Chapter 2562: Chapter 2562: Sanders Residence

Although, with Wyatt Barnes’s current strength, killing a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal is not difficult.

But once a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal unleashes a soul attack a step ahead of him, even if Wyatt can still kill that Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, after killing him, he still has no way to stop the other party’s soul attack.

Because a soul attack cannot be resisted with attacks unleashed using the power within one’s own body.

To a certain extent, the latter can only be considered a "material attack," something completely different from a soul attack.

The two will never intersect.

But now that Wyatt Barnes has that unfathomably mysterious "incomplete iron shard," things are different.

Even if it’s a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal who has cultivated a Soul Gathering body, if he unleashes a soul attack on Wyatt, Wyatt can lightning-fast take out the incomplete iron shard, block the soul attack the other party unleashes, and let the shard perform its Swallowing Technique on the soul attack...

That way, the other party’s soul attack won’t even be able to touch him!

"Third Uncle... thank you."

Drawing in a deep breath and slowly returning to himself, Wyatt Barnes suddenly raised his head, gazing up at the heavens. In a low murmur, he voiced his gratitude toward that powerhouse from the Divine Ruin Lands, Ernest Summer.

The Seven Stars Exquisite Sword was the divine weapon Ernest Summer left to him.

Although it no longer possessed the might it once had as a Heavenly Artifact, it was still enough to rival a top-grade Immortal Artifact and was of tremendous help to him.

The incomplete iron shard, though not given to him directly by Ernest Summer, could also be considered something Ernest Summer indirectly gave him.

Because if not for that dark green Jade Slip Ernest Summer gave him, he never could have found that black stone, and even less could have fused the two into that incomplete iron shard.

"I wonder... how they’re doing now."

As he gradually came back to himself, thinking of how he was now near his hometown, "Breeze Town," a faint smile surfaced on Wyatt Barnes’s face as he soared into the air and headed for Breeze Town at the first possible moment.

When he saw the thriving Lee Family of Breeze Town, and saw that the old acquaintances of the Lee Family were all doing well, the smile on his face grew even more brilliant.

After leaving Breeze Town, he went to Aurora City, went to Swallow Mountain County City, and went to the Crimson Heaven Kingdom’s Imperial City...

Seeing that his old acquaintances were all doing well, he didn’t disturb their peaceful lives and left quietly.

After leaving the Crimson Heaven Kingdom’s Imperial City, Wyatt Barnes went to the Green Forest Royal Country, and went to the "Seven Stars Sword Clan."

The Seven Stars Sword Clan was also the first Sect he had joined in this lifetime, and his feelings for it ran deep.

This Sect had at one point even been wiped out.

However, thanks to his efforts, the Seven Stars Sword Clan finally managed to be rebuilt, and even developed very well, becoming the number one Sect in the Green Forest Royal Country.

Who could have imagined:

That unremarkable purple-clad youth who had joined the Seven Stars Sword Clan decades ago, after just a few decades, already possessed strength that was invincible across the entire Holy Domain Plane!

"In the blink of an eye, decades have passed... In these decades, times have changed, and oceans have turned to mulberry fields..."

Hovering in the air above the Seven Stars Sword Clan’s station, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help letting out a sigh, and only then quietly left.

After leaving the Seven Stars Sword Clan, Wyatt Barnes left the Green Forest Royal Country as well.

After visiting a few more "old friends," he finally left the region of the Ten Great Dynasties, departed from the Cloud Skies Continent, and returned once more to the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

Rip!

With a lift of his hand, he tore open space, leaving behind a spatial rift in the void, and then, with a single flicker of his figure, Wyatt disappeared from the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

When he appeared again, he was already in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

After arriving in the Upper Domain, he went to the middle territory at the first opportunity, went to "Sin City," and visited the friends he had come to know in the past.

Cody Yellow, a disciple of the Human Demon Clan’s Sacred Wander Palace, and Vast Johnson, the Sacred Wander Palace’s Palace Master who had once acknowledged him as his master.

"Wy... Wyatt brother, congratulations."

When he saw Wyatt Barnes again, even though he knew Wyatt wouldn’t look down on him as a friend just because he had attained his present strength and status, Cody Yellow still couldn’t help feeling somewhat restrained.

This was a subconscious restraint...

After all, Wyatt Barnes was no longer the man he had once been!

Now, even if one called Wyatt Barnes the "number one powerhouse of the Holy Domain Plane," no one would refute it.

"Thank you."

Wyatt Barnes nodded with a smile in response, then looked at Cody Yellow and asked, "So? These years... have you been doing well?"

"Yes."

Seeing that Wyatt Barnes could still care about him like this, Cody Yellow couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.

"That’s good."

Wyatt Barnes nodded, then turned his gaze to Vast Johnson beside Cody Yellow, greeting him with a faint smile. "Palace Master Johnson, we haven’t seen each other for a long time either."

"Master, just call me Little Johnson... In your presence, I’m really not worthy of, really not worthy of the title ’Palace Master’..."

Hearing how Wyatt Barnes addressed him, Vast Johnson was so frightened that his body trembled, and he almost dropped to his knees on the ground.

"What about Angelo Yellow? She didn’t come?"

Wyatt Barnes swept a glance behind Vast Johnson and Cody Yellow and asked somewhat unexpectedly.

"Sister Isabella... just happens to be in seclusion recently."

Cody Yellow said.

He naturally could not tell Wyatt Barnes that Angelo Yellow hadn’t come to Sin City because she didn’t want to see Wyatt and his wife together as a loving couple...

Wyatt Barnes chatted for a while with Cody Yellow and Vast Johnson, left each of them a token so they could go to the Romero Tribe for help if needed, and only then did he leave Sin City.

At the same time, he was preparing to leave the Holy Domain Plane.

Last time he went to the Romero Tribe, he had given them two supreme Immortal Treasures, and everyone in the tribe regarded him as a benefactor who had practically recreated the Romero Tribe. They had gifted him a good number of feathers that were extremely rare even to tribe members, to be used as tokens.

The Romero Tribe had promised:

In the future, whenever someone came to them with a feather, the tribe would treat that person as they would Wyatt Barnes himself, helping with anything without refusal!

Just now, what Wyatt Barnes had left with Cody Yellow and Vast Johnson were exactly two of those feathers that were incomparably precious to the Romero Tribe members.

...

"Outer Heaven Secret Realm!"

Leaving the Holy Domain Plane and arriving once more in the Outer Heaven Secret Realm, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help feeling as if a lifetime had passed.

He found someone from the Yanhuang Plane and had him point the way, and very soon Wyatt returned to the Yanhuang Plane.

"Right now... Wally Sanders, and Walter Simmons, should have already left the Outer Heaven Secret Realm and gone back to the ’Sanders Residence’, right?"

With that thought, Wyatt Barnes took out the Purple Gold Token Wally Sanders had given him back then, letting it guide him to the location of the Sanders Residence.

The Sanders Residence, on the Yanhuang Plane, was a very low‑key hidden power.

Ordinary people, even if they had heard the name Sanders Residence, had no idea where it was located.

"So now... I’ve actually become a ’Famous Person’ on the Yanhuang Plane?"

On the way toward the Sanders Residence, Wyatt Barnes kept hearing all kinds of "rumors" about himself.

Those rumors all revolved around the matter of him killing the Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal Elder Ancestor of Heavenly Wave Residence back then.

Many people even felt that the Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal Elder Ancestor of Heavenly Wave Residence had died unjustly...

They all said that if that Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal from Heavenly Wave Residence had known from the start that Wyatt Barnes was only a "half-step immortal", he could have completely killed Wyatt with a soul attack!

Wyatt Barnes only smiled faintly at this and didn’t take it to heart.

Back then, he had precisely banked on that Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal from Heavenly Wave Residence not daring to casually use his Divine Sense to probe someone who suspectedly might be a "Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal", and that was why he’d waited there so calmly for the other party to show up...

Otherwise, he would have already gone knocking on their door himself and killed the other party before he could react!

In that case, even if the other party had known beforehand that he was only a half-step immortal, there would have been no time to unleash a soul attack on him.

"How much longer do I have to keep flying?"

A month later, Wyatt Barnes was still on the road.

Because he didn’t know where exactly the "Sanders Residence" was, Wyatt had no way to use the interstellar teleportation arrays between star systems to travel. He could only hold the token the Sanders Residence had given him back then and traverse the void with his physical body to rush on his way.

After an entire month of traveling at full speed, he still hadn’t reached the Sanders Residence.

One had to know that with his current speed, a month’s time was enough for him to traverse the void from the remote Milky Way Galaxy all the way to the Cost Star System...

After another two months of nonstop travel, Wyatt Barnes finally arrived at the place where the Sanders Residence was located.

Although the Sanders Residence was a hidden power, as a top-tier force at the very pinnacle of the first echelon on the Yanhuang Plane, it still controlled a fairly large star system.

Guided by the Purple Gold Token, Wyatt Barnes arrived on the mother star of the star system under the Sanders Residence’s rule, and came to the outside of the Sanders Residence’s Inner Residence station.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

He had barely come to a stop outside the Inner Residence station of the Sanders Residence when his vision blurred, and a patrol squad from the Sanders Residence had already intercepted him in front.

"Who are you? For what purpose have you come to the Inner Residence station of my Sanders Residence?"

The patrol captain at the head of the group fixed Wyatt Barnes with a cold look and asked by rote.

"My name is ’Wyatt Barnes’... I’ve come this time to look for Brother Wally Sanders. I wonder, has Brother Wally already returned from the Outer Heaven Secret Realm?"

Wyatt Barnes spoke politely.

After all, he was here to look for someone, not to cause trouble!

"Wyatt Barnes?!"

Almost as soon as the words left Wyatt’s mouth, the eyes of every member of the Sanders Residence patrol squad, whether it was the captain at their head or the rest of the patrol disciples, all contracted sharply, clearly quite shocked.

The patrol captain at the head was the first to react, sizing Wyatt Barnes up from head to toe...

Purple robes, young, handsome.

These were all "traits" of that Wyatt Barnes from the rumors.

"That’s... the Purple Gold Token?"

Very soon, the patrol captain saw the token in Wyatt Barnes’s hand and, in that instant, completely confirmed Wyatt’s identity.

The coldness in his eyes vanished, replaced by burning heat. He bent at the waist with a deeply respectful bow toward Wyatt. "I pay my respects to Lord Wyatt Barnes!"

"I pay my respects to Lord Wyatt Barnes!"

"I pay my respects to Lord Wyatt Barnes!"

...

Seeing their captain bow to Wyatt Barnes, the rest of the patrol disciples hastily followed suit and bowed as well.
