Elder Spacewood of the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect was a peer of Infinite Buckingham, the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect Sect Leader who had committed suicide, and he had even competed with Infinite Buckingham for the position of Sect Leader before.
However, because in all aspects he was inferior to Infinite Buckingham, he ultimately missed the chance to become the Sect Leader of the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect.
That became an obsession for nearly half his life.
He never expected that one day he would have the opportunity to sit in the seat of the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect Sect Leader...
At this moment, he felt even more grateful towards Wyatt Barnes, the Tai Yi Immortal Sect’s chief alchemist who had previously descended forcefully upon their Xuan Tian Immortal Sect.
Even though this was unintentional on the other’s part, it truly gave him an opportunity.
And all of this, Wyatt Barnes naturally didn’t know.
For Wyatt Barnes, his trip to the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect was merely to demand justice for the elder Beckham Ho of the Tai Yi Immortal Sect.
Now, Infinite Buckingham, the Sect Leader of the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect, and Preston Buckingham, the Junior Sect Master of the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect, had both died. Even if Beckham Ho’s spirit were to see this from above, it could rest in peace.
"Alchemist Barnes, on behalf of the entire Tai Yi Immortal Sect, I thank you for avenging our elder!"
As Wyatt Barnes unleashed his Immortal Origin and left the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect’s location with Leilany and Cain Iron, Cain Iron bowed and thanked Wyatt Barnes first, with deep gratitude in his voice.
Though Wyatt Barnes was now considered part of the Tai Yi Immortal Sect to some extent, he was still just a Sacrificial Officer of the Tai Yi Immortal Sect.
For a sacrificial officer, avenging their elder Beckham Ho was a kindness, not a duty.
Therefore, Cain Iron was genuinely grateful for Wyatt Barnes’s actions earlier.
"Elder Iron, you overstate; I am still a Sacrificial Officer of the Tai Yi Immortal Sect. Avenging the elder is within my duty, no need for thanks."
Wyatt Barnes smiled lightly and said, "Moreover, the actions of the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect regarding the elder are truly contemptible."
As he finished speaking, without waiting for Cain Iron to respond, Wyatt Barnes’s eyes flashed brightly as he continued, "Elder Iron, next I must trouble you to take Leilany and me to the Universal Domain, to the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect!"
The Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect would be his final stop on this trip.
After this stop, he planned to leave the Southeast Six Domains, and even depart from the entire border area, heading to the central land.
There, it would be his all-new stage!
"Yes, Alchemist Barnes."
Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s words, Cain Iron quickly accepted the order, his demeanor more respectful than when facing the Tai Yi Immortal Sect Sect Leader.
After witnessing Wyatt Barnes’s strength, Cain Iron developed a profound respect for Wyatt Barnes.
Now, after Wyatt Barnes avenged their elder Beckham Ho, Cain Iron respected Wyatt Barnes even more.
From then on, Cain Iron was responsible for leading Wyatt Barnes and Leilany as they traveled.
Of course, Cain Iron didn’t know that Wyatt Barnes had him lead the journey because he wanted to conserve his Immortal Origin within his body.
After all, the Immortal Origin within him was comparable to that of an Immortal King and came from a consumable Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact.
Unless necessary, he wouldn’t consume his Immortal Origin lightly.
Cain Iron only thought that Wyatt Barnes wanted to continue contemplating Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities during the journey.
"Now, the Immortal Origin in my body is greatly depleted... If before going to the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect, my strength was enough to rival Eight Star Immortal Kings."
"Then now, my strength can at most rival Six Star Immortal Kings."
"This time, after arriving at the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, I must conserve as much Immortal Origin as possible... Otherwise, before reaching the central land, my Immortal Origin might be completely depleted to its original state."
As Cain Iron led them away from Crossing Region, heading to the Universal Domain, Wyatt Barnes pondered secretly.
Cain Iron, after all, was merely a Seven Stars Immortal Lord. Leading Wyatt Barnes and Leilany away from Crossing Region to the Universal Domain’s Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect required some time.
So, during the journey, Wyatt Barnes, besides occasional chats with Leilany, spent most of his time cultivating.
Of course, his cultivation now couldn’t enhance his current strength. What he could improve was only the strength he had prior to utilizing the consumable Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact.
As Cain Iron led Wyatt Barnes and Leilany away from Crossing Region, heading to the Universal Domain and to the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect.
The Happy Zen Sect was also not peaceful.
The disciples of the Happy Zen Sect, who initially only noticed disturbances without knowing the specifics, later learned the details from the surviving disciples present at the scene.
"Wyatt Barnes, chief alchemist of the Tai Yi Immortal Sect, forcefully descended upon our Happy Zen Sect, and subsequently killed Elder Thaddeus?"
"Elder Thaddeus... wasn’t he promoted to the level of an Immortal King? This... this must be a joke?"
"Elder Ancestor Bellamy Lee indeed broke through and achieved Immortal King... but that Chief Alchemist of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, Wyatt Barnes, is an even more powerful Immortal King than Elder Ancestor Bellamy Lee, effortlessly killing Elder Ancestor Bellamy Lee who had achieved Immortal King!"
"Oh my god... Isn’t that unbelievable? Wasn’t it said that Wyatt Barnes is not even a hundred years old?"
"That’s precisely what’s most terrifying about Wyatt Barnes..."
"All the high-level members of our Joyful Zen Sect were killed by Wyatt Barnes, and the few remaining high-level members outside aren’t enough to support the current Joyful Zen Sect... After this battle, our Joyful Zen Sect will likely be delisted from the top sects in the Southeast Six Regions, and even the entire border area!"
"Don’t even mention that those high-level members of our Joyful Zen Sect who were lucky to survive outside aren’t enough to support our sect... even if our Joyful Zen Sect has hidden Semi-Immortal King ancestors in the Southeast Six Regions, and even the border area, do you think they’ll dare to come out and take charge to revive the Joyful Zen Sect?"
"Yeah... our Joyful Zen Sect’s situation this time is different from the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect back then. Although the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect was almost wiped out back then, their hidden Semi-Immortal King powerhouses were enough to turn the tide, so they stepped out to revive the sect. But this time, even Elder Ancestor Bellamy Lee, who broke through to the Immortal King level, is dead. Even if there are hidden Semi-Immortal King powerhouses in the Southeast Six Regions, and even the border area, dare they come out?"
"Certainly not!"
"Isn’t that obvious? The moment Elder Ancestor Bellamy Lee broke through to achieve the Immortal King level, he was already stronger than any possible hidden Semi-Immortal King powerhouses of our Joyful Zen Sect... Even Elder Ancestor Bellamy Lee is dead, and if they step forward to revive the Joyful Zen Sect, they also risk being killed by Wyatt Barnes, so they definitely won’t come out."
"This time, our Joyful Zen Sect is completely over... Everyone, we should think about what to do next."
"I plan to leave the Joyful Zen Sect tomorrow and then meditate in seclusion for a while... Once my hair grows out, I’ll join another top sect. With my talent, getting into another top sect isn’t difficult."
"Why wait for your hair to grow out?"
"If you don’t wait for your hair to grow out, isn’t that telling others you’re a disciple of the Joyful Zen Sect? After today, the matter of Wyatt Barnes exterminating our Joyful Zen Sect will surely spread throughout the Southeast Six Regions, and even the entire border area. By then, which top sect would dare to recklessly accept remnants of the Joyful Zen Sect?"
"Makes sense... Looks like I should start growing my hair out too."
...
The current Joyful Zen Sect has completely fallen apart, and most of its disciples are now seeking other paths.
In the sky above the Joyful Zen Sect’s premises, Killian Diaz, once the Joyful Zen Sect Buddha Child, stood there, looking indifferently at the numerous Joyful Zen Sect disciples leaving.
"The task Alchemist Barnes assigned to me is partially complete... After today, the Joyful Zen Sect will be no more!"
"Next step... is to spread what Alchemist Barnes did at the Joyful Zen Sect premises widely."
Murmuring to himself, Killian Diaz’s figure flickered and disappeared into the void.
The next moment, he left the Joyful Zen Sect premises.
Before Wyatt Barnes left the Crossing Region, the series of events that took place at the Joyful Zen Sect premises after his arrival were spread widely, centering on the Joyful Zen Sect premises.
Suddenly, all four directions were shaken!
The large region surrounding the Joyful Zen Sect, which usually regarded the Joyful Zen Sect as a high and untouchable holy presence.
And now, they learned:
The Joyful Zen Sect has been wiped out!
"The Joyful Zen Sect... wiped out? This... this must be a joke, right?"
"Oh my god... Is this true? The Joyful Zen Sect, one of the second-tier top sects in our Southeast Six Regions, only second to the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect, actually wiped out?"
"The most absurd thing is... the news coming from the Joyful Zen Sect says that it was personally wiped out by that Chief Alchemist of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, Wyatt Barnes!"
"The Chief Alchemist of the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect, Wyatt Barnes? The one who after the last Pill Tao Conference, became famous throughout the Southeast Six Regions and is recognized as the new number one top-grade Alchemist of the Southeast Six Regions?"
"Yes! It’s him!"
"Wasn’t it said that he’s not even a hundred years old? Not even a hundred years old, and able to wipe out the Joyful Zen Sect?"
"The most absurd thing is... the news from the Joyful Zen Sect also says that their elder ancestor, who successfully broke through and achieved ’Prime Immortal King’, was still killed by Wyatt Barnes!"
"Someone not even a hundred years old, killing an Immortal King?"
...
As the news spread widely, more and more people doubted the authenticity of the information coming out of the Joyful Zen Sect, and soon, many gathered to explore the truth at the Joyful Zen Sect premises.
Finally, led by some powerful loose cultivators, they entered the Joyful Zen Sect premises, only to find it completely empty.
Most importantly:
The inferior-grade Immortal Crystal vein of the Joyful Zen Sect had been completely dug out, as if it had been plundered.
At this point, everyone was convinced:
The once-thriving Joyful Zen Sect was truly finished!
