Legend of Wyatt

Chapter 2624: The ’Immortal Flame’ That Can Kill Immortal Kings

"The art of alchemy and artifact crafting across the heavens is truly wondrous... Without obtaining ’Immortal Fire,’ no matter how deeply one studies alchemy and crafting, it remains mere theory, making it impossible to become an alchemy or crafting master."

"Furthermore... that ’Immortal Fire’ is indeed a heavenly material treasure like Immortal Grass or Immortal Fruits; it may be born from underground magma, the frigid wind valleys, or the depths of vast oceans... Truly astounding!"

Reading through the information that seemed to have become part of his own memory, Wyatt Barnes couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

"However... this Immortal Fire, being akin to a heavenly material treasure. Could someone else seize it once a person obtains it?"

Curious, Wyatt continued to peruse the newly acquired portion of his memory.

"Once Immortal Fire acknowledges a master, others cannot seize it unless that person willingly gives it up... Otherwise, the Immortal Fire is impossible to take from them."

"Once an alchemy or crafting master perishes, their Immortal Fire dissipates along with them... In situations where they foresee inevitable death, they can even detonate their Immortal Fire, severely injuring their foe or perishing together."

"Of course, the power of detonating Immortal Fire is closely tied to its rank... Like the ’Top-grade Immortal Fire’ of top alchemists and crafters, upon detonation, even a usual Immortal King will surely die if within a kilometer of the explosion!"

At the same time, Wyatt also realized that Immortal Fire is ranked:

Low-grade Immortal Fire, Medium-grade Immortal Fire, High-grade Immortal Fire, Top-grade Immortal Fire.

Indeed, each rank of Immortal Fire encompasses numerous types, and some remain undiscovered and unexplored.

"Top-grade alchemy masters, top-grade crafting masters... even if their cultivation isn’t high, even Immortal Kings treat them with respect and dare not offend them lightly. After all, if they choose mutual destruction by detonating their Immortal Fire, the Immortal King will die too!"

"Even a low-grade alchemy master or crafting master... if they detonate a low-grade Immortal Fire, any Daai Law Golden Immortal within a kilometer radius will either die or become crippled!"

Upon reading this, Wyatt couldn’t help but gasp in awe.

It was at this point he realized:

The low-grade Immortal Pill ’Spirit Essence Pill’ he consumed was crafted by such an existence.

Such an individual, even if not at the level of ’Daai Law Golden Immortal,’ could choose mutual destruction by detonating their low-grade Immortal Fire, ensuring that any Daai Law Golden Immortal within a kilometer distance would be crippled if not killed.

"Immortal Fire... I wonder if I’ll ever be fortunate enough to encounter it in the future."

Understanding the significance and terrifying nature of Immortal Fire, Wyatt’s eyes sparkled with expectation.

"This memory Immortal Talisman seems to record information related to alchemy and crafting..."

Wyatt soon retrieved another memory Immortal Talisman.

This memory Immortal Talisman mentioned various information on how an alchemy and crafting master should practice their arts, along with theories guiding alchemy and crafting...

Yet even these basic theories left Wyatt astonished.

"These theories... I feel they’re no more profound than the alchemy and crafting theories I encountered in the mundane planes, on the mortal continent."

Further reading, Wyatt quickly identified a problem:

In these heavenly planes, even the level of alchemy and crafting wasn’t significantly higher than that of the mundane planes.

In fact, with the alchemy and crafting knowledge left behind by the reincarnated Martial Emperor, Wyatt found himself capable of handling the crafting of low-grade Immortal Pills, low-grade Immortal Artifacts, medium-grade Immortal Pills, medium-grade Immortal Artifacts, and even high-grade Immortal Pills and high-grade Immortal Artifacts.

"Which means... as long as I obtain the right kind of Immortal Fire for crafting, and find suitable materials, I can craft all Immortal Artifacts except for top-grade ones; as long as I procure fitting Immortal Fire for alchemy, and the corresponding recipes and materials, I too can craft all Immortal Pills except top-grade ones!"

"Naturally, with the alchemy and crafting techniques rooted in the memories of the reincarnated Martial Emperor... Even mastering the crafting of top-grade Immortal Artifacts and top-grade Immortal Pills wouldn’t be difficult."

Realizing this, Wyatt couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.

This feeling was akin to taking a ’shortcut.’

"However, even if my alchemy and crafting skills derived from the mundane planes are considered good in these heavenly planes... Without ’Immortal Fire,’ no matter how high my alchemy and crafting levels are, it’s useless."

Thinking of this, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, waking Wyatt up entirely.

"Immortal Fires... more precious than typical heavenly treasures, they are serendipitous encounters, not things one can seek out."

Sighing, Wyatt diverted his attention away from alchemy and crafting, instead taking out an Immortal Talisman that recorded details about Immortal Methods, absorbing the information until it became part of his memory.

Wyatt already knew about the ranking of Immortal Methods.

What he wanted to learn about were the types of Immortal Methods.

"Besides offensive Immortal Methods, defensive Immortal Methods, and movement Immortal Methods, there are also auxiliary Immortal Methods... However, auxiliary Immortal Methods differ from auxiliary Divine Abilities, the latter usually boost the power of Immortal Origin while the former is more about harassing the opponent or confining them."

"Some auxiliary immortality techniques can condense Immortal Origin Force, transform into long ropes to bind people... or transform into a cage to trap people. They can also combine with soul power to create an environment, trapping people invisibly."

After reading through, Wyatt Barnes gained a general understanding of auxiliary immortality techniques.

As for Divine Abilities, he didn’t need to understand them for now.

"There’s also ’Immortal Talisman’..."

Taking out a Memory Celestial Symbol, Wyatt Barnes started to learn about the ’Immortal Talisman,’ similar to the Taoist Talisman in the secular world.

The Immortal Talisman is similar to the Taoist Talisman but typically etched onto a Jade Slip, making its effects better.

"Immortal Talismans are divided into many types... There are attack-type Immortal Talismans, defense-type Immortal Talismans, body technique-type Immortal Talismans, and auxiliary-type Immortal Talismans. Among them, I’ve encountered the auxiliary-type Immortal Talismans like the ’Memory Celestial Symbol’ and the ’Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol’."

The Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol is similar to the ’Mirror Image Symbol’ from the secular world, capable of recording mirror images, much like a technological civilization’s video recording...

Unlike the Mirror Image Symbol, the Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol can not only record and display mirror images but also record and display the sounds from mirror images, a feature not possessed by the Mirror Image Symbol from the secular world.

The Mirror Image Symbol can only record mirror images, not sounds.

"Indeed, there is a ’Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol’ similar to the Child and Mother Mirror Image Symbol of the secular world... However, the value of the Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol far exceeds that of ordinary Floating Shadow Celestial Symbols."

"No wonder when I first met the Centurion of the Army of Silver Sea Dragon, Noel Yorke, he did not recognize me... I initially thought, when I killed his subordinate Centurion in the Ascension Pool, the scenes of his subordinate Centurion’s death should have been transmitted to him through an Immortal Talisman similar to the Child and Mother Mirror Image Symbol."

"Now it seems... A mere Centurion of the Army of Silver Sea Dragon does not possess a Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol."

"Even the Centurions of the Black Dragon Army and Army of Silver Sea Dragon probably don’t have a Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol. After all, after I became a Centurion of the Black Dragon Army, Commander Holland didn’t give me the ’Child Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol’ from the Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol."

"No wonder Commander Holland didn’t know how the former Centurion of the Black Dragon Army, Cairo Yellow, died... It turns out that Cairo Yellow didn’t have a ’Child Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol’."

Just as Wyatt’s thoughts reached this point, a loud and powerful voice echoed beside his ear:

"Elder Brother Wyatt, I heard that you have left seclusion? And even went out for a trip?"

Wyatt could tell that this was the voice of Bloodshade City’s City Lord, Manuel Willow.

Furthermore, Manuel Willow’s manner of addressing him changed from ’Centurion Wyatt Barnes’ to ’Elder Brother Wyatt,’ subtly bringing them closer.

From the sound, Manuel Willow was now in the courtyard of his residence.

"City Lord."

Wyatt stopped reviewing the information extracted from the Memory Celestial Symbol, opened the door, walked out of the room, and came to the courtyard where he sat with Manuel Willow at a stone table.

"Did you gain anything from this seclusion?"

Manuel Willow looked intently at Wyatt Barnes and asked.

Wyatt naturally noticed Manuel Willow’s look of anticipation and smiled faintly as he said, "Thanks to the City Lord’s tranquil cultivation chamber... In a few months’ time, I have successfully broken through to become a ’Purple Moon Celestial’!"

Purple Moon Celestial!

As soon as Wyatt said this, Manuel Willow was startled and stood there like a wooden chicken, not recovering his senses for a while.

Today, upon hearing that Wyatt Barnes had come out of seclusion, he gave up the idea that Wyatt might have broken through to become a ’Purple Moon Celestial’ and only hoped that Wyatt was already very close to it.

After all, he had previously thought that Wyatt might not achieve ’Purple Moon Celestial’ even after half a year of cultivation.

But now, after just five months, Wyatt had come out of seclusion.

He almost believed that Wyatt couldn’t have succeeded in breaking through.

Unexpectedly, when he probed with his question, Wyatt said he had already successfully become a ’Purple Moon Celestial’!

"It seems I really bet on the right ’treasure’ this time."

After a long while, Manuel Willow finally came to his senses, and after a sigh in his heart, a strong expression of excitement emerged in his eyes.

Wyatt Barnes’s talent is higher, his cultivation improving faster, he will be able to avenge sooner!

"City Lord."

Recalling what he had learned about the ’Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol’ earlier, Wyatt looked at Manuel Willow and asked, "Do you have any ’Child and Mother Floating Shadow Celestial Symbol’ connections with those two commanders of the Black Dragon Army and Army of Silver Sea Dragon?"
