Chapter 2976: Divine Tree of Life

"Kid, you must get it!"

"At all costs!"

"If you miss it this time, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life!"

The Three Great Five Elements Divine Spirits—Mystic Divine Gold, Chaos Divine Fire, and Primordial Divine Soil—urgently urged Wyatt Barnes to obtain the nameless tree branch.

In such a situation, although Wyatt didn’t know what the nameless tree branch was, he hastily opened his mouth to bid more.

Three hundred thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals!

After announcing this price, Wyatt couldn’t help but smile bitterly inside.

All the Immortal Crystals he had, amounted to only a little over two hundred thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals...

Of course, besides Immortal Crystals, he had King-grade Immortal Artifacts that could be sold for more crystals.

Before coming today, he heard Emanuel Yellow say that at the Singles Kingdom Royal Auction, certain items could be used as collateral for more crystals.

For example, a complete King-grade Immortal Artifact could be used as collateral for a hundred thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals.

And within the territory of Mystic Abyss Mansion, a complete King-grade Immortal Artifact, even the worst one could sell for a hundred thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals, and a better one would fetch even more.

"The King-grade Immortal Artifacts I have are not only complete but are not the worst kind either... yet, collateralizing them would lead to a great loss."

As Wyatt murmured to himself, he remembered the unusual behavior of Mystic Divine Gold, Chaos Divine Fire, and Primordial Divine Soil, "But, if I can obtain this nameless tree branch, the loss might be worth it."

Though they haven’t told him what the nameless tree branch actually was...

From their agitated behavior, it was clear that this nameless tree branch was anything but ordinary!

"Could this nameless tree branch be another of the Five Elements Divine Spirits—the ’Heavenly Divine Wood’?"

Wyatt speculated.

The Five Elements Divine Spirits correspond to metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

And the Five Elements Divine Spirits are Mystic Divine Gold, Heavenly Divine Wood, Pure World Divine Water, Chaos Divine Fire, and Primordial Divine Soil.

This was something he had already heard from the Chaos Divine Fire.

"Brother Barnes?"

Seeing Wyatt participating in the bidding and starting with ’three hundred thousand top-grade Immortal Crystals,’ Emanuel Yellow was dumbfounded, staring at him.

As for Ismael Yellow and Elder Inky, both of their gazes fell on Wyatt as well.

"Wyatt, do you know what that is?"

Ismael Yellow asked tentatively.

"I don’t know."

Faced with Ismael Yellow’s inquiry, Wyatt smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just feel this thing is not simple... If I miss it, I might regret it."

"This thing is indeed not simple... It’s the first time in my life I’ve seen such a peculiar phenomenon."

Ismael Yellow remarked.

"If it’s a material for refining Immortal Pills... the pills made from it would definitely be extraordinary."

Then, Emanuel Yellow, recovering from his shock, looked at Wyatt and asked, "Brother Barnes, you suspect this nameless tree branch is some kind of alchemical material, don’t you?"

However, presently, Wyatt’s gaze was fixed intently on the nameless tree branch in the hands of the elder on the auction stage, as if he hadn’t heard Emanuel Yellow’s words.

And since Wyatt remained silent, both Emanuel Yellow and Ismael Yellow, along with Elder Inky, believed he tacitly agreed.

"It’s not the Heavenly Divine Wood... If it was merely the Heavenly Divine Wood, it wouldn’t make the three of us so agitated!"

Upon hearing Wyatt ask whether the nameless tree branch was the ’Heavenly Divine Wood’ of the Five Elements Divine Spirits, the Chaos Divine Fire immediately denied it.

"It’s not the Heavenly Divine Wood... Then what is it?"

Wyatt asked.

"It’s the Life Divine Tree!"

Replied the Mystic Divine Gold.

"The Life Divine Tree? What is that?"

Wyatt inquired again.

"Kid, you don’t need to know what the Life Divine Tree is now... You only need to know that if you obtain one of the main branches of this Life Divine Tree, you’ll have the chance to comprehend one of the finest Laws—the ’Life Law’ in the future."

The Primordial Divine Soil continued, its childlike voice filled with reverence, as if praying.

"The Life Law cannot be comprehended through Immortal Methods or Divine Abilities... The strongest Laws that can be comprehended through Immortal Methods or Divine Abilities only belong to the second tier of Laws in this world."

"But the Life Law is among the top tier of the few supreme Laws."

The Primordial Divine Soil added.

"This nameless tree branch, as one of the main branches of the Life Divine Tree, doesn’t just possibly help you in comprehending the Life Law... It also has many other applications that will benefit your future greatly."

As the Mystic Divine Gold reached this point, it paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, it can also provide us with considerable help."

Towards the end, the Mystic Divine Gold’s tone carried an unmistakable eagerness.

"Kid, as long as you can get this main branch of the Life Divine Tree... I will not only tell you what I can help you with, but I will provide you unconditional support whenever you need help!"

The Primordial Divine Soil spoke again, its childlike voice also brimming with an intense eagerness.

Hearing the words of the Primordial Divine Soil, Wyatt’s eyes narrowed sharply.

It seems that this main branch of the so-called Life Divine Tree truly could provide significant assistance to the Mystic Divine Gold, Primordial Divine Soil, and Chaos Divine Fire.

Otherwise, they would never have urged him so eagerly to get hold of the main branch of the Life God Tree.

"Three hundred and ten thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals!"

Inside the auction venue, Everett Clive, Vice Sect Leader of the Eight Grade Sect Thousand Hands Sect, quickly raised the bid after Wyatt Barnes.

The crowd hadn’t even had time to catch their breath.

Wyatt Barnes spoke again, "Three hundred and fifty thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals!"

Once he opened his mouth, he immediately added forty thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals!

Everett’s brow furrowed.

He hadn’t expected that someone in the Autumn Holding Kingdom’s box would bid so aggressively for that Nameless Tree Twig.

This time, after Wyatt’s bid, Everett stopped bidding.

To him, the reason for participating in the auction was out of curiosity to collect the Nameless Tree Twig.

As a collectible, three hundred and ten thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals was already his limit.

"The one bidding in the Autumn Holding Kingdom’s box... it’s not the City Lord of Ducoin City, Ismael Yellow, is it?"

"The voice sounds young... According to what I know, of the few people from Autumn Holding Kingdom here, there are only two young men. One of them is Emanuel Yellow, son of Ismael Yellow, and the other is the genius Loose Cultivator, Wyatt Barnes, who recently appeared on the South Heaven Arena in Autumn Holding Kingdom!"

"The voice should be Wyatt Barnes’s."

...

At this moment, many people guessed that the current bidder was Wyatt Barnes.

"Wyatt Barnes?"

"Could it be... he also recognizes the Life God Tree?"

In the box where the Eastbright Kingdom delegation was seated, a young man with a cold expression wearing gray clothes had an elusive glimmer in his eyes.

This gray-clothed youth was none other than the genius Loose Cultivator, Bruno Fortin, who had recently made his name on the South Heaven Arena in Eastbright Kingdom!

The moment the elderly man on the auction stage opened the jade box, Bruno recognized it as one of the main branches of the Life God Tree.

For the average person, the main branch of the Life God Tree is an absolute treasure.

Anyone obtaining a main branch of the Life God Tree might have a chance to comprehend the Life Law.

But, for him, it was a useless opportunity.

Because the Life Law counteracts his family’s inherited Law Rule, and his bloodline restricts him from ever comprehending the Life Law.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals, once!"

"Three hundred and fifty thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals, twice!"

After Wyatt Barnes placed his bid, no one else made an offer, and the elderly man on the auction stage began the countdown.

"I wonder if Wyatt Barnes truly recognized that as a main branch of the Life God Tree or purely intends to collect it."

"If it’s the former, then this Wyatt Barnes is definitely not simple... After all, even across the small South Heaven’s Borderlands, including the Immortal Emperor of South Heaven, there may not be anyone who can recognize a main branch of the Life God Tree."

"And if it’s the latter, then Wyatt Barnes is at most just lucky."

Seeing the main branch of the Life God Tree about to fall into Wyatt Barnes’s hands, Bruno Fortin mumbled to himself at the box window.

Throughout, he had no intention of telling the others in Eastbright Kingdom about the Life God Tree’s main branch.

Because he knew, even if he did tell, the people of Eastbright Kingdom wouldn’t understand it, and might not even believe him.

Plus, there was a risk in revealing his identity.

Therefore, he didn’t say much to the people of Eastbright Kingdom.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals, thrice!"

At the same time, the elderly man on the auction stage announced the ownership of the Nameless Tree Twig in his hand.

Wyatt Barnes successfully acquired the Nameless Tree Twig.

"Brother Barnes, don’t you have enough Immortal Crystals?"

Inside the box, Emanuel Yellow looked at Wyatt Barnes and asked.

"I have nearly twenty-five million mid-grade Immortal Crystals, which can be converted to two hundred and fifty thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals... As for the remaining hundred thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals, I can just offer a King Grade Immortal Artifact."

Wyatt Barnes laughed.

Even though he didn’t have enough Immortal Crystals, offering a King Grade Immortal Artifact would cover it.

"Wyatt, there’s no need to pledge the King Grade Immortal Artifact."

Ismael Yellow stopped Wyatt Barnes and added, "Here, I’ll lend you one hundred thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals for now... Once the MysticGolden Elixir is sold later, you can pay me back."

"In that case, thank you, Uncle Yellow."

Wyatt Barnes naturally knew that Ismael Yellow meant well; pledging his King Grade Immortal Artifact would certainly result in a loss.

Ismael Yellow’s actions clearly showed he didn’t want Wyatt to suffer a loss.

Therefore, he didn’t refuse.

Besides, he was confident he could refine two MysticGolden Elixirs with those two Gold Thread Worms, and selling just one MysticGolden Elixir would easily fetch him ten thousand Supreme Immortal Crystals.

Seeing Wyatt Barnes hand over a Storage Ring filled with enough Immortal Crystals and pocket the Nameless Tree Twig, Emanuel Yellow couldn’t help but exclaim:

"Brother Barnes, I’m really impressed with you..."

"How did you come by those twenty-five million mid-grade Immortal Crystals?"
