Ti flies like a white colt slipping past.
In the blink of an eye, another half a month has passed.
Amidst the anticipation of all humans and Sacred Beasts in the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land, the day Wyatt Barnes announced a duel with the strongest of the Demon Race a month ago has finally arrived.
In the middle territory, a thousand miles north of Sin City, early in the morning, a crowd of humans and mbers of the Demon Race gathered.
Generally, whenever a place gathers many humans and mbers of the Demon Race, it will beco a bloody battlefield...
However, today, these humans and mbers of the Demon Race seed to have made an agreent, standing on either side of the void, peacefully.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
...
Accompanied by the rapid sound of rushing wind, more humans and mbers of the Demon Race ca, and upon arrival, they each entered their respective camps.
The human camp and Demon Race camp stood on either side, opposing each other, like a vast army of celestial soldiers facing off.
Ti slipped by quietly.
As it approached noon, fewer and fewer people arrived.
And now, the number of humans and demons present had reached quite a terrifying level.
From afar, it was a vast, uncountable crowd...
"Why hasn’t he arrived yet?"
"Why the rush... Wyatt Barnes just said he would challenge the strongest of the Demon Race today but never ntioned when he would co; it’s only been half a day today, so just wait patiently."
"Exactly! Are you worried Wyatt Barnes won’t dare to co? Don’t forget, this duel today is initiated by him!"
"I’ve heard that Wyatt’s own strength is already comparable to that of a ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’... Even if he faces the Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, though it may be hard for him to defeat the opponent, it’s certainly impossible for the opponent to defeat him."
"Indeed. With Wyatt’s strength, the Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal can at most fight him to a draw."
...
Within the human camp, a group of humans whispered and discussed fervently.
Naturally, their topic of discussion was one of today’s main figures, ’Wyatt Barnes,’ who was also a strong human.
Back when Wyatt battled the Clan Chief of the Dragonsmith Clan to a draw, the news had spread through the Upper Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
Hence, these humans were well aware that Wyatt Barnes possessed strength comparable to a ’half-step immortal.’
"Humph! Even if Wyatt can only fight the Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal to a draw, so what? Don’t forget, his wife can easily kill a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal!"
Quickly, soone else muttered.
His words imdiately sparked a strong agreent among the humans:
"Indeed! Wyatt’s wife is soone who can easily kill a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal. As long as she makes a move today, the strongest of the Demon Race will surely die, even if they are a Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal!"
"Let’s just hope the Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal dare to co... He’s certainly heard about Wyatt’s wife’s prowess."
"If that’s the case, the Demon Race not only loses face today but will also face disaster... after all, Wyatt said a month ago that if the strongest of the Demon Race fails to show, he will annihilate all mbers of the Demon Race!"
"So mighty! Absolutely mighty!"
...
At this ntion, a group of humans on the scene couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride.
After all, Wyatt Barnes is a formidable force from their human kind, a source of pride for humans.
He’s also the hope of humanity to repel the Demon Race, driving them back to their exile lands, and potentially exterminating them!
"However, no one really expected... the rising fa of Wyatt Barnes back in his Fire Worship Sect days would lead to such achievents today."
"Indeed. At that ti, just witnessing soone from the Lower Domain make a na for themselves in the Upper Domain was shocking... but looking back now, every one of us underestimated him then."
"Who could have imagined... a young man from the Lower Domain would, at less than a century old, achieve such unbelievable feats today!"
"Anyway... having him is humanity’s fortune!"
"Certainly."
...
anwhile, many recalled Wyatt Barnes’s past and couldn’t help but sigh.
After all, Wyatt is soone they’ve witnessed growing step by step to where he stands today.
"This ti, as long as Wyatt Barnes can drive the Demon Race back to their exile lands... he will be immortalized, becoming a legend akin to that of the Sword Saint, ’Breezy Wind’!"
"No! If he can drive the Demon Race back to their exile lands, he will beco an even greater legend than the Sword Saint Breezy Wind ever was! After all, not only does his strength match that of Breezy Wind back then, he has also made trendous contributions to humanity!"
"Yes. His contributions to humanity are unmatched by Breezy Wind of old."
...
Now, many could almost see scenes of Wyatt Barnes and his wife driving the Demon Race back to the ’exile lands.’
Unlike the vibrancy among the humans, the Demon Race’s side was deadly silent.
Every mber of the Demon Race had a somber expression.
"Do you think... our Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal will really co?"
One mber of the Cow Demon Clan asked the others nearby.
"It’s hard to say."
"If I were him, I probably wouldn’t co... after all, though he might handle Wyatt Barnes, Wyatt’s wife would easily kill him!"
"Knowing it’s certain death, staying away is understandable."
"However, I still hope he cos... after all, if he doesn’t show up today, Wyatt Barnes will certainly co after us!"
"I also hope he cos... The reason I’m still here and not back in our holand ’Exile Plane’ is partly in hope, partly thinking Wyatt Barnes might not spare even if I do return."
"Yes. Given Wyatt Barnes and his wife’s strength, they could kill us regardless of whether we are in the Holy Domain Plane or return to the Exiled Plane; we are destined to et our end!"
...
Although most of the demons present do not believe their ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’ would attend Wyatt Barnes’ duel,
they still can’t help but show waves of anticipation in their eyes.
They all hope their strongest will step forward to protect them!
Now, as most demons anticipate their strongest’s arrival, their hearts are also filled with anxiety, fearing that their strongest truly won’t co.
If that’s the case, their demise is near.
However, a few demons remain quite calm.
These demons are almost all mbers of the ’Human Demon Clan’.
"He... should be arriving soon, right?"
Among the Human Demon Clan, Cody Yellow, a disciple of Sacred Wander Palace whom Wyatt Barnes knew from the past, is also here.
Currently, his eyes are filled with fervor and anticipation.
"It’s a pity Sister Isabella isn’t coming..."
Thinking of the woman who refused to co, Cody Yellow can’t help but sigh.
Of course, he knows why she chose not to co.
After all, this ti, when Wyatt Barnes challenges the strongest of the Demon Race, it’s unlikely he will co alone; his wife will most likely be beside him.
"Master... is finally appearing?"
Vast Johnson, the Palace Master of Sacred Wander Palace, has also arrived, his eyes filled with anticipation for his master, Wyatt Barnes.
Many from the forr Three Palaces and Six Courts of the Human Demon Clan have also arrived.
"He’s coming—"
Suddenly, soone exclaid, their voice overshadowing the noise of humans and demons present.
Instantly, all the humans and demons tensed.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
...
The next mont, a series of swift wind noises ca from afar, clearly reaching their ears, causing them to look towards the direction of the sound collectively.
The direction was to the north.
From the north, a total of eight figures were breaking through the air at an exaggerated speed...
Of course, with their speed, only a few powerful Scattered Immortals present could vaguely catch a glimpse of their figures.
"Infinite Great One is here!"
A demon Seven Tribulations Loose Immortal exclaid with joy.
"It’s Infinite Great One!"
Soon, another excited voice ca from a demon Seven Tribulations Loose Immortal.
"Infinite Great One?"
Upon hearing their exclamations, many demons were left bewildered.
But monts later, they learned from so Scattered Immortals who this ’Infinite Great One’ was.
"Infinite Great One... is our Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal, the strongest of our Demon Race in this era?!"
"He... he’s here?"
"I said... our Demon Race stands tall; our strongest wouldn’t back down easily!"
...
As a wave of excitent surged among the demons.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
...
A total of eight figures appeared like specters between the human and demon camps, revealing themselves to all present.
These eight people were led by an elderly man.
This elderly man had a dium build, an average appearance, so plain that if you threw him into a crowd, you’d never find him again.
But, this seemingly ordinary elder beca the focal point of the entire scene at this mont.
"Is this elder the strongest of the Demon Race? The ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’ of the Demon Race?"
Seeing the ’Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal’ of the Demon Race appear first, even those humans confident in Wyatt Barnes and his wife can’t help but inhale sharply, looking at the elder with trepidation.
After all, Wyatt Barnes hasn’t appeared yet.
If this old guy suddenly loses his temper and attacks them...
They will surely et their end!
"Wyatt Barnes... why hasn’t he arrived yet?"
"Hopefully, the Demon Race’s Nine Tribulations Loose Immortal won’t take out his anger on us due to Wyatt Barnes’ duel challenge..."
"Wyatt Barnes, hurry up and co!"
...
By now, it was already noon, and seeing Wyatt Barnes hadn’t arrived, the group of humans present beca anxious.
