Chapter 1769: Chapter 1769: The Mysteries Within the Stone Forest
"Tommy... you... you..."
Atlas Dunn looked at his son, completely stunned.
He never dreamed that the first person to be eliminated from the ’Saint Martial Secret Realm’ would be his own son.
His son, before Wyatt Barnes even entered the Mysterious Void Mansion, was one of the strongest among the younger generation in the Mysterious Void Mansion. In terms of strength, he was stronger than more than ninety percent of the people who went in this time.
However, in just three days, his son was eliminated!
On the other hand, after Tommy Dunn emerged, his face was extremely grim, and his eyes were filled with raging anger, "Wyatt! I will not let you go! I will not let you go!!"
Upon hearing Tommy Dunn’s near-roaring growl, Atlas Dunn’s expression changed drastically.
The thing he feared the most had happened!
His son encountered Wyatt Barnes in the Saint Martial Secret Realm and was eliminated!
"Old Lachlan, your crow mouth... tsk tsk."
At this moment, many people looked at the Palace Master of the Yellow Palace, Lachlan Jimenez, feeling that his words had been too prophetic because Lachlan had previously told Atlas that if Tommy met Wyatt, what would happen.
And now, Tommy did encounter Wyatt, and it was more likely than not that he was eliminated early by Wyatt!
"The space inside the Saint Martial Secret Realm is so vast, and in just three days, the number of people one can encounter is very few... and yet Tommy was encountered by Wyatt! Should I say they are fated, or should I say their hostility is inevitable?"
The Palace Master of the Earth Palace sighed.
"Isn’t it obvious that their hostility is inevitable?"
The Palace Master of the Mystic Palace seemed somewhat gloating as well.
Only the Holy Palace Master didn’t look very pleased, after all, Tommy was also a disciple of his Heavenly Palace.
However, thinking that Wyatt was also his Heavenly Palace disciple, his expression eased a bit, leaving only a bitter smile on his face.
Can he blame Wyatt?
No, he cannot!
Putting himself in Wyatt’s shoes, if he were Wyatt, encountering Tommy, he probably wouldn’t have held back either.
"Father, it was Wyatt Barnes who killed my avatar and eliminated me... I want to kill him! I want to kill him!!"
Meanwhile, Tommy Dunn finally came to his senses and looked at Atlas Dunn for the first time with clenched teeth, filled with a chilling hatred, as though he wouldn’t be at peace unless Wyatt died.
Hearing Tommy Dunn’s words, everyone present, except for Ryatt Morgan and Withered, turned pale.
Although Ryatt Morgan didn’t turn pale, his expression also became grim.
Someone, in front of him, was openly declaring to murder a fellow disciple!
Slap!
At the same time as Ryatt Morgan’s face turned grim, a crisp slapping sound echoed. It was Atlas Dunn who reached Tommy’s side first and gave him a slap, swelling half of his face.
Tommy Dunn looked at his father in front of him, completely stunned.
Just now, in the Saint Martial Secret Realm, he had just suffered two slaps from Wyatt, and now that he was out, he expected comfort from his father, but instead got a slap from him.
At that moment, Tommy Dunn felt like there was no meaning to living in this world anymore!
"You fool! With the House Master present, you dare say such things?"
Just then, Atlas Dunn’s voice transmitted into Tommy’s ears, snapping him back to clarity.
When he came back to his senses and looked at Ryatt Morgan, he found the latter’s gaze was filled with coldness, frightening him into a pale-faced terror.
"Beast!"
At that moment, Atlas Dunn cursed at Tommy Dunn, "What nonsense are you saying? Even if you were eliminated by Wyatt in the Saint Martial Secret Realm, it only shows that you’re not as skilled as him! Who can you blame?"
If Tommy Dunn didn’t understand that his father was trying to help him out, then he was truly beyond cure.
"Father, it was my fault! I was foolish, and I am less skilled!"
Tommy Dunn hurriedly concurred.
Although knowing there was a lot of acting in Atlas and Tommy’s performance, since they had said things up to this point, not even Ryatt Morgan, the House Master of the Mysterious Void Mansion, could say much more.
"Tommy Dunn, although you’re now eliminated, at least you stayed inside for three days... so, did you gain any insights into the Divine Ability Relics in those three days?"
Augustine Landon looked at Tommy with a hint of schadenfreude and asked.
Augustine’s words poured into Tommy’s ears, adding fuel to the fire and causing his rage to surge, ready to explode at any moment.
However, Tommy Dunn also realized that with Augustine speaking, everyone present, including his father Atlas Dunn, had their eyes on him, seeming eager to know if he had comprehended the Divine Ability Relics.
"No!"
Tommy denied with gritted teeth. In just three days, how could he have comprehended the Divine Ability Relics?
In fact, he hadn’t even seen a trace of the Divine Ability Relics.
"That’s truly a pity."
Augustine sighed longly, sounding genuinely sorry for Tommy, but if one looked closely, they could notice that the gloating expression seemed to be even deeper in Augustine’s eyes.
"Wyatt!"
From start to finish, Withered observed the farce with cold eyes.
However, hearing the name "Wyatt," he couldn’t help but feel a ripple of interest in his heart, because the purpose of his trip was that young man.
To be precise, it was to confirm whether that young man was indeed the Junior House Master of the Mansion of Azure Clouds!
"Father! That Wyatt is too much; I want him dead, I must make him die!"
Tommy Dunn looked at Atlas Dunn, roaring through transmitted sound.
"Tommy, rest assured... He ruined your chance to comprehend the relic of divine abilities, which is a great humiliation and deep-seated hatred for our Dunn Family lineage! As long as our Dunn Family lineage exists, we will not let him live peacefully in this world."
When Atlas Dunn responded through transmitted sound, his tone was icy cold, as if it came from an icy cave, sending chills through anyone who heard it.
His son being kicked out of the Saint Martial Secret Realm by someone else, Atlas Dunn’s anger was no less than Tommy’s, the person involved.
It should be known that the opportunity to enter the Saint Martial Secret Realm comes only once in a disciple’s lifetime in the Mysterious Void Mansion.
Wyatt kicked his son out of the Saint Martial Secret Realm early, which also meant cutting off his son’s chance to comprehend the relic of divine abilities. "If it weren’t for that Wyatt, my son would have surely comprehended the advanced divine ability relic... Once the divine ability is recorded, he would have the chance to master it after breaking through to the Human Saint Realm."
"But now... everything has been ruined by that Wyatt!"
At this thought, the flames of hatred in the depths of Atlas Dunn’s eyes seemed to burn everything.
The situation outside the Saint Martial Secret Realm, Wyatt Barnes naturally did not know.
Now, he returned to the place where he had earlier discovered Tommy Dunn, only to find that the two Mystic Palace disciples were no longer there.
"They actually ran away... It seems they took my words as nothing."
Wyatt Barnes murmured softly, faintly smiling, but if listened to closely, there was a trace of chilling coldness in his laughter.
"This direction."
Immediately after, Wyatt Barnes set off again, this time heading in the direction previously led by the two Mystic Palace disciples.
Wyatt Barnes’s destination was the place those two mentioned, which allegedly hid some relic of divine abilities.
As he hurried, Wyatt Barnes activated the "Mysterious Eye," "Since even the passing Mystic Palace disciple could discover that place, with my Mysterious Eye activated for a close examination, it shouldn’t be too difficult to find that place."
Accelerating all the way on his journey, he still hadn’t found those two Mystic Palace disciples.
"They are clever indeed, not taking this road."
As time passed, Wyatt Barnes could easily surmise this.
Finally, after half a day, Wyatt Barnes’s Mysterious Eye finally discovered an unusual place—a vast stone forest.
At first, Wyatt Barnes thought it was just an ordinary stone forest, but when his Mysterious Eye examined it closely, he found it somewhat blurry... Yes, blurry indeed!
Generally speaking, this was impossible!
Wyatt Barnes knew well the capabilities of his Mysterious Eye; it could clearly see things at much farther distances, let alone this stone forest not far beneath his feet.
"There is something peculiar about this stone forest."
Upon discovering the unusualness of the stone forest, Wyatt Barnes immediately rushed in.
As he approached the stone forest, Wyatt Barnes’s extended Divine Sense clearly sensed the fluctuations of formations, which were extremely subtle; if not for Wyatt Barnes’s sharp perception, he might not have noticed them.
"What a superb formation!"
Just as Wyatt Barnes marveled, he found everything before him suddenly turned black.
The next moment, as light returned to his sight, he discovered a drastic change in the scene before him.
No longer was it the stone forest, but an open space, and beyond the open space was a six-story tower.
"Hmm?"
At the same time, Wyatt Barnes clearly sensed three breaths rapidly condensing.
A moment later, three identical Savage Beasts appeared out of nowhere in front of him.
These Savage Beasts, at first glance, looked somewhat like leopards, but upon a closer look, they were far more menacing than leopards.
Moreover, each had a silver horn on top of its head.
"Roar!"
"Roar—"
...
The three Savage Beasts almost simultaneously let out a furious roar, and in the next instant, they leaped out.
However, they did not pounce on Wyatt Barnes but rather around his body, forming a triangle, surrounding Wyatt Barnes inside.
"That place, for now, I’m the only one who has been... As soon as I entered, I encountered three powerful Little Saint Realm peak Savage Beasts, and they even instinctively knew the technique of combined assault. If I hadn’t escaped quickly, I could have fallen there."
At the same time, Wyatt Barnes recalled what the Mystic Palace disciple had said.
"It seems that this is indeed the place he was talking about... There are certainly more than one formation here; apart from the illusion formation outside, there are plenty of intersecting formations inside."
A thought flashed in Wyatt Barnes’s mind, confirming that this was the place he had been searching for.
"The relic of divine abilities, could it be inside the tower ahead?"
Then, his gaze fell on the tower in front of him.
