatt could only silently pray in his heart.
In the distance, after Tommy Dunn abandoned it at the Demon Sealing Monument, he fled madly away, his speed pushed to the limit without any reservation.
At first, despite his running away, he didn’t hear anything behind him, and his face was filled with relief at having narrowly escaped disaster.
However, when he heard the swift sound of something tearing through the air behind him, his expression changed completely, "That Demon Sealing Monument... has caught up?!"
In the midst of fleeing, Tommy Dunn glanced back.
With just one look, he saw something akin to black lightning swiftly attacking towards him.
This speed, even compared to the peak of Human Saint Realm powerhouses, was either equal or faster!
As Tommy Dunn turned his head and saw that black lightning, the moment a thought flashed in his mind, the black lightning was already before him, swooping down on him.
"No!!"
Tommy Dunn only managed to cry out in sorrow, and then his body shook, plummeting to the ground.
Looking at his wide-open eyes, now devoid of light, replaced by a dim emptiness.
It was evident that Tommy Dunn’s soul had been suppressed by the Demon Sealing Monument.
Fifteen minutes later, Wyatt Barnes arrived at the scene slowly, seeing the Demon Sealing Monument floating in the air and Tommy Dunn lying on the ground, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Thankfully, Tommy Dunn didn’t escape... otherwise, the news that I’m ’Wyatt Barnes’ would spread far and wide?"
"The Demon Sealing Monument is one of the renowned Top Ten Sacred Artifacts in the Martial Dao Sacred Land, even in the Upper Domain it’s an incredible existence... Once the news spreads, even though I have the Mansion of Azure Clouds’ protection, no one from the Lower Domain can seize my Demon Sealing Monument. But what about the Upper Domain? People from the Lower Domain fear the Mansion of Azure Clouds somewhat, but the powerhouses from the Upper Domain completely disregard it!"
With this thought, Wyatt felt a trace of lingering fear.
However, with Tommy Dunn dead, it meant that this was all over.
The news that he is Wyatt Barnes would not spread, at least for now it wouldn’t.
After killing Tommy Dunn, Wyatt rested for a while and continued on his way to the Mansion of Azure Clouds.
Mysterious Void Mansion, Main Mansion.
"At this time... Tommy should have killed Wyatt by now, right?"
Atlas Dunn, due to being restricted by the Yellow Palace Master ’Lachlan Jimenez’, couldn’t leave the Mysterious Void Mansion premises, and could only stay at home waiting for news.
Smack!
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from not far away, attracting Atlas Dunn’s gaze.
Atlas Dunn looked over and saw on the distant table where three beads were placed, the one on the far right directly shattered into pieces.
Seeing this bead shatter, Atlas Dunn’s eyes widened suddenly, turning crimson.
"Tommy!!"
After a while, he finally roared, his voice filled with anger and grief.
That bead was the Soul Bead of his son Tommy Dunn!
The Soul Bead shattered, which also meant Tommy Dunn had been killed, his soul annihilated.
Whoosh!
Filled with emotions of anger and sadness, Atlas Dunn also completely ignored Lachlan Jimenez, immediately flying away from his home, prepared to leave the Mysterious Void Mansion to pursue Wyatt.
He wanted to know how his son died!
However, Lachlan Jimenez didn’t know what Atlas Dunn was going through, so he swiftly stopped Atlas.
"Palace Master Jimenez, my son was killed, do you intend to block me from finding the murderer? Or perhaps, you are one of the accomplices in killing my son?"
Atlas Dunn glared at Lachlan Jimenez with bloodshot eyes, sending chills down Lachlan’s spine.
"Tommy Dunn... was killed?"
Lachlan Jimenez frowned.
"Do you think I would deceive you with such a matter? Palace Master Jimenez, you’d better think it through... if your obstruction causes me to lose the best chance to pursue the murderer, then you will become an accomplice! Then, you’ll explain yourself to my father!"
Speaking this, Atlas Dunn invoked his father ’Edison Dunn’, his tone full of anger and impatience.
Hearing this, Lachlan Jimenez gasped.
He could tell that Atlas Dunn wasn’t bluffing.
Thus, he reluctantly stepped aside.
After all, nearly half of the three-day period had passed, and imagining that Wyatt would have distanced himself from the Mysterious Void Mansion, even if Atlas pursued, it was unlikely he could catch up.
When Tommy Dunn left the Mysterious Void Mansion premises, he queried some disciples from the Dunn Family line within the mansion.
Upon knowing the direction Wyatt Barnes left, as well as the direction several disciples above the Middle Saint Realm from the Mysterious Void Mansion left, he immediately hurried in that direction.
Because he knew, his son Tommy Dunn definitely went that way!
Soon, Atlas Dunn encountered a group of mid-level Great Saint Realm disciples of the Dunn Family line returning to the Mysterious Void Mansion, instantly stopping them, and asked sternly, "Did you see Tommy?"
"Vice House Master, sir!"
Facing Atlas Dunn, a group of Dunn Family line disciples bowed respectfully, and upon his inquiry, they all nodded.
"Vice House Master, sir, we encountered Junior Disciple... However, Junior Disciple seemed to use a stealth spell Taoist Talisman later and just disappeared before us."
Many echoed this statement.
"Stealth spell Taoist Talisman?"
Atlas Dunn frowned.
Yet, as his Divine Sense extended out, probing the cultivation of the disciples from the Dunn Family line before him, he suddenly realized.
A group of mid-level Great Saint Realm Martial Artists, couldn’t possibly capture the speed of his son at the early stage of the Human Saint Realm!
