"Wyatt Barnes? Is that Wyatt Barnes?"
"So, he is the one under a hundred years old, yet recognized as the number one top-grade alchemist in the Eastern and Southern Six Territories?"
"Is he the target that Elder Ancestor Maximus Lee went to Desolate Territory to deal with before leaving our Sect? He’s actually still alive? And he came to our Joyous Zen Sect with Killian Diaz?"
"This... what on earth is going on? Killian, how could you bring him back with you?"
...
As they guessed Wyatt Barnes’ ’identity’, the high-ranking members of Joyous Zen Sect were in an uproar.
Among their conversations, none understood why Wyatt was at their Joyous Zen Sect base.
Moreover, he was with their Joyous Zen Sect’s Buddhist Child, Killian Diaz.
"Are you the chief alchemist of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, Wyatt Barnes?"
At the same time, Sect Leader Zamir Mullins of Joyous Zen Sect temporarily suppressed his anger towards Killian and coldly looked at Wyatt Barnes, asking in a stern voice.
"According to Killian... it’s you people who have unanimously decided to kill me?"
Facing Zamir Mullins’ question, Wyatt Barnes did not respond, but instead asked rhetorically in a calm tone.
"How are you here? Was my master killed by your people?"
Seeing Wyatt Barnes here now, and thinking of Killian’s unusual behavior, an ominous premonition arose in Zamir Mullins’ heart.
"No."
Wyatt Barnes answered Zamir Mullins’ question this time, shaking his head in denial.
"No?"
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, Zamir Mullins seriously eyed Wyatt and seemed to see no lie in his gaze.
For a moment, his tense heart relaxed significantly.
"Your Elder Ancestor Maximus Lee, overestimating his own strength, tried to kill Alchemist Barnes... but in the end, Alchemist Barnes killed him instead!"
At the same moment, Killian Diaz spoke up, as if in a moment, completely changing sides!
As Killian’s words fell, the whole scene went dead silent.
Even the many Joyous Zen Sect disciples who came to catch the excitement were stunned by Killian’s words.
The people of Joyous Zen Sect looked at each other, speechless.
Finally, it was an old monk in a silver robe behind Sect Leader Zamir Mullins who snapped back first and looked at Killian with a cold sneer saying:
"Killian, you really think we’re three-year-olds?"
"Saying that this brat under a hundred years old killed Elder Ancestor Maximus Lee? Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous!"
In the end, the old monk still showed disbelief.
"Insane! Killian’s really gone insane!"
"When he said he wanted to leave our Joyous Zen Sect earlier, I thought he was crazy... Now it looks like he really is crazy!"
"I really don’t know what kind of blow he suffered, to be spouting such nonsense... A brat under a hundred years old, achieving Love Rowan Upper Immortal would be impressive enough. And such a person killed Elder Ancestor Maximus Lee? Only a fool would believe that!"
...
Moments later, more and more people of Joyous Zen Sect snapped back, and after doing so, they all thought Killian had gone mad!
"I’ve gone mad?"
Hearing these words, Killian inwardly sneered but did not explain anything.
Because he knew:
No matter how much he explained, it was useless. Before this Alchemist Barnes in front acted, his former peers would never believe that this Alchemist Barnes had the power to kill Maximus.
"I am confronting Joyous Zen Sect like this, cooperating with this Alchemist Barnes in such a way... I only hope that after destroying the foundation of Joyous Zen Sect, he will spare my life."
Killian’s gaze fell on the purple figure in front of him, praying inwardly.
After all, the person in front could decide his life or death in a single thought!
"Noisy!"
The disdainful voices of the Joyous Zen Sect people reaching Wyatt Barnes’ ears made him impatient, and he followed with a cold shout.
This cold shout embedded with profound Immortal Origin swept across a thousand meters’ range, encompassing all spectators of Joyous Zen Sect.
Instantly, terrifying sound waves spread through the void, rippling like waves, constantly echoing within the thousand meters’ area...
And this was Wyatt Barnes intentionally controlling the range of the sound waves to remain within a thousand meters, to ensure their destructive power.
The next moment.
"Ah—"
"Wah!!"
"Puh—"
...
In Wyatt Barnes’ wake, waves of miserable screams and sounds of spitting blood rose and fell one after the other.
The owners of these sounds were none other than the high officials of Joyous Zen Sect.
As for those Joyous Zen Sect disciples, they all bled from their orifices, and then bodies fell from the sky like rain.
"Dead?!"
"All dead?!"
...
At this moment, including Sect Leader Zamir Mullins, several high-ranking members of Joyous Zen Sect swept their Divine Sense to discover that all the Joyous Zen Sect disciples who gathered to watch had perished.
Among these disciples, the strongest were at the peak of Love Rowan Upper Immortal, yet none survived!
Now, the only survivors were these high-ranking members of Joyous Zen Sect, those above Immortal Lord level...
Moreover, many high-ranking members with weaker cultivation had their eardrums shattered, with some bleeding from their orifices, though not fatally injured.
With just one ’Noisy’, sound waves swept across and killed all Joyous Zen Sect disciples watching the fun!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
...
At this moment, beneath Sect Leader Zamir Mullins, the faces of the high-ranking members of the Bliss Zen Sect changed collectively once more.
Their gazes towards Wyatt Barnes were filled with intense fear and apprehension.
Now, even Zamir Mullins, a Nine Palaces Immortal Lord, looked at Wyatt with deep apprehension.
Although he could create such a destructive sound wave as Wyatt just did.
He admitted that even if he could produce such a sound wave, it would be far less effortless than the purple-robed youth before him...
"His strength is absolutely stronger than mine!"
"Even a typical Ten Directions Immortal Lord would likely be weaker than him!"
"Could it be... he’s already a ’Semi-immortal King’?!"
In this flash of lightning and thunder, several thoughts flashed across Zamir Mullins’ mind, even speculating that Wyatt might be a Semi-immortal King.
"It seems Master was likely killed by him."
Seeing Wyatt’s means, even Zamir Mullins no longer dismissed Killian Diaz’s words as he had earlier.
As Zamir Mullins and the high-ranking members of the Bliss Zen Sect looked at Wyatt Barnes with fear and apprehension, the atmosphere grew tense.
Boom!!
Rumble!!
...
Suddenly, a series of earth-shattering booms reverberated throughout the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence, causing the area to shake once more.
"What’s going on?"
"What’s happening now?"
...
Disciples fortunate enough not to gather around Wyatt’s excitement were stunned as the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence trembled.
Boom!!
Rumble!!
...
Unlike the previous commotion caused by Love Rowan’s death, this disturbance lasted for a long time.
Even Wyatt Barnes and the others noticed.
"This commotion..."
Wyatt’s gaze quickly fell upon the depths of the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence, and his Divine Sense extended to encompass that area.
"Interesting."
After a moment, the corners of Wyatt’s mouth curved into a subtle smile.
As if he’d discovered something amusing.
Boom!!
Rumble!!
...
The tremors at the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence lasted for a full quarter of an hour before finally subsiding.
"Hahaha..."
"Hahahahaha..."
After the rumbling quieted down, a burst of hearty laughter emerged from the depths of the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence.
"I, Bellamy Lee, have finally broken through to the ’Immortal King’ level!"
Following the laughter, a resonant and aged voice spread throughout the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence.
Immediately, the sect fell into dead silence once more.
Until moments later, the sect erupted in excitement:
"Did... did I hear wrong? Elder Ancestor Bellamy said... he broke through to Immortal King level?"
"Elder Ancestor Bellamy achieved Immortal King status?"
"Our Bliss Zen Sect hasn’t seen an Immortal King for millennia, right?"
...
For the first time in a thousand years, the Bliss Zen Sect witnessed the emergence of an Immortal King.
"Master Bellamy... broke through to Immortal King level?"
Zamir Mullins, previously fearful of Wyatt’s potential as a ’Semi-immortal King’, now gazed brightly, eyes gleaming.
Earlier, he pondered:
If Wyatt Barnes was indeed a Semi-immortal King, their Elder Ancestor might not even be able to defeat him...
He might not even be an opponent!
But now, his Master Bellamy broke through to ’Immortal King’, filling him with excitement and clearing his mind of any gloom.
"Killian is back?"
Then, a powerful Divine Sense swept across the Bliss Zen Sect’s residence, and that resonant, aged voice sounded again.
Evidently, the voice’s owner’s Divine Sense had detected Killian Diaz.
"Alchemist Barnes... the owner of that voice is Bliss Zen Sect’s other Elder Ancestor, Bellamy Lee."
Killian Diaz promptly explained to Wyatt Barnes.
His eyes showing signs of panic and apprehension as he continued, "He now... seems to have... seems to have broken through to ’Immortal King’ level!"
As he finished speaking, Killian’s gaze tightened, fixed firmly on Wyatt Barnes.
Afraid he might see fear in Wyatt’s eyes, which would mean:
Wyatt Barnes couldn’t handle Bellamy Lee, who’d broken through to Immortal King...
And that was what he feared most!
