Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 209 Legendary Forbidden Technique! A New Mutation, the Kui Beast Breathing Technique! (Long Chapter, Please Vote)

If he could, Li Wei would not want to kill the legendary knight.

In this day and age, legendary knights are extremely rare, scattered throughout the wizarding world or among humans.

He always believed that vulnerable groups like the legendary knight should stick together for mutual support.

However, this Thousand-Faced Knight must be killed.

This person has an eccentric personality, is difficult to befriend, is an assassin with great strength, and intends to harm Li Wei.

If you keep it, it will inevitably backfire.

So, it's better to kill him.

He found a place to rest quietly.

His injuries began to heal rapidly, and after receiving medication and food, his strength began to return.

"The power of the Annihilation Horn is indeed terrifying; it can shatter that three-ring defensive force field in an instant." Li Wei recalled his last attack.

That terrifying annihilation ray blew the Thousand-Faced Knight's head off.

"With my current defense, I can barely withstand the attacks of a third-ring wizard. At least, thanks to my strong physique, I won't be instantly killed."

However, the drawback is that the spell power is not enough. There's nothing I can do about it; I'm only a second-ring ordinary wizard now, and the gap between me and the third-ring is too big.

My speed is also much slower than a third-ring wizard; I need to quickly level up my Blood Beast Breathing Technique to level thirteen.

Li Wei quietly summarized his insights and gains from this battle.

In summary, he now possesses the power to contend with a third-ring wizard.

Of course, even though a third-ringed individual like the Thousand-Faced Knight is skilled in assassination and extremely dangerous, their actual strength in direct combat is only at the level of someone who has just entered the third ring.

Compared to the Greenwood Witch and Huffman, she is still far inferior.

"Look what the Thousand-Faced Knight has to offer. Just that Horned Demon Horn alone is a steal."

When Li Wei opened the Thousand-Faced Knight's storage bag, he was taken aback when he saw the mountain of Tai Shi stones.

"many……"

Li Wei counted them and found a total of 80,000 taels of silver.

"So rich? And still an assassin? Is the competition among third-ring wizards really that fierce?" Li Wei couldn't help but retort.

Despite working hard through various part-time jobs, murder and robbery, and not spending much, I've only managed to save 70,000 taels of silver so far.

This Thousand-Faced Knight truly lives up to his reputation as a third-ring wizard; he actually possesses 80,000 taels of silver.

Li Wei's current reserves of Taishi.

It has reached a staggering 150,000!

"It's out! It's out!"

Besides the Taishi, the Thousand-Faced Knight has many other good things in his storage space.

A single horn of a demon is quite valuable, especially for an apothecary like Li Wei.

Then there were some spellbooks and spell crystal balls.

Spellbooks are tools for passing on low-level spells. They are generally used to record spell models for tricks, first-level spells, and second-level spells.

After the third ring, as spell models become more complex and multi-dimensional, spellbooks become insufficient.

The spell crystal ball is what records the models of the third-circle spells.

Over at the Tower of Merit, a third-circle spell crystal ball costs 30,000 merit points, which is extremely expensive.

Inside the Thousand Faces Knight bag, Li Wei saw four crystal balls.

It seems that the Thousand-Faced Knight doesn't have many third-circle spells, only four.

He's still quite a ways off from being a senior wizard in the third ring.

These four third-circle spells are Shadow Burst, Shadow Walk, Shadow Shield, and Shadowfiend.

The Shadow Burst and Shadow Walk techniques were seen used by the Thousand-Faced Knight before.

The Thousand-Faced Knight even used Shadow Burst as his innate spell, making his attacks extremely fierce and lasting for a long time, causing Li Wei a lot of trouble.

Shadow walking allows one to slip into the shadows, a divine skill for assassination and stealth.

Shadow Shield is a third-level defensive spell with average defensive power. As is typical of the Shadow School, defensive spells are generally not very effective, as this school primarily focuses on stealth and instant kill.

However, the Thousand-Faced Knight had no choice but to use this defensive spell as his third-circle defensive force field.

Li Wei is different in this respect; he can combine the strengths of various schools of thought and combine them into the strongest offensive and defensive spell combinations.

The final Shadow Fiend summons a Shadow Fiend comparable to a third-ring wizard to attack the enemy.

However, this spell was just obtained by the Thousand-Faced Knight from the Tower of Merit, and the spell model has not yet been completed.

Besides third-circle spells, there are also quite a few other second-circle spells.

For Li Wei, there was no value in learning it.

Li Wei currently lacks the talent for the Shadow faction, so he has no intention of practicing these spells for the time being.

He didn't want to be an assassin, nor did he like the whole assassination and stealth thing.

For him, being able to beat someone is a complete annihilation.

If he can't win a fight, he'll obediently stay put, never causing trouble, and certainly never attempting to assassinate anyone.

After I've integrated the four meditation methods of earth, fire, wind, and water, perhaps I can learn the "Shadow Walking" spell. It's a good way to save my life.

What remains are some spellcasting materials and the meditation techniques of the Shadow School.

Of course, there was also a three-ringed sorcerer's artifact, which looked like a dagger.

"Only sissies use this thing," Li Wei muttered, looking at the short dagger.

This three-ringed artifact was somewhat damaged, and it looked like it had been broken for a long time, so the Thousand-Faced Knight didn't use it.

Moreover, he didn't buy himself a new three-ring witch artifact, saving up 80,000 gold coins but unwilling to spend them, and it's unclear what he was planning to do with them.

Now that he is dead and his spirit has vanished, all these precious stones have benefited Li Wei.

This made Li Wei realize the truth.

I have so many Tai Shi, I need to work hard to upgrade them into combat power in the future.

Previously, Li Wei was saving money to buy Minnie Mouse Clubhouse, and Tai Shi was also reluctant to spend the money.

Now that we have the Wizard of Oz's House, it'll be enough for a long time. Minnie Mouse's Clubhouse is optional.

Although the Wizard of Oz house is a bit crowded, it's not uninhabitable.

Let these extraordinary creatures squeeze in and make do.

In my past life, I was content with renting a one-bedroom apartment of a few dozen square meters.

These guys live in the Wizard of Oz's house, which is much better than mine. Why would they need Minnie Mouse's Clubhouse?

The damaged three-ringed magical artifact had no value for appraisal, so Li Wei planned to find a black market to secretly dispose of it and exchange it for some money.

Among the miscellaneous items in the storage bag, Li Wei saw a thick parchment book, its pages yellowed and showing signs of age.

The Thousand-Faced Murder Diary

"Who keeps a diary, especially a murder diary? That's incredibly dark and twisted. Can't you just be cheerful, optimistic, and kind like me?"

Li Wei opened the diary and took a look.

These are all trivial anecdotes from the Thousand-Faced Knight.

Out of curiosity about a legendary knight, Levi read through the diary.

Even setting aside the useless information, Li Wei still gained some useful insights.

First, the Thousand-Faced Knight was actually a half-elf, and a dark elf, the rarest of all elves, which was unexpected for Levi.

No wonder the Black Knight said the Thousand-Faced Knight was no ordinary man. Moreover, the Thousand-Faced Knight seems to appear repeatedly in the kingdom's history, leaving behind countless nameless legends.

So this is also an immortal being who, like the Blood Knight, doesn't care about time.

Unfortunately, despite having a long lifespan, he lacked the power to protect him. Not only did he not cherish his lifespan, but he also always engaged in assassinations. Now, having encountered Li Wei, he has been caught off guard and suffered a setback.

If Li Wei possessed the lifespan of an immortal being, he would definitely stay in one place until the end of time, working his way up to become the strongest in the world.

To become an assassin, such a high-risk profession, is simply a sign of utter stupidity.

The second piece of useful information concerns the Black Magic Blade technique that Li Wei obtained.

It turns out that this secret technique was created by a powerful member of the Dark Elf race, a true genius.

Unfortunately, this genius fell at the hands of the wizards during the war between the wizard civilization and the Pandora civilization.

Dark elves are not numerous, but their individual strength is greater than that of the more populous green and blue elves.

One important reason is that many Dark Elves have mastered the Black Magic Blade technique.

Of course, the original name of this secret technique is "Blood Fear Demon God".

The aim is to unite the spirit and the flesh, stimulate the power of the bloodline, and condense the spiritual power into the phantom of the Blood Fear Demon God, which is what Li Wei calls the Bloodline Dharma Body.

The appearance of this Blood Fear Demon God phantom is incredibly varied; there are as many Blood Fear Demon Gods as there are people.

The Thousand-Faced Knight's diary does not contain detailed records of the Blood Fear Demon's mystical magic.

This must be something similar to the inheritance of bloodline memories.

But it doesn't matter, Li Wei has a proficiency panel, so he can keep deducing things on his own.

In addition, the Dark Elves generally worship an unknown deity called the Lord of Shadows.

This was also one of the original intentions of the Thousand-Faced Knight in creating the Voice of the Dead Bird.

The sound of the dead bird indirectly serves to spread the faith in the Lord of Shadows.

"This organization is truly persistent. When I was in the human world, they assassinated me three times. I never expected that even after I came to the wizarding world, the organization's founder would still try to assassinate me. Now I finally understand them completely."

Li Wei was filled with emotion.

……

The next day.

Li Wei boarded the magic airship heading home again, and he noticed that there were fewer wizards returning home this year...

"Ugh."

Three months ago, Li Wei heard that Wind Arrow Kankul had sacrificed himself during a demon-hunting mission.

This made Li Wei quite emotional, as he had only met the other party once and was not familiar with him at all.

But as fellow countrymen who went to Stromgarde together.

It's truly heartbreaking to see someone who was once alive and well now a ghost in the underworld.

He remembered that the last time he went home, Kankuer was looking at a picture of his wife.

Life and death are unpredictable, and so are wizards.

The horror and cruelty of war are evident.

If you want to be unaffected by any calamity, there is only one way: to be supreme and powerful!

This trip home went smoothly as usual, without any black wizards robbing us.

The combined power of Stromgarde is far beyond what ordinary wizarding organizations can match.

Ordinary black wizard organizations wouldn't dare to attack the military's magic airships.

Not long after, Levi arrived at Bath Island.

He rushed towards Blackfire Island without stopping.

at the same time.

Blackfire Island.

A second-circle wizard led a first-circle wizard toward Blackfire Island.

"My lord, this is the site I stumbled upon that appears to be the remains of a modern wizard. It should be the cave dwelling of a fallen wizard."

"That's what the wizard Joanne said."

He is a first-circle wizard of the Ocean faction.

His secondary profession is rather unique; he is a wizard relic hunter.

What is a Relic Hunter? They are wizards who specialize in searching for relics and exploring for treasure in the wizarding world.

These relics could be ancient shamanic sites, modern shamanic sites, or simply uninhabited shamanic caves, or even tombs.

Joan has mastered a secret technique that allows her to determine whether a place contains ruins by sensing the fluctuations and disturbances in the magnetic field and elemental power of a region.

Similar to the geomancers' techniques of finding auspicious burial sites.

Therefore, a wizarding relic hunter, or, in other words, a grave robber in the wizarding world, is someone with low emotional intelligence.

Joan happened to pass by this place and encountered Li Wei's Blackfire Island.

Using his knowledge of concealment magic and some array formations, he secretly went to Blackfire Island to investigate.

They discovered what appeared to be some magic arrays above, and beneath those arrays lay hidden wonders.

Finally, after staking out the location for a period of time...

He was certain that this was an abandoned, uninhabited wizard's cave.

He sensed the auras of many different and extraordinary creatures inside, but not the aura of a wizard.

These extraordinary creatures possessed extremely powerful auras, making them difficult for him, a first-ring wizard, to deal with.

So he went back and asked his boss for help.

Second-circle wizard, Burning Heartfire Koren.

With the strength of a second-circle wizard, breaking the magic circle and defeating the extraordinary creature inside should not be a problem.

When the time comes, in this hidden wizard's cave, among the treasures inside, Corin will get a share, and he too will get a piece of the pie.

Ke Lun had just advanced to the second ring and was now a number one figure in the Ninth District, so he was riding high at the moment.

Especially in recent years, his teacher, Michael Phelps, also advanced to the third ring in this chaotic world.

He became one of the very few third-ring wizards in this ninth district, establishing himself as king, founder of a sect, and calling himself the "Extreme Fire Ancestral Wizard".

Speaking of his teacher, he was quite special; he was once considered an anomaly among the rogue wizards of the Ninth District.

At the age of 250, Phelps, with his talent as the Child of Chaos, advanced to the level of a second-circle ordinary wizard at an age when it was almost impossible to break through to the second circle.

This situation was extremely rare and was quite famous in District 9 at the time.

After all, normally a first-ring wizard's lifespan is only about two hundred years. This Phelps doesn't have the bloodline of the immortal race, so being able to live to two hundred and fifty years old is already a miracle.

Later, some people calculated that Phelps' age of advancing to the second ring broke the record of the Ninth District for nearly a thousand years, making him the most "late bloomer".

After all, breakthroughs aren't necessarily better the older you are. The fact that he broke through so late shows that Phelps' talent is only average among the Chosen Ones.

For this type of person, the success rate of advancing to the second ring is very low.

Most people thought that Phelps would never be able to advance to the third ring in his lifetime.

Koren thought so too.

However, fifty years ago, this very teacher of mine, with the help of the relic hunter Joan, actually found an ancient relic.

The teacher, unwilling to admit defeat, ventured into the ruins in search of a breakthrough, and was never heard from again.

This disappearance lasted for fifty years.

Just when Corren thought that his cheap teacher had already died in the wizard ruins.

This teacher actually returned a few years ago.

Moreover, fifty years later, he suddenly jumped from the cultivation level of a second-ring ordinary wizard to the level of a third-ring wizard.

It's important to understand that for someone with Phelps' talent, reaching the second ring at 250 years old was already his limit.

It is almost impossible to advance to the third ring in one's lifetime; even a second-ring wizard's lifespan is only about three hundred years.

Koren had no idea what his teacher had gone through in the ruins.

In short, the teacher successfully broke through to the third ring.

In the past two years, the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch has been unparalleled in the Ninth District. Even Morpheus of Whale Song Island dares not provoke him.

The Ancestral Witch of Extreme Fire also gathered some wandering wizards who had lost their organization due to the war.

In just two years, this organization rapidly grew and established an organization called the "Tower of Dreams".

Thus, the Ninth District formed a tripartite balance of power: Whale Song Island, Dream Tower, and Ocean Current Tower.

Among them, the Whale Song Island of the Black Wizard faction and the Ocean Current Tower of the White Wizard faction are locked in fierce fighting, while the Dream Tower is currently considered neutral.

As a member of the Third Ring Wizarding Organization, Corren's very breathing became arrogant.

He gazed intently at the island ahead, determined to win.

"I'll go in and break through the formation later," Corren said.

"Boss Coron, what about me?" Joan asked.

"You're in charge of waving the flag and shouting slogans," Corin said confidently and powerfully.

"Okay, boss, be careful. There should be a second-ring extraordinary creature inside," Qiao An reminded him.

Kolen stood upright with his hands behind his back, exuding the air of a hermit.

Then he began to cast a spell, chanting incantations.

He raised his hands high, holding five large fireballs radiating terrifying power above him.

"There's nothing that a single Five Fireballs spell can't destroy. If there is, then just use another one." Koren revealed a powerful smile.

"Is this the power of second-circle magic?"

Qiao Anxin longed for the day when she could become a second-circle wizard.

He possessed the skill to find ruins, but lacked the ability to explore them.

Each time, I can only cooperate with the strong and act as their tool.

Finally, after the strongman had finished exploring the ruins, he took a sip of soup.

The five fireballs struck the defensive array set up by Li Wei, and ripples began to appear in the air.

Li Wei's magic array was only a first-level array, which was insufficient to defend against a second-level spell like Five Fireballs. The array began to fluctuate after just one strike.

Koren unleashed another five fireballs.

The outer defensive array was completely shattered.

The mist array inside was revealed. This was the strongest maze array set up by Li Wei, capable of disrupting direction and obscuring perception.

This magic circle covers a vast area. Unless one possesses the strength of a third-ring wizard, it is impossible to break it by force. One must find the core of the circle and destroy it.

"A trivial skill."

Coron raised a Holy Grail that looked like it was cast in gold.

The Holy Grail emitted a soft light, protecting Coron.

This is the second-circle sorcerer's artifact, the Golden Grail.

It was a second-ring witch artifact that he bought from the Ancestral Witch of Extreme Fire, and this witch artifact almost emptied his family's coffers.

However, it is indeed useful; it can generate a powerful second-ring defensive force field.

It is said that this golden Holy Grail was obtained by the Fire Witch from the ancient ruins.

Apart from witchcraft artifacts.

Koren activated his second-ring defensive force field and stepped into the maze formation, preparing to forcefully break through.

This level of magic array posed no challenge to him whatsoever.

But once inside, Corren realized he had stepped into one of the most dangerous forbidden areas in District 9...

A colossal creature lay lazily in a corner of the maze, its dim yellow eyes staring at Koren, who had just barged in.

It was Gustav who was positioned at the heart of the maze by Livy, where he could see every area of ​​the maze.

Koren, however, who was trapped in the maze, could not see Gustav.

Gustav slowly stood up.

During its time on Blackfire Island, it has devoured countless uninvited guests who have intruded intentionally or unintentionally.

Koren is not the first, and perhaps he won't be the last.

With Gustav guarding it, Blackfire Island is already one of the most terrifying areas in District 9.

Outside Blackfire Island, Joan waited for Corin.

He also had some knowledge of magic arrays, so he could tell.

Although these magic arrays are not of high level, their owners have cleverly combined these first-ring and even zero-ring magic arrays together.

A maze, a defensive formation, a killing formation—layers nested together, working in perfect harmony.

Even a single-ring magic circle would be enough to give an ordinary second-ring wizard a run for their money.

Joan originally wanted to help Corinne, but since the other party was so confident and didn't want him to participate, he patiently waited for Corinne to break the formation successfully.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Koren has not yet succeeded in breaking through the formation.

Two quarters of an hour have passed.

There has still been no news.

Just as Joan was about to go and investigate the situation.

A disheveled figure flew out from the maze.

The defensive field around Koren dimmed, and a crack appeared on the second-ring magical artifact, the Golden Grail.

"Damn old man, the second-ring defensive artifact he sold me was a substandard product! I almost got bitten to pieces by that giant crocodile!" Corren cursed as he fled frantically.

He was covered in wounds, even had a broken leg, but after applying some healing medication, the injuries had stopped.

However, if he cannot be treated with life-related magic in time, he will most likely become a crippled wizard.

Seeing that things were not going well, Qiao An also began to retreat.

"What's wrong, Boss Coron?"

"The second-ring creatures here are too powerful. I'm no match for them. Damn it, why didn't you say so sooner?" Coron blamed Joan.

Joan said, feeling wronged, "I already told you..."

"I'll settle the score with you when we get back," Corren said coldly.

Gustav was already in pursuit, with towering waves and the monstrous crocodile churning the waters.

Such a sea beast can only be fought by a senior second-ring wizard; Coron is no match for it at all.

As they ran, Coron and Joan realized that the Sea Dragon Crocodile had not caught up with them.

Instead, they looked at them with the eyes of someone looking at a pitiful creature.

At that moment, preoccupied with their escape, they noticed that in the sky ahead, a second-circle wizard, clad in robes that fluttered in the wind, was watching them with a calm gaze.

"Stop," Li Wei said, leaving no room for argument.

"Get out of my way!" Corin hurriedly ran away, throwing a five-fireball spell at Li Wei.

He had no interest in arguing with that inexplicable person in front of him.

He only wanted to escape from here, tell the location of the island to the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch, and let him flatten the island.

The Five Fireballs spell struck Li Wei's second-ring defensive force field, which only trembled slightly but did not shatter.

Koren's Five Fireballs technique is not well-practiced and its power is only average.

Li Wei's second-ring Earth Spirit Shield was already at its limit, and with the blessing of the Earth Fire Overlord, it had a second-ring S-level defensive strength.

Under normal circumstances, only a very small number of second-circle or third-circle spells can break through Li Wei's current second-circle defensive force field.

It was only then that Corren realized just how powerful this second-circle wizard was.

Both being ordinary second-ring wizards, the opponent's spells were far more powerful than his own.

Moreover, the opponent's mental strength is also much higher than his own.

Although I haven't reached the level of a second-circle senior wizard, I'm not far off.

The Great Black Sky Veil flew out from behind Li Wei, transforming into a black demonic dragon that danced and roared wildly.

He bound the already weakened Corinthian together and brought him to Levi's side.

On the other side, Joan was about to run away, but was frightened by a single sentence from Li Wei.

"If you run away, you'll die."

Qiao An swallowed hard, then stood obediently in place, waiting for her fate.

Li Wei remained unmoved and easily subdued the leader of the Koren clan. Only the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch in the Tower of Labyrinths could accomplish such a feat.

This is definitely an old monster who has been cultivating in seclusion in the ocean; it is impossible to defeat him by force.

This time, they've really hit a brick wall; they're in for a lot of trouble. Qiao An felt uneasy.

"Who are you? How dare you attack me, the Burning Heart Wizard? My teacher is the Extreme Fire Ancestral Wizard! Do second-ring wizards these days not even consider third-ring wizards a threat?"

Although Corren was panicking inside, the thought that he had his teacher backing him up made him much more confident. Do you know what a third-ring wizard is?

The curtain of darkness enveloped him tightly, and Corren felt as if he could not breathe. Levi's powerful aura pressed down on him, making him feel as if he were in hell.

"Why did you trespass on my island? You know what the consequences are for trespassing on a wizard's territory, right? I can kill you at will without any legal repercussions," Li Wei sneered.

Behind him, atop the towering waves, Gustav slowly emerged, and Livy gently landed on Gustav's head.

Seeing this, Corren realized that he had offended a big shot this time.

The other party must be a genius second-ring wizard from some high-level wizard organization who went out for training, otherwise how could they have subdued this terrifying sea beast?

He reacted quickly and immediately begged for mercy: "Sir, I'm sorry. I thought this was unclaimed land. I was greedy for a moment, but I didn't take anything from your island. I can also fully compensate you for the magic array I damaged. Please forgive me."

Li Wei laughed.

This Koren, who was so tough just a second ago, is now suddenly begging for mercy. His change of attitude is really fast.

"Who did you say your teacher was? What is the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch?" Li Wei asked.

He had been busy with breakthroughs and drug manufacturing, and hadn't been home for several years, nor had he paid attention to the situation in District 9.

Why did they suddenly appear together with the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch?

Who would dare to use such a domineering name as "Ancestral Witch"?

"The Ancestral Witch of Extreme Fire, my teacher, is a third-ring wizard and one of the three strongest in the Ninth District, alongside Morpheus of Whale Song Island and Lady Whitewater of the Tower of Ocean Currents."

"And who is Lady Baishui?"

"The third-ring wizard who emerged from the White Wizard Alliance of the Ocean Current Tower last year is said to have returned from studying in the Inner Ring Sea."

Li Wei couldn't help but sigh.

In just a few years since I left, the Ninth District has undergone such earth-shattering changes.

In the past, the Ninth District, apart from the Black-Eyed Raven Morty who remained hidden behind the scenes, only had Morpheus as a third-ring powerhouse.

And now, there are actually three.

In chaotic times, more and more monsters and demons appear on the scene.

Li Wei forced the two wizards to sign an unequal pact with him, putting their lives in his own hands.

At the same time, these two people are not allowed to talk about their affairs with others.

For wizards who are much weaker than oneself, such a contract can be a method of control.

This kind of control is not very reliable, and the other party may also resort to desperate measures and attack you.

However, Li Wei's strength far surpassed his opponent's, so he didn't care much.

If it were a powerful figure like the Thousand-Faced Knight, Li Wei wouldn't dare to do that.

"You two trespassed on my island, but I am kind-hearted and will spare your lives. I will be leaving this place soon, and you can do whatever you want afterward. However, you must come to this island often and help me take care of it. If anyone trespasses, kill them."

Li Wei said.

He was about to leave with all his extraordinary creatures, but there were still many medicinal herbs on the island that he couldn't take with him.

It's perfect to have these two people keep an eye on things for me; they can work for free.

"My lord, may I cultivate on this island?" Corin asked. He was originally from the Burning Faction, and cultivating on Livy's Blackfire Island would be twice as effective.

"casual."

Li Wei returned to his cave.

He looked around and saw that all his extraordinary creatures were still alive and well.

"This time I can take them all with me," Li Wei thought to himself.

He took out the two men's storage bags and rummaged through them.

The total is only 10,000 taels of silver; they seem to be poor as well.

Kelun's Taishi had just exchanged the Golden Holy Grail from the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch, so he was out of money.

Judging from the spell runes and craftsmanship of this golden Holy Grail...

This doesn't seem to be a product of modern wizards; this Holy Grail exudes the aura of time.

"An artifact of an ancient wizard. Koren said that the Extreme Fire Ancestral Wizard disappeared into an ancient wizard's ruins fifty years ago and only returned fifty years later. During these fifty years, the Extreme Fire Ancestral Wizard jumped from a second-ring ordinary wizard to a third-ring wizard. This speed is second only to the Child of the Elements."

"It seems that this Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch has had some kind of extraordinary encounter in the Wizard Ruins."

Li Wei shook his head, suppressing the burning desire in his mind.

With my own proficiency panel, there's no need to explore dangerous ancient wizard ruins.

Just grind in Stromgarde like a dog.

The Holy Grail was already somewhat damaged and worthless, and it was of no use to Li Wei, so he put it away for the time being and dealt with it later.

Finally, Li Wei found a booklet in Joan's storage bag.

Jones the Treasure Hunter's Journal

Li Wei opened it out of curiosity and took a look.

"Interesting, there's even a profession called Relic Hunter."

Compared to the three wizarding arts, appraisers and relic hunters are even rarer and more niche professions.

This wizard, Jones, is a scholar who studies ancient wizarding and is dedicated to excavating and searching for wizarding relics buried in the wizarding world like pearls lost in the ocean.

"Keep it; you never know when you might need it."

Li Wei has a map of the ruins here.

The Lost Caverns of Pan.

When he came back, he went to take another look.

Even with his current strength, the spider sense is still a very dangerous feeling.

This made him realize that Pan's Labyrinth was definitely not simple.

Perhaps I need to be at least an intermediate-level wizard before I'm qualified to explore Pan's Labyrinth.

Li Wei didn't stay on Blackfire Island for long. After taking Gustav and the others with him, he left.

He only took a month off this time, and it took him more than half a month to travel.

Now, only the Swordsman Mantis, Li Wei's magic circle, and herb garden remain on Blackfire Island.

Colin and Joan had already left.

Li Wei didn't kill them; he was quite interested in the Extreme Fire Ancestral Witch.

He let the two of them continue playing their roles in the Tower of Dreams, perhaps one day in the future they would be able to use them.

Li Wei was not a person who liked fighting and killing.

After that, Li Wei went to the Secret Realm of the Giant Tree.

I visited my companions in the Gray Tower.

Before leaving, he spent 10,000 taels of silver to obtain basic bloodline transplantation technology and tools from the Green Forest Witch.

Bloodline transplantation is not considered a particularly advanced technique in the field of life sciences, so 10,000 yuan is more than enough.

Having finished his business, Li Wei left District 9 with satisfaction and boarded the sorcerer's airship bound for Stromgarde City.

The year 1046 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the month of Green Grass.

Li Wei returned to Stromgarde.

The mansion at number 81 next door is now empty again.

"Sigh, without Wizard Will, it's actually getting a bit boring," Levi thought to himself with a self-deprecating smile.

Although Wizard Will wanted to harm him, he had somehow grown accustomed to having such a hospitable neighbor during the years that Wizard Will had been his neighbor.

"Maybe I'm just too lonely?" Li Wei thought to himself.

"Master, you're back!" Argenta excitedly ran out.

The three brothers, Lion, Tiger, and Leopard, also came out to greet Li Wei's arrival.

"Did nothing happen at the Wizard Tower while I was away this month?" Li Wei asked.

"No, it's just that a wizard named Rex came looking for you, but left after finding you weren't there," Taiga said.

"Rex?" Levi's heart became alert.

Why would this prime suspect, who is suspected of assassinating me, want to find me?

Could it be that the assassination failed, and now they want to negotiate peace?

"I understand. Come on, show me the results of your sword training this month," Li Wei said.

"Okay, I'll go first, hehe." Argenta excitedly brandished his longsword, displaying impressive skills with both the Golden Cross Slash and the Ash Cross Slash.

If converted to proficiency levels, they should all be at tier 2.

This is fast enough, given that it's only been a month.

"You passed." Li Wei couldn't help but pat Argenta's fluffy head.

It feels like petting a Shiba Inu's head.

That's great.

Argenta's face flushed red instantly. She dared not move, letting her master stroke her head.

I must say, the owner's rough, big hands actually feel quite comfortable to touch.

The three brothers also stuck their heads out, but Li Wei ignored them.

Although he is a straight man who likes strength, it doesn't mean he has a problem with his sexual orientation.

He swore to God that his love interest was women.

He can't do those kinds of gay-sounding things.

"Phew, now I can focus on my cultivation in Stromgarde City. If I catch any new extraordinary creatures, I can put them in the Wizard of Oz."

In general, extraordinary creatures, especially dragons, tend to be larger the stronger they are.

Given the space in the Green Fairy House, Li Wei shouldn't need to worry about insufficient space before the Fourth Ring Road phase, and won't need to change houses for the time being.

Inside the Wizard of Oz, Gustav lazily occupied the largest area all to himself, while the Red Fire Dragon Lizard, Bone Snake, and Red Sand Ape all kept their distance from this big guy.

Only Leviathan, alone, spouts water in the lake, becoming a fountain feature in the Wizard of Oz.

"Hey, why do I feel like I'm playing Pokémon?"

"Never mind, let me collect more extraordinary pets! My goal is to become the strongest pet master in the wizarding world!"

……

In the days that followed, Li Wei returned to his life of making medicine and practicing cultivation.

After acquiring the secret medicine, he began to refine his breathing technique once again.

As for Rex, who was looking for him, Levi didn't pay any attention to him.

Near the apothecary's tower, the other party didn't seem to dare to make a move.

Then I will try my best not to leave the city in the future.

Time flies.

Six months later, Li Wei, who was cultivating in the City of Rapids, suddenly felt a strong fluctuation.

Not only him, but even the two high-ranking wizards who were in seclusion in the Tower of Rapids opened their eyes.

Ocean current controller Critreth and airflow conductor Al.

They were originally practicing together.

"Such a powerful fluctuation, the legendary wizard has made his move..." El murmured.

"Yes, it's likely that the legendary forbidden spell used to destroy the Well of the Abyss has been released."

"A legendary wizard needs to cast spells continuously for years to cast a forbidden spell. Even the gods of the stars dare not challenge it head-on. This Abyss Well should be destroyed by now."

The two high-ranking wizards left the Tower of Rapids.

Night has fallen.

Above Stromgarde, wizards stood in mid-air, all with shocked expressions.

They stared blankly at the distant horizon, in the heart of the faraway Hundred-Eyed Demon Realm.

A crimson mushroom cloud seemed to rise thousands of feet into the sky, its light illuminating the entire sea.

"It's estimated that before long, the largest tsunami in the Endless Sea in a thousand years will gradually sweep across the entire region. The power of the legendary forbidden magic is too great. Even if a legendary wizard deliberately controls it within a small area, the power released will still affect the entire Endless Sea like a butterfly effect," Wizard El sighed.

"The wizards are naturally fine, but some mortals who didn't have time to escape may suffer."

"There's no other way; destroying the Well of the Abyss is the top priority, and some people have to be sacrificed for it."

The couple from Turbulent City had complex expressions.

Meanwhile, in the central district, Li Wei and Argenta watched the terrifying pillar of light and mushroom cloud.

At this moment, all the wizards in Stromgarde City were admiring this spectacular sight created by a legendary forbidden spell.

Li Wei was deeply shocked.

At that moment, he finally understood why legendary wizards were called legends.

"Is this truly a power that humans can control?"

"Will a knight ever reach that level?"

Li Wei asked himself this question.

Before long, a terrifying tsunami submerged the islands below Stromgarde, with towering waves almost crashing onto the city itself.

Of course, there are formations within Stromgarde City, so these giant waves won't destroy it.

Li Wei sighed and went back to grind experience points. The spark that led him to become a legendary wizard had already been ignited in his heart.

As a true man, this is what you should do!

……

A month later.

The Tower of Stars announced that the Abyss Well, located in the center of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Realm, the ancient wizard's ruins, has been completely destroyed.

The portal through which the Abyss Civilization attempted to invade the Wizard Civilization is gone.

The ancient shaman's ruins are gone too.

The wizards of the Endless Sea cheered with joy.

Let's cheer for the legends and celebrate the wizarding civilization.

"The Abyss civilization has repeatedly invaded our wizard civilization. After quelling the internal strife and launching the Great Expedition, I will emulate the wizard ancestor Sauron, leading legendary wizards to attack the Abyss and deter those restless demon lords! Let the light of the eternal sun melt away the darkness of the Abyss!"

So said the Grand Council Speaker, the Sun God Wizard Emon.

In short, the wizarding world was in an uproar.

Everyone was as energetic as if they'd been injected with chicken blood.

After listening, Li Wei remained completely calm.

That's just empty talk from a big shot; the Abyss isn't so easy to conquer.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with a nobody like Li Wei.

With his strength, let alone attacking the Abyss Lord.

Any level 3 or higher demon on the first floor can easily defeat him.

The road ahead is long and arduous, and the journey is difficult and lengthy.

one year later.

The year 1047 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Vitality.

Li Wei is fifty-seven years old.

He held the Klein crystal ball in his hand.

My mental strength has reached 63 points.

We're getting closer and closer to the 70 points required to become a senior wizard in the second ring.

Judging from the looks of it, he has a chance to advance to become a senior second-circle wizard before he turns sixty.

Such a level is definitely top-tier in the Endless Sea.

The Spider and Scorpion Song event was also pushed to its limit, with the maximum number of Armored Scorpions and Red-faced Sea Demon Spiders that Li Wei could control reaching tens of thousands.

Li Wei's idea of ​​becoming the Zerg Emperor in the Wizarding World takes another step forward.

The Armored Scorpion has been upgraded to version 4.0, and it is much stronger than before in both size and defense.

Li Wei estimated that by version 6.0, the Sacred Armor Scorpion would be roughly on the same level as the Red-faced Sea Spider, which is the highest level among the lower-grade alien insects.

At that time, tens of thousands of armored scorpions will swarm forward, letting the world experience what it means to be the Insect Demon Li Wei!

In addition, regarding the chivalry, all three breathing techniques that Li Wei obtained in the mortal realm have reached the legendary eleventh level.

Li Wei————

Mountain Ape Breathing Technique: Eleventh Level (Limit), Special Effect: Mountain-Piercing Arm (Solid State)

Maya Breathing Technique: Eleventh Level (Limit), Special Effects: Unceasing Wind (Solid State), Remnant of the Wind.

Musk Ox Breathing Technique: Eleventh Level (Limit), Special Effects: Earth-Shaking Hoof (Solid State), War Horn.

……

Among these special effects, the first one is similar to Li Wei's previous breathing techniques, so there's not much to say about it.

However, the Maya breathing method and the musk ox breathing method also produced a second special effect.

【Remnants of the Wind】is an effect with wind element affinity, and its effect is slightly stronger than 【Children of the Wind】.

With these two elemental affinity talents combined, Li Wei's wind element affinity should be comparable to dual-element affinity.

With his proficiency stat added to the panel, his speed should be no worse than that of the Child of the Wind.

The only difference might be the disparity in resources.

The "War Horn" effect is similar to a passive aura that enhances the strength of allied forces.

In addition, each of the three breathing techniques has a legendary organ associated with it.

The mountain ape's extraordinary organs are Li Wei's hands, which are similar to those of the holy ape. They are superimposed, but the effect is average, and so far, there seems to be no special effect.

The musk ox's extraordinary organ was the curved horn on either side of Livy's head, similar to that of a water buffalo.

As he had anticipated, he became a genuine minotaur, or rather, the "Great Sage Evil Bull Demon King" of the wizarding world.

It's all the fault of those pharmacists who gave themselves nicknames; now he really is "Nun Levi"!

The extraordinary organ of the Maya breathing method is a pair of bird wings like those of a golden eagle.

Including Bloodwing, Li Wei now has two pairs of wings.

Eagle wings can create strong winds, allowing them to soar into the sky, and can also be used to attack enemies; they have many functions.

For Li Wei now, these eleventh-tier legendary breathing techniques are, frankly, unlikely to provide any significant boost to his strength.

His studies are mainly for breaking limits and mutations in the future.

Moreover, he felt that, similar to his meditation method, perhaps once his breathing technique level was further improved, the proficiency panel would become more flexible.

You can gradually integrate all the breathing techniques, bringing them together to form the ultimate breathing technique that evolves towards the path of the ultimate life form.

However, at present, it seems that only similar types of fusion are possible.

After adjusting your state.

Li Wei directly fused and mutated the Musk Ox Breathing Technique and the Ostrich Mountain Breathing Technique. The Ostrich Mountain Breathing Technique had been stuck at the eleventh-tier limit for a long time, just waiting for this day.

Ultimately, a new, legendary, and mutated breathing technique was born.

Li Wei————

Kui Beast Breathing Technique: 11th Rank (1/300000), Special Effects: Kui Feet (Solid State), War Horn, Earth Shaking.
