Chapter 1770: Chapter 1770: Six Harmonies Tower
Almost the instant Wyatt Barnes’s gaze fell on the tower, the three savage beasts surrounding him in a triangular formation suddenly erupted with a frenzy, charging straight at him as if invigorated.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The three sounds of wind-breaking drew closer to Wyatt Barnes in the blink of an eye.
Wyatt quickly realized that the attacks of the three savage beasts, which seemed to act independently, somehow connected invisibly, giving the impression of a seamless joint effort.
It was as if they were the Array Foundation, combining into a ’fusion attack formation.’
Facing the simultaneous assault from the three savage beasts, Wyatt felt as if he was confronting a single Middle Saint Realm early-stage savage beast.
One must know, these were just three Little Saint Realm peak savage beasts!
"What a mysterious fusion technique..."
Surprised, Wyatt did not remain idle. Moving swiftly, he easily evaded the attacks of the three savage beasts.
Even if the three savage beasts were as strong as an early Middle Saint Realm savage beast, they posed little threat to Wyatt. With his current strength, he could even defeat a typical early-stage Great Saint Realm savage beast!
Initially, Wyatt wanted to observe the intricacies of the three beasts’ fusion attack, but he soon discovered that the mystery of the technique seemed to stem from their very nature, imperceptible from the outside. Instantly, he abandoned the thought of ’learning’ it.
"I’m done playing with you."
Murmuring softly, Wyatt’s True Origin surged from his body, and in an instant, thousands of golden sword lights burst out from his form.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
...
Under the rain of rapidly shooting sword lights, the three savage beasts were quickly riddled like beehives.
Unlike the savage beasts Wyatt encountered outside, these three did not bleed after being riddled with holes but instead vaporized into the air, disappearing as if they had never existed.
At the moment Wyatt killed the three savage beasts, the distant tower trembled.
Soon after, the only door of the entire tower, the stone door at the bottom floor, gradually opened, emitting a series of dull sounds.
"Let’s go inside and take a look."
With a thought, Wyatt’s entire being transformed into a lightning bolt, darting into the tower.
To be precise, he entered the first level of the tower.
Once inside, Wyatt’s vision blurred, and before him was a wide floor, with a staircase at the far end leading to the tower’s second level.
Of course, to say this floor was empty did not mean there was nothing but the staircase. There were also two statues.
They were two statues standing together, but posed in a confronting stance against each other.
"These two statues..."
Wyatt’s gaze fell on the statues, and upon closer inspection, he discovered something astonishing.
Both statues had robust human bodies, but their heads were not human; they were of a ’mouse’ and a ’horse’!
After circling the statues once and finding nothing unusual about them, Wyatt dismissed it and moved toward the staircase leading to the next floor.
And just as Wyatt headed toward the staircase, something suddenly changed!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
Amid a ground-shaking tremor, Wyatt felt his body swaying with the tower.
Immediately, two rapid wind-breaking sounds emerged from behind him.
One of the wind-breaking sounds was exceedingly cunning.
The other was extremely swift.
Woosh!
With a quick flash, Wyatt disappeared from his original spot and reappeared not far away.
Simultaneously, after the flash, Wyatt turned around in time to find that the mouse-faced human statue and the horse-faced human statue had ’come to life’ and changed from vying against each other to unanimously cooperating against him.
After their initial attack failed, the mouse-faced and horse-faced statues naturally launched a second assault.
The attack of the mouse-faced statue leaned toward cunning.
The attack of the horse-faced statue leaned toward speed.
Perfectly matching the characteristics of a ’mouse’ and a ’horse.’
"But they are too weak, aren’t they?"
Under Wyatt’s Mysterious Eye, the two animated statues moved painfully slow. Based on Wyatt’s estimation, their strength was at most early Little Saint Realm.
Much weaker than the three savage beasts he encountered outside the tower!
Swish! Swish!
With a single thought from Wyatt, two golden sword lights appeared, like two dazzling suns. In no time, they pierced through the top of the two statues, swirling inside them chaotically.
Moments later, they finally could not sustain any longer, collapsing with a crash into piles of rubble.
"Too weak."
Shaking his head, Wyatt directly proceeded toward the staircase leading to the next layer, though this time, he became much more cautious thanks to his prior experience.
However, he quickly realized he was being too cautious.
All the way, until he reached the second level of the tower, he did not encounter any obstacles.
The second level of the tower, like the first, was spacious, with only a stairway leading to the third level, and two statues.
The two statues faced each other, confronting one another, just like the two statues on the first level.
"Bull face? Sheep face?"
Wyatt Barnes soon discovered that the heads of these two statues were the heads of a bull and a sheep, "Bull-faced Human, Sheep-faced Human... The first level had Rat-faced Human and Horse-faced Human. Also, before they activated, they were antagonistic toward each other..."
"Bull and Sheep, Rat and Horse... Could it be..."
Murmuring to himself, Wyatt’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Could it be ’Six Conflicts’?"
Wyatt remembered, on Earth in his previous life, in his homeland, that ancient eastern country, there was always the concept of ’Metaphysics’.
’Six Conflicts’ is a kind of metaphysics, talking about the clashes of the zodiac signs.
There are a total of twelve zodiac signs, each pair conflicts, thus forming the ’Six Conflicts’.
"It should be. The first level is ’Rat’ and ’Ox’, the second level is ’Bull’ and ’Sheep’, Rat and Ox conflict, Bull and Sheep conflict... The third level, if I’m not mistaken, should be Tiger and Monkey conflict; the fourth level, should be Rabbit and Rooster conflict; the fifth level, should be Dragon and Dog conflict; the sixth level, should be Snake and Pig conflict."
In an instant, Wyatt figured out many things.
"It seems, within this tower, it also contains the mystery of the ’Six Conflicts’."
Wyatt thought to himself.
Regaining his senses, Wyatt walked towards the stairway to the third level, in the process, successfully activating the two statues on the second level, the Sheep-faced Human statue and the Bull-faced Human statue.
Compared to the two statues on the first level of the tower, the strength of these two statues was yet another level higher, both at the mid-stage of the Little Saint Realm.
However, in front of Wyatt, mid-stage and early-stage Little Saint Realm were no different, he could easily eliminate them.
Just as Wyatt predicted, on the third level of the tower, he encountered the Tiger-faced Human statue and the Monkey-faced Human statue, their strength yet another level higher, both at the late-stage of the Little Saint Realm.
The fourth level of the tower had the Rabbit-faced Human statue and the Rooster-faced Human statue, both at the peak of the Little Saint Realm.
The fifth level of the tower had the Dragon-faced Human statue and the Dog-faced Human statue, both at the early stage of the Middle Saint Realm.
The Snake-faced Human and Pig-faced Human statues on the sixth level of the tower, were both at the mid-stage of the Middle Saint Realm... Together, even an average mid-stage Middle Saint Realm martial artist might not gain an advantage over them.
However, in front of Wyatt, they were nothing.
"This is already the final level of the tower... Where is the Divine Ability Relic?"
As he watched the Snake-faced Human statue and Pig-faced Human statue turn into heaps of rubble, Wyatt’s heart stirred, his gaze began sweeping over the final level of the tower.
Almost as soon as this thought crossed his mind, accompanied by a ripple in the void, an enormous statue emerged from thin air.
Around its body, earthy yellow halos flickered, giving off a feeling of being as solid as a mountain.
"What is this?"
Seeing this, Wyatt couldn’t help but be taken aback.
And at this moment, the colossal statue moved, clumsy as it was, it moved as swiftly as the passing wind.
In the blink of an eye, it was in front of Wyatt, a giant foot lifted and descended upon him like lightning.
If it were anyone else, being stomped in this way would surely turn them into a pulp!
Facing the aggressive foot of the colossal statue, Wyatt advanced instead of retreating, flying up, his hands landing on the giant foot, followed by the sun True Origin within him surging out without reservation, converging on his hands.
Instantly, Wyatt’s hands seemed to be endowed with endless great power.
Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!
...
With a shake of his hands, Wyatt grabbed the giant foot of the colossal statue, and suddenly swung it around, spinning it like a windmill.
Finally, as if bored with the play, Wyatt let go, allowing it to crash into the wall of the sixth level of the tower.
Boom!!
With a loud sound, the wall of the sixth level of the tower remained unscathed, while the colossal statue was also unharmed.
"Such strong defense!"
Seeing this, Wyatt was greatly surprised, if it were an ordinary late-stage Middle Saint Realm martial artist being thrown like this, they would at least be crippled if not dead.
But the colossal statue with late-stage Middle Saint Realm strength in front of him was surprisingly unscathed!
The colossal statue got up and charged at Wyatt once more.
"Big guy, take my sword!"
Wyatt called out softly, raising his hand as sun True Origin sprayed from his palm, transforming into a dazzling golden three-foot sword.
Wyatt moved like a dandelion, the sword moving with him, moments later, it was already close to the colossal statue, the sword flashing out like lightning, pointing directly at the colossal statue’s head.
Ding!!
Originally thinking one sword could easily pierce through the colossal statue’s head, Wyatt soon realized he thought too much, the earthy yellow halos flickering around the statue seemed like an extremely sturdy defense, blocking his sword from entering.
"Good heavens!"
Seeing this, Wyatt was naturally greatly surprised, and then he noticed something unusual, "The earthy yellow halos on its surface don’t seem to be just its power... nor do they seem like a defensive martial arts technique! Could it be... could it be ’Divine Ability’?!"
