Throughout history, countless apples have fallen on human heads, but people have taken it for granted.

The sun rises and sets every day; there are spring, summer, autumn, and winter; there is birth, aging, sickness, and death.

Until one day, a persistent scientist pondered why apples fall to the ground.

Ilubeck was someone who was struck by the magic potion industry and began to think about it.

This Transcendent world.

Potionry has existed for countless millennia, from its inception to the present day, in this age of steam-powered Mechanical Civilization.

Countless outstanding potion masters have created numerous potion formulas that can unleash human potential, resulting in powerful Transcendent individuals.

However, few people have explored how these formulas actually work in the human body.

Like Rein, the Potionry Apprentice, his understanding of "Potionry" was limited to this level. He thought, "Potions" are simply the extraction and fusion of ingredients with specific effects to create a potion with Transcendent powers?"

As for why these strange materials undergo those magical chemical reactions to become a magic potion that can activate human potential, who cares?

This is also the first level that junior and intermediate potion masters and ordinary people are in; they only understand "the effects of the medicine".

Advanced potion masters reside on the second level, where they contemplate and refine recipes to improve quality.

The potion makers of the ancient civilization were on the third level. They understood the "medicinal properties" of various materials, thus enabling them to create new potion recipes.

Ilubeck's realm is at the fifth level, where he studies the "pharmacology" of how potions affect human genes.

To distinguish his research from traditional Potionry, Ilubeck calls his current research topic "Modern Potionry".

The term "Gene Chain" first appeared in his research.

With the invention of microscopic scientific instruments in the steam civilization, this Transcendent discipline that leads to the divine finally had the means and methods to explore its principles.

While Ilubeck's innovations in the field of potions may not rival those of the potion masters of ancient civilizations who could create Gods and Demons potions, the depth of his theoretical knowledge and achievements stand at the pinnacle of humanity, unmatched in the present and even throughout history, perhaps even reaching the very essence of truth!

He is a potion master and a biological scientist.

"What I've been saying is simply to let you know the essence of Potionry. And what will you see if you continue down this path?"

The old man's tone gradually softened, and he said to Rein, "The subject I'm researching is still too abstract for you right now. You can understand it if you want, but it's okay if you can't. Now, learn the basics of Potionry, and you'll be qualified to explore more advanced theoretical knowledge in the future."

"Oh."

Rein nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

"We were born in a very good era. Unlike people a thousand years ago, we don't have to constantly fight against harsh living conditions. Now, the Mechanical City provides us with a safe haven, and technological equipment gives us effective means of research."

At this point, Ilubeck suddenly sighed, "Unfortunately, the development of high-precision equipment is lagging far behind my theories. This greatly affects my research progress. If I had more advanced observation equipment, allowing me to conduct experiments at the microscopic level, such as cutting Gene Chain, I could even create highly effective Gene Potion with purity approaching 100%."

A 100% pure potion?

To an outsider, this would sound like a complete fantasy.

Even the best potion makers today produce high-quality potions with an impurity rate approaching 20%. This is an unavoidable ineffective component during the fusion of materials, which cannot be eliminated no matter how many times it is purified.

Rein couldn't quite understand how the old man had done it, but he caught another piece of information in the old man's words.

"More advanced scientific research equipment?"

Upon hearing this, he immediately thought of the Airship Wreckage mentioned in Baron Morin's Relic.

Clearly, the ability to manufacture Steam Airship indicates a technological level far superior to that of the Omar and Sid empires.

Perhaps there is more sophisticated research equipment in that wreckage.

Rein once thought that once he had gained enough strength, he would go "treasure hunting" and find the Airship Wreckage.

However, this experience of regaining his freedom made him more cautious and apprehensive as he gained a deeper understanding of the dangers of the wilderness.

Baron Morin's survival with his Second Tier [Awakened] strength was probably just as lucky as his initial mistake of entering the "Bakenya Highlands".

Unexplored foggy areas hold countless dangers that you may never know.

Rein felt that, let alone the Second Tier, even after advancing to the Third Tier or Fourth Tier of Transcendent, going alone would definitely not be a good choice.

Moreover, he also had to consider a fact he had never thought of before.

Why did the airship crash?!

A highly civilized people, with advanced technology and perhaps greater strength, what caused the crash? What happened to the people on the airship? Were they all wiped out, or were there any survivors?

If the airship crashed due to external forces, there might be some deadly threat lurking near the wreckage.

Taking Bazel at his peak strength would be a good choice, but this guy is currently "crippled," and his combat power isn't much higher than his own.

To find treasure, one probably needs to find the right opportunity and a powerful, trustworthy ally.

Without much thought, Ilubeck brought his thoughts back to reality.

"Alright, enough of that. Now I'll explain some basics of Potionry."

After midnight, the "ten-day agreement" had expired.

Rein never received any news from the Countess.

He has read a lot of books in the past few days and has gained a general understanding of the world.

Although he couldn't quite guess who the pseudonym "Madam Vanessa" was, he found clues about the names of Uncle Sam and the others from some event announcements and bounty posters.

[Dragon Spear] Sam Aurora, [Soul Catcher] Benjamin, [Elephant Beauty] Susan Gatalan, [Rampaging Loli] Sandora

Several renowned high-ranking members of the Black Gold Merchant Guild accompanied them, making the identity of "Madam Vanessa" self-evident.

Although he had been fooled by these Transcendent big shots who were either Fourth Tier or fifth rank, Rein didn't hold much resentment.

After all, they had received many favors from others. If they hadn't met them, they would probably have been wiped out by the Beast Tide on the mountain road.

However, this also left Rein somewhat puzzled.

With such a strong lineup, what could have delayed their return?

However, the agreed deadline had passed, and Rein had no intention of continuing to take care of Wudo.

Omar's intelligence department hadn't found the lost "sacred relic," so they certainly hadn't given up. Early that morning, Rein had to carefully disguise the barbarian girl among the hunting party heading out of the city; they made it out safely without incident.

His only responsibility was to escort the girl out of the city; how she returned to the tribe was none of his concern.

After fulfilling his two promises, Rein suddenly felt a great sense of relief.

With Wudo gone, he also got rid of a troublesome person.

At least you don't have to worry every day about your hotel room being broken into and you getting caught in the crossfire.

Now, it seems he can develop stealthily in this "City of Radiance" all by himself.

After Wudo left, Rein canceled his hotel room and moved into Ilubeck's laboratory.

Every morning I would go out to the martial arts gym to train for a few hours, then go to the library to read at noon, and return to the lab in the afternoon, repeating this process.

Cultivating oneself, reading, and learning.

My life is very regular.

Rein gradually got used to his fulfilling life.

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Rein went out very early in the morning.

Today, there is a grand event in the "City of Radiance" that is absolutely not to be missed by Transcendent individuals in the Fighter Sequence.

The two fifth-tier grandmasters of the two major branches of the Fighter Sequence, [Qi Master] and [Martial Artist], will hold an annual martial arts competition at the dojo.

At the same time, the "Six Forms of Combat" will be taught to anyone who is not a martial arts school student for a fee!

[Cannon Fist], [Wind Walk], [Ten Hands], [Storm Cutter], [Sky God Strike], [Vajra].

The six most recognized "ultimate-level" martial arts techniques in the world of combat sports!
