Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 158 Holy Ape Emperor Mu, Black Serpent Li Wei, Extreme Knight, King of the Century! (1.2 words, please subscribe)

Black Sail Island.

Black Sail Wizard Market.

The Black Sails Enforcement Council is the official body that maintains order in this market. It has always been led by Whale Song Island, with other second-ring wizard organizations participating, each sending their own wizard apprentices to participate in joint enforcement.

The president of the Enforcement Council is theoretically a rotating position, but because other organizations do not have enough first-ring wizards, the president has long been the first-ring wizard of Whale Song Island, Ghost Eel Wizard Hillkos.

Despite the criticisms from other wizarding organizations, they could only acquiesce in the end due to the strength of Whale Song Island.

Hilkos's face was now grim: "Hasn't they found Kolo's body yet?"

The enforcer before him, a young wizard apprentice, bowed his head and said, "No."

Hilkos stared at the Soul Jade in his hand, which represented Kolo's soul and was now completely cracked.

This means that his eldest disciple, the highly trusted and mentored senior wizard apprentice he had raised, and the captain of the Whale Song Island enforcement team, Kolo, was actually dead.

"Keep searching, expand the search area, investigate those who are close to Kolo. I want to see who dares to lay a hand on our law enforcement officers!" Hillkos said coldly.

"Yes, Lord Hilkos, I will send someone to investigate immediately."

Hilkos watched his apprentice's departing figure, his face grim.

Chloe was his apprentice and also his henchman. Hilkos was naturally aware that Chloe and others were causing trouble at the Blacksail Wizarding Market.

But he tacitly agreed to all of this, since Chloe would give him Tai Shi as a gift every year.

The reason why he, Hilkos, was willing to leave Whale Song Island and come to this market to become the head of the law enforcement council was simply so that he could make some money here.

Now that his own crony, who was essentially profiting from his position, had been murdered, this was utterly blatantly offensive to Hilkos.

He vowed that if he ever found out who the murderer was, he would make them regret ever being born.

Just as the Black Sail Enforcement Association was secretly investigating the murderer.

Li Wei has left Black Sail Island.

He took a long detour to the sea and boarded the Basilosaurus in a deserted area.

He stared solemnly at the flame mark on his chest.

Clearly, this is some kind of tracking mark, which should also be a type of magic, but this kind of magic is very unorthodox.

Generally, only wizards with important offspring would be willing to waste a spell slot to learn this spell, in order to protect their bloodline and descendants.

With this mark, a wizard can sense the location of his descendants. If a descendant is killed, the mark will transfer to the perpetrator, allowing the wizard to pinpoint the perpetrator's location and avenge his descendants.

This spell has no other function besides this one.

Therefore, normal wizards would not learn these things unless they have someone they care about.

Clearly, the Burning Faction apprentice killed by Levi was most likely someone that the Fire-Teasing Master Kane cared about.

At first, Li Wei was a little flustered.

However, after investigating Kane's qualifications at the Blacksail Wizarding Market, he felt somewhat relieved. The other party was not a second-circle wizard and was still within his control.

Kane, the Fire Master.

A senior wizard of the first ring, lord of Blackfire Island, member of the Azure Flame Alliance, and guest mentor of Whale Song Island...

He has many honors, and although he has not joined the wizarding organization, he is still a prominent figure in this sea area.

Li Wei never expected that the mentor of the Burning Faction that Manra helped her daughter find was him.

I overheard Manla complaining that he had paid 200 taels of silver just for his daughter's tuition. And that's basically how most of the apprentices under the Fire Master got in; many paid even more in tuition than Manla's daughter.

It's worth noting that when Li Wei joined the Gray Tower, he not only didn't pay tuition, but he also got some points from the tower for free.

There's no way around it; things are valued for their scarcity. In this Azure Realm, there are relatively few wizards of the Burning Faction.

Kane, the Fire Master, naturally used this identity to make a fortune.

"I guess that person already knows his son is dead, and he should also know my location. There's no use running away. I only have two paths in front of me: one is to remove this mark, and the other is to let Kane be dealt with."

Removing the mark? I don't know anything about it... I've never studied this kind of magic before, and a mark placed by a first-circle wizard shouldn't be something a mid-level wizard apprentice like me can handle. So, my only option is to kill Kane; that way, the mark will naturally disappear.

However, if I were to attack a formal wizard, I would risk being judged by the Wizarding Tribunal of the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council. That would be a bit troublesome, and quite difficult to handle…”

Li Wei was a lawyer in his previous life, so he had studied all kinds of laws in the wizarding world, especially the Charter. He knew exactly what was illegal and what wasn't.

Outside of the haunted realm, the life of a legitimate wizard cannot be easily taken away without authorization.

If there is any grudge between the two parties, it should, in principle, be handed over to the Wizarding Inquisition for trial.

Therefore, Li Wei cannot actively hunt down Kane at this time.

All formal wizards are members of the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council. Aside from exceptional cases like bizarre realms or black wizards, randomly killing a formal wizard member could lead to an investigation by the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council, causing Li Wei considerable trouble.

If Levi wants to survive in the wizarding world, he must abide by the rules of the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council.

Without absolute power, there is no such thing as absolute freedom. As Rousseau said, "Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains."

After much deliberation, Levi, who resembled Earl of Silver Mountain, concluded that Kane had most likely already locked onto his coordinates through this mark. If he were to return to the Gray Tower, it might expose his true identity.

Unable to return to the Gray Tower, he had a sudden inspiration and took out the corpse of Green Ghost Carter and the corpse of the Rock Troll family from his storage ring.

He transformed into the image of a wizard apprentice from his memories of the Ship of the Dead. He planned to find a place to lie in wait, disguise himself as a member of the Ship of the Dead, and kill Kane, who might be seeking revenge, under the guise of a dark wizard.

This can serve to some extent to deceive people, and even if an investigation is conducted, people will likely assume that the undead ship is the one causing the trouble.

Anyway, Li Wei has a hundred faces and a thousand appearances, and can change his appearance at will. Unless he is locked in by this tracking mark, Li Wei can get away by changing his appearance.

Of course, if the Pan-Dimensional Wizards Council were to use more advanced magic to investigate the truth of the matter, or even see through Li Wei's disguise, then Li Wei would be powerless, as he was merely a wizard apprentice.

In short, Li Wei has no better options at the moment. The current situation is that Kane has most likely identified him, and even though he killed Kane's son in self-defense, Kane certainly won't believe him.

Similarly, Li Wei did not intend to hand this matter over to the Wizarding Inquisition.

Because of this tracking mark, it can be objectively proven that Livy did indeed kill the son of Kane. Otherwise, this specific tracking mark could not have ended up on Livy. Wizards may lie, but objective magic generally does not lie.

Li Wei had investigated some cases, and in many similar cases in the Wizarding Inquisition, the inquisition used this kind of tracking mark to prove that the suspect was the murderer and thus convict him.

Although Li Wei's actions constituted legitimate self-defense, he lacked evidence and his words were insufficient proof.

He didn't have the kind of magic or props that could record the scene. Otherwise, if he had used magic to objectively record the situation, according to the rules of the law, Li Wei would at most have been guilty of excessive self-defense, and shouldn't have been severely punished.

Given the current situation, if the matter reaches the Wizarding Inquisition, then, considering Kane's status and position as a formal wizard, the Wizarding Inquisition will likely side with him. Going to the Wizarding Inquisition on your own is like walking into a trap.

The solution Levi has come up with so far, although it may violate the laws of the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council and risk turning him into a dark wizard, is one that Levi has no other choice about.

If things really get to the worst point, he can only pin his hopes on the Gray Tower to protect himself.

If all else fails, he can hide back in the human world and come back after the statute of limitations for the case has expired.

When faced with indecision, retreat back to the human world.

According to the law, the statute of limitations for a first-ring wizard's death is generally one year.

If the murderer is not found a year later, the Wizarding Inquisition will not waste judicial resources investigating the death of a mere first-level wizard.

At that time, unless Levi, the murderer, turned himself in, no one would care about Kane's death.

With that in mind, Li Wei found a deserted island and took out the corpses of the Rock Troll family of four and the Green Ghost Carter. He injected all the Undead Cores into the bodies of these five corpses and then hid them in the seawater, ready to be deployed at any time.

Kane the Fireman is no less powerful than Green Goblin Carter in his prime. Although Levi is now a legendary knight, he cannot be careless.

He must do everything in his power to eliminate the Fire-Playing Master Kane cleanly and efficiently, and absolutely not let him escape.

After making these preparations, Li Wei rested and recuperated on the island, adjusting himself to his best condition.

The spider sensed a faint danger, but perhaps because the source of the danger was too far away, the feeling wasn't very strong.

Time passed day by day.

On the seventh day, as the sensation grew stronger, Li Wei knew that the Fire Master Kane had arrived, just as he had predicted.

A fiery red blanket floated in mid-air and slowly arrived at the island.

Five people stood on the blanket, exuding an imposing aura.

The leader, dressed in a flame-patterned robe, with fiery red curly hair and even red eyebrows, exuded the powerful aura of a formal wizard. His face was ashen as he looked down at a green-robed wizard apprentice sitting alone on the island and said condescendingly, "Do you know who I am?"

Li Wei raised his head and shook it: "I don't know."

Kane, the Fire Master, sneered, "You killed my son, and you don't know who I am? Why did you kill my son?"

Li Wei said expressionlessly, "The Ship of the Dead operates as it pleases; there's no need for me to explain to you."

"That's arrogant enough. I know you're definitely not from the Ship of the Dead. Their people, when they do something bad, just run away instead of sitting on the island waiting for me."

"Too many people have committed atrocities in this sea under the guise of the Ship of the Dead. I don't care who you are. Anyway, whoever you are, you killed my son. I must put you in the fires of Blackfire Island to roast you, to devour your flesh and suck your marrow, only then can I vent my hatred!"

Kane didn't waste any words; he directly ordered his four wizard apprentices to attack Levi.

The four wizard apprentices—two high-ranking and two mid-ranking—were all from the Burning Faction. So, their first move was to unleash four small fireballs that shot towards Li Wei, creating a rather intimidating display.

Li Wei wielded the Viper Staff, his body protected by undead bone armor. At the same time, he moved, his speed as a tenth-tier blood beast far surpassing that of a wizard who did not use any spells.

He dodged the fireballs one by one.

A burst of soul flame shot towards one of the mid-level wizard apprentices.

Since Li Wei is going to pretend to be a member of the Undead Ship, he should go all the way. That way, when the investigators from the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council come later, they can also identify Li Wei as a member of the Undead Ship based on the remaining traces of magic.

At the same time, Li Wei muttered something to himself.

He had already pushed it to the fourth tier limit during this time. The Withering Ray, far more powerful than the Water Arrow spell, emitted a gray withering light and hurtled towards Kane on the blanket.

Kane sneered, and with a wave of his wand, a shield of flames protected him, blocking the withering ray attack.

"How dare you! You dare to attack a formal wizard. It seems you have something to rely on." Kane quickly chanted a spell and waved his wand.

First-circle spell: Fireball.

A fireball with a diameter of two meters hurtled toward Li Wei.

Seeing this, Li Wei immediately summoned the Rock Troll family and Green Ghost Katarina, who were hiding nearby, along with their summoned Hellforces.

Kane's expression changed the moment Green Goblin Carter appeared with Hellforce.

"Green Ghost Carter, you people from the Ship of the Dead, why did you lay a hand on my son? Bullying the weak, shameless! Bah!"

Green Ghost Carter naturally didn't respond.

At this moment, the Fire Master Kane realized that the Green Ghost Carter's face was stiff and he had no trace of life; he was clearly dead.

In an instant, he realized.

"You actually killed Green Goblin Carter? How is that possible? I couldn't even beat him!"

Kane, the Fireman, is well aware of how powerful Green Ghost Carter is.

Because he had fought against Green Goblin Carter before, and Green Goblin Carter ultimately won slightly, leaving Kane with no choice but to flee.

So when he saw Green Goblin Carter, his first instinct was to run away.

The person in front of him, who appeared to be a mid-level wizard apprentice, possessed a true strength far exceeding his expectations.

Could it be that some powerful second-ring wizard is deliberately hiding his strength and playing that boring game of pretending to be weak while actually being strong?

If he could kill Green Goblin Carter and turn him into a puppet, then continuing the fight might lead to his own death.

Thinking of this, Kane, who had only been playing for a short while and hadn't even warmed up, started to have second thoughts.

He felt it would be more appropriate to file a complaint with the Wizarding Inquisition...

It's safer to let their people do it than to do it yourself.

As soon as the rock troll appeared, it easily tore through the magical defenses and bodies of the wizard apprentices.

Especially the six-meter-tall male rock troll; none of the wizard apprentices' tricks could break its defenses. In front of it, they collapsed like clay chickens and earthenware dogs.

Having killed the wizard apprentice, the rock troll couple, and the hellish warriors controlled by the green ghost Carter, they all charged towards the fire-wielding troll Kane, who was trying to escape.

Kane, the Fire Master, riding the blanket, realized that discretion is the better part of valor. He began to flee from the heart, no longer caring about avenging his son. What was his son's life compared to his own?

Li Wei wasn't about to let him escape; over there, Green Ghost Carter used the powerful first-circle spell, Hellfire Rain, to block Kane's movement.

Unfortunately, the rock troll's strength was greatly reduced in the ocean, and it was unable to cast many types of spells.

If they were on land, this rock troll couple alone would be enough to give Kane a run for his money.

Li Wei sang softly, and the Wind Spirit Ring shimmered with magical runes.

A gentle breeze came and protected Li Wei, who rode the wind to pursue Kane.

Kane's blanket was not as fast as Levi's Wind Spirit Ring, and Levi quickly caught up with it.

Li Wei, wielding the Trident of Neptune, his blood wings fluttering, burst forth from the protection of the Wind Spirit, the trident hurtling towards Kane.

Kane knew this battle was inevitable, so he stopped running away.

The blanket protected him, its magical runes flashing, blocking Li Wei's halberd strike.

Kane had already completed the spell while he was inside the blanket.

The blanket unfurled, and a massive fireball, three meters in diameter, suddenly formed and hurtled towards Li Wei.

First-circle spell: Fireball!

The Burning Faction's trump card spell!

"They really are from the same family, both of them like to use fireballs to bombard people." Li Wei did not hesitate to use the first-circle spell of the Giant Squid Ring, Troll Encircle.

A dense aura of water elemental power gathered around Li Wei, and eight transparent, suction-cup-like water tentacles tightly encircled him. At the same time, black scales emerged beneath Li Wei's robes.

Although Li Wei felt that his solidified black scales and fiery body should be able to block this fireball spell, he always preferred to play it safe, so he did not hesitate to use the Kraken Encircle.

The Great Fireball spell exploded around Li Wei, enveloping him in countless flames. On the sea, white steam rose, as if a small sun was rising from the sea.

Kane's expression turned cold. The bracelet on his right hand lit up, and magical runes flickered. Kane was chanting a new spell. Faced with such a powerful enemy, he had to use all his strength.

This bracelet is also a magical artifact that can automatically attract and gather the fire elemental power around the caster, amplifying the power of burning spells. Moreover, the spell is solidified on it. This is a magical artifact that Kane specially commissioned a craftsman to make to adapt to the environment of the Endless Sea.

After all, in the Azure Realm, the power of fire element is far less than in the Crimson Realm where he was born.

A fiery serpent coiled around Kane's body before finally whistling as it flew towards the fireball.

First-circle spell: Fire Serpent Dance!

Kane is a steady man who never underestimates his opponents.

That's why he was able to thrive even in the territory of the oceanographic school.

Amidst the flames of the explosion.

Li Wei's strongest defensive spell, the Giant Demon's Encirclement, was shattered by the Great Fireball spell.

The B-level defense strength of the giant monster surrounding it ultimately couldn't withstand the A-level attack strength of the Great Fireball spell.

The remaining flames poured onto Li Wei, who was now surrounded by frost, his body ablaze with flames, and his black scales closed!

Even with Li Weiyan's fire element resistance.

He could feel the intense heat scorching him.

He exhaled a mouthful of crimson flame.

It was like letting out a burp.

Kane looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He looked at the black-scaled Li Wei bathed in flames and said coldly.

"A lizardman? No, you're a legendary knight? Who exactly are you?!"

"I don't believe it! A legendary knight could withstand my Great Fireball and Fire Serpent Dance? That's impossible!"

As a high-ranking wizard, Kane naturally looked down on knights, even the legendary knights who were extremely rare in legends. Although he had never seen them, he still disdained them.

In his view, a legendary knight might be able to fight to a draw with an ordinary first-ring wizard, but he would never be a match for him.

I am Kane, a seasoned wizard and the Fire Mage!

Without uttering a sound, Li Wei, his body engulfed in flames and black smoke, plunged into the sea from the fire.

Kane's face was grim as he stared intently down below, while a new spell was already prepared, ready to deliver the final blow to Levi at any moment.

If this person is only at this level, then he is indeed no match for me, since I still have trump cards up my sleeve. It seems that there was someone else behind Green Ghost Carter's death.

The next moment, a whirlpool surged in the sea, and a colossal creature leaped out of the water, while a terrifying column of water gushed out at the same time, arriving in an instant!

Dragon King's Breath!

Leviathan suddenly appeared!

Kane was hit by the sudden breath of the Dragon King.

His robes flashed with magical runes, barely managing to block the attack.

On the head of the Basilosaurus, a strange figure appeared, holding a trident, with evil spirits emerging behind him, three heads and six arms, each wielding nine swords!

Li Wei used the seawater to suppress the fire spell, and with the thrust of Leviathan, he burst out, his nine swords spinning, his trident piercing the air, and the ice and fire dragons on it converging together, magnificent and dazzling!

"Die!" This strike was something Li Wei had been preparing for a long time.

"You're the one who'll die! Die! With this strike, no matter what legendary knight you are, you're doomed!"

As if he had made up his mind, fireballs began to appear one after another in front of Kane, and fire elements gathered around him.

Finally, a total of five massive fireballs appeared in front of Kane!

Second Ring Spell: Five Fireballs!

A powerful strike composed of five large fireballs!

A massive fireball, overwhelming and unavoidable, swept in.

Li Wei sensed a terrifying heat gathering ahead.

At the same time, the Rock Troll family of four, who had been waiting in the wings, and Green Ghost Katarina's Hellfire all rushed up.

He blocked the main attack of the five fireballs for Li Wei!

The little rock troll was burned to a crisp in the flames and fell into the sea.

Even the rock troll couple were severely injured and fell into the sea.

Green Goblin Carter's newly summoned Hell Warrior has died again, and Green Goblin Carter's reputation in Hell has decreased by one point once more.

Relying on the desperate protection of these living dead, Li Wei, covered in black scales, his body engulfed in karmic fire, protected by frost-covered arms, and with a quick movement of his ostrich legs, rose up from the ground!

The Nine Swords of Asura pierced through the aftershocks of the flames, slicing open a flameless passage!

Li Wei, wielding his trident, pierced through the blanket protecting Kane with a golden cross slash!

Kane's expression changed drastically.

This [Blazing Blanket] is his most powerful magical artifact, combining flight and defense functions.

Even a first-level spell would find it difficult to break through one's defenses.

A mere legendary knight could break through my defenses?

What kind of fighting technique is this? Damn it, this is nothing like a knight's move!

Neptune's Trident is indestructible, crafted entirely from obsidian gold, so Li Wei has no worries about it being damaged.

puff.

The blanket has a tear.

"No!"

Kane was a steady man his whole life, but he was still somewhat careless when facing Levi.

Nine Swords Asura stood behind Li Wei, his nine swords flying and slicing through the void!

Click, click, click...

Kane's carefully constructed magical defenses were broken through layer by layer, and the spells lit up again and again.

Kane, who understands the importance of prudence, also built up a lot of defenses, just like Levi.

However, once Li Wei got close, it marked his defeat.

Crimson Blood, Explode!

At Li Wei's heart, the Crimson Lotus Seed erupted like magma, its gaping maw releasing gushing crimson lava blood that flowed through Li Wei's limbs and bones. Li Wei's entire body turned crimson, his blood vessels transforming into channels of magma. Li Wei's body was like an erupting volcano!

He bathed in flames, and his power surged!

All attributes are taking off again!

Nine Swords Form + Crimson Lotus Form!

Levi only used the Nine Swords form when dealing with Green Goblin Carter.

The black sword on the nine swords of the three-headed, six-armed Asura evil spirit transformed into a flaming sword!

The wrath of the Crimson Lotus will consume everything!

"Break it!"

Accompanied by a devastating blow!

Neptune's trident pierced out with dazzling light!

Nine swords wielded amidst blazing crimson flames!

Kane's magical defenses were completely torn apart by the Nine Swords Asura Fiend who had unleashed his full power!

Li Wei's Neptune trident seized the opportunity to pierce Kane's heart, shattering it and creating a large hole.

The blood of the Fire Master spills across the sea!

Li Wei effortlessly collected Kane's spoils.

Let the Armored Scorpion devour Kane's soul.

He then embalmed Kane's body and buried it on the island.

Li Wei dared not carry the corpse of such a member of the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council on his person.

If the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council had planted a positioning mark similar to that of the Son of Kane within Kane's body, then Levi carrying it would be tantamount to suicide!

After Kane's experience, Levi will be more cautious.

There are so many strange and wonderful spells in this world, you must not be careless!

He plans to come back to the island in a year or two.

If Kane's body hadn't been taken away at that time.

This means that the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council did not investigate Kane's death, or that the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council could not find Kane's body.

By then, the statute of limitations had expired, and Levi could have turned Kane's body into a living dead.

With Kane the Fireman and Carter the Green Ghost as his left and right protectors, plus the Rock Trolls, the final lineup of Levi's Seven Musketeers will be more than half complete!

At that time, it will be virtually invincible below the Second Ring Road!

With Kane's death.

The tracking mark Kane left on Levi's chest completely disappeared.

Li Wei checked himself over and found no other strange marks, which relieved him.

He retrieved the bodies of the rock troll couple who had fallen into the sea. The adult rock trolls had strong defenses, comparable to his own solid black scales. Although they were injured after taking a large fireball, they could still continue to use their abilities.

The two little rock trolls had turned into a pile of charcoal and were completely unusable.

He sighed. He had wanted to reunite the family, but it was all that damned Kane's fault!

Li Wei then extracted the energy core from the dead Hell Warrior's body and erased all traces on the battlefield that might reveal his legendary knight identity, leaving only traces of the Undead Ship spell to confuse the public.

After completing these tasks, Li Wei changed his appearance and rode away on the Dragon King Whale.

Along the way, to avoid being followed, Li Wei took some detours and changed his appearance many times.

Finally, three days later, he returned safely to the Gray Tower as Li Wei.

In this battle, Li Wei slew another senior first-ring wizard.

The way of chivalry has great potential!

It was in that wizard Kane.

Li Wei had a very fruitful harvest.

The harvest of Tai Shi alone far exceeded any previous harvest, amounting to a full six thousand Tai Shi!

Rich, the Wizard Kane is incredibly rich!

Rich and generous!

This single discovery is almost equivalent to the gains Li Wei made from exploring a bizarre realm.

Kane makes a lot of money just from tuition fees, so it's perfectly normal for him to have so much money.

It's said that he used various pretexts to collect tuition fees from his apprentices, and he also frequently gave lectures to earn extra money. Since there weren't many Burning Faction wizards in the Azure Realm, even if Kane was wrong, no one would know. In this way, Kane swindled and exploited his apprentices, making a considerable amount of money.

So Manla always looked worried, concerned about her daughter's tuition fees.

"Sigh, I wonder how Manra is doing."

Li Wei suddenly realized that if he killed Kane, Manra's daughter would have a problem getting into school.

But he couldn't care less about that now.

This situation was too unexpected, and Li Wei had no choice but to do this in order to save his life.

Besides the Tai Shi, an offensive magical artifact, the [Fire Serpent Ring], was also found on Kane.

This is a witchcraft artifact shaped like an ouroboros bracelet.

You can cast the first-level spell, Fire Serpent Dance, using the bracelet!

Besides these, there should be other uses, but Li Wei has not yet figured them out.

Li Wei put it away for the time being, to be used later.

He looked at the blanket with a large hole in it, his face showing regret.

Kane's blanket was the most valuable magical artifact he possessed.

One-ring artifact: Blanket of Flames.

This fiery carpet is made from the fur of a rare first-ring transcendent sea beast. It has extremely strong defensive capabilities and can withstand the impact of ordinary first-ring spells. It even has two spells solidified on it: [Fire Shield] and [Fire Dance in the Sky], one a defensive spell and the other a flight spell.

If placed in the Star Ring Shop, this Blazing Carpet would easily sell for at least a thousand gold coins.

Unfortunately, the carpet of flames was punctured by Li Wei's Neptune trident, but it wasn't a major injury and should still be repairable. However, perhaps only a specialized artifact maker could successfully repair it.

Li Wei could only put it away for the time being and see if he could find a way to repair it later.

The final rewards were meditation techniques, spellbooks, and spellcasting materials.

The most common meditation method in the Burning School is the "Solar Meditation Method," which is similar to Livy's "Deep Sea Meditation Method" and "Earth Meditation Method." They are the most basic, but also the most practical and time-tested meditation methods.

Kane's "Solar Meditation Method" is much more comprehensive than the one Levi bought from the Star Ring Shop.

The book includes content from the Apprentice Chapter, the First Ring Chapter, and even the Second Ring Chapter, so Li Wei doesn't have to worry about the subsequent Burning School Meditation Method.

Aside from the magic tricks he looked down on, Li Wei immediately noticed the magic books he had been eyeing for a long time.

Fireball Technique, Great Fireball Technique, Five Fireball Techniques.

The first two are both first-level spells, but they differ in strength.

The last one is a genuine second-circle spell.

If it weren't for his own undead shielding him from the main impact, he wouldn't have been confident he could withstand the Five Fireballs Technique, with its five massive fireballs hurtling towards him.

The Burning School focuses on attack, so if Li Wei wants to learn Burning School spells, he will definitely learn attack-related spells.

For defensive spells, you can learn the Ocean and Earth spells.

It's worth mentioning that Li Wei also obtained a crimson scroll, which is similar to the scroll used by the Sons of Cairne, except that the pattern on this scroll is not a large fireball, but five fireballs.

This is a one-time spell scroll that has solidified a second-circle spell!

Second Ring Item, Five Fireball Technique Scroll!

Spell scrolls are often quite valuable, since even a wizard apprentice who possesses one can cast second-circle spells without needing spell materials or consuming spell power, as long as they know how to chant the incantation.

This differs from the spells solidified on magical artifacts, which still require the consumption of magical power.

If one's magical power is insufficient, one cannot cast the solidified spells on it. Therefore, even though Li Wei has now obtained a second-ring magical artifact, he is unable to activate the solidified spells on it.

These one-time spell scrolls are very expensive to produce.

Besides the high cost of materials, the most important reason is that these disposable spell scrolls often require the creator to consume their spiritual energy.

Making one or two is fine, but making too many might cause the creator's mental strength to regress instead of improve, and the upper limit of mental strength to keep falling. It's like sacrificing one's own cultivation to make these one-time spell scrolls.

Therefore, a true wizard would only create such magical items for the protection of those they truly care about.

After sorting through Kane's spoils, Li Wei's number of Taishi also exceeded ten thousand.

"I went out and spent so much money, but when I came back, I actually made a profit. How come I can't spend all this money?" Li Wei couldn't help but laugh.

However, after this battle, he understood.

With his current strength, dealing with a first-level senior wizard is not a problem, but it is still not enough to completely overwhelm him, and there is still a risk involved.

Therefore, Li Wei cannot be careless.

Because these senior first-circle wizards have mastered second-circle spell models, if pushed too far, they will forcefully use second-circle spells, which poses a particularly great threat to Li Wei.

"Before advancing to the level of a formal wizard, I still need to try to master more breathing techniques to enhance my self-defense capabilities."

"After sparring with the Imperial Fist, I need to go into seclusion for a while. Right now, I lack nothing—no money, no magical artifacts, no meditation techniques, no spellbooks. I lack nothing except cultivation."

"Even if I kill Kane, I wonder if the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council will be able to find out that it was me who did it."

Li Wei still had some worries. He felt that if the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council really used mid-level or even high-level wizards to investigate this matter, given their magical abilities, they should be able to find out about him.

As far as Li Wei knew, there was a type of high-level magic that could even replay events that had occurred in a region in the recent past. If someone who possessed this magic tried to investigate, they might be exposed.

Of course, this is unlikely. High-ranking wizards are few in number, and they usually hold high positions in the Pan-Plane Wizard Council, busy with their magical research or interdimensional travel.

The Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council wouldn't bother such a powerful entity over the death of a mere first-level wizard.

This is similar to a situation in the world of cultivation where a Qi Refining stage cultivator dies, and a Nascent Soul stage ancestor is dispatched to thoroughly investigate the cause of death.

So Li Wei stopped being paranoid and scaring himself all the time.

He's already killed people, what else can we do?

In that situation, if he hadn't killed Kane, he would have been the one to suffer.

I have been as discreet and cautious as possible. If anyone is to blame, it is Kane's good-for-nothing son, who actually tried to harm me.

Think about this.

Li Wei then returned to his normal spiritual practice.

It took less than half a month.

His period of weakness after using the blood of the Crimson Lotus has passed.

At the same time, Li Weixin began to understand the basics of solar meditation.

This speed was something Li Wei couldn't even imagine when he first learned the deep-sea meditation method.

Li Wei————

Solar Meditation: Level 1 (1/1000)

……

As Li Xiuxing mastered more and more meditation techniques and acquired an affinity talent like the Dance of the God of Fire, the speed at which he learned new meditation techniques also increased.

Therefore, talent and skill are really important.

It would be even better if there were meditation potions that could aid in the practice of meditation.

……

The year 1021 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Flowers.

The time for Li Wei's sparring session with the Imperial Fist has arrived, and so far, no one from the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council has come knocking, which has given Li Wei a temporary sense of relief.

He set off after getting himself into peak condition.

The uninhabited sea area located between the gray tower and the sighing sea breeze.

A tiny island peeking out from the sea.

The night was as still as water, and the sea was calm.

The waves crashed against the rocks on the shore.

The Fist of the Empire sat patiently on a giant rock on the deserted island. His imposing body seemed as stable as the rock beneath his feet, remaining unmoved as the waves crashed against him.

On the shimmering sea in the distance, the Basilosaurus cuts through the waves, and the whale rider Levi rides the waves.

"You've arrived."

"I am coming."

"Are you ready?"

"Of course it's good."

"Before you stands the Tuva Empire, the Storm Destroyer, the legendary knight, Mudi! May I ask what Lord Levi's legendary title is?"

"I have no legendary title, just an unknown nobody. If I had to name one, then... I'd call myself a Extreme Knight. By the way, weren't you born of the Storm? How did you become the Storm Destroyer?"

"That's all in the past. From now on, I am no longer the Fist of the Empire, I am simply Mu Di, the gravedigger of the Church of Storms! Speaking of which, the title of Ultimate Knight is quite fitting. You and I are both the pinnacle of knighthood. I think it's not too much to call each other friends, is it?"

"Haha, of course, that's fine. I think 'fellow Daoist' sounds better than 'friend'."

"Fellow Daoist?"

"Yes."

"Fellow Daoist...interesting. In that case, fellow Daoist, please enlighten me in this battle!"

"Come forth, legendary battle!"

Li Wei stepped on the Dragon King Whale and leaped dozens of meters to the island, looking like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey!

Emperor Mu laughed heartily, pounding his chest with a thunderous boom, the sound like a war drum echoing throughout the arena.

He rose abruptly from the ground, and the island seemed to tremble; the boulder beneath his feet crumbled into rubble.

Li Wei's body was covered with layers of black scales, and his forked tongue flickered, exuding a chilling aura!

"Black Scales, I've never seen such black aura in the Tuva Empire."

Emperor Mu's expression was calm. Countless black hairs emerged from the surface of his body, his back seemed to have become broader, and his chest deeper.

He almost transformed into the appearance of a giant black ape.

"The breathing technique I practice is called the Sacred Ape Breathing Technique! In ancient times, only the Crimson Lotus Breathing Technique of the Crimson Lotus Clan could rival it. Since you have been able to cultivate to the legendary level, your ancestral breathing technique must not be anything unknown either."

Mu Di, resembling a giant black ape, clenched his fist and collided with Li Wei's black-scaled fist.

Li Wei didn't want to reveal too many of his breathing techniques to Mu Di, since Mu Di, unlike other enemies, truly understood the way of the knight. Therefore, Li Wei hadn't used any other breathing techniques until now, fighting entirely with the eleventh-level Black Serpent Breathing Technique.

A clash of legends, a display of boundless heroism!

Li Wei laughed loudly, his aura soaring to the heavens.

"Mudi, you still don't understand. The quality of a breathing technique means nothing. Past glories will also come to an end. You may also feel that the way of chivalry is not about being a legend. I, the ultimate knight Li Wei, am not content to be just a legendary knight. I want to use my knightly body to chase after wizards and stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods!"

Emperor Mu, I wish to establish an organization called the Twilight Knights.

After this battle, I would like to invite you to join this organization so we can exchange ideas and grow together.

So far, there are only the Blood Knight and me in this organization.

"Emperor Mu, will you accept my invitation?"

The two muscular men fought fiercely, locked in a tense and exhilarating brawl.

Li Wei has gradually come to accept Mu Di as a person. During the great battle, Li Wei had an idea: he wanted to build a force, a force composed entirely of legendary knights. He wanted to invite more like-minded legendary knights to exchange legendary experiences and breathing techniques with each other, in order to seek more possibilities for breakthroughs!

"Very good, you're arrogant enough to actually want to break through that legendary barrier. Li Wei, I, Mu Di, also acknowledge you! I will join the Twilight Knights. By the way, is the Blood Knight also in this organization? Wasn't he dead? Can you take me to see him? He was my idol when I was a child!" Mu Di looked incredulous.

While punching, Li Wei said without changing his expression, "That's right, the Blood Knight is also inside, but he's in the mortal realm."

Li Wei didn't care whether the old man Anderson agreed or not; he just wanted to get him on board first. The title of Blood Knight was something he couldn't compare to.

Moreover, that old man would definitely love to join such a legendary knight exchange organization.

So Li Wei acted first and informed Li Wei later.

"Alright, enough talk, let's fight seriously! I'm going to unleash my power!" Mu Di said, his body swelling again, his ape-like form shaking mountains and the earth, his extremely oppressive fist breaking through.

"Well done!" Li Wei's solidified black scales emitted a metallic clang, and he transformed into a noise machine!

The black-scaled fist and the black-haired giant hand collided again, an invisible shockwave stirring up sand and dust, sending clouds of smoke billowing across the island.

Li Wei's defense was stronger, and Mu Di's power was greater. Although Mu Di's attacks were fierce, Li Wei managed to neutralize them every time.

Both have their strengths and weaknesses, and for a time it was difficult to determine who was better.

However, Li Wei has not yet used the Golden Cross Slash, nor has he used the Nine Swords Form.

Moreover, as the night deepens, the special effects of [Night Favorite] gradually improve, and by midnight, one's condition will reach its peak under normal conditions.

So far, Li Wei has only been engaging in tentative exchanges with Emperor Mu.

The two nimbly maneuvered across the island, leaving a trail of destruction and flying debris in their wake.

On this vast and endless sea, in solitude and loneliness, a rare and intense battle between two legendary knights unfolded without any spectators.

If this were on Earth, what a dazzling and unparalleled battle it would be! A momentous event worthy of being recorded in history, and celebrated by countless bards!

Unfortunately, this is the wizarding world.

Compared to the proud, powerful, and busy wizards.

A legendary knight? What is that?

At this moment, a sense of mutual appreciation, a feeling of kinship between legends appreciating legends, arose spontaneously between Livy and Mudi, who were both struggling at the bottom of the wizarding world.

Even tough guys like Li Wei and Muhammad have tender hearts!

These two legends, both insignificant and extraordinary, clashed time and again, their battles ending in a draw, their superiority uncertain.

Li Wei could tell that Emperor Mu had also learned quite a few breathing techniques, but they were all rudimentary, non-bloodline breathing techniques. Emperor Mu seemed to want to learn other breathing techniques to become a polygonal warrior or break through to the legendary level.

Unfortunately, he didn't have a proficiency panel and couldn't break through the shackles of his bloodline. So Li Wei didn't use other breathing techniques like Red Lotus or Blood Beast to bully Emperor Mu. Bullying fellow Daoists like that would be pointless.

The battle continued, and as the night deepened, Li Wei's body was forced to grow stronger under the influence of the Night's Favorite effect.

He really didn't want to become stronger, but this passive effect left him no choice.

On the other hand, Emperor Mu was finding it increasingly difficult.

As midnight approached, Li Wei sighed inwardly, then burst into laughter, his fighting spirit soaring. His Golden Ripple Palm, which had already withdrawn its power, directly shattered Mu Di's black fur, sending Mu Di flying backward, spitting blood, and landing in the sea.

Li Wei noticed that Emperor Mu's blood seemed to have a faint golden hue. He didn't say anything, but instead smiled and said...

"I won this battle today!"

At this moment, in his peak state as the [Night Favorite], Li Wei unleashed his Golden Ripple Divine Palm, striking the island with all his might.

A snap.

Ripples spread out, cracks spread like a spider web, and seawater poured in.

The island has cracked.

Holy Ape Mudi vs. Black Serpent Livi!

Legendary battle, winner:

Yakuza Knight, Levi!
