The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 835
All of a sudden, a small object appeared on the table, as if Gage had suddenly conjured it form nowhere.This little object made Felix's eyes brighten up, and he was extremely excited. "This is it!"Gage nodded with a smile. "Yes, it's an alchemy furnace."It really was an alchemy furnace! Felix started breathing heavily at the sight.. "An alchemy furnace is a magic weapon. After dripping your blood on it, it'll recognize you as its master and unfold into a bigger object. Of course, given our hostile relationship, you wouldn't trust me."You can have it recognize you as its master first and then treat me."The alchemy furnace that Felix had wished for appeared just like this. He felt like he was dreaming. He had read and reread the book Gerald had given him to the point of being obsessed.He wanted to try it out as soon as possible. And since Gage had said so, why was Felix still hesitating?He took it and dripped his blood on it. It merged into his body, and when it came out

The herbs Felix needed for alchemic refining weren't only needed in a high quantity but also extremely rare. If Felix used his connections to source them, it would take a long time.In the end, he consulted Silas, who then introduced him to Qualls Pharmaceutical."I hadn't expected you to come here personally, Ms. Qualls. I'm flattered," Felix said.Yasmin's manners were impeccable, and the way she spoke was pleasant. "Dr. Zeller, it's my honor to be of use to a genius doctor like you."Felix nodded and took out a file before handing it over. "All the herbs I need are listed here. You can take a look first, Ms. Qualls. If you have any issues, you can tell me and we'll work out the kinks together."Yasmin nodded. "Alright, please wait a minute." Half an hour passed before Yasmin finally finished reading them all."Most of the herbs are doable. We have enough reserves to supply you. There are only a dozen of extremely rare ones, but I can also guarantee the delivery within a mont

Felix looked at Xena speechlessly for a moment. Why was she becoming more and more irrational? Why didn't she tell him earlier if she didn't want him to go?Why did she tell him at this moment?"The headquarters had already issued an order. Why are you telling me to back out now?" he questioned.Xena also knew it was a bit too late to say anything, but she couldn't help herself. "Fine, then let's get back to the point. Three months ago, something strange happened in Seapoint. The residents of the town began sleeping during the day and only waking at night."Their sleep cycles were reversed? Felix clicked his tongue inwardly. This was truly the first time he had heard of such a thing."Why does it sound like they're vampires? But isn't that a fictional thing?" Felix remarked.Xena glared at Felix, signaling for him to take this more seriously. She continued, "The point is, the people in town are completely normal. There's nothing strange besides their sleep cycles. "We've sent p

"Do you think a person's soul can be disguised?" Felix asked. The reason he asked was because of the situation at Seapoint.Two people who appeared physically dead were actually alive, which meant that this should be related to their souls. Gerald had once said that souls were the most complicated things.He had advised Felix not to touch this field; otherwise, he would have driven himself crazy. However, what about the strange events in Seapoint? What if they were related to souls?The Shadow Mask couldn't change the souls, and Billy had deep knowledge of this area, so it wouldn't hurt to ask him."Interesting, why are you asking this?" Billy countered.However, Felix didn't want to expose more of the mission's details, and he remained silent.At that, Billy simply replied, "Of course, it can be disguised. Do you have anything else to ask?"Felix rubbed his nose, feeling a little guilty. Although he owed Billy a favor, he still felt like he was taking advantage of Billy."Do y

At Damien's door stood dozens of people. They were all expressionless, and they all stared at Felix blankly. It was super creepy."You… What do you want?" Felix greeted them awkwardly. His nervousness showed in his eyes.However, no one answered him. They all stood still, staring at him intently.Fortunately, there were sounds of footsteps, and the crowd immediately made way. An old man with a cane and a goatee slowly approached.Felix knew that this old man was well known in Seapoint. He was labeled the Great Teacher. With the headquarters' investigations, it was easy to find the background of Damien's life. In fact, many people worked outside of Seapoint. However, they chose Damien because he had no relatives left. After his grandmother, who depended on him, passed away, he left Seapoint to work. Tragically, Damien himself passed away in a car accident. What was left of him had no one to remember him by—except for some neighbors and some friends."Mr. Docker," Felix took t

Felix smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry, but my phone has no signal. I promise to come and pay you back when it's back."When he came out of the supermarket, there were a few more people around Lena. They took the initiative to help Felix hold his bags.The enthusiasm, at least in their eyes, seemed genuine. Honestly, in today's society, it was a miracle that neighbors would even help each other, especially since Damien was a useless nobody.When they got home, Lena and a few of the townsfolk cleaned the house again without Felix asking. Soon, the house looked brand new. After a while, someone came over with a lot of food, cigarettes, alcohol, and many other necessities."This is too much!" Felix said, a little embarrassed.Lena smiled. "Damien, our town has changed dramatically now. To tell you the truth, as long as you don't leave town from now on, you don't have to spend a single penny on your future expenses."Felix pretended to be ecstatic. "Is that true? Aunt Lena, that's

The six real Dragonspines in Felix's body trembled, and his expression changed wildly. This was the first time this was happening, and he was a little scared. He quickly activated Dragons Destroyer, but the trembling didn't stop."What's going on?" Despite the fact that the Dragonspines were trembling within him, his body felt completely normal. After trying various skills, nothing changed, and Felix could only head outside.If he continued like this, he would have to terminate the mission—he didn't want to risk his life. If he couldn't solve it himself, he could only consult Gerald. However, there wasn't a signal in town. The only way he could contact Gerald was to leave Seapoint. But Felix didn't expect that as soon as he left the house, the Dragonspines stopped trembling, as if it were all an illusion.He had a thought. To verify it, he went back inside the house. After a few minutes, the Dragonspines started trembling again."Was there something wrong with the house?"Feli
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 842
During the day, Felix wandered around the town alone and saw several trucks entering. However, he didn't head over to talk. He only watched from a distance.Someone from the headquarters had taken the note he had hidden the night before. Felix couldn't find anything strange during the whole process.…In a city over 31 miles away from Seapoint, Xena was worried after reading the note brought back by the driver.Felix had snuck in, but why was everything getting weirder? Xena couldn't help much now. All she could do was contact Seven and tell him what Felix had said in the letter. "My Dragonspines are trembling, but I don't know why. I cannot contact anyone, too."…Another night passed, and Felix grew more irritable. As long as he was in the house, the Dragonspines didn't stop trembling. Now, he could only hope that his fellow apprentices could find a way to bring him Gerald's explanation.Around 10:00 am, the dogs in his area started barking. Felix went outside and saw a co

The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1458
If the government was planning to just attack Hall of Souls with missiles, they must have been seriously pissed off this time.But it made sense. After all, countless people had risked their lives fighting Malevolent Phantoms, while Hall of Souls not only failed to resist but actually conspired with them. That was truly despicable. Felix asked, "But how are you sure what the Black Soul Scout said is true? Even with soul memory extraction, wouldn't you need to verify it?"Xena answered, "Of course. Everyone's worried about hurting innocent people. Our national guardian has already checked a few locations personally. He has confirmed they're definitely Hall of Souls laboratories or bases." The guardian? Felix frowned. "Isn't that overkill? Why not just let the guardian eliminate them all directly?" Xena's voice turned colder. "How could that possibly be as intimidating as missiles? We haven't located the leader of Hall of Souls, Scarlet Lord. That's why we need something that sen

Donna laughed with a teasing look on her face. "What? You only managed to kill one S-tier Malevolent Phantom because you had perfect timing and conditions. Yet, you're acting so confident now." Since Donna was a Malevolent Phantom herself, Felix had to be careful. Felix had no problem with Donna knowing he was at Superior Soul Realm before. But now that he'd jumped up to Ethercore Realm, he had to keep quiet about it since that was something that required soul enhancement. "I know my limits. Or are you saying you don't know the answer, either?" Donna held up one finger before answering, "You're currently at Superior Soul Realm. You'll have to reach Ethercore Realm to be able to fight against an S-tier Malevolent Phantom." Felix was genuinely surprised to hear that, but he played it cool. "Really? Looks like I won't have to run from S-tier Malevolent Phantoms much longer." As expected, Donna snickered and replied coldly, "It might seem like just one level away, but don't you
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1456
Though the attack seemed coordinated, everything happened incredibly fast. Felix and Benjamin worked together perfectly, so it took them just over ten seconds to finish off Malachar. Felix felt lucky. Without Francis' soul fragment and Benjamin's help, he would never have killed an S-tier Malevolent Phantom like Malachar. That was a close one. "Benjamin, we got him." Hearing Felix's voice, Benjamin, who had been fighting off exhaustion, smiled before passing out. Just then, the power rebound from the Mystical Explosive Orb surged through him. Felix realized that while Francis' soul fragment was gone, he had sacrificed the valuable Scholar's Arsenal as well. But absorbing the power rebound from an S-tier Malevolent Phantom's soul essence was a pretty sweet deal anyway. As he absorbed it, Felix was completely blown away—though he already knew how powerful S-tier Malevolent Phantoms were. The one he'd run into at Laurel Resort had been falling apart at its soul core, yet its p

Though things had not gone exactly as planned, Felix hadn't grown this far on luck alone. He activated Lone Paragon, which enhanced his soul aspects by unleashing a fourfold boost in combat power. Lumen instantly shot toward Malachar. After exposing his true form, Malachar now had six legs and two antennas on his forehead, though otherwise he didn't look too different."You stupid brat, I can't believe you actually knew I wouldn't spare you!" Malachar grinned like a madman. Having devoured such a powerful soul, he was naturally in high spirits. With a casual wave of his hand, Lumen was knocked back as if hit by a heavy blow, returning instantly to Felix's side. "Benjamin!" This was no time for talk. They needed to take Malachar down before he fully digested Francis' soul fragment. "Having help won't save you. You've underestimated the power of an S-tier Malevolent Phantom." Benjamin had been preparing all along. Right then, he shot his right hand forward in a pointing gest

As the cracks on the stone sphere grew wider, Felix did not waste another second. He activated Soulweave and directed it to the Scholar's Arsenal inside him. Though Felix wasn't their actual owner, his soul consciousness existed within the Scholar's Arsenal. So when he performed the Soulweave technique from the Phaeron Codex, the four soul-bound weapons of the Scholar's Arsenal recognized Felix as their master. A visible vortex of soul energy formed instantly, pulling in the Scholar's Arsenal. Felix felt the Scholar's Arsenal trying to resist. Too bad for them—the Soulweave was already active in Felix's soul. It left them no room for rebellion as they were sucked straight into the vortex. He thought, "Damn it! I can't believe that it drains half of my soul energy." This technique was too costly, so there was no way he'd use it during battle in the future. The Soulweave process varied based on the quality of the soul-bound weapons—minimum three days, maximum nine. Now, he co
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1453
When Felix heard that Malachar had arrived, he tensed up. This was his first time being hunted by an S-tier Malevolent Phantom, and instead of fear, he felt incredibly excited. He sprang into action, vanishing into the barren mountain after a few quick jumps. Malachar was moving fast, so there was no time to waste. Arriving at a spot in the valley, Felix was surprised to see dozens of unmarked graves there. They were just small mounds of earth arranged neatly without headstones. What drew his attention was a large oval tomb in the center that was clearly made of stone. Even without a marker, the green stones alone were enough to show it was something special. The call from the Scholar's Arsenal was coming from inside. As Felix approached, a rumbling sound echoed as the oval stone structure split open down the middle. It revealed a pitch-black entrance leading underground. This soul fragment was hidden so carefully. It might actually remain undiscovered for thousands or even t
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1452
Donna nodded. Honestly, she herself felt tempted. Devouring such a soul would bring immeasurable growth, so no S-tier Malevolent Phantom could possibly pass up such an opportunity. Donna said, "But Felix, remember this. If that so-called soul fragment wins, it's your problem to deal with. But if Malachar wins, you must finish it off within one minute! "We S-tier Malevolent Phantoms can fully absorb a soul within a minute. You should know exactly how much stronger Malachar would become afterward." Felix gave a cold laugh, not bothering to respond. The moment the battle was decided, Malachar would attack relentlessly in the very next second—Felix would have less than one minute to react. Regardless of who won or lost, this was definitely going to happen no matter what. "By the way, can the Mystical Explosive Orb only capture a Malevolent Phantom's soul essence?" Donna smiled bitterly. "That's how the orb was designed. Thanks for your concern. I know what you're thinking. If the
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1451
Throughout Dragonia's history, there had been countless super geniuses whose existence was simply beyond description. What made the Malevolent Phantoms so special? Just because someone was from out of town didn't mean they know better, right? Felix had no idea why he felt so confident about his current plan. "Let's give it a try first." Clearly, no matter how much he tried to convince Donna, she still believed S-tier Malevolent Phantoms were stronger. She was so confident of this because she knew too well what Malevolent Phantoms were like. Before they began, Donna warned him again, "Are you sure he can handle the pressure when I unleash all my soul energy? One wrong move, and his soul will completely collapse." Felix was about to respond, but Benjamin had already answered, "It's fine. Go ahead. If I die from this, then it's what fate intended." Seeing the new look on Benjamin's face, Felix couldn't help but gulp. He felt as if an army of thousands was charging toward him, an
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1450
Similarly, after reaching Superior Soul Realm, Felix could use another secret technique from the Phaeron Codex called the Soulweave technique. It wasn't an attack. It resembled something like the Spirit Eye, which was reserved only for support.The Soulweave technique was to merge different soul-bound weapons and turn them into a different weapon. There was a high chance the new soul-bound weapons would surpass the original weapon by at least a level. Of course, there was also the probability of failure and getting nothing from it. The chance of success or failure was never predictable. It was all up to fate.Back when Felix infiltrated Rebirth Sect, he was excited. However, after seeing what the technique did, he almost burst a blood vessel from how frustrated he was. Soul-bound weapons only recognized their owner, let alone anything else.If the owner didn't take the bound away, the weapon would also disappear after its owner's death. So, didn't that mean Felix's new technique w
