Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1281: Flood Dragon

Chapter 1281: Chapter 1281: Flood Dragon

Materials for refining the ’Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon’ had been almost fully prepared by Wyatt Barnes during his last visit to Mist Hidden City.

Additionally, with the ’Steel Inky’ material for artifact refining obtained from the ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasury’ left by Martial Emperor Qingfeng, he could now craft Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon bows and arrows.

"I wonder how long this cultivation session lasted."

Wyatt didn’t rush to refine the Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon. Instead, he stepped out of his wooden hut to check the ’Killing Array’ he had set up around before reassuringly departing.

The Killing Array was established when he and the two young girls built the wooden hut.

This Killing Array could instantly kill beings below the seventh level of the Martial Emperor Realm, and even those above the seventh level of Martial Emperor Realm but below Martial Emperor could enter and suffer serious injuries, if not death.

It was precisely because of this Killing Array that he dared to leave the young girls sleeping and head to Mist Hidden City to prepare materials for Pill Medicine and Artifact Refining.

This time, he left for Mist Hidden City again.

His trip to Mist Hidden City this time was just to find out when the ’Mist Hidden Martial Meet’ would start.

"Forty days later?"

Soon, Wyatt obtained his answer.

"It seems this cultivation took me just over a month."

Wyatt thought to himself.

He still remembered.

When he reunited with the two young girls, there were two months and twenty days left until the ’Mist Hidden Martial Meet’. Now, only forty days were left. In other words, a month and ten days.

Subtracting the few days he spent intimately with the two girls, he spent just over a month in cultivation.

After confirming the time, Wyatt left Mist Hidden City.

On the way back, Wyatt suddenly recalled something and sighed deeply.

"The medicinal power of the ’Nirvana Pill’ is completely gone..."

Now, inside his dantian, the medicinal power of the Nirvana Pill was no longer present; to be precise, it had been completely depleted.

The reason his cultivation progressed so rapidly all this while was due to the Nirvana Pill.

Now that the Nirvana Pill was gone, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss.

However, his attention quickly shifted elsewhere.

"Now that I, having broken through to the ’Martial Emperor Realm’, can produce ’Emperor Grade Qi Fire’... According to the memories of the Reincarnation Martial Emperor, refining an Emperor Grade Spiritual Weapon is nothing difficult for me."

On this point, Wyatt had no doubt.

The Reincarnation Martial Emperor was inherently a powerful Emperor Grade Artifact Refiner.

With the memories of the Reincarnation Martial Emperor merged into him, refining with his capabilities was equivalent to the reincarnation of the Reincarnation Martial Emperor himself, facing no pressure or difficulty.

"However, according to the memories of the Reincarnation Martial Emperor, he has never crafted bow and arrow type spiritual weapons above ’Quasi-Emperor Grade’. The best bow and arrow type spiritual weapons he ever made were only ’Grade One Spiritual Weapons’."

"Does that mean the cow tendon from the Transforming Void Realm bovine Demon Beast I bought earlier is just for Grade One Spiritual Weapon bows and arrows?"

Wyatt quickly realized from the Reincarnation Martial Emperor’s memories that the cow tendon he had prepared as bowstring was just for Grade One Spiritual Weapon bows and arrows.

Three points are most crucial for a bow and arrow.

First, the bow must be strong.

Second, the arrow must be good.

Both of these were not difficult for Wyatt, following standard spiritual weapon refinement.

Third, the bowstring!

It was precisely because of the bow and arrow type Grade One Spiritual Weapon in the memory of Reincarnation Martial Emperor that Wyatt went to Mist Hidden City to buy a cow tendon.

At that time, to obtain that cow tendon, he visited more than a dozen shops.

The tendon wasn’t ordinary but came from a ninth-level Transforming Void Realm bovine Demon Beast, a rare find indeed.

Although there are many ninth-level Transforming Void Realm Demon Beasts, not all contain materials suitable for ’bowstrings’.

According to the memories of the Reincarnation Martial Emperor, only the ’cow tendons’ of bovine Demon Beasts and ’dragon tendons’ of dragons were most suitable for ’bowstrings’.

Bovine Demon Beasts were manageable.

But dragons were elusive beings of legend.

Of course, it didn’t have to be the tendons of the legendary Divine Dragons; even the ’dragon tendons’ from snakes that transformed into ’Flood Dragons’ were ideal.

Though slightly inferior, they were definitely stronger than cow tendons.

"Flood Dragons... The weakest among them are above the Demon Emperor Realm! The strong ones are even in the Demon Emperor Realm, their strength incomparable to ordinary Demon Emperors."

At this moment, Wyatt learned much from the memories of Reincarnation Martial Emperor.

For instance, python-type Demon Beasts generally undergo a transformation once they break into the ’Void Realm’, becoming ’Pseudo-Flood Dragons’, though they are essentially still snakes.

Only upon breaking into the ’Martial Emperor Realm’ would they truly transform into ’Flood Dragons’, becoming powerful beings!

Only Flood Dragons could be truly called ’dragons’.

Of course, they are the lowest level of dragons.

Under the pressure of a real Divine Dragon, they were undoubtedly like ants.

"Flood Dragons... When in the Demon Emperor Realm, are termed ’Silver Flood Dragons’. Once they break through to the ’Martial Emperor Realm’, they undergo another transformation, becoming ’Golden Flood Dragons’!"

"Flood Dragon Demon Emperors, once they transform into their true form, their bodies shine with golden scales... Especially their pair of dragon horns, which seem to be made of gold."

These, are all known by Wyatt Barnes through the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor.

The Reincarnated Martial Emperor, having lived through two lifetimes, had once seen the true form of a Flood Dragon, which was a ’Silver Flood Dragon’ he encountered in the seas outside the Cloud Skies Continent.

"Based on the Reincarnated Martial Emperor’s lifelong experience in artifact refining... the ’bowstring’ needed for forging a Grade One spiritual weapon bow must use the ’cow tendon’ from a cow-like Demon Beast of the Transforming Void Realm."

"To forge an almost Emperor Grade or Emperor Grade spiritual weapon bow and arrow, the ’bowstring’... will at least need the ’tendon’ of a Demon Emperor Realm or higher Demon Beast! It must be either the ’cow tendon’ of a cow-like Demon Beast or the ’dragon tendons’ of a Flood Dragon."

Thinking of this, Wyatt Barnes had a headache.

Not to mention the elusive ’Flood Dragon,’ even cow-like Demon Beasts above the Demon Emperor Realm were extremely rare.

The Reincarnated Martial Emperor only ever encountered one Flood Dragon in his two lifetimes.

As for cow-like Demon Beasts above the Demon Emperor Realm, he had only encountered three.

"Forget it... let’s try anyway."

Feeling extremely troubled, Wyatt Barnes shook his head, prepared to first forge the ’bow body’ and ’arrows’, and later see if the ’cow tendon’ he had could be used.

"Perhaps, the Emperor Grade spiritual weapon level ’bow body’ and ’arrows’ I forge could compensate for the shortcomings of the Grade One spiritual weapon level ’bowstring’... When combined together, even if they are only considered an almost Emperor Grade spiritual weapon, I would accept that."

Wyatt Barnes braced himself for this possibility.

Even an almost Emperor Grade spiritual weapon was already considered at the threshold of ’sacred weapons’, sufficient to aid his training in the inherited sacred martial arts "Supreme Falling Star Arrow" left by his cheap foster father.

After returning to the wooden cabin, taking a glance at the two little girls who were still cultivating, Wyatt Barnes left the wooden cabin again.

Forge refining a spiritual weapon was, compared to crafting Pill Medicine, much louder and space-demanding.

After all, crafting Pill Medicine was done in a medicine tripod.

Even if turbulent transformations happened inside the medicine tripod, the outside would remain calm and unaffected.

But the forging of spiritual weapons was different.

Hiss!

Hovering in the air outside the wooden cabin, Wyatt Barnes raised his hand, and a strand of dazzling golden flame appeared, shimmering like the scorching sun, extremely piercing to the eyes.

The golden flames rampaged and stirred, making the surrounding air turn scorching hot.

Gusts of wind turned into hot air, feeling like one was engulfed in flames when it blew over one’s body.

The flame now appearing in Wyatt Barnes’ hand was the ’Emperor Grade Instrument Fire’!

The ’Emperor Grade Instrument Fire’ capable of forging Emperor Grade spiritual weapons!

Once the Emperor Grade Instrument Fire appeared, Wyatt Barnes’ expression also turned solemn, and as he raised his hand, materials appeared one by one, all swallowed by the Emperor Grade Instrument Fire.

Including the ’Steel Inky’ he acquired from the secret stash of the Martial Emperor, all materials disappeared into the ferociously expanding Emperor Grade Instrument Fire.

The Emperor Grade Instrument Fire seemed to transform into a giant flame beast, swallowing everything into its belly.

Time quietly passed.

An hour quickly went by.

At this time, Wyatt Barnes’ forehead began to sweat.

Although he had merged the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, forging an Emperor Grade spiritual weapon, even for the Reincarnated Martial Emperor himself, was not something to be taken lightly.

Thus, naturally, Wyatt Barnes felt pressured.

Fortunately, because he perfectly integrated the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, equivalent to the Reincarnated Martial Emperor personally forging, there were no problems.

Another two hours passed.

"Finally, it’s starting to melt."

Wyatt Barnes’ gaze was intense, closely watching the abruptly flourishing Emperor Grade Instrument Fire in his hand.

At this moment, he could clearly see.

Within the Emperor Grade Instrument Fire, the last piece of material finally began to soften.

This material was ’Steel Inky.’

Steel Inky was an indispensable material for forging almost Emperor Grade and even Emperor Grade spiritual weapons.

Through the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, Wyatt Barnes learned.

If using almost Emperor Grade Instrument Fire to refine Steel Inky, it would take three days and three nights, but with Emperor Grade Instrument Fire, it only took a few hours.

Under the scorching of Wyatt Barnes’ Emperor Grade Instrument Fire, Steel Inky finally started to soften.

Another hour passed, and the Steel Inky finally turned into a pool of liquid, which with Wyatt Barnes’ exquisite artifact refining technique, casually came together, merging with the liquid of other materials.

What followed was much simpler.

With the assistance of the Emperor Grade Instrument Fire, the Emperor Grade spiritual weapon level bow body and arrows slowly revealed their form.

After another half-day, the formative bow body and arrows finally took on their final form in the raging Emperor Grade Instrument Fire.

With the extinguishing of the Emperor Grade Instrument Fire, the bow body and the arrows slowly fell, landing in Wyatt Barnes’ hands.

Whether it was the bow body or the arrows, they were completely dark, showing no reflection.

Even under sunlight, they continued as before, pitch-black as ink, without a hint of reflective signs.

Actually, this was also intentionally done by Wyatt Barnes.

The most powerful aspect of a bow and arrow was often its element of surprise.

Especially within the darkness of night.

A bow and arrow that wouldn’t reflect light due to moonlight was undoubtedly the best lethal weapon!
