Guild Wars

For others, the sheer foundation required was hellish. The Tradeskill technique at the Divine Rank was nothing like the one at the Grandmaster realm. As stated before, a Grandmaster technique framework was like a single pixel on a screen, or an individual polygon of a 3D model, whereas a Divine technique was an entire screen worth of pixels or a fully rendered 3D model.

To go from one to the other was no different from going from a normal earthling to mastered ultra instinct; it was a leap of epic proportions. Luckily, Draco had the foundation to make this leap quite easily since he had Tier 7 Control, which required him to rebuild his initial framework for the Dual Techno-Production technique, causing it to actually adopt its namesake.

Previously, the Dual Techno-Production technique operated by using Control to activate minor psychic abilities to control the parts to levitate around the user through the VoP, while the body used the precision of the BoG to assemble the parts at super speed with exemplary precision.

When rebuilding its framework, it now operated using the far superior Tier 6 VoP, which allowed the VoP to simultaneously assemble and control the items while the body focused on producing the items on the spot rather than preparing them ahead of time.

Not only did this make sure that the device was far more powerful due to the on-the-spot production, the background effect was also to use Divine Energy (external or internal) to infuse each part while being made, while the body tempered the items, making the Divine Energy merge fundamentally with the product.

｢System to Player Announcement

You have developed a new Divine Technique in a Tradeskill. You now have the qualifications to enter the God Rank and have been rewarded with the prowess of the half-step God Rank.

This means you are able to craft Divine Items with your technique and the relevant procedures and Divine Energy from any source. In order to become a full God Rank master, you must craft a Divine Item using your own unique procedures!｣

Likewise, when the technique was done, its description updated.

｢Dual Techno-Production Technique – Divine Technique

Effect: This technique is estimated to increase the chances of success for all devices below the Origin Rank by 100%, their final quality by 5,000%, while also increasing the production speed by 8,000% and consuming 99% less stamina for work. It also grants near-perfect mastery over a unique power system with great applications in all fields.

Description: This technique is a one-of-a-kind manifestation of skill and knowledge merged with a transcendent power to give birth to something that is more than the sum of its parts. By utilizing an Eternal Talent limited to the bloodline of the Chaotic Human Race of the Gerdo Galaxy, one can form a system of practice around this crafting that emphasizes perfection, precision, infusion, purification, and transcendent omnipotence. This method was developed—and improved upon—by Draco Morningstar, the world\'s greatest Immortal Adventurer and the King of the Main Plane.

Estimated Price: 500 quadrillion Top-Grade Aether Crystals, 50 trillion Top-Grade Divine Crystals, or 5 billion Top-Grade Origin Crystals.｣

The power had skyrocketed beyond the limit of common sense. Now, no matter if you were a cat, dog, or ghost, once you learned this technique, your success rate was permanently fixed at 100% for all items below Origin, meaning it was impossible to fail even if you tried.

Being able to freely spit out Divine Rank devices without failure… what kind of monstrous technique had Draco created, and should such a thing really be allowed to exist?

The quality was bumped by 50 times, and the speed of creation by 80 times. On top of that, the amount of stamina it took was reduced to the lowest limit due to the effect of Control…

Sigh.

The moment Draco finished this technique, the Origin God of Magical Engineering, who was currently strutting about the core plane with an arrogant expression after enjoying the benefits of Tier 4 Control, suddenly felt a huge wave of power wash over him.

To the shock, awe, and envy of all the Origin Gods around, who had been glaring at him with irritation for his impudence, they saw that the fellow roared and exploded with a golden light, his hair becoming blonde and spiky.

He had become a Legendary Super Origin God!

Draco already had his Divine Draconic Source Origin, so he immediately began working on his Divine Design for Magical Engineering. He thought about something along the lines of the Energy Converter but discarded it in the end because there wasn\'t much value in a device that converted energies at this point.

The Void Ring was already perfect for its job, so there was no point in making a \'better one.\'

Rather, Draco had to intuit something that was not only complex enough to reach the Divine Rank but was also something that was universally necessary. This made him think of the Portable Portal that he used to use before he was able to teleport at will, something that players and NPCs still used to this day.

It was a Legendary Rank Device with a single use that connected two locations together for one hour regardless of distance. As long as the user knew where the other spot was, they could connect the places together, which was incredibly convenient for moving armies over long distances, but its cost was abhorrent even back then.

Hmm?

Wait, if that was for space, what about time?

What kind of time-element-related device could be exceedingly useful?

Something to reverse aging? Draco could easily make that as a Divine Rank Alchemist. A potion was far more suited for that purpose than a device.

Something to stop time in combat? Well, that was not a bad idea, but don\'t forget, this was a Divine Rank device design that was being theorized. True Gods had Spacetime Regulation, so a mere device trying to stop them would be utterly useless.

Think, something that could be useful for True Gods. What did True Gods, as well as players and NPCs, need the most? It would naturally be a way to rapidly increase the rank of their Divine Law.

What was related to time that could help accelerate Divine law growth?

Wait, that\'s it!

Acceleration!

A device of the Divine Rank linked to the time element that could create a field around a True God, allowing them to rapidly train their law.

Draco was initially excited, then cooled down, because he realized that it still faced the same problem. A True God with Spacetime Regulation could squat down and do the same for themselves without needing a device, so why didn\'t they?

It was the same reason Zaine, Hikari, nor Roma did not, despite being anxious to raise their power. When accelerating time, the rules of the universe were accelerated too, so trying to train was like having the intention to cram your entire school semester\'s worth of studies in one night before the exam using a fast-forwarded video.

However, the video was fast-forwarded, so you could barely catch the crap that was passing by on the screen with your normal human cognition. Meanwhile, if you slowed it down, it was the same issue as not trying to fast-forward it, which was that you didn\'t have enough time to cram it before the exam.

So the solution was as many theorized: if one wanted to fast-forward content and perceive it in super speed while saving time, then one would have to increase the normal person\'s cognition speed to the level of The Flash to process it all.

So, back to the matter at hand, the issue was that the laws of the universe became warped in fast-forwarded time, not to mention that one\'s body aged accordingly with speed-up time, losing lifespan proportionally.

So the solution was to create a device that not only fast-forwarded time but maintained the stability of the relative laws of the world, while also maintaining a mental domain to prevent mental aging of the person in question, as well as physical aging.

Draco immediately began work.

For stability, he opted to use a Divine Rank material from the former Tower of Babylon called the Law Shard, which could be imbued in various crafts like Blacksmithing or Engineering to enhance the power of laws. For some utilities, it could create a training form with enhanced laws for practitioners, while in others, it could be used to boost laws of individuals temporarily.

For time control, he used the counterpart of the Epic Void Stone, the Legendary Rank Chrono Stone. It was the same as the Void Stone, used in various quantities for all purposes related to its element and could create anything of any rank no problem as long as you had enough of it. It was sold at the Rank 7 Shop, and Umbra had millions in stock, so there was no problem here.

For the lifeforce, he used a Divine Rank Life Origin, which was a substance and not a material like the two that came before. This was something that only the Elven Tree of Life could produce, but Umbra had already conquered the continent of the elves and made it one of their \'cities,\' so getting Life Origin was a piece of cake.

For the mental domain, he naturally fetched a very familiar item, which was an Intelligence Booster that dropped from The Intelligence Sentinels of Floors 10-20 of the old Tower of Babylon. The entire race had been kidnapped by Draco back then into the Inner Universe, causing them to be sent to a livable planet to propagate.

They were doing quite well for themselves now, though Roma would occasionally head over for a purge to harvest materials. She had farmed hundreds of thousands of Intelligence Boosters in this time, so Draco grabbed a hundred of them, then melded them together to forcibly create a Divine Rank version to be used as a material while tweaking its function.

With these items and the production process set, the final item was a square-shaped device that looked quite futuristic, more like something that should be in the Sci-fi section.

｢Unnamed – Consumable

Rank: Divine (100% effectiveness)

Effect: Create a field of accelerated time within the limit of a Continent Zone, where the laws are made to be as stable as those outside the time field. The maximum time acceleration ratio is 1:365 based on the main plane\'s time flow.

Note: Physical and mental aging are suppressed to the level of the original time flow while in accelerated time.｣

Draco held it up and inspected it with a smile, satisfied that he had achieved its purpose. He named it the Portable Time Chamber as a reference to that famous other dimension used by the Z Fighters to cheat their villains of their deserved victory.

Since the item had almost literally the same effect, but slightly better, the game\'s system naturally agreed with Draco\'s thoughts as the announcements came bursting out.

｢Congratulations on creating new device: Portable Time Chamber (consumable)(Divine)
