Chapter 61: Advancing To Gold-Tier

“It’s definitely not a loss to exchange 100 Rainbow Phoenix Chicken eggs with a normal gold tier cultivation method because gold tier cultivation methods are usually worth thousands of gold coins, and when it comes to dark-elemental combat auras, the value is ten times higher.”
Watson rubbed his chin, and his eyes revealed a brilliant light.
“It’s not that I don’t believe in your credibility, Miss Nightingale, but I’m not sure if I have the talent to cultivate a dark-elemental combat aura. I hope you will let me see the cultivation manual that you’ve mentioned, and then I’ll decide whether to accept your proposal.”
“Very well.” Nightingale thought carefully before she nodded in agreement.
Watson’s request was not excessive; it was in line with his cautious character. Furthermore, she had eaten many Rainbow Phoenix Chicken eggs in the past two days purely as a reward. She should let Watson see the cultivation technique that she was cultivating.
After she made up her mind, Nightingale stretched her slender right hand outward. A ball of fiery black fog slowly emerged from the shadow that swayed behind her. It carried an old yellow book with a few mysterious symbols outlined in ancient words.
She controlled the book to fly toward Watson; Nightingale said, “This is the cultivation technique that I practice. You only need to flip through the first half. Before you become a gold tier warrior, it’s best not to go through the second half. This is my advice for you—Just flip through the first half. If you’re lucky, you’ll only need a few days to obtain an iron tier dark-elemental combat aura.”
Watson glanced at Nightingale in surprise. He did not expect her to hide her cultivation technique in the shadows. However, it seemed that her shadow moved like a living thing with enough space to hold items. That showed the magic of Nightingale’s combat aura. When a warrior reached a high level, he would be similar to a mage in some areas. Watson believed that there were more magic places for him to explore.
“I hope I have the talent to cultivate a dark-elemental combat aura,” Watson said.
It did not matter if he did not; for the warrior cultivators, it was not difficult for them to cultivate. Even if they did not have the talent for combat aura, they could grasp its particular element as long as they worked hard. The only difference was their speed to achieve that; for example, those who had the talent to cultivate light-elemental combat aura could obtain it in a day, and those without skill might need a month or even a year.
That was why many guards gave up on training in light-elemental combat aura even though they had spent so much time on it. It would only make them weaker if they trained so forcefully.
Watson did not have such concern. He wanted to train in dark-elemental combat aura not to become stronger but to complete the fusion for his combat aura as he had always done. He had used four types of combat aura to fuse the light-elemental combat aura, and with the addition of the dark-elemental combat aura, he would have gathered all kinds of combat aura. He did not know what that combination would produce.
He opened the book in his hand with anticipation. On the first page, he saw many complicated black symbols—they were difficult to understand. He did not recognize them, but the corresponding meaning appeared in his mind.
Bang!
It was a soft sound; Watson’s hand on the book did not move. A faint black flame emerged from the shadow and burned quietly; it made his shadow look as if it was alive and slightly distorted.
Nightingale, who was next to him, casually put a peeled egg into her mouth and nodded discreetly.
‘This guy is quite talented in cultivating dark-elemental combat aura. He has already contracted a faint hint of it in such a short time. I think he will become an iron-tier dark-elemental warrior in a week! In less than a year, he will be able to upgrade it to silver-tier. I heard that he is a silver-tier warrior, and he has the talent to master both light and dark-elemental combat aura at the same time. Amazing!’
Nightingale looked at Watson as if she was looking at a rising star. In her heart, she praised Count Sylvane for his foresight. No wonder he valued Blackmoon Castle so much. It turned out that he had already foreseen the strength of its owner; as long as Watson grew up healthily, he would definitely dominate the border and become a person comparable to the border count.
When she decided to pass on what had happened in the castle to the border count, a sudden change occurred.
Watson, who had just mastered a trace of dark-elemental combat aura, suddenly shut the book in his hand and closed his eyes. He frowned slightly in pain, and his eyebrows changed to a golden hue at the speed of light. His brown hair was also covered in a layer of flame that burned rapidly.
Behind him, the shadow squirmed, and the black flame covered his legs and lower body with another layer of darkness.
The shadow and the light formed a clear boundary.
[Master, you have failed to fuse with the light and dark-elemental combat aura for the first time. Please choose to either give up or continue trying! If you decide to continue, it may significantly increase your strength, but it might also harm the world.]
The system notification echoed in his ears. Watson felt a tearing sensation from within his body as the corners of his mouth twitched. He had not expected that fusing with light and dark-elemental combat aura would be so difficult. That was the first time he had failed to fuse something; he felt that the light and dark elements were even more opposing than the water and fire elements. It was like hope and destruction could not be mixed at all.
A slight contact with them would cause a complete annihilation. It was like a volcano had erupted, and it caused Watson’s flesh and blood to break.
“Continue trying.”
Watson clenched his teeth as he constricted a hint of dark combat aura again.
The system said that the fusion of light and dark combat aura would cause harm to the world, but he did not believe it at all. He was only a silver-tier warrior. He was not even worthy of the border count’s attention, let alone the world. The system must have wanted to scare him, but he did not care. If he had to harm the world to get stronger, then so be it.
[Second fusion failed.]
“Continue.”
[Third attempt failed.]
[Failed...]
The system continued to repeat the sound of failure until Watson’s eighth fusion. Then, finally, the echo of a successful notification rang in his ears.
[Congratulations, Master, on the successful fusion. You have created an element that does not belong to this world—chaos. Because it is your first time creating an element that does not belong to this world, you have received an additional gift. You have obtained a world-class tool—the Source of Chaotic Magic.]
[Congratulations, Master, the combat aura in your body has been successfully converted into chaotic elements. Your strength has been raised to gold-tier. ]
‘So the fusion of light and darkness is chaos... This world does not have such an element. No wonder the system kept failing. To create an element that does not belong to this world is comparable to the gods from the myths. No, even the gods can’t do it. Well, at least the creator could do it. This system that has been bound to me is too powerful.’
Watson sighed. He had always used the fusion system as fusion magic. It seemed like the system was even more powerful than he had imagined. There were many secrets that waited for him to explore.
The thought flashed through his mind, and the huge change that came with his body interrupted his thoughts.
After Watson fused with the chaotic aura, a pair of flaming red wings appeared on his back. Those were Phoenix Wings, followed by a pair of holy wings that shone with dazzling radiance. Finally, a pair of dark wings that looked like bat wings appeared on his back.
There were three pairs of wings; each was different and exuded a distinctive and powerful aura.
Then, the three pairs of wings disappeared simultaneously and merged into two clusters of gray air currents. They looked like a god’s pupils that overlooked the world.
The moment those gray pupils appeared, the guards who had been training around Watson knelt, one after another. They dared to look at Watson. If they were to see the young master, even for a single moment, they would feel a piercing pain in their eyes.
“What happened?”
Nightingale had just picked up another Rainbow Phoenix Chicken egg. Before she managed to put it in her mouth, the egg dropped and rolled on the ground. She opened her mouth wide; she ignored the egg. She just looked at Watson. She noticed an obscure gray pillar of light had appeared on Watson’s body; then, it had shot straight toward the sky.
