Chapter 1745: Chapter 1745: Truly Useless!
"He actually agreed, seems like this guy is just a simple-headed ’Martial Maniac’!"
Cox Mountain snickered internally.
Anyway, since Wyatt Barnes accepted the challenge of the Cox brothers, the matter was naturally settled.
Although Ebba King and Lumi Clifford didn’t look pleased, they said no more to Wyatt, knowing it was too late for him to back out now.
"Could it be that he is confident in defeating the combined forces of the Cox brothers?"
Even Ebba King had this thought pop into her head inexplicably.
However, as soon as the thought appeared, she dismissed it, "In the Heavenly Palace of the Mysterious Void, any disciple who just broke through to the peak of Middle Saint Realm can’t be a match for the Cox brothers combined... The strength of the Cox brothers is widely recognized!"
"Forget it, let him suffer a bit, so that he won’t dare to act independently again and not listen to others’ advice."
Ebba King was naturally displeased that Wyatt didn’t heed her advice, especially since she was only looking out for him.
Wyatt Barnes and the Cox brothers stood across from each other, and the atmosphere on site grew tense.
Though many were watching, everyone remained silent, so quiet that the drop of a pin could be heard.
"Oh? What’s happening over there?"
At this moment, a voice came from afar as a Heavenly Palace disciple, who just reached the peak, showed curiosity while approaching.
Soon, he learned what was happening from others and joined the crowd, saying, "This Wyatt is overestimating himself... Even though he has just broken through to the peak of Middle Saint Realm, he can’t possibly be a match for the Cox brothers."
Following this, more people arrived consecutively during the confrontation between Wyatt Barnes and the Cox brothers.
"Brother Matthew!"
Unnoticed, the eyes of some Heavenly Palace disciples fell on a young man who also joined the onlookers, greeting him respectfully.
This young man was none other than Matthew King, the direct disciple of the Vice Hall Master, Lay Sinclair.
He was the one who brought Wyatt to the spirit pool that day.
"Junior Wyatt, you are quite impulsive... I’ve heard of the Cox brothers. Ordinary peak Middle Saint Realm practitioners are not necessarily their match, let alone you, who just reached the peak not long ago."
After Matthew King appeared, he timely sent a message to Wyatt Barnes.
"Don’t worry, Brother Matthew. I never do anything I’m not confident in."
Wyatt Barnes’ response was full of confidence.
"Hmm?"
Hearing Wyatt’s confident reply, Matthew King was momentarily stunned. Then he looked deeply at Wyatt and responded, "In that case, I look forward to your performance, Junior Wyatt! Of course, even if you can’t win, you don’t have to worry about them scheming against you, affecting your trip to the Saint Martial Secret Realm... At a critical moment, I will intervene."
"Thank you, Brother Matthew."
Even though Wyatt didn’t need Matthew’s help, he still thanked him for the goodwill.
"Wyatt, we won’t bully you... You can make the first move."
Cox Mountain, standing with Waylen Cox, fixed his gaze on Wyatt Barnes and said in a deep voice.
At this moment, the aura of the Cox brothers blended together strangely, giving Wyatt Barnes the odd feeling that he was not facing two people, but just one.
"The combined strength of the Cox brothers is indeed extraordinary... The fusion of their aura alone is not something normal twin brothers can achieve."
Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrows, secretly astounded.
However, even so, he wasn’t worried at all.
He, at this stage, didn’t even need the ’Splendid Fairy Sword’. Forget about peak Middle Saint Realm martial artists, he wouldn’t fear even early Great Saint Realm ones.
Of course, others were unaware of this fact.
"Ridiculous! At such an age, two brothers teaming up to outnumber someone, and they still have the gall to say they aren’t bullying... The shamelessness of the Cox brothers is truly eye-opening for me, Ebba King!"
Hearing Cox Mountain’s words, Ebba King, naturally displeased, remarked sarcastically.
Although her voice wasn’t loud, it reached everyone on site and received support from most.
It made the Cox brothers’ faces extremely unpleasant, yet they could only glare at Ebba King without retorting.
And Ebba King was naturally unafraid of them. After all, she was the ’Miss’ of Tyrant Saber Manor.
In the Mysterious Void, while the Cox brothers were strong, they were merely ordinary disciples. If Tyrant Saber Manor had a reason to eliminate them, Mysterious Void might not intervene.
Of course, speaking solely of Ebba King and the Cox brothers, Mysterious Void unquestionably valued the former more. Perhaps the former’s current strength didn’t exceed the latter’s, but with her talent, surpassing them was only a matter of time.
The Cox brothers, knowing this well, only glared at Ebba King without making any threats because they realized their threats would be ineffective against her and could potentially make her a complete enemy, which was not what they wanted.
If possible, they preferred not to overly antagonize Ebba King.
"Are you sure you want me to make the first move?"
Wyatt Barnes glanced at the Cox brothers indifferently and asked.
"What? Afraid my brother will deceive you?"
Waylen Cox sneered.
"Rest assured, my word as Waylen Cox is as good as gold! My words represent the words of us brothers."
Waylen Cox snorted.
"In that case, I’ll be direct with you!"
Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes nodded, his gaze turning cold as the Sun True Essence within him surged, bursting through the ninety-nine Saint Veins.
In an instant, it transformed into a domain that encompassed a hundred-meter radius with him at the center.
Wyatt Barnes’ domain was naturally the ’Ten Thousand Sword Domain’!
However, due to the presence of the Sun True Essence, his Ten Thousand Sword Domain resembled a massive blazing sun, not only enveloping him and blocking external sight but also encompassing the Cox brothers nearby.
For a moment, those outside, including Matthew King, found their view obstructed, unable to see the situation inside.
"What is this thing?"
"It seems to be a domain."
"What kind of domain is this? We can’t see anything inside."
...
Outside, many disciples of the Mysterious Void Palace were anxious, finding themselves restless yet helpless due to this sudden obstruction at a critical moment.
"Is this his domain?"
Ebba King looked surprised, "What sort of domain is this?"
Though she had known Wyatt Barnes for some time, this was her first time witnessing him manifest a domain.
"This is..."
Meanwhile, in the crowd watching, Enoch Mullins and Isaias Tasker exchanged a glance, seeing astonishment and disbelief mirrored in each other’s eyes.
"This domain... why does it resemble the one Uncle described of Eden Lee so much?"
"I’ve also heard that Eden Lee’s domain takes the form of a massive blazing sun once it’s formed... it’s astonishing how Wyatt’s domain is so similar to Eden Lee’s. It seems he indeed has an unusual connection with Eden Lee."
The two exchanged their thoughts via sound transmission, detecting shock and incredulity in each other’s tones.
Within the Ten Thousand Sword Domain, unseen by the crowd, as it formed and enveloped the Cox brothers, their expressions drastically changed.
Being inside Wyatt Barnes’ domain, they were horrified to find their True Origin seemed restricted.
This was suppression by True Origin!
"How is this possible?!"
"Impossible! Even if he’s at the peak of the Middle Saint Realm, the domain formed by his True Origin shouldn’t be able to suppress our True Origin... Only beings in the Great Saint Realm and above can achieve this kind of suppression!"
The Cox brothers felt a surge of panic, clueless about what had gone wrong.
Never for a moment did they suspect Wyatt Barnes of being a Great Saint Realm powerhouse!
Wyatt Barnes was just a young man not yet forty, and they couldn’t associate such a young person with a Great Saint Realm powerhouse.
Of course, Wyatt Barnes wasn’t a Great Saint Realm powerhouse either. The ability of his True Origin domain to suppress the Cox brothers’ True Origin was due to his ’Sun True Essence’.
In terms of power, his current Sun True Essence could even rival an ordinary True Origin from the early stages of the Great Saint Realm.
That’s why the Cox brothers’ True Origin was suppressed.
"It must be an ability attached to his domain!"
"Yes! His domain must have the power to suppress our True Origin!"
Waylen Cox murmured, soon seconded by his brother, Waylen Cox.
Although their voices were low, Wyatt Barnes clearly heard them, which made him chuckle in disbelief at their vivid imagination.
"It’s time to end this."
Wyatt Barnes’ gaze hardened, and the myriad of condensed golden sword auras within the ’Ten Thousand Sword Domain’ quickly pressed toward the Cox brothers.
The void trembled as the ten thousand swords roared, bringing immense pressure, far beyond what anyone caught in the center could bear.
"Wow!!"
At last, as the ten thousand swords closed in from all directions, Lumi Clifford was the first to succumb, his face paling as he spat out a mouthful of clotted blood under the pressure.
Shortly after, Waylen Cox met the same fate.
"What kind of domain is this?"
Meanwhile, both of them struggled to muster their True Origin to resist, exchanging a glance filled with terror and despair.
The myriad swords bore down on them like thousands of mountains.
"Truly useless!"
Watching their pitiful plight, Wyatt Barnes sneered in disdain, losing interest in toying with them further, as with a thought, the ten thousand swords rapidly merged into a massive golden sword, cleaving through the air.
Snap!!
The blade struck them fiercely.
