Chapter 2627: Leaving Bloodshade City
Chapter 2627: Leaving Bloodshade City
"Perhaps... not?"
Hearing Wyatt Barnes’ words, Manuel Willow was taken aback.
Although, with his past strength, he couldn’t even get close to that strand of ’Immortal Fire’ hidden in that place, let alone take it and make it his own.
But he had never thought:
That Immortal Fire might be ’Top-grade Immortal Fire’, or even ’Supreme-grade Immortal Fire’.
As far as he knew, even some relatively rare ’Low-grade Immortal Fires’ could only be approached by Great Luo Golden Immortals or higher, and taken as their own.
Of course, such ’Low-grade Immortal Fires’ are very scarce.
Generally, once an ordinary Golden Immortal discovers a ’Low-grade Immortal Fire’, they can take it with their bare hands, making it their own with the process being quite simple.
In contrast, he didn’t know much about ’Mid-grade Immortal Fires’.
However, in his view, since it was ’Mid-grade Immortal Fire’, it must be harder to obtain than ’Low-grade Immortal Fire’, and it was very normal for only those beyond Great Luo Golden Immortals to have the ability to acquire it.
Because of this, he told Wyatt Barnes:
The strand of Immortal Fire he discovered might very well be ’Mid-grade Immortal Fire’.
Of course, it was only a possibility, and he didn’t dare to be a hundred percent sure.
After all, some ’Low-grade Immortal Fires’ also require a Great Luo Golden Immortal or higher to be taken.
"City Lord... After hearing what I said, do you regret telling me about the ’Immortal Fire’?"
Wyatt Barnes asked with a smile.
"There’s nothing to regret."
Manuel Willow shook his head. "Besides, that Immortal Fire is unlikely to be ’Top-grade Immortal Fire’, or even ’Supreme-grade Immortal Fire’... even if it were, it’s not something I could handle."
"After all, whether I can become a Great Luo Golden Immortal in the future is uncertain. I am realistic about this."
"And if it truly is ’Top-grade Immortal Fire’ or ’Supreme-grade Immortal Fire’... even a Great Luo Golden Immortal might not be able to take it, let alone me."
Manuel Willow couldn’t help but laugh at himself towards the end.
"Regardless of whether the ’Immortal Fire’ is Low-grade, Mid-grade, Top-grade, or Supreme-grade... I’m very interested in it right now..."
Wyatt Barnes’ eyes suddenly narrowed, a gleam of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
Not concealing his desire to acquire that ’Immortal Fire’.
"With your current strength, Elder Brother Ling Tian, even if you went to that place, you wouldn’t be able to take that strand of Immortal Fire... Wait until you can defeat that ’Tony Campbell’, maybe then you’ll be able to acquire that strand of Immortal Fire."
Manuel Willow said with a smile.
"In the end... the City Lord is still eager for revenge."
Wyatt Barnes gave Manuel Willow a deep look, asking, "City Lord, if I were to go to the County Governor’s Mansion and find that Tony Campbell isn’t as you said, someone who deserves to die... and if our ’deal’ is voided, would you then not tell me the location of the Immortal Fire?"
"Don’t worry."
Manuel Willow replied with confidence, "Our ’deal’ can’t be voided."
In his view:
If Tony Campbell isn’t someone who deserves to die, then there might not be many others in the world who do.
After a moment, Manuel Willow bid farewell and left.
Wyatt Barnes returned to his room, continuing to peruse the ’Memory Symbols’ he had bought in Bloodshade City...
"Engraving Immortal Symbols isn’t as troublesome as Alchemy or Artifice and doesn’t require obtaining the scarce Natural Treasures like ’Immortal Fire’... A Golden Immortal or higher, willing to spend some time researching, can engrave Immortal Symbols on their own."
"Like Memory Symbols, and normal Floating Image Symbols... Ordinary Golden Immortal experts just need to know the corresponding Immortal Symbol’s ’talisman patterns’ to engrave them successfully."
"As for the Parent-Child Floating Image Symbols... although ordinary Golden Immortal experts can also engrave them, the materials required for engraving are too rare and scarce, making Parent-Child Floating Image Symbols extremely rare and valuable."
Soon, Wyatt Barnes gained some understanding of the Immortal Symbols in the Great Heavens Plane.
"Whether Memory Symbols or Floating Image Symbols, they are just auxiliary types of Immortal Symbols... whereas Attack-type Immortal Symbols, Defense-type Immortal Symbols, and Mobility-type Immortal Symbols require a Great Luo Golden Immortal or higher to engrave, and they must also know the corresponding ’talisman patterns’."
"These three types of Immortal Symbols, the more advanced they are, the stronger their power! Some high-level Immortal Symbols can even save lives in critical moments! Of course, some powerful Attack Symbols can also be used for killing."
"Like those young immortals with profound backgrounds... many have powerful Immortal Symbols engraved by their elders, ready to use in critical moments to save their lives."
After understanding Immortal Symbols to a certain extent, Wyatt Barnes shifted his attention to the information recorded in other Memory Symbols.
"In the Great Heavens Plane, there’s no distinction between Martial Artists and Taoist Cultivators... because, in the Great Heavens Plane, some powerful Immortal Methods and Divine Abilities can evoke the power of heaven and earth against enemies, unlike in the mundane plane where only Taoist Cultivators can do that."
"And the Heavenly Veins... those with more than eighty-one Heavenly Veins are naturally gifted, with a cultivation speed far beyond that of ordinary immortals!"
"In the mundane planes, individuals with over eighty-one heavenly veins are as rare as phoenix feathers... But in the celestial planes, it is not so. Some indigenous people, due to good genetics, possess more than eighty-one Saint Veins."
Wyatt Barnes was shocked.
"No wonder it’s the celestial planes... In the celestial planes, having eighty-one heavenly veins seems so ordinary."
Wyatt couldn’t help but sigh.
"The number of heavenly veins directly affects one’s cultivation speed, as well as their ability to mobilize Immortal Origin Force... Those with more heavenly veins have a significant advantage in these two aspects."
"However... In the celestial planes, having more heavenly veins does not guarantee that one will achieve greater accomplishments than those with fewer veins."
"In the celestial planes, various opportunities exist, and anything can happen... There are even some Heavenly Emperors, who although they rule a section of the celestial planes, have less than eighty-one heavenly veins!"
"Having more heavenly veins only means a higher starting point... Ultimately, it depends on oneself and the opportunities that lie ahead."
Upon reading this part of the information, Wyatt also put away the sense of superiority he had since ascending to Spiritual Heaven, attributed to being a possessor of ninety-nine heavenly veins.
"No wonder Breezy Wind had only eighty-one heavenly veins, yet was able to make a name for himself in the celestial planes in just a hundred thousand years, even becoming a Heavenly Emperor, governing one of the eighty-one segments of the celestial planes, ’Vanished Heaven’!"
Back in the mundane planes, he had already heard about the Sword Saint Breezy Wind having eighty-one saint veins.
What in the mundane planes was referred to as saint veins is known in the celestial planes as ’heavenly veins.’
"If it weren’t for me... Senior Breezy Wind would surely still be comfortably serving as the ’Heavenly Emperor’ of Vanished Heaven."
"But now... He is trapped in the Asura Hell, one of the seven deadly grounds of the celestial planes, his fate unknown. And in that place, even a Heavenly Emperor entering is nearly a death sentence!"
Thinking of this, Wyatt tightly closed his eyes, his fists unknowingly clenching, and his body began to tremble violently.
"If anything happens to Senior Breezy Wind... Rocky Cloud, I will tear you to pieces and grind your bones to ashes!"
Wyatt’s eyes suddenly snapped open, emitting extreme hatred, and as he spoke slowly, it was almost through gritted teeth that he let out a low, hysterical roar!
...
A month later.
Three figures, like three bolts of lightning, shot out from above Bloodshade City, leaving it far behind.
Leading the group was an elderly man in a gray robe.
The elderly man had a medium build and an ordinary appearance, but every movement exuded an ethereal, graceful aura.
The old man led the way.
Behind him, two young men closely followed.
The two young men, one dressed in purple and the other in black, were both tall with distinct facial features, handsome, and their expressions held a touch of sternness, as if keeping others at a distance of a thousand miles.
These three were none other than Wyatt Barnes, Ares Cooper, and the ’special envoy’ from the County Governor’s Mansion of Nine Nether County.
The special envoy was the gray-robed elder leading the way in front.
He had arrived early that morning and, after declining City Lord Manuel Willow’s invitation to stay a night in Bloodshade City, he hurriedly left with Wyatt and Ares Cooper, heading towards the County City of Nine Nether County.
"Ares Cooper, I just reviewed a memory immortal talisman introduction about you given to me by City Lord Willow... A little more than half a year ago, you were only a Centurion under the Black Dragon Army of Bloodshade City?"
Suddenly, the elder leading the way turned back while on the move, looking at Ares at Wyatt’s side.
"Yes."
Ares nodded.
"I had heard there were nearly ten ’Golden Immortals’ under a hundred years old in Bloodshade City... But I didn’t expect that one of the two spots being sent to the County Governor’s Mansion would be occupied by someone who was just a Centurion with the Black Dragon Army half a year ago."
"Most impressive... very impressive."
The elder praised Ares twice as he spoke.
"Thank you for the compliment, special envoy."
A slight smile appeared on the otherwise calm face of Ares.
The elder nodded at Ares, then turned his gaze to Wyatt.
This caused Wyatt to raise an eyebrow slightly, while he thought to himself: "Since the City Lord gave the special envoy a memory immortal talisman introducing Ares... he must have also given him one introducing me."
"I wonder... How did the City Lord introduce me in that memory immortal talisman?"
Although he didn’t know how City Lord Willow had introduced him in the memory immortal talisman, he knew that Manuel Willow would never harm him.
Not to mention that, through his interactions with Manuel Willow, he could tell that Willow was not a despicable person.
And the matter of Manuel Willow wanting him to help with vengeance also ensured that Willow would not harm him.
