Chapter 3016: Two Great Geniuses

"This is his true form!"

After the elder was killed by Wyatt Fortin, who emerged from within the blood-eyed Wyatt Fortin and transformed himself into a sword, a middle-aged man not far from Jalen Bell exclaimed in shock.

"The one with the blood eyes is merely his doppelg?nger... More accurately, it’s his Profound Meaning doppelg?nger!"

The middle-aged man said.

"Judging by his actions, it seems he has comprehended one of the Four Supreme Laws, the ’Law of Death’!"

Another young man’s pupils shrank, his face also showing a full expression of shock, "As far as I know, among the many profound meanings of the Law of Death, there’s one called ’Undead Doppelg?nger’!"

"The Profound Meaning of Undead Doppelg?nger allows someone who comprehends this law to create an additional body that is almost real, with stronger defense than the true form and battle strength not weaker than the true form."

"Meanwhile, this doppelg?nger can also use the Immortal Artifact of the true form, as well as other profound meanings mastered by the true form..."

"The true form can fight alongside the doppelg?nger or hide within the undead doppelg?nger, acting at the opportune moment to deliver a fatal strike at the most crucial time!"

As the young man spoke later, his gaze towards the two Wyatt Fortins in the void completely changed.

Whoosh!

At the same time, under everyone’s watchful eyes, the blood-eyed Wyatt Fortin suddenly flashed and entered the body of the other Wyatt Fortin, as if he had never appeared.

At the same time, the Origin Force that was pulsating on Wyatt Fortin’s body completely disappeared, and he stood there, calm and composed.

"The Law of Death?"

"This Wyatt Fortin has comprehended the law... and it’s the Law of Death? Oh my! The Law of Death, that’s one of the Four Supreme Laws, something that can’t be comprehended through Immortal Methods or Divine Ability, needing a chance, a fortuitous encounter, or inheritance."

"Among the power of laws between heaven and earth, comprehending the Four Supreme Laws is the most demanding... And this Wyatt Fortin, not yet a hundred years old, has comprehended the Law of Death and clearly mastered two profound meanings of it, he’s truly a prodigy among prodigies!"

"His talent surpasses even Wyatt Barnes! After all, what he comprehends is the Law of Death, one of the Four Supreme Laws!"

...

The remaining Jalen Bell and others, at this time, snapped back to reality, also shocked by the strength Wyatt Fortin displayed.

They never expected Wyatt Fortin to have such frightening power, even surpassing Wyatt Barnes.

Instantly, they exchanged a glance, seeing a wry smile on each other’s faces.

Previously, they thought of themselves as rare talents.

But now, in front of Wyatt Barnes and Wyatt Fortin, they dared not consider themselves geniuses anymore, feeling utterly shattered.

Wyatt Barnes, not yet a hundred years old, has comprehended two profound meanings of the Earth-attribute Law.

Wyatt Fortin, not yet a hundred years old, has comprehended two profound meanings of the Law of Death.

Phew!

After killing the elder, Wyatt Fortin reached out to collect the last King Grade Immortal Artifact, while Jalen Bell and his five companions watched with open eyes, not daring to stop him.

They clearly understood that if they dared to act now, certain death would await!

"His previous cloak seems to be a purely defensive Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact? With that artifact, why would he still want this King Grade Immortal Artifact?"

Jalen Bell felt puzzled about this.

"Ha!"

And almost as soon as Jalen Bell finished speaking, another young man nearby sneered, "Let me ask you, if you had a purely defensive Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact, would you dare to take it out and use it easily?"

"Exactly! Because we’re in the Immortal Sovereign’s Palace, and we’ll forget everything that happened once we leave here, he dares to use that purely defensive Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact, knowing that no one will reveal his possession of such an artifact."

"It’s precisely because we’re in the Immortal Sovereign’s Palace; if we weren’t, he would likely directly attack us to silence us."

"He probably wouldn’t dare to kill indiscriminately... After all, if we all died, it would accelerate his own departure from the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm. Once a certain number of people perish, the realm opens again to send those inside back out."

"Exactly! In this process, even Immortal Sovereign Palace members can’t loiter too much. Otherwise, they might end up trapped within the South Heaven’s Ancient Realm."

...

Clearly, the others also guessed the reason Wyatt Fortin dared to use an Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact here, and they understood that without necessity, those like Wyatt Fortin and Wyatt Barnes wouldn’t kill indiscriminately here.

"Now that the first rewards from the Immortal Sovereign’s Palace test have been taken by those two, what should we do next?"

Jalen Bell looked around, seeing nothing but the ten great halls and the seemingly endless darkness in the distance.

The others began searching everywhere but couldn’t find any clues or methods to leave this place.

"We should wait... probably for a while."

In the end, they unanimously reached this conclusion.

Meanwhile, Jalen Bell and others saw Wyatt Fortin, who had collected the last King Grade Immortal Artifact, descending through the air, landing once again beside Wyatt Barnes.

"It’s truly strange how they can coexist peacefully... Could they have reached some sort of agreement when they first entered that hall?"

"Possibly."

"Based on my guess, the reason Wyatt Barnes left behind one King Grade Immortal Artifact likely relates to a prior discussion with Wyatt Fortin to leave it for him."

"I think so too. Otherwise, given Wyatt Barnes’s strength, he could have claimed all three King Grade Immortal Artifacts."

"I initially hoped they would clash, but now it seems they won’t contend for a while after all."

...

As Jalen Bell and others fixed their gaze on Wyatt Barnes and Wyatt Fortin, watching them coexist peacefully, what little hope they had was overshadowed by disappointment.

These two people, standing there, were like two dark clouds overshadowing their hearts, making them feel somewhat gloomy.

"If we can leave them behind later, I must stay far away from them... With them around, what benefits can we get?"

"I feel the same way."

"I hope there’s a chance to stay away from them... Otherwise, even if we survive and leave South Heaven’s Ancient Realm, we certainly won’t gain anything in this Immortal Sovereign Hall."

...

Currently, Jalen Bell and others are hoping to part ways with Wyatt Barnes and his companion because as long as Wyatt is around, anything they fancy will certainly not be theirs.

After a while, seeing that there was still no movement, some people began to chat idly:

"Speaking of which, among the people entering South Heaven’s Ancient Realm this time, from what I know, there are seven pinnacle Upper Immortals who have comprehended two kinds of Law Rules’ profound meanings!"

A middle-aged man said.

"Seven? So many? I only know of five."

Another young man said.

...

As people were chatting idly, time passed quickly.

"There’s also the Hawkins family’s genius, Declan Hawkins, who has comprehended two kinds of Wind System Law Rules’ profound meanings. His strength is extraordinary... It’s said that apart from comprehending the basic profound meaning of Wind System Law Rules ’Element of Wind’, he has also comprehended the Wind System Law Rules’ profound meaning ’Profound Meaning of Swiftness’!"

"Profound Meaning of Swiftness? One of the speed-oriented profound meanings in Wind System Law Rules? This Profound Meaning of Swiftness seems to enhance not only attack speed but also the speed of one’s movement skills!"

"The Wind System Law Rules is inherently skilled in speed, emphasizing transforming one’s body into wind... That Declan Hawkins, comprehending the Profound Meaning of Swiftness from Wind System Law Rules, among those entering South Heaven’s Ancient Realm’s lower realm this time, unless there’s someone who has comprehended three kinds of Law Rules’ profound meanings, they are basically unlikely to defeat him, let alone kill him!"

"That’s for sure! Declan Hawkins comprehends the Wind System Law Rules’ Element of Wind profound meaning and Profound Meaning of Swiftness, his speed is unrivaled among those entering South Heaven’s Ancient Realm this time... If he can’t win, he can completely escape!"

"Speed ensures an invincible position."

...

Initially, as people chatted about Wyatt Barnes, he only listened casually, but when he heard them mention Hawkins’ Declan Hawkins, his expression couldn’t help but become somewhat strange.

Declan Hawkins?

Fast speed, invincible position?

"Why? Do you know Declan Hawkins?"

Bruno Fortin often observed Wyatt Barnes, so the change in Wyatt’s expression was also noted by him, prompting him to curiously transmit his voice and ask.

"I wouldn’t say I know him, just happened to encounter him before entering the Immortal Sovereign Hall."

Wyatt Barnes replied calmly via transmitted sound.

"Did you fight?"

Bruno asked again.

Wyatt Barnes nodded.

"Comprehended two kinds of Wind System Law Rules’ profound meanings, where one profound meaning is the Profound Meaning of Swiftness... Against him, unless using Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact or divine artifacts, it’s basically impossible to kill him."

Bruno transmitted his voice to this point, paused, and then asked: "You fought him, with his speed, unless you used the divine artifacts in your body... Otherwise, killing him would be nearly impossible."

"Is he... dead?"

Bruno asked.

Wyatt Barnes nodded again.

"Did you use divine artifacts?"

Bruno asked again, while Wyatt Barnes shook his head.

Just as Bruno furrowed his brow, Wyatt Barnes said calmly: "Although I didn’t use divine artifacts, I used an Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact."

"Even if you used a pure offensive Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact, it probably wasn’t easy to kill him, right? After all, from the profound meaning of Earth-attribute Law you’ve comprehended, you’re not skilled in speed."

Bruno said piercingly.

"You’re quite calculating... Well, I also used some obscure techniques."

Wyatt Barnes chuckled lightly.

Bruno had calculated the battle between him and Declan Hawkins very accurately.

At that time, although he used an Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact, without the slight aid of the Gravity Space’s profound meaning that he comprehended, he couldn’t have killed Declan Hawkins.

Although the Gravity Space’s profound meaning he comprehended was still a distance from entry, with little impact on strength, at critical moments, it still played a bit of a role.

Just like his battle with Declan Hawkins that day, because of the little role of the Gravity Space’s profound meaning, he killed Declan Hawkins.

Without it, Declan Hawkins would certainly have been able to escape.

"What obscure techniques?"

Bruno asked again.

Before Wyatt Barnes could respond, Bruno suddenly felt his footing vanish, and after a moment, the sense of solid ground returned.

His vision flashed, and he realized he was no longer in the original place, but had appeared in another entirely new location.
