Chapter 3081: Journey to Jade Emperor Heaven

Just when Bruno Fortin thought Wyatt Barnes would be forced to retreat step by step under his fierce assault, an unforeseen scene appeared:

Facing his raging onslaught, Wyatt not only showed no intention of backing away, but instead rushed straight forward, charging head?on toward him.

Whoosh!!

Flames surged wildly over Wyatt’s entire body, his whole person seeming to become one with the fire itself as he rushed to meet Bruno Fortin who was streaking toward him.

Bang! Bang!

As he closed in, Wyatt’s arms shook, both palms slamming out and tearing through the air, the momentum overwhelming.

In that instant.

Boom!!

Rumble!!

...

Two magma?like torrents of power howled out from his palms, filled with a terrifying burning force that made even the air in the void they passed through emit a faint scorched smell.

Fire element!

Skimming Mystery!

Burn Mystery!

With this strike, Wyatt unleashed three Mysteries of the fire Law Rule at once, and as that magma?like power swept out, the flames burning over its surface showed streaks of explosive fissures, like clusters of miniature brilliant fireworks.

Clearly, at this moment Wyatt also brought out the Explosive Secrets he’d only grasped the fur, using them as well, as if pouring in his full strength.

At least, that’s how it looked to Bruno Fortin.

"Overestimating yourself!"

Facing the twin torrents of magma?like power roaring out from Wyatt’s palms, Bruno sneered coldly in his heart.

In the next moment.

As Bruno’s hands moved rapidly, the scythes in the void accelerated even further, colliding head?on with the magma?like torrents of power howling out from Wyatt’s palms.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

...

The scythe?blades’ radiance flared, and the black power, once it swept out, was as if it would drown this bright world, plunging light completely into darkness.

Yet facing that darkness, the two magma?like torrents of power were like two meteors cleaving through the dark, illuminating it.

A moment later, Wyatt and Bruno’s attacks crashed together.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

...

The scythe?blades rampaged; the instant they touched Wyatt’s power, they utterly suppressed it, crushing it like rotten wood, tyrannical beyond compare.

"You’ve lost."

Excitement burst in Bruno Fortin’s eyes, and his lips curled in a victorious smile.

At the same time, he looked at Wyatt with eager anticipation, wanting to see Wyatt’s dejected expression when he realized he was about to lose.

However, in the next instant Bruno immediately discovered:

The look of dejection he’d imagined did not appear on Wyatt’s face; instead, what appeared was a confident smile he had never expected.

He truly couldn’t understand—at a time like this, on what basis was Wyatt this confident?

"Could it be... that Wyatt still has a hidden trump card?"

Bruno’s heart gave a jolt, but as he thought it over, he felt that was unlikely.

"No... it’s you who’s lost."

Just as Bruno was convincing himself that Wyatt couldn’t possibly have a trump card left, Wyatt’s voice arrived in his ears right on cue.

At the same time.

"Th?this... how is this possible?!"

Bruno was horrified to find that the fiery power that had originally been suppressed by his offensive, and was on the verge of being shattered by it, suddenly erupted in an instant, like a force compressed to the extreme detonating all at once.

Boom!!

Rumble!!

...

A deafening blast like heaven and earth overturning resounded, and a gigantic, fire?red mushroom cloud appeared above the towering mountain range. Then a gray figure was blown back in utter disarray, tumbling through the air, and with it came a mouthful of clotted blood wildly spurted from the figure’s owner.

Blood sprayed across the sky, dotting the massive firework in midair, making it all the more dazzling and harsh to the eyes.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

...

After the fire?red mushroom cloud unfolded, a scorching gale swept across the entire mountain range, and many dried flowers and grasses caught fire and began to burn.

A few moments later, more than half of the vast mountains had fallen into a sea of blazing flames, and the fire’s momentum was only growing.

Wildfire devouring the plains—nothing could surpass this.

Once the fire?red mushroom cloud gradually dispersed, in the stretch of void where it had appeared, a lone figure stood there like a Divine Being.

Clad in violet robes, sword?brows and starry eyes, incomparably handsome.

The young man stood there, his lazy gaze hanging downward, landing on the ragged figure in the distance that had only just managed to stop tumbling.

At the corner of his mouth, a faint smile played.

"I held back, you know... otherwise, there’s no way your injuries would be this light."

Wyatt looked at Bruno Fortin, who was stepping through the air from afar, his whole body rather bedraggled, and spoke with a light smile.

"That move just now... was the Explosive Secrets?"

In this moment, the disheveled Bruno Fortin had no intention of minding his image. He arrived before Wyatt, his expression heavy as he looked at Wyatt and asked.

The only reason he asked that was because he could clearly feel the role Wyatt Barnes’s Explosive Secrets had played in that strike just now.

Wyatt Barnes’s Explosive Secrets was still only at the level of a superficial grasp of the profundity.

Yet that sudden burst of power just now was extremely similar to Explosive Secrets, and even a few degrees stronger than Explosive Secrets at the entry level.

It was precisely because of this that he asked.

However, he could also be certain that this sudden eruption of power came from within Wyatt Barnes himself, not from any external force, and even less could it be power bestowed by an Immortal Talisman.

"So it’s fine for you to have bloodline power, but not me?"

Wyatt looked at Bruno Fortin with a half-smile.

"Yours... is also bloodline power?"

Bruno Fortin’s pupils shrank, and a look of shock surfaced on his face. "So that means... you are also a descendant of The Strongest One?"

Their Bruno clan, like most ancient families in the Divine Ruin Lands, all carried the bloodline of The Strongest One within them.

Precisely because of that, everyone of the Bruno bloodline inherited the unique bloodline power of the Bruno clan.

Generally speaking, only descendants of The Strongest One were likely to possess bloodline power.

Hearing Bruno Fortin’s words, Wyatt Barnes was stunned inwardly. "Bloodline power... is actually related to The Strongest One?"

At the same time, he promptly questioned the Chaos Divine Flame.

Very soon, he received the response from the Chaos Divine Flame. "People from the gods’ planes are mostly descendants of The Strongest One, and they all possess bloodline power within their bodies."

"On the mortal planes and Heavenly planes, those who possess bloodline power are extremely rare. Even if there are some, they basically all originate from the gods’ planes."

"But in the gods’ planes, people with bloodline power in their bodies are simply too many to count."

The Chaos Divine Flame said.

After listening to what the Chaos Divine Flame said, Wyatt Barnes suddenly understood.

So that’s where bloodline power comes from. No wonder Bruno Fortin was shocked that he possessed bloodline power, shocked that he was also a descendant of The Strongest One.

After all, in the past, in Bruno Fortin’s eyes, he was not someone from the gods’ planes.

"You’ve lost."

Facing Bruno Fortin’s questioning, Wyatt Barnes didn’t answer him directly. Instead, he looked at him with a teasing expression.

From the first time he met Bruno Fortin, and later when he interacted with him, he could feel that Bruno Fortin was a proud and conceited person.

The last time, at Cloud Mist Lake, before Bruno Fortin went to the Cloud Loft Immortal Sect, he had even threatened Wyatt with his words.

That time had made Wyatt very displeased, and because of that, he and Bruno Fortin had agreed that once they arrived at Mystic Abyss Mansion, they would have a battle.

Today, his battle with Bruno Fortin came ahead of schedule, and he had claimed the final victory.

Right now, what he wanted to see was Bruno Fortin’s expression after being defeated in front of him. He always felt that someone like Bruno Fortin should find it very hard to accept such a defeat.

However, what happened next was beyond Wyatt Barnes’s expectations.

"Mm, I lost."

Facing Wyatt Barnes’s teasing, Bruno Fortin nodded, his face showing no change at all.

"That’s it?"

Seeing Bruno Fortin so composed, Wyatt Barnes was instead a bit surprised, feeling that Bruno Fortin’s reaction was somewhat abnormal.

Someone as conceited as Bruno Fortin, at a time like this, even if he didn’t fly into a rage, surely couldn’t remain this calm, right?

"Since you’re also from the gods’ planes, and we’re of similar age, the fact you barely edge me out by a bit isn’t anything strange..."

Seeing Wyatt Barnes’s surprise, Bruno Fortin said indifferently.

As his voice fell, a sharp light flashed between his eyes at just the right moment. "But, one day, I will defeat you!"

Hearing Bruno Fortin say that, Wyatt Barnes finally realized why Bruno Fortin could remain so calm after losing.

Turns out, he had genuinely accepted that Wyatt possessed bloodline power.

Through the fact that Wyatt had bloodline power, Bruno Fortin subconsciously concluded that even if Wyatt wasn’t from the Divine Ruin Lands, he was at least from some other gods’ plane.

Wyatt Barnes smiled wryly.

Why did he have to say he also possessed bloodline power?

He was perfectly clear in his heart:

For someone as conceited as Bruno Fortin, being barely outclassed by someone of similar age, who also comes from the gods’ planes, was something he could reluctantly accept.

But if he were defeated by someone who wasn’t from the gods’ planes, that would certainly be a massive blow.

...

Time flew like a white colt passing a crack.

In the blink of an eye, ten months had passed.

Above the central plaza of Busan City, beyond the clouds and mist, within one of Cloud Loft’s heaven-grade courtyards named ’Heavenly Unity Court’, two figures stepped out into the air.

It was exactly Wyatt Barnes and Bruno Fortin.

This time, the two came out and went straight to the counter on the plaza below to check out of their rooms, then walked together toward the rear of the plaza.

The Heavenly planes’ teleportation array in Busan City was located there.

Busan City, as a city under Mystic Abyss Mansion’s jurisdiction, had a Heavenly planes’ teleportation array set up by Mystic Abyss Mansion that was far better than the ones in ordinary places within Mystic Abyss Mansion’s territory.

Through the Heavenly planes’ teleportation array here, one could designate a specific place in another Heavenly plane to travel to.

Of course, it could only be precise to a regional unit like ’Mystic Abyss Mansion’ in South Heaven’s Borderlands of Spiritual Heaven.

"Where exactly in Jade Emperor Heaven are we heading this time?"

Walking side by side with Bruno Fortin toward the location of the Heavenly planes’ teleportation array, Wyatt Barnes looked at Bruno Fortin and asked.

"Jade Emperor Heaven, Heaven-Balancing Borderlands, Swallow Mountain Mansion."

Bruno Fortin said.
