Legend of Wyatt

Now, not only does Russel Yorke think Wyatt Barnes’ method of adding ingredients is clumsy, but even Hunter Swayer and Joshua Davies also feel Wyatt’s method is awkward.

Watching Wyatt Barnes add ingredients with such a clumsy technique, they all feel a bit taken aback.

"So far, in the first four steps of his alchemy, except for the third step ’Gathering Ingredients’ which doesn’t have much skill involved, and the second step ’Heating the Cauldron’ which relies on immortal fire, the first step ’Balancing the Cauldron’ and the fourth step ’Adding Ingredients’ are quite unsightly..."

Hunter Swayer shook his head and said: "Next, let’s see how he handles the following steps in alchemy..."

"Let’s keep watching."

Joshua Davies nodded, and as Wyatt Barnes threw all the materials into the pill furnace, he extended his Divine Sense in a timely manner, approaching the pill furnace to try and peek inside.

"What’s going on?!"

"His immortal fire... how terrifying is it? Even my Divine Sense can’t get closer?"

Joshua Davies was shocked to discover that when his Divine Sense was still some distance from Wyatt Barnes’ pill furnace, it was blocked by an aura emanating from within the furnace.

He could only use his Divine Sense to barely see some of the conditions inside the pill furnace through a few openings.

Even so, he could still observe Wyatt Barnes’ next step, ’Refining the Drugs’.

But now, his attention was completely on Wyatt’s immortal fire.

"What kind of top-grade immortal fire does he have? It can block my Divine Sense from such a distance!"

"Your Divine Sense was blocked too?"

At the same time, Hunter Swayer and Russel Yorke exchanged glances, seeing the shock and incredulity in each other’s eyes.

"Your Divine Sense also..."

Upon hearing their words, Joshua Davies realized:

So it wasn’t just his own Divine Sense being blocked, but Swayer and Yorke’s Divine Sense was also kept out.

He was surprised, barely finishing his sentence, when his Divine Sense received new feedback, cutting off his words.

"He has started refining the drugs!"

Realizing this, Joshua Davies reminded Swayer and Yorke, prompting them to immediately focus back on their Divine Sense:

"Refining the drugs?"

"Let’s see how he refines the drugs..."

Now, both Hunter Swayer and Russel Yorke temporarily put aside their thoughts about Wyatt’s immortal fire blocking their Divine Sense from a distance, and completely turned their attention to observing Wyatt Barnes performing the fifth step in alchemy through their Divine Sense:

Refining the Drugs!

Initially, they observed with deep intent, their expressions extremely serious.

But soon, when they saw Wyatt Barnes start refining the drugs, their expressions turned peculiar...

Although Wyatt Barnes’ refining efficiency was high,

They could all see:

The reason for Wyatt’s high efficiency in refining drugs was solely due to the top-grade immortal fire he controlled, his refining technique was poor, far inferior to any of the three, and not by a small margin.

"However, although his refining technique is poor, by relying on his top-grade immortal fire, his refining efficiency is beyond what I can compare."

Russel Yorke silently thought to himself.

"Comparing oneself with others only leads to frustration... how did he come to possess such a strong top-grade immortal fire? Is this really top-grade? Even a supreme alchemist with supreme fire might not match his efficiency with these materials!"

Hunter Swayer silently screamed in his heart.

As for Joshua Davies, his feelings were much the same.

After just three hours, Swayer and his companions discovered that Wyatt Barnes had completed refining the drugs, the speed making them click their tongues in amazement, "This top-grade immortal fire is truly amazing!"

"If this top-grade immortal fire were in my hands, with my refining technique, I could complete this step in at most two hours."

"It’d be about the same for me."

...

In their words, Hunter Swayer, Russel Yorke, and Joshua Davies, while lamenting the short time Wyatt Barnes spent on the refining step, not one of them praised Wyatt’s alchemy technique, instead marveling at the strength of Wyatt’s top-grade immortal fire.

Wyatt’s top-grade immortal fire made them envious, jealous.

If immortal fire could be seized, they might have long since made a sinister move against Wyatt Barnes to take it.

"He’s starting to transform the drugs!"

Soon, after completing the fifth step ’Refining the Drugs’, Wyatt Barnes began the sixth step ’Transforming the Drugs’.

Refining the Drugs refers to refining the materials into residue, while Transforming the Drugs is turning those residues into liquid, making them completely liquefy...

This process also relies on immortal fire.

So, Wyatt Barnes didn’t spend much time on this either.

"Not only is his refining technique unable to be watched, his transforming technique is also lousy!"

"Looking at him, he might actually refine a top-grade Immortal Pill, the Rowan Heaven Pill... however, his alchemy skills are too poor, not deserving of his top-grade immortal fire."

"I really don’t understand how someone with such poor alchemy skills could encounter such a top-grade immortal fire."

...

The eyes of Hunter Swayer and the other two remained tinged with red, unable to fade for a long time.

This shows how envious they were of Wyatt Barnes for mastering the top-grade Immortal Flame.

Wyatt Barnes, after spending some time on medication, began the seventh step ’Gather Spirit’.

Gather Spirit also relies on the Immortal Flame, but compared to earlier medicine refining, the reliance isn’t as significant...

Because of this, Wyatt Barnes spent much longer on Gathering Spirit.

"The method of gathering spirit is decent, not so rough... But compared to ours, it’s still lacking."

"If not for having such a level of top-grade Immortal Flame assisting in Gathering Spirit, his Gather Spirit would’ve been unsuccessful... The success is primarily due to his top-grade Immortal Flame!"

"As of now, I can almost predict that his subsequent ’Coagulate Pill’ technique will also be average."

"I think so, too."

...

Time quietly passed, and soon Wyatt Barnes began the eighth step of alchemy ’Coagulate Pill’.

And just as Hunter Swayer and the others predicted, Wyatt Barnes’ method of Coagulating Pill seemed very crude in their eyes, without the significant top-grade Immortal Flame assisting, the coagulation would have certainly failed!

After completing Coagulate Pill, the ninth step ’Harvest Pill’ was simple.

"Not bad... This time five pills formed!"

Throughout the entire alchemy process, Wyatt Barnes was so focused that he was unaware of external matters, and even more oblivious to the fact that his alchemy process had been observed by all three top-grade alchemist masters of the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

"Five?"

"He could form five pills?"

"This is too exaggerated... With his level of alchemy, it’s merely the entry level of a top-grade alchemist, not only successfully refining top-grade Immortal Pill Rowan Heaven Pill, but also forming five pills?"

...

Hunter Swayer, Russel Yorke, and Joshua Davies exchanged glances, feeling a bit speechless during their private transmission.

"Though hard to accept... His recent alchemy indeed indicates that he is a promising talent! Bear in mind, he is yet to be a hundred years old!"

Russel Yorke transmitted to Hunter Swayer and Joshua Davies.

Not yet a hundred years!

Once Russel Yorke’s words reached Hunter Swayer and Joshua Davies, it caused their hearts to tremble simultaneously.

Indeed.

This purple-clad youth, at present, is not even a hundred years old.

Not even a hundred years old, able to master such alchemy techniques, is truly commendable.

At least, before they reached the age of a hundred, they were far inferior to him.

"Five Rowan Heaven Pills?"

On the other side, Daven Buckingham, the Sect Leader of Taiyi Immortal Sect, though confident in Wyatt Barnes due to his trust in Protector Iron, still felt anxious before Wyatt Barnes successfully refined Rowan Heaven Pills.

Now, witnessing Wyatt Barnes successfully refining Rowan Heaven Pills, his anxious heart finally settled down.

Furthermore, he felt joyous over Wyatt Barnes’ successful refinement of five Rowan Heaven Pills:

"Five Rowan Heaven Pills... Alchemist Barnes, your alchemy skills are truly admirable! Admirable! Admirable!"

Now, Daven Buckingham felt Wyatt Barnes’ alchemy skills surpassed all three men, Hunter Swayer, Russel Yorke, and Joshua Davies.

Upon hearing Daven Buckingham’s words, Hunter Swayer and the other two naturally felt uncomfortable, yet none refuted...

After all, within the circle of alchemist masters, a top-grade Immortal Flame also counts as part of the alchemy skill.

Even if Wyatt Barnes’ alchemy level was average, they couldn’t claim his alchemy skills were poor.

"Gentlemen, I refined this top-grade Immortal Pill ’Rowan Heaven Pill’ merely to handle Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect and Thousand Spider Immortal Sect..."

Wyatt Barnes, after refining Rowan Heaven Pill, didn’t boast but immediately looked to Hunter Swayer and the others and said:

"Because Protector Iron killed people from two Immortal Sects that day, justifying it by saying they had offended me, the chief alchemist of Taiyi Immortal Sect, hence he took action to kill them."

"If Dragon Warrior Immortal Sect and Thousand Spider Immortal Sect learn I’m not the chief alchemist of Taiyi Immortal Sect, they can use this as a reason to trouble Protector Iron and the Taiyi Immortal Sect."

"I recognize my alchemy skill is ordinary, and the reason I successfully refined Rowan Heaven Pill relied more on my ’Top-grade Immortal Flame’... With my level, indeed unfit to be Taiyi Immortal Sect’s chief alchemist."

"However, I still hope you will cooperate and publicly declare me as Taiyi Immortal Sect’s chief alchemist... Internally, Taiyi Immortal Sect remains as before, without a chief alchemist!"

Wyatt Barnes said to Hunter Swayer and the others.

Wyatt Barnes knew his alchemy level and faintly guessed:

Most likely, these three top-grade alchemist masters of Taiyi Immortal Sect, through his recent alchemy process, understood his alchemy level.

"Hmm?"

When Daven Buckingham heard Wyatt Barnes’ words, he was stunned, while Hunter Swayer and the other top-grade alchemist masters were shocked.

They didn’t expect Wyatt Barnes would be so humble...
