Chapter 2880: The Voice of the Chaos Divine Flame Returns

"This..."

"How is this possible?!"

...

The members of the Xuantian Immortal Sect, under the leadership of Sect Leader Infinite Buckingham, all widened their eyes in disbelief and shock as they witnessed the scene before them.

At this moment, they also confirmed:

The chief alchemist of the Taiyi Immortal Sect was not putting on an act; he truly completed the heating cauldron of the Top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace in just half an hour!

If he hadn’t completed the heating cauldron, he couldn’t have produced the Rowan Heaven Pill.

Moreover, this time, he produced thirteen Rowan Heaven Pills, even exceeding the number produced by their own Monarch Grade alchemist, Pem Ho of the Xuantian Immortal Sect!

This indicates:

The opponent’s alchemy skills, to a certain extent, appear to surpass those of their own Alchemist Ho.

"It seems that even when he competed with me before, he was still holding back."

Dylan Sinclair, the chief alchemist of the Joyful Zen Sect, looked at Wyatt Barnes, who was holding thirteen Rowan Heaven Pills not far away, with an incredibly serious expression.

Remembering the scenes from his previous alchemy competition with Wyatt Barnes, he was completely convinced.

Both of them are alchemists, and both are top-grade alchemists.

Wyatt Barnes’ alchemy skills completely won him over.

"How is it possible? How could he complete the heating cauldron of the Top-grade Immortal Artifact in just half an hour and also produce thirteen Rowan Heaven Pills!"

Unlike Dylan Sinclair who was convinced by Wyatt Barnes’ alchemy methods, Killian Diaz, the Buddhist son of the Joyful Zen Sect beside him, looked at Wyatt Barnes again with disbelief:

"He must have cheated! He must have cheated!"

As Killian Diaz continued, he boldly claimed that Wyatt Barnes must have cheated.

Hearing Killian Diaz’s words, Dylan Sinclair immediately cast a disdainful glance at him...

Not to mention that Wyatt Barnes may not have used any other means.

Even if he did use other methods to complete the Top-grade Immortal Artifact’s heating cauldron in half an hour and produce thirteen Rowan Heaven Pills, that would still be his own ability!

After all, from the beginning of this alchemy competition, it was never stated that other means could not be used.

"He... he actually produced the Rowan Heaven Pill!"

Alisson looked at Wyatt Barnes with a face full of shock.

Beside her, Annie Campbell, upon looking at Wyatt Barnes again, was full of shock, her eyes shimmering with admiration.

Although Milana Harrington did not speak, her expression showed a sigh of relief.

Evidently, her heart had been tense just a moment ago.

"Alchemist Ho, this alchemy competition..."

Meanwhile, Shawn Chapman, the Monarch Grade alchemist of the Alliance of Immortal Masters, who was a witness to this alchemy competition wager, looked at Pem Ho of the Xuantian Immortal Sect, seemingly hesitant to speak.

If Pem Ho were merely a top-grade alchemist, he could directly announce the result.

But since the other party was a Monarch Grade alchemist like himself, he felt it necessary to show the appropriate respect.

"I lost."

Hearing Shawn Chapman’s words, Pem Ho snapped out of his shock, and with a bitter face said, "Whether or not he used some other means to win... I indeed lost this alchemy competition wager."

"This Alchemist Ho is indeed a straightforward person."

Wyatt Barnes raised an eyebrow and felt a slight increase in his goodwill towards Pem Ho.

Next, Wyatt Barnes saw:

Pem Ho raised his hand and took out a token wrapped in mysterious light, handing it to Sect Leader Infinite Buckingham of the Xuantian Immortal Sect, "Sect Leader, this is my personal King Grade Immortal Artifact ’Flame Ancient Order’..."

"Alchemist Ho, our Xuantian Immortal Sect does not need your Immortal Artifact... For us, sharing a mere Monarch Level Divine Ability is but a small matter."

However, Infinite Buckingham did not accept the King Grade Immortal Artifact handed over by Pem Ho.

Instead, he raised his hand, and a Memory Immortal Talisman appeared in it, which he then presented to Wyatt Barnes, "Alchemist Barnes, this is the prize our Xuantian Immortal Sect lost to you... Our Xuantian Immortal Sect lost this alchemy competition wager."

Wyatt Barnes, without hesitation, accepted the Memory Immortal Talisman handed over by Infinite Buckingham and extended his Divine Sense into it.

"Indeed, it’s a Monarch Level Divine Ability that is well-balanced in attack, speed, and defense..."

"This Monarch Level Divine Ability, named ’Purple Energy from the East,’ is not the most outstanding among Monarch Level Divine Abilities in terms of attack, speed, or defense, but it is not the worst either; it is quite balanced."

The Memory Immortal Talisman given by Infinite Buckingham recorded a Monarch Level Divine Ability, ’Purple Energy from the East,’ which is balanced in its abilities of attack, speed, and defense.

Unlike the Monarch Level Immortal Method ’Immovable Ming King’ previously won by Wyatt Barnes from the Joyful Zen Sect, which was excellent in defense but quite lacking in attack and speed.

"Alchemist Barnes, congratulations."

Suddenly, in Wyatt Barnes’ ear, came the voice of Shawn Chapman, the Monarch Grade alchemist of the Alliance of Immortal Masters who hosted this alchemy competition wager.

"Alchemist Chapman, without your reminder, there would not have been this alchemy competition... Regardless, I, Wyatt Barnes, will remember this favor."

Wyatt Barnes looked at Shawn Chapman and said earnestly through voice transmission.

Earlier, he didn’t know how long it would take for a Monarch Grade alchemist to heat a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace to completion.

It was after he asked Shawn Chapman that he had a sense of it.

It was only after asking Shawn Chapman and feeling confident in his chances that he proactively initiated a wager for an alchemy competition with the Celestial Sect of the Profound Sky, which allowed him to win that Monarch Level Divine Ability, which combines offense, speed, and defense.

"I merely responded casually to Alchemist Barnes’ question, a trivial matter, hardly worth mentioning... It’s just, when I responded to Alchemist Barnes, I didn’t expect that Alchemist Barnes, your speed in heating a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace would be so swift."

"Alchemist Barnes, your top-grade Immortal Fire is quite remarkable... at least in terms of heating cauldrons, it possesses traits that can be described as ’defying the heavens.’

Shawn Chapman remarked in awe.

"Alchemist Chapman could see that?"

Wyatt Barnes raised an eyebrow.

Just now, many people speculated that he used some other means, which allowed him to complete the heating of the top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace so quickly...

Even Pem Ho, the Monarch Grade alchemist from the Celestial Sect of the Profound Sky, thought so to some extent.

But now, listening to Shawn Chapman’s words, it was clear that he hadn’t used other means and relied entirely on his top-grade Immortal Fire.

"I’ve been a Monarch Grade alchemist for many years; if I couldn’t see even this, I’d be unworthy of the title."

Shawn Chapman smiled slightly as he spoke.

"You can’t say that... Like Alchemist Ho from the Celestial Sect of the Profound Sky, although he is also a Monarch Grade alchemist, he seems not to have noticed that I was relying solely on my top-grade Immortal Fire."

Wyatt Barnes shook his head.

"Alchemist Ho was simply unsettled due to losing the wager, which is why he had such thoughts... as the saying goes, ’bystanders see clearly;’ if he were the bystander today, he too would have seen it as I did."

Shawn Chapman continued.

The wager between Wyatt Barnes and the Celestial Sect of the Profound Sky initially attracted quite a few people, but many still did not take notice.

Now that the result was out, and once it spread, it stirred up a commotion like an earthquake in the Pill Tao Plaza:

"The chief alchemist of the Celestial Sect of the Supreme One, who is less than a hundred years old, actually won against Alchemist Ho from the Celestial Sect of the Profound Sky in an alchemy competition?"

"And they were competing in the speed of heating a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace?"

"Heating a top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace, and Alchemist Ho, being a Monarch Grade alchemist, still lost? Is this a joke!"

"Though I find it hard to believe... I did indeed witness it with my own eyes!"

...

As the entire Pill Tao Plaza was in an uproar due to the wager between Wyatt Barnes and Pem Ho, Wyatt Barnes once again became the focal point of attention.

"My heavens! Who exactly is this Alchemist Barnes from the Celestial Sect of the Supreme One? Less than a hundred years old, yet he has achieved such accomplishments in alchemy... Across the entire South Heaven’s Borderlands, it’s unlikely to find another alchemist of his age with such achievements!"

"It’s conceivable that once this Alchemist Barnes grows, he will undoubtedly become a mighty force in the South Heaven’s Borderlands!"

"Existences like this should be befriended early on... miss the chance now, and there won’t be another one later!"

...

Amidst the exclamations, people from various top sects, as well as many well-known loose cultivators, flocked over to get close to Wyatt Barnes.

And Wyatt Barnes dealt with each of them, one by one, with perfunctory responses.

Fame can be daunting.

At this moment, Wyatt Barnes deeply understood the meaning of this saying.

"Now, whether it’s the Monarch Level Immortal Method that combines offense, speed, and defense, or the Monarch Level Divine Ability that combines offense, speed, and defense, I’ve obtained them... for the upcoming Pill Tao conference, there is no longer a need to continue seeking bets."

After addressing everyone who came forward, Wyatt Barnes, although not planning to leave Pill Tao City or the Desolate Domain for now, also did not intend to seek further alchemy competitions.

Of course, he also knew:

Now, even if he sought others for alchemy competitions, they might not be willing...

"Alchemist Barnes, I truly did not expect that you could heat that top-grade Immortal Artifact pill furnace in just half an hour... henceforth, my title of ’the Southeastern Six Domains’ number one top-grade alchemist’ is yours."

Charles Davidson, who had followed Wyatt Barnes from the beginning, also couldn’t help but express his admiration after Wyatt Barnes had dealt with all those who came up.

Having been there from the start, Charles Davidson witnessed the entire alchemy competition process between Wyatt Barnes and Pem Ho.

During which, he was shocked to the point of being unable to react for quite a long time.

Faced with Charles Davidson’s admiration, Wyatt Barnes naturally responded with humble pleasantries.

The Pill Tao conference continued.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a month had passed.

The Pill Tao conference was also nearing its end at this time.

"Young man, find a secluded spot... Together with the Profound Gold, I will help you open that box!"

While wandering through various parts of the Pill Tao Plaza accompanied by Leilany, Wyatt Barnes suddenly heard an old voice in his ear, causing him to freeze in his tracks, as if struck by lightning!

"It’s the voice of the Chaos Divine Fire!"

Wyatt Barnes could tell; it was indeed the voice of the Chaos Divine Fire.
