Chapter 96 - The Road to Legend!

Caesar.

Such a distant memory.

"I haven't been called Caesar for a long time... More words are useless, let's see the truth under our hands. I, the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard, have come this far entirely through my own efforts, which I have fought for bit by bit! Your conspiracy will not succeed, even if I die, I will not let you achieve the Legendary!"

On the other side.

The Wizards of Boiling Beast Blood, watching Lady Rowling suddenly break into the Secret Realm, were trembling in their hearts.

Most of them came from the Life Realm, and followed Caesar to defect to the Endless Sea in the past.

But the fear of Lady Rowling in their hearts has never dissipated.

Compared to the Elemental School and the Death School, the School of Life is a relatively new school.

Historically, no Legendary Wizard has ever been born.

And Rowling is the closest person to the Legendary in history.

To some extent, the "Monster Lady" Rowling is synonymous with the School of Life.

Rowling looked like she hated iron for not becoming steel, and sighed faintly: "You are still so stubborn, just like when I created you... in the beginning."

Hearing this.

All the Wizards of Boiling Beast Blood were dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

"What? The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard is made by Lady Rowling? Isn't he an orphan who was taken in?"

"It's over, it's over, today this Boiling Beast Blood is afraid it will become history."

Immediately, some Black Wizard wanted to escape, but found that the entire Secret Realm entrance had been completely sealed by an unbreakable force.

Some Primal Soul Wizard wanted to Shatter the Void, but they couldn't do it either.

This Secret Realm was completely sealed off.

Above the high sky, Wizard battle groups exuding terrifying aura descended from the sky.

Like heavenly soldiers and generals, they surrounded the Boiling Beast Blood's station.

A blonde Witch with a dignified face, vast aura, and wearing a gorgeous robe appeared.

This is the Minister of the Supervisory Department, Great Wizard Andrea, also known as the Lady of Chains.

She said coldly:

"All members of Boiling Beast Blood are suspected of crimes such as 'endangering the public order and social security of the Wizard World', 'intentional homicide', and 'robbery'... After the arrest decree signed by the Supervisory Department, the Supervisory Department, and the Tribunal, you will be arrested. Confess leniently, resist strictly, everyone, put down your Wizard tools and cooperate with us to take compulsory measures, otherwise you will be directly killed without mercy! With us here, you don't need to worry about the oath of loyalty established by the Boiling Beast Blood organization, and the Supreme Council will also give you a second chance to reform and start a new life."

At this moment, the faces of all the members of Boiling Beast Blood changed drastically, and an atmosphere of despair spread.

There were a few who didn't believe in evil and tried to escape and resist.

They were turned into Ash on the spot by the fire spears that fell from the sky.

Even the Primal Soul Wizard didn't last long.

"I surrender!"

"I am willing to accept legal punishment!"

"I was wrong!"

The psychological defenses of the Black Wizards were instantly defeated in front of the two Great Wizards.

They knew that the Supreme Council had come to settle accounts after the autumn harvest.

The reason why they didn't come before, but now they come, is likely to be inseparable from the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard's promotion to the Ninth Ring.

The Supreme Council was fully capable of taking them down during the Black and White Wizard War.

However, the Supreme Council did not do so.

Watching those former subordinates betray him on the spot, the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard sneered:

"Hehe, Rowling, you and these people in the Supreme Council are really hypocritical, I want to find Great Wizard Urgus!"

The Lady of Chains looked at the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard as if she were looking at a pitiful insect.

She said softly, "Urgus is suspected of 'harboring' and 'dereliction of duty' and has already been placed on file for investigation by the Tribunal."

The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard's face was desolate, and he gave a miserable smile.

"It seems you have completed all the preparations, just waiting to devour me and let Rowling advance to Legendary."

The Lady of Chains looked at Rowling and asked softly, "Madam, shall I arrest him?"

Rowling said, "You go busy yourself with other things. I'll take care of the monster I created myself."

The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard said, word by word.

"Rowling! You are the monster!"

Behind him, the Beast King Hundred Aspects Wizard Manifestation let out a muffled roar, and the claws sewn together from pure-blooded dragonkin grabbed towards Rowling.

Rowling didn't move, not even using her Wizard Manifestation.

A pure white swan descended from the sky, spreading twelve incomparably holy wings, emitting a sacred light.

"Angela, take him down."

This monster, resembling a swan and an angel, made a crisp and pleasant female voice.

"Yes, Madam."

Angela transformed into a true angel... except, she had a goose head.

She grew six arms, holding six Holy Swords!

Brilliant white light shot out, piercing through those giant beast phantoms one by one.

The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard was like a demon god, and Angela the angel formed two beams of light, one black and one white.

They collided and fought in the high sky, and other Wizards couldn't see their figures at all.

Wherever they passed, everything was annihilated. If the battle Magic Array hadn't sealed and reinforced the Secret Realm, this place would have been shattered long ago.

Rowling said:

"Angela alone is no match for Caesar. Grina and Williams, you go help her."

As soon as she finished speaking.

A monster that looked like a toad, with a bumpy surface, but with an incomparably beautiful, stunning woman's face growing on its back, emerged. It was Grina, who called herself "Frog Princess."

"Hahaha, Angela can't beat Caesar? Watch this princess!"

Another cute-looking red mushroom with limbs hopped out. It was called Williams, who called himself "Mushroom Prince."

"Oh oh oh, Caesar is disobedient. Madam, don't worry, this prince will teach him a lesson!"

These two monsters, exuding Ninth Ring aura, rushed into the battlefield, suppressing the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard until he had no power to fight back.

Surrounded by three monsters who had already stepped into the Ninth Ring, the battle ended without any suspense.

The Frog Princess's tongue was of unknown length, but it surrounded the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard in three layers, inside and out, within a thousand miles. The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard struggled in it, to no avail.

The Mushroom Prince kept throwing all kinds of strange little mushrooms, blasting the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard's Wizard Manifestation full of holes.

The six Holy Swords from the Twelve-Winged Goose Angel pierced through the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard's body, nailing him into the void, unable to move.

The Lady of Chains couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Also at the Ninth Ring, she was far behind Lady Rowling.

Rowling didn't even need to do it herself. Any three monsters could subdue the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard.

The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard's face was ashen, but he still stared at Rowling coldly, without begging for mercy.

Rowling said, "Caesar, your strength and ambition don't match. You are blinded by desire. You could have been like Angela, Grina, and Williams, becoming my best... family."

The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard laughed:

"I don't want to be your family, to be your tool and experimental subject. I just want to be myself. I, the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard, can come out and walk around, and I have no regrets even in death!"

After a moment of silence, Rowling said:

"Alright, I'll grant your wish."

In the heavens and earth, the azure giant tree grew wildly, countless branches stretching out, engulfing the Hundred Beast Mad Wizard and piercing into his body. The Hundred Beast Mad Wizard's figure constantly shrank, his aura plummeting.

He watched helplessly as he fell from Ninth Ring, step by step, to Eighth Ring, Seventh Ring... In an instant, he arrived at First Ring, then fell into the mortal realm, becoming an ordinary person, a naked blond man.

But this was not the end.

Within the blond man's body, blood vessels began to bulge, and terrifying roars echoed.

He began to hunch over, wither, his body shrinking, turning into a child, a baby, a ball of flesh, and finally a blood sphere the size of a fist.

Within the blood sphere, the faint silhouettes of a hundred different giant beasts could be seen.

Lady Rowling held the blood sphere, sighing, "Caesar, I gave you life, and I also grant you death. Next, you will be with me from another perspective, witnessing the legendary path that belongs to you and me!"

The blood sphere flew into the azure giant tree that was already covered with 100 fruits.

The green leaves began to turn blood-red, and the fruits became blood fruits.

Faint roars echoed from within the giant tree.

The giant tree continued to grow, piercing through the sky of the Secret Realm, and still growing, its branches and green leaves forming a faint azure path, spreading to the Darkness Zone. Countless Truth Runes shone on the path, like stars in the sky, adorning it.

The Wizards present were all shocked by this scene.

Even the Lady of Chains watched nervously, her breathing becoming rapid.

"Lady Rowling's legendary path has begun... After the Frost Witch, another legend is about to be born in the Wizarding World! I have witnessed history!"

On this brilliant path, Lady Rowling in a white robe walked alone. With each step, her figure became more illusory, and her aura became more powerful.

And on both sides of the road were unspeakable disasters and tribulations that only Lady Rowling could see, unknowable great terrors! Lady Rowling's figure gradually receded and disappeared.

Northern Sea Secret Realm.

Lucy the Witch opened her eyes.

"Rowling is about to become a legend."

Central Realm.

Powerful gazes looked towards the deep sky.

The Abyss Walker muttered to himself:

"Next, it's my turn!"

Ten years later.

Nora 175.

Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

Levi, 599 years old, emerged from a long period of seclusion.

His mental Strength and aura were much stronger than they had been ten years ago.

He seemed more profound and restrained.

He placed his hand on the Klein Crystal Ball.

[Mental Strength: 5600]

"Almost there, only 429 points left to the limit."

"Looking back, I'm almost 600 years old. At this rate, I have hope of advancing to the Seventh Ring realm before I turn seven hundred."

While his mental Strength was increasing, the proficiency of his spells was also rapidly improving under his diligent cultivation.

Blood of Earth King, Destruction Melt Flow, Holy Flame Giant, and Shining Eye had all been trained to the Sixth Ring level of the fourteenth tier, and could be used in battle.

These spells would be his sharp weapons against the demon army.

He wanted to try to max them out before the Bloody Battle.

And the special spell Death Finger had also been maxed out.

Levi's cultivation method involved continuously casting spells on Nightmare Creatures in the Nightmare World.

Initially, he could only instantly kill Nightmare Creatures below Fifth Ring, but now, even Sixth Ring Nightmare Lords could potentially be killed with a single blow!

Of course, the success rate wasn't very high.

Even with the 90% luck bonus from the Lovers Rune, Levi only had about a one-third success rate. The stronger the opponent, the lower the success rate. Against a Sixth Ring peak powerhouse, the success rate was less than one-fifth.

This spell is indeed quite useless.

Levi didn't regret learning it, though.

In any case, the main purpose was to imprint Wizard Marks.

Furthermore, spells like Death Scythe, Teleportation, Feast of Crows, and Wind King Cloak weren't far from their limits either.

Overall, he had nearly mastered all seventeen of his Sixth Ring spells. The remaining fine-tuning could be done slowly over the next century.

"Just ten more Primal Soul spells, and I'll be complete."

Although these last ten were mainly to make up the numbers, Levi wanted to plan them carefully, striving for a balanced distribution across all major schools.

Of the seventeen spells he currently possessed, aside from Destruction Melt Flow and Holy Flame Giant, which were dual-school spells, the remaining fifteen included two Earth spells, one Fire spell, one Ocean spell, one Storm spell, one Thunder spell, three Death spells, one Darkness spell, one Shadow spell, one Astrology spell, one Life spell, and two Light spells.

"I've learned enough Death School spells; I can't learn any more. The Light School is almost complete as well. One Darkness and one Shadow spell are sufficient. The Prophecy school has the Coin of Destiny, which is enough for now; I'll learn more advanced spells later. Next, I need to learn more spells from the seven elemental schools and collect as many dual-school spells as possible."

Dual-school spells clearly had a wider range of applications, and imprinting them as Wizard Marks would result in more complex [Mixed Wizard Marks].

Of course, collecting dual-school spells was also very difficult.

Because throughout history, dual cultivators were a minority.

Apart from official organizations like the Supreme Council, it was estimated that few private or top-tier Wizard organizations had inheritances of this kind of spell.

"I still need to find a way to get them from the official side. I'll entrust this task to Gandalf; he's skilled in diplomacy and has more connections."

Levi himself was really too lazy to deal with the official side.

His previous cooperation with the official side, establishing various experimental pilot programs, was mainly to facilitate the integration of the Ancient Dragon Continent's organizations into the Wizard World, obtain official endorsement, and make it easier to recruit people.

Several days later.

After finishing a round of cultivating the Crimson Emperor Dragon Breathing Technique.

Levi inspected his Divine Palace, which was even more solid than before.

Feeling the increase in Strength, he casually threw a punch. The fist wind swept across the training ground, and the shockwave spread outwards, carving a trench dozens of miles long into the earth.

The shattered Subspace turbulence took a long time to heal.

"This is the power of the Sixth Ring peak Red Emperor Dragon. If a Sixth Ring peak powerhouse were to withstand my casual punch head-on, they would have a near-death experience."

In addition to the increase in Strength, the coverage diameter of Levi's [Red Emperor Domain] had reached 12 kilometers, and the basic attribute Strength amplification upon activation had reached 600%.

After reaching the peak, he wasn't far from the complete limit of the Red Emperor Dragon.

Currently, it seemed that his Knight advancement to Seventh Ring would still be slightly faster than his Wizard advancement, but the difference wouldn't be significant.

"I also need to start preparing the advancement materials for Seventh Ring."

Fire-type Strength-based Dragon races were relatively common.

However, Seventh Ring ones were rare.

But if it was just Bloodline Essence, the difficulty was much lower.

It was possible to obtain it at auctions and various Wizard gatherings.

Moreover, the price wasn't expensive.

In comparison, the other Seventh Ring auxiliary materials might be harder to find.

Next, Levi, based on previous recipes, divided the advancement materials that might be needed to advance the various breathing techniques to Seventh Ring into two parts.

The first part consisted of materials that were relatively easy to find and cheap, which were issued as organization missions.

After receiving these missions, the organization's management personnel would treat them as priority tasks, issue generous rewards, and fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the members to collect them.

The second part consisted of expensive, high-level materials that most members, with their Strength and wealth, wouldn't be able to obtain unless they had incredible luck.

This part of the materials needs to be handed over to Levi's specially trained purchasing personnel to find in major markets, shops, and auctions.

As the various organizations become increasingly strong, Levi clearly feels that there are quite a few benefits to establishing organizations.

Most of the trivial matters that his cultivation might involve now are all distributed to the various organizations.

He no longer has to worry about trivial matters such as materials for meditation-aiding potions. How could it be like in the beginning, when Levi had to go to the Wizard World to find them himself?

Next, because the Golden Radiance Dragon Breathing Technique was not far from its peak, Levi worked hard for a while.

One year later, Nora 176.

The Golden Radiance Dragon also stepped into the Sixth Ring peak, and Levi was also 600 years old!

After the breakthrough, the Golden Radiance Dragon's defensive capabilities improved once again.

In particular, the effect of the Golden Gravity that Levi often used was much stronger than before.

The coverage of the Magneto Domain also has a diameter of 10 kilometers.

It can be seen that the gap between the Golden Radiance Dragon and the Red Emperor Dragon is still quite large.

And as the realm continues to improve, this gap may become larger and larger. Myth and Super Myth are indeed different.

This year.

Hundred Flowers also broke through, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew, I've been in seclusion for more than twenty years, and I almost missed Levi's six hundredth birthday. Fortunately, I set a special reminder."

Now, the Hundred Flower Knight's mental power has reached the Sixth Ring limit level. Because she has taken a lot of Truth Wonders, her upper limit is 5200 points. Although it is far less than Levi, it is still much higher than other geniuses.

Emperor Palace.

Levi looked at Hundred Flowers.

"It seems that you have made all the preparations for the Seventh Ring. It's faster than I thought."

Hundred Flowers smiled:

"Although I can't compare to you monster, I am also a rising star in the Wizard World. By the way, how far are you from the limit?"

Levi said: "I'm almost there too, but it will take another hundred years. I'm not in a hurry. I want to imprint 27 Wizard Marks, and I'm still far from that."

Hundred Flowers couldn't help but pinch Levi when she heard this.

"You are really perverted, are you really planning to imprint 27?"

She felt it was difficult to imprint 12, and she really didn't want to continue waiting.

27... She felt that she could imprint until the end of time.

Levi said with a slightly smug look: "That's right, before advancing to the Ninth Ring, I want to imprint 81!"

Hundred Flowers smiled:

"Anyway, I've already figured it out, I won't compare myself to monsters."

Levi asked:

"Have you found your advancement potion?"

Hundred Flowers heard this.

"Not yet, I plan to ask Triss and buy it from her."

Levi said: "Don't ask, she doesn't have it either, only the recipe, no materials."

Hundred Flowers pondered.

"Why don't we go to Lady Lucy? The lady is so kind, she definitely won't mind, right?"

But Levi smiled and shook a bottle of potion in front of her.

"Flower Fairy's Blessing Potion, increases the success rate of advancement by 15%, how confident are you in advancing?"

Hundred Flowers said in surprise: "You prepared it for me? Where did you buy it?"

Levi then told her about Roger's banquet.

Hundred Flowers was unable to join in the excitement, feeling incredibly regretful.

She said, "I should have a 70% success rate of advancing to the Seventh Ring."

Levi pondered.

"Seventy percent is actually quite high, worth a try."

Compared to advancing from the Fifth Ring to the Sixth Ring.

Advancing from the Sixth Ring to the Seventh Ring doesn't require enduring the Three Calamities and Four Tribulations.

Moreover, it doesn't require things like shattered crystals; even if the advancement fails, it won't necessarily lead to death and the dissipation of one's cultivation.

Of course, if it fails, the success rate for breaking through again will plummet.

Cultivation is like this: one should strike while the iron is hot, then wane, and finally exhaust oneself.

Therefore, one must do everything to the extreme before considering advancement, and not harbor thoughts of trying one's luck.

For Levi, a 70% success rate wasn't high.

He would dare to try only with at least 90%, preferably 99%, or even 100%, but that was obviously unrealistic.

He handed the Flower Fairy potion to Hundred Flowers and gently hugged her.

"Good luck, I wish you success."

A warm feeling surged in Hundred Flowers' heart.

She didn't speak, just hugged Levi, unwilling to let go.

She softly said:

"In my life, this is the first time someone has given me an advancement potion."

Levi said:

"Don't mention it, this is also the first time in my life that I've given away a precious advancement potion. This thing should be able to serve as your birthday gift, right?"

Hundred Flowers smiled knowingly, "My leader, it seems preparing a birthday gift is causing you a lot of distress. How about this, let's skip the birthday gifts for the next hundred years, haha."

Levi was overjoyed. The spring of a married old man had arrived. This potion was well worth giving!

After decades of tireless cultivation, the two had a tacit understanding and took a vacation for themselves, celebrating for several days.

During his moment of clarity, Levi looked at the latest newspaper, his eyes shaking.

[Sauron Daily: Leader of the School of Life, Councilor Lady Rowling, has recently successfully advanced to Legendary, with the Legendary title "Hand of Creation". Let all Wizards congratulate Lady Rowling on joining the Supreme Council, becoming the 12th Legendary Wizard of our time, and also becoming the first Legendary Wizard in the history of the School of Life!]

The news was short but shocking. The birth of each Legendary was a major event of the first order in the Wizarding World.

Levi was not surprised by Lady Rowling's advancement to Legendary.

She had long been a Great Wizard at the peak, just waiting for her Legendary cornerstone.

Levi continued reading the newspaper and found that Lady Rowling's basic information was also on the newspaper.

[Rowling]

[Legendary Title: Hand of Creation]

[Legendary Profession: Life Mother Tree]

[Demiplane: Upside-Down Tree Realm]

[Legendary Honorific: Mother of All Things, Holy Hand that Creates Everything!]

Levi murmured.

"Mother of All Things, Holy Hand that Creates Everything… This honorific sounds extraordinary. Could Lady Rowling also be a reincarnation of a Legendary Wizard?"

Ever since learning from Roger that many Legendary Wizards would reincarnate in this era, Levi now saw everyone as a reincarnation of a Legendary Wizard.

"Among the current group of Great Wizards in the council, there should still be reincarnations of Legendary Wizards. However, before they have the absolute strength to advance to Legendary, they won't reveal their identities. If they are targeted by enemies, it will always be troublesome."

Hundred Flowers, who had woken up, also saw the newspaper.

"Great, another Legendary. The chances of surviving the Bloody Battle are even greater!"

Levi nodded.

In clashes between such large civilizations and top-tier civilizations, setting aside the uncertain Eleventh Ring existences,

Tenth Ring existences are the key to victory or defeat in the war.

If the Legendary Wizards lose, then the destruction of the Wizard World is only a matter of time.

Several days later.

The entire Wizard World, the Subspace, and the mortal realm all learned of the birth of a new legend.

Most people sang, danced, celebrated, cheered, and rejoiced! The Life Realm even held a month-long super carnival.

If it were normal times, Hundred Flowers might have joined in the fun.

But with the important matter of advancing to Seventh Ring before her, she chose to seclude herself.

Twilight Temple.

The Golden Lion Knight, after advancing to Sixth Ring, began to use his Knight breathing technique to support his Wizard cultivation.

After all, he had dual-system affinity, although not top-tier talent, but relying on the accumulation of time and resources, he was now a Fourth Ring perfect Wizard.

The reason he was so persistent in cultivating the Wizard path was to learn from the leader and cultivate the path of the Bloodline Avatar to the "Primal Soul" realm. This way, he wouldn't waste his talent.

In comparison, the Black Knight and Mu Di, who had very poor talent, only cultivated it to the mid-stage Third Ring realm, mastered some practical general-purpose spells, and then gave up the Wizard path.

Continuing would not be worth the time and effort.

Middle Earth.

Twilight Temple, Middle Earth Branch.

In recent years, because of the Twilight Temple's regularization, the Dawn Tower could also legitimately recruit Knights, so it was renamed the Twilight Temple Middle Earth Branch.

The branch was rooted in Middle Earth, providing the headquarters with many outstanding talents. At the same time, the branch's base was also moved from the remote southern region to a prosperous empire in the central region, not far from Gondor Wizard City, which was also convenient for taking care of each other with the Three Heroes of Gondor City.

This day.

The back mountain of the branch's base.

The earth element power within a ten-mile radius churned.

The Black Knight, who was training the battle group, was overjoyed.

"That guy Mu Di has broken through to Sixth Ring."

Sure enough.

Above the high sky, Mu Di held the Ruyi Divine Staff in his hand, the Northern Fall Giant Ape avatar appeared behind him, the Ape King Battle Armor covered his entire body, and the soaring Battle Qi shattered the clouds, showing the demeanor of a strong man! His opponent was naturally the mountain-like Holy Ape.

The Black Knight wasn't worried about Mu Di's advancement.

These old guys had all come out step by step.

Whether it was their state of mind or their perseverance, they were far superior to ordinary people.

Mu Di had been preparing for decades to advance to Sixth Ring.

He had learned some excellent content from the Barbarian Race battle techniques such as the War King's Compendium and the Ape King Battle Canon, combined with his own insights and skills, and created the Battle God Diagram Knight battle technique, which was quite powerful. His divine weapon had also been reforged with Sixth Ring materials, so it was impossible to fail.

Before long.

After Mu Di's Battle Qi fully erupted, accompanied by a heaven-shaking strike, the staff wind shattered the Holy Ape phantom.

Mu Di closed his eyes, comprehending the benefits brought by this advancement.

Their breathing techniques didn't need to go through the Darkness Tribulation, so the difficulty was much lower than the leader's.

"Congratulations, the sixth Sixth Ring Knight of the Twilight Temple has been born!"

The Black Knight applauded.

Mu Di laughed.

"It's so shuang, this is Sixth Ring."

He waved his hand, and the power of earth element gathered, condensing on his divine weapon, shining with golden light!

Boom! With a swing of the staff, golden light burst forth, shattering the void! "What Primal Soul Wizards can do, we can do too!"

The Black Knight said:

"You should first stabilize your realm. In the near future, there may be a large-scale collective reclamation operation. Be ready to enter the Nightmare World at any time."

Mu Di rubbed his fists, eager to try.

"I can't wait any longer."

He looked towards another place of closed-door cultivation, a hint of worry in his eyes.

The Black Knight said:

"Don't worry, Aisha will be fine. Once she reaches Sixth Ring, all of us old folks will be at Sixth Ring."

Nora Year 180.

Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

After four years of closed-door cultivation, Levi emerged.

His Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique had also smoothly reached the late Sixth Ring.

The strength of his Undying Body had been enhanced once again, and the range of his Undying Divine Domain had reached 9 kilometers.

As a mythical dragon species, the Death Ember Dragon and the Golden Radiance Dragon were of the same level.

"Next, if conditions permit, I can evolve another breathing technique, striving to give birth to another mythical-grade... A'Ya has been traveling for over a hundred years, I wonder if she has gained anything."

In the Hundred Flower Hall, Elena was still in closed-door cultivation.

Clearly, advancing to Seventh Ring was not something that could be done in a short period of time, and Levi couldn't help her with it.

Even if Hundred Flowers failed to advance, he could accept it, and had prepared himself mentally.

After emerging from seclusion and discovering that Mu Di had also reached Sixth Ring, Levi was genuinely happy for him.

Thinking back to those years, he was the first to mention to Mu Di about wanting to establish the Twilight Knight Order.

More than five hundred years had passed, and things were different now! Over at the Dawn Tower, the Tower Master's work was progressing smoothly, and there were more and more excellent mechanics.

Indeed, if you want to develop quickly, you still have to rely on the power of the official side.

Ai Niya had now also chosen mechanic as her secondary path.

It is worth mentioning that.

Just last year, Ai Niya's ambiguous partner, the Child of Water Element, Phantom Witch Serra, also successfully advanced to Sixth Ring in the House of Witches, and then... moved to the Ancient Dragon Continent to live with Ai Niya, which can be considered a positive outcome.

This made the old Witch somewhat helpless.

The House of Witches was about to become shaped like the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Of course, she was not angry at all, but rather very happy.

In fact, among the six towers of the Endless Sea, the one that was doing the worst was the dogmatic House of Witches.

Because of the Witch's saying that they only accept witches, this organization missed out on many excellent members.

The Witch did not dare to violate the ancestral teachings, and also wanted to maintain the characteristics of the House of Witches.

She could only try to increase the attractiveness to witches and relax the recruitment conditions.

But the effect was not satisfactory.

Now, having a good relationship with the Ancient Dragon Continent is a roundabout way to save the country for the House of Witches.

The number of Sixth Ring powerhouses in the Ancient Dragon Continent is now even higher than that of the House of Witches.

What they lack is Seventh Ring, Eighth Ring powerhouses and the accumulation of countless years of heritage of the House of Witches.

But "heritage," sometimes, is just a fig leaf for top organizations, those who understand, understand.

Therefore, in recent years, the House of Witches has taken advantage of the situation to reach a preliminary framework agreement with the Ancient Dragon Continent, and has carried out mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation in talent training, knowledge research, and the potion industry.

Riding the coattails of their cooperation, Levi also purchased the rights to use some Primal Soul spells from the House of Witches at a discounted price.

These Primal Soul spells were limited to his and his core members' use.

After some selection, he chose two spells from the ocean school.

They were the Water Ghost's Hand and the Hand of Dryness.

Water Ghost's Hand was a top-tier spell combining ocean and shadow elements.

This spell required Levi's hand to touch the enemy to successfully cast.

Once cast, it would create a pool of water beneath the enemy's feet, summoning a shadow creature called the [Ghost of the Shadow River] to drag the target into the legendary shadow world, effectively banishing them.

The shadow world was no simple place; it wasn't a super-large plane, but it was equally mysterious and dangerous.

Although shadow school Wizards often summoned shadow monsters to the Wizard world, few ventured into the shadow world themselves, because its rules were different from, or even opposite to, those of most main material planes. Except for shadow creatures, other beings found it difficult to exert their full strength there.

Therefore, this spell seemed ordinary, but it was actually quite vicious.

Of course, if the enemy was strong enough, they could resist the Water Ghost's pull.

The Water Ghost's strength depended on the caster's mental power realm and spell proficiency.

As for the Hand of Dryness, it was an excellent-grade spell purely from the ocean school.

This spell could completely dry up the moisture in an area, including the moisture within the target's body.

If their cultivation was insufficient, they would directly turn into dried corpses.

Levi felt it was very suitable for the battlefield, and it could also be surprisingly effective in battles with powerful enemies.

He felt that since he had the quasi-spell ability inherent in his Knight breathing technique, there was no need to learn too many conventional attack spells. He should learn tricky ones that could complement his Knight abilities and avoid repetition.

After inspecting the territory, Levi held a brief Round Table Conference, ordering all battle groups, except those responsible for guarding the various organizations, to enter the Nightmare World.

According to intelligence from frontline scouts, the Seven Sins City Lord had fallen on the overlord-level high-end battlefield.

Currently, Seven Sins City only had Arrogance and Wrath, two Sixth Ring existences.

Moreover, Arrogance had suffered serious injuries and had not fully recovered to her Sixth Ring mid-stage strength.

The situation of the other generals was similar, with some dead and others wounded, all being remnants of defeated troops.

The entire Seven Sins City had, at most, ten Sixth Ring or higher-level experts.

Its overall strength had been completely overwhelmed by the Black Dragon Territory.

The war between the Khorne Overlord and the Blood Rain Overlord had also ended with the Khorne Overlord's defeat and escape.

The Blood Rain Overlord had not suffered serious injuries at all and had long recovered to his peak strength.

The Khorne Overlord was no match for him and had fallen into his trap, ultimately fleeing in disgrace.

Now, his territory was being gradually devoured by the forces under the Blood Rain Overlord.

The Blood Rain Overlord had also begun to seclude himself to recover his energy, leaving matters to be handled by the great Lords under his command.

Levi felt that this might be an opportunity to seize Seven Sins City and make it his territory.

Allowing the Black Dragon Territory to expand in one wave and collect more resources.

At the same time, it could accumulate more strength to cope with the millennium locust plague 70 years later.

On this day.

Nightmare World.

On the training grounds of the Black Dragon Territory.

One after another, burly figures began to emerge.

The Blood Apostles, Golden Lion Apostles, Black Apostles... and other apostle groups assembled in their respective formations.

They were all clad in mecha, each with its own distinctive patterns.

The mecha design styles of each apostle group were also different.

Some were rugged and barbaric, others were eerie and enchanting.

The warbands such as [Siren's Song], [Valkyrie of the End], [Giant Soldier's Roar], and [Savage Ancestors] also arrived one after another.

Levi gazed at the sea of elite warbands and the powerful Sixth Ring leaders before them, and a sense of heroism arose in his heart.

"All troops, attack! Target... Seven Sins City!"

Black Dragon Territory had been dormant for so long, recuperating and building strength. It was time to start the counterattack.

One airship after another grew larger in the wind, carrying the warband members, transforming into streaks of light, disappearing into the horizon.

Seven Sins City.

It was not peaceful at this time.

Arrogance, a general exuding a mid-Seventh Ring aura, puffed out her massive chest, raised her head, and looked at the other generals with her nostrils.

"The City Lord is dead, Arrogance should stand! I, Arrogance, will be the new City Lord, taking over all territories! Everyone present, who agrees, who opposes?"

A bald, burly man, his head steaming with anger, said furiously:

"I object! In terms of seniority, I came here earlier than you. I think I'm more suitable!"

Arrogance said coldly, "Wrath, you should know that you are no match for me."

The bald, burly man said, "Heh, if it were before, I indeed wouldn't be your opponent, but your injuries shouldn't be completely healed yet, right? Guys, do you want me, Wrath, to be the City Lord, or a conceited, arrogant bitch?"

The other generals looked at each other.

If they had a choice, they wouldn't want either of these two.

One was arrogant, and the other was volatile. Neither was good.

However, given the current situation, these generals had to choose a side.

But choosing a side was a technical skill. If they chose the wrong side, the consequences would be severe.

So, for a time, the scene fell silent, and no one dared to be the first to express their opinion.

Just then.

An ethereal voice came from the high heavens.

"Since everyone is so troubled, in order not to hurt harmony, how about I become the City Lord?"

Beneath the red and black sky, the void suddenly cracked open.

A black dragon with bared fangs and claws and shattered wings was born in the sky. It circled in the high altitude, revealing a playful gaze.

Arrogance's expression changed.

"Black Dragon Lord?"

Wrath also showed a vigilant expression.

"You are the Black Dragon Lord? Did you kill Gluttony?"

The black dragon transformed into a black-armored swordsman with his arms crossed and his cloak billowing.

Levi said:

"It wasn't me, don't talk nonsense. I'm only Sixth Ring, how could I kill a Seventh Ring?"

Lust inadvertently revealed infinite allure, giggling:

"Black Dragon Lord, how majestic. You dare to break into our Seven Sins City's den of dragons and tigers alone. Are you not planning to go back?"

Levi laughed:

"Lady Lust, that depends on whether you have the ability to keep me, Black Dragon... Besides, who said I came alone?"

As soon as he finished speaking.

On the Chaotic Wilderness outside Seven Sins City. Voids shattered in several places, forming black vortexes, and twenty airships drilled out at the same time, incredibly shocking.

All around, there were Sixth Ring auras. Some were humans, some were dragons. These auras were like wolf smoke, surrounding Seven Sins City.

Levi asked:

"Everyone, now that I'm going to be the City Lord, no problem, right?"
