Chapter 2868: Chief Alchemy Immortal Master of the Joy Zen Sect, Dylan Sinclair!

The Storage Ring of Elder Ancestor Ho Shan of the Supreme Unity, was suspended in front of Wyatt Barnes and other members of the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect, drawn by the power of Infinite Buckingham, Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect.

After a while, not a single person among Wyatt Barnes and the others reached out to take it.

Finally, it was Wyatt Barnes who first spoke, breaking the slightly silent atmosphere:

"Alchemist Swayer, you should put away Elder Ancestor’s Storage Ring... When you return to the Sect, hand it over to the Sect Leader."

With Wyatt Barnes’ words, Hunter Swayer immediately stepped forward a few steps, received the Storage Ring, and put it away, his expression exceedingly grim the entire time.

Although Wyatt Barnes didn’t really have feelings for Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity, now as the chief Alchemist of the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect, seeing the Elder Ancestor die in front of him still made him feel some anger inside.

But, no matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do now, because his strength was limited, and currently, it seemed that they of the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect were not in the right.

"It seems I guessed right... things are not that simple."

As Hunter Swayer put away the Storage Ring left behind by the deceased Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity, Wyatt Barnes’s gaze was still fixed on a young man, covered in blood, from the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect.

It was this young man’s arrival and his report that led Infinite Buckingham, Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect, to fly into a rage and kill the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity!

Wyatt Barnes, who had been observing this young man all along, captured, at that moment, a fleeting look of guilt on the young man’s face.

At that time, the young man was just looking over at where Infinite Buckingham stood, the place where the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity was killed.

If the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity had truly killed the Junior Sect Master Preston Buckingham of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect, it would have been impossible for the young man to show even a moment of guilt!

"It seems that the death of the Junior Sect Master Preston Buckingham of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect really had nothing to do with the Elder Ancestor... rather, it is related to this person!"

Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but speculate silently.

Until now, Wyatt Barnes hadn’t considered the possibility that the Junior Sect Master Preston Buckingham of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect might not be dead because he couldn’t have imagined that the Soul Bead of Preston Buckingham in Infinite Buckingham’s possession had expired at just that time.

He only assumed that Preston Buckingham was indeed dead.

But the death of Preston Buckingham was, however, framed on the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity by this young man called ’Little Six’ before him.

Although Wyatt Barnes was very certain of his speculation, he also knew that without tangible evidence, even if he voiced his guesses, no one would believe him.

The people of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect were even less likely to believe him, an outsider.

"Elder Ancestor, though we didn’t spend much time together, and even if your protection of me was mostly because I held some value to the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect..."

Wyatt Barnes muttered silently in his heart as he looked towards the place where Infinite Buckingham, Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Immortal Sect, stood, which was also the place where the Elder Ancestor fell: "But for this matter, I will do my best to give you an explanation and clear your name!"

Along the way, having experienced the life and death of many people across two lifetimes, Wyatt Barnes had become very indifferent to the life and death of those not close to him.

But, no matter what, he was now the chief Alchemist of the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect, and the Sect Leader of the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect had been quite kind to him.

So, regarding the death of the Elder Ancestor, he still wanted to do something for the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect.

Of course, he knew that there was nothing he could do now.

Only when he had enough strength could he uncover the truth and clear the name of the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity.

The death of the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity, although it caused quite a stir.

But in front of a grand event like the ’Pill Tao Assembly’ of the southeastern six domains, the death of an Immortal Lord was not enough to affect the bigger picture.

So, shortly after, the Pill Tao Assembly officially began again.

Many top-grade Alchemists from leading sects had already begun gambling through Pill Tao, with a wide array of bets, dazzling to the eye...

And the members of the Alchemists’ Alliance, after the stone platform in the Pill Tao Plaza was destroyed, naturally didn’t continue to sit on the platform.

They started moving around the Pill Tao Plaza, specifically to intimidate those untrustworthy Alchemists who lost but were unwilling to hand over their stakes.

With their deterrent, even if some Alchemists were tempted to default, they dared not actually go through with it.

...

After the death of the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity, Wyatt Barnes could clearly feel some greedy gazes falling on him.

The owners of these looks were mostly some powerful Loose Cultivators from the southeastern six domains.

As for why they were looking at him with greed, Wyatt Barnes could easily guess:

These people didn’t dare harbor ill intentions towards the King Grade Immortal Artifact of the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect, but that didn’t mean they wouldn’t covet the Monarch Level Immortal Method and Divine Ability in his possession...

To be precise, they were coveting the two Monarch Level Immortal Method and Divine Ability he won from the Fuyang Immortal Sect and the Chiba Immortal Sect.

One must know, when the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity was alive, though these people had greed in their hearts, they didn’t dare show it.

Now, with the death of the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity, their gazes betrayed their inner desires.

However, in the face of these greedy gazes, Wyatt Barnes was indifferent.

Because he knew:

Even if the Elder Ancestor of the Supreme Unity is dead, these people still wouldn’t dare touch him!

No matter what, he was backed by the Supreme Unity Immortal Sect, one of the top sects of the southeastern six domains, with certain deterrent power.

Unless these people are confident in being able to ambush and kill all of them, leaving no survivors.

Otherwise, these people absolutely wouldn’t dare to act recklessly!

"Instead, people from the top sects of the Southeast Six Territories need to be more careful... but, given those present, they still can’t seize the communication talismans from us."

"Under these circumstances... they equally don’t dare to snatch the items from my hands."

Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.

This time, before setting out, the Sect Leader of Taiyi Immortal Sect gave him several communication talismans, and those communication talismans were no ordinary ones.

They were communication talismans inscribed by Immortal Kings!

Those communication talismans were left by Taiyi Immortal Sect’s experts throughout history upon breaking through to the Immortal King level and leaving the Southeast Six Territories for the Central Territory.

It was to provide a safety assurance to the younger disciples of Taiyi Immortal Sect.

Because they possessed communication talismans inscribed by Immortal Kings, even if they encountered an assassination by anyone from a top sect, they could dispatch the message to Taiyi Immortal Sect before they were killed.

As for scatter cultivators, although they didn’t care if they sent the communication talisman back, since they had no sect or family and were like monks without a temple, the sparse few lines of information inside couldn’t lead Taiyi Immortal Sect to them.

However, scatter cultivators are even more concerned about leaving any survivors among them.

Because, once faced with danger, they would naturally use the ’Void Escape Talisman’ inscribed by Immortal Kings to flee.

Although the scatter cultivators might also have a Void Escape Talisman, they couldn’t guarantee they could catch up and kill them all.

If any survivors remain, they might take the ’Floating Shadow Bead’ documenting them back to Taiyi Immortal Sect.

Once the Floating Shadow Bead reaches Taiyi Immortal Sect, even if their disguise methods are superior, their techniques and physical forms could still expose their identity.

As long as Taiyi Immortal Sect intends to find them, unless they can reach the Central Territory before Taiyi Immortal Sect finds them...

Otherwise, even if they leave the Southeast Six Territories, as long as they remain in the borderlands, Taiyi Immortal Sect can still find them!

As the top sect in the borderlands of South Heaven’s Borderlands, Taiyi Immortal Sect has an extensive intelligence network, covering the entire borderland.

Of course, other top sects in the borderlands are similar.

This is what makes the top sects in the borderlands most terrifying.

Among the scattered cultivators present, those interested in Wyatt Barnes’ Monarch Level Immortal Method and Divine Ability are generally some ordinary-strength scatter cultivators.

Even as Immortal Lords, their strength is rather ordinary.

With the speed of these people, it’s practically impossible for them to leave the borderlands for the Central Territory before Taiyi Immortal Sect finds them.

Because, in such major events, Taiyi Immortal Sect’s intelligence network usually transmits information through communication talismans inscribed by Immortal Kings.

The speed is so quick, it’s unimaginable to ordinary people.

It is precisely because of this that Wyatt Barnes is not worried about scatter cultivators striking against them.

"Alchemist Barnes!"

Suddenly, Wyatt Barnes’ ears filled with a robust sound, exceptionally loud.

At the sound, Wyatt Barnes gazed towards the direction of the voice.

He saw a middle-aged man wearing the robes issued by the Immortal Master Alliance coming towards him, and the Immortal Master robe was identical to the one he wore.

Both were top-grade alchemist’s ’Earth Character Immortal Master Robes’.

"It’s Dylan Sinclair, the lead alchemist of the Joyful Zen Sect!"

Just as Wyatt Barnes found the individual familiar, Hunter Swayer’s timely voice sounded in his ear.

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes also timely recalled:

The reason he found this middle-aged man familiar is precisely because he had seen him earlier when Joyful Zen Sect’s people came over.

The man was behind Maximus Lee, the elder ancestor of Joyful Zen Sect’s group.

"What is Dylan Sinclair doing here?"

Russel Yorke looked grim; he was certain that the lead alchemist of Joyful Zen Sect, Dylan Sinclair, coming over wouldn’t bring any good news.

"Alchemist Barnes, this Dylan Sinclair is the lead alchemist of Joyful Zen Sect, and his alchemical methods are superb; he can even refine top-grade Immortal Pills like ’Rowan Heaven Pill’."

At the same time, Hunter Swayer’s voice provided Wyatt Barnes with a reminder.

"Need anything?"

As Wyatt Barnes snapped back to reality, Dylan Sinclair had arrived not far from him. He gave him a slight look and asked.

"Hmph!"

Before Dylan Sinclair could respond to Wyatt Barnes, a cold snort sounded from afar, "Alchemist Sinclair, as the lead alchemist of our Joyful Zen Sect, wishes to meet you, the lead alchemist of Taiyi Immortal Sect!"

After the voice, another figure began walking towards Wyatt Barnes.
