Chapter 715: Chapter 715: The First in the Dynasty Martial Competition

"Elder Ghostly, rest assured, unless I die... otherwise, the fragment of the Demon Sealing Monument in my hand is absolutely impossible for Wyatt Barnes to take away."

Marshall Tyler vowed solemnly.

"Hmm."

A grim and aged voice acknowledged, then continued, "If possible, I hope you can snatch the ’Demon Sealing Monument’ fragment he has in his hand... even though that is just a broken Demon Sealing Monument, but the most important part of the Demon Sealing Monument is inside."

"How can I snatch it?"

Marshall Tyler asked.

"Even though I don’t know why for some reason, that fragment of the broken Demon Sealing Monument acknowledges him as its master... but as long as you can kill him, the Demon Sealing Monument will become ownerless again, and with my help, you might not necessarily be unable to make it acknowledge you as its master!"

The grim, aged voice said excitedly.

"Elder Ghostly, didn’t you say that once I become stronger, you will teach me the devil techniques and make me a powerful Martial Artist of the Devil Path? If so, what is the use of this Demon Sealing Monument? Or, do you want it to seal me?"

Marshall Tyler was somewhat puzzled.

"Hmph! Do you think the Demon Sealing Monument only has the ability to ’seal demons’?"

The grim and aged voice continued, "The Demon Sealing Monument, as a super sacred artifact in the ’Top Ten Sacred Artifact List’, besides being able to suppress and kill the souls of Martial Artists of the Devil Path, it can also extract the power of the Martial Artists of the Devil Path sealed inside... Once the Demon Sealing Monument extracts those powers, they will be sealed inside."

"And the part of the broken Demon Sealing Monument in that kid’s hand, is precisely used to accommodate the powers of numerous Martial Artists of the Devil Path whose souls have been scattered... If it is made to recognize a warrior who has not yet practiced the devil techniques as its master, once that warrior practices the devil techniques in the future, he can use the power of countless strong martial artists of the Devil Path inside the monument to cultivate his skills, making rapid progress!"

"Of course, from then on, the Demon Sealing Monument will completely lose its ability to ’seal demons’... because it will gradually undergo Devil Transformation, completely losing its instinct."

As he spoke, the grim, aged voice paused, then continued, "You are very lucky to encounter this broken Demon Sealing Monument before practicing the devil techniques... you should know, if it were another martial artist of the Devil Path who has already practiced the devil techniques, not only would he be unable to make the Demon Sealing Monument acknowledge him as its master, but he would also suffer a backlash and be sealed by the Demon Sealing Monument!"

As he spoke, mixed with a soul-deep fear, echoed the grim, aged voice.

Every word that Elder Ghostly uttered was heard by Marshall Tyler without a single word missed.

"Yes, I’m very lucky... However, it’s not an easy task to snatch the broken Demon Sealing Monument from his hand."

Marshall Tyler stared at Wyatt Barnes in the distance, a hint of apprehension mingling in the depths of his savage eyes.

He never expected that after several years, he, who originally thought he could crush Wyatt Barnes, would once again be utterly defeated by Wyatt Barnes.

He was very unwilling.

But he also knew that his unwillingness was futile.

What he has to do now is to snatch the broken Demon Sealing Monument from Wyatt Barnes’ hand, because it will affect his future cultivation progress.

"Hmph! If you don’t want to be suppressed and sealed by him with the Demon Sealing Monument after you’ve practiced the devil techniques in the future, then go ahead and destroy yourself."

With his grim, aged voice, Elder Ghostly’s words echoed in Marshall Tyler’s mind, making his face increasingly unpleasant.

"I didn’t say I was going to destroy myself."

Marshall Tyler said solemnly.

"Good. Also, I need to remind you that I cannot directly intervene in your fight with him as I have before... The fragment of the Demon Sealing Monument he holds can suppress and detain me!"

Elder Ghostly continued, "So, how you handle him in the future and how you take the Demon Sealing Monument fragment from his hand, depends solely on you... Of course, I can’t directly intervene, but I can do everything in my power to help you improve your skills, not for anything else, only to kill him and take the fragment of the Demon Sealing Monument."

"Thank you Elder Ghostly, I will do my best!"

Marshall Tyler took a deep breath and agreed.

"It’s not about trying, it’s about you have to kill him! I can tell you that as long as you make the broken Demon Sealing Monument acknowledge you as its master before you practice the devil techniques, once you practice the devil techniques in the future, with the help of the powers of many strong Martial Artists of the Devil Path sealed inside the Demon Sealing Monument, your strength will soar. It’s not impossible for you to become the ’leader’ of the Devil Path!"

Elder Ghostly continued his temptation of Marshall Tyler.

And indeed, his temptation was very effective.

The leader of the Devil Path?

Marshall Tyler’s eyes flashed, and his emotions were completely stirred up.

Thud!

All of a sudden, Marshall Tyler only felt a colossal force coming from behind, brutally landing on the back of his neck.

The next moment, he felt a dizziness in front of his eyes and completely lost consciousness.

"Useless thing!"

Deep within the mind of Marshall Tyler, a grim and aged voice sounded, somewhat irritable.

"Wyatt Barnes!"

"Wyatt Barnes!"

"Wyatt Barnes!"

...

At this moment, the crowd around the cage fight arena was completely boiling, repeatedly shouting Wyatt Barnes’s name.

And Wyatt Barnes at this moment, had just used his Soul Technique ’Thousand Illusions’ to create an illusion space, covering Marshall Tyler and knocking him out when he was momentarily caught off guard.

Without the help of Elder Ghostly, Marshall Tyler, who was just a common Martial Artist in the ninth stage of the Enter Void Realm, could not resist Wyatt Barnes’ Soul Technique ’Thousand Illusions’.

Whew!

From the exclusive upper-class audience seats of the Great Turdo Dynasty Imperial Family, an old man in black leaped and caught the unconscious Marshall Tyler. He stared deep into Wyatt Barnes’s eyes, before returning to his seat.

"Big brother!"

The moment the old man brought Marshall Tyler back, Sophie Tyler came up to him, looking worried.

"It’s alright, he just fainted."

Shaking his head, the old man in black gently rubbed Tyler’s temples, and shortly after, Tyler began to stir, waking up in a daze.

Seeing this, Sophie sighed in relief.

"Master, I’m sorry, I couldn’t secure the ’first’ place."

After waking up, Tyler realized what had happened. Without the aid of Elder Ghostly, with only the spiritual power afforded by the ninth level of Enter the Void Realm, he could not withstand Wyatt’s illusionary Soul Technique.

Although he was unwilling to admit his defeat at the hands of Wyatt, he knew that it was inevitable.

The Demon Sealing Monument restrained Elder Ghostly, who could not help him resist the illusionary Soul Technique. Presently, he was destined not to be Wyatt’s match.

"You shouldn’t blame yourself, being able to achieve the ’second’ place in today’s Dynasty Martial Arts Competition is already a great accomplishment."

The old man shook his head, showing no signs of blaming Tyler.

"Yes, bro, you are already very strong."

Sophie agreed.

"Even if I’m strong, didn’t I still lose to Wyatt Barnes?"

Tyler gave a self-deprecating smile. He then looked towards Wyatt Barnes standing in the distant sky, receiving cheers from the crowd surrounding the arena, a cold light flickering in his eyes.

"Young lad, with your current strength, snatching the Demon Sealing Monument shard from Wyatt Barnes won’t be an easy task... I suggest you seek the power of the Great Turdo Dynasty Imperial family to help you seize the shard from Wyatt."

Out of the blue, Tyler heard Elder Ghostly’s voice in his mind.

Use someone else to kill?

Tyler’s eyes gleamed upon hearing this, he sighed, "Elder Ghostly, even if I embellish the Demon Sealing Monument shard in Wyatt’s possession, and the Great Turdo Dynasty Imperial Family becomes greedy enough to steal it... won’t we still be making bridal clothes for someone else?"

He was not willing to work for someone else’s benefit.

"Making clothes for someone else?"

Elder Ghostly scoffed, "Even if we ended up doing that, so what? If they don’t want to hand over the Demon Sealing Monument, you can simply come back in a few years and kill them all, taking back the Demon Sealing Monument. "

"That Wyatt Barnes, although he’s much weaker than the Imperial Family, it must be said, his potential is astonishing... if the Demon Sealing Monument remains in his hands, after a few years, you may not be able to take the monument from him!"

"But, if the Demon Sealing Monument ends up in the hands of the Great Turdo Dynasty Imperial Family, with my help, I am certain that in a few years, you will have the power to put pressure on the Imperial Family and take back the Demon Sealing Monument."

Elder Ghostly made his point clear.

The Demon Sealing Monument would be better off in the hands of the Great Turdo Dynasty Imperial Family than in Wyatt’s hands.

The potential threat posed by Wyatt was significantly higher than that of the Imperial Family.

"Elder Ghostly, you are wise!"

Tyler wasn’t slow-witted. He quickly got Elder Ghostly’s point, "Elder Ghostly, rest assured. Once today’s martial arts competition is over, I’ll discuss with my master and the Emperor of the Great Turdo Dynasty...I believe that as long as I emphasize it properly, they’ll surely be interested in the Demon Sealing Monument shard in Wyatt’s possession."

Tyler was full of confidence.

In the sky above the arena.

"The young and powerful ’Wyatt Barnes’ from the Black Stone Empire, who secured the ’first’ place in our Great Turdo Dynasty Martial Arts Competition, will receive a reward of fifty-thousand low-grade original stones!"

The old man announced straightforwardly.

Immediately, the spectators surrounding the arena once again erupted in cheers.

Especially the people from the Black Stone Empire, their smiles broadened.

Whoosh!

Another old man simply handed a Storage Ring to Wyatt.

Wyatt took it, confirmed that it contained fifty-thousand low-grade original stones after using a drop of blood to claim the ring, then pocketed it.

"The ’second’ place in today’s Martial Arts Competition is our Imperial Family’s recommended young power, ’Marshall Tyler’, who will receive a reward of thirty-thousand low-grade original stones."

Wyatt didn’t pay much attention to the old man’s subsequent announcement.

At this moment, his attention was completely on the broken stone tablet floating in the air, "It’s strange, but this ’Demon Sealing Monument’ seems to keep coming back to me."

Wyatt moved, rapidly flying towards the middle-class audience seats where the people from Black Stone Empire were seated.

Whoosh!

Almost the instant Wyatt landed, the Demon Sealing Monument appeared beside him, floating in the air, shadowing his movements.

"Hm?"

Just then, Wyatt felt a faint but discernible connection between himself and the Demon Sealing Monument.

This feeling wasn’t unfamiliar to him.

Every time a drop of his blood fell on an unclaimed Storage Ring, during the ’Blood Drop Ownership’ process, he would get the same sense of blood connection.
