Sauron Continent.
A secluded residence.
"Was Louise brought here?"
"Yes, she was."
"Lock her up."
The Golden Walker opened his eyes, a wisp of electric light crackling in the void, golden light radiating everywhere.
"This Twilight Hall Master is quite sensible, knowing not to meddle in things he shouldn't."
He already knew the whole story and was aware that the capture team had encountered the Twilight Hall Master. He felt a bit regretful.
If that Levi had interfered, he could have used the opportunity to make a big deal out of it and drag Levi down with him.
Even if he couldn't eliminate him in the end, he could at least teach him a lesson.
So that he wouldn't get too cocky just because he acquired a top-tier organization.
Of course, this is the best outcome.
He already regarded the Ancient Tomb Clan as his own opportunity and wouldn't allow anyone else to get their hands on it.
Interrogation room.
Louise looked at the figure of the blond male Wizard. Now that things had come to this, she felt calm instead.
For some reason, she, who had originally wanted to give up, chose to turn herself in after meeting the Twilight Hall Master.
The Golden Walker sighed, he slammed a stack of materials on the table and said in a disappointed tone, "Louise, when did you betray Nora? You've lived here for so long, you should know that colluding with demons is a serious crime."
Louise said:
"I didn't. Where's the evidence of me colluding with demons? I'd like to see it."
The Golden Walker said:
"Really not?"
Louise said:
"Yes."
Just as the Golden Walker was about to proceed with the next step of the interrogation, another figure opened the door and walked in. It was a young male Wizard in a blue robe, none other than the Vast Sea Traveler, the prized disciple of the Legendary Wizard, the Sea Remnant.
"Florio, you can go down first, I'll interrogate this person myself."
The Golden Walker asked, "Director, aren't you in seclusion? There's no need for you to trouble yourself with this kind of thing, I can handle it."
The Vast Sea Traveler said in an unquestionable tone, "It's fine, I'll take it from here, you go busy yourself elsewhere."
The Golden Walker glanced at Louise and left calmly, but his heart was somewhat turbulent.
He didn't understand why the Vast Sea Traveler would suddenly personally review this matter.
Could it be that he also knew about Louise's secret and wanted to get his hands on the opportunity of the Ancient Tomb Clan? If that were the case, it would be troublesome.
The next day.
The Vast Sea Traveler left the interrogation room and called the Golden Walker over.
"There's no problem with the person, there's a problem with the materials. Did you verify the authenticity of the contents of these materials one by one? There's fabrication and falsehood in one place."
The Golden Walker's expression turned cold as he looked at the materials.
"What? There's a problem with the materials? Colluding with demons is a big deal, and it happened so suddenly. I roughly reviewed them and sent people to arrest her. This was my negligence, after all, there are too many things to coordinate. I'll pay attention in the future, and I'll thoroughly investigate the people below... I was just thinking, I was the one who arranged for her to be stationed in the New Continent, and I trusted her especially. It's good that there's nothing wrong, a false alarm."
The Vast Sea Traveler didn't say anything and left calmly.
Several days later.
The Golden Walker immediately began to rectify the Bureau of Alien Affairs Administration.
He actually found several staff members colluding with demons and immediately brought them to justice and dealt with them seriously.
"Louise, you're alright now. Be more careful in the future."
The Golden Walker stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
He wasn't sure why the Vast Sea Traveler had suddenly taken an interest in investigating this matter. Louise, being a member of a foreign race, shouldn't have had the influence to move such a prominent figure. But regardless, he had no reason to keep Louise here any longer.
As for Louise's identity as a princess, he was only using it to intimidate her and didn't intend to make a real issue out of it. If other Great Wizards found out, the Ancient Tomb Clan's opportunity might vanish.
Louise asked, "Can my clansmen be released?"
The Golden Walker replied, "Rest assured, I've already released them and found them jobs. From now on, they'll have the same rights as us."
"Where?"
"They've joined the Nora Allied Forces, formed into a separate regiment, and been sent to the Darkness Zone in northern Nora to carry out the arduous task of clearing the Abyssal Wells."
Upon hearing this, Louise trembled, her eyes reddened, and a murderous aura filled the air.
The task of clearing the Abyssal Wells was essentially a suicide mission with a slim chance of survival, usually assigned to heinous criminals.
This Golden Walker wanted that group of Ancient Tomb Clan members to die.
The Golden Walker said coldly, "Were you just harboring murderous intent towards me?"
Louise replied, "No, thank you."
The Golden Walker waved his hand and said, "Go back."
He watched Louise leave, pondering in his heart.
Did the Twilight Hall Master use his connections to get the Vast Sea Traveler to come out of seclusion?
Louise had previously visited the Twilight Hall Master on the Ancient Dragon Continent, and when she was about to be killed by demons, the Twilight Hall Master happened to pass by and save her.
There was no such thing as a coincidental passing by; he must have come specifically to save her.
Could it be that Louise is planning to latch onto the Ancient Dragon Continent's coattails?
The Golden Walker considered the pros and cons, thinking about what to do next.
Ancient Dragon Continent.
Emperor Palace.
Hearing that Louise had been released, Levi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed she was indeed innocent, meaning the Golden Walker had framed her.
For a local Great Wizard, dealing with an outsider was a piece of cake.
However, the fact that the Ancient Tomb Clan refugees were assigned to a demon-extermination mission in the Darkness Zone was somewhat different from what Levi had expected. It was likely that the Golden Walker had manipulated things.
To be honest, if he hadn't wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of those dragons through Louise, Levi wouldn't have bothered with this matter at all.
On this day, he secretly met with Louise in a certain location.
"I didn't expect that you would be the daughter of the Nine Dragons Emperor."
Louise laughed self-deprecatingly, "Just a stray dog, forced to watch her clansmen die without being able to do anything. In any case, thank you for your help. I have nothing to repay you with for now, but once I get in touch with the higher-ups in my clan, I will definitely send a generous gift."
Levi said, "It is indeed difficult for you foreign races to survive in the Wizard World. Although the Ancient Dragon Continent shelters many foreign races, most of them are either those who already lived in Nora or small, insignificant clans without any foundation or background.
The Ancient Tomb Clan was once a large civilization. Even though it was destroyed, as a princess, you must have some of the Ancient Tomb's opportunities and treasures. Many people want to get their hands on them.
I'm not interested in the others. You may have heard that the Ancient Dragon Continent likes to collect dragons. I'll ask you, are the dragons that used to pull your father's chariot still alive?"
He cut straight to the point. If it was possible, he would find a way to protect Louise and the Ancient Tomb Clan. If not, then don't blame him for being heartless.
Louise's eyes flickered, and then she said, "Some have died, and some are still alive. I maintain contact with some of them."
Hearing the definite answer,
Levi stared at Louise and said,
"If you trust me, then I'll give you a chance. Sign a contract with me, and afterwards, I will do everything I can to protect you and the Ancient Tomb Clan.
I only need you to contact those dragons at the appropriate time. Don't worry, I won't hurt them.
Although I cultivate the path of the Knight, along the way, most of those I've killed have been magic dragons or Black Beast dragons."
Louise's eyes changed, her expression hesitant, as she engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
Levi turned to leave.
"You don't have to give me an answer now."
"I am willing!"
Ancient Dragon Continent.
After swearing under the Oath Sword, Louise came to the Emperor Palace.
Levi said, "Next, you will resign from your position in the New Continent, and then join the Ancient Dragon Continent. Here, no one will dare to harm you."
Louise said:
"Okay."
Levi closed his eyes and pondered.
In this way, he was openly opposing the Golden Walker, and the other party was a Great Wizard.
Although he had just been promoted, his strength still overwhelmed an ordinary Eighth Ring like himself.
Of course, since he dared to do this, he had the corresponding confidence.
First, his strength was in a period of rapid growth, and Ninth Ring was not out of reach for him. Second, he had someone behind him.
It was that simple.
No matter who was behind the Golden Walker, he had the Black Abyss Overlord behind him, already holding a trump card. No matter how big the other party was, they would only have the same card.
Most importantly, after investigation, there was nothing wrong with Louise herself. The Golden Walker had secretly framed her. It was reasonable and legal for Levi to take in Louise.
Louise suddenly said:
"You asked me before if I had any Mind-Clearing Tea tree roots. I did have some, but I gave them away." After saying that, she looked at her palm.
Levi understood.
"So the Golden Walker took the Mind-Clearing Tea tree roots. That old thing really knows how to enjoy himself."
In the following days, Louise told Levi about the situation of the Ancient Tomb Clan, especially the nine dragons.
After the Nine Dragons Emperor became Emperor, he spent ten thousand years dispatching his subordinates to travel throughout the Four Seas and Eight Desolations of the multiverse, finding nine pure-blooded dragons.
Several of them were rescued from the Dragon Spawn Venerable.
Therefore, the Dragon Spawn Venerable and the Nine Dragons Emperor had a deep-seated grudge.
After the Emperor fell, he did not let the pure-blooded dragons be buried with him, but gave them freedom to escape.
However, in the process, three were captured by the Shadow Demon Queen and her subordinates.
They were likely being transformed in the Abyss and would inevitably become magic dragons for the Abyss to use.
An important reason why the Abyss was strong was that it could corrupt other living beings.
The whereabouts of three others were unknown, and it was uncertain whether they had encountered danger.
The ones that were confirmed to still be around were Lao Ba, Lao Liu, and Lao Jiu of the Nine Dragons. Louise regarded herself as a junior and called these dragons Sixth Uncle, Eighth Uncle, and Ninth Uncle.
Lao Liu was the Frost Sky Dragon Gloucester, a legendary dragon of the frost system, currently thirty thousand years old.
Lao Ba was the Ancient Mountain Dragon Gangreit, a legendary dragon of the earth system, currently twenty-seven thousand years old.
Lao Jiu was the youngest, only twenty thousand years old, and was the Molten Gold Dragon Aiourees, a legendary dragon of the metal system.
The Copper Armor Dragon in Levi's Dragon Palace has Molten Gold Dragon bloodline. Of course, it shouldn't be Lao Jiu's.
Lao Liu and Lao Ba are currently wandering or sleeping in the pan-plane.
Relatively active, and with the best relationship with Louise, is Lao Jiu. That is her "Ninth Uncle."
Levi already has some ideas about these dragons in his heart, but his current strength is not enough to take them in. Even if the Molten Gold Dragon agrees to join, the small temple of the Ancient Dragon Continent cannot keep it.
"Louise joined the Ancient Dragon Continent?"
The Golden Walker listened to the secretary's report, his eyes gloomy.
He had already guessed that Vast Sea Traveler's sudden exit from seclusion was inseparable from the Twilight Hall Master.
But he can only swallow this loss for the time being. Some things don't weigh much until they're put on the scale, but once they are, they're too heavy to handle.
He himself has risen to this point step by step, and he already has so many messes on his body that he doesn't dare to make them public, not to mention that he did frame Louise.
He felt that Vast Sea Traveler's eyes when looking at him also noticed something.
However, he is a Great Wizard after all, and they see each other often, so Vast Sea Traveler didn't say anything.
Vast Sea Traveler probably guessed that his making things difficult for Louise might be to gain some benefits, which is not new.
Great Wizards are not desireless immortals; they can't cultivate by just eating dew.
On the contrary, many Great Wizards are busy with cultivation in seclusion, or other major events, and rarely have the opportunity to collect various cultivation resources themselves.
If they have an organization they support, they have subordinates who can show filial piety. If not, wouldn't they have to find ways to get some from others? This is difficult to prevent. Even Sauron in his time couldn't cure it.
Such is human nature.
As long as the general direction is correct, no one will pursue some small details.
The Golden Walker brewed Mind-Clearing Tea, took a small sip, and closed his eyes.
"I have always been measured in my actions, only occasionally taking some insignificant small profits, and doing things that are on the edge of what is legal and illegal. Could it be that I have gone too far this time?"
Thinking about it.
The Golden Walker hesitated. He was not afraid of the Twilight Hall Master. No matter how strong that person was, he could not be his opponent.
He was just worried that the Twilight Hall Master was doing this on the orders of a big figure behind the scenes.
Although he coveted the opportunities of the Ancient Tomb Clan, if it might threaten himself and his family, he would definitely give up as soon as possible.
Taking cultivation a step further is important.
But he is already a Great Wizard, with a Lifespan of six thousand years, above ten thousand people and below the Legendary, it is more important to protect his current life and status, otherwise all his previous efforts may be in vain.
A huge stone coffin landed not far from the Summer Flower Tower.
The houses of the Ancient Tomb Clan are coffins, a one-way trip from birth to burial, saving real estate developers from earning the difference.
Louise is an Eighth Ring powerhouse, the daughter of the Nine Dragons Emperor, and has hope to set foot in the Ninth Ring realm in the future.
Her strength is also very good, so Levi let her live near Hundred Flowers. It can play a protective role and prevent demons from attacking.
She took the initiative to visit the hostess, and smiled slightly nervously:
"Seeing is believing, Lady Elena is truly as beautiful as a flower."
Elena smiled slightly.
"Joining the Ancient Dragon Continent means we are family. If you have any questions, feel free to communicate with me. You can patrol near the Ancient Dragon Continent and take on some guarding work. Don't go too far."
Louise said:
"I understand."
Previously, the Golden Walker still had the idea of subduing her, but now that she has completely defected to the Ancient Dragon Continent, it is not impossible for the Golden Walker to become desperate and personally capture her. At that time, whether it is torture to extract a confession, or using special soul-searching methods, she will not be able to resist.
Still that sentence.
She is not a Wizard and has no backing.
Which Wizard in the Wizarding World who has reached the Eighth Ring doesn't have their own backing?
Regardless of whether they claim to be members of top-tier organizations or independent cultivators, they all have the shadow of a Great Wizard behind them to some extent.
Unless there are special circumstances, she won't leave the Ancient Dragon Continent for even half a step from now on.
In the past few hundred years, she has hunted countless demons. Now, she is among the top two hundred on the Ninth Ring Demon Slaying Ranking. Her Battle Merit is already sufficient, so it's fine if she doesn't hunt demons for a long time.
This is also what the Golden Walker is wary of. Losing a great general who hunts demons for no reason will definitely lead to an investigation by the Wizard Council, even if she is from a different race. It's just that the level of importance is not comparable to Wizards of the same realm.
Louise cherishes this opportunity to join the Ancient Dragon Continent. It's her last lifeline.
After observing for so long, she has long understood that the Twilight Hall Master is no ordinary person. Even a top-tier organization with a long history like the House of Witches wants to join him.
Following him will definitely be better than fighting alone in the Wizarding World.
Therefore, she must leave a good impression on the Twilight Hall Master. She must be useful!
She proactively visited the Twilight Temple, Dawn Tower, Giant Beast Paradise, and the high-level members of the House of Witches.
Even though the cultivation levels of these high-level members were not as high as hers, she showed a very low profile and an exceptionally good attitude.
Before long, she even volunteered to serve as the combat skills instructor for the new Knights of the Twilight Temple.
That group of Knights were all pure rookies who hadn't even reached the First Ring.
An Eighth Ring powerhouse like her, although she didn't cultivate the path of the Knight, would naturally be overqualified to teach combat skills.
Levi then had her teach higher-level Knight groups, and she could also guide the Twilight Eighteen Knights and other Sixth Ring Knights in her spare time.
Once they reached the Sixth Ring, Knights generally developed their own combat skill paths and didn't need specialized teaching, only mutual sparring and verification.
Thus,
Levi, Wind Witch Wendy, and Louise, plus the Guardian Thunder Crocodile, Brother Octopus, and Black Feather Pheasant,
the Ancient Dragon Continent had six Eighth Ring powerhouses on the surface.
Not to mention a declining top-tier organization, even some healthy ones didn't have such a luxurious lineup.
Half a year later, the Ancient Tomb Battle Group that the Golden Walker had arranged to carry out a mission with certain death was successfully brought back under Levi's operation.
They settled in the Ancient Dragon Continent and were organized into the [Ancient Tomb Battle Group], led by Louise, responsible for the security patrol of the Ancient Dragon Continent.
In the dark, he sensed a wave of hostility, and the source was self-evident.
Five years later.
Nora Calendar 760.
Bloody Battle Year 549.
House of Witches.
The Wind Witch is testing Lisa's homework. The former little girl has grown into a mature and charming woman.
Her temperament is similar to Wendy's, looking gentle and intelligent. At over forty years old, she is already a seasoned Second Ring Wizard. She has even begun preparing for her promotion to the Third Ring in advance. Among the geniuses brought out in the same period, she is far ahead, leaving everyone else in the dust.
Suddenly, Wendy's face showed joy. In a Wizard Tower, elemental power surged, and water vapor from all directions gathered into black clouds.
"Snow Lotus is finally about to reach the Seventh Ring."
Beautiful Witches with all kinds of charm and recognizable appearances flew out to witness the birth of the Seventh Ring Wizard. Triss also looked over from the laboratory.
The Snow Lotus Witch took a deep breath, exuding the aura of a Seventh Ring Wizard. Behind her, the Wizard Avatar, like a giant snow lotus, stood tall, holy and beautiful.
The Wind Witch smiled:
"Seventh Ring, almost catching up to your mother. It's a pity your father can't see it. Alas, he left too early."
The Snow Lotus Witch's father was an Eighth Ring Wizard, the leader of a high-level Wizard organization, who died in the Bloody Battle a few years ago.
Therefore, Wendy and Triss have a good relationship because they are both Primal Soul Witches raising children alone.
Moreover, Ai Niya and the Snow Lotus Witch are both excellent and successfully formed their Primal Souls.
The Snow Lotus Witch hugged her mother, and for a moment, her heart was filled with emotions.
Wendy smiled and said,
"Snow Lotus's breakthrough deserves celebration. Let's have a small team-building event for our House of Witches."
The Cat Witch, who had watched the Snow Lotus Witch grow up since she was a child, also said, "Yes, you are now a Seventh Ring Wizard, with a Lifespan of three thousand years. You still have nearly two thousand years of life ahead of you. There's no need to rush. It's time to find a partner."
When the Snow Lotus Witch was at the Sixth Ring, Wendy and her late husband had already started urging her to marry. After all, Snow Lotus was her most outstanding descendant.
At that time, they also asked matchmakers to arrange marriages with geniuses from top organizations like Hurricane Tower and Seven Waters Tower.
However, the Snow Lotus Witch had her own ideas. She was also a Primal Soul Wizard, capable of making her own decisions. Although the couple was anxious, there was nothing they could do.
"Serena, you're still talking about the younger generation. You're almost two thousand years old, what are you planning to do by staying single?"
Triss appeared, looking at her former friend, and couldn't help but say.
The Cat Witch said,
"I'm not in a hurry. Aren't you single too?"
Triss laughed and scolded.
"I have Ai Niya to carry on my family line, what do you have? You've been playing around for almost two thousand years, you can't go on like this. There are so many excellent male Knights on the Ancient Dragon Continent."
The Cat Witch was somewhat moved by these words, but she still joked, "I've taken a fancy to the Fire Dragon Knight, will you help me talk to him?"
Triss thought that this was indeed a bit difficult, but she still said:
"I can say a few good words for you, but whether it works out or not depends on your own abilities."
The Cat Witch quickly said, "No, I'm just kidding. How could a supernova like him take a fancy to me?"
The males of the Ancient Dragon Continent.
Apart from the already taken Twilight Hall Master, the most outstanding ones were undoubtedly the high-level members of those organizations.
Among them, the Fire Dragon Knight, bursting with male hormones, was definitely a hot commodity. But he was too dazzling, so much so that the Cat Witch, despite being a Seventh Ring Wizard, had no thoughts about him.
Seeing that everyone had suddenly started discussing marriage, the Snow Lotus Witch fell silent.
She remembered her deceased father and did not choose to refuse this time.
Perhaps it was time for her to find a partner to spend the rest of her life with.
Supporting each other and stepping into better realms would also be excellent, like the Extremity Knight and the Hundred Flower Knight.
Emperor Palace.
Upon hearing of the Snow Lotus Witch's breakthrough, Levi and Hundred Flowers also showed joy.
"We've found another reason for a matchmaking event. We must make a match this time."
"That's right... Speaking of which, what do you think of the Blood Knight? Would he be a good match for the Snow Lotus Witch? I don't know much about Snow Lotus, but I think her character should be good."
"Pretty good, both of them have very kind personalities. If they were together, although it might be a bit boring and dull, they should be able to treat each other with respect."
"What about the Leopard Witch? I heard her partner also fell in the Bloody Battle, so she's in a window of opportunity."
"That's not very good."
Because of the Bloody Battle, the House of Witches was becoming a house of widows.
Just from what Levi knew, there were Triss, Wendy, and the Leopard Witch Nico among the Primal Soul Wizards.
That night.
At a small matchmaking event within the Ancient Dragon Continent, Levi and Elena, like parents, watched the young talents interacting and getting to know each other, feeling quite pleased.
Over at Dawn Tower.
Thunder Blade Si Ta, a senior Sixth Ring cultivator and Solett's disciple, Heart Moon Spirit Witch Natasha, Sakura Witch, and other Primal Souls born from these organizations, came if they were free.
Twilight Temple.
The Temple Knights or Twilight Eighteen Knights who had no missions for the time being all came.
After all, it was the Hall Master who personally summoned them, so how could they dare not show face? Moreover, everyone was too tired from fighting and cultivating every day, and they really needed to relax.
The Blood Knight and the Fire Dragon Knight exchanged their experiences after advancing to the Seventh Ring as soon as they met.
They often spar in the Nightmare World as well. The battle between the Jade Qilin and the Sun Chasing Dragon is incredibly exciting. If they don't use Giant means, the strength of the Blood Knight and the Fire Dragon Knight isn't that different.
Even the Lizardmen from the Giant Beast Paradise and the Ancient Dragon Empire come to join in the fun.
The alien races are treated equally. Anyone who is free and wants to come is welcome. The White Wolf girl, who loves excitement, also came.
Louise sat alone to the side, gazing at the bonfire, probably homesick. Elena, worried about her loneliness, took the initiative to chat with her, gently saying, "How have you been feeling lately?"
"Very well, thank you for your concern, Madam. Everyone has been taking good care of me."
The girls from the House of Witches also descended, half-hidden, either excited or shy.
Wendy, along with the Snow Lotus Witch, took the initiative to greet the knights present.
Although she is an Eighth Ring Wizard, she doesn't put on any airs. In recent years, the Knights have talents like the Twilight Hall Master and the Fire Dragon Knight, making it a popular profession.
If her daughter could happily marry one of the Twilight Eighteen Knights, she would be overjoyed.
Everyone knows that the Twilight Eighteen Knights are veterans who have been with the Twilight Hall Master since the beginning. Regardless of their cultivation level, their status in the Ancient Dragon Continent is definitely not low.
Moreover, being valued by the Twilight Hall Master and selected for the Twilight Eighteen Knights means they are all extraordinary individuals.
Watching everyone speak freely and chat enthusiastically, Levi felt very gratified.
He hoped that tonight's social event would be an opportunity to facilitate more in the future, to produce more talents for the Ancient Dragon Continent, preferably second or third children.
As for the rest, he wouldn't interfere too much; love is free.
After the banquet, he noticed that the Fire Dragon Knight seemed interested in Louise, and his lips would unconsciously turn up when chatting with her.
"Hmm... the Ancient Tomb Clan? Not bad. Louise is the daughter of an Emperor, with limitless potential. The mixed-blood offspring born from a strong alliance should be good. Maybe they can inherit the Ancient Tomb Clan's throne in the future."
The next day.
Everyone returned to their posts, having added each other's contact information. It was a successful social event, and Levi decided to hold one every year if he could find the time.
Feelings are cultivated. How can you find a partner if you're always cooped up at home? ...
One year later.
Nora Calendar 550.
Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique at its limit.
Levi had already prepared the Eighth Ring Bloodline Essence, with the main ingredients coming from the Black Phoenix and the Eighth Ring Fire Dragon Bloodline Essence he exchanged in the Bloody Battle Shop.
The Armor of Immortality had already been reforged with Eighth Ring Elemental Metal. With everything ready, Levi immediately began his seclusion.
The advancement of the Death Ember Dragon would inevitably bring about a qualitative leap in his physique and life-saving abilities, making it of paramount importance.
Time flies.
Two years later, accompanied by the disappearance of an innocent island, Levi skillfully passed the calamity of the Death Ember Dragon.
The Bloodline Tribulation goes without saying. The Darkness Tribulation was a sudden Ninth Ring wind disaster, which Levi encountered for the first time.
This was the highest level of wind disaster, posing some danger even to Eighth Ring Wizards.
The most deadly thing was...
Hidden within the wind disaster was actually a Wind Demon. This was the Abyss's most famous wind-type demon, and like the Flame Demons, the clan had produced many strong individuals. There were quite a few Tenth Ring existences, the strongest being the Wind Demon Lord, the Bloody Battle Commander-in-Chief.
Of course, the final result was still a thrilling but safe passage. The demon was killed by Levi, who conveniently sent tens of millions of Battle Merit points to his account.
Levi couldn't tell anymore whether these demons really wanted to assassinate him or were affected by the Darkness Tribulation.
If this continued, would they directly send Ninth Ring demons for suicide attacks? Emperor Palace.
Levi opened the Proficiency Panel.
Levi ————————
Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique: Twentieth Order (1/20,000,000), Special Effect: Death Ember Dragon Body · Mythical Grade (Eighth Ring Initial Stage), Bloodline Avatar: Nirvana Dragon; Blood Source True Armor: Death Ember Dragon Armor; Exclusive Weapon: Armor of Immortality (Eighth Ring); Bloodline Divine Mark: 22/66. Bloodline Secret Word: Undying (As long as one thought remains, the Life Fire will not be extinguished)
This advancement of the Death Ember Dragon to the Eighth Ring, overall, was not as transformative as the Scarlet Dragon evolving into the Extremely Dark Dragon. Other abilities were only improvements on the original foundation.
The Undying Body became advanced, Nirvana Second Rebirth became Nirvana Third Rebirth, the diameter of the Undying Divine Domain reached the Mythical Grade Breathing Technique standard of 80 kilometers, and there was no need to say more.
The abilities of the Ash Lord and the Netherworld Lord have also improved, but neither is a qualitative change, and they are of little use to Levi as he is now.
The most important thing is naturally the Bloodline Secret Word.
The Undying Secret Word is composed of the Body Secret Word and the Flame True Word.
As long as one thought does not cease, the Life Fire will not be extinguished!
Above Levi's head.
A wisp of invisible fire that only he can see is burning.
"Is this the Life Fire?"
Life Fire, the fire of life, is a very abstract concept. After the Death Ember Dragon reaches the Eighth Ring, the biggest change is that Levi can see the Life Fire above his head.
As long as this Life Fire does not go out, he will not die. And as long as his consciousness is still there, even if it is an extremely weak trace, his Life Fire will not be extinguished.
This is a difficult state to describe. To put it in an inappropriate analogy, it is similar to: I think, therefore I am.
As long as the enemy cannot completely annihilate all of his physical body and soul in an instant, and erase his consciousness in an instant, then Levi will not die. His Life Fire is still there, and he can quickly rely on the Death Ember Dragon's ability to reshape his body.
His advanced Undying Body ability can already achieve true Blood Rebirth.
As a dual cultivator of the Knight and Wizard paths, his consciousness is both in the soul within the Primal Soul, and also in every drop of blood, every cell, omnipresent, everywhere is him.
If the enemy wants to completely obliterate his consciousness in an instant, unless their strength far exceeds his, they cannot do it.
Not to mention, Levi also has the Death Ember Divine Palace as a save-like method. Now that he has advanced to the Eighth Ring, the number of saves is as high as 4 times.
Looking at the Life Fire above his head, Levi suddenly had some understanding.
"Isn't this just a health bar? Advanced Undying Body makes me like a data character in a game, there is no so-called fatal place, even if I get stabbed in the head, it only loses a little health.
And the Undying Secret Word is to crush all my life, consciousness, body, soul and other things, and transform them into a Life Fire similar to a health bar.
This health bar is still divided into stages. If you can't kill me in multiple stages at the same time, then I can recover instantly, restoring to full health.
The Death Ember Divine Palace is a resurrection point or save point, and the Nirvana Three Rebirths is the last safety net.
If the above three methods are useless, and I really die... I can still be reborn three times with my memory, which is equivalent to unarchived restart.
With such heavy additions, as long as I am always careful and develop the good virtue of saving at any time, this real world is almost the same as a game for me.
Even a Ninth Ring Wizard should not be able to easily kill me.
However, Great Wizards have mastered the ability to annihilate matter into elemental particles, so they cannot be underestimated."
In his previous life, there were often jokes.
"As long as the health bar lights up, I will kill even a god for you."
In fact, lighting up the health bar is the most terrifying thing. This means that Levi and ordinary creatures are no longer in the same dimension. He is like a stream of data, directly quantumly immortal.
However, although the Undying Secret Word gave him the ability of immortality, it did not give him the means of "eternal youth."
Before the laws of life and death reincarnation, he still has Lifespan limitations. This is the Sword of Damocles directly hanging over the heads of all living beings.
It is a higher-dimensional truth strike, invisible and intangible, but it affects all living beings, and no one can be an exception.
"But it's best if I don't have to use the Death Ember Dragon's abilities after all. I am not invincible in the world after all. In the transcendent world, there are countless methods beyond my imagination, and there is always someone better."
Levi closed the panel.
Now, only the Nightmare Dragon Breathing Technique has not reached its limit, but it is not far away.
As of now, he has mastered three Nightmare Dragon races. The Infant Dragon is not worth mentioning, it is too weak.
The remaining ones are the Golden Spear, which recently advanced to the Seventh Ring peak, and the pure-blooded dragon race, the Khorne Overlord.
Honestly, except for those hard-to-control Demon Dragons, even if he finds a new Nightmare Lord, Levi doesn't want to kill them.
But now his Bloodline path can only be like this, it is really helpless.
"I'm about to advance to the Ninth Ring. The Ninth Ring is a key point. The Bloodline path may usher in a change here. I hope to gradually get rid of this Bloodline dependence and shackles."
Right now, he still has to continue searching for Nightmare Dragon races.
After breaking through, Levi returned to the Emperor Palace to consolidate his realm, while Elena was busy with matters concerning the Wizard Tower.
In the years that Louise had resided in the Ancient Dragon Continent, the Golden Walker had not come to cause trouble, which relieved Levi.
Over the years, Elena and Louise had developed a good relationship, evolving into a new sisterhood.
Whenever Elena made progress in refining her Wizard Tower, she would spar and battle with Louise in the Nightmare World.
She was now nearing the Seventh Ring completion, and with her increasingly perfected Wizard Tower, as well as her two symbiotic spiritual objects, her normalized strength allowed her to exchange hundreds of blows with ordinary Eighth Ring Wizards without issue.
Over at the House of Witches.
Triss was in charge of the development and research of the three major potion projects: [Nightmare Sequence Seventh Ring Breakthrough Potion], [Millennial Lifespan Extension Potion], and [Witch Mark Reversal Potion]. It could be said that she had been extremely busy these years.
Later, she saved up the billion-plus that Levi had lent her and returned it to him.
This left Levi quite helpless, as he felt like a hands-off shopkeeper and felt a little guilty. However, he couldn't think of a good way to repay Triss, since she wasn't short of money. He could only look for opportunities in the future.
Of course, he was still very good to Ai Niya. Whenever Ai Niya had good research results in the Mechanical School, he would find reasons to have cultivation resources, or even wonders of the metal school, sent over to help the young man cultivate.
After all, they had been friends for a thousand years, and he had watched Ai Niya grow up as Triss's child.
Ai Niya's talent was already good, and under Levi's fatherly glow, his cultivation was naturally not slow. He had already advanced to the Sixth Ring completion Wizard.
For him, advancing to the Seventh Ring Wizard and enjoying a three-thousand-year Lifespan was not a big problem. The Eighth Ring would depend on luck.
In general, he was still a notch below his mother, Triss.
Triss was already very satisfied with Ai Niya's performance. After all, he was not a top genius, but only had dual-system affinity plus a special metal talent.
These years.
Driven by the Mechanical School, the development of the Dawn Tower was very fast, even faster than the Twilight Temple.
After all, Wizards already had a completely mature system. As long as enough talents and resources were guaranteed, they could develop quickly without taking detours.
The development of the Twilight Temple was accompanied by constant exploration and trial and error.
Tower Master Stella recently advanced to the Seventh Ring level. She was a backbone member of the Mechanical School and the female robot behind Herman.
Jialuona also advanced to the Sixth Ring senior realm. Her husband, Dark Moon Knight, chose the path of evolution.
To prevent failing the tribulation without leaving descendants to accompany Jialuona, and to continue the bloodline of the Dark Moon Knight Hodgson family, the couple had a pair of twin babies, a boy and a girl, last year, named Pu Lai De and Mo La Na.
Pu Lai De possessed the Dark Moon bloodline and would inevitably inherit the mantle of the Hodgson family in the future, embarking on the path of the Knight.
Mo La Na possessed the Dark Moon bloodline, dual-system affinity, and the special talent [Night Shadow Song].
This was a very good Shadow School talent. Not long after learning this news, Aya, who had been wanting to find a disciple to inherit her shadow Knowledge, came to the door, wanting to take Mo La Na as her disciple.
Being accepted as a student by a supernova, the couple naturally agreed. When Mo La Na grew older, they would send her to the Dawn Tower for further study.
Of course, they also hoped that the little girl could also cultivate both the path of the Knight, which would inevitably be very tiring, but if she succeeded, she could achieve extraordinary achievements like Steel Dragon Knight Andrew.
The final decision was still in Mo La Na's hands.
Aya, as a supernova, was also very strict with herself.
She was not old, less than a thousand years old, and already at the Sixth Ring completion. Her Lifespan was still very long. The Shadow School's competition was average. As a supernova, she had abundant Battle Merit. She had used Battle Merit to refine many Morning Star and even Full Moon Wonders.
Therefore, her Wizard Mark standard was at least 15, and then she would see if she should pursue 22 depending on the situation.
Others like Sakura Witch were also at the Sixth Ring senior level, taking a further step on the path of the Wizard.
