Chapter 1338: Chapter 1338: Three-Legged Golden Crow
"No, that’s not right!"
Karina Hanson, who had just voiced a guess, suddenly shook her head in denial as if she had rembered sothing, "Rumors say that the ’Haotian Tower’ is in the hands of a top expert in the Saint Realm of our generation... It’s impossible for it to appear here."
"If it’s not the ’Haotian Tower’... then what could it be?"
Emperor Yonah muttered to himself as he looked at the exquisite small tower in Wyatt Barnes’s hand, his brows furrowed in confusion, clueless from beginning to end.
At that mont.
Neither Karina Hanson, Emperor Yonah, nor the three Vice Island Chiefs of Crescent Island noticed... Wyatt Barnes’s body trembled imperceptibly.
At the sa ti, a gleam flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"I rember now! I’ve rembered!"
Wyatt Barnes looked at the small exquisite tower in his hand, his emotions surging, "The Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda... it’s the divine treasure from the old mythological tales of ’Huaxia’ on Earth in my previous life, which was in the hands of King of Tota ’Boone Lee’!"
There were various versions of the legend about King of Tota ’Boone Lee’ in his previous life... but all versions ntioned the divine treasure in his possession, the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda!
However, Wyatt Barnes soon cald down again, "Perhaps it’s just a coincidence, just the sa na."
Before, he didn’t believe in those ancient mythological legends from his previous life, as they seed too far-fetched.
However, after coming to this world, his thoughts had changed.
Moreover, as the saying goes ’without wind there can’t be waves’, these old mythological legends, having been passed down, could very likely be true.
If the legends were true, then perhaps the characters ntioned in them were real as well.
"As a descendant of ’Yan Huang Earth’, why do you appear here?"
Suddenly, an aged voice ca at him again, startling Wyatt Barnes.
This ti, Wyatt Barnes heard it clearly; this voice that only he could hear was coming from the bottommost layer of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda.
"Who are you?"
Wyatt Barnes asked, sending his question with Origin Force concentrated into a voice, into the lowest layer of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, full of curiosity.
"? I am the unique ’Three-legged Golden Crow’ under the vast sky... The people of later generations from ’Yan Huang Earth’ called
’Sun Bird God’."
The aged voice continued, revealing its identity.
"Three-legged Golden Crow? Sun Bird God?"
Wyatt Barnes felt a violent jolt in his heart, filled with shock and disbelief in his voice fueled by Origin Force, "You... are you the last Three-legged Golden Crow that escaped Hou Yi’s arrows according to the legends?"
Wyatt Barnes rembered.
In his previous life, there was a legend about ’Hou Yi Shooting the Suns.’
In the legend, ten suns appeared in the sky, in addition to the one original sun. These ten new suns were actually ten Golden Crows, ten mischievous Golden Crows... said to be the children of the Heavenly Emperor.
The appearance of eleven suns scorched the earth and made the lives of the people miserable.
It was then that a human strongman nad ’Hou Yi’ took action. With his unmatched archery skills, he shot down nine of the Golden Crows, with only one escaping far away.
"I’m surprised you know about these... These are matters from a long ti ago."
The aged voice continued, sounding very calm, as if unmoved by the waves of the ocean.
However, by saying that, he clearly confird his identity.
He was the ’Three-legged Golden Crow’ that escaped Hou Yi’s arrows in the ancient mythological tales of Wyatt Barnes’s past life and was also known as ’Sun Bird God’ by the people of later generations.
"You... you truly are the Three-legged Golden Crow?"
Wyatt Barnes inhaled a breath of cold air, speaking with so excitent, "Does this an, like , you also co from Earth?"
"Earth?"
The Golden Crow’s tone was full of bewildernt.
"Yan Huang Earth is located upon Earth."
Wyatt Barnes explained.
"Yan Huang Earth... I left there long ago, so long that even I can’t rember how much ti has passed. As for what you call Earth, we nad it ’Yan Huang Star’."
The Golden Crow explained.
"Yan Huang Star, that’s my ho."
The Golden Crow sounded a bit nostalgic toward the end.
"Yan Huang Star?"
Wyatt Barnes was startled; this was the first ti he’d heard Earth called by another na, though this wasn’t his main focus at the mont.
"How did you co here?"
The Golden Crow asked again, "I can feel the essence of a Yan Huang Earth descendant in your soul... Your hotown must also be on Yan Huang Star."
"I was killed due to an accident, and my soul crossed over to this world, where I was reborn in another body."
Wyatt Barnes said with a bitter smile.
"Can it even happen like that?"
The tone of the Golden Crow was filled with surprise, evidently unable to grasp Wyatt Barnes’s experience.
"And how did you get here?"
Wyatt Barnes asked.
A hint of excitent stirred within him.
The Golden Crow, like him, ca from Earth.
However, on Earth, he was just an ordinary human, whereas the Golden Crow was a powerful being from the old mythological legends, possessing strength comparable to that of gods and immortals.
He was full of curiosity as to how the Golden Crow had co to be here.
"Perhaps, I could have a chance to return to Earth."
Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.
"I ca here with the Jewel Tower... Before that guy Boone Lee was killed, he forcefully tore through space, throwing the Jewel Tower into the spatial turbulence."
The Golden Crow recalled: "After the Jewel Tower was thrown into the spatial turbulence, it was severely damaged, and I was gravely injured... It was not until a hundred years ago that I finally regained consciousness and began to heal myself."
"Boone Lee? Are you talking about King of Tota ’Boone Lee’? Fire Boy’s father?"
Wyatt Barnes took another inward gasp and asked.
"Yes."
The Golden Crow huffed: "He is a useless fellow! That old monk Randeng actually gave him the Jewel Tower; such a waste of heavenly resources."
"The Jewel Tower was damaged, not only was I seriously injured, but the other six celestial treasures within the Jewel Tower were also damaged... I don’t know when they will be restored."
Towards the end, the Golden Crow sighed.
"The other six celestial treasures?"
Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes’ eyes sparkled.
However, before he could continue to question the Golden Crow, the voice of Emperor Yonah already reached his ears, "Boy, our business is settled... I should leave now and head to the Martial Dao Sacred Land."
After speaking to Wyatt Barnes, Emperor Yonah left without even bidding farewell to the three Vice Island Chiefs of Crescent Island.
Imdiately after, Wyatt Barnes called out to Karina Hanson and took the three Vice Island Chiefs back to Crescent Island.
After returning to Crescent Island, Wyatt Barnes went back to the mansion he had lived in for the past year and returned to his own room, without even managing to greet the two girls and the three little ones.
Once back in his room, Wyatt Barnes intently gazed at the Jewel Tower in his hand and asked, "You just ntioned that there are six other celestial treasures within the Jewel Tower?"
"Of course! It’s because it houses seven treasures that it’s called the ’Jewel Tower’."
The Golden Crow said.
"Seven treasures? Apart from the six celestial treasures, what’s the seventh treasure?"
Wyatt Barnes asked, puzzled.
"The seventh treasure, naturally, is ."
The Golden Crow said again.
"I almost forgot about you."
Wyatt Barnes gave an awkward smile, then continued to ask, "What are the six other celestial treasures you just ntioned?"
"The six celestial treasures are the ’Splendid Fairy Sword’, ’Astonishing Halberd’, ’Heaven and Earth Ruler’, ’Sky-Net Umbrella’, ’World-Purifying Whisk’, and ’Heaven-Piercing Spike’."
The Golden Crow said.
"Could I borrow one to use?"
Wyatt Barnes’ eyes shone with desire as he asked.
The six celestial treasures, just by their nas, it was clear that they were all divine weapons. If he could obtain even one of them, wouldn’t that make him invincible?
Those were celestial treasures, after all!
In the face of ’celestial treasures’, even the top ten ’super sacred artifacts’ listed in the Top Ten Sacred Artifact List from the Martial Dao Sacred Land probably wouldn’t amount to much.
"If you want to use one, get it yourself! They are each located on the second to seventh layers of the Jewel Tower."
The Golden Crow said.
"Get it myself? How do I do that?"
Wyatt Barnes looked at the Jewel Tower in his hand, "Do I need to find a spacious place, let the Jewel Tower turn into a real gigantic tower, and then enter it?"
"When we were at the bottom of the sea just now, the Jewel Tower already recognized you as its master... Now, you only need a thought to enter the Jewel Tower."
The Golden Crow said.
"A thought?"
Wyatt Barnes looked at the Jewel Tower in his hand. With a thought, he felt a flash before his eyes, arriving at a strange place.
Here was a space that was spacious and vast.
As soon as he entered, he felt waves of scorching breath hit his face, making him feel as though he was in a world of fire... A mont later, the scorching breath finally disappeared.
At the sa ti, Wyatt Barnes saw a large bird suddenly appear before him, a large bird with golden flas burning all over its body.
The most significant difference between this large bird and ordinary flying beasts was that it had three legs.
Ordinary flying beasts have only two legs.
"You... You are the Golden Crow?"
Looking at the fla-covered large bird that had retracted its aura, Wyatt Barnes took in a cold breath and asked in astonishnt.
"Yes."
The bird of fla, or the Golden Crow, nodded, "This is the first layer of the Jewel Tower... After the Jewel Tower was lost in the spatial turbulence, it was seriously damaged."
"At present, only the first layer has been restored... Also, it is because of this that I was able to wake up."
The Golden Crow continued to say.
It was one of the ’seven treasures’ within the Jewel Tower, guarding the first and most important layer of the Jewel Tower... To reach the second layer, one must go through the first layer.
"You just said... the Jewel Tower recognized
as its master? When did that happen?"
Wyatt Barnes asked.
What he wanted to know most was this, because he rembered he didn’t do anything to make the Jewel Tower acknowledge a master.
To be acknowledged by the artifact usually requires blood, right?
"The mont the Jewel Tower assisted you in your rebirth, it had already accepted you as its master."
The Golden Crow said.
