Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 2218: Hidden World Powerhouses

And almost at the same time the Six heirs of the Seven Terminating Sect descended into the world, the ’West Region’ of the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land was also not tranquil.

The matter of the Mysterious Buddha Sect’s group, led by their Supreme Elder ’Miss Langford’, heading to the Fire Worship Sect to confront the newly appointed Protector ’Wyatt Barnes’ has also spread widely.

"Hey! Have you heard? Upon knowing that Wyatt the Protector returned to the Holy Teaching, people from the Mysterious Buddha Sect came seeking revenge!"

"I’ve heard as well. It’s said that even the Supreme Elder of the Mysterious Buddha Sect, ranked second on our Martial Dao Sacred Land’s ’Extreme Saint Ranking’, personally came!"

"Without that person coming, no amount of people from the Mysterious Buddha Sect could take Wyatt the Protector away from the Holy Teaching!"

"Indeed. Now, the Sect Leader of the Holy Teaching’s cultivation has already reached the ’Ninth Transform of the Saint Immortal’. If the Supreme Elder of the Mysterious Buddha Sect doesn’t personally come, it makes no sense for others to come!"

"With the Mysterious Buddha Sect’s Sect Leader making a move, it clearly shows their determination to take Wyatt the Protector away this time!"

...

The West Region was in an uproar.

Many people felt concerned for their West Region Holy Teaching Fire Worship Sect’s ’Wyatt the Protector’.

After all, the ones coming this time from the Mysterious Buddha Sect were not ordinary people. It was their Supreme Elder, the second-ranked powerhouse on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking’, second only to the Martial Dao Sacred Land’s strongest ’Imran Nigel’.

Just as the people of the West Region were on tenterhooks because of Wyatt Barnes.

A piece of explosive news came from the Fire Worship Sect!

After the strong ones led by the Mysterious Buddha Sect’s Supreme Elder ’Miss Langford’ arrived, Wyatt the Protector and four other Protectors of the Holy Teaching, led by Sect Leader ’Lofty Don’, faced them head-on!

Miss Langford demanded Lofty Don to hand over Wyatt Barnes, but Lofty Don firmly refused, preferring to fight rather than surrender Wyatt the Protector!

Soon, the two Ninth Transform of the Saint Immortal powerhouses engaged in battle, fighting from near the Fire Worship Sect’s site to a far-off place.

For a time, the remaining five Protectors of the Fire Worship Sect and the Mysterious Buddha Sect’s Leader clashed fiercely, along with the two Great Dharma Kings from the Mysterious Buddha Sect.

At that moment, a helper invited by the Mysterious Buddha Sect revealed themselves!

This helper turned out to be ’Frede Howl’, ranked fifth on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking’, widely regarded as the number one person in the Martial Dao Sacred Land.

At this time, Frede Howl even drew out one of the ’Top Ten Sacred Artifact List’’s supreme artifacts, the ’Dharma Stick’!

The scales of victory tipped towards the Mysterious Buddha Sect.

...

As for what happened later with Wyatt Barnes defeating Frede Howl in one strike, it was vigorously spread across the ’West Region’.

When this matter spread, unsurprisingly, it sparked a commotion akin to an ’earthquake’!

"My goodness! Wyatt the Protector from the Holy Teaching is incredibly formidable! He single-handedly defeated Frede Howl, who possessed the supreme artifact Dharma Stick! Frede Howl was previously acknowledged as the ’Number One Below Ninth Transform of the Saint Immortal’ in our Martial Dao Sacred Land!"

"It’s said... If Wyatt the Protector hadn’t held back from pursuing and striking a fatal blow, Frede Howl would likely have died!"

"They say Wyatt the Protector refrained from delivering a killing blow because he knows powerful beings from the Demon Race in the Exile Land will soon invade the Upper Domain, so he doesn’t want humanity to lose more strong ones!"

"I’ve decided! From now on, Wyatt the Protector is my ’idol’!"

"Wyatt the Protector gained fame through one battle, set to replace Frede Howl, becoming the new fifth-ranked individual on the ’Extreme Saint Ranking’, and the new ’Number One Below Ninth Transform of the Saint Immortal’ in the Martial Dao Sacred Land!"

...

If previously, the name ’Wyatt Barnes’ was already renowned.

Then now, while ’Wyatt Barnes’ is famous in the West Region, it also earns him great respect!

We can imagine:

With these freshly spread news across the West Region and throughout the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, Wyatt Barnes will undoubtedly further earn the attention of the Upper Domain’s inhabitants, officially entering the ’pinnacle’ ranks of the Martial Dao Sacred Land Upper Domain! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Even though these matters haven’t completely spread, everything Wyatt Barnes did previously in the Martial Dao Sacred Land was by no means minor.

As in the ’loose cultivator realm’.

As Wyatt Barnes returned to the Fire Worship Sect, becoming the ’Fire Worship Sect Protector’, spreading across the entire Martial Dao Sacred Land Upper Domain also shocked and startled many loose cultivators.

In a single evening, the ’myth’ of Jagger Patel, loose cultivator realm’s acknowledged number one prodigy of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, was shattered!

The new ’Number One Prodigy of the Martial Dao Sacred Land’ was born:

The newly appointed Protector of the Fire Worship Sect, Wyatt Barnes!

The loose cultivator realm is also not unfamiliar with Wyatt Barnes.

Previously, when the supreme artifact ’Demon Sealing Monument’ appeared in the Lower Domain, it also caused quite a stir in the Upper Domain, attracting many loose cultivators to venture into the Lower Domain.

Because of this, loose cultivators also know much about Wyatt Barnes, aware that he is yet under fifty years old!

Under fifty years old, already serving as a Protector of the Fire Worship Sect.

And only those with the ’Seventh Transform of the Saint Immortal’ or higher could be Protectors of the Fire Worship Sect.

"It’s said that the newly appointed Protector of the Fire Worship Sect, Wyatt Barnes, is not just a typical Seventh Transform of the Saint Immortal... Even Ethan Tyler, formerly the head of the three Protectors of the Fire Worship Sect, admits inferiority to him!"

"You must know that Ethan Tyler, the Protector of the Fire Worship Sect, is a ’Saint Immortal of the Eighth Transformation’, not as powerful as Jagger Patel, but still a strong Saint Immortal, surpassing a crowd of Seventh Transformation Saint Immortals!"

"This shows that Wyatt Barnes’ strength, even if not quite up to Jagger Patel’s level, is not far behind... and he is not yet fifty years old!"

...

Even in the realm of loose cultivators, Wyatt Barnes’ talent and strength cannot be questioned. Based on his current achievements, he deserves the title ’Martial Dao Sacred Land’s First Genius’!

Even if Wyatt Barnes had some ’fortunate encounters’ to achieve today’s accomplishments.

In other words:

Jagger Patel, didn’t he also have ’fortunate encounters’?

Yet, the loose cultivator realm is unaware that an even more astonishing news is waiting to shock and astound them further!

When the time comes, they will know:

Even now, in terms of strength, the Protector ’Wyatt Barnes’ of the Fire Worship Sect has already surpassed Jagger Patel, previously recognized as the Martial Dao Sacred Land’s First Genius among loose cultivators!

Martial Dao Sacred Land’s Upper Domain, North Territory, somewhere.

North of the North Territory, the land is covered with snow year-round, turning some lake surfaces into thick solid ice, enough for normal walking.

On the broad lake surface turned to solid ice, a small wooden house stood quietly.

In front of the wooden house, a person was floating cross-legged.

This was a middle-aged man dressed in thin and tattered clothes, with a strong and tall build, wild hair draped over his shoulders, exuding an untamed and fierce aura.

The middle-aged man’s eyes were initially closed.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes abruptly, and his gaze immediately fell into the distance in the void.

There stood a tall and handsome young man dressed in blue, exuding an exceptionally sharp aura, as if he wasn’t a person but a ’blade’.

The young man’s long hair was tied back with a hairband, with a long ponytail hanging behind him, and on his back, he was carrying a sheathed long knife, the scabbard plain and unadorned.

The markings on the scabbard emitted an ancient and timeless aura, as if silently narrating to the surroundings:

Its existence has spanned long ages.

"Jagger Patel!"

Seeing the young man, the middle-aged man suddenly stood up, then soared into the air, quickly arriving in front of him.

The middle-aged man’s address revealed the young man’s identity:

He was evidently Jagger Patel, ranked ’seventh’ on the Extreme Saint Ranking!

"Winston Ward."

Jagger Patel looked at the middle-aged man, his expression extremely serious, "I came this time to see if I can withstand ten moves from you!"

Listening to Jagger Patel’s words:

He had engaged with the middle-aged man before, yet hadn’t made it past ten moves!

If this ’news’ spreads, it will undoubtedly cause a huge sensation...

Because even the former fifth-ranked loose cultivator on the Extreme Saint Ranking, Frede Howl, wouldn’t dare claim he could defeat Jagger Patel within ten moves!

Yet this middle-aged man, capable of defeating Jagger Patel within ten moves, nonetheless is unknown in the Martial Dao Sacred Land’s Upper Domain.

Not to mention the Extreme Saint Ranking’s top ten, even among the thousand names on the Extreme Saint Ranking, his name is absent.

Sufficient to illustrate:

He is a reclusive ’hidden expert’!

As a hidden expert, no matter how powerful, as long as he hasn’t showcased his skills publicly, his name wouldn’t spread and generally remains unknown.

Just like Jagger Patel a few years ago, once unveiled to the world, he rapidly ascended to the ’seventh’ rank on the Extreme Saint Ranking!

Before that, nobody knew of his existence, and his name was absent from among the thousand names on the Extreme Saint Ranking.

"Jagger Patel, I heard the Fire Worship Sect has produced a ’genius’, not yet fifty, possessing strength not inferior to a ’Saint Immortal of the Eighth Transformation’... Your title of ’Martial Dao Sacred Land’s First Genius’ has been usurped."

The middle-aged man ’Winston Ward’ didn’t rush to respond to Jagger Patel but instead teased him.

"Hmph!"

Upon hearing Winston Ward’s words, Jagger Patel snorted, "One mountain always has one taller... I never considered myself the ’Martial Dao Sacred Land’s First Genius’!"

"Don’t be too modest... Before that kid from the Fire Worship Sect appeared, you indeed deserved the title of ’Martial Dao Sacred Land’s First Genius’!"

Winston Ward shook his head and laughed.

Ching!

Accompanied by a light sound, Jagger Patel drew the blade from his back, pointing it at Winston Ward, and solemnly said, "Make your move!"
