Theo was born a magical prodigy… cursed never to wield greater magic. Despite his genius, all he could do was to remain in the shadows, scheming for years to get a chance to fight against his fate.  Finally, a daring reincarnation ritual gave him a new body—and a second chance. 

Now unshackled, Theo sets his sights on an impossible dream: to become the first mage in eons to step into the realm that remained untouched since the legendary age. He carves a new path, fusing arcane science from his past life with the mystical cultivation he discovered in his new life. 

But time is ticking. 

Within two years, Theo must return to the ritual’s site—or doom the world to mana cataclysm. Success means everything and failure isn’t an option. As rival masters close in and cosmic forces stir, every step pushes him closer to disaster—or ultimate power of infinite mana cultivation!

Infinite Mana Cultivation

Theo thought to himself, catching just the outline of the settlement as he raced past it.

According to the schedule others would expect of him, that would be his stop.

His entire trip to Visteria, the purchases he made there, and the connection to the Serene clan he just so happened to make there were all for the sake of his spirit stones project.

And now that the materials for the artificial crystals were on their way to the sect, Theo should be there, waiting for the delivery to start his project, right?

Sure, getting the salt and sugar was necessary for the production of the crystallines that could serve as a nucleus from which the spirit stones would be born.

But when it came to the actual manufacturing of said stones, Theo never planned to let it take place at the sect grounds.

In fact, he couldn't allow it to happen anywhere near the sect, if anything!
