Legend of Wyatt-Chapter 1494: Body of the Sun

In fact, Valentin Howard also knew that he couldn’t blame his daughter for this.

His daughter rarely went out into the world, so she didn’t know the ’rules’ of the Law of the Jungle out there.

"Father, why do your words sound just like his?"

Everly Howard furrowed her brows.

She still remembered that when she asked Wyatt Barnes to return Elder Thaddeus’s Storage Ring to her, Wyatt said something almost identical to what her father was saying now.

If she didn’t know it was impossible for her father to have discussed with Wyatt Barnes beforehand, she would have suspected they had planned this together.

"Everly, these are the ’rules’ of the world outside."

Valentin Howard could only explain it this way; some things can’t be understood just by hearing about them, and must be experienced personally.

"Alright, Everly, let this matter go, don’t think too much about it... Go find your brother, I need to discuss going to apologize to the young brother Wyatt tomorrow."

Valentin told Everly.

"Father, there’s no way my brother would agree to this."

Everly replied with a bitter expression. She knew her brother too well; his pride was exceedingly strong.

Not to mention apologizing to someone he had a conflict with today, he wouldn’t even apologize to someone he hadn’t had a conflict with.

"For this matter, he must agree whether he wants to or not! I don’t believe he’s brave enough to defy me!"

Valentin snorted coldly and said domineeringly, "Just go call your brother, don’t tell him about this beforehand... I’ll tell him personally. Otherwise, if you tell him, he might sneak away in advance."

Though not thoroughly understanding his son’s character, Valentin still knew quite a lot about it.

"Yes, Father."

Everly left the audience hall with a bitter smile and went to find her brother, Leslie Howard.

At that moment, Leslie had already left the Howard family’s compound, and she naturally came back empty-handed.

Learning that her brother wasn’t there and had apparently left, Everly actually sighed in relief.

She reported back to Valentin, "Father, I went to my brother’s courtyard to find him, but he wasn’t there... I asked the servants in his yard, and they all said he hadn’t returned."

"That brat likely couldn’t handle my reprimanding and went out to have fun."

Valentin cursed with a sneer.

"Steward Amias."

At the same time, Valentin called out loudly.

"Patriarch."

Immediately, an elderly man standing outside the audience hall walked in; it was Amias Howard, the house steward of the Howard family.

"Take some people out and bring that brat back... Use any means necessary, even if you have to tie him up, he must be here by morning!"

Valentin ordered.

"Yes, Patriarch."

Amias withdrew with a bitter smile; he disliked such tasks the most, but he dared not disobey the Patriarch’s orders.

Leslie was the heir-apparent, but he hadn’t yet matured, so Amias wasn’t afraid of him.

What he feared was the powerful figure backing Leslie.

That figure was a real powerhouse within the Howard family, not someone Amias could afford to offend.

At that moment, Valentin only assumed Leslie had gone out to enjoy himself.

He was completely unaware that Leslie had set his sights on the young man he intended to befriend, someone suspected to be from a Seven-fold Sect.

He was also unaware that this night could very well be a ’turning point’ of upheaval for the Howard family.

Leaving the Howard family, Wyatt Barnes, who had returned to the inn, did not leave.

If he were someone who avoided conflict, he would’ve gone as far away as possible, staying out of the Howard family’s sight.

But he was not so; he had no plans to run away with his ’tail’ between his legs.

After returning to his room, he eagerly entered the third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda to cultivate.

The time flow rate and excellent cultivation environment in the third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda allowed his cultivation to progress rapidly.

"Cultivating in the third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, if we calculate in outside time... The time it takes for me to break through from Transcending Mortal Realm Large Perfection to Entering the Saint Realm won’t even be as long as it took to break through from Small Perfection to Large Perfection."

Wyatt was certain of this.

Five days of cultivating within the third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda equated to just one day outside.

This was something the second layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda couldn’t compete with.

Moreover, the cultivation environment of the second layer was far inferior to the third layer.

Comparing the two, if a comparison must be made.

It could be directly said that the cultivation speed in the second layer isn’t even half of the speed in the third layer.

"Before I return to ’Crescent Island,’ I should be able to break through to the mid-stage of entering the Saint Realm... Of course, if I can break through to the late-stage, that would be even better."

Thinking of this, Wyatt’s mind became quite active.

"What I need to do now is to cultivate diligently to enhance my cultivation as quickly as possible! With my current strength, I can handle ordinary Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators of the Entering the Saint Realm, but in the face of stronger ones, I’m like a lamb to the slaughter."

Ever since learning about the beings beyond the mid-stage of Entering the Saint Realm who could easily evade his backtracking, Wyatt felt unprecedented pressure.

He was eager to enhance his cultivation skill!

However, everything is a process, and he knew he couldn’t rush it.

But he was just impatient, unable to control his emotions.

"Someone outside is spying."

At some unknown point, a familiar voice rang in Wyatt’s ears, like a sudden clap of thunder, bringing him to absolute alertness.

"Elder Fire? You’re awake?"

The moment Wyatt opened his eyes, he saw Elder Fire right in front of him.

"Yes."

Elder Fire nodded, "Repairing the third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda took a lot out of me, and it took me a while to fully recover... However, during my recovery, I gained something, and my strength has returned somewhat."

"Now, my Divine Sense has recovered considerably and can extend out to cover an area... It may not have offensive capabilities, but it’s useful for probing."

Elder Fire said, "I just sensed that outside this inn, there are two people spying on you, and they’re not here with good intentions."

"Two people? Spying on me?"

Wyatt frowned, "Could they be from the Howard family? It could only be them! What exactly do they want?"

"During my recent recovery, I saved a bit of ’Sun power,’ ready to transfer it into your body to refine your True Energy... Once your True Energy transforms into this world’s ’True Origin,’ it will carry Sun power, becoming ’Solar True Origin’."

Elder Fire told Wyatt.

True Origin is the power within Saint Realm and above experts.

Once one breaks through Entering the Saint Realm into the Saint Realm, True Energy will also transform into ’True Origin.’

"Sun power? Solar True Origin?"

Wyatt’s eyes lit up at this, but he quickly furrowed his brows again, "Elder Fire, let’s do it next time... There are still two guys outside to deal with."

"Sun power dissipates moment by moment; even I can’t keep it for long... Moreover, with your current True Energy, it would only take about an hour to refine it."

Without waiting for Wyatt’s consent, Elder Fire raised his hand and pointed his sword finger towards Wyatt’s brow.

Suddenly, Wyatt felt a burning, intimidating warmth engulf him, transforming into a hot stream entering through his brow into his energy sea.

It was like a marauding ’robber.’

As this stream of heat—Sun power—entered, Wyatt found that the True Energy within his energy sea started to boil.

For a moment, Wyatt felt dizzy, and eventually, he completely lost consciousness.

During Wyatt’s unconscious state, the True Energy within his energy sea underwent earthshaking changes.

Initially, the True Energy boiled, swelling like it was invigorated.

Immediately after, the ninety-nine Saint Veins within Wyatt were drawn by a stream of heat, rapidly circulating the spiritual energy from the heavens and the earth into his body, completing one Great Cycle after another.

This stream of heat was incredibly domineering, almost possessing the characteristic of ’Swallowing Technique.’

The spiritual energy of the third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was usually invisible; now it gathered above Wyatt’s head, appearing to congeal into a large pool of liquid that continued to grow... it was spiritual energy materializing.

The materialized spiritual energy continuously surged into Wyatt’s body, led by the heat stream, circulating Grea Cycle after another.

Meanwhile, black impurities began exuding from every pore of Wyatt’s body.

However, the black impurities weren’t much.

Wyatt’s body had already undergone two ’transformations’, so naturally, it didn’t have as many impurities as an ordinary person.

At this moment, if any Great God with Divine Ability was here, they’d surely be able to tell at a glance... that this three-legged Golden Crow was using Sun power through a Divinely-inspired method, cleansing and overhauling this youth in purple clothes to achieve a ’Sun Body.’

This Divinely-inspired method could only be used once in its lifetime by each three-legged Golden Crow, an incredibly domineering phenomenon defying the natural order.

At that moment, Elder Fire had transformed into his real form, a three-legged Golden Crow engulfed in fire, emanating overwhelming heat waves that made the whole third layer of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda feel like it was in a ’scorching summer.’

And Wyatt, who was unconscious, knew nothing of it.

An hour, equivalent to two hours.

Two hours later, Elder Fire finally reverted to his humanoid form, his previously rosy complexion now exceptionally pale, as if he had aged hundreds of years all at once.

At this time, Wyatt gradually regained consciousness.

Initially, he was a bit bewildered.

But after recollecting for a while, he fully regained lucidity and first inspected his energy sea.

This inspection gave him quite a shock.

"This... this... this..."

Wyatt was stupefied, utterly stupefied, looking completely incredulous, as if he had discovered something unimaginable.

"This seems to be... mid-stage Entering the Saint Realm?"

After a while, Wyatt snapped back to reality, swallowing hard, murmuring in shock and awe.
