Chapter 83: Sylvus’ Breakthrough and Preparations for the Journey
Energy Block - Thunder Punishment: Can be consumed three times, equipped with the Sky Hand Cannon. When released, it unleashes a thunder tribulation, capable of inflicting devastating damage to beings of the Mage Ruler level. Price: One hundred billion points.
Sylvus looked at the first item and smiled.
He didn't expect to receive such a powerful weapon.
Even beings at the Mage Ruler level couldn't withstand this attack.
In this world, he could almost be considered invincible with it.
And the best part was that it was relatively cheap.
Only a hundred billion points.
In comparison, a Mage Ruler level being was only worth about thirty billion magic crystals, which was quite a bargain.
Ancient Origin Pill: Grade 8 medicine, exclusive to the host. After consumption, it boosts power. Price: One billion points.
The second item was a regular pill that appeared every time.
At the moment, Sylvus was already at the eighth star level of the Mage Soveriegn.
After consuming this pill, he would be close to breaking through to the Saint Archmage level.
Wings of the Elves: Unknown item, seemingly related to the Elven race. Price: Five hundred billion points.
When Sylvus saw the third item, he frowned.
This item didn't seem to have any use for him.
"Since it's an Elven thing, the Elves should be the ones to pay for it,"
Sylvus thought, and then he went ahead and purchased the first two items.
[System Prompt]: Host has spent one hundred billion points, successfully purchased Energy Block - Thunder Punishment, it has been added to the system space.
[System Prompt]: Host has spent one billion points, successfully purchased Ancient Origin Pill, it has been added to the system space.
This time, there were only three items.
After all, the refresh option he received last time was a one-time deal, and once used, it was gone.
As for the Wings of the Elves, Sylvus wasn't in a hurry to buy them.
He would wait until he visited the Elves.
If it turned out to be useful, he wouldn't be the one paying for it anyway.
"Time to break through the next level. Once I reach the Saint Archmage level, I can head out to visit the Dwarves and Elves."
Sylvus thought, then consumed the Ancient Origin Pill, and a surge of magical power began to flow through his body.
The night passed quietly until the next morning.
Sylvus didn't leave his room.
He told Meylan to open the shop and continue business as usual, while he remained in his room focused on his breakthrough.
After a full night of cultivation, Sylvus had reached the ninth star level of the Mage Soveriegn.
However, breaking through to the Saint Archmage level wasn't that simple; he estimated it would take until the evening to succeed.
Time passed slowly.
Sylvus continued his cultivation into the night.
Meylan , curious about what his master was doing in the room, didn't dare to disturb him.
He thought to himself that perhaps Sylvus was studying some new magical technique.
...
Soon, a powerful wave of magical energy surged from Sylvus' room.
Sylvus smiled, knowing he was about to break through to the Saint Archmage level.
He consumed another pill and concentrated on his breakthrough.
The magic within him continued to strike at the barrier of the Saint Archmage level.
...
Over an hour passed.
With a sudden jolt through his body, Sylvus' aura quickly surged.
In the blink of an eye, he had successfully reached the Saint Archmage level.
"Finally, I've broken through."
Sylvus took a deep breath and smiled.
He had only been in this world for a month.
In that time, he had gone from being an ordinary person to becoming a Saint Archmage.
If word of this got out, no one would believe it.
"A Saint Archmage' control over magic is indeed extraordinary. I can feel that if a mage Soveriegn .were in front of me now, they wouldn't even be able to cast ten spells."
Feeling the power within him, Sylvus lay down on his bed.
After a day and night of constant cultivation, his mind was somewhat exhausted.
And now he planned to head to the Dwarves and Elves the next day.
After a restful sleep, Sylvus woke up early the next morning before the shop even opened.
He called for Meylan .
"Master, is there something you need?" Meylan asked curiously, with a hint of fear.
Was it possible that Sylvus had developed a new magic spell and wanted to test it on him?
"I'll be heading out on a trip soon, and I'm not sure how long I'll be gone. Just keep the shop open and running every day while I'm away."
Sylvus said.
"Don't worry, Master. I'll be here waiting for your return," Meylan replied seriously.
He didn't ask where Sylvus was going.
With his master's power, there was no place he couldn't handle.
"You've also been stuck at your level for some time now. While I'm away, besides running the shop, focus on your cultivation. I know you have money, so you can buy the pills from the shop as needed."
Sylvus said with a smile.
At this point, Sylvus had hundreds of billions of magic crystals.
He no longer cared about the million magic crystals Meylan owed him.
He knew that Meylan had wanted to use the shop's pills for a long time, but had held back, afraid that spending money would lead to him being dismissed.
But now, Sylvus had come to trust Meylan .
Having someone to help run the shop gave him peace of mind.
"Master, are you serious?" Meylan asked, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
"Hurry up and break through to the ninth star of the Mage Emperor. When the time comes, I'll help you cross the tribulation. Otherwise, you're not worthy of being my shopkeeper."
Sylvus nodded.
"Don't worry, Master. I'll work hard," Meylan said with a grin.
What Sylvus meant was that he guaranteed Meylan would become a Mage Ruler, something that was a dream for many across the continent!
After giving a few more instructions, Sylvus headed toward the royal palace.
He wasn't going to say goodbye to Boone but to ask him about the locations of the Dwarves and Elves.
When Boone heard Sylvus had arrived, he was almost too afraid to meet him.
Usually, Sylvus stayed in his shop and rarely ventured out.
But now he had come to the palace.
Perhaps some member of the royal family had offended him.
Nervously, Boone welcomed Sylvus.
But when he learned that Sylvus had only come to ask about the locations of the Dwarves and Elves, he let out a small sigh of relief.
As long as no one had caused trouble.
"Master, both the Dwarves and Elves are located in the east and north of the Eslar continent, quite a distance from here. This map should help you find them."
Boone said as he handed Sylvus a map.
Sylvus nodded.
"I'll be spending a few days with them. While I'm gone, take care of my shop."
Sylvus said.
"Don't worry, Master. Nothing will happen."
Boone promised.
After all, who in the capital didn't know about the potion shop that no one dared to mess with?
Just Sylvus' reputation alone was enough to scare off any troublemakers.
In fact, the shopkeepers in the capital had stopped calling themselves "bosses."
Because whenever anyone mentioned "boss," the first person that came to mind was Sylvus.
And besides, there was a powerful Magus Emperor in the shop as well.
Even if Boone didn't look after it, nothing would happen.
Sylvus nodded, and without saying another word, flew off into the distance.
