Chapter 119: The Deity Breakthrough and the Soul Stone

After leaving the Undead World, Elena and the others didn't leave right away, as they wanted to completely eradicate the undead of the entire Undead World.

It took two hours, and Sylvus returned to the holy city with Corvin and Kennan. Originally, the two wanted to buy elixirs, but unfortunately, Sylvus's shop was already closed.

"I thought it would take some time, but we got back in just half a day." Sylvus smiled and returned to his shop, finding Meylan cultivating in his room, so he didn't disturb him.

"System, claim the quest rewards!"

Returning to his room, Sylvus eagerly spoke, full of anticipation.

[System Notification: Quest rewards have been successfully distributed. Congratulations, host, for obtaining the Deity Grade Divinity, Heavenly Gate, and Deity Essence Pill. The items have been stored in the system space. Please check them yourself.]

Sylvus's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected the rewards to be so generous this time—there was even a Divinity.

Deity Grade Divinity: After refining, grants the user the ability to steal divine abilities.

Heavenly Gate: A portal to connect with the Deity Realm.

Deity Essence Pill: To be consumed at the level of a nine-star Mage Emperor, in conjunction with the Divinity, to break through to the deity level.

Looking at the three rewards, Sylvus narrowed his eyes. The elixir needed no explanation—it was something that would help him break through to the deity level. However, the Deity Grade Divinity sounded very impressive, but the description seemed a bit too simple.

"System, what is the difference between a Deity Grade Divinity and an ordinary Divinity?" Sylvus couldn't help but ask.

[Host, Divinity is categorized into lower, intermediate, advanced, peak, spiritual, and the legendary deity levels. Each Divinity comes with inherent divine abilities. The higher the level of the Divinity, the stronger the inherent abilities.]

"Then what divine ability does my Deity Grade Divinity possess?" Sylvus asked curiously.

[The host's Deity Grade Divinity doesn't have an inherent divine ability but can steal divine abilities from others' Divinities without any limit.]

"What? I can steal others' divine abilities, and there's no limit?" Sylvus's face showed a surprised expression.

Stealing divine abilities from others was already impressive, but to have no limit? That was extremely terrifying.

Think about it—others have only one divine ability, but he could have hundreds or even thousands. If it came to a fight, he could overwhelm his opponents with sheer divine abilities.

"Hahaha, this thing is great!" Sylvus laughed loudly. Just obtaining the Deity Grade Divinity was enough to justify the quest reward.

Carefully putting away the Divinity, Sylvus looked at the Heavenly Gate. It was only the size of a palm and contained spatial fluctuations.

"System, this Heavenly Gate can connect to the Deity Realm, so it should be related to my other quest, right?" Sylvus asked.

He still had a quest to restore deity power to Aisral. The system had mentioned that once he completed his current quest, he would know what to do. The only thing in front of him that could help seemed to be the Heavenly Gate.

[System Notification: After using the Heavenly Gate, the host can connect to the Deity Realm. Once the passage between the two realms is opened, deity power from the Deity Realm will flood into Aisral, enhancing the rules of the world.]

Sylvus nodded, looking at the small bronze door in his hand, and decided not to use it for now. If he opened the passage between the two realms now, it wouldn't matter much to him, but it would be disastrous for the people of Aisral. Given Aisral's current strength, they wouldn't be able to withstand the Deity Realm. m|vle mp _yr novel source

"I'll wait until I reach the Ruler level before using it," Sylvus thought, then took out the elixir and continued his cultivation.

Time passed slowly, and the continent remained peaceful in the following days. Elena and her party had returned to Aisral, and they were victorious this time.

Not only had they eradicated ninety percent of the undead, but the entire Undead World had also been sealed. Even the few undead who had survived wouldn't be able to recover for tens of thousands of years. By then, Aisral wouldn't be as weak as it was now.

One afternoon, Meylan came to Sylvus, his face full of excitement. Sylvus didn't need to guess what had happened.

"Ready?" Sylvus asked with a smile.

Meylan had finally reached the level of a nine-star Mage Emperor and was now ready to break through to the level of a Mage Ruler.

"Boss, I'm ready," Meylan said, swallowing nervously. He was about to break through to the level of a Mage Ruler. Across Aisral, besides the strongest—Sylvus—there was not a single true Mage Ruler.

He had never thought he'd be the first Mage Ruler. Thinking back to two months ago when he came to Sylvus's shop, deeply in debt, he realized it must have been fate.

"If you're ready, follow me upstairs," Sylvus said, heading up, and Meylan hurriedly followed.

"There's no deity power in Aisral, which is why there are many nine-star Mage Emperors here but no Mage Rulers," Sylvus said as they walked.

"Uh... Boss, what should we do then? If there's no deity power, doesn't that mean I..."

"No need to worry about that—I have an item that will allow you to break through to the level of a Mage Ruler. And soon, deity power will return to Aisral," Sylvus said with a smile.

Hearing this, Meylan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he wouldn't have a problem breaking through to the level of a Mage Ruler.

"Sit down and meditate. Leave the rest to me," Sylvus said once they reached the rooftop.

Meylan nodded and quickly sat down, starting to meditate, while the surrounding mana gathered around him.

"System, activate the Mage Ruler Soul Stone!"

[System Notification: Activating Mage Ruler Soul Stone...]

As the system's voice fell, the Mage Ruler Soul Stone emerged from the system space, accompanied by Elena's Ancestral Stone.

In the next second, under Sylvus's gaze, the Ancestral Stone emitted a green light that directly entered the Mage Ruler Soul Stone.

The Soul Stone trembled for a few seconds before emitting a white light.

[System Notification: Mage Ruler Soul Stone activation successful. Please select the target... Selection successful. Beginning fusion...]

The system's voice echoed, and the Soul Stone slowly floated above Meylan's head, eventually merging into his forehead. Meylan 's body trembled, and he felt as if something had been added inside him, though he couldn't quite tell what.

[System Notification: Mage Ruler Soul Stone fusion successful. Heavenly Lightning Tribulation descending!]

The next moment, Meylan emitted a beam of white light that shot up towards the sky, as if the world had sensed something. Massive dark clouds gathered, and terrifying white lightning churned within them.
