Chapter 3062: Formation Master

Currently, Bradley Clark had no idea that he was at risk of being betrayed by the Blood Skeleton assassin in front of him at any moment.

According to his plan, if Wyatt Barnes didn’t show up, the Blood Skeleton assassin would kill Ismael Mullins before he woke up, ensuring his safety.

But once Wyatt Barnes came, the Blood Skeleton assassin’s focus would naturally be entirely on Wyatt.

By that time, whether Ismael Mullins woke up or if he might betray him would be of no concern to the Blood Skeleton assassin.

What the Blood Skeleton assassin cared about was only killing Wyatt Barnes and completing the orders given to him by his organization.

Never did Wyatt Barnes expect:

After half a year, he would once again receive a letter similar to the one he got half a year ago.

The content of the letter was almost the same.

However, the person used to threaten him in the letter was no longer Leilany, but his attendant, Ismael Mullins.

Moreover, he personally went to confirm that Ismael Mullins had indeed been abducted.

"Boldly entering and abducting your person... the person responsible could definitely not be an assassin from the Blood Skeleton organization!"

"Because once an assassin from the Blood Skeleton organization comes in, as a stranger, it would inevitably alarm the protective formations of our Bao Po Immortal Sect."

This was the reply from Liam Davidson, the Sect Leader of Bao Po Immortal Sect, to Wyatt Barnes after he informed him of Ismael Mullins’s abduction.

"Listening to the Sect Leader’s words... the perpetrator is very likely an insider? Someone from Bao Po Immortal Sect?"

Wyatt Barnes asked.

"Yes."

Liam Davidson’s response was very certain.

"In the letter, I am still asked to go alone... if you or an Immortal King from the sect accompany me, the insider might still inform the Blood Skeleton assassin."

Wyatt Barnes communicated.

"Wyatt Barnes, I had already planned for this... after you encountered that incident six months ago, I pretended to send my Second Brother on an errand outside."

When Liam Davidson replied again, his tone was confident, "Now, he is ready at any moment to respond to my call... This time, let him go with you to meet the Blood Skeleton assassin."

"Sect Leader, are you sure your Second Brother can protect me thoroughly?"

Wyatt Barnes asked directly.

Although he would definitely leave the Bao Po Immortal Sect base to rescue Ismael Mullins, he still wanted to be fully prepared before leaving.

After all, he wasn’t sure what strength of assassin the Blood Skeleton organization would send.

Of course, although he didn’t know the specific strength of the assassin the Blood Skeleton organization would send, he could still guess that they wouldn’t send too strong an assassin, at most one who could slightly suppress him.

In the eyes of the Blood Skeleton organization, he was not yet a peak Love Rowan Upper Immortal but a Ten Directions Immortal King who had comprehended two profound mysteries of the Earth-attribute Law.

Moreover, his Ten Directions Immortal King-level cultivation could rapidly decrease with just a bit of consumption, getting weaker and weaker.

"Rest assured."

Upon hearing Wyatt Barnes’s doubts, Liam Davidson remained confidently assured, "My Second Brother’s cultivation may only be at the Five Elements Immortal King level, but his comprehension of the Wind System Law is exceptionally high..."

"Within the Mystic Abyss Mansion territory, there’s basically no one among the Five Elements Immortal Kings who can match him."

"His strength is at least as strong as the Blood Skeleton organization’s Five Elements Immortal King-level assassins, and possibly even on par with their Six Harmonies Immortal King-level assassins!"

Liam Davidson said.

"Moreover, although your cultivation is still comparable to a Ten Directions Immortal King, the profundities you’ve comprehended are not strong... the Blood Skeleton organization wouldn’t send too strong an assassin."

"In my estimation... they would at most send a Five Elements Immortal King-level assassin! More likely, they would send a Four Symbols Immortal King-level assassin."

From Liam Davidson’s tone, it was clear he was very confident in his speculation.

"A Five Elements Immortal King-level assassin, my Second Brother is more than enough to suppress him... Over time, it wouldn’t be difficult to kill him!"

"Even if he doesn’t want to fight and tries to escape, given my Second Brother’s understanding of the Wind System Law, it’s not difficult to catch up. Even if he can’t kill him immediately, he can still notify me... once I arrive, the Blood Skeleton assassin is dead for sure!"

Liam Davidson continued.

"Hmm."

Liam Davidson’s words eventually reassured Wyatt Barnes completely.

"Sect Leader, when can I set out?"

Feeling reassured, Wyatt Barnes eagerly sent a message to Liam Davidson to ask when he could head out to rescue Ismael Mullins.

"You can leave now... My Second Brother is lurking not far outside the sect’s base. Moreover, his Immortal Beast form specializes in concealing itself. Even a Five Elements Immortal King-level Blood Skeleton assassin, or even a Six Harmonies Immortal King-level Blood Skeleton assassin, wouldn’t be able to detect him if he’s intentionally hiding."

Liam Davidson said.

"Where did the person tell you to go? Still to the east?"

Liam Davidson asked.

"West."

Wyatt Barnes replied.

"Alright, you may depart... Stay in contact at all times. I will also have my Second Brother follow closely behind you to ensure your safety."

With these words from Liam Davidson, Wyatt Barnes set off westward, venturing even further away from the location of the Embracing Inner Peace Sect than the last time.

Whoosh!

Upon leaving the sect, Wyatt naturally didn’t use his own Immortal Origin to travel; instead, he used an Immortal Boat to speed him along.

The most basic Immortal Boat is of Monarch Grade Immortal Artifact, and crafting one is quite complex. Before he joined the Embracing Inner Peace Sect, Wyatt had only heard of them but never seen one.

Monarch Grade Immortal Boats are divided into three qualities, with the better quality ones being faster...

The fastest ones are as swift as an Upper Immortal Lord using only Immortal Origin and not relying on any Law Rule.

The slowest ones are only as fast as a Lower Immortal Lord using Immortal Origin alone, without applying any Law Rule.

Thus lies the difference between high-quality and low-quality Monarch Grade Immortal Boats.

As for mid-quality Monarch Grade Immortal Boats, their speed rivals a Middle Immortal Lord traveling on Immortal Origin strength alone, without Law Rule augmentation.

The one Wyatt was sitting on was merely a low-quality Immortal Boat, which he’d purchased from an elder in the Embracing Inner Peace Sect with some Immortal Crystals before setting out.

The elder was a Monarch Grade Artifact Crafter capable of making Monarch Grade Immortal Boats and was the only one in the sect who could craft them.

However, he could only produce low-quality Monarch Grade Immortal Boats.

Up to now, he had crafted only two mid-quality Monarch Grade Immortal Boats and never successfully made a high-quality one.

"Here we are."

After traveling a full day and night by Immortal Boat, Wyatt arrived at the agreed-upon location mentioned in the letter.

The meeting place was a desolate plain, with a single large tree standing solitary there.

The tree was leafless, leaving only branches that were entirely cracked, and several wide fissures ran through the trunk, clearly indicating a lifeless tree.

"Soul Bead!"

On one of the branches, Wyatt discovered a Soul Bead. He wasn’t surprised by this, as this was part of the arrangements made in the letter.

After acquiring the Soul Bead, he attempted to contact the letter’s sender through the soul imprint on it.

However, just as Wyatt’s Divine Sense touched the soul imprint on the bead.

Swish!!

Rustle!!

...

Along with the sound of rustling like leaves fluttering, the branches on the nearby tree suddenly trembled.

Simultaneously, specks of white light appeared all over the branches, resembling twinkling stars.

These white specks of light extended and merged, collectively burst out in dazzling white light.

The white light appeared and instantly enveloped the entire tree, including Wyatt on its side.

At that moment, Wyatt only felt darkness before his eyes, his heart skipped a beat, "Is this... a teleportation formation?!"

"Oh no!"

Not far away, a cyan flying beast resembling a giant eagle appeared, as if it had been invisibly lurking in the void.

Upon revealing its form, the towering beast swiftly transformed into a young man in a green robe.

Facing the diminishing white light and the tree returning to its original state, the man’s face turned grim, "The assassin from the Blood Skeleton Clan... turned out to be a formations master?"

"This teleportation array was so discreetly set up that I didn’t detect any sign beforehand."

"Now, who knows where Wyatt Barnes has been sent to."

This green-robed young man was none other than Ismael Mullins, the Sect Leader Liam Davidson’s Second Brother, a Five Elements Immortal King capable of shapeshifting into an Immortal Beast.

Moreover, according to Liam Davidson, within the Mystic Abyss Mansion, practically no Five Elements Immortal King could rival his Second Brother.

This indicates the impressive strength of this green-robed young man.

Yet, even so, Wyatt vanished right under his watch!

"Indeed, it’s a disposable teleportation formation."

Though he guessed Wyatt triggered a one-time teleportation array, the green-robed young man still descended swiftly, examined the tree, and confirmed it was indeed a disposable teleportation array that spirited Wyatt away.

"Big Brother."

Taking a deep breath, the green-robed young man, with an unpleasant expression, contacted his Big Brother, the Sect Leader Liam Davidson, without delay.

Meanwhile, at the Embracing Inner Peace Sect, upon receiving the message from the green-robed young man, Liam Davidson’s previously calm demeanor swiftly turned sour:

"The Blood Skeleton Clan’s assassin turned out to be a formations master?"

Setting a disposable teleportation array on a withered tree at will, even with adequate materials, isn’t something just anyone can achieve.

Ordinary formations masters simply cannot do this.

A formations master of this caliber is indeed exceedingly rare within the Mystic Abyss Mansion.
