Legend of Wyatt

Wyatt Barnes was also familiar with the ’Origin Gold Pill’.

The Origin Gold Pill is a mid-grade Immortal Pill exclusively for Daai Law Golden Immortals. Those at the level of Daai Law Golden Immortal, regardless of which tier, can directly advance one tier by consuming it.

Of course, except for peak Daai Law Golden Immortals.

Once beyond peak Daai Law Golden Immortal, the next step is ’Upper Immortal’. Consuming an Origin Gold Pill at this level will be useless.

Therefore, a general Daai Law Golden Immortal would choose to consume the Origin Gold Pill at the ’Heavenly Realm Daai Law Golden Immortal’ tier to directly advance to become a ’Peak Daai Law Golden Immortal’.

To progress further from peak Daai Law Golden Immortal, one usually requires reliance on the top-grade Immortal Pill ’Rowan Heaven Pill’.

"Raising non-sentient Immortal Beasts at the Daai Law Golden Immortal level... Indeed, the Daai Law Pill can only cultivate them to the ’Heavenly Realm Daai Law Golden Immortal’ tier. To go further, only the ’Origin Gold Pill’ will suffice."

"However, even for human Daai Law Golden Immortals, not everyone can obtain the Origin Gold Pill... The Origin Gold Pill is extremely rare even among mid-grade Immortal Pills, with a value surpassing many top-grade Immortal Pills."

"Using an Origin Gold Pill to raise non-sentient Immortal Beasts, not even the Imperial Family of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation would dare... Even within the three celestial sects in the Desolate Territory, few would have such audacity."

Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.

"Cultivating non-sentient Immortal Beasts to the ’Upper Immortal’ tier is even more challenging... It requires a large quantity of top-grade Immortal Pills, ’Rowan Heaven Pill’! And Rowan Heaven Pill, even within the three celestial sects in the Desolate Territory, is extremely rare."

Because of this, Wyatt Barnes was certain:

Even within the three celestial sects in the Desolate Territory, there might not be non-sentient Immortal Beasts at the Upper Immortal tier, and even if there were, they would not be many.

This time, among the group heading to ’City of Grand Unity’, one of the three major cities in the center region of the Desolate Territory, besides the emperor of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, his several powerful subordinates, and fifty young strong individuals, there were many accompanying individuals.

These accompanying individuals were either princes and their men or the lords of various royal houses and their men.

Among them were the Fourth Prince Judson Dragonsmith and the Seventh Prince Kye Dragonsmith.

However, Wyatt Barnes, Leilany, and the Thirteenth Prince Crue Dragonsmith were at a distance from the others, with their group being led by Francis Bushell, who walked behind Crue Dragonsmith.

Francis Bushell was a ’Heavenly Realm Upper Immortal’, so leading Wyatt Barnes and the three others to keep pace with the nine-headed lion-tiger beast was effortless, and his expression remained unchanged throughout.

"This ol’ Thirteen... sure is lucky!"

The Fourth Prince Judson Dragonsmith occasionally glanced at Crue Dragonsmith, his expression as difficult as can be.

Although among the fifty young strong individuals of Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation participating in the Desolate Territory competition, there were his people too, their strength was average, particularly compared to Wyatt Barnes and Pole Wind.

Thus, having a youthful powerhouse like Wyatt Barnes participate in the Desolate Territory competition around the Thirteenth Prince Crue Dragonsmith, his heart couldn’t help but harbor envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"Luckily, Father does not favor ol’ Thirteen... otherwise, my path to seizing the throne would have another stumbling block."

The Seventh Prince Kye Dragonsmith looked at Ernesto Dragonsmith, thinking to himself.

Still, even with such thoughts, his face was filled with solemnity because nobody knew if Wyatt Barnes would help his Thirteenth Brother ascend to the throne of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation after joining the ’Dragon Warrior Celestial Sect’.

Currently, Wyatt Barnes may not possess such power.

But in the future, it was uncertain.

The procession of Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation traveled mightily toward ’City of Grand Unity’, one of the three major cities in the central region of the Desolate Territory, without any trouble, with no one reckless enough to intercept or plunder.

But this was expected.

With such a presence from the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, few dared to rashly collect taxes in the Desolate Territory.

Of course, if an Immortal Lord acted, the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation group would have to yield.

But the issue is:

Within the celestial sects of the Desolate Territory, there is no need for an Immortal Lord to engage in the plundering trade. They can flourish in the Desolate Territory with just their cultivation, without the need to road-block and plunder others.

...

"Brother Barnes, in three days, we’ll arrive at ’City of Grand Unity’."

After half a month of traveling, the Thirteenth Prince Crue Dragonsmith spoke to Wyatt Barnes.

Wyatt Barnes nodded, his face calm, without joy or sadness.

He didn’t care at all about the forthcoming ’Desolate Territory competition’ because he knew that participating in it was just to go through the motions, and that he could join the Dragon Warrior Celestial Sect even without participating.

Still, he planned to go through the formalities.

Three days passed quickly.

The procession from Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation reached outside ’City of Grand Unity’ mightily, led by the emperor of Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, Leif Dragonsmith, and descended outside the city gates.

Standing outside City of Grand Unity, no one was seen entering or exiting the city through the air.

Clearly, City of Grand Unity has the rule not to enter or exit freely from the air...

"Is this the ’City of Grand Unity’?"

Even though he was mentally prepared, Wyatt Barnes’ eyes lit up when he first saw the City of Grand Unity.

The City of Grand Unity is definitely the largest city he’s seen so far in both the mundane planes and the celestial planes, even larger than the Capital City of the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, which he noticed before he descended from the sky.

However, he wasn’t surprised by this.

After all, the City of Grand Unity is one of the three largest cities in the central region of the Desolate Territory and is controlled by one of the three great celestial sects of the Desolate Territory, the ’Grand Unity Sect.’

"These people... they must be here to participate in the ’Wilderness Domain Competition’ three months from now, right?"

When the group from the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation grandly entered the City of Grand Unity, the passersby couldn’t help but whisper among themselves, speculating on the identities of the group from the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation.

"Among these people, there are no fewer than fifty young strong individuals... It seems they are from one of the upper-grade celestial nations."

"In our Desolate Territory, there are a total of thirty-nine upper-grade celestial nations... I wonder which upper-grade celestial nation these people are from."

"Their entourage is quite grand... The middle-aged man sitting on the carriage pulled by the nine-headed lion-tiger beast must be an emperor from some upper-grade celestial nation, right? He does look rather imposing..."

"Such an existence, in his upper-grade celestial nation, is of the highest status... but when he arrives at our City of Grand Unity, he amounts to nothing."

"Indeed. Nowadays, in our City of Grand Unity, there are already many people from upper-grade celestial nations, and the emperors of those nations have personally brought them here to participate in the Wilderness Domain Competition."

...

The places where the group from the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation passed became the talk of the town, with many people scrutinizing Wyatt Barnes and the others.

This time, the ’Wilderness Domain Competition’ is set in the City of Grand Unity, and the Grand Unity Immortal Sect, as one of the hosts, has long arranged accommodations in the City of Grand Unity for people from various celestial nations.

Of course, the accommodations are divided into different levels.

Among them, people from upper-grade celestial nations enjoy the best accommodations, those from mid-grade celestial nations have slightly less, and those from lower-grade celestial nations have the worst.

The group from the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, being from an upper-grade celestial nation, was arranged to stay in a spacious residence.

Each person was given an independent courtyard.

Wyatt Barnes was no exception.

However, although Leilany was also given an independent courtyard, she didn’t plan to stay there; she directly followed Wyatt into his courtyard, unwilling to be separated from him.

"Brother Barnes, Miss Leilany... this must be your first time in the City of Grand Unity, right?"

Shortly after entering the courtyard, the Thirteenth Prince, ’Crue Dragonsmith,’ knocked on their door with a smile and asked.

"Yes."

Wyatt Barnes nodded.

"Would you like to go out with me for a stroll and maybe find a restaurant to have a meal?"

Crue Dragonsmith asked.

Hearing this, Wyatt Barnes immediately looked at Leilany beside him. Seeing her also looking at him, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes, he nodded and readily agreed.

He himself didn’t mind, as even if he hadn’t been to the City of Grand Unity before, he wasn’t particularly interested in exploring it.

However, since Leilany liked it, he was happy to accompany her for a walk.

"Wyatt, do you like shopping?"

Leilany once asked Wyatt Barnes this.

"If you like it, I like it."

This was Wyatt Barnes’ original response, spoken in a tone filled with indulgence.

And he wasn’t lying because, when shopping with Leilany, who seemed like a child, he always felt particularly relaxed and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Of course, Wyatt Barnes always kept a certain distance emotionally from Leilany, mostly treating her like a ’sister,’ without entertaining other thoughts.

This wasn’t because Leilany lacked charm, but rather because Wyatt Barnes currently wasn’t in the mindset for romance.

After all, his two wives and a confidante were all in that yet-unknown place known as the ’Divine Ruin Lands.’

"Then let’s go."

Crue Dragonsmith called out to Wyatt Barnes and Leilany, and then, along with Francis Bushell, left the residence that the Grand Unity Immortal Sect had arranged for the group from the Ascendant Dragon Celestial Nation, and began to wander the various places of the City of Grand Unity.

"Hmm?"

While walking down a street, Wyatt Barnes suddenly felt as if someone was watching him, and immediately looked ahead into the distance. There, he saw a young man in brocade clothes staring intently at him.

However, when the brocade-clothed young man saw that Wyatt’s gaze swept over, he promptly retracted his gaze and walked away inconspicuously.

"Does he know me?"

Wyatt Barnes frowned, sure that he had never seen this brocade-clothed young man before.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

After the brocade-clothed youth left, his eyes gleamed brightly, "That young man in purple is the man from the ’floating shadow orb’ in the hands of our Sixth Prince of the Yunyan Immortal Kingdom, isn’t he?"
