Chapter 2963: The Third Form of the Divine Soil?

Upon hearing Emanuel Yellow’s words, the manager of the small shop had a crestfallen look; encountering someone knowledgeable meant there was hardly any profit to be made.

However, although there wasn’t much profit, there was still some to be gained, so business had to be done.

Spending over a thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals, Wyatt Barnes successfully acquired the raw stones but showed no intention of opening them, instead storing them in his Storage Ring.

"Brother Barnes, aren’t you going to open them?"

Emanuel Yellow asked with a smile.

"I’ll open them when I get back... If another Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact is revealed, wouldn’t the whole street know about it?"

Wyatt said with a smile.

"You really think Emperor Grade Immortal Artifacts are as common as cabbages..."

Emanuel Yellow was surprised Wyatt was concerned about this, and he smiled wryly, "The Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact just revealed was probably Singles Kingdom’s first Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact found within a raw stone in tens of thousands of years."

"Emperor Grade Immortal Artifact?!"

The shop manager’s pupils contracted upon hearing the conversation between Wyatt and Emanuel Yellow.

Just now, he heard someone opened an Emperor Grade Immortal Sword from a sword-shaped raw stone, and that Emperor Grade Immortal Sword was about to be taken by the Skybound Tigers clan.

And the raw stone from which the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword was opened belonged to the Ninth Prince’s shop in Singles Kingdom!

"That Emperor Grade Immortal Sword... was it opened by them?"

Only when Wyatt and his companions left the shop did the manager snap back to reality, murmuring to himself.

"Brother Barnes, let’s head inside and take a look."

After leaving the small shop, Emanuel Yellow looked towards the inner market of West Market.

Though Wyatt intended to return now, he knew there was no rush, so he followed Emanuel Yellow around the inner market for half a day.

Upon returning, the first thing Wyatt did was to go back to his room and take out the raw stone said to contain the ’Primordial Divine Earth,’ one of the Five Divine Beings, as described by the chaos divine fire.

"First form of Primordial Divine Earth? I wonder... what it looks like."

With curiosity, Wyatt began to break apart the raw stone, sweeping away its fragments aside, carefully examining the contents within.

During this process, Wyatt’s Divine Sense extended forward.

Soon, a dirt-colored turtle shell appeared under Wyatt’s Divine Sense, covered with countless tiny patterns, but now the entire shell was dull and lusterless.

"Hm?"

Just as Wyatt brushed away the external layer of raw stone covering the turtle shell, he was taken aback.

Because he saw a sudden burst of a grayish-yellow hue from the shell, though slightly dim and quickly vanishing, it did appear.

"You’ve misjudged... This is not the first form of Primordial Divine Earth, but clearly its third form!"

The voice of the Supreme Celestial Gold sounded, though it was directed at the chaos divine fire, Wyatt was still shocked.

The third form of Primordial Divine Earth?

The Five Divine Beings face a challenging process to evolve into the third form; this is evident with the chaos divine fire.

As for the Supreme Celestial Gold, it is still only in the second form.

And now, in his hand, this gray turtle shell is actually the third form of Primordial Divine Earth?

"I didn’t expect it to be the third form of Primordial Divine Earth... Given that it has reached the third form, how could its aura be so debilitated?"

The voice of the chaos divine fire followed, filled with sighs.

"Young man, drip a drop of your blood onto it, we’ll help you integrate it into your flesh... With us here, don’t worry about rejection."

The chaos divine fire spoke again to Wyatt.

As soon as the chaos divine fire finished speaking, Wyatt pressed his finger, letting a drop of blood fall onto the turtle shell in his hand.

The blood trickled onto the turtle shell, flowing along the tiny grooves on it.

Soon after, Wyatt distinctly felt two forces break out from within his body and envelop the turtle shell.

Soon, a faint earthy yellow light appeared on the shell, converging with the golden and gray lights, shining brightly.

Moments later, the three-colored lights fluctuated, and finally, the golden and gray lights returned to Wyatt’s body, while the earthy yellow light receded into the shell.

The next instant, Wyatt was stunned to see the turtle shell merge into his palm with a flash and disappeared without a trace.

As if it had never existed.

"Into my body?"

Wyatt instinctively inspected the inside of his body, quickly finding the turtle shell within his right arm.

Now, the turtle shell clung to his right arm, small and delicate, seamlessly affixed to his arm bone, almost as if it was one with his bone.

At the same time, Wyatt could see his ninety-nine Heavenly Veins consistently infusing the shell with Immortal Origin Force.

Accurately speaking, the shell was absorbing his Immortal Origin Force.

During this process, Wyatt Barnes could clearly feel the Immortal Origin within his body rapidly diminishing.

About a quarter of an hour later, the Immortal Origin within him had vanished by a tenth or so.

"What...what is it doing?"

Wyatt was somewhat panicked. If this continues, the Immortal Origin within his body would eventually be absorbed completely by the shell.

"Don’t panic. It’s just lacking nutrients after leaving its host for too long... In a few days, it won’t absorb your Immortal Origin anymore."

The voice of Chaos Divine Fire came, "During these days, cooperate with it by cultivating to absorb Spiritual Energy and convert it into Immortal Origin... This will also help it restore and awaken."

"Awaken?"

Upon hearing Chaos Divine Fire’s words, Wyatt let out a sigh of relief as his eyes suddenly lit up.

So, does this mean that in a few days, the Hongmeng Divine Earth will awaken?

At that moment, Wyatt dispelled distracting thoughts and began cultivating to absorb Spiritual Energy, yet he didn’t open the necklace pendant containing the Divine Crystal.

The cultivation over the next few days was not for improving his own abilities but to provide enough Immortal Origin for the Hongmeng Divine Earth.

Despite not using the Divine Crystal, he could still provide enough Immortal Origin for the Hongmeng Divine Earth.

In the following days, Wyatt stayed deeply focused on his cultivation within the room, completely unaware of the situation outside.

Outside, with the spreading news of the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword, the situation was turbulent.

In the Singles Kingdom, Loose Cultivators of the Immortal King level who received the news almost all came to the capital city and set their sights on Greene Buckingham.

However, even surrounded by many people, Greene Buckingham remained unfazed and even issued a statement that left these Loose Cultivators helpless:

"The Emperor Grade Immortal Sword has been hidden by me... Perhaps one of you may find it, but it may not be found by the one who kills me."

"I think, no one would want to kill me only to find that they haven’t obtained the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword, and then be hunted by the Skybound Tigers, right?"

This statement by Greene Buckingham left the Loose Cultivators of the Immortal King level gathered in the capital city of the Singles Kingdom feeling extremely helpless.

"Did Greene Buckingham really hide the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword? Could he be lying to us? Maybe the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword is still with him."

"Do you think if you were him, would you dare to keep the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword with you now? That’s just inviting death!"

"It’s not out of the question that he might take the risk and deceive us... but, who would want to take such a risk now? After all, killing him would lead to disturbing the Skybound Tigers!"

"At this time, no one wants to be a trailblazer... It’s a pity that we got the news too late to act before Greene Buckingham hid the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword."

...

Despite some Loose Cultivators of the Immortal King level having the intention to take risks, they do not plan to take such unnecessary risks since it’s uncertain they’d obtain the Emperor Grade Immortal Sword.

Therefore, over several continuous days, more and more of the Loose Cultivators of the Immortal King level left the Singles Kingdom capital city, leaving just a few observing.

Three days later.

This day was also the closest day to the Singles Kingdom’s royal family hosting their royal auction.

Tomorrow will be the day of the Singles Kingdom’s royal family hosting the royal auction.

"Finally, it’s quieting down."

Inside the room, feeling that the shell merged with his right arm bone was no longer absorbing his Immortal Origin, Wyatt let out a sigh of relief and stopped cultivating, opening his eyes.

"Uh... Grand Profound Divine Gold? And Chaos Divine Fire... it’s also in the third state."

Just as Wyatt opened his eyes, a young voice again sounded within him.

This was the voice of a little boy, who had just learned to speak.

"Ninety-nine Heavenly Veins... This host isn’t bad. Hey! You two, get out of this host; I want it!"

The young voice sounded again, evidently very satisfied with Wyatt’s host, yet seemed to want to drive out Grand Profound Divine Gold and Chaos Divine Fire.

"Oh... quite the temper, provoking both of us at once, seems like we’ll have to give you a taste of your current predicament."

Chaos Divine Fire’s voice came with a bit of derision, "Grand Profound Divine Gold, it seems we’ll need to combine forces once again."

"Just what I had in mind!"

Grand Profound Divine Gold’s voice followed.

In the next moment, Wyatt took an inward look and again saw a surge of gray power emerging from Chaos Divine Fire and a golden power from Grand Profound Divine Gold entwining together, heading straight for his right arm.

To be precise, heading straight for the area of the shell on his right arm bone.

And just as the powers were about to strike the shell, a layer of yellow light emanated from the surface of the shell.

At the same time, a vast yellow power surged out from within the shell, confronting the forces of Grand Profound Divine Gold and Chaos Divine Fire.

Moments later.

"Stop! Stop! You two are teaming up, have you no shame? Even if you’re trying to take this host, you should contend one at a time!"

Hongmeng Divine Earth clearly suffered, calling for a stop while continuing to taunt Grand Profound Divine Gold and Chaos Divine Fire.
