Chapter 91: Potion Master (Two Stars) Infinite Synergy

Chapter 91: Potion Master (Two Stars) Infinite Synergy

When leaving the assessment hall, the sky color was nearing dusk.

Luo En wore a brand-new Potion Master Badge on his chest, his mood soaring.

He strolled along the Cobble Path toward his dormitory, organizing the information he’d gathered that day while plotting his next steps.

“The next step is officially completing all conditions for the Profession Potion Master on the interface.”

He murmured to himself, fingers tracing the badge’s intricate patterns.

Back in his room, he dove straight into preparation for advancement.

According to his notes, the Potion Master profession required brewing three advanced potions. The first he’d chosen was the “Cognitive Awakening Elixir.”

This potion temporarily boosted a user’s spiritual energy, often employed during spell refinement and conception. Its value was immense.

Among advanced potions, it ranked high in difficulty, but with his “Mastered” level Basic Alchemy and “Proficient” level Potion Brewing skill, it shouldn’t pose a major challenge.

Luo En retrieved several rare ingredients purchased from the Market, beginning preparations.

Fruitless Pollen needed soaking under a focused Mana Crystal Lamp. Velvet Root required careful slicing with a silver blade.

Each of the rarer materials demanded specialized handling.

When midnight moonlight spilled through the window, he initiated the brewing process.

As the potion took form, a strange energy condensed within the small crucible.

The liquid shifted from murky to crystal-clear, finally settling into an unfathomably deep abyssal blue, as if peering into an endless void.

【Potion Brewing Experience Points +1】

Luo En exhaled softly, gazing at the completed vial.

This was his first time independently brewing such a complex potion. Though mishaps nearly ruined the batch, the final result was satisfying.

Combined with prior advanced potion brewing experience, he’d fulfilled the last requirement:

【Three advanced potions independently brewed √】

“All conditions for profession advancement are satisfied.”

He muttered inwardly, closing his eyes and mentally selecting: “Confirm advancement to Potion Master.”

In an instant, an unprecedented energy surge erupted through his body.

Unlike the earlier transition to Apothecary Apprentice, this transformation was far more intense, deeper.

He felt his understanding of alchemy undergoing a qualitative leap—every fragment of potion knowledge accumulated formed an immense interconnected web in his mind.

A peculiar sensation arose—he could now “perceive” interactions between ingredients, as if invisible threads linked every material.

【Class Advancement Successful!】
【Profession Acquired: Potion Master (Two Stars)】
【Foundational Attribute Increase:
Spirit: 3.2 → 3.5 (+0.3)
Mana: 1.0 → 1.2 (+0.2)】

Added to the 0.2 spiritual energy gained from recent meditation, he’d edged closer to the High Apprentice standard of 4.0 spiritual energy.

Blinking, Luo En felt the profound transformation coursing through him.

“Compared to the gentle boost from Apothecary Apprentice (One Star), this Two Star profession’s impact is far more dramatic.”

He sat at his desk, opening his profession interface to examine Potion Master’s bonuses.

Beyond the obvious attribute gains, he focused on the special enhancements:

【Special Bonuses:
1. Moderate increase in experience gain rate for potion-related skills.
2. Slight rise in efficiency of potion material utilization.
3. Slight increase in inspiration for potion formula refinement.】

Compared to his earlier Apothecary Apprentice bonuses, these effects weren’t just stronger—they added entirely new dimensions.

“Especially the third—enhanced inspiration for potion formula refinement.”

Rubbing his chin, he mused, “This must be preparing me for developing higher-grade potions.”

【Basic Alchemy (Mastered → Advanced Alchemy (Proficient 1/300)】

He noticed “Basic Alchemy” had automatically advanced to “Advanced Alchemy,” with proficiency reset to (Proficient 1/300).

Yet the previously obtained “Broad Knowledge” trait remained intact.

Moreover, the profession advancement path displayed tree-like on his interface hadn’t dimmed or become inaccessible.

“I knew it!” A spark of realization lit his eyes. “Profession advancement doesn’t grant new core skills but evolves existing ones while retaining traits!”

This confirmed his earlier suspicion—advancing along one path wouldn’t block other routes.

His gaze gleamed with excitement. “That means I can pursue multiple branches of professions with branching paths, stacking diverse attribute bonuses and special abilities!”

Such a possibility thrilled him. In this world dominated by transcendent powers, mastering multiple paths would grant unimaginable advantages.

Of course, he knew his current energy and capacity couldn’t simultaneously develop all professions at full speed.

Prioritization was necessary—concentrate first on core skills.

“But this definitely opens far more possibilities,” he thought, staring at his attribute interface, heart brimming with anticipation.

After all, time was on his side. With spirit pollution completely cleared and a Full Mage’s several-century lifespan, let alone the Archmage, Lich King, or the transcendent Demon God tiers beyond…

Once he ascended to such heights, with millennia or even eternal life ahead, every possibility could be explored…

The cool evening breeze from Black Mist Jungle blew through the window, carrying refreshing crispness.

Luo En glanced around his simple room, a flicker of nostalgia stirring. Soon, he’d leave this humble dwelling he’d inhabited for nearly a year.

………

At dawn, Luo En picked up his ironwood sword for his morning drills, discovering his control over sword techniques had sharpened.

【New Career Synergy:
Potion Master (Two Stars) + Knight’s Squire + Wizard Apprentice
Additional Synergy Bonuses:
- Slight increase in potion absorption efficiency
- Slight improvement in Spirit Control】

Each swing now perfectly synced with his breath, his spirit and physical form reaching unprecedented harmony.

【Foundational Swordsmanship Experience Points +1】
【Current Progress: Foundational Swordsmanship (Proficient 97/100)】

“So even a life profession like Potion Master synergizes with knighthood beyond mere potion support,” he mused.

“A Spirit Control boost positively impacts all skills.”

During spell construction, he found himself controlling spiritual energy flow with finer precision, making the Sound Wave Oscillation effect more stable while reducing energy consumption.

Picking up the half-bottle of Spirit Stabilizer left on the table, he took a small sip.

The previous dose’s effects now seemed subtly prolonged and strengthened. Normally, this quantity lasted about an hour, but today its potency felt at least 30% stronger.

“This is an unexpected bonus.”

A bold idea surfaced—what if he advanced to Bloodline Knight, mastered mage spell construction, and fused all three paths?

“Potions rapidly enhance body and spirit. Knighthood offers a resilient physique to withstand greater power. Mage skills manage the overarching balance,” his eyes gleamed. “A simultaneous progression in Knight, Mage, and Potion Master—eventually far beyond just three synergies.”

He clearly sensed that as his Career System matured, future synergies would grow even stronger:

Magical spells imbued into weapons for elemental-infused physical strikes.
Potions amplifying his body to endure stronger mana flows.
Spiritual energy and physical form evolving in unison, forming a perfect transcendent cycle.

All these possibilities stemmed from his infinite career slots blessing.

“Perhaps I can forge an unprecedented path.”

Luo En’s eyes burned with determination. “Beyond the constraints of traditional mages and knights, I’ll carve my own transcendent Career System.”

In this world ruled by power, only overwhelming strength could protect everything he cherished.

“The dividends of infinite career synergy are far richer than I imagined…”

Grasping his training wooden sword, he resolved to practice more swordsmanship while the potion’s effects lasted.

Breakthrough was imminent. Soon, he’d begin preparations for his Bloodline Knight advancement.
