Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 247 The Will of the Mother Nest, Blood and Qi Transform into Wings (Long Chapter, Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)

The year 1101 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the month of the North Wind.

The Great Expedition is in its 70th year.

An endless dark land.

A colossal sky city was moving at a steady pace within it.

The barrier surrounding Sky City isolates the "Dark Power" of the Dark Lands.

The Dark Land is said to be a boundless void without air, temperature, or life, filled with all sorts of unknown radiation and corrosive forces. Everything in the Dark Land is meaningless, with only the void and deathly silence remaining forever!

In a small tavern in Sky City, two spherical alchemical creatures were snuggling together, chatting with other wizards from the chapter.

After a long battle, the surviving wizards were exhausted, but their faces were filled with happiness.

After a few more years of sailing, we can go home.

"Come, let's drink." Herman's alchemical arm held a wine glass, and his head, the only thing that could be considered flesh and blood, emerged from his body, looking comical.

"With your alchemical body, can you even taste fine wine?" a warband wizard joked.

"Why not?" Herman chuckled, gulping down the wine.

"You old drunkard, you weren't like this before," Stella, Herman's lover, said plaintively, bumping Herman with the ball.

"It's rare to relax like this... it's not like I drink every day." Herman looked at Stella and asked for her permission to drink.

Stella snorted, closed her eyes, and ignored him.

Hermann chuckled and continued drinking and chatting, reminiscing about his seventy-year expeditionary career.

This journey through the myriad dimensions can be considered a blessing in disguise.

On the eve of the war's end, while fleeing from the Plague Legion, he and Stella stumbled upon a lost Ancient Mechanical Cemetery.

There were many broken, dead mechanical remains there.

There, Herman and Stella underwent a complete transformation, modifying their alchemical bodies with usable modules and parts from powerful mechanical beings, thus healing their injuries.

Not only that, he also advanced from an ordinary alchemical body to a powerful [mechanical body], and his strength reached the fourth ring level. Stella also subsequently entered the third ring.

If he hadn't come to the Myriad Machines Plane and cultivated step by step in the Endless Sea, his strength would never have been able to achieve such a huge improvement.

In the Mechanical Cemetery, the greatest find is a brass tombstone that resembles a memory slab.

Many of the technical problems that have plagued alchemists in the Wizarding World have already been solved.

It contains a wealth of knowledge on [Spirit-Mechanical Integration Technology], [Mechanical Resonance Technology], [Mechanical Legion Manufacturing and Control Technology], and [Mechanical Runeology], the progenitor of alchemical runes.

All this mechanical knowledge, including the remains of various powerful mechanical creatures in the mechanical graveyard, came from a powerful being from an ancient plane of myriad machines.

"The Mechanical Sage Madison".

Herman speculated that this was at least a powerful being from the Myriad Machines plane comparable to a Yuanhun Wizard, and possibly even a Grand Wizard.

The knowledge of the emerging alchemical schools in the wizarding world is insignificant in the face of this mechanical sage.

It's important to know that the alchemical knowledge in the Wizarding World originates from the Plane of Machines. This was a major reason why Herman risked his life to come here, as his talents couldn't be fully utilized in the Wizarding World.

If it weren't for the Great Expedition, with his cultivation level and wealth, it would have been impossible for him to come to the Myriad Machines Plane.

Therefore, if he can digest this knowledge, Herman thinks that advancing to the Elemental Soul Wizard level might be a bit difficult, but reaching the fifth ring level will definitely be no problem.

By then, he will have made a name for himself in the Endless Sea, and will be able to better protect those who need his protection.

While Herman was chatting with his comrades, at the top of the towering blue wizard tower in the center of Sky City.

The Deep Blue Sage was frowning. His aura seemed somewhat unstable compared to before, and some livid spots appeared on his face.

Although he won the battle against the Father of the Plague by launching a surprise attack, the Father's final counterattack still inflicted serious damage on him.

The divine authority of the Father of Plague is absolute [plague] and part of [despair] and [death].

The powerful [Plague God's Power], capable of infecting legendary wizards, was making Luther's life difficult.

However, the father of the plague suffered even more than him.

The Father of Plague and the other three evil gods were not directly born on the astral plane as "gods." They were once powerful rulers of multiple planes, but after being recruited by the Lord of Chaos, their true spirits were guided to the "Chaotic Wilderness," where they condensed into "Astral Avatars" and ascended to godhood.

These deities, whose physical form is not in the astral plane, are generally referred to as "parademons" by legendary wizards.

Some powerful multidimensional rulers, mythical creatures, abyssal demon lords, and hellish devil lords are all [godlike beings]. By wizarding standards, godlike beings are like legendary wizards, both being level ten or higher.

The Plague Father, a godlike being, had his original form beneath the astral plane destroyed by Luther.

Luther knew that beings like the Father of the Plague could not truly die.

Wherever plague, despair, and death pervade, there lies fertile ground for the father of plague to breed.

Moreover, the true spirit of the Father of Plague has already taken up residence in the Chaos Wasteland. Unless one steps into the Astral Plane and obliterates his true spirit in the face of the Lord of Chaos in the Chaos Wasteland, the Father of Plague will inevitably return sooner or later.

However, it would take at least a thousand or even ten thousand years for Him to regain His original strength.

This gives the wizards enough time to make preparations.

However, the reason why Luther's brows remained furrowed was neither the Father of the Plague nor the Plague God's power that was constantly eroding his soul and will.

Rather, it is an unknown danger from the dark land.

The crystal ball in front of him was completely dark.

"Hiss...rustle..."

Like a phonograph playing on a cassette tape, a certain sound came from the crystal ball.

The sound was terrifying, insane, angry, hungry, and ferocious, as if it wanted to devour everything.

Suddenly, a vast force of will seemed to permeate the wizard tower. The level of this will was so high that even the Deep Blue Sage, who had just defeated the Father of the Plague, couldn't help but change his expression.

He didn't know who the master of this will was.

However, he could sense the endless malice towards all living beings contained within it.

Cracks began to appear on the crystal ball.

With a bang, the magical artifact he had used for so long shattered.

He reached the top of the Wizard's Tower, and his voice, like a resounding bell, echoed throughout Sky City.

"Emergency situation! We will no longer be returning to the Wizarding World. The flight path to Sky City has been changed. Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Upon hearing the legendary wizard's voice, the warband wizards, including Herman, all tensed up.

They had never seen this legendary wizard speak with such a hint of panic and helplessness.

They believed that even if the angels of the gods, or even the gods themselves, descended from the astral plane, this calm, wise, and top-tier expert of the Ocean School would still stand firm in his confrontation with the gods.

Luther took a deep breath and looked helplessly into the distant dark land. On the other side of deep space was the Nora plane, the wizarding world.

According to the original itinerary, he should have been able to return in a few more years.

But now, he can't go back.

The sheer level and stature of that will he had just witnessed made him realize that if he returned to the Nora plane at this moment, he might bring back the terrifying beings lingering in the Dark Lands.

"Deep Blue, bring up the plane closest to our Sky City," Luther whispered.

An aged yet gentlemanly voice echoed from inside the wizard's tower, as if an old butler was speaking.

"Retrieving..."

"Retrieval complete. The closest planes to Sky City are [Ted Plane], [Stardust Plane], [Grey Eagle Plane]..."

A deep blue voice came through.

"No, some of these planes are federation planes under the control of wizards, and some planes don't even have level nine beings. At least there must be legendary beings to contend with this will... Deep Blue, this time directly retrieve the information of planes with level ten or higher beings. Don't worry about the distance. The stronger the plane, the better," Luther said.

"Retrieving data... Planes with beings of level 10 or higher include [Traveler's Plane], [Aragami Plane]... [Abyss Plane]..."

"Wait, how far is the Abyss Plane from us?" Luther suddenly interrupted Deep Blue and asked.

"The Abyss Plane is 20 years away from us. If we go at full speed, it will take 10 years. If we go at overload, it will take 5 years... Lord Luther, you don't want to?" Deep Blue asked.

"That's right. Now change direction and head to the Abyss Plane. Proceed at full speed and be prepared to enter overload sailing mode at any time."

"But, my lord, if we do that, Sky City might be destroyed after we reach the Abyss Plane, and then returning will be a problem. Moreover, there are quite a few level 10 beings in the Abyss Plane. After assessment, if we venture into the bottom of the Abyss Plane alone, our chances of survival are not high, less than one-third," Deep Blue said.

"This is an order, just carry it out. If it comes to a critical moment, I will put Sky City and these warband wizards into my demiplane, and then sail alone in the Darklands. I will not let everyone make meaningless sacrifices," Luther said.

"OK."

Not long after.

The enormous sky city began to change direction, heading at full speed towards a certain place in the dark land.

"I wonder where we're going?" Herman asked.

"No matter what, trust the legendary wizard's decision," Stella said solemnly.

They had been traveling in the dark land for an unknown amount of time.

Suddenly, a tremor came from the barrier outside Sky City.

The wizards looked in the direction of the tremor and saw a gigantic creature, perhaps the size of Sky City, appearing in the dark land.

This giant creature looked like a worm, covered in a thick, metallic-looking carapace, with crimson eyes on both sides that were constantly rotating.

Its entire body is covered with countless deep pits, resembling a honeycomb.

In these deep pits, all sorts of alien creatures are flying out from the honeycomb tunnels aboard enormous fly-like insects.

Moreover, on the back of the giant creature, there were several alien powerhouses of various shapes whose auras were no less than those of the great wizards, all staring at the wizards in Sky City with bloodthirsty eyes.

These strange insects have a clear division of labor and are well-organized, comparable to a well-trained wizarding warband.

From the enormous worm's mouthparts, a dark blue, gelatinous breath was spewed out, crashing onto the Sky City's defensive shield.

Accompanying the breath that landed on the defensive shield were small, strange insects with sharp mouthparts.

As soon as these insects appeared, they began to gnaw at the protective shield, and the hissing friction sound from the shield could be heard inside Sky City.

boom!

The protective shield shimmered with light.

All the insects were shattered into dust.

At this moment, all the wizards in Sky City understood why the legendary wizard had suddenly changed direction.

Terrifying monsters have locked onto Sky City, and going back now would undoubtedly expose the Wizarding World to them.

The wizard civilization, already burdened by the Great Expedition and Civil War, and weighed down by internal and external troubles, could no longer withstand the invasion of foreign enemies.

Inside the colossal worm, there are various shapes and slime-covered alien buildings, with many alien monsters gathered around a church-style building in the very center.

There, there was an alien creature adorned with magnificent wings and crown-like tentacles on its head. Sensing that supreme will, it emitted a vast, enigmatic sound.

"The will of the Brood is watching us, children of the Brood, follow me into battle!"

……

world.

The land of the open sea.

The deep seabed.

Li Wei rested here for half a month.

This time, he used every trick in the book to get rid of that damned fire elemental spirit.

"This beast, I must conquer it and make it my slave, so it can tend the fire for me every day and serve as the engine for the tyrant II, only then can I vent my hatred," Li Wei thought to himself.

"I wonder where that guy went? Logically speaking, with a saint from the church around, he shouldn't have caused any major trouble... right?"

Li Wei stood up.

During his recovery period, he also spent his free time reflecting on his battles over the past few years.

The battle against the Bloodflame Wizard proved that Levi could defeat a fourth-ring ordinary wizard of the Burning Faction.

Li Wei has also come to understand the current system of comparison between the Knight and Wizard realms.

A normal, single-dimensional knight without any cheat codes.

An eleventh-tier legendary wizard is equivalent to a first-ring wizard, a twelfth-tier bloodthirsty wizard is equivalent to a second-ring wizard, a thirteenth-tier blood source transformation is equivalent to a third-ring wizard, and a fourteenth-tier blood source transformation is equivalent to a third-ring veteran.

An ordinary single-dimensional knight, after undergoing the third transformation of the fifteenth-tier bloodline, should be comparable to an ordinary fourth-ring wizard.

Of course, this is only in theory. In reality, because the knight system is not yet perfect, ordinary knights, like the ancient saints, lack the ability to fly, and they do not have the unpredictable and complex spell system of wizards that can deal with complex situations.

Therefore, the overall combat power of knights is still weaker than that of wizards, and the [Bloodline Divine Weapon], which is comparable to the [Wizard Artifact], can only appear at the Blood Origin Realm.

Before this, knights could only use weapons forged from mortals and the power of their bloodline to fight enemies. At most, they could master some powerful combat skills, but compared with magic, they were still weak.

Li Wei's strength stems from his unique "cheat codes": the Nine Swords Asura Bloodline Dharma Body, the Six-Dimensional Polygon Attribute, and the Super Legendary Breathing Technique with Mutation and Fusion. These abilities allow him to defeat wizards of higher levels.

"The knights' methods are still limited, and how to fly is also a problem. Apart from a few breathing techniques that allow flight, many knights with strength, defense, and physique, such as the Black Knight, a Bloodthirsty level powerhouse, have not mastered the ability to fly. They can only jump up to fight wizards, but the altitude is also limited..."

"Now that I'm back in the mortal realm, I'll thoroughly study the knight's flight techniques. I could emulate the Blood Beast Breathing Technique's Blood Wings and see if I can develop a method called 'Blood Qi Transformation Wings.' This way, as long as a knight's blood qi is abundant enough, regardless of their type, once they reach a certain level, they'll at least be able to master short-distance flight."

In this extraordinary world, not being able to fly is truly terrible; you'll be toyed with and killed by wizards using flight and ranged spells.

"Let's go back to the Twilight Temple first."

Li Wei emerged from his hiding place and took to the air.

When Li Wei returned to Twilight Island, he found that everything was normal.

He sensed that, apart from the trainee knights who were cultivating, there was only one formal knight on the island: the Black Knight.

The Black Temple.

The Black Knight is working on a combat technique he has just created.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure it out, and looked worried and distressed.

"What are you worried about?"

Li Wei's voice rang out.

The Black Knight suddenly awoke to find a familiar face standing smiling in the hall, with a strange, burly blond man beside him.

The Black Knight smiled wryly and said, "I've been studying a sword technique recently, and since you're here, Commander, could you please give me some pointers?"

"Tell me about it," Li Wei said.

The Black Knight then explained his difficulties to Levi.

After listening, Li Wei gave him some pointers.

The Black Knight's dilemma was that he discovered his swordsmanship could not be perfectly integrated with the power of his bloodline, thus preventing him from unleashing the full potential of that power.

Li Wei suggested referring to the concept of Bloodline Dharma Body, and he directly took out a book called "Introduction to Bloodline Dharma Body" and handed it to the Black Knight.

"This contains some principles and techniques of the Bloodline Avatar that I compiled. They are all very basic things. You yourself also cultivate the Bloodline Avatar, so you should study and comprehend this book carefully. When the Blood Knights return, you can also show it to them."

"By the way, this book is only available to official members and a select group of exceptionally talented core members. Once the Twilight Temple's knowledge management system is fully established, these will require corresponding contributions to acquire," Li Wei said.

"Understood. By the way, Commander... who is this knight?"

"Hello, you must be the Black Knight. I am Dinos, the Golden Lion Knight! The captain mentioned you to me." Dinos smiled, his golden hair fluttering in the wind.

"So it's Lord Dinos! I've heard the captain mention you before. I've heard you're the successor of the Lionheart Knight; I've heard so much about you!"

Lionheart Knight was a legendary knight who predated the Black Knight and had a long-standing reputation. He was also the Black Knight's idol in his youth.

"From now on, I will also be cultivating in the mortal realm. I hope you will all give me your guidance," Dinos said.

"It's not a matter of giving you guidance, but rather mutual improvement. I see that you have already broken through the shackles of the legendary realm. At such a young age, to have reached the second step of a knight is truly admirable," the Black Knight said humbly.

Levi interrupted their mutual flattery and asked, "What are the Blood Knights, the Divine Light Knights, and the Hogger Knights doing these days?"

"The Blood Knight traveled through seven kingdoms in the mortal realm. Now that dark creatures are rampant in the mortal realm, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he used this method to train and hone his skills. The Divine Light Knight went to the Peacock City, apparently because of family matters. The Hogg Knight has been in the City of Ten Thousand Dragons."

Li Wei nodded and then said, "Send people to recall them all. The Seven Kingdoms Continent is not safe anymore, so try to avoid going there. Also, our Twilight Temple will be moving soon, so we need to make some preparations."

"Understood, I'll take care of it right away."

After letting the Black Knight and Dinos get to know each other, Levi left Twilight Island alone.

"Now, the only official member missing from the Twilight Knights is Mu Di, who has disappeared somewhere."

Li Wei sighed and headed towards the Seven Kingdoms Continent.

……

The Shining Tavern in Stormwind.

Li Wei inquired about the recent changes in the human world.

Over the past few years.

The plague continues to break out on a small scale, as if some force is controlling its course.

The seven major churches also used their own methods to try to find the source of the plague.

So far, there seems to be no result.

In short, the current epidemic has become a kind of normalized phenomenon.

Although these incidents occur from time to time, they do not result in many deaths, and gradually, people have even become somewhat accustomed to them.

This gave Li Wei the feeling that the culprit behind the plague was slowly boiling the frog in water.

"That being is definitely accumulating power in secret, so it doesn't dare to be too high-profile. It is waiting for an opportunity."

The being Li Wei was referring to was naturally the Father of Plague, who was defeated by a legendary wizard and may have left some tricks up his sleeve among mortals.

Besides plague disasters.

The recent drought and wildfires in many parts of the Tuva Empire have dealt a heavy blow to the empire.

This is undoubtedly related to the fire element spirit; with its power, it can scorch the land for miles, which is no joke.

Li Wei guessed that the fire elemental spirits must have been defeated by the church.

Otherwise, the disasters that guy brings to humanity would not be as simple as droughts or fires.

"In other words, that saint from the Storm Church is actually capable of contending with a level 5 fire elemental spirit. This must be due to the sealing of the sacred artifact... Otherwise, the speed at which these saints are increasing in strength is terrifying."

Li Wei felt a wave of fear wash over him; he felt his advancement had been fast enough.

But he discovered that those saints were even more extraordinary than him, who was using cheat codes.

"Sigh... Is this the power of God?"

He muttered to himself.

In any case, it seems that the problem of the level 5 fire elemental spirit has been resolved without any major incidents, so Li Wei can rest assured.

After all, he didn't want that guy to destroy the world.

Apart from plague and drought.

In recent years, cult organizations have emerged more and more frequently.

Some time ago, within the territory of the Peacock Kingdom.

There are signs of "Brotherhood of the Wilderness" activities again.

This restless organization that worships the Lord of the Wilderness, like the White Lotus Sect in its previous life, begins to emerge and rebel whenever there is chaos.

The Wildlands Brotherhood was last seen before the fall of the Emerald Kingdom, during the Black Mountain Rebellion.

The emergence of various cults indicates that, in addition to the seven gods, some equally ambitious non-orthodox gods are also beginning to intervene in the great battle for faith.

"It's getting more and more chaotic."

Li Wei pondered in his heart.

We need to hurry up and finish exploring that small plane where the Ancient Saint Empire is located.

With this divine weapon, his strength has greatly increased, and Li Wei believes he should be able to unify the three great empires.

After doing all this, the Twilight Temple will be moved to a smaller plane, allowing the Knights and the natives to explore the plane together and make use of the resources.

Then Li Wei could watch from the sidelines in a smaller plane, observing the fierce battles between those demons and monsters.

He, on the other hand, kept to himself, happily farming, occasionally going out to pick up bargains and reaping the benefits—wasn't that wonderful?

On the other side, in the Flower City, life was peaceful and serene. After giving some instructions to Andrew, Li Wei left.

The land of the open sea.

On the deserted island connecting the ancient holy planes, Li Wei's figure descended.

Sensing its master's presence, a pile of rubble suddenly took shape, forming the figure of Bo Gang.

"Well done, thank you for your hard work."

With Bo Gang stationed here, Li Wei felt reassured.

He stepped onto the altar and disappeared.

When they appeared, they were already inside that dilapidated temple.

Everything seemed unchanged from when he left.

In Black-Patterned City.

Old lizard Kane had grown even older, and was drowsy all day long. He looked at the battle reports coming from the front, his heart filled with worry.

In recent years, after the newly established Ancient Saint Empire was founded, in accordance with the will of the Empire's ruler, the Ancient Saint of Broken Void, the major city-states ceased their chaotic warfare and began to recuperate.

However, after a short period of recuperation, they were attacked from both sides by the Wind God Empire from the northern Intis Mountains region and the Azure Dragon Empire from the South Sea.

Although the Ancient Saint of Broken Void was powerful, he was still no match for the two empire rulers, the Golden Feather King and the Azure Sea King.

In particular, since almost all of the Feathered People had mastered the ability to fly and possessed an air superiority, the Ancient Holy Empire suffered repeated defeats and its cities were captured one after another when the entire population mobilized.

This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the nascent empire.

In the face of this sudden war, even two ancient saints perished.

This was a revered ancient sage, a synonym for power, yet he has fallen.

Old Kane was eager to fight the enemy, but his aging body only allowed him to do simple clerical work in the city lord's mansion.

He knew that he would not be able to see the Ancient Holy Empire regain its former glory before he died.

The "original sage" who made a fleeting glimpse has been gone for seven years.

Perhaps if he were here, there would still be hope to salvage the situation.

"Old Kane, what are you dawdling for? Hurry up and pack your things, prepare to evacuate. The Feathered People's army is about to attack." Monka's reprimanding voice came.

"Yes, sir," old Kane sighed.

The ancient sages' grand unification was ultimately just a dream, a fleeting illusion, all for naught...

Soon.

On the distant horizon of Blackpatial City.

A massive, dark army swept in like a flock of birds.

Those were the Feathered People.

The leader of the winged people was a man with sharp eyes and a beak like that of a hawk.

His name is Ido, and he belongs to the Crimson Falcon clan among the Feathered People. He is extremely fast, as fast as lightning, and his strength is equivalent to that of an Ancient Serpent-level expert from the Ancient Holy Empire.

Behind him, winged people flapped their wings and soared through the sky; their eyesight was also extremely sharp.

They can lock onto their prey on the ground from tens of thousands of meters in the air, and these winged people have all kinds of weapons on their claws, among which arrows are the most common.

"The Feathered People are here! Everyone, take cover in the air-raid shelters and prepare for battle!" Monka's voice echoed throughout Black Pattern City. His strong body stood proudly on the city wall, gripping a giant sword, his fiery blood power boiling.

Since we can't run away, let's fight.

As the Feathered People's army swept across the land like locusts, all sorts of boulders, stone spears, and sharp arrows rained down from the sky. These objects were moving faster and faster, and were imbued with a mysterious power, enough to pierce through the hard scales of the lizardmen of the Ancient Holy Empire.

In the eyes of the Feathered People, lizardmen are synonymous with barbarity, backwardness, and antiquity. Only the Feathered People, who are as free as the wind, are the most advanced darlings of the sky and the best form of life evolution!

As the Feathered People launched their airdrop attack, Blackpaty City was as if it had been hit by a meteor shower.

Houses collapsed one after another, and many of the lizardmen who did not have time to escape to the air-raid shelter were crushed to death on the spot, their deaths tragic.

Only those at the lizard or snake level and above can survive the hail of bullets thanks to their powerful physique and combat skills.

"You old fogies down there, aren't you going to surrender?"

High in the sky, Ido hovered there, looking down at Monka with a cold smile.

With a whoosh.

An arrow came flying through the air, but Ido dodged it.

"Your arrows... are too slow," Ido said haughtily.

Suddenly, crimson feathers appeared on his body, radiating a metallic sheen.

"The Will of the Wind King..."

He seemed to be chanting some kind of incantation.

The next moment, these crimson feathers burst into flames, transforming into arrows of fire!

Whoosh whoosh!

The sound of metal clashing resounded around Monka.

hiss.

Monca cried out in pain. Although he had parried with his greatsword, he had still been struck in the leg by an arrow.

He pulled out the arrow, stared at the gruesome wound, flicked his tongue, and grinned menacingly, "If the original ancient sage were still alive, would you have dared to be so presumptuous?"

"As expected, your Ancient Saint Empire is nothing but a bunch of old relics immersed in past glories... Little do they know that times are progressing, and the Feathered People are born in accordance with the times. We are the protagonists of this era."

And you can only resort to the same old rhetoric of the "Primordial Ancient Saint" to intimidate us, but where is the Primordial Ancient Saint? So many years have passed, and the Ancient Saint Empire is riddled with problems; why hasn't he come to save you? This is all wishful thinking on your part.

Ido mocked mercilessly.

"They're nothing but a bunch of mutated monsters. Your ancestors were once people of the Ancient Holy Empire, and they were also crawlers. They've gained an advantage and then forgotten their ancestors. What despicable behavior," Monka said disdainfully.

"Words are useless, let's see who's the best." With a wave of his hand, Ido's circling army of winged people launched a second wave of attack.

The Black-Patterned City warriors below attacked with arrows, but discovered that the feathers seemed to form some kind of array.

A fierce wind swept across the land, and their arrows couldn't hit the feathers at all.

"Hahaha." Ido swooped down, transforming into a crimson phantom that hovered around Monka.

A series of wind-blade-like attacks hurtled towards Monka.

Monca struggled to cope and soon found himself at a disadvantage.

Blood-red blades appeared on his body, and excruciating pain shot through him.

"Is all you can do is tickle me?" Monca's greatsword suddenly slashed out, and the scorching air struck Ido, who was flashing by.

Ido was sent flying backward, crying out in pain as a burning pain shot through his chest, revealing a gruesome wound from which blood flowed freely.

He drank something that resembled a potion, and a hazy blue light enveloped his wounds.

Ido's face was ashen, and his feathers stood on end.

"It was just a moment of carelessness that allowed you to succeed."

He quickly distanced himself from Monka, using his ranged advantage to attack Monka with feather arrows and wind blades.

At this moment, Monka was like a bull, with all his strength, but he was being toyed with by Naido, feeling extremely frustrated. On the other hand, the opponent's ranged attacks were continuously causing him damage.

"Die!"

Monca is no longer on defense.

"Lord, let's retreat!" Old Kane's voice rang out from the air-raid shelter.

Like Old Kane, the ordinary lizardmen hiding in the air-raid shelter looked desperate. Even their powerful city lord, an ancient serpent-level expert, was powerless against the winged people's army. Did the lizardmen have any future?

Monka attacked frantically, his body riddled with wounds and bleeding profusely, looking as if he might collapse at any moment.

He was panting heavily, his vision was blurry, and he stood there, frozen in place.

Because he saw a red figure rushing towards him in the distance, which seemed to be that "Nameless Ancient Saint".

Could it be that I'm about to die and I'm hallucinating...? Didn't some ancient sage claim that the nameless ancient sage, who was suspected to be the original ancient sage, has died?

As Ido flew at high speed, he looked at the stunned Monka and sneered. Hundreds of years ago, his Feathered People received guidance from a "god" in the ancient ruins and had mastered many "divine arts" and "divine medicines". After a hundred years of dormancy and development, the strength of the Feathered People was naturally incomparable to these backward antique lizardmen.

"Too weak! Can you keep up with my speed?"

Ido's laughter, accompanied by the howling wind, echoed between heaven and earth.

"Noisy."

A large hand covered in red scales appeared in front of Ido at some point and grabbed Ido's bird neck.

A strong feeling of suffocation washed over him, and Ido's pupils dilated as he stared in horror at the lizardman wreathed in crimson flames before him.

The other party flicked out its golden forked tongue, looking at him as if he were a tiny insect, without the slightest ripple of emotion.

Heido was being choked by a lizardman and couldn't move!

"Feather Burst Technique!"

Ido's feathers began to tremble, and then all the feathers gathered together to form a torrent of arrows that blasted towards the lizardman.

Crackle, crackle.

After a series of metallic clanging sounds, Ido's steel feather blades were all broken and shattered on the ground.

The lizardman stood there unharmed.

The hairless Ido looked terrified.

This is undoubtedly a powerful being at the level of an ancient saint.

However, the problem is that the Ancient Saint of Burning Heaven is seriously injured and in seclusion. Logically speaking, there should be no more Ancient Saints in the Fire Lizard Clan.

Wait a minute... those old fogies say that the ancient saints were just in seclusion at the beginning, and did not die.

Could this really be true?

Could this person in front of me really be the "original ancient saint"?

High in the sky, the Feathered People watched as their leader was captured, and immediately all sorts of attacks came crashing down from below.

Li Wei held the hairless birdman in one hand, and with a thought, a miniature fire dragon roared and appeared from his fingertip. It then flew out of his hand, grew larger in the wind, and soared into the sky.

One by one, the winged people were roasted and fell to the ground in front of the fire dragon, while the rest fled in a frenzy.

"burst."

Li Wei said softly.

Then, the fire dragon exploded.

The flames swept everything away, and then the sky became clear.

The cacophony of the feathered people finally disappeared completely.

Ido stopped struggling, his heart filled with horror.

"This...this is divine intervention."
