Chapter 2800: My Mind Is Made Up!
"It’s not an urgent matter."
Wyatt Barnes shook his head and said, "I’ve come to see the Sect Leader to ask about something."
"What is it?"
Daven Buckingham asked.
Daven Buckingham looked at Wyatt Barnes, with an expression of ’ask me anything, and I’ll tell you everything’.
"Back when our Taiyi Immortal Sect, Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect, and Taiyi Immortal Sect sent people into that small world... The ones under a hundred years old who successfully entered, how long did those stronger Blue Sun Golden Immortals manage to survive inside before perishing?"
Wyatt Barnes asked straightforwardly.
Now, he wanted to confirm one thing.
The danger within the ’small world’ left by that Immortal King, would it be encountered after a long time or immediately upon entering?
If it’s the former, the ’method’ he had in mind would be useless.
"The one who stayed the longest inside managed ten days... From the day he entered, ten days later, his Soul Bead shattered. He was also the strongest among all the Blue Sun Golden Immortals under a hundred years who entered that small world."
Although he didn’t know why Wyatt Barnes suddenly asked this, Daven Buckingham still responded immediately, "And among the Blue Sun Golden Immortals under a hundred years of age, the shortest time anyone stayed inside was a full eight days."
"As for those weaker... not a single one survived more than eight days inside."
Daven Buckingham said.
"So, from what we can see... The stronger the individual, the longer they can stay inside."
Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrows.
"Theoretically, yes."
Daven Buckingham nodded.
"Since that’s the case... After this Desolate Territory grand competition concludes, should one or two of the talented young individuals under a hundred years that we’ve gathered from Taiyi Immortal Sect, Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect, and Qianzhu Immortal Sect first go in to scout?"
Wyatt Barnes asked, "If they all perish, then there should be no need for others with similar strength to enter, right?"
"Those individuals, with such talent, if they all go to their deaths, it will be a huge loss, not only for our Taiyi Immortal Sect, but also for Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect and Qianzhu Immortal Sect."
Wyatt Barnes continued.
"Hmm."
Daven Buckingham nodded again, "We, the three great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory, had already considered this even before the grand competition began... At that time, we will first send in a pair of reasonably strong Purple Sun Golden Immortals to explore. If they also perish quickly, then there will be no need for the other Purple Sun Golden Immortals to enter."
"This way, we can preserve some of our talented fresh blood in the three great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory."
"If the Purple Sun Golden Immortals go in and perish, then we can only send in those under a hundred years ’Daai Law Golden Immortals’... However, there are only a few Daai Law Golden Immortals, it’s difficult to let any one of them go in first, so they all have to go in together."
Daven Buckingham, as he spoke, couldn’t help but shake his head, "If it really comes to that point, we can only hope that the small world left by that Immortal King allows the young strong individuals at the level of Daai Law Golden Immortals to traverse it without hindrance..."
"Otherwise, not only will we lose a batch of talented individuals of the Immortal Dao, but we, the three great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory, will also lose the chance to touch the small world left by the Immortal King."
The small world left by the Immortal King cannot be entered by anyone over a hundred years old.
This ’threshold’ limits a substantial number of strong individuals from the three great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory.
If even the Daai Law Golden Immortals under a hundred years perish in that small world.
Then, the three great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory will completely lose access to the small world left by the Immortal King...
To be precise, they will miss out on all the precious treasures within that small world.
The small world left by the Immortal King is likely to contain ’King Grade Immortal Artifacts’, and possibly many other valuable treasures.
"How many ’Daai Law Golden Immortals’ under a hundred years appeared in this Desolate Territory grand competition?"
Today, the Desolate Territory grand competition had just ended, and Wyatt Barnes hadn’t had time to inquire about its process when he went to see the Sect Leader of Taiyi Immortal Sect, Daven Buckingham.
Now, hearing Daven Buckingham mention the Daai Law Golden Immortals under a hundred years old, he couldn’t help but ask curiously.
"There are six in total... We, the three great Immortal Sects of the Desolate Territory, divided them equally. Our Taiyi Immortal Sect took two of them."
Daven Buckingham said.
"Six..."
Now, Wyatt Barnes finally understood:
Earlier, why Daven Buckingham said it was difficult to let any of the Daai Law Golden Immortals under a hundred years in first to explore because there are only six of them; it’s unsuitable for anyone to be the ’lead bird’, and no one would want to be.
They can only go in together.
After all, no one is foolish.
"Sect Leader, when will the outstanding individuals from the Desolate Territory grand competition, gathered by our Taiyi Immortal Sect, Qianzhu Immortal Sect, and Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect, enter the ’small world’ left by the Immortal King? Has the date been set?"
Wyatt Barnes asked.
"The date was set before the Desolate Territory grand competition began."
Daven Buckingham nodded, "Just one month after the end of the Desolate Territory’s grand competition... At that time, sect leaders from each sect will personally lead a team to the small world left behind by the Immortal King, sending in a group of young powerhouses under the age of 100."
"Alchemist Barnes, your sudden interest in this... could it be that you also plan to enter?"
Daven Buckingham mentioned this as if recalling something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and asked.
Although he really hoped that Wyatt Barnes would also enter that small world left by the Immortal King, because Wyatt himself was a Daai Law Golden Immortal under the age of 100. If Wyatt entered as well, their Taiyi Immortal Sect would have three Daai Law Golden Immortals entering.
This way, their Taiyi Immortal Sect would have a better chance of gaining benefits in that small world.
However, if Wyatt Barnes was unwilling to enter, he couldn’t force him either.
"Hmm."
Wyatt Barnes nodded, "Over the past period of time, I’ve pondered... and finally decided to join the excitement in that small world left by the Immortal King."
"With your strength, Alchemist Barnes, you are bound to gain something in that small world."
Daven Buckingham smiled.
Until now, Daven Buckingham still believed that entering that small world should not pose any danger to someone at the level of Daai Law Golden Immortal.
In his view:
Since that small world has the ’rule’ that prevents anyone under 100 years old from entering, then a Daai Law Golden Immortal entering should not face life-threatening danger.
In the Desolate Territory, a Daai Law Golden Immortal under the age of 100 is already a very rare existence.
If entering that small world meant death for a Daai Law Golden Immortal, across the entire Desolate Territory, there would not be a single person who could safely exit that small world.
In that case, that small world would simply be a trap left by the Immortal King.
However, constructing a small world, even for an Immortal King, is a very laborious task...
Typically, an Immortal King would not intentionally create a small world just to trap people; that would be too tedious.
Therefore, Daven Buckingham believed:
That small world should not pose any danger to a ’Daai Law Golden Immortal’, at most it might be somewhat dangerous for those ’Purple Sun Golden Immortals’ who haven’t achieved the Daai Law Golden Immortal level.
The news that Wyatt Barnes intended to enter the small world left by the Immortal King quickly reached the ears of the three top-grade alchemy immortal masters of the Taiyi Immortal Sect.
Immediately, the three could not sit still and took turns advising Wyatt Barnes:
"Alchemist Barnes, I told you before, there’s really no need for you to risk entering that small world..."
Hunter Swayer advised earnestly.
He did not expect that Wyatt Barnes did not take his previous words to heart and still wanted to risk entering that small world.
"Alchemist Barnes!"
Russel Yorke also looked at Wyatt Barnes gravely and advised, "Alchemist Swayer is right, there’s truly no need for you to risk entering that small world... With your talent in Pill Tao, not to mention a thousand years later, even in ten thousand years, as long as you can encounter the ’Supreme Immortal Flame’ and subdue it, you can become a supreme alchemist!"
"By that time, not to mention ’King Grade Immortal Artifacts’... even if you wanted ’Emperor Grade Immortal Artifacts’, you wouldn’t have to worry about them coming to you."
As he advised, Russel Yorke glanced at Joshua Davies from the side.
In his view, the things within the small world left by the Immortal King, the most enticing must be the ’King Grade Immortal Artifact’.
"Alchemist Barnes, Alchemist Swayer and Alchemist Yorke’s words are also my sentiments... There’s no need for you to take the risk!"
When Russel Yorke’s gaze swept over, Joshua Davies timely advised Wyatt Barnes as well.
"Three alchemists, I know you mean well... but my decision is made!"
Wyatt Barnes stated.
Seeing Wyatt Barnes so stubborn, Hunter Swayer and Russel Yorke exchanged glances, communicated through voice transmission for a moment, and then called on Joshua Davies to go with them to find the Sect Leader of Taiyi Immortal Sect, ’Daven Buckingham’.
They wanted Daven Buckingham to persuade Wyatt Barnes not to risk entering that small world.
Under the combined pressure of the three, even though Daven Buckingham believed a Daai Law Golden Immortal should not face danger in that small world, he was compelled to advise against it:
"Alchemist Barnes, I feel... the three alchemists have a point; you have such high talent in alchemy that even if you don’t join the excitement in that small world, it wouldn’t impact your life."
Forced by Hunter Swayer and the others to stand in front of Wyatt Barnes, Daven Buckingham offered this advice with a bitter smile.
However, Wyatt Barnes remained unmoved.
Seeing this, Hunter Swayer, Russel Yorke, and Joshua Davies, feeling helpless, brought out some of their attack-type Monarch Grade Immortal Artifacts and defense-type Monarch Grade Immortal Artifacts, allowing Wyatt Barnes to choose.
They only hoped that Wyatt Barnes would have a bit more self-defense capability in that small world.
"Three alchemists, I appreciate your kindness... The Sect Leader told me, for this entry into the small world, both I and the other two Daai Law Golden Immortals will each receive two Monarch Grade Immortal Artifacts from the sect."
"So, I’m not lacking Monarch Grade Immortal Artifacts."
Touched by their consideration, Wyatt Barnes declined the goodwill of Hunter Swayer and the others.
As one of the three great immortal sects in the Desolate Territory, although Taiyi Immortal Sect currently had only one ’King Grade Immortal Artifact’ unique to the Desolate Territory, it did have a good number of Monarch Grade Immortal Artifacts.
