Rebirth : The Alchemist's Path

"Is there anything else?"

Seeing Ronald hesitating to speak, Sylvus asked indifferently.

"Boss, do you think you could help me undergo the tribulation too?"

Ronald asked with an awkward smile.

Although he was confident enough to face the tribulation, why go through such suffering when he could easily become a Divine Mage with Sylvus's help?

And with Sylvus around, the success rate was practically one hundred percent.

"So, what price can you offer?"

Sylvus asked with a smile.

Ronald's eyes lit up. Since Sylvus mentioned a price, that meant he could help him with the tribulation.

However, thinking about the current situation of the Titan race, he could only sigh.

"Boss, I'll be honest with you. Although we Titans still have some magic crystals left, most have been used to forge items for you, leaving only about one hundred thousand usable ones."

Ronald didn't deceive Sylvus.

To help Sylvus create the Heavenly Battleship, the Titan race had given everything they had.

And crafting something wasn't a guaranteed success on the first try.

If it weren't for Boone and Elena's support, the Titans would have already gone bankrupt.

"Then let's say two trillion, with one hundred billion for each Heavenly Lightning Tribulation."

Sylvus thought for a moment before saying.

The Titan race was on the verge of being completely drained by him.

They had already exhausted all their resources forging the Divine Heavenly Battleship for free.

Even though he felt some sympathy for the Titans, rules were rules, and Sylvus still had to charge them.

Upon hearing the price, Ronald's eyes lit up.

If it was only two trillion magic crystals, he could manage that.

"No problem, boss. I'll head back to get the money and will return tomorrow for your help with the tribulation."

Ronald said hastily.

Sylvus nodded and then remembered something, turning to Ronald.

"By the way, how is the progress on the battleship?"

"Boss, the blueprint you provided is too complex. So far, we've only managed to create an outline, but the main cannon has been completed."

Ronald said with a bitter smile.

"Oh? The main cannon is ready? Can it be used?"

Sylvus asked.

"It can be used, but we need some more time to test it."

Sylvus nodded.

"Alright, I'll give you ten days to get the main cannon fully ready. I plan to use it then."

Ten days would be enough time for him to become a Divine-level power.

Once that was done, he would use the Divine Gateway to open a path to the Divine Realm.

Then he could explore the Divine Realm and test out the cannon.

"No problem, boss, five days will be enough."

With that, Ronald and the other two left.

Sylvus finished munching on his sunflower seeds, then returned to his room to continue training, hoping to break through to the Divine level as soon as possible.

The next morning, Ronald arrived at the small shop with the money.

Sylvus, true to his word, started channeling the magic crystals to assist with the tribulation.

And being a member of the Titan race, Ronald absorbed the Heavenly Lightning Tribulation very quickly.

In just about four hours, he successfully broke through to the Ruler Knight level.

Sylvus also got a glimpse of Ronald's true form.

He was a hundred meters tall, and a single punch could cause a distant mountain to collapse.

"Thank you, boss, for your assistance."

Feeling his newfound power, Ronald transformed back into his human form, looking at Sylvus with excitement.

"No problem. Just remember to bring my main cannon when it's ready."

Sylvus said with a smile.

Ronald nodded and soon left.

After all, just breaking through to the Ruler Knight level, he needed to vent his energy a bit.

Three nights later.

"I've finally reached the Eight-Star Mage Emperor level. Once the system shop refreshes tonight, by tomorrow I should be able to reach the Nine-Star Mage Emperor level."

Sylvus thought as he sat on the living room sofa.

[System Prompt: System shop has been refreshed, please check it.]

After midnight, the system's voice echoed, and Sylvus opened the system shop to take a look.

Breakthrough Pill: Host-exclusive, helps the host break through one minor level, price: ten billion points.

Seeing the first item, Sylvus smiled.

The system truly knew him well, providing just the item he needed.

[System Prompt: Host has spent ten billion points and successfully purchased the Breakthrough Pill, which has been stored in the system space, please check it.]

In the past, Sylvus might have taken his time to look at the remaining two items before deciding which to buy first.

But now it was different; wealth had made him bold.

Luminous Shell: Usable by the Divine Heavenly Battleship's main cannon, unleashes terrifying power, price: one hundred trillion points.

"Whoa, that's steep! System, just how powerful is this thing?"

Seeing the second item, Sylvus couldn't help but exclaim.

He had just been feeling rich, but now there was an item worth a hundred trillion points.

[Host, its power is enough to annihilate a Spirit-Level Deity . Even a True Deity would be gravely injured.]

Upon hearing the system's words, Sylvus's eyes lit up; even True Deitys couldn't withstand it.

He had already asked the system before about the hierarchy of power in the Divine Realm.

He knew the ranking was: Lower Deity , Intermediate Deity , Higher Deity , Celestial Deity , True Deity , Deity King, Deity Sovereign, and Deity Emperor, each divided into nine stars.

On the continent of Ezlar, Ruler Mages and Ruler Knights didn't even count as Lower Deitys in the Divine Realm, as they lacked a complete divine core.

Now, the system was telling him that a single shell could defeat a True Deity-level entity.

That was indeed terrifying.

After all, True Deitys were considered top-tier powerhouses in the Divine Realm.

"Buy it! Why hesitate on something so good?"

Sylvus gritted his teeth and clicked to purchase.

[System Prompt: Host has spent one hundred trillion points and successfully purchased the Luminous Shell, which has been stored in the system space.]

He took out the Luminous Shell and examined it; it looked like a white metal sphere.

However, Sylvus could feel the immense power contained within.

Parent-Child Teleportation Array: Allows instant teleportation regardless of distance; the further the distance, the more magic crystals consumed, price: ten billion points.

Seeing the third item, Sylvus breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, this wasn't expensive.

If it had been another hundred trillion-point item, he'd have been broke again.

"This array isn't bad. When I reach the Divine Realm, if I want to return, it will only take a moment."

Sylvus smiled, then clicked to buy it.

The items from tonight's system shop were all pretty good.

After storing them away, Sylvus took out the Breakthrough Pill.

"Tonight, I'll break through to the Nine-Star Mage Emperor level, and tomorrow I'll fuse with the divine core to become a Ruler-level power."

Sylvus thought as he took the pill.

The power from the pill quickly fused into his body, and his aura began to surge...
