Chapter 1908: Divine Alchemy Soul: All-Heaven Cauldron
—–
While lost in thought, I drifted into sleep, dreaming of meeting Bark again and asking what he wished me to do about the man who had betrayed him.
When he gazed at me, his voice was gentle yet firm.
“That grudge is not yours to carry. Such burdens should not trouble you, master. Live your life in peace. I am already gone.”
In that instant, I awoke.
The faint chirping of birds drifted through the window, mingling with the morning chill. Another day had arrived.
That Alchemy Soul Ritual had truly sapped our strength. Master Felicia had been relentless in drawing upon its power.
Yet that dream lingered. Was it truly him? Or merely my own heart speaking?
Unlike the vivid dreams where I converse with others, this one felt distant and hazy—a ordinary dream.
So it could not have been Bark’s soul. His essence was elsewhere.
“Good morning, Sylphy. Did you sleep well? You were groaning a little. Was it a bad dream?” Alice asked softly, appearing at my side.
“I sensed something unusual as well,” Yggdra added with a nod.
“Ah, no… it’s nothing,” I yawned, suddenly noticing Aquarina curled warmly against me. “Huh?”
I had fallen asleep alone last night, yet sometime in the darkness she had slipped into my bed and chosen to stay close.
That was perfectly fine—we were girlfriends, after all—but it still caught me by surprise.
“I dreamed of Bark. Before sleeping, dark thoughts weighed on me,” I sighed. “I’m still torn about everything that happened to him.”
“Is that so?” Yggdra murmured. “Why does it trouble you?”
“I don’t know what to do. Yet I often worry over matters far beyond my current reach,” I admitted with another sigh. “Perhaps I should focus on what truly matters right now.”
“I agree,” Alice said gently. “Why not examine your new Divine Skill? It might reveal more about what an Alchemy Soul entails—especially one belonging to a Goddess… or Demigoddess, but details hardly matter.”
“Hmm, all right,” I nodded, sitting up to read the description. “Oh?”

[Divine Alchemy Soul: All-Heaven Cauldron: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency: 0/100,000
A Divine Skill unique to you as a Goddess, born from fusing your Alchemy Runes with your Divine Goddess Soul to form a singular Divine Alchemy Soul infused with heavenly essence. This is the manifestation of your Divine Goddess Soul united with your Alchemy Runes—the first Divine Alchemy Soul ever created, embodying a God’s true power over Alchemy.
By expending vast amounts of Mana, Spirit Energy, and Divine Power, you may unleash the abilities of your Divine Alchemy Soul, enabling you to Refine, Synthesize, Shapeshift, Transform, and fundamentally alter the structure of the world’s Elements to a far higher and purer state. Even processing Elements and Materials left by Divine Beasts and Gods becomes possible.
Your Divine Alchemy Soul will evolve alongside your Divine Power, potentially becoming a distinct Divinity of its own and elevating Alchemy to unprecedented divine heights. Should you persist along this path, you may well become the first Goddess of Alchemy.
However, its potential remains restricted—described as “incomplete” and “hollow”—until bound to a special Divine-Grade Alchemy Cauldron-type Soul Treasure. All Divine Abilities of this Skill are currently 80% weaker as a result.
Divine Abilities:
[Divine Alchemy: Particle Synthesis (1)]: Enables the combination of divine-grade materials into new items according to recipes, blueprints, and formulas.
[Divine Alchemy: Absolute Extraction (1)]: Permits the extraction of components from divine-grade materials.
[Divine Alchemy: Elemental Metamorphosis (1)]: Allows the reshaping of extracted divine-grade materials into different forms.
[???]: Additional Abilities will unlock as the Skill Level rises.
Level Bonus (1): Enhances Mastery, Effectiveness, and Power of All Alchemy by 500%. Increases Quality and Success Rate of All Alchemy Spells by 60%. Processing Divine-Grade Materials grants a varying number of Divine Alchemy Runes within your Alchemy Soul and Magic Circle.

“Huh, it’s impressive, but so restricted,” I murmured.
“Yes, this is only the beginning. Once you obtain the Soul Cauldron, the true might of the All-Heaven Cauldron should awaken,” Alice explained with an encouraging nod.
“But it requires a Divine Cauldron! How am I supposed to create something like that? There’s nothing divine on this entire mountain that could help,” I protested.
“That is indeed the greatest hurdle,” Alice acknowledged. “Have you checked your inventory? There must be something divine you can use.”
“Hmm. Glutton, come here,” I called, summoning him. He greeted me with an affectionate lick before I opened his vast mouth. “Let’s see… Oh, huh… wait! Did I have this? No way. Maybe this could work. I never used it? Why not… And what is this?”
I delved deep into items I had hoarded for years, carefully sorting anything that carried even a trace of divine essence—materials that could qualify as divine-grade or at least lesser divine-grade.
I found a few precious pieces. Though my parents had claimed most of the loot from every False God or God Descent Avatar we defeated—either selling the remnants or storing them as national treasures—I had always managed to snatch a fragment or two for myself.
Among them were materials from the time an Evil Goddess descended into that enormous spider woman. I could not recall her name at first, but she had been a formidable foe.
Right—Lolth. When she possessed Arachne as her vessel, even after death the body retained immense divine power.
Half of it had been obliterated, the rest claimed by my mother. Yet I had secured two remarkable pieces: a massive black horn the size of a house and a still-fresh crimson eye.
[Lolth’s Vessel Demonic Horn] and [Lolth’s Vessel Demonic Eye]. Both brimmed with True Demon Essence and Evil Divine Power.
I was uncertain whether they would harmonize with my Cauldron. I would need to test their elemental wavelengths against my own.
Still, more materials were required. I continued rummaging through my inventory, uncovering several other promising items.
I began examining the various divine materials stored in my inventory. Among them were several Evil God Fragments from Lolth. But beyond those, I also possessed a few other treasures, including the [Divine False God Sunstone Body Fragments] from Apollo—the False God whose seemingly counterfeit divinity had been forged from the endless torment of countless souls trapped within his core.
