Eternal Star Abyss
"Another century has passed..."
Levi gazed at Elena.
Time hadn't left too many marks on her.
Elena's mentality was forever young and cheerful.
"How is your Wizard cultivation?"
"I have eighteen Seventh Ring Wizard Marks now."
"Not bad, strive to advance to Eighth Ring this century."
"Before that, I want to evolve my Mythic-grade Breathing Technique first."
Levi stood up, taking Elena's hand as they left the Emperor Palace.
Elena's cultivation wasn't slow.
She was only a little over sixteen hundred years old, and she cultivated in three paths simultaneously.
Even with the Water God Body, she couldn't achieve it in one fell swoop.
Unlike Triss, she didn't have to worry about Lifespan.
There was no need to rush her advancement; slow and steady wins the race.
Once everything was prepared, success would come naturally.
The Full Moon Wonder [Eye of the Sea Emperor] that Levi brought out from the ancient tower, she hadn't refined yet.
She would wait until after the Eighth Ring to avoid wasting the opportunity to enhance her mental strength.
After leaving, the two saw Triss and Wendy arriving together.
Triss had already stabilized her Eighth Ring realm.
Her current focus was on researching the Thousand Year Potion and the Nightmare Sequence Eighth Ring breakthrough potion.
Right now, she was wholeheartedly focused on research and potions, with no time for anything else.
Ai Niya, her good son, had already been thrown to the back of her mind.
Fortunately, Levi remembered his old friend Ai Niya.
After Wendy and the Blood Knight reorganized their family, she became even more cheerful.
Not long ago, she advanced to the Eighth Ring Completion realm, and her strength increased once again.
Her ranking on the Demon Slaying Ranking had also broken into the top fifty, a powerful rise.
This forced the Wizard World to re-recognize this old generation's top genius who had once stirred up storms.
On the Star Ranking, she was ranked among the top three Wizards below the Ninth Ring in the Storm Faction.
Being able to break into the top three of the four major factions, the name of supernova was well-deserved.
Facts proved that as long as one seized the opportunity.
"The remnants of the old era" could also shine in the new era.
Currently, the only thing Wendy was concerned about was her daughter and son-in-law who were wandering outside.
Fortunately, the Ash Knight would report his safety to his "father-in-law," the Blood Knight, every year.
"Is Wendy also going to the auction?" Levi asked.
"Yes, preparing for the advancement to the Ninth Ring early," Wendy said with a smile.
Advancing to the Ninth Ring was undoubtedly more complicated and required early preparation.
The four of them went to Sauron Continent together.
After eight hundred years of Bloody Battle, Levi's friends were all over Nora.
Coming and going were familiar Wizards, including many supernovas.
Everyone greeted each other with smiles.
This atmosphere filled Levi with emotion.
The Bloody Battle had both advantages and disadvantages, bringing destruction while also bringing the Wizards closer together.
Only when facing a common enemy could people be so harmonious, even setting aside past grievances.
Of course, this was also related to the explosive increase in resources due to the great convergence of planes.
In this era, as long as you were willing to work hard, you could always find your own opportunities.
Especially with the emergence of the Bloody Battle Shop, the gathered resources were distributed according to Battle Merit.
The monopoly of top organizations was also gradually being broken.
As long as a Wizard yearned for progress, they had to go into battle and kill enemies.
Otherwise, over time, they would be abandoned by the Wizard Council, by civilization, and by the era!
Not long after, the auction began.
The first item was a Truth Wonder.
"Morning Star Wonder [Fire God's Fang], starting price 500 million Great Stones..."
As a Combustion Faction Wonder, more than ten Primal Soul Wizards competed fiercely on the spot.
In the end, Levi won it for 2 billion Great Stones, which was already beyond the value of a Morning Star Wonder.
This was his bottom line; he wouldn't buy it if it went any higher, and it would be better to try his luck in the Dark Ancient Tower.
Right from the start, he spent lavishly.
When everyone saw it was Levi, they felt it was only natural.
He was a "regular" at the Bloody Battle Auction.
The kind who contributed an average of 10 billion GDP to the Wizard Council each time.
Including this latest Wonder, he had already collected four-sevenths of the Holy Infant's Fire God Sequence.
Levi had also refined the Morning Star Wonder [Red Dragon Horn] that he brought out from the Dark Ancient Tower.
It enhanced his mental strength and Fire Element affinity talent a bit, but nothing else was worth mentioning.
So far, he had collected three-fifths of the Red Dragon Sequence, and no accompanying spiritual object had yet been born.
The auction lasted for a day, and Levi transformed into a ruthless money-spending machine.
In the end, this auction broke the record again, spending 27 billion Great Stones.
This left the other Wizards in awe.
The organizers were overjoyed and were extremely considerate to Levi.
The bulk of this expenditure came from a fossilized Rare Wood that was a hundred thousand years old, called [Flame Scale Wood].
Levi competed with several Eighth Ring Wizards from the Combustion Faction, raising the price to 15 billion.
For Levi, Rare Wood was rarer than Truth Wonders, something that could only be encountered by chance.
No matter the cost, he had to obtain it.
Flame Scale Wood could be used to refine the [Scorched Flame Wood] needed for a Wizard Tower.
Scorched Flame Wood was a Rare Wood that had sunk into magma and formed by chance, resembling charcoal in appearance.
It was worth mentioning that this Rare Wood came from the [Flame Mountain World].
Not long ago, this world had also merged into Nora.
As far as Levi knew, apart from a few remote plane federations, such as the [Myriad Machine Plane].
Other planes had already returned to Nora, and the demons on them had been cleared by the Wizard Council.
Levi also spent 3 billion Great Stones to buy a potion formula.
It was called "Thousand Mountains Potion", a Ninth Ring breakthrough potion with a 12% success rate.
The price of the Ninth Ring potion formula was cheaper than Levi had imagined.
In fact, the Potion Makers' Association also provides free Ninth Ring potion recipes.
Anyone with the hope of advancing to the Ninth Ring is a key cultivation target of the Wizard Council.
The Wizard Council doesn't want knowledge monopolies to create additional obstacles for wizards breaking through to the Ninth Ring.
But the price of obtaining a free recipe is to make an oath.
The content is roughly that you must never betray the Wizard Council or the wizard civilization.
With the case of [Dark Emperor Astar], this traitor to civilization, as a precedent.
The Wizard Council's control over channels for advancing to Great Wizard is extremely strict.
In principle, Levi would not betray the wizard civilization.
But his own safety is always his top priority.
If he encounters some irresistible force, he can't guarantee that he can die for the civilization.
Therefore, his principle is to never make oaths that might dig a pit for himself.
Triss said that the old Witch advanced to Great Wizard with a recipe provided by the Wizard Council.
Even the Holy Medicine was obtained by the old Witch with the help of the Wizard Council.
So the old Witch signed a series of strict contracts.
The Wizard Council cannot cultivate ingrates.
Levi feels that this approach is very reasonable... but he doesn't accept it.
Because that's his personality, he doesn't want to be restricted.
He can do good deeds and help the Wizard Council and the civilization.
All of this is based on his own willingness.
So whether it's a recipe or a Holy Medicine, he will find a way to get it himself.
For Ninth Ring breakthrough potions, a success rate of over 10% is first-class.
12% is already top-tier.
The main ingredient required for the Thousand Mountains Potion recipe is any kind of Earth-attribute Holy Medicine.
Levi's Serpent Tail Grass is perfectly acceptable.
The auxiliary materials include nearly thirty Primal Soul-level materials, ranging from Sixth Ring to Ninth Ring.
The refining process involves a dozen steps and hundreds of incantations, which is quite complex.
Levi looked at it and found that he already had two-thirds of the materials.
The remaining materials don't seem too difficult either.
Of course, because of Levi's multi-faction characteristics.
He also needs to collect three additional Holy Medicines.
With the Dark Ancient Tower, solving these is just a matter of time.
He has only developed a small portion of the resources on the eighth floor.
Each exploration brings many new gains.
Levi is full of confidence in this.
To advance to the Ninth Ring and increase the success rate, three major preparations are needed.
The first is to prepare a breakthrough Holy Medicine, which can assist in shaping the Elemental Saint Body and Saint Soul.
The increase in success rate varies depending on the potion, but is generally around 10%.
The second is to use the [Elemental Saint Spirit Magic Array] to fixedly increase the success rate by 5%.
This Eighth Ring Magic Array can also assist in the elementalization of the Primal Soul and body.
The House of Witches has a ready-made Magic Array, so Levi doesn't need to prepare it.
In addition, in Sauron Continent, one can also rent official Magic Arrays for free.
Similarly, one needs to make similar vows as when obtaining recipes.
Running this Magic Array also requires preparing about 10 billion Great Stones.
This isn't a problem for Levi.
Thirdly, one needs a [Star Spirit Heart] and a large piece of [Starfall Remains].
The Starfall Remains are relatively common, and Levi already has a large piece.
Star Spirit Hearts are strange crystals formed after the death of planes that are no more than ten thousand years old.
In other words, they are spiritual substances formed after the tragic death of a "plane embryo."
These things often contain the spirit of the plane's will.
One can understand that Starfall Remains are the flesh of a plane, and Star Spirit Hearts are the soul of a plane.
Refining the two with special methods allows them to blend harmoniously within the body.
This allows one to open up a [Half-Plane Prototype] within the Wizard's body.
In fact, the difference between a Legendary Wizard and a Plane Dominator lies in this.
A Plane Dominator seems to dominate a plane, but is actually an appendage of the plane and is subject to its limitations.
On the other hand, with a Legendary Wizard, the plane is an appendage of the Wizard.
The Half-Plane Prototype during the Great Wizard stage is just a chaotic embryo.
Only upon advancing to a Legendary Wizard can one "create the world" and reshape the "Earth-Fire Wind-Water".
This then gives birth to the Legendary Half-Plane we often talk about.
This third preparation can also permanently increase the success rate by 5%.
In other words, as long as the aforementioned three tasks are done well.
The success rate of advancing to Ninth Ring will increase by about 20%.
Of course, one can forcibly advance without preparing.
In ancient times, many Wizards came this way, relying on luck to get it done.
The first two are fine and don't have much impact.
If the third item is not prepared, the cost is not having a [Plane Prototype] in the body.
And not having a Half-Plane at the Legendary stage, making one's combat power weaker than others.
Star Spirit Hearts are hard to come by.
Some Great Wizards who are in a hurry will indeed advance without preparing the third item.
For example, the old Witch did not prepare this item.
With her conditions, being able to successfully become a Great Wizard was already difficult, so she didn't expect to become a Legendary Wizard.
In addition to this, there are many other factors that determine the success rate of advancing to Great Wizard.
The most important ones are the following:
First: Wizard talent.
Needless to say, Wizard talent is the foundation that comprehensively affects a Wizard's entire life of cultivation.
Second: Wizard foundation.
The more talent spells and Primal Soul spells one masters, the more Wizard Marks one imprints, and the more Knowledge one possesses.
Then the Wizard's foundation will naturally be stronger.
Speaking of which, Eighth Ring Wizards are almost all equipped with nine talents as standard.
If one can't even achieve this, the probability of reaching the door of Great Wizard is almost zero.
Third: Mental Strength limit.
Under the same cultivation level, higher spiritual power means more spell power and greater strength.
The success rate of transcending the Ninth Ring Calamity naturally increases.
From the above, it can be seen that advancing to Great Wizard is a systematic process.
Those who do their best in every aspect and every step are more likely to succeed.
For Levi, what he needs to focus on preparing are Holy Medicine and the Star Spirit Heart.
All other auxiliary materials can be left to the organization members to complete.
There is currently no fixed exchange channel for the Star Spirit Heart.
On the one hand, he can only wait for large auctions, and on the other hand, he can have the Spider King search in the Darkness Zone.
In fact, Levi has another way.
Find a way to integrate the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm into his body and use it as a demiplane in the future.
However, in practice, there are still many difficulties and problems.
It can only be said to be a last resort.
In general, Levi believes that he can definitely solve it.
Others can advance to Great Wizard, so isn't his condition a natural progression? Moreover, the official organization must have stockpiled such materials.
It's just that some constraints are needed to provide them to Wizards.
Now that he thinks about it, the Wizard Council has a strong control over most Great Wizards.
That's probably the reason.
Levi bought 4 billion worth of various herbs, ores, and other materials.
Finally, he bought 5 Darkness Treasure Maps.
Adding to the previous auction, he now has a total of 9 treasure maps.
He plans to accumulate more and then take the time to go treasure hunting.
He didn't buy much other spell Knowledge.
He is now focused on getting Knowledge for free.
The once-in-a-century memory blind box, plus what the organization members have obtained through various channels, is already enough.
Last time at the Netherworld Market, he had a great burst of luck with the 100,000 blind boxes.
He directly drew 9 types of Sixth Ring or higher combat skills and spells.
After saying goodbye to various friends at the auction.
The group hurried back to Ancient Dragon Continent.
Having obtained the Scorched Flame Wood, Levi wants to refine it into the Wizard Tower as soon as possible.
In this way, the four basic forces of Earth-Fire Wind-Water in the tower space are only lacking "Wind".
Elena also went into seclusion.
She also had a good harvest at the Bloody Battle auction.
First, she spent 2.3 billion to get an Eighth Ring Void Orb.
Then, she spent 2.9 billion to bid on a Morning Star Strange Object, the Water God Bracelet.
Generally speaking, the value of a Morning Star Strange Object is only about a billion or so.
Under normal circumstances, Levi and his wife would be reluctant to buy it.
But this bracelet is the last piece of the Water God Sequence.
Elena gritted her teeth and bought it.
Plus the Water God Ring that Levi gave her.
Water God Sequence, declared complete.
Of course, Elena hasn't refined these two Morning Star Wonders yet.
She plans to refine them along with the [Eye of the Sea Emperor] after reaching the Eighth Ring.
Some time later, Levi also prepared the potion for Elena's advancement to the Eighth Ring.
His avatars and close relatives never lack top-quality breakthrough potions.
Everything is ready, only the advancement is left.
Triss's main purpose for this trip was to purchase some potion-making raw materials.
She spent a full 6 billion Great Stones for this.
This profoundly illustrates what it means to be a rich woman dedicated to the cause of potion making.
Of course, after these raw materials are refined into potions and sold,
they can bring Triss double the profit.
In addition, Triss also spent 4.6 billion Great Stones to acquire a Full Moon Wonder.
This wonder looks like a toad, with bumps all over its back and crimson moon patterns on its neck.
During the auction, because many people were unsure what this wonder was, they were afraid to bid.
Levi didn't know either, because it wasn't recorded in the Strange Object Illustrated Handbook.
But based on his past experience, he told Triss that
the stranger the wonder, the better the refining effect often is.
And naming it based on its appearance, he called it the [Red Moon Treasure Toad].
Triss also spent 10 billion Great Stones at this auction.
Her extravagance was second only to Levi.
This made Elena deeply realize that knowledge can lead to wealth.
As for Wendy, she exchanged a wind-type wonder to enhance her Wind God Body.
Twilight Temple.
After a long period of seclusion, the Golden Lion Knight is finally about to undergo his tribulation.
The bloodlines he used for this evolution include Dragon Eagle, Silver Horn Behemoth, and Dark Giant Tiger.
The Dragon Eagle goes without saying, it is the source of the Feather Knight's bloodline.
Its shape is similar to an eagle, but it can kill pure-blooded dragons and has immense strength.
The Silver Horn Behemoth is a giant beast similar to a buffalo, with beautiful silver horns.
These horns contain an extremely rare characteristic: [Star Devouring].
Some Tenth Ring powerhouses like to cut off its original horns to make weapons.
The [Star Devouring] characteristic can damage the Divine Fire source of the Star Realm, it is simply a divine treasure.
Divine Fire is the core of the gods, if the Divine Fire does not go out, the gods will not die.
If the Divine Fire is injured, their strength will also be damaged.
Those powerful gods are fine, their Divine Fire is as strong as a furnace, and the impact is not significant.
Some weaker gods, their Divine Fire is as weak as a bonfire on a rainy night, and cannot withstand destruction at all.
Therefore, the Star Realm almost wiped out all Silver Horn Behemoths.
They even destroyed the weapons containing the [Star Devouring] characteristic that they had scavenged.
The Silver Horn Behemoth also eventually became extinct, and has not been seen for 100,000 years.
The Golden Lion Knight obtained this item thanks to the demons.
A demon lord's mount was a Seventh Ring demonic bull.
A Divine Light Knight was ambushed by it while out on patrol, and then, as expected, he counter-killed it.
Later, it was discovered to contain the bloodline of a Silver Horned Behemoth, perfect for the husband to use for evolution.
The Dark Giant Tiger is a legendary beast that dwells in the Darkness Zone.
They are quite active now, often lying in ambush in the darkness to hunt down passing experts.
The day the Golden Lion Knight broke through.
His second daughter, Lai Ya, already over six hundred years old, and his youngest son, Lai De, both came.
Lai De was already a Sixth Ring Wizard, and the Peacock Knight Lai Ya was now also a Fifth Ring Peak Knight.
His eldest daughter, Lai Na, had fallen in the Bloody Battle a few years ago, dying young.
Parting from life and death sometimes happens so suddenly.
However, as long-lived transcendents, they were all mentally prepared.
It did not bring any adverse effects to the Golden Lion Knight's cultivation.
With Primal Soul, Wizard Marks, and many other methods in hand.
The Lion King Divine Canon had also reached its peak.
The Golden Lion Knight passed through the calamity without any real danger.
A thousand-meter giant beast with a golden base and black spots, a mane around its neck, a tiger-like tail, and two horns on its head descended from the sky. It was scarred and panting like a bull, and it was the mythical form of the Golden Lion Knight.
After resting, the giant beast transformed into a human form and came before Levi.
"Congratulations, Father," Lai De and Lai Ya congratulated.
The Divine Light Knight just looked at her husband with a smile, filled with indescribable emotion and relief.
"Sorry to trouble you, Tower Master, I have lived up to my mission, please bestow a name, Tower Master."
At some point, it had become a custom for Levi to name new breathing techniques as they were created.
This made him feel a little like Alexander.
His name reserve was running out.
He looked up at the high sky, as if recalling something, and then said:
"Zou Wu, perhaps."
The Golden Lion Knight murmured:
"Zou Wu Breathing Technique? Tower Master, does this have any special meaning?"
"This is a righteous beast, representing that the friendship of our Twilight Temple will last forever and never be destroyed."
Mu Di, who was watching the battle from afar, said, "A good name, not inferior to my Zhu Yan."
The Blood Knight said, "Qilin, Zou Wu, Zhu Yan, Sun Chaser, Star Butterfly, Behemoth... Good, there are more and more mythical creatures. The future Nora World will be very exciting."
Mu Di said, "Don't forget that the Tower Master still has six more..."
The Black Knight said, "We old guys are already considered complete, cultivating until now without regrets... Next, it's up to the young people."
The Thousand Illusion Knight's eyes were filled with longing, and her heart became more determined.
The other Knights were also encouraged.
Levi said, "Whether it is a legend or a mythical bloodline, it has not been easy to cultivate to this point. You must pass it on well. Even if our generation cannot succeed, as long as the fire is passed on and we continue to improve, one day, a new mythical existence will surely stand between heaven and earth."
After a brief celebration, everyone went about their business.
Cultivation knows no years.
Four years later.
Nora Calendar 1036, Bloody Battle Year 824.
Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.
Levi held a delicate small tower in his hand, like an Eighth Ring stupa.
Carved with dragons and painted with phoenixes, it was ancient and grand.
Myriad runes adorned it like twinkling stars, flashing incessantly.
If one immersed their consciousness within, they would discover a unique world.
The tower contained its own realm, over a thousand miles in radius.
Mountains, earth-fire, rivers and lakes, thunder, glaciers, mirages...
Various elemental forces and energies intertwined, resembling a new world.
The only flaw was the absence of wind power.
Six pillars supporting the sky stood in six directions, which was the effect of the Rare Wood.
They were both the "spine" of the Wizard Tower and the "main beam" of this world.
"My Wizard Tower is initially completed. From preparing the materials to now, it has taken over a thousand years and cost tens of billions of Great Stones... This doesn't even include the Sea Stabilizing Divine Pillar. The value of that thing is immeasurable; even Great Wizards would covet it."
In Gargamel's mind, the complete Eternal Star Abyss had ten layers, containing ten realms.
Each realm was a small world.
The realms were inhabited by the Star Abyss Tower Citizens, all of whom were suppressed by the Wizard Tower.
There was a symbiotic relationship between the Tower Citizens and the Wizard Tower.
When the Tower Master Levi was attacked, all the potential energy could be transferred to the Tower Citizens to share the burden.
The Tower Citizens' own power would also be drawn away by the Wizard Tower and stored in the Tower Spirit.
The Wizard Tower could launch attacks that gathered the power of ten thousand people, making cross-level battles not just a pipe dream.
Of course, it was still far from complete.
The Wizard Tower only had a crude world within it.
Other functions had not yet been implemented.
But even so, simple suppression, defense, and attack functions were already complete.
It was more than enough to use as his soul weapon.
With this thought, Levi released his Primal Soul.
The phantom of the Eighth Ring Law Ring Holy Tower also slowly floated out.
The mental power tower and the physical Wizard Tower merged like water and milk.
Afterward, Levi's Primal Soul's source power also began to slowly nourish the Wizard Tower.
Another year passed in this way.
During this time, Levi constantly attuned himself to the Wizard Tower.
The Wizard Tower, which was originally an inanimate object, began to possess spirituality.
Subsequently, a virtual projection with a face identical to Levi's began to solidify within the tower.
This was the Tower Spirit of the Eternal Star Abyss.
It was actually transformed from Levi's Law Ring Holy Tower.
The Law Ring Holy Tower was the bridge connecting the Wizard Tower and Levi.
Allowing Levi and the Wizard Tower to merge into one.
Ultimately achieving the effect of being as easy to command as one's own limbs, completely integrated.
Becoming a soul weapon, the use of the Wizard Tower was like a talent spell.
With a single thought, the Wizard Tower could execute various commands.
During the refining process, one "star" after another began to light up the Sky Dome of the Wizard Tower.
These stars are unlocked "seal slots," also known as "Eternal Star Abyss."
The eight-layered tower possesses eight thousand Eternal Star Abyss.
Each Eternal Star Abyss can seal an entity whose strength does not exceed Levi's.
In other words, theoretically, Levi can currently seal eight thousand Eighth Ring powerhouses inside.
After Tenth Ring, he will possess ten thousand Eternal Star Abyss, capable of sealing ten thousand True Gods… Of course, reality is impossible.
There are three reasons:
Firstly,
Maintaining each Eternal Star Abyss requires consuming a certain amount of mental energy.
The stronger the entity, the higher the consumption. Exceeding Levi's mental capacity would result in backlash.
Secondly,
You can't make bricks without straw. The Star Realm simply doesn't have ten thousand True Gods.
It's a simple concept.
If the Star Realm had so many gods, they would have already flattened the Netherworld and the Abyss.
The Wizard World wouldn't even be a factor.
According to the "Star Realm Illustrated Handbook" compiled by the Wizard Council.
To date, the Wizard civilization has only observed and recorded over eight hundred gods.
Including those not observed, there might be a thousand or so.
Among them, the vast majority are miscellaneous gods and wild gods who achieved godhood by chance.
Their actual combat power is much weaker than that of a regular Tenth Ring powerhouse.
The significance of such gods is to be killed by heaven-defying Ninth Ring existences from the Star Realm, who leapfrog levels to kill them.
Thus, heroic epics of "mortal bodies slaying gods" are spread.
Many of the nearly one hundred Tenth Ring powerhouses in the Sauron Multiverse have committed deicide.
Some have killed more than one…
Thirdly,
The Wizard Tower is limited by its materials and other factors, and has its own load-bearing limit.
Even the Dark Ancient Tower refined by Sauron cannot seal all the True Gods of the Star Realm.
Therefore, these ten thousand Eternal Star Abyss need to be reasonably allocated based on the actual situation.
Being able to seal dozens of powerhouses of the same realm as Levi is powerful enough.
Eight thousand stars dotted around, the Shadow Emblem transformed into a ray of light, branded on the tower wall.
From now on, the Wizard Tower is the home of the Shadow Legion.
Levi carefully selected the eight thousand strongest shadows and bound them to the Eternal Star Abyss.
In the future, when enemies attack him, these shadows can share a huge amount of damage for him.
After the Wizard Tower was completely integrated, Levi came to the Ancient Banyan Netherworld Mansion.
The Bloodstained Queen was focused on writing her manuscript.
The Maiden A'jie. The story begins with A'jie's Wizard talent not being ideal. So she chooses to sell her charms, seducing the Guardian Dragon to rise in the organization…
Levi sighed, the Queen really has a special fondness for dragons.
"Oh, boss, what's up?" The Bloodstained Queen put down her pen.
"You're done writing, come spar with me."
Nightmare World.
Li Dragon King held the Eternal Star Abyss in his left hand and the Red Dragon Ironcleaver in his right! In front of him, the Dragon Corpse Demon's breath spewed out a hurricane, its aura becoming even stronger.
These years, Mary's skill in piloting has become increasingly adept.
In sparring with the Khorne Overlord, she wins nine out of ten times.
"Come on!"
"Be careful, Master."
The giant dragon, enveloped in a hurricane covering nearly a thousand miles, pounced with unstoppable momentum.
Eternal Star Abyss was released, instantly transforming into a towering form of twenty thousand meters.
Around the Wizard Tower, countless runes shimmered, transforming into the power of starlight.
The starlight formed circles of star rings, rotating endlessly.
Invisible ripples spread out.
Wherever they passed, everything within hundreds of miles turned to dust.
This was the Wizard Tower's inherent force field, named [Star Abyss Domain].
The hurricane was shattered, and the dragon's breath was blocked.
The giant dragon's claws were blasted away, and its body retreated.
"What a powerful treasure," Mary flattered at the opportune moment.
"Come, continue." Levi also moved.
He instantly appeared at the top of the Wizard Tower, and the powerful suppressing force caused the giant dragon to sink into the mud.
The dragon's tail swept over, but Levi neither dodged nor evaded, directly confronting the blow.
In the past, he would definitely have been blasted away.
But this time, he only glided backward to stabilize himself, his face filled with surprise.
"I completely withstood this Ninth Ring physical power."
At least half of the force of that attack was absorbed by the Wizard Tower.
Then, based on the level of strength, the damage was proportionally distributed among the eight thousand shadows.
The strong bore more, and the weak bore less.
Because all eight thousand shadows were elites, there were no casualties.
If they were Fourth Ring or Fifth Ring shadows,
even with the distribution, most of them would have died or been injured.
Having gained an understanding of the Wizard Tower's power, Levi's confidence greatly increased.
After tens of thousands of rounds, he relied on the Wizard Tower to defeat the giant Dragon Corpse Demon.
"Master, you are too strong. I could have lasted tens of thousands more rounds before,"
"Stop flattering me and go back to writing your novel."
"Alright, hehe."
Back in the real world.
Levi pondered in his heart.
He now had four methods to contend against Ninth Ring existences.
First, Elemental Nihility.
Second, the Giant Dragon Corpse Demon.
Third, Eternal Star Abyss.
Fourth, Thunder Element Formless Body.
Elemental Nihility was an important means of harming Ninth Ring existences.
The Corpse Demon was both offensive and defensive.
Eternal Star Abyss is mainly for control and survival.
The Thunder Element Formless Body is also for survival.
With his strength inflated to this point, Levi couldn't help but feel eager to try.
Unfortunately, there were no suitable and safe opponents.
Those weaker overlords in the Nightmare World all had tough backers.
As for the stronger overlords, Levi would only be asking for trouble if he went there.
"Just one more Eighteenth Layer Hell Magic Array and it will be perfect."
Levi's idea was to install the magic array inside the Eternal Star Abyss.
Through the dual suppression of the magic array and the Wizard Tower, he would try to minimize the gap in strength.
House of Witches.
Triss had completed the refinement of the [Red Moon Treasure Toad].
This Strange Object increased her mental strength by 200 points, which shows that it is also a top-quality Full Moon Wonder.
In addition, a special Water-type talent was born.
Because of the inclusiveness of the [Sea God] talent, it had already been absorbed by her.
Triss's overall talent had improved further.
In addition, the Red Moon Treasure Toad also gave birth to a projection.
A red toad as large as a mountain, with a reputation like a bull.
Not only that, but it also gave birth to a different kind of water.
It was a red water containing highly poisonous negative energy.
These things seemed familiar.
That was the [Black Queen Serpent] that Triss had refined in her early days.
The two can be said to be very similar.
Both gave birth to different kinds of water and energy projections.
Triss understood that this was likely a Sequence Strange Object.
Toads and black serpents are all symbols of poisonous creatures.
This sequence may be related to poisonous creatures.
She told Levi about this discovery.
Levi was also greatly shocked.
It could be like this?
Regardless of whether it was a Sequence Strange Object or not.
In the future, he must pay special attention to those Strange Objects that symbolize poisonous creatures.
Scorpions, centipedes, and spiders are all possibilities.
Three years later.
Nora Calendar 1040, Bloody Battle 828.
Levi spent most of his time cultivating, and in his spare time, he would go demon hunting to relax.
When hunting demons, Levi did not reveal his two trump cards: his Wizard Tower and the Giant Dragon Corpse Demon.
This was the "surprise" he had left for the Ninth Ring demons.
The Golden Radiance Dragon Breathing Technique unknowingly improved to the late Eighth Ring stage.
Whether it's the Adamantine Secret Word or the basic defensive capabilities, both have significantly improved.
The diameter of the Magneto Domain has also increased to 150 kilometers.
Through years of constant battles, his Apex Path Stratagem has reached the limit of Eighth Ring.
He's just waiting to condense his troop type after reaching Ninth Ring.
He estimates that the troop type he condenses will likely not be a single type.
But rather a mixed troop type proficient in all eighteen weapons.
For him, any weapon is readily at his disposal.
Swordsmanship, spear techniques, whip methods, etc., are merely different forms of expression.
In essence, all paths lead to the same destination.
The Lovers Rune is at Fifteenth-Order, and the luck amplification has increased from 160% to 180%.
The Hanged Man Rune has risen to Ninth Ring, and the amplification power has reached 80%.
On the Nora Continent side, all three clones have entered the final sprint stage for Eighth Ring.
They are all staying indoors, focusing on cultivating body refinement methods, or imprinting Wizard Marks.
Gandalf refined the Morning Star body refinement wonder, the Mountain-Bearing Sky Beetle.
It increased his mental strength insignificantly and slightly improved his Dragon Elephant Saint Body.
The advanced chapter of the Amethyst Body Refinement Method project is nearing completion.
He and the research team members are making the final push.
Such a quiet cultivation life in Gondor City cannot last for too long.
Small-scale demon invasions occur constantly, and major wars happen every few decades.
Many familiar faces within the city have silently disappeared.
Darkness Zone.
Roar! Accompanied by a terrifying dragon roar that shook the world.
In a certain small plane, all living beings were awakened.
They scrambled to find places to hide.
Countless mortals trembled as they looked at the sun-obscuring crimson dragon.
It was draped in a hideous heavy armor full of steel thorns, and wherever it passed, everything was incinerated.
"Hahahaha, Ogreil, you've finally reached Ninth Ring."
Dagon the Great was in high spirits, exuding an aura of domineering confidence.
It had waited thousands of years for this day!
From now on, in the Multiverse, it would also be a powerhouse to be reckoned with.
With Tenth Ring experts not appearing, Ninth Ring is supreme! So what if it relied on external objects?
With the Wings of Destruction dragon secret armor, it could control the Flame King Dragon!
The giant dragon transformed into a streak of fire, flying towards the giant world ahead.
That was Nora!
Next, Dagon would hide in the Darkness Zone near Gondor City.
Then, it would find the right opportunity to capture the Fire Dragon Master in one fell swoop when he left the city to hunt demons.
The Dragon Flame Divine Wizard's full-map strike only targets demons above Ninth Ring.
So there was no need to worry about being targeted by a Legendary Wizard.
Over the years, it had already figured out the Fire Dragon Master's habits.
It could be said that no one understood Fire Dragon Master better than it.
Since the other party hadn't advanced to Eighth Ring, with Ogreil's strength, failure was impossible.
"After this battle, my Dagon's prestige will surely spread throughout the Wizard World!"
An unnamed small world in the deep space.
Surgard's World Extinguishing Sword pierced into the earth's core.
As a steady stream of energy poured in.
Its severed left arm slowly recovered a portion.
This World Extinguishing Sword was refined by the Abyss using many kinds of rare materials.
Among them was an adult Star Ring Serpent.
Previously, Surgard fought the Twilight Sun God, but was ultimately no match and could only flee in defeat.
Even though it was once close to an Eleventh-Order existence, it was now only Ninth Ring.
If not for the World Extinguishing Sword's power, it would have been difficult to even injure the Twilight Sun God.
Of course, the latter didn't have it easy either; its divine body was contaminated by the magic sword.
To fully recover, it would inevitably have to expend a lot of Divine Power.
In the short term, it shouldn't descend to the lower realm to disturb it.
As for angels? Surgard would kill as many of those things as came.
Suddenly, Surgard's expression changed.
"Found you."
A phantom seemed to cross endless void and arrive.
It wore golden armor, held a great halberd, and its battle intent soared to the sky.
"Profound Meaning: Halberd Shatters Nine Stars!"
Buzz! Buzz! In the endless space between heaven and earth, as that halberd fell, the light of nine stars flickered and died.
The nine stars connected, transforming into an indescribable, ultimate brilliance!
Surgard used the World Extinguishing Sword to block.
"Holy War Monarch, you dare to cause trouble for me, Surgard?"
"Heh, no matter how glorious you once were, you're only Ninth Ring now."
After forcefully withstanding that halberd, Surgard grunted and sneered, "I remember your true body can't leave the Holy War World, right? The power of your projection descending from afar is only so-so... I won't play with you today. Once I reach Tenth Ring, I will definitely pay a visit. Don't even think about getting that old thing Bloodfire Overlord's human body."
It offered a giant Demon Mountain that exploded with a bang.
Using this as cover, it escaped into the Abyssal Well and disappeared without a trace.
The Holy War Monarch remained silent, and the projection slowly dissipated.
The Destroyer of Worlds was indeed well-deserved.
The Abyss sent it out, presumably wanting to accelerate Surgard's development by wantonly destroying worlds.
Once it returned to its peak, there would only be a handful of opponents within the multiverse.
The strong one departed, and the aftermath of the great battle subsided.
That small world also ushered in its twilight doomsday.
Faintly, it seemed one could hear the world's wails.
After an unknown amount of time.
A burly and majestic figure, like a Giant, descended.
He wore a Lion King helmet and was clad in rusty, dark gold heavy armor.
Behind him hung a giant shield and hammer capable of shattering stars.
He gazed at the world on the verge of destruction, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"What a pity, it's about to meet its end before even forming a civilization..."
"I wonder how the Solomon Empire is doing now; it's time to go back and take a look."
"I wonder if those who were fortunate enough to receive my teachings back then have achieved anything?"
"Nora is currently undergoing an unprecedented plane convergence; it might be worth visiting."
His desolate figure muttered to himself in solitude.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed.
He saw a transparent crystal emerge from the wreckage of the fading world.
It radiated a vitality and spirituality, like a beating heart.
Resentment, anger, grievance... intangible obsessions brewed within it.
Even a newborn world, though speechless, yearned to survive.
"This is? A Star Spirit Heart! Such a wonder was actually born?"
His expression was surprised as he collected the Star Spirit Heart and quietly departed.
This item might be useful on his trip to Nora.
