The onlooking disciples could only smile wryly, wishing that they were in Severin's shoes. It was the peak masters' offers that startled them the most. While the disciples were still grappling with the shock of finding out what happened, the nine peak masters wrestled for Severin's coveted favor. After all, his rise to seventh-grade alchemist had sent shockwaves throughout the sect.Daniella, the Sixth Mountain's peak master and a renowned alchemist, had spent decades trying to go from sixth-grade high-rank to seventh-grade. Severin, however, achieved it in just over half a year!His prodigious talent more than deserved the attention of all the peak masters, and his youth was hinted at the potential for him to reach even greater heights, perhaps even becoming an eighth-grade alchemist in the future. Such an person would command the respect of even royal paragons, for the benefits to be gained from an eight-grade alchemist was simply too great. Thus, everyone valued the achievements h
All nine peak masters were left with a bitter taste in their mouths. While it was initially supposed to be only nine of them vying for Severin's allegiance, a spanner was thrown in the works when Oskar—the sect leader—intervened.His offer was not to appoint him as just an ordinary elder, but the elder of the Alchemy Chamber whose status rivaled their own! Severin had become not just the youngest seventh-grade alchemist in Grandiuno Sect's history, but also the youngest elder in the Alchemy Chamber!At that point, Myles, Daniella, and the others were left with no other choice than to offer their congratulations. "Congratulations on becoming the Alchemy Chamber's elder, Severin!"As Severin gazed at Oskar's smile and listened to the peak masters' congratulatory remarks, he took a deep breath and gently accepted the token. He surmised that he was probably the first disciple in the Grandiuno Sect's history to become the Alchemy Chamber's elder.He suppressed his excitement and gesture
Everyone was in wide-eyed shock, but they soon erupted in a chorus of congratulatory wishes when they saw Severin look over. One after another, they offered him their congratulations.Severin acknowledged them with a nod and turned to reenter Pearl Light Isle. With his figure out of sight, a flurry of exclamations began to resonate among the disciples."This has to be a first for our sect!""He's the youngest seventh-grade alchemist in history, and the youngest elder of the Alchemy Chamber!""Is this what it's like to be a true genius? He joined the sect less than a year ago, and he's already making such big strides in cultivation and alchemy! If I had half his talent, I'd wake up with a smile every morning.""Don't bother making comparisons. He could kill a level nine supreme saint like Uzair while still a level seven supreme saint. Are you saying that you can take down a level five supreme saint even though you're only level three?""How is he so ridiculously talented when he e
When night came, burst of laughter and merriment echoed throughout the main courtyard at Peal Light Isle. Severin, his wives, along with Wuhlricht and the group of elders gathered around a crackling bonfire. They had plenty of barbequed meat to gorge themselves on, and spiritual wine to complement the meal.Diane was dressed in a snow-white gown that hugged her graceful curves. The skin on her face glowed like flawless porcelain even without makeup, and a hairpin adorned her black hair which she did in a sleek bun. Her crystal earrings shimmered due the glow of the bonfire, and she resembled an angel stepping out of a divine painting.When she took a bite of the barbeque meat, the juices and strong spiritual energy ignited her tastebuds. She nodded in excitement as she said, "Mmmm! Severin's barbequed meats are still as delicious as ever!"Gilda agreed. "Yeah, I haven't had Severin's signature barbecued meat in ages."A light blue cape draped over her gold-embroidered shirt that ac
"Sofia's here too?" Severin's eyes lit up as he chuckled. "Hehe. That's even better!"At the end of his sentence, he unleashed a surge of spiritual energy and stopped Sheila from pushing him outside of the room. After Sheila was trapped in Severin's embrace, her face turned red when she sensed Severin's robust energy.When Severin carried her into the room and secured the door with a defensive formation, she rolled her eyes and cursed softly at him, "You're... you're such a rascal."Her shyness turned him on even more, and he carried her straight to the bathroom. Sofia was startled when they barged in suddenly, and she jumped up like a startled rabbit. "Sofia, Severin... what are you doing here..."Sheila tried to explain. "He… this rascal here just came in..."Before long, the bathroom echoed with muffled moans that peppered the night's still silence.Dawn came, and the sun rose above the horizon and pierced through the window onto Severin's face. He was lying in between Sheila
Inside the training room, Severin's body was clothed in a golden radiance sheen as he sat cross-legged on the ground. Vast amounts of surrounding spiritual energy swirled around him, forming a golden figure. The scripture of philosophy's power emanated from him, and his aura was as majestic as a towering mountain.As he continued his training, the vortex of spiritual energy above Pearl Light Isle whipped up a storm. When his wives and Wuhlricht's group laid eyes on that, they knew that the gap between them and Severin would widen even more.Felipe stood in the middle of the courtyard while observing the vortex with a bittersweet smile. "Looks like his training is causing quite a stir again. I believe his cultivation would have taken another significant leap when he emerges from seclusion."He was well aware of Severin's astonishing talent for attainment. The ability to make breakthroughs so naturally was more than cause for celebration.Wuhlricht chuckled and shook his head. "I wou
Following the breakthroughs, the sky above the island swirled with the vibrant energy of a level three supreme saint that filled the area with a kaleidoscope of colors. Inside the training room, Severin—who was fully immersed in the The Book of True Void Enlightenment—halted his training when he sensed the fluctuations in aura outside.Seeing as Samuel and others had reached level two, a mixture of surprise and delight filled him. What surprised him most was Samuel was the first to make a breakthrough. Since the girls had slightly higher attainment then him, and since he and Wuhlricht had the same attainment, then it should have been Wuhlricht who made the breakthrough first. Unexpectedly, it was the Samuel who paved the way.A quick glance across the island revealed that Wuhlricht, Diane, and others were close to their breakthroughs as well. Severin nodded in satisfaction and returned his focus to The Book of True Void Enlightenment.Meanwhile, inside Diane's room, her eyes were ti
Severin was enveloped by a swirling torrent of spiritual energy inside the room. He was oblivious to the envy brewing among the sect disciples. His divine senses extended toward those who had achieved breakthroughs and he was incredibly pleased with what he saw.'I didn't think everyone would get a breakthrough at the same time!' he thought with a hint of surprise. He had considered helping out Felipe and others after reaching paragonhood, but it seemed that they were progressing smoothly without needing his help.He withdrew his gaze and thought to himself with resolve, 'Even Felipe and others have made a breakthrough. I can't lag behind them! I need to continue reading The Book of True Void Enlightenment, condense the power of heaven and earth, and begin tempering my soul!"Driven by his decision, Severin calmed himself down and used his hands to form a continuous succession of intricate seals. Spiraling wisps of spiritual energy entered and existed his body as he inhaled and exha
