Rebirth : The Alchemist's Path

After opening the system, Sylvus discovered that the system store had turned gray.

It was temporarily unavailable, and the system itself was also in the process of updating.

"At least the system space is still usable, so I don't have to close the shop," Sylvus thought to himself.

Only the system store function was disabled.

To Sylvus, this didn't have much of an impact.

Moreover, the system mentioned that there would be compensation once the update was complete, which Sylvus believed would be worthwhile.

"There's nothing else to do for now, just wait for Ronald to bring the main cannon, and then I can head to the Divine Realm."

Originally, Sylvus wanted to continue cultivating.

However, the elixirs in the shop could no longer satisfy his cultivation needs; consuming them would be useless.

He expected that the system update would also enhance the level of elixirs available.

The next two days passed by leisurely for Sylvus.

On the third day, Ronald finally delivered the main cannon.

"Boss, it took a bit longer, but we've fully tested it, and this Titan Cannon is definitely problem-free," Ronald said with a smile.

Titan Cannon?

Hearing this name, Sylvus gave Ronald a speechless look.

This guy actually named the cannon after his own race.

However, it showed just how satisfied Ronald was with this cannon.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have used his race's name.

Sylvus then looked at the Titan Cannon, which was a full thirty meters long.

The entire body was black, adorned with various crystals, and its caliber reached one meter.

"Boss, this Titan Cannon is made from the best materials on the Eslar Continent, and we've also embedded rune crystals on it, doubling its power," Ronald said with a smile.

"Double the power?"

Sylvus's eyes lit up. Originally, his magical cannonball was already extremely powerful.

With twice the power, it could even take down a True Deity if encountered.

"Not bad, not bad. You all did well," Sylvus nodded in satisfaction.

"Boss, although we managed to forge the Titan Cannon, we're short on materials for the remaining parts, and many of the required materials can't be found on the Eslar Continent," Ronald said, looking troubled.

The best materials on the entire Eslar Continent could only reach the ninth grade at most.

Beyond that, there was nothing, as the continent lacked divine power, which meant no Deity-level Materials could be produced.

"This is indeed an issue, but you all continue crafting; I'll find a way to get the rest of the materials," Sylvus nodded.

He didn't make things difficult for Ronald, since what he said was true.

Besides, Sylvus was planning to go to the Divine Realm this time, with one of his goals being to find enough materials.

Seeing that Sylvus wasn't blaming him, Ronald breathed a sigh of relief.

He had feared Sylvus would be unreasonable, leaving him with no solution.

Sylvus took the Titan Cannon and then looked at Ronald.

"Go notify Boone and Elena to come to my shop tonight; there are some matters I need to discuss with you."

"No problem, boss."

Though curious about what it was, Ronald didn't ask further.

After all, Sylvus would eventually tell them.

The day passed quickly.

At night, Ronald, Boone, and Elena gathered on the rooftop terrace of the shop.

"Boss, what did you call us for?"

Boone, along with the others, looked at Sylvus curiously.

"You must be curious about what I said earlier, about divine power soon coming to the Eslar Continent?"

Sylvus looked at the three of them and said.

Their eyes lit up; indeed, it was about this matter.

They nodded eagerly.

Divine power was a significant matter, and they were certainly interested.

"Tomorrow, I will open the passage between the Eslar Continent and the Divine Realm. Once the two worlds are connected, divine power from the Divine Realm will also come to Eslar," Sylvus continued.

"What? Boss, you're going to open a passage to the Divine Realm? If powerful beings from the Divine Realm come through, won't we..."

Upon hearing this, the three of them frowned deeply, especially Elena.

They were from the Angel Race, and if beings from the Divine Realm found them, they certainly wouldn't be spared.

"No worries. With the rules of this world's heaven and earth, the strongest who can enter would be at the Mage Ruler level, but there are no Mage Rulers in the Divine Realm," Sylvus smiled.

In the Divine Realm, even the weakest were lower Deitys, far stronger than Mage Rulers.

Previously, Grey was an upper Deity, and he could only enter the Eslar Continent because Sylvus had summoned him.

Furthermore, he had landed within Sylvus's shop, where the world's rules meant nothing.

Sylvus himself was the rule, which was why the Eslar Continent hadn't been affected.

However, if powerful beings from the Divine Realm forcibly tried to enter, they would be met with backlash from the world's rules.

Even Deitys wouldn't dare defy the heavens.

"I called you here today to let you know that once the Eslar Continent connects with the Divine Realm, the rules of this world will also gradually be strengthened under the influence of the Divine Realm.

During this period, it's also the best time for you to cultivate. If you don't want to be slaughtered by the powerful beings of the Divine Realm, then become stronger," Sylvus said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Boone and the others fell silent.

Though they didn't want to admit it, Sylvus was right—they needed to become stronger.

Besides, they didn't want to be confined to the Eslar Continent forever.

Now that they had the opportunity, they naturally wanted to see the Divine Realm.

"After opening the passage tomorrow, I will be heading to the Divine Realm for a few days. Don't worry about any powerful beings coming through during this time, though the continent will undoubtedly undergo some changes—no need to be overly alarmed," Sylvus continued.

The three nodded.

Although they were curious about Sylvus's reason for going to the Divine Realm, it wasn't their place to ask.

After that, Sylvus gave them some detailed instructions before they left.

"Boss, are you really going to the Divine Realm? What about our shop...?"

After they left, Meylan looked at Sylvus and asked.

"The shop will still be here; you just take good care of it. I'm going to the Divine Realm to find some things," Sylvus said with a smile.

Meylan nodded, though he had a feeling that someone was about to be in trouble.

Early the next morning, Sylvus got up and went to the rooftop, taking out the Heavenly Gate.

"..."

With a thought, the palm-sized Heavenly Gate suddenly expanded.

It eventually became a giant bronze gate three meters high, floating in the sky.

"Open!"

"..."

As Sylvus activated it, the giant gate slowly opened.

However, upon seeing the scene behind the door, Sylvus couldn't help but be stunned.

At the same time, the system's voice followed.
