Legend of Wyatt

"That is true..."

Wyatt Barnes’s words were like a bucket of cold water dousing the trio of Hunter Swayer, waking them up considerably.

After a moment, Hunter Swayer gritted his teeth and said, "Alchemist Barnes, at most, the sect will put up that one Monarch Level Immortal Method and those two Monarch Level Divine Abilities as ’stakes’ for you... Anyway, with your insane speed at heating cauldrons, just comparing cauldron heating with others, you’ll definitely win!"

"At most, afterward, you can share the other Monarch Level Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities you win with the sect... This is also a good thing for the sect."

Hunter Swayer said.

"Indeed!"

As soon as Hunter Swayer finished speaking, Russel Yorke also nodded in agreement, "I believe, as long as Alchemist Barnes shows his cauldron heating speed in front of the Sect Leader... the Sect Leader will surely agree!"

"Taking a step back, even if the sect loses the one Monarch Level Immortal Method and the two Monarch Level Divine Abilities put up as stakes for Alchemist Barnes, they will still just be shared... After sharing, that one Monarch Level Immortal Method and the two Monarch Level Divine Abilities remain within the sect."

Russel Yorke said.

In the various heavenly planes, anyone who has comprehended any Immortal Method or Divine Ability to the extreme and thoroughly mastered it can inscribe that Immortal Method or Divine Ability in a memory Immortal Talisman for others to comprehend.

And in the Taichi Immortal Sect, besides the memory Immortal Talisman given to Wyatt by the sect leader, there are still quite a few spare memory Immortal Talismans.

Even without spare memory Immortal Talismans, not to mention the ’Gossip Immortal Lord’ from Taichi Immortal Sect, even the sect leader Daven Buckingham has comprehended that Immortal Method and those two Divine Abilities to the extreme and can inscribe corresponding memory Immortal Talismans at any time.

"And once they win... the sect can obtain a Monarch Level Immortal Method or Divine Ability that is both offensive and defensive or dual-speed capable!"

As he spoke, Russel Yorke’s eyes shone brightly.

"To bet with someone for a Monarch Level Immortal Method or Divine Ability that is both offensive and defensive or dual-speed capable... you’ll probably have to put up all three of the sect’s Monarch Level Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities together as stakes, right?"

Wyatt Barnes asked.

"Naturally!"

Hunter Swayer said matter-of-factly, "A Monarch Level Immortal Method or Divine Ability that is both offensive and defensive or dual-speed capable... if you only put up two Monarch Level Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities, no one will bet with you. At least three Monarch Level Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities are necessary!"

"I see."

Wyatt Barnes nodded, he understood this point.

After all, a dual-speed or offensive and defensive combined Immortal Method or Divine Ability, in the same tier, is indeed incomparable to a single Immortal Method or Divine Ability.

For example:

For the same person, it takes ten years each to fully comprehend either a movement-type Immortal Method or Divine Ability, or an attack-type Immortal Method or Divine Ability, totaling twenty years.

Whereas fully comprehending a dual-speed Immortal Method or Divine Ability of the same tier takes at most only fifteen years.

Spending twenty years versus fifteen years, while achieving the same increase in strength...

In such cases, the value of dual-speed Immortal Methods or Divine Abilities is naturally beyond comparison against single Immortal Methods or Divine Abilities of the same tier.

"Let’s go! Find the Sect Leader!"

Joshua Davies was more straightforward.

Just then, as the four of Wyatt Barnes were just leaving the residence of the Taichi Immortal Sect leader, Daven Buckingham, they turned back around.

"Fellow alchemists, why are you..."

Seeing the four of them return, Daven Buckingham looked puzzled.

"Sect Leader!"

Hunter Swayer was the first to step forward and said to Daven Buckingham, "It’s like this..."

In his words, Hunter Swayer explained Wyatt’s plan to participate in the ’Dan Tao Conference’ two years later, and he shared their strategy with Daven Buckingham.

"A Monarch Level Immortal Method or Divine Ability that is both offensive and defensive or dual-speed capable?"

Upon hearing of these two types of Immortal Methods or Divine Abilities, even Daven Buckingham, the leader of Taichi Immortal Sect, couldn’t help but have his breath quicken.

One must know that in the Desolate Territory, only three Immortal Sects, including their Taichi Immortal Sect, possess Monarch Level Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities, but the Monarch Level Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities of the three Immortal Sects are all single Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities.

There isn’t even one Monarch Level Immortal Method or Divine Ability that is both offensive and defensive or dual-speed capable.

Therefore, upon hearing that there was a chance to obtain those two types of Monarch Level Immortal Methods or Divine Abilities, even Daven Buckingham couldn’t help but be extremely excited.

"Alchemist Barnes, are you really sure?"

Daven Buckingham looked at Wyatt Barnes, asking seriously.

"Sect Leader."

Before Wyatt could open his mouth, Russel Yorke spoke out, bluntly asking, "You may not be an Alchemy Immortal Master, but you should know roughly how long it takes us Top-grade Alchemy Masters to heat a cauldron, right?"

"That I do know."

Daven Buckingham nodded, "Among the Top-grade Alchemy Masters in our Desolate Territory, it seems the quickest at heating a King Grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace is Jared Sinclair from the Thousand Spiders Immortal Sect... It seems Alchemist Sinclair takes only eight hours to heat it."

"And then there’s Alchemist Davies... Your cauldron heating speed is around eight and a half hours, right?"

Daven Buckingham looked towards the side at Joshua Davies.

"That’s right."

Joshua Davies nodded.

If it were before, before witnessing Wyatt Barnes’s cauldron heating speed, on hearing Daven Buckingham’s words, he would certainly feel proud and conceited.

But now, there is not a hint of arrogance or pride.

Simply because, standing beside him is a ’freak’ who can complete the heating cauldron process in just half an hour!

"Since the three alchemists are so confident in Alchemist Barnes’ heating cauldron speed... I think Alchemist Barnes’ heating cauldron speed shouldn’t exceed six hours, right?"

After Joshua Davies nodded in response, Daven Buckingham’s gaze once again fell on Wyatt Barnes, his eyes brimming with anticipation.

Although before Wyatt’s appearance, the top-grade alchemist in the Desolate Territory was none other than Jared Sinclair of Thousand Spider Immortal Sect, whose heating cauldron speed was the fastest, requiring only eight hours...

However, Jared Sinclair’s heating cauldron speed could only claim supremacy within the Desolate Territory.

Among the surrounding territories, it was nothing special.

In Daven’s view, unless Wyatt’s heating cauldron speed was less than six hours, it would be difficult to outshine all the top-grade alchemists in the surrounding territories.

"Six hours?"

And when Daven’s words fell, Wyatt couldn’t help but be taken aback.

Right now, Wyatt only had one thought in his mind:

"Is Daven Buckingham mocking me?"

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The other three top-grade alchemists of Taiyi Immortal Sect, Hunter Swayer, Russel Yorke, and Joshua Davies, upon hearing Daven ask Wyatt, couldn’t resist the twitches at the corners of their mouths.

"What? Is Alchemist Barnes’ heating cauldron speed longer than six hours?"

Seeing Wyatt stunned and then noticing Hunter Swayer and the others’ twitching expressions, Daven assumed he had been overly optimistic, his face revealing disappointment.

Once his words fell, before Wyatt and the others could speak, Daven bitterly asked again:

"It shouldn’t exceed six and a half hours at least, right?"

After saying this, Daven looked eagerly at Wyatt.

Whew!

As Daven looked over, Wyatt raised his hand and directly took out his top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, beginning to concoct pills on the spot.

And the pill he was preparing to concoct was the ’Rowan Heaven Pill’.

Seeing Wyatt’s actions, Daven naturally understood that Wyatt was going to demonstrate his actual heating cauldron speed through alchemy...

Instantly, he said no more and watched intently.

"He’s starting the heating cauldron..."

A moment later, he saw Wyatt summon a wisp of gray top-grade Immortal Fire and begin the heating cauldron process.

Half an hour later.

"Hmm?"

While intensely watching Wyatt’s heating process, Daven suddenly noticed that Wyatt stopped heating at this time and even took out the medicinal materials needed for pill concoction, leaving him momentarily bewildered.

"What’s happening?"

"Half an hour? That’s impossible, right?"

"Even if Alchemist Barnes wanted to deceive me, stopping the heating process deliberately after half an hour isn’t necessary. By doing this, he can’t possibly concoct the pill!"

...

At this moment, Daven kept shaking his head, thinking Wyatt had already abandoned this batch of pills.

Until later, when Wyatt successfully concocted the top-grade Immortal Pill ’Rowan Heaven Pill’, Daven, who had no hope for Wyatt, found his expression completely frozen, with shock and incredulity alone remaining on his face and in his eyes.

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

"Heating cauldron for half an hour and successfully concocting a pill... and it’s the top-grade Immortal Pill ’Rowan Heaven Pill’!"

"My God! Am I dreaming?"

At this time, even though Daven, as the Sect Leader of Taiyi Immortal Sect, had seen much of the world, he couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming shock, even questioning if he was dreaming.

A moment later, after confirming he wasn’t dreaming, Daven’s face showed waves of ecstatic joy:

"Alchemist Barnes!"

Daven’s gaze was fixed on Wyatt, as if he were looking at some ’peerless treasure’, "If you participate in the ’Pill Tao Conference’ two years from now, you can choose any Monarch Level Immortal Method or Divine Ability from our Taiyi Immortal Sect..."

"Thank you, Sect Leader."

Wyatt’s face displayed a smile.

Two years from now, he would have a wager he could proudly present at the Pill Tao Conference.

Although the ’King Grade Immortal Artifact’ he acquired from Princess Consort Rivera’s small world could also serve as a wager, those King Grade Immortal Artifacts couldn’t be revealed, at least not before the eyes of the three great immortal sects in the Desolate Territory.

Otherwise, the ’lie’ of him obtaining nothing in that small world would be exposed!

Hunter Swayer, Russel Yorke, and Joshua Davies saw Daven agree straightforwardly. Although they weren’t surprised, they still showed smiles.

"Alchemist Barnes, I’ll go see the Elder Ancestor right now... I believe the Elder Ancestor will definitely be willing to offer our Taiyi Immortal Sect’s ’King Grade Immortal Artifact’ for you as a wager, cheering for you!"

A moment later, Daven spoke again, in a manic state, like a ’gambler’ who had lost his mind!
