Gacha Sovereign

486 Timeskip

After hearing about the report, Alex was surprised by the function of his green box. He did not know what the Strength Plateau was, but it should be something amazing.

He could not wait until he came back and luckily, he did not have anything to do at the moment. So, he continued his gruesome training to increase his power for another three months, increasing his power from 6-Star to 8-Star Martial King.

(AN: Are there a lot of timeskip recently?)

This speed was normal for him, considering he usually needed a month to increase his cultivation by a star when he was a Martial Lord or below. And unlike the Wilow Continent, he was at peace here, not having many things to do… he did not need to train his disciple and Evelyn, go to war with kingdoms and sects, and many conspiracies.

All he needed to worry about was to get stronger and clear the trials as well as Shelka. However, Nano was observing Shelka continuously, so he could just sit back and cultivate.

He did not have any senior sisters/brothers or friends in this place, except the Phoenix Queen, who already became his Contracted Beast. As for Ellen, there was not that much interaction between him and her. Besides, Stina would surely solve her problem instead of him.

He also did not need to deal with any conspiracies that targeted his friends or families… or at least that's what he thought.

In the first month, the Naga Race's representatives gave him a little box, saying he needed to open the box before he could challenge the trial.

From him and the system observation, it seemed there was a trick on the box which involved the soul. Just as the system said, it appeared someone put their soul in this box, making it impossible to open unless he erased that soul. The only way to erase that soul was to impart his soul inside and beat that remnant soul.

In any case, he would need to be a Martial Emperor first before he could challenge the trial. Considering he needed to defeat a 10-Star Martial King golden dragon with 400 dragon strength or equal to a normal 4-Star Martial Emperor,?he certainly did not mind breaking through to the Martial Emperor in this world.

According to the information, the strongest influence in the Northern Continent, the first rare influence, only had peak Martial Emperor as their backing. With his UR EXP card and turned his spirit to Martial Monarch, he did not need to be afraid of them even if someone knew about the green box in his possession.

He was wondering what he should do with the other green box. He certainly did not want it to go to waste. He was planning to give it back to Song Yu in case he did not have a use for them. He had thought of giving it to Evelyn or Rose, letting them increase their strength exponentially. Sadly, they were too weak to take the chance since they needed to be a Martial Emperor not above or below.

The only one who had the chance for this was Song Yu, Song Jia, and Alex. Even Putri was not qualified.

He also had opened his Premium Gacha Tickets, albeit he did not get anything good from it except the Summoning Tickets. He used the Summoning Tickets and got Anna's and Leoz's card as well as two spies, Natalie and Nicky. Natalie was a female wolf while Nicky was a flying squirrel.

After leveling them up to Martial King, he sent them to Dragon Continent to check what they were up to.

In the second month, there was no event going on, so Alex cultivated peacefully.

However, it was changed when the human suddenly came to the Phoenix Continent, demanding Alex to go to the Human Capital with a certain decree. Alex paid no heed to that since he was not a part Human in this world. Of course, with Stina's protection, they could not do anything.

There was a time where the humans sent their princes and princesses to meet the Phoenix Queen. Of course, seeing their number, their target was certainly Alex. They thought Alex might fancy one of them and somehow made them his concubine, sister, brother, or whatever as long as they made a relationship with this unknown person. They even sent Lilian, who seemed to be the closest to him, telling her she would become a royalty if she succeeded. Lilian rejected the idea, but could only receive the order because she was too weak.

Sadly, their wish was not fulfilled because Alex locked himself inside his courtyard, not letting anyone get near him. Of course, as his contracted beast, Stina was very supportive of this.

However, the news of her breaking the world limit shook the entire world, making them want to know the method to achieve that.

After speculating through everything happening in these past few months, they realized it was because of Alex's appearance, she managed to break the limit.

The Elven Race even sent his envoy to mend the relationship between him and Shelka. They even told him it was only a misunderstanding, albeit Nano was still reporting all the perverted things she did in her free time.

At the very least, Alex was a bit relieved that she was just a pervert, not a yandere. If she was a yandere, he might need to kill her before she could do something bad to him. After all, her brain was similar to Anya. If Anya was a yandere that would do anything, he could not imagine what would happen. That was why knowing her was a pervert made him feel relieved.

In the past three months, Alex also did not forget to ask Stina to search for a few materials, mostly Alchemy Ingredients. He never needed to use his Rank 5 Pills since it was out of the norm here. Besides, there was not much action in this world.

Because of that, he only wanted to make Strength Spirit Pill and Diamond Soul Pill. Like their name, Strength Spirit Pill was to increase his strength. Unlike his Giant Strength Pill that only gave him 10 dragon strength, this Strength Spirit Pill could give him 100 dragon strength.

Luckily, this world did not know the small blue ball called Pill. If not, he might need to fight a dragon with more than 500 dragon strength. That would be overkill even for him.

As for Diamond Soul Pill, it basically increased the soul strength. He did not wish to learn anything other than that because he could simply buy them as the money coming from these two pills would easily cover his expenses.

Of course, Stina was confused as to why Alex would need herbs like this. Because no one knew the function of Medicinal herbs, they were pretty much untouched.

Because of this, Alex's eyes blinked a few times as money started filling his eyes. He asked Stina to acquire all the herbs they could get in this continent and the other continents. Since it was going to waste, he should acquire it for himself.

Of course, to thank their efforts, Alex was planning to give them the Strength Spirit Pill when he could make it. Thinking about this, Stina agreed without any hesitation since not only would it help Alex, it would also strengthen the race.

The phoenixes were also glad to help him with that and started searching for Rank 6 medicinal herbs all around the world.

Kyle had reached 10-Star while Sherry had become 9-Star Martial King in this process.

After those three months, it was time for Alex to practice his first rank 6 pill. He stumbled across nine medicinal ingredients in front of him while sitting inside the Simulation Array.

He channeled his energy into the array and entered the Simulation World together with the ingredients.

The first item was a Safflower. It looked like a Sunflower but had a rainbow color instead of yellow. Alex poured his fire inside his furnace, warming it up.

After two minutes, he tossed the Safflower inside the warm furnace. Because this was his first time, he did not dare to simultaneously refine all the ingredients since he wanted to know their own characteristics. This was a very important process for every alchemist because sometimes, the practice would be different than theory.

The blazing fire started enveloping the Safflower, extracting the rainbow color. Its color came to a certain liquid which was Alex's target.

He melted the entire flower, leaving a single liquid droplet consisting of seven colors. It looked like oil under the sunlight, creating such wondrous and beautiful colors.

Alex did not know why, but when he refined the ingredients, he seemed to have better control than before. It might be because of his continuous usage of Element in this world, but he was happy with it.

His soul was also helping him quite a bit, suppressing all the energy inside the flower while his fire expelled the impurity.

Without resting, Alex tossed the second ingredients, then third ingredients until the last ingredients, refining them one by one in succession. However, he was surprised by the first engagement with the soul of rank 6 monsters, which also could impart their soul in their core, making it more formidable.

Alex fought hard and defeated so hard because he was not proficient enough to use his soul. It continued for a hundred times until he could defeat the soul in an efficient way.

He looked at the blue pill that brought him so much trouble and destroyed it as he came out of the simulation world.

However, he did not stop there. With his current energy, he could refine a few sets of ingredients in one go. So, he quickly entered the simulation world again but started refining two sets of ingredients at the same time, albeit was defeated again and again.

He stopped at his limit, which was three pills, feeling that he could not do anymore with his current Mental Energy. Besides, he already refined 27 medicinal ingredients at the same time, making him look like a monster.

It took him more than three hundred tries or equal to seven days of training until he got a good grasp of this pill. He was confident in refining three pills at the same time with a 100% success rate and Perfect Purity Quality after this training.

After acquiring that technique, Alex finally started refining the pills in the real world, eating it for himself and increasing his strength by a hundred dragon strength. There were two other pills in his hands as he was planning to give it to Ellen and Stina so they could test the pill was legit.

He stepped outside his room, checking the situation outside before going to his Array Training as well as body training with the Dragon Strengthening Technique.

In front of his room, Anya was talking with Stina, who brought Sherry.
