Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 189 After the Legend, the Bloodthirsty Knight! From now on, I will be the knight's guide! (Long chapter, please vote!)

Li Wei noticed that, unlike in the past, this time, the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique was not at its limit after the twelfth level.

After incorporating the Golden Horn Breathing Technique, the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique can not only be upgraded to the twelfth level, but Li Wei can also advance to the thirteenth level in one go.

After breaking through the shackles of legend, it seems that many things are different from before the legend.

"This also means that, apart from those few breathing techniques that haven't yet reached their limits, I won't need to scramble for materials to break through the limits of my breathing techniques for a long time."

Of course, given Li Wei's personality, he would definitely let Andrew continue collecting them, just in case.

Regardless, this relieved Li Wei.

There are only so many breathing techniques in the world. If you can only level up once every time you break through a limit, then as the level of the breathing technique increases, there simply won't be enough breathing techniques to break through limits.

In hindsight, Li Wei was overthinking things.

He looked at the proficiency panel.

[Newborn Scales: You have passed the stage of black energy transforming into scales. The budding bloodline within you has granted you true golden serpent scales. Although these scales resemble those of a newly hatched golden serpent larva, they still possess extraordinary defensive capabilities. This effect can be upgraded as your Golden Serpent Breathing Technique improves.]

Li Wei internally visualizes the heart.

On the outer layer of the furnace's heart, the winding golden snakes now appear more real than ever before, their eyes seemingly possessing true life and becoming more lively.

"Therefore, the life seed of a knight is actually... the seed of bloodline. When one enters the knight stage, the extremely faint trace of the bloodline of the primordial ancestor within the body is condensed into the life seed."

The so-called breathing method involves cultivating oneself by consuming secret medicines and using specific breathing rhythms and postures to continuously refine the seed of life, making the power of the bloodline within the body increasingly concentrated.

Knight, great knight, legendary knight.

The seed of life undergoes transformation time and time again.

Now, at my current level, the Seed of Life has transformed into the [Seed of Bloodline].

Li Wei gazed intently at the golden snake-shaped bloodline seed; he could sense the miniature golden snake's yearning for bloodline power.

Only by constantly acquiring bloodlines can the Golden Serpent grow. Breathing techniques are the methods, but the bloodlines themselves are the raw materials!

This longing.

This made Li Wei realize something.

"In that case, this new realm after the legendary can be called... the Bloodthirst Realm."

"If the legendary knight is the blood-awakening knight, the starting point for the awakening of bloodline and the beginning of the extraordinary, then the blood-thirsty knight is the starting point for the growth of bloodline."

Just as a newborn baby awakens and yearns for breast milk, the golden serpent bloodline within me has awakened; it too is thirsty, it yearns… for blood. Legend is the embryonic stage of budding, blood thirst is the postnatal nursing period.

In this way, Li Wei, based on his own understanding, created the true realm beyond the legend.

Bloodthirsty Knight!

Once Li Wei has a deeper understanding of the Bloodthirst realm, he may be able to summarize a feasible method for a legendary knight to break through to the Bloodthirst knight level.

If the path of chivalry has no future, then Li Wei will be the only guide from this day forward!

"Now, I need to test the defensive capabilities of the Newborn Scales and see how much of a defensive boost the 12th-tier Golden Serpent has given me."

Li Wei stretched his limbs, stood up, and flicked his forked tongue, waving it in the air. The forked tongue in his mouth was much longer now. If the forked tongue was only one foot long before, it could now extend to three feet!

This is also the change that occurs in the extraordinary organs after the twelfth level of the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique.

Li Wei's snake tongue perception range has expanded compared to when he was at the eleventh level.

Furthermore, the accuracy of his perception and the storage capacity of his database have also improved.

Apart from that, no new legendary organs were born after reaching the Blood Thirst Realm.

Or rather, the newly born scales are actually the new legendary organs.

As for the single horn on its forehead, it has also undergone new changes. The horn is more solid, and there are spiral patterns on it.

However, something still seemed to be blocking the horn, and Li Wei couldn't shoot it out.

"It seems that this horn is some kind of organ that releases powerful attacks, so it has very high requirements for bloodline."

Li Wei touched the unicorn horn, and the feeling of touching it was strange.

Legend has it that the Golden Horned Beast's single horn can unleash terrifying rays of light capable of annihilating an entire world.

Therefore, Li Wei believed that this unicorn would not disappoint him.

As soon as Li Wei came out, he saw Ace bullying Drogon.

After such a long period of PUA, Zhuo Geng has been completely captivated by Li Wei's personal charm.

"Ace, come here." Li Wei said coldly.

Ace floated over slowly.

Li Wei gazed at the tyrant and the corpse digger standing on that side.

"Go in and spar with me for a bit," Li Wei said.

Ace nodded, how could he dare to disobey?

It burrowed into the body of the corpse digger, and then the corpse digger was engulfed in crimson flames, rumbling and shaking the earth.

Reid, Drogon, Ego, Leviathan, and others watched the battle with curiosity.

Of all the pets Li Wei keeps now, only Ace, who rides the Corpse Digger, can barely put up a fight against him.

Li Wei arrived at the sea.

He waved to Ace.

"Let's begin! Don't hold back, attack me with all your might!"

Li Wei spoke calmly and confidently.

The corpse digger nodded, and then the machinery roared, and the alchemical runes lit up.

Whoosh!

The corpse digger flew directly into the air and shot towards the sea, creating a wave on the surface.

boom!

A colossal object weighing fifty tons collided with Li Wei.

In terms of sheer strength, even Levi, who possesses legendary power, is no match for the Corpse Digger.

After a tremendous collision, countless splashes of water erupted on the sea surface.

Li Wei retreated a hundred meters on the sea surface.

"That's great, Ace. Your teamwork with the Corpse Digger is getting better and better," Li Wei praised.

Ace couldn't resist praise; once he was praised, he got all excited.

The Tyrant's shield, just like Captain America's shield, flew towards Li Wei with a loud whooshing sound.

"Well done!"

Dark golden scales appeared one by one on Li Wei's right fist, exuding an aura of ancient wilderness.

These scales seem to come from distant years, having traversed a long period of time.

boom!

The shield was smashed away by Li Wei's punch.

Li Wei also retreated some distance.

These dark gold scales hummed, and their surface seemed to be covered with cracks, but as they shimmered with golden light, the cracks quickly healed.

These golden rays are essentially the golden snake black energy within Li Wei's body. However, after advancing to the legendary level, the black energy of various breathing techniques is no longer black, but has its own distinct characteristics.

The Corpse Digger's powerful shield slam could shatter almost any first-ring wizard's prized magical defenses, but it failed to break Levi's scales.

Li Wei leaped across the sea, his feet treading on the waves, soaring dozens of meters high before his fists clashed fiercely with the giant axe of the corpse digger.

Click.

Under the tyrant's power, comparable to that of a second-ring transcendent being, the giant axe barely tore through Li Wei's scale defenses, causing blood to flow freely and his hand bones to shatter.

The tyrant seemed about to stop, but Li Wei said, "Continue!"

His bloodied palms shattered many harmless scales, revealing the mangled flesh and bare white bones beneath, as well as blue runes.

Even Livi's scales couldn't completely block the Tyrant's strongest axe attack, and a first-level spell like Body of Rock could only weaken its power.

After all, someone once used the Corpse Digger's powerful melee ability to defeat a stronger opponent, tearing apart a second-circle wizard's defensive force field and killing him.

Although Li Wei's newly born scales possess the defensive power of a normal second-circle spell, they are still newly born and need some time to grow.

Thanks to Blood Ember's powerful regenerative abilities, Li Wei's bloodied and mangled hands have been completely healed, with scales covering them again.

The tyrant unleashed a terrifying barrage of alchemical cannon fire!

boom!

This time, Li Wei wasn't thrown far.

He emerged from the firelight unharmed, except for his scales being slightly charred.

The alchemical cannon that once blew off some of his scales can no longer break through Li Wei's defenses.

Finally, after controlling the Tyrant and fighting himself for a hundred rounds, Levi reluctantly ended the battle, considering that Ace was about to die.

After Li Wei's test.

He felt that the current defensive strength of the newly born scales was roughly equivalent to a C-level second-circle defensive spell.

As the proficiency of the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique increases, the defensive power of the Newborn Scale will also continue to increase. Li Wei estimates that when the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique approaches the thirteenth level, the Newborn Scale should be roughly at the level of an A-grade second-ring defensive spell.

In that case, Li Wei would be equivalent to a second-circle wizard, possessing a persistent defensive force field, and he wouldn't need to consume magical power, only physical strength.

Having adapted to almost all the changes after the twelfth level of the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique, Li Wei looked at the breathing techniques he had left.

The three breathing techniques—Red Lotus, Blood Beast, and Black Whale—are also progressing towards the twelfth rank. Among them, Red Lotus and Black Whale, due to their extraordinary secret medicines, are cultivating much faster than Blood Beast.

The Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique is also nearing its eleventh-level limit, with the Holy Ape Breathing Technique close behind.

"Next, I can prepare to return to the human world, meet Anderson and the Black Knight, and while I'm at it, capture a few native vampires and try to bring them back," Li Wei murmured to himself.

He now possesses the defensive power of a second-ring, and with his three forms and the power of the Golden Whirlwind, his offensive power is also at the level of a second-ring.

He believed he possessed combat strength roughly equivalent to a second-tier player.

Things that we didn't dare to try before due to insufficient strength, we will do one by one in the next few years.

Leaving aside the giant ape on the Loess Continent, that creature is suspected to be an ancient variant with immense power. Li Wei feels he needs to advance to the second ring of his wizarding realm before he can confidently subdue it. The same applies to the Sea Dragon Crocodile in the uninhabited waters of the Ninth and Eighth Districts.

As for wizarding cultivation, Li Wei's current mental strength is only 40 points. Although this is considered a very high level among senior wizards of the first ring, it is still not the limit.

Over the years, he has not learned any new first-circle spells, but instead intends to dedicate his remaining mental energy to runewords and the second-circle spell model he plans to build.

In summary, given Li Wei's current speed of meditation practice, he should be able to become a second-circle wizard before he turns fifty, which is around 1040 in the Holy Radiance Calendar.

As for the Lost Caverns of Pan, which he had previously planned to visit, Li Wei intended to check out the specific situation there in a few days.

After cultivating for a few more days and consolidating his Bloodthirsty Knight realm, Li Wei discovered that the effects of the Golden Serpent Elixir he had previously refined had decreased considerably after entering the Bloodthirsty Realm, but he could still barely cultivate.

At the current rate, it would take about ten years to advance to the thirteenth level.

According to Li Wei's estimation, the thirteenth level of the breathing technique should correspond to the three environmental realms of the wizard.

This speed is neither fast nor slow, and it's barely acceptable. If he had the second-level Golden Serpent Secret Medicine, he might be able to advance to the thirteenth level in seven or eight years.

"Next, we need to quickly raise the wizard to the second level and master some second-circle spells. Then we'll subdue the Sea Dragon Crocodile and use the second-level Golden Serpent Elixir as soon as possible."

With his strength greatly increased, Li Wei did not forget the Gray Tower.

He left Blackfire Island to return to teaching, and also wanted to find out about the Tower Master's recent situation.

The Gray Tower.

The atmosphere inside the tower now seems different from before the Great Expedition era.

During times of war, everyone carries a great deal of invisible pressure, which transforms into motivation, driving wizards to train even harder.

"Teacher, has the Tower Master sent any news yet?" Li Wei asked, seeing Mai Lin watering the flowers.

"That's it. That guy is such a worry. I wonder if he's been drafted away?" Mylene sighed.

Only Li Wei and Mai Lin knew about the tower master's departure, because they were worried that there was a mole within the tower who would leak the news.

Whale Song Island has been dormant for a long time, and Li Wei estimates that with its resources, it has probably recovered quite well.

In the coming chaotic autumn, this ambitious organization may make some underhanded moves.

These are all things that Li Wei is worried about.

"Teacher, I plan to leave the wizarding world for a while," Li Wei said.

"Back to the human world?" Mylene asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Do you perhaps still have some attachments in the mortal realm? That place is not suitable for wizards to cultivate. It's alright for apprentices, but if a formal wizard or higher stays in the mortal realm for too long, their cultivation may regress instead of progress. There's a reason why Sauron, the ancestor of wizards, chose the Land of the Believers as the home of wizards. Well... since you've already made your decision, you must have had your own thorough considerations, so I won't try to persuade you anymore."

I've heard things are quite chaotic in the human world right now. If you insist on going, then be careful. Try not to use your magical abilities in the human world, and don't reveal your wizard identity. The Seven Gods and the Wizarding Council have always been at odds. Although the Church of the Seven Kingdoms is currently weak and feeble, even a centipede with a hundred legs doesn't die easily. Remember not to clash with the Church.

Mai Lin reminded her.

"Teacher, I know. I'm just going to the human world to take care of some things. I'll probably be back soon."

Livy knew that wizards were unpopular among humans.

Ever since Sauron, the progenitor of wizards, led the legendary wizards in a true war against some of the Seven Gods long ago, the relationship between the Seven Gods and the wizards has not been good.

According to the wizarding general knowledge course, after that battle, the Heavenly Father, one of the seven gods, instructed the Church of Holy Light to fabricate false myths in the human world to confuse the public and smear wizards, saying that wizards were the product of the remains of saints and that they were banished to the realm of the unbelievers because they were punished by the gods.

In fact, wizards voluntarily entered the realm of the unbelievers because after the war between the gods and wizards, the elemental power of the human world gradually thinned and dissipated, entering the so-called "end times".

Only physical cultivators like knights, who do not require elemental power, or those from the four great families who combine bloodline and magic, can barely cultivate in the mortal realm.

But the wizard knew that the elemental power wouldn't just disappear for no reason.

Ultimately, the wizards discovered subspaces that were both dependent on and independent of the human world.

This place is much larger than the human world, and the elemental power here is much denser. Moreover, the power of the astral gods can hardly penetrate into this place. It is simply a paradise for wizards to cultivate.

This is the realm of the faithless, which is also the origin of the wizarding world.

Currently, the relationship between the Seven Gods and the Wizarding Civilization is very delicate. The Seven Gods are very powerful, and their followers are spread across many multidimensional planes.

However, the seven gods cannot leave the astral plane and can only interfere in the multiverse by appearing as saints. Or they can send their "angels" to travel to the mortal realm.

This created a subtle, tacit balance with the wizarding civilization.

The Seven Gods do not enter the Warp to interfere with the wizards, and the wizards do not go to the mortal realm to interfere with the gods' faith. Everyone lives in peace, and this remains the case to this day.

However, Li Wei's main purpose in going to the human world this time is to capture vampires, and he does not intend to clash with the church for the time being.

And so, Li Wei and the Tower took a long leave of absence, and the pharmacist course was taught by one of his advanced pharmaceutical apprentices.

He probably won't be coming to the Gray Tower as often for a while.

After bidding farewell to his teacher, Li Wei returned to Blackfire Island to continue his training.

Before long, Li Wei also reached the limit of his Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique.

Li Wei——————

Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique: Eleventh Level (Limit), Special Effect: Silver Dragon Spine (Solid State).

……

This Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique was obtained from Earl Silver Mountain, and now Li Xiuwei has pushed it to its limit, thus fulfilling Earl Silver Mountain's dream of cultivating his ancestral breathing technique to a legendary level.

Following the legendary Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique, a similar special effect was created, which is the Dragon Spine, representing extraordinary endurance.

The Silver Dragon Spine is just a higher level, but in essence it is no different from the Dragon Spine.

The legendary organ that emerged after the legendary Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Method was Li Wei's "tendon".

Within Li Wei's body, those meridians, as condensed as mercury, were attached to his limbs and bones; he called them "silver meridians."

Li Wei has not yet fully understood the effects of the Silver Tendon. Based on his preliminary experimental results, the Silver Tendon slightly enhances Li Wei's physical attributes such as flexibility, explosive power, and endurance.

Apart from this, Li Wei has not discovered any other uses for the silver tendons.

He always felt that the function of this tendon was not limited to this, and that he might need to gradually explore its potential.

After reaching the limit of the Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique, Li Wei used the previous Humpback Dragon Breathing Technique and the rudimentary level Endurance Breathing Technique as materials to break the limit of the Silver Mountain Dragon.

After breaking the limit, the Hunchback Dragon Breathing Technique left Li Wei with a slightly ugly camel hump as a legacy, which, like the blood sac, became a relic of the era.

To be honest, the hunchbacked dragon breathing technique was indeed a bit ugly, so Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

If you were to use the Hunchback Dragon Breathing Technique as your main endurance training method, your appearance would drop by at least 50%.

In this way, Li Wei has already gathered the legendary attributes of defense, strength, endurance, speed, and physique, leaving only the legendary attribute of perception.

Perception-based breathing techniques are extremely rare, and it's even rarer to see someone cultivate them directly to the legendary level, so Li Wei decided to leave it to fate.

With his current top-tier perception and vision, combined with the Black Serpent's Faith, it's barely enough.

Not to mention, Li Wei himself is a wizard, and wizards can also use mental power and detection spells to perceive things.

Three months after breaking through the limits of the Silver Mountain Dragon Breathing Technique, Li Wei finally figured out the function of the Silver Tendon.

During a sparring session with a corpse digger, Li Wei discovered that as his body's muscles stretched and contracted during the intense battle, the silver tendons densely packed within him began to release a pale blue current under friction, much like leaky high-voltage wires.

This discovery shocked Li Wei immensely.

He became an electric eel from another world in Canada?

The purpose of the silver strands is actually to generate electricity!

After some analysis, Li Wei concluded that the Silver Tendon can only release electricity during Li Wei's high-intensity combat or exercise.

The current intensity is roughly equivalent to a first-level Thunder faction spell.

This discovery filled Li Wei with ecstatic joy.

Based on this ability of the silver tendons, he created a new move.

Lightning strike!

The key to Lightning Strike is to unleash the maximum electrical power of the Silver Tendon through high-speed attacks.

It can inflict physical damage as well as magical damage, enough to electrocute or paralyze powerful enemies.

It's a pity that such a powerful move...

Li Wei, however, could not find a suitable opponent to spar with.

Because the Corpse Digger is immune to ordinary electric attacks, and Levi's other pets are too weak.

For a moment, Li Wei felt a profound sense of loneliness, as if his life were as desolate as snow.

He wasted no more time and began preparing for his earthly journey.

Of course, before heading to the human world, he had to first visit the lost labyrinth of Pan.

The year 1037 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the month of Green Grass.

Year 2 of the Great Expedition Era.

After more than a year of intensive recruitment efforts across the entire territory, all ten battle groups have completed their preparations.

Led by legendary wizards, a grand expedition across the five realms began.

Because the five rebellious federations are quite far from the wizarding world, this expedition will take a considerable amount of time just to travel there.

Even with the most advanced teleportation technology in the Wizarding World today, teleportation can only be carried out within the current plane or nearby planes. To embark on expeditions across multiple planes, one still needs to utilize the legendary wizard's "Sky City" for high-speed travel in the Dark Lands.

Sky City is the most advanced war fortress developed by the legendary wizards of the Pan-Dimensional Wizarding Council, and one of the few means of transportation that can safely traverse the Dark Lands.

So far, such sky cities are only available to legendary wizards.

Besides, only high-ranking wizards can traverse the Dark Land with their primordial spirits, but they will face attacks from various unknown dangers in the Dark Land.

The five legendary wizards leading this expedition are: Dragonfire Wizard Rego of the Burning Faction, Deep Blue Sage Luther of the Ocean Faction, Frost Witch Gulweg of the Frost Faction, Thousand Mountains Undying Alexander of the Earth Faction, and Storm Guardian Marvin of the Storm School.

These five legendary wizards, shining like stars, are now, under the watchful eyes of the entire wizarding world, piloting their respective sky cities. Using the legendary spells solidified on their sky cities, they temporarily tear apart the thick crystal wall surrounding the warp, heading towards the boundless, dark land.

As Sky City slowly disappeared into the dark crack, the crystal wall slowly healed.

"The Great Expedition has begun! Charge!"

"Only wizards are immortal, only truth endures!"

……

Sky City, imbued with the essence of wizarding civilization, slowly disappeared.

Li Wei saw that shocking scene in the newspaper.

At this moment, even he couldn't help but feel his heart surge with excitement and passion!

I can't wait to set foot in Sky City and follow in the footsteps of that legendary wizard to conquer the five realms!

"This is the greatness of wizard civilization: not in the brilliance of individuals, but in the charm of the group!"

We started from humble beginnings, banded together for warmth, and overcame numerous hardships. Generation after generation of wizards stood on the shoulders of their predecessors, pursuing the unattainable truth and giving rise to a brilliant and glorious wizarding civilization!

We, with our mortal bodies, touched the authority of God and performed extraordinary deeds!

We have endured countless wars of civilization, we have stood shoulder to shoulder with the gods, and we have fought a bloody battle with the abyss for thousands of years. We will not fall, nor will we admit defeat!

Because we are wizards!

—Grand Council Chairman, Blazing Sun Wizard Emon, pre-battle speech in the second year of the Great Crusade!

Amon's speech, like his self-created legendary spell Eternal Sun, ignited the passion deep within every wizard's heart.

In the boundless darkness, countless stars twinkled, shining like stars in the darkness.

These are planes of existence, most of which are chaotic lands unsuitable for the birth of life and civilization, with only a few being civilized planes.

The Sky City of the Deep Blue Sage quietly set off towards the destination of this expedition.

On this war fortress called the City of Deep Blue, the wizards of the Ninth and Tenth Warbands, led by the Deep Blue Sage, were curiously gazing at this sight they had never seen before.

Among all these wizards, two spheres stood out.

One big ball and one small ball.

It was the tower owner and his wife Stella.

"Did you tell them about your participation in the expedition?" Stella asked.

"I told them, and I reckon they'll get the news in a while, and then they'll curse me for being a bastard who secretly ran away with his wife and abandoned the Gray Tower," Herman said.

"You're definitely not human, and neither am I. We're both balls. Herman, can't you have a more sophisticated sense of aesthetics..." Stella said helplessly.

"My aesthetic sense is very sophisticated. According to the wizard's research, the sphere is the most reasonable and perfect shape in the universe, so the planes are basically spherical. The sun and stars in the Dark Land are also spheres," Herman argued.

Stella snorted, rolled to the edge of Sky City, and stared silently at the endless darkness.

Herman rolled over and said, "I've thought a lot during these years of preparing to resurrect you."

Since we've already embarked on this path of no return—alchemy—we might as well go even further.

After the start of this great expedition, I heard that the Blue Sages' warband was heading to the plane of the Alchemy School, the Dimension of Myriad Machines, and I made up my mind.

"We two will seize this opportunity to go there, hone our skills in battle, and pursue a higher level of alchemy."

"What if we die in the Myriad Machines Dimension?"

"Then let them be transformed into alchemical remains, buried deep within the earth, so that we may all watch the world change from sea to land."

……

Endless sea, gray tower.

"What? Herman! You old bastard!"

It was rare for Mai Lin to swear, but she did so very gently.

She looked at the letter the messenger had brought.

"My dearest Mylene, please forgive my abrupt departure. I recently resurrected my beloved wife Stella."

By the time you read this letter, the two of us—no, the two of us alchemical spheres—should already be on our way to Sky City in the Dimension of Ten Thousand Machines.

For many years of my life, I have strived and struggled for the wizard tower that my teacher Salman passed down to me.

I still remember your freckled face, looking so nervous and uneasy when you first came to the tower, as well as Marco, that serious little boy, and Tim, that little guy who could get along with anyone.

During this time, some wizards came and went, and I didn't try to stop them. Only you, on this godforsaken little island in the Outer Ninth District, accompanied me through a long period of time.

After saying all this, I just want to tell you...

I'm passing this tower master position to you, Xiaomailing!

Are you happy or not? Unexpected or not!

Now there are so many excellent wizards in the tower, and there is this young man named Li Wei whom I can't understand at all. No matter what difficulties we encounter in the future, we should not be afraid, but face them bravely!

Of course, if you encounter any danger that you cannot handle after I leave, please do not hesitate to seek help from Morty, the Star Watcher of Sector Nine. Morty is a friend of my teacher Salman, and he will lend a hand.

— Herman, written in the second year of the Great Expedition Era.

……

The year 1037 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Flowers.

Blackfire Island.

Li Wei looked at the letter sent by Teacher Mai Lin with a worried expression.

"Master Tower, this..."

Li Wei wanted to curse but stopped himself.

I, this heartless man who abandoned his territory and people, seem to have no right to speak ill of the tower lord.

It's only right to pursue the life you want.

Regardless, the Tower Master successfully resurrected Stella, and Levi was genuinely happy for him.

"The Myriad Machines Dimension is the birthplace of the alchemy school. Perhaps the Tower Master, this alchemy genius, will have a place here. I should be worried about myself."

After Li Wei finished tidying up Blackfire Island, he prepared enough secret medicine for himself to use for about a year, which drained the extraordinary creatures on Blackfire Island one by one.

Once these creatures had recovered sufficiently, Li Wei left them behind to guard Blackfire Island.

He then took the four great generals—the Undead, the Armored Scorpion, Ace, and the Tyrant—and left Blackfire Island aboard the Leviathan.

He was going to the Sea of ​​Stars, and then using a warp portal, he would travel to Earth.

Having been away from the mortal realm for nearly twenty years, he rose from a lowly wizarding apprentice to a first-ring senior wizard.

It also broke through the legendary constraints that had plagued so many legendary knights.

Now, he, Li Wei, an unknown figure in the wizarding world, has returned!

Of course, before heading to the human world, Li Wei planned to take a look at the lost labyrinth of Pan.

half a month later.

Li Wei arrived at a dangerous sea area.

This is the location of the lost Labyrinth of Pan.

According to the records on the nautical charts, Livy activated his full senses to search for clues about ancient ruins.

In dangerous waters, the number of marine animals is significantly greater than outside.

When Li Wei arrived at the area marked on the map, he found that although there was an island there, there was no sign of it at all.

"Could the island have sunk?"

Li Wei gazed at the bottomless sea below, which seemed like the maw of a colossal beast that devoured everything.

Based on his current perception, he could sense that there was no danger in the deep sea, only some first-ring sea beasts.

"Let's go down and take a look."

Levi hid inside Leviathan's mouth, letting Leviathan swim towards the deep sea.

Hundreds of feet, thousands of feet...

The depth of the sea in this place amazed Li Wei.

It's a thousand feet deep, but there's still no bottom.

It sensed no danger ahead, and the spider sensed no warning.

Li Wei continued to dive down.

Unbeknownst to him, he had reached a depth of about 5,000 feet at the bottom of the sea.

The water pressure here is so great that even the extraordinary creature Leviathan is not entirely comfortable with it.

Generally speaking, Leviathan prefers to stay at a depth of about a thousand feet. Although it can go deeper, it rarely does so.

In the deep sea, because no one is watching, all sorts of ugly, superhuman creatures swim past Leviathan.

Li Wei used his senses to explore his surroundings, but in such a deep, lightless sea, even top-notch eyesight was practically useless.

After careful exploration, Li Wei discovered a row of giant underwater stones arranged in an eight-pointed star pattern on the seabed plain thousands of feet below.

"What is this?"

Li Wei dared not approach, sensing the situation from a distance.

He tried to walk down, but the hairs on his arms started to stand on end.

"No, it's dangerous down there, we can't go down."

Li Wei shook his head and decisively left the deep-sea area.

Once back on the surface of the sea and out into the light of day, that feeling of unease slowly disappeared.

It is obvious that the megalith could not have grown in such a regular pattern, displaying a complex eight-pointed star design.

This is how the giant rocks were forcibly arranged into some kind of magic array using immense force.

From Li Wei's perspective, which is now close to that of a first-ring magic array wizard, this magic array seems to be some kind of sealing magic array.

"Forget it, I'm not curious anymore. This should be the lost Pan's Labyrinth, but it's beyond my current level of cultivation."

Li Wei sighed and left the area without hesitation.

Not long after Li Wei left.

On the deep seabed plain, in the center of the eight-pointed star megalithic formation, a crack suddenly appeared.

A deep red light emanated from the crevice, revealing the blood-red flesh walls and the dense white bone spurs attached to them.

"Pan..."

A deep sound echoed in the deep sea.

……

The year 1037 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Flowers.

Levi, aboard the Leviathan, arrived at an island at the border of the Ninth District and the Inner Ring Sea.

This is Bass Island, also known as "Sailing Island," which offers faster and safer access to the inner waters.

The inner sea area is vast and boundless, fraught with danger. It would be very difficult for Li Wei, with his cultivation level, to cross it safely.

So he decided to spend some money to travel in official, high-class transportation.

Upon arrival, Li Wei saw a giant ship take off and quickly leave the island.

"I missed it, I'll have to wait for the next one."
