Chapter 111 The Unquenchable Golden Vertical Pupil! (3rd update! 3600 words, please subscribe!)

night.

Icewind City.

The cold wind howled, like a knife being drawn from its sheath.

The lanky, chained prisoner was almost caught by the large hand shrouded in a black cloak.

Li Wei's large hand grasped at empty air.

Just as the evil spirit was about to be caught, it hooked its long chain onto a house chimney, and then it floated lightly toward the chimney.

"Trying to run away?"

Li Wei sneered inwardly, and then, like a cannonball, he leaped into the air and landed on the roof with a bang.

The evil spirit, relying on its status as a spirit, could pass through walls and hide in the house below.

"Damn, this is really exhausting." Li Wei stomped on the roof and smashed it.

He fell straight into the room below.

Unlike the other rooms, which were all abandoned.

There are people in this room.

The lady of the house was doing something that adults do at night with the man of the house.

"Ah... what are you doing...?"

The male homeowner screamed.

The woman of the house crawled under the covers, not daring to show her face.

Li Wei completely ignored the two of them, staring at the evil spirit that was preparing to pass through the wall again.

Golden Cross Slash!

Black mist entwines the sorrow of frost.

"break!"

Li Wei unleashed a sword strike, the cross-shaped sword light as thunder and lightning, as long as a rainbow piercing the sun, dazzling and impossible to look directly at!

boom!

A cross-shaped slash, enveloped in thick black energy, sliced ​​the wall of the house into four pieces.

After being slashed like that, the evil spirit's body became even more ethereal, like a candle flame that could be extinguished at any moment in the wind.

It became even weaker!

If it weren't for the fact that the archbishop of that church was suspected to be behind them.

Li Wei had already used the Flame Flow Seal.

Like black mist, flames can also cause damage to evil spirits.

Boom! The house collapsed, and Li Wei's figure had already disappeared.

The male homeowner breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Li Wei's disappearing figure.

The lady of the house also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, I thought it was your Richard who broke in." The male homeowner stood in the yard and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At the same time, a dark-skinned old man with black energy swirling around and a giant sword in his hand hurriedly passed by.

"You two, naked in broad daylight, what kind of behavior is this? Put your clothes on right now!"

The grey-robed sage Adolf shouted angrily and then chased after them.

Good heavens! When did such a powerful knight appear in Icewind City? He's so fast!

"Could it be a mountain of silver? It doesn't seem like it."

Adolf chased after them, but his doubts remained.

Meanwhile, the evil spirit seemed to have been cornered by Li Wei and had given up on escaping. A low, guttural roar could be faintly heard.

At the same time, the clanging of chains and the sound of metal striking metal rang out.

The ten-meter-long illusory chain hurtled towards Li Wei.

Li Wei was surrounded by black mist, his entire body resembling a writhing black fog. From within the black mist, a large hand reached out and directly grabbed the chain.

A buzzing sound rang out.

Under Li Wei's thick black aura, the illusory chains actually began to smoke.

"This feeling is just like a snow demon encountering mithril! Sure enough, the black energy is useful. No wonder this evil spirit ran away when it saw me; it turns out it couldn't beat me!" Li Wei's mind raced.

With a forceful grab, he pulled the evil spirit directly along the chain with his large hand.

Then Li Wei's Golden Cross Slash was another burst of sword light.

Ripple Cross Slash!

The power of advanced ripples spread, making the black energy even more violent!

Like a black magic sword!

puff.

The sensation of penetrating solid objects came through.

Li Wei felt as if he had plunged a red-hot sword into a large piece of pork.

The evil spirit's chest was sizzling and burning.

Its form became even more ethereal, and its aura even weaker.

Li Wei, unforgiving and persistent, continued hacking away.

Before long, the evil spirit's figure was as fragile as a piece of toilet paper soaked in water, easily torn and utterly vulnerable.

Its attempts to break through the black aura on Li Wei's surface with its ghostly claws and chains were in vain, and to no avail.

The black energy was so thick that it felt as if it were grasping at a vast ocean of black energy, realizing how presumptuous it was.

In the end, Li Wei used his black energy to tear apart the evil spirit's body, knead it into a ball, and crush it.

The evil spirit vanished completely, and so did the intense resentment it felt.

"That's it?" Li Wei wondered.

"Did I actually kill it or not?" Li Wei was momentarily doubting his life. It was his first time killing an evil spirit, and he had no experience.

It wasn't until Li Wei saw a pool of white powder on the ground, like ashes, that he realized what had happened.

"Dust of the Dead!" Li Wei exclaimed with delight.

Not far away, the black aura surrounding Adolf gradually dissipated, revealing the lean and capable-looking old man's body below.

He coughed once, but simply stood there, making no rash move.

Because he knew he was no match for this mysterious man.

Adolf saw his younger self in him.

"Thank you for your help, sir," Adolf said politely after thinking for a moment.

The figure in the white wolf mask raised his head, looked at Adolf, and said nothing.

Adolf smiled slightly and decided not to make a fool of himself.

He turned and ran towards the church.

Watching the old man disappear, Li Wei quickly collected the dust of the dead and put it into the container he had prepared beforehand.

"With so much powder, I wonder if I can grind the Dragon's Might Seal to the second tier."

Li Wei muttered to himself before finally leaving the battlefield.

He returned to his lodgings, summoned Demon Shark and Demon Mountain, and left Icewind City that very night.

Because the commotion he caused in the battle last night was too great, it was bound to attract the attention of Earl Silver Mountain. Li Wei did not want to go to jail for trespassing and intentional damage to property.

After all, he was doing his duty to rid the people of harm and act bravely for a just cause.

Back in Blackwater Valley, Li Wei reviewed the battle with the evil spirit.

Overall, the battle went about as he had anticipated.

No, the evil spirit was weaker than he had imagined.

"Perhaps this is the weakest evil spirit."

Li Wei cautioned himself against becoming arrogant just because he had killed an evil spirit.

"However, this is a good start, showing that great knights do have the ability to fight against evil spirits, especially defensive great knights like myself, who have an advantage against evil spirits."

"Because my black aura defense is much denser than that of other Grand Knights, I don't need to use the Guardian Seal at all to almost ignore the attacks of this level of evil spirits. Other Grand Knights definitely couldn't do that."

"To deal with evil spirits, you don't need much power. You just need to have enough dark energy to capture them alive. Before you can kill them completely, you also need a strong enough defense to be immune to their evil spirit attacks."

"Indeed, layered armor is powerful for a while, and it remains powerful the longer it is layered."

"Layered armor is the coolest."

Li Wei felt somewhat relieved, realizing that he had chosen the right path.

After today's battle, Li Wei's unknown fear of evil spirits gradually disappeared.

He will still be cautious and careful about evil spirits, but he won't scare himself every day.

Evil spirits are nothing special.

"Once I master the Dragon's Might Seal, I'll go and kill that water fairy. I want to see just how powerful this evil spirit that killed the original owner and scared away the demon shark is."

It is dangerous to live in constant companionship with evil spirits.

Although Li Wei guessed that the other party could not leave the vicinity of the Blackwater River, this was only a guess.

Therefore, being able to resolve the issue with the other party is the best option.

Li Wei had prepared all the materials he had prepared beforehand to unleash the Dragon's Might Seal.

He was also very familiar with the incantation for the Dragon's Might Seal, so he quickly and successfully performed it once.

Li Wei struck out with his palm into the void.

boom!

In an instant, an unseen power surged into Li Wei's body.

The blood of the earth dragon beast within Li Wei's spell materials blazed fiercely, transforming into a raging fire. This fire had no temperature; it was merely an illusion.

Amidst the raging flames, a pair of indifferent, eternally burning golden vertical pupils slowly opened, as if bursting forth with golden flames, and then, a spiritual force field was unleashed with a bang!

hold head high!

Like a dragon roaring!

Under the dragon's might, all things submit!

The entire shelter seemed to tremble slightly due to this invisible mental fluctuation.

"Good heavens, this is incredibly powerful? A mental attack that actually interferes with matter?"

"This Dragon Might Seal is quite something."

"This hand seal is definitely not simple."

Li Wei stared at the slowly dissipating phantom of the giant dragon, his heart filled with awe.

This is probably the legendary dragon.

Those golden eyes were captivating and majestic, like those of a born king, arrogant and unmatched!

After his initial excitement subsided, Li Wei opened the proficiency panel.

As expected, the Dragon's Mark skill has been imprinted on the panel.

Li Wei————

Dragon's Might Seal: Tier 1 (1/1000)

……

"Another 1 point of proficiency, a thousand spellcasting materials are needed to grind to the second tier, and then it takes tens of thousands more..."

Li Wei estimated the amount of energy needed for a single spell and the amount of evil spirit dust he already possessed.

The spirit dust provided by this chained evil spirit is probably only enough to increase Li Wei's proficiency by one-tenth.

"You need to kill ten evil spirits to reach level two?"

"Alright, let's leave this skill as it is. Anyway, the power of the first tier should be enough."

Li Wei has absolutely no idea where to find the evil spirits.

Moreover, evil spirits are not limited to the chained evil spirit.

If you encounter a powerful evil spirit, like the one that killed the White Horse Knight, you'll most likely be in trouble.

Therefore, the priority of gaining experience with the Dragon's Mark is relatively low.

Instead of desperately killing evil spirits to farm the Dragon's Might Seal, it's more worthwhile to focus on improving the quality of the Black Qi.

But regardless, Li Wei has gained a skill that targets evil spirits, which is something to be happy about.

"After practicing the Dragon's Might Seal a bit more, I can go and meet that water fairy." After saying that, Li Wei threw himself into the great task of gaining experience.

……

Meanwhile, in Icewind City.

The aftershocks of that night's battle had not yet subsided.

The Icewind Cathedral announced that it had successfully used newly developed holy water to exorcise an evil spirit hiding in Icewind City.

At the same time, the gates of Icewind City reopened.

The people were immediately overjoyed.

They were thrilled by the church's great achievement.

On that day, many wealthy people donated a lot of gold coins to the church.

A lot of holy water was also sold.

This allowed the church to make another profit.

Inside Yinshan Fort.

Reception room.

Earl Silver Mountain and an old man in a gray robe sat facing each other.

"Was it really not the Earl who slew the evil spirit that night?"

Adolf asked with a smile.

Earl Silver Mountain looked helpless and shook his head: "Adolf, we've been friends for many years, and you were my idol when I was young. How could I possibly lie to you? I, Silver Mountain, never lie."

Adolf frowned slightly, then sighed: "It seems it really wasn't you. Then who could it be? Judging from the aura of that black energy, that person's strength is no weaker than yours, only slightly weaker than mine when I was young."

"Oh, this person is actually so strong?" Yinshan was slightly surprised.

"That's right. I originally thought he was a speed-type great knight, but when I saw that the evil spirit chain prisoner's chain attack couldn't break through his black aura defense, I realized that he was defensive. What's most terrifying is that he seems to be unmatched in strength as well, and he is also skilled in an extremely powerful sword technique."

Silver Mountain, your Icewind City is hiding a great master. What's most terrifying is that such a master never shows his face. If it weren't for him chasing the evil spirit this night, we wouldn't have known that such a low-key master existed.

Fortunately, this expert didn't seem to have any bad intentions; on the contrary, he helped me slay an evil spirit.

"By the mercy of Heaven, if I were ten years younger—no, even five years younger—I would definitely use my fists to tell this damned evil spirit that Icewind City is not a place where it can run rampant."

The gray-robed sage looked regretful and began to reminisce about his past glories, words that Silver Mountain had heard countless times.

Yinshan, however, was frowning. He suddenly remembered Athos, the vice president of the Wilderness Brotherhood, who had mysteriously disappeared some time ago. He was suspected of being killed by a mysterious powerful figure.

This... could it be just one person?
