Chapter 2738: Chapter 2738: Invisibility Talisman
"Divine Crystal?!"
Wyatt Barnes originally thought the white-robed youth had arranged the soundproof formation to discuss something else with him, but unexpectedly, the youth directly mentioned the ’Divine Crystal’ inside the necklace pendant around Leilany’s neck.
"How does he know there is a Divine Crystal inside Leilany’s necklace pendant?"
As he looked once more at the white-robed youth, Wyatt’s eyes were not only filled with shock and disbelief but also laced with a few strands of fierce assassination intent.
It was a subconscious rise of the intent to kill.
Anyone who knows about Leilany possessing the Divine Crystal cannot be allowed to live!
This was the thought that arose in Wyatt’s subconscious.
"What? Planning to silence me?"
Although the killing intent in Wyatt’s eyes quickly faded, it was clearly captured by the white-robed youth’s gaze, and immediately, the youth asked with a face full of teasing.
"It’s not that I look down on you... though not just you, I dare say that in this whole Desolate Territory, no one has the ability to kill me!"
When the white-robed youth spoke these words, his calm eyes suddenly radiated with unparalleled confidence, making it impossible not to believe his assertion.
Seemingly emphasizing the youth’s confidence.
The moment the youth’s voice fell, a powerful aura suddenly swept out from his body, like a giant hammer, fiercely pounding against Wyatt’s chest, making a dull thud only audible to Wyatt.
Boom!
After the boom, Wyatt felt his chest sink, as if his organs were twisted together, his inner vitality surged, and he couldn’t help but let out a ’Wah’ as he vomited a mouthful of stagnant blood.
As Wyatt felt his body lighten, seemingly floating and flying backward like riding the clouds, a gentle force emerged from behind him, stopping him and causing him to stand still, yet his inner vitality surged again.
"Wah—"
Another mouthful of stagnant blood spewed out, coloring the ground red, glaring and radiant.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Yet, Wyatt felt as if he had walked through Hell Gate.
"You... who exactly are you?!"
When Wyatt looked again at the white-robed youth, there was only fear and apprehension in his eyes.
Keen-eyed Wyatt, at this moment, also noticed:
While he vomited blood twice, Crue Dragonsmith, the Thirteen Prince, who was shielded by the formations laid down by the white-robed youth, seemed completely unaware, constantly watching this direction, but apparently not seeing the scene of him vomiting blood.
Otherwise, Crue Dragonsmith couldn’t possibly remain so calm.
This made Wyatt realize:
The formation casually laid down by the white-robed youth was not just a soundproofing formation; it must have also confused Crue Dragonsmith’s vision.
Additionally, the youth’s mere aura manipulated him like a toy in the palm, appearing capable of ending his life at a whim, which couldn’t help but make Wyatt fearful and anxious...
"Who I am is not important."
Faced with Wyatt’s inquiry, the white-robed youth said calmly, "What’s important is whether you still want the ’Concealment Pendant’ I hold?"
Wyatt didn’t respond directly to the youth but solemnly asked, "With your strength, even if you wanted to forcibly seize the ’Divine Crystal’, we couldn’t stop you... It seems unnecessary for you to exchange this ’Concealment Pendant’, does it?"
Though Wyatt didn’t know the specifics of the youth’s strength.
But he could be sure:
The white-robed youth was definitely stronger than Leilany!
Furthermore, likely even stronger than the Immortal Lord from the Merciful Voyage Immortal Sect he had encountered!
Such a being could easily seize the Divine Crystal from Leilany, with no need to exchange it.
"I’m not interested in the ’Divine Crystal’ that girl holds."
Contrary to Wyatt’s expectations, after his solemn question, the white-robed youth shrugged nonchalantly, giving this unexpected response.
This left Wyatt momentarily dumbfounded, "Then you just..."
"I just mentioned the girl’s Divine Crystal to let you understand... my power and methods."
The white-robed youth interrupted Wyatt, speaking indifferently.
Upon hearing these words, Wyatt couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his doubts vanished.
He thought, given the white-robed youth’s strength, if really wanted to obtain the Divine Crystal on Leilany, he would have acted long ago, not waited until now.
"But... who exactly is he? Even uninterested in such a rare item like the Divine Crystal that only appears once every thousand years within the planes..."
Now, in Wyatt’s eyes, the white-robed youth became increasingly mysterious.
Divine Crystal, how precious.
Yet, the white-robed youth said he wasn’t interested in the Divine Crystal.
"Elder, then you..."
Wyatt was about to ask the white-robed youth what he wanted in exchange for the ’Concealment Pendant’, but the youth interrupted him again, "Just like Teng Yun, call me ’Brother Patel’."
"Yes, Brother Patel."
Wyatt immediately complied and directly asked, "Brother Patel, the Thirteen Prince told me earlier that you could give me the ’Concealment Pendant’ but wanted to talk to me personally about the ’conditions’... Since you’re not interested in the Divine Crystal, what ’conditions’ are you referring to?"
"I need you to go to a place and fetch something for me."
The young man in a white robe said.
"Hmm?"
Hearing the words of the young man in the white robe, Wyatt Barnes was baffled, "Brother Patel, with your strength, anything I can retrieve should be of no difficulty for you, right?"
"That place is somewhat special... No one over a hundred years old can enter."
The young man in the white robe continued.
"No one over a hundred years old can enter?"
Wyatt Barnes was startled.
"Yes."
The young man in the white robe nodded and then continued, "That place is related to the ’Desolate Territory Competition’ organized by the three great sects of the Desolate Territory... The reason the three great sects of the Desolate Territory are collecting outstanding young powerhouses under a hundred years old within the Desolate Territory is to have them enter that place and retrieve various treasures inside for them."
"And in that place, there is something I want."
The young man in the white robe said.
Hearing the words of the young man in the white robe, Wyatt Barnes’ pupils slightly contracted.
No wonder Crue Dragonsmith said earlier that the ’Desolate Territory Competition’ organized by the three great sects of the Desolate Territory was somewhat strange this time.
Because in the past, there were no age restrictions for the Desolate Territory Competition held by the three great sects of the Desolate Territory, but this time, it was restricted to only young powerhouses under a hundred years old.
The three great sects of the Desolate Territory indeed have a scheme.
Moreover, according to the young man in the white robe, the three great sects of the Desolate Territory want the outstanding individuals who stand out in the Desolate Territory Competition to enter a certain place and retrieve various treasures inside for them.
Because in that place, only those under a hundred years old can enter.
"Brother Patel, since that’s the case, you could completely wait for the people of the three great sects of the Desolate Territory to get that thing and then snatch it... It seems unnecessary to pay the price of the ’Concealment Pendant’ to have me do it for you?"
Wyatt Barnes asked.
Previously, the young man in the white robe had said,
No one in the Desolate Territory was capable of killing him.
Added to the fact that the young man in the white robe had no interest in the Divine Crystal,
At that time, Wyatt Barnes realized:
The personal strength of the young man in the white robe must far surpass the three great sects of the Desolate Territory, because not to mention the three great sects of the Desolate Territory, even more powerful forces than the three great sects of the Desolate Territory would probably fight ruthlessly to seize the ’Divine Crystal’.
It’s hard for Wyatt Barnes to imagine how strong someone uninterested in the Divine Crystal could be.
But at the very least, Wyatt Barnes can be sure that it would be very easy for such an existence to snatch something from the hands of the three great sects of the Desolate Territory, without any difficulty.
"Snatching something from the hands of the three great sects of the Desolate Territory would be very simple."
In response to Wyatt Barnes’ inquiry, the young man in the white robe’s eyes flashed, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "However, that also requires others to be able to come out of that place alive..."
"That place is very dangerous?!"
Wyatt Barnes’ expression instantly became grave.
"It’s more than just dangerous."
The young man in the white robe gave Wyatt Barnes a deep look and said, "Your strength is enough to rival a Daai Law Golden Immortal... But even for you, entering that place would be almost certain death!"
Certain death!
The moment the words of the young man in the white robe fell, Wyatt Barnes’ expression changed drastically.
He knew that someone as strong as the person before him would not bother to deceive him.
"If that’s the case, Brother Patel, why..."
Since the person before him said that entering that place would mean almost certain death, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t understand why this person would still discuss such terms with him. What’s the point?
"Going alone, you would naturally be facing certain death."
The young man in the white robe said indifferently, "However, if that girl goes with you, the situation would be different... With her strength, while protecting you, she would be able to handle the dangers inside."
"Moreover, even if that place had no dangers and anyone could come out of it... without the guidance of the item I provide, no one would be able to find what I want."
The young man in the white robe continued.
"Leilany?"
Wyatt Barnes frowned, "Brother Patel, the reason I want the ’Concealment Pendant’, that Immortal Artifact in your possession, is because I don’t want the fact that Leilany is under a hundred years old to become widely known... After all, up until now, many people already know her strength in the Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation."
"Her strength is unquestionable... Once it’s confirmed that she’s under a hundred years old, she will have trouble."
Wyatt Barnes said.
"If she goes in with you, I can guarantee no one will discover her... At that time, I will give her two ’Invisibility Talismans’.
The young man in the white robe said.
"Invisibility Talismans?"
Wyatt Barnes frowned again, "As far as I know, Invisibility Talismans are Immortal Talismans etched by Immortal Lords... Anyone above the rank of Immortal Lord can see through them."
"Moreover, even Love Rowan the Upper Immortal cannot see through them... but they can still sense the presence of someone using the Invisibility Talisman if they are close enough."
