Chapter 866 Awakened
866 Awakened
The Pontiff sighed as he recalled the three Paragons who had once walked in the Human Realm. According to the Goddess of Concealment, these Paragons were the Divine Extractor, Chaos Alchemist, and the Bloodsoulcaster.
The Divine Extractor left the Creation Ring, the Chaos Alchemist left the Temporal Timepiece, and the Bloodsoulcaster left the Stormbringer Sword.
The Divine Extractor was most likely the Shadow Immortal, according to the goddess. Apparently, the Demon Lord, the Death God, and even the Time Manipulator's reason for entering this realm was because of Shadow Immortal, who had the talent of the Paragon.
Thankfully, the power of their goddess was able to hide the Chaos Alchemist's White Flame until its next vessel was ready.
Soon, the Pontiff asked the Priestess to bring Miya to a well-protected chamber where no one could disturb her.
After everything was arranged, the Pontiff heaved a sigh of relief.
"I didn't expect that Miya would succeed in one try. I guess she's really fated to this inheritance, huh…" The Pontiff muttered as he recalled Miya's figure.
Pale white skin, white hair, and white flame around her body.
It was indeed a magnificent sight.
Now that Miya has inherited the flame, she must be absorbing the full inheritance of the Chaos Alchemist at this point while she was asleep.
He knew that Miya fell unconscious, not because she was tired but because she was still receiving the inheritance since the white Soul Flame was just the start of it.

Meanwhile, in the depths of her consciousness, Miya found herself in a vast, ethereal landscape.
The sky was unnatural as it was a chaotic mix of colors, and the ground beneath her feet shined with an otherworldly glow.
'What's going on? Where am I?' Miya thought as she couldn't recall how she had arrived in this place.
Then, she immediately noticed another being's presence that had suddenly appeared in front of her!
"Mhmm?"
Before her stood a towering figure, cloaked in robes that seemed to be made of black arcane threads.
"Welcome, Maya," the figure spoke.
Realizing that this being knew her name, she immediately felt nervous.
"Think of me as the Spirit of the Chaos Alchemist, and you are here to receive my legacy."
Miya felt a surge of awe as she immediately recalled the Chaos Alchemist's legend that she had only learned in the Church of the Lord of the Secrets…
She knew that this figure must be related to the Fire Infusion Ritual she had completed!
She didn't think for long and immediately replied.
"I am ready," she declared.
With this affirmation, the Chaos Alchemist extended a hand, and a torrent of knowledge and power flowed into Maya.
It was sudden but Maya was elated as she absorbed everything.
She saw visions of ancient alchemical formulas, complex transmutations, and potent elixirs. Her mind expanded, absorbing the secrets of the Chaos Alchemist's craft.
Furthermore, the method of crafting was quite different from the Alchemy that she had read in the book and the dark alchemy of the Dark Arts Faction!
As the transfer of knowledge started slowing down, she heard the voice of the Spirit once again.
"You will wield the power of chaos," the figure continued.
"With this flame, you can transmute any substance, create potions of unparalleled potency, and manipulate the very fabric of reality. But remember, this power is not invincible… Use it wisely."
As the knowledge continued to pour into her, Miya felt her body changing.
Her senses sharpened, and she could feel the flow of energy around her.
Although the knowledge was just imbued in her, she already understood the full capabilities of her white flame and how to harness her power.
Whoosh~ n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Suddenly, the white flame within her grew stronger… She could feel that a stronger source of energy was entering her body as the Spirit was slowly dissipating…
'This… Divinity?!' Maya's eyes widened as she realized the power that was emanating from her body. Divinity was only something that could obtained by Half-Immortals or other Celestial Beings.
She didn't expect that she would also obtain Divinity at such a young age!
"Did I become Immortal?" She asked herself.
However, there was no one to answer her question as the Spirit of the Chaos Alchemist removed his hands from her.
"You have obtained the Alchemist Heart… You are now the Chaos Alchemist," the Spirit said while slowly dissipating. His voice was also filled with satisfaction, as if passing this legacy on to her was the Spirit's greatest accomplishment.
"Go forth and fulfill your destiny."
With those words, the Spirit finally disappeared as Maya's vision faded…
"Ahhh…" Miya then woke up in the chamber.
She felt a surge of energy coursing through her veins, and she knew that she had truly inherited the legacy of the Chaos Alchemist.
She was no longer just an Arcanist; she was a master of alchemy, capable of feats that others could only dream of!
Miya then stood up, as she was excited to put her knowledge to the test. She wanted to start applying her knowledge and see if all of it was real and she was not dreaming!
As she left the chamber, the Priestess who had carried her there bowed deeply. She has been standing guard in this place ever since she was transferred here.
"Congratulations, High Priest Miya. You have inherited the legacy of the Chaos Alchemist. The Pontiff awaits your report."
Miya nodded, a confident smile on her lips. "Thank you. Right, how long has it been since I completed the ritual?" She asked.
The Priestess then smiled and answered. "It's been 15 days…"
"Ahh…" Miya was shocked as soon as she confirmed that the Priestess wasn't joking. Now, instead of meeting the high priest, she returned to her room, cleaned herself, and changed her clothes!
***
After some time, Miya's heart raced with excitement as she made her way to the Pontiff's chamber.
The knowledge she had gained from the Chaos Alchemist was vast and powerful, and she was eager to put it to use. She had a specific creation in mind, something that would demonstrate her newfound abilities and serve the Church well.
As she entered the chamber, the Pontiff looked up from his desk, his glowing eyes meeting hers.
"Miya, I see you have awakened. How do you feel?"
"Stronger than ever, Pontiff," Miya replied…
"I have inherited the legacy of the Chaos Alchemist, and I am ready to begin my first alchemical creation."
The Pontiff nodded, a smile playing on his lips. "What do you require?"
At this question, Miya answered with a fervent voice.
"A True Immortal's Blood!"
