I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 201

Infinite mana!

Jonathan's heart began to beat with excitement, for he too wanted to become someone with infinite mana.

When he was a child, he had read the fairytale where the Great Sage was capable of traveling at breakneck speed. It was a skill that he had always admired.

After he was all grown up and realized that there was no such thing as mana, he naturally dropped the idea.

However, now that Mabel claimed that achieving infinite mana was possible, Jonathan began to give it some thought.

“Door of Enlightenment, Door of Enlightenment,” he mumbled.

Mabel clarified, “It isn't easy opening the Door of Enlightenment, as the path of cultivation gets increasingly difficult down the road. Your current attempt at achieving Celestial Soul is already close to impossible, let alone crossing the gulf between Celestial Soul and the Door of Enlightenment.”

Jonathan, cognizant of the challenges that came with Celestial Soul, concurred with Mabel's explanation.

Mabel added, “Both Celestial Soul and Door of Enlightenment needs to be supported by a huge amount of elixir pills. In order to open the Door of Enlightenment, it's necessary to ensure one's cells and muscle composition have evolved to their peak condition. Only then will the additional nutrients flow into the brain and begin to develop it.”

Jonathan inquired, “Since elixir pills are so important, why doesn't everyone go into alchemy? Is it because only Divine Realm is capable of making them?”

Mabel explained, “Divine Realm isn't the only one who knows how to make them. There are plenty of other reclusive clans and foreign factions who have their own alchemy methods.” After a brief pause, she continued, “Alchemy is such a difficult field that it's impossible for an individual to do it alone. Firstly, you need a specialized vessel with spells carved onto it by a master from The Destino. Some of the spells are used to control the intensity of the fire, while others are used to filter out unwanted ingredients. Using Divine Realm's Luminary Vessel as an example, it's considered a magical treasure from ancient times. It weighs three thousand six hundred pounds and has a hundred and thirty-six spells carved onto it. Every single one of them was done so in exquisite detail. That's the reason why the elixir pills produced by Divine Realm are of such high quality.”

She added, “Furthermore, just having the vessel alone isn't enough. It's also essential to have an alchemist who is proficient in controlling the temperature and familiar with the timing for adding individual ingredients. And yet, these two factors are not even the most difficult part of the process. Do you know was it is?”

Jonathan replied candidly, “No, I don't.”

Mabel elaborated, “The ingredients, you fool! Do you think alchemy produces elixir pills out of thin air? What do you think the Divine Realm mission board is for? It's a list of ingredients and ancient magical relics left all across the world, waiting to be collected. Other than just herbs, there are many other kinds of ingredients used in alchemy. Some elixir pills require the energy of the five elements which is hidden in certain magical treasures. These include energy hidden within the earth and energy derived from fire. So, how did Divine Realm become so powerful? Firstly, they have a large array of elixir pills and employ an army of alchemists to produce them. Secondly, their huge financial resources allow them to employ experts to obtain all the ingredients they need. Therefore, this virtuous cycle enables them to grow from strength to strength. Now tell me, how is an ordinary person capable of building such massive production machinery?”

At that moment, Jonathan had an epiphany.

He suddenly understood that underneath the Divine Realm's glorious facade, all the elites were serving just one man—the Divine Emperor.

He needed the public's faith to increase his mana and their help to collect the necessary ingredients.

At his stage, low-grade elixir pills were not needed anymore. Thus, they were given out as payment for the services of others.

Once the men had completed their dangerous missions, the treasures that they retrieved could then be used to create high-grade Immortal Pills.

Despite Jonathan's knowledge of the fact, he realized he had no choice but to go along with the rules.


After all, even if he had obtained a rare and powerful ingredient, it was useless to him if he couldn't refine it into an elixir pill.

The biggest advantage Divine Realm had was its possession of an alchemy furnace.

In addition, it also had the manpower and facilities to produce elixir pills on an industrial scale.

Jonathan commented in resignation, “Just as expected, everything in the world works on the same principle. The Divine Realm functions just like a factory, while we are essentially its workers. All this is just happening by another name, that's all.”

After chatting about something else with Jonathan, Mabel inquired, “So, what are your plans now?”

Jonathan answered, “Lucio isn't going to stop, while there's also the threat of Jeremy. The politics within Divine Realm is extremely complicated considering both of them belong to Oswald's faction. In fact, I don't even dare take on any missions now, for it would be troublesome if they were to get involved. Furthermore, I can't allow Simon and the others to join in. Once I have more men on my side, Lucio, too, would gather more men on his, which would be detrimental for us, as we're still no match for them.”

As Jonathan had described the conflict between different factions earlier, Mabel had an idea of what was going on. Thus, she commented, “Don't you have your own faction too?”

Smiling wryly, Jonathan explained, “Our status within the faction is not even worth mentioning. Thus, how can we even rely on them for help?”

Mabel remarked, “Actually, there's no need for you to overcomplicate matters, as the few different factions have not fallen out with one another. Besides, with Divine Emperor still in charge, Oswald's faction won't allow Lucio to escalate the situation.”

Briefly stunned, Jonathan replied, “You do have a point. I'll try to think of a plan.”

Mabel added, “Okay. Let me know if you need any help.”

“Sure!”

With that, both of them ended the call, causing silence to descend upon the room.

Subsequently, Jonathan was in no mood to continue training. After doing so for the entire day, he felt he had done enough.

Walking up to the full-length windows, he drew the curtains aside and proceeded to open the windows.

The moment he did, a mixture of wind and snow instantly blew into the room, which was previously kept exceedingly warm by the heater.

Considering that he was on the thirtieth floor, Jonathan could see the entire Lostaria skyline.

The sight of countless skyscrapers in front of him reminded him of many blockbusters from Anglandur. In those movies, the unlucky residents of Lostaria would encounter all sorts of disasters including alien invasions, attacks by giant monsters, a mad scientist threatening to blow the planet up, or even an approaching hurricane.

Their lives would constantly be under threat.

With that thought in mind, Jonathan smiled in amusement.

Despite being embroiled in a crisis, he was still letting his imagination run wild.

Living in a group recently had caused him to suddenly miss the days he was single.

Hence, he decided to go to Chanaentown to find a barbeque stall where he could have a beer and grilled skewers in the chilly weather. That was certainly something that would cheer him up.

Holding that thought, he left his room to act upon his urge but didn't invite Simon to go with him.

Soon, when Jonathan left the hotel and stepped out into the snow, the shimmering lights of Lostaria's streets made for a beautiful and glorious sight.

This time, his car was not available, as Catherine had taken the Bentley.

Thus, hailing a taxi was his only choice.

After straightening his black coat, he walked up to the street.

It was then that he heard a cheerful voice. “Mister!” someone called out in Ustranasian.

Turning around to look, Jonathan realized it was the Smealander girl from the previous day.

She was dressed in a cheap leather jacket and looked a lot warmer than before.

Holding a small umbrella above her head, she was visibly delighted to see him.

Jonathan, surprised by the encounter, knelt down before asking with a gentle smile. “Little girl, do you need more money?”

No sooner had he spoken than he proceeded to take some out.
