Chapter 124: The Return from the Undead World and the Ruler Breakthrough

After leaving the Undead World, Elena and the others didn't leave immediately, as they needed to fully cleanse the entire Undead World of undead.

It took two hours, and Sylvus returned to the holy city with Corvin and Kennan. The two initially wanted to buy some 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, he decided not to disturb him.

"System, claim the task rewards!"

Back in his own room, Sylvus eagerly spoke with a hint of anticipation.

[System Notification: Task rewards have been successfully distributed. Congratulations, host, for obtaining Deity Grade Divinity, Heavenly Gate, and Deity Essence Pill. They have been added to the system space, please check them yourself.]

Sylvus's eyes lit up. He didn't expect the rewards this time to be so generous; 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 Divine Realm.

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

Looking at the three rewards, Sylvus narrowed his eyes. The elixir was self-explanatory—it was to help him break through to the Ruler level. However, the Deity Grade Divinity sounded 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, Divinities are divided into lower, intermediate, advanced, peak, spiritual, and the legendary Ruler levels. Each Divinity comes with inherent divine abilities, and the higher the level, the stronger the abilities.]

"So, what divine abilities does my Deity Grade Divinity possess?" Sylvus asked curiously.

[The host's Deity Grade Divinity does not come with any divine abilities, but it can steal divine abilities from other Divinities, with no limit.]

"What? It 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 having no limit was truly terrifying. Just think about it—others might have only one divine ability, but he could have hundreds or even thousands. If it came to a fight, he could overwhelm opponents with sheer divine power.

"Hahaha, this thing is amazing!" Sylvus laughed aloud. Just getting the Deity Grade Divinity made the task reward more than worth it.

He carefully put away the Divinity and then 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 Divine Realm, is it related to another of my tasks?" Sylvus asked.

He had another task to restore deity power to Aisral. The system had previously mentioned that once he completed this current task, he would know what to do. It seemed that the Heavenly Gate was the key to accomplishing it.

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

Sylvus nodded, looking at the small bronze door in his hand. He decided not to use it just yet. If he opened the passage between the two realms now, it wouldn't matter much to him, but the people of Aisral would suffer. Given Aisral's current strength, they were no match for the Divine Realm.

"I'll wait until I break through to the Ruler level before using it," Sylvus thought, then took out the elixir and began cultivating again.

Time passed slowly, and the following days on the continent were peaceful. Elena and her group had also returned to Aisral, victorious this time.

Not only had they wiped out 90% of the undead, but they had also sealed the entire Undead World. Even if a few of the undead survived, it would take tens of thousands of years for them to recover. By then, Aisral wouldn't be as weak as it was now.

One afternoon, Meylan found Sylvus, his face filled with excitement. Sylvus didn't need to guess what had happened.

"Are you ready?" Sylvus asked Meylan with a smile.

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

"Boss, I'm ready," Meylan said nervously, swallowing. He was about to become a Mage Ruler. Across the entire Aisral, besides Sylvus, there was no other true Mage Ruler. He never imagined that he would be the first.

He remembered two months ago when he had gone to Sylvus's shop in debt, realizing that it must have been fate.

"If you're ready, come upstairs with me," Sylvus said, heading upstairs, and Meylan quickly followed.

"There is no deity power in Aisral, which is why, despite having many nine-star Mage Emperors, no one has broken through to become a Mage Ruler," Sylvus explained as they walked.

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

"Don't worry about that. I have an item that will allow you to break through to the Mage Ruler level. And it won't be long before the deity power of Aisral returns," Sylvus said with a smile.

Hearing this, Meylan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, breaking through to the Mage Ruler level wasn't going to be a problem for him.

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

Meylan nodded and quickly sat down, beginning to meditate. Mana from the surroundings started gathering toward him.

"System, activate the Mage Ruler Soul Stone!"

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

With the system's voice, the Mage Ruler Soul Stone flew out from the system space, along with Elena's Ancestral Stone.

The next second, under Sylvus's watchful gaze, the Ancestral Stone emitted a blue light that directly infused into the Mage Ruler Soul Stone.

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

[System Notification: Mage Ruler Soul Stone activated successfully. 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 shivered, and he felt as though something new had entered him, though he couldn't quite understand what it was.

[System Notification: Mage Ruler Soul Stone successfully fused. Heavenly Lightning Tribulation is descending!]

The next second, a white light burst from Meylan''s body, shooting into the sky. It seemed as if the heavens had sensed something, as massive dark clouds began to gather, and terrifying white lightning churned within them.
