"Elder Brother Ling Tian!"
As soon as Wyatt Barnes stepped into the courtyard, he heard an extremely excited voice coming from inside.
The owner of the voice seemed like he had been waiting for him for a long time.
This voice, Wyatt was not unfamiliar with.
Seeing ’Brian Graham’, the eldest son of the Graham family emerging hastily, Wyatt smiled.
"Elder Brother Ling Tian, please."
Brian quickly ushered Wyatt into the courtyard and ordered the maiden by his side, "Without my permission, no one is allowed to come in!"
The maiden, although not knowing what happened that made the young master so agitated, obediently complied.
Quickly, Wyatt was welcomed into a spacious room by Brian.
Revision: With gleaming eyes, Brian stared at Wyatt, rubbing his hands together in excitement, completely unlike his usual composed demeanour.
"Elder Brother Ling Tian, my Spirit Gourd..."
Brain took a deep breath, looking at Wyatt with hopeful eyes.
Wyatt pretended to sigh.
Seeing Wyatt’s reaction, Brian’s expression slightly changed.
Could it be that the Grade Three Artifact Refiner refused to enhance the Spirit Gourd to the ’Grade Three Spirit Gourd’ level?
For a moment, he felt a sense of loss.
"Elder Brother Ling Tian, if my predecessor doesn’t want to help, it’s okay... I have another Grade Four Spirit Artifact besides that Spirit Gourd."
Regaining his senses, Brian began to console Wyatt.
"Brother Graham, when did I ever say that my predecessor didn’t want to help?"
Seeing Brian , Wyatt couldn’t help but laugh.
Brian was taken aback, then let out a bitter laugh.
Only then did he realize that Wyatt was intentionally sighing just now.
"Brother Graham, here."
With a wave of Wyatt’s hand, a wine gourd appeared out of thin air and he handed it to Brian.
"This is... the wine gourd I had before?"
Taking the wine gourd from Wyatt, Brian looked at the much more exquisite gourd in his hand, which emitted a faint glow, and he couldn’t help but be stunned.
The current wine gourd looked nothing like the one he had before.
"If it’s not your wine gourd, then whose can it be?"
Wyatt shook his head with a smile.
Feeling slightly embarrassed, Brian’s face reddened a bit.
At the same time, a flame formed by Origin Force suddenly ignited in his hand, which then fused into the Spirit Gourd.
In an instant, the radiance surrounding the Spirit Gourd became incomparably deep.
In the void above Brian’s head, the energy of Heaven and Earth stirred, finally converging into several spectral horned dragons...
Initially, eleven spectral horned dragons appeared, symbolizing Brian’s current cultivation level of ’Enter Void Realm Level Eight.’
Immediately after, seven more spectral horned dragons and another seven thousand spectral giant elephants appeared beside these eleven horned dragons...
The seven thousand spectral giant elephants, as if worshiping an almighty emperor, surrounded the eighteen horned dragons in the center.
"Amplifying the force of seven horned dragons and an additional seven thousand giant elephants..."
Looking up at the void above his head, Brian had a moment of stunned bewilderment.
"So, my Spirit Gourd can amplify exactly ’seven-tenths’ of my power? Now, even if it was placed amongst a pile of Grade Three Spirit Artifacts, it would still be considered top-tier?"
Brian’s heart trembled violently, what had happened was completely unexpected.
It was truly shocking!
Originally, he believed.
As long as his Spirit Gourd could be enhanced to the ’Grade Three Spirit Artifact’ level, he would be satisfied even if it could only amplify ’sixty-six’ to ’sixty-seven percent’ of his power.
But now, it was completely beyond his expectations.
Exactly seventy percent!
A Grade Three Spirit Artifact amplifying ’seventy percent’ of the power...
Even though Brian wasn’t an Artifact Refiner and didn’t know much about Artifact Refinement.
But even if you’ve never eaten pork, you’ve seen a pig run.
He was convinced that this ’seventy percent amplifying’ Grade Three Spirit Artifact would be unparalleled even in the Great Turdo Dynasty, let alone in other large dynasties... and perhaps, even in the outside territory.
Wyatt stood quietly beside, his face calm.
Brian’s changing expressions were all captured by him from start to end.
He was not surprised by Brian’s shock.
Anyone, upon knowing about the amplifying power of the Spirit Gourd, would be shocked.
"The Grade Three Spirit Artifacts that I refine, are equivalent to those refined by the Martial Emperor himself. Amplifying ’seventy percent’ power... compared across the entire Cloud Skies Continent, I’m afraid there isn’t another Artifact Refiner who could produce such a Grade Three Spirit Artifact."
Wyatt Barnes thought to himself.
Perhaps, there are still quite a few Grade Two Artifact Refiners in the Cloud Skies Continent, or even Grade One Artifact Refiners.
These Refiners might be able to effortlessly produce a Grade Two or a Grade One spiritual artifact that surpasses the amplification power of ’seventy percent’ derived from a Grade Three spiritual artifact...
Yet, if they were to create a Grade Three spiritual artifact, it would be almost impossible for them to produce one that can amplify by ’seventy percent’.
This has nothing to do with the grade of the Artifact Refiner, but with their realization and experience in artifact refining.
"In this age, I have not yet ventured to the ’outside territory’. I wonder if anyone on the Cloud Skies Continent can match the Martial Emperor of Reincarnation in terms of artifact refining..."
"But one thing is certain... During the second life of the Martial Emperor of Reincarnation, no Artifact Refiner in the Cloud Skies Continent could surpass him!"
This, through the memory of the Martial Emperor of Reincarnation, was confirmed without a doubt by Wyatt Barnes.
Gradually, Wyatt Barnes pulled back his thoughts.
Brian Graham finally came back to his senses, lovingly caressing the spiritual artifact gourd in his hand, his eyes filled with a warm glow.
"Brother Graham, that elder mentioned... he only enhanced the ’amplification power’ of your Wine Gourd. He did not increase the capacity of your Gourd."
Wyatt Barnes looked at Brian Graham, laughing, "So, the amount of wine your Gourd could hold in the past is still the same amount it can hold now."
Brian came back to his senses, shaking his head, "That doesn’t matter... its original capacity was enough for me."
Upon saying this, Brian Graham completely sobered up, took a deep breath, looked sincerely at Wyatt Barnes and said, "Elder Brother Ling Tian, thank you."
Brian’s thanks were heartfelt.
"Brother Graham, you are being too polite... Our acquaintance is also a kind of destiny. Besides, during our encounter in the Desolate Ancient City of the Green Forest Royal Country, if you hadn’t helped me, I’m afraid I would have died at the hands of that old man."
Wyatt Barnes shook his head and smiled as he slowly spoke.
Recalling the thrilling scene in the Eternal Wine Shop in the Desolate Ancient City, he still felt a lingering fear.
At that time, not only was Fill Bear’s cultivation destroyed, even he and Jovie Lee were in danger.
At the critical moment, it was Brian Graham who killed that old man.
This life-saving favor, Wyatt Barnes will never forget.
"The saying goes, ’what goes around comes around, good deeds will be rewarded’. In the past, I didn’t believe in this saying. Today, I do."
With the reminder of Wyatt Barnes, Brian couldn’t help but reminisce about that past scene and expressed his realization.
"Elder Brother Ling Tian."
Brian Graham’s face soon became solemn, and he spoke word by word, "In the future, no matter what you ask of me, I, Brian Graham, will risk everything to help you, no matter the cost!"
As for Grade Three spiritual artifacts, openly shown in the Great Turdo Dynasty, there was only one.
Moreover, it was in the hands of the Great Turdo Dynasty’s Imperial Family.
Now, Wyatt Barnes gifted him a Grade Three spiritual artifact, which was a great favor to him, and he couldn’t repay this kindness.
"Brother Graham, you’re being too serious... but, I do have something I’d like you to help with."
Wyatt Barnes said with a smile.
Brian listened carefully.
"Brother Graham, if possible, I would like you to use your connections to help me find a very rare medicinal ingredient... The one drawn on this picture is the ingredient, I call it the ’Everlasting Root’."
Upon raising his hand, Wyatt Barnes held a drawing.
On it, a root-like medicinal ingredient appeared, which looks like the legendary Divine Beast ’Phoenix’s’ claw upon close examination.
Brian’s eyebrows raised in interest. He respectfully took the drawing from Wyatt’s hand, "Rest assured Elder Brother Ling Tian, I will do my best to find this medicinal ingredient for you!"
"Thank you, Brother Graham."
Wyatt Barnes gave thanks promptly, then said, "Furthermore, if Brother Graham can obtain any unused Enter Void Realm martial artist’s spiritual fruit that you are not utilising, I hope you could transfer it to me... I am prepared to reward you generously!"
At this point, Wyatt Barnes hesitated.
After all, Brian Graham was also an Enter Void Realm martial artist.
He, like Wyatt, was also striving to get to the ’Ten Dynasty Martial Meeting’.
If he hasn’t consumed the spiritual fruit in the past, he certainly wouldn’t give it to others.
Everyone has a selfish side.
Wyatt Barnes could understand this.
"Elder Brother Ling Tian, if you say so, you are not considering me as a friend... You had someone upgrade my Wine Gourd to a Grade Three Spiritual Artifact, and have done me a great favor. If I can truly obtain the Spiritual Fruit specialized for the Enter Void Realm martial artists, I would offer it willingly, without a blink."
Brian Graham responded solemnly.
"Thank you, Brother Graham."
Wyatt Barnes thanked him again, and then said, "Brother Graham, in that case, I will take my leave now."
"Elder Brother Ling Tian, why not stay here till before the ’Dynasty Martial Competition’?"
Brian Graham suggested.
Wyatt Barnes tactfully declined Brian Graham’s kind offer, "I have some matters to attend to at my place, so it’s more convenient to go back."
Last time he visited the Treasure Pavilion in Thames River City, he had discussed with Pavilion Master Valiant Charlesworth that if there was any news about the Enter Void Realm martial artist’s specialized spiritual fruit and the ’Everlasting Root’, Charlesworth would look for him at the Great Turdo Dynasty’s residence in the capital of Emperor Stone’s country.
If Charlesworth had news and came to visit him and he was not there, he would certainly regret it.
Brian Graham nodded in agreement, without any further insistence.
"I will see you out."
Subsequently, Brian Graham prepared himself to bid Wyatt Barnes farewell from the Graham Family mansion.
Just as the two men walked out of the courtyard side by side, they saw a figure rushing towards them. It was none other than ’Ann King’.
