Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 288 Giant Beast Paradise, Senior Fourth Ring! (Long chapter, please vote and subscribe!)

world.

Overseas.

Paradise Island.

Five years ago, this was just an ordinary deserted island.

After Melina and a group of young psychic wizards arrived in this place, they established the "Paradise" organization.

Subsequently, the entire island was used as a base for cultivating extraordinary creatures.

However, nowadays...

Melina gazed at the crumbling three-ring magic array, her heart filled with sorrow and despair.

She had thought that choosing this overseas location would be safer.

In fact, they were indeed safe for a long time, a full five years, without any forces disturbing them.

Over the past five years, the park's infrastructure has been largely completed and it is thriving.

The turmoil and chaos on the seven continents were none of their concern.

Unfortunately, not long ago, a group of cave wizards, while loitering among humans, inadvertently passed by this place and discovered Paradise Island.

Cave wizards are now basically "dark wizards" among humans.

Living in harsh conditions for a long time, in order to survive, they plundered everything they could see, like locusts.

now.

A vicious and arrogant criminal force is outside the magic circle, with more than a dozen wizards frantically attacking it!

This group of people came from a level four cave on the edge of the Forsaken Land.

The Lord of the Caverns is a fourth-circle wizard, Gargoyle Ur, who is incredibly powerful!

Beside Ur were three third-ring wizards and a dozen or so low-ranking wizards.

This force is a major power even in the outer regions of the Endless Sea, let alone in the human realm.

With a wave of his hand, a third-ring wizard conjured a giant rock, which he then hurled at the magic circle.

boom!

The magic circle trembled once more.

"Hehehe, surrender! Our leader is a fourth-circle wizard... Even with your third-circle protective array, how long can you hold out against such a fierce attack?"

In the park, including Melina, there are three third-ring wizards.

However, they do not possess combat strength at the fourth-ring level.

This is why Melina was so desperate.

That fourth-circle wizard over there, with his sallow skin and ferocious appearance, hasn't even made a move yet!

"Master, the enemy's attack is too fierce, and the magic array is consuming too much energy. We have to replenish the Tai Stones. Our Tai Stone reserves are almost depleted..." asked a third-ring wizard named Frick, a student of Melina's father and a master of breeding extraordinary creatures.

"Director, why don't we remove the magic circle? We still have those extraordinary creatures; we can fight them," said Ray, a third-ring wizard.

Melina said, "I also have a fourth-circle spell scroll that my father left me. If used properly, it can kill that fourth-circle wizard."

Frick instantly understood: "Then Ray and I will distract the other third-ring wizards and create an opportunity for you. Be careful. If you can't kill them, then run away and don't worry about us... With your father's legacy, as long as you live, Paradise can be rebuilt!"

Melina remained silent: "Let's give it a try."

In an instant, the three-ring magic array completely failed.

Frick and Ray, two third-ring wizards, summoned their respective necromancers: a level three Ghost-Headed Tiger Eagle and a Dark Dire Wolf!

Melina then summoned her six-winged Sky Sea Dragon!

This is a powerful hybrid dragon, its complete form being the Ten-Winged Heavenly Sea Dragon King, a level five creature.

With her talent, as long as she continues her cultivation step by step, she can become a powerful figure like her father, and then she should be able to protect Paradise in the human world.

But now, the chances are slim!

"Tsk tsk, so you're starting to fight desperately?" Ur's ferocious face revealed a cruel smile.

With a wave of his hand, he unleashed a four-ring [Meteor Explosion]!

A meteor fell from the sky, exploded with a loud bang, and a terrifying shockwave swept out.

The charging six-winged Sky Sea Dragon was blasted away.

"Hydra, stall him a little longer!" Melina commanded.

Hydra, already wounded, let out a long roar, and a terrifying water tornado hurtled towards Ur.

Ur sneered, clasped his hands together, and pairs of rocky arms stretched out from all directions, once again swatting the Hydra away.

"That's the difference between the Fourth Ring Road and the Third Ring Road, understand?" Ur sneered.

The next moment, his expression changed.

While he was brutally beating Hydra, Melina tore open a scroll.

"Fourth Ring Spell: Fire Drill!"

A phantom image of a fiery dragon centipede appeared out of nowhere and charged toward Ur.

The Flame Dragon Centipede was Melina's father's level-five summoned beast. This was a life-saving scroll that her father made for her. She had even had a five-ring scroll before, but she used it up in the Endless Sea.

Ur's protective force field flickered, and countless rocky arms enveloped him.

Rumble!

"Boss!"

The other wizards exclaimed in surprise.

In the firelight, Ur's body emerged; he was covered in wounds, but not seriously injured.

The black body-refining runes on his body shone brightly, making him look like a real gargoyle!

"Do you know why I'm called a gargoyle? Because I cultivate both magic and physical strength!" Ur sneered inwardly.

The path of body-refining wizards remains largely unchanged between ancient times and the present.

Fewer and fewer wizards are taking this path, so progress is minimal and development has stagnated.

In some respects, modern body-refining methods have even regressed compared to those of ancient times.

Ur practices the Gargoyle Body Refinement Technique, which can be cultivated to the level of a fifth-circle wizard. It was created by ancient wizards based on the gargoyle, a hellish demon.

Upon seeing this, Melina turned and fled.

Ur burst forth like a cannonball, and the gargoyle's demonic wings emerged.

On the other side, Flick, Ray, and the others' expressions changed drastically. They wanted to help Melina, but they were too busy to help her.

"Why are you running? Become my maid, and I'll spare your life," Ur said with a calm and composed smile.

Seeing that their leader was alright, the other cave wizards breathed a sigh of relief and resumed their arrogant demeanor.

Melina's force field flickered incessantly as she desperately fled, but Ur drew ever closer.

Hydra, eager to protect its master, rushed out of the sea, only to be slapped away by Ur and seriously injured.

Melina, whose life was intertwined with Hydra's, also suddenly became lethargic and vomited blood.

"Hahaha!"

Ur's ghostly claws reached out to grab Melina.

No sooner said than done.

Before him, ripples spread through the void, and the serpentine hermit runes vanished.

A burly man, dressed in black flame armor and wearing a blood-red cloak that fluttered in the wind, stood there with his arms crossed, straight and tall.

His appearance was too sudden, and Ur was too fast. With a loud thud, he crashed into the man's chest.

Ur's gargoyle body collided with the man's armor.

The man remained unmoved; he did nothing, and Ur was sent flying.

On its stone body, fine cracks appeared, and black flames, like maggots clinging to bones, flickered on its surface.

Ur looked blank for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening.

He immediately turned and ran, only to find that on his way back, a majestic alchemical creature with fiery wings blocked his path.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking my way? I am Gargoyle Ur!" Ur said coldly.

"Ur? Never heard of him. Phoenix, beat him half to death first... leave him alive," Levi said calmly.

"Blood Lady, kill the rest of the henchmen."

The Blood Armor Corpse Demon, wielding the Moonlight Greatsword, charged into the enemy ranks and hacked wildly, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere!

Li Wei had been observing the battle for a while. He only showed himself now, firstly to assess the situation and avoid getting himself caught in a bigger vortex, since the cave wizards still had some Yuanhun-level forces among them.

On the other hand, he had a plan in mind.

Melina is a member of the psychic school, as are the other wizards on the island.

And psychic wizards are exactly the kind of talent that Li Wei needs most to establish his extraordinary creature breeding base!

Therefore, he decided to find a way to recruit them.

If we're going to incorporate them, we need to establish our authority first!

At Melina's most desperate moment, he made a public display of divine power, leaving behind a tall, imposing, and handsome figure. Combined with the charm bonus from his lover's rune, it would be much easier to recruit him!

Phoenix pilots the Tyrant IV, the Flame Emperor roars, and the Thor thunders!

Phoenix fought very hard; whenever it saw the Cave Wizard, it was reminded of the Lord of Darklight.

If it weren't for the Lord of Blacklight, it wouldn't have been captured by Li Wei!

Urna's proud gargoyle body was cracked and bleeding from the Fiery Dragon Sword.

Ur was captured without much effort.

On the other side, the Blood Armor Corpse Demon had already slaughtered all of Ur's underlings.

Ul was escorted by Phoenix to Levi.

"Do you want to live? Or do you want to die?"

Li Wei's question was concise and to the point.

"Live! I want to live! I'll do anything for you!" Ur said hastily, seeing a glimmer of hope.

Having lived in the land abandoned by God for hundreds of years, no one longed to live more than him.

"Not bad, that's very insightful."

The Sword of Oath appeared, and Ur was instructed to swear an oath as required.

Li Wei did not take Ur's worthless magical artifacts and the pitiful amount of Taishi.

They only took away his magical knowledge, most importantly his book, "Gargoyle Body Refining Method".

"Such a wonderful method is wasted on Ur; it should rightfully belong to me!"

This is a body-refining method that can be cultivated to the fifth ring, on the same level as the Frost Body Refining Method.

This will be of great use to Li Wei as he continues to deduce the body-refining methods!

"It's a pleasant surprise," Li Wei said in a good mood.

After enslaving Ur, Levi looked at Melina, whose face was blank.

A century has passed, and the years and hardships have made Melina more mature and her gaze more resolute.

Wasn't Li Wei the same? Melina looked at the figure before her, and it began to overlap with the person in her distant memory.

Although it was just a chance encounter, it left a deep impression on her.

"Ms. Melina, how have you been?" Li Wei said with a smile.

"Senior, you are Li Wei from Mirror Lake?" Melina was shocked.

When she parted ways with Li Wei, he was only at the peak of the second ring, not much stronger than her.

Only a hundred years have passed, and she is only a senior member of the third ring, having mastered her second innate spell.

However, the opponent was already able to easily slaughter Ur, who was at the fourth ring.

It should be noted that although Ur is an outdated version of the Crypt Wizard, he is skilled in both magic and physical cultivation, and his strength is not weak.

Judging from Li Wei's performance, his true strength is at least at the fourth level of perfection, or even the fifth level...

"What exactly happened in the past hundred years?" Melina couldn't help but wonder.

"Long time no see, why don't we find a place to chat?" Li Wei said with a smile.

Melina was flattered; Li Wei's polite attitude made her feel that he was unfathomable.

"Senior, these cave wizards?"

"I still have some use for that Ur. Keep him alive, but kill the rest," Li Wei said with a smile.

"Okay, senior, I'll go and calm my companions down, and then catch up with you." Melina arrived at Paradise Island.

Although the battle was dangerous, Li Wei's timely appearance prevented any major casualties; only some extraordinary creatures were frightened.

"Melina... who is that being?" Frick hesitated.

The powerful figure in the sky effortlessly dealt with the fourth-circle wizard. Such strength actually appeared in the mortal realm, and it seems he even knows Melina.

"I used to know someone who's in the same industry. They're all fine now. You and Ray can take care of things," Melina said with a smile, her mood gradually calming down.

"Okay, then be careful," Ray said.

Melina tidied herself up and then quickly took to the air.

"Melina has so many friends abroad. If it weren't for that senior, we would all be dead here," Flick said, still shaken.

"It's so hard to find a quiet place these days," Ray sighed.

High above, Li Wei set up a soundproof barrier and learned of Melina's later ordeal from her, for which he felt deep sympathy.

"What are your plans next?" Li Wei asked.

"Let's find another place to rebuild the amusement park," Melina said helplessly.

"And then, what would you do if you encountered an enemy like that again?"

"I...I don't know either. People shouldn't be that unlucky, right?" Melina's eyes were somewhat confused.

She realized that her strength was too weak to protect the park and ensure its safe growth.

"You know Lord Newt, so you should know that I am also an extraordinary biologist, right?" Levi said with a smile.

Melina nodded.

"The idea of ​​the amusement park is excellent. You have the ideas, I have the capabilities, and I have a safe place where you can conduct your research and cultivation of extraordinary creatures undisturbed. Moreover, the elemental power there is more concentrated than in the human world."

Li Wei spoke confidently, for he and Melina were no longer from the same world, and the scenery they saw was different.

"If you have any requests, please feel free to speak up," Melina said after thinking for a moment.

"I can provide you with a base, or even more extraordinary creatures, and corresponding start-up capital, but you and your organization must pledge allegiance to me and swear an oath under one of my treasures. As long as you do not break the oath, nothing will happen, but if you do, the price will be... your life."

I will not interfere with your normal research, as long as it is related to extraordinary beings.

What I want to do is create a giant monster paradise teeming with extraordinary creatures!

Li Wei said it bluntly.

"Senior, let me think about it. I also need to discuss it with my partners. I can't make decisions for everyone," Melina said after a moment's thought.

She was struggling internally; she didn't want to rely on powerful forces anymore, which is why she rejected the invitation from Starfire Wizarding Academy.

But the current situation forces her to rethink the future of the amusement park.

"Okay, go ahead, and give me an answer as soon as possible," Li Wei said seriously, looking at Melina.

Melina nodded and returned to Paradise Island.

Next, the discussion became quite heated, and there were probably significant disagreements among them.

He closed his eyes and pondered. If all else failed, he would resort to force.

If it weren't for them, they would have died at the hands of the cave wizard long ago. The weak should be aware of their weakness.

Not long after, Melina arrived at Li Wei's side.

"Senior, we're joining."

"All of them?"

"Yes, all of them!"

"Alright then."

Li Wei arrived above Paradise Island, and the Sword of Oath appeared on his back, piercing straight into the clouds.

"If you wish to gain my protection, you must swear an oath before this sword, as I demand. Once sworn, you must not break the oath, or you will perish!"

If it weren't for the fact that the knowledge they possessed was what Li Wei needed, he wouldn't even bother forming a contract with them.

Melina and the rest of the Paradise Organization swore an oath under the sword.

Li Wei originally intended to go to the Seven Kingdoms continent, but has now changed his plans at the last minute.

"None of you should resist. I will take you to the camp," Li Wei said.

Then, with a wave of his hand, these people were sent into his Alice Ring.

Li Wei is currently in seclusion in the human world, so all the extraordinary creatures live in the Mountain and Sea Beast Garden near the Imperial Palace.

Alice's Ring is temporarily deserted.

"What a huge space... This must be at least a fourth- or even fifth-ring extraordinary creature artifact," Ray exclaimed.

"It seems that you are indeed an extraordinary biologist." Melina felt much more at ease.

Not long after.

Li Wei then arrived at the entrance to the Ancient Saint Plane.

In the fiery hell, blood demons and poisonous fire corpse demons reign supreme.

In the Rolling Stone Hell, there is the mountain giant Pogan.

"Bogang, you no longer need to stay here. Go back to the Ancient Saint Plane and cultivate in peace. Advance to the fourth-circle wizard as soon as possible," Li Wei said.

"Master, who will guard the Rolling Stone Hell?" Bo Gang asked.

"Let him be."

Li Wei released Ur.

Ur looked at the giant magic circle like a startled bird.

"Guard the magic array for me for a hundred years, and then you can cultivate in my secret realm in peace," Li Wei said.

Ur is a very talented person, as evidenced by his ability to cultivate both body and magic in the resource-scarce Land of the Gods. He has the potential to advance to the fifth ring in the future and is worth using.

Upon hearing this, Ur calculated in his mind that a fourth-circle wizard's lifespan is around seven hundred years. He is currently four hundred years old and will retire at five hundred, leaving him with two hundred years of free time.

He never expected Levi to be so humane; it was exactly the kind of work he had always dreamed of in a wizarding organization!

"These are some of the latest magical knowledge from the Earth School. When you are in charge of the magic array, study them carefully to enhance your strength. As long as you are loyal to your duties, you can also receive some cultivation resources from me every year."

"Thank you very much, sir. I am deeply grateful!" Ur solemnly put it away.

Although he was bound by the Oath Sword before, he was still very unhappy. Now he is truly convinced.

He became a dark wizard to seize resources for his cultivation. Now that he's here guarding the gate, he's achieved his goal directly, so why not?

Li Wei left with Bo Gang. A combination of kindness and strictness is the best way to manage subordinates.

The blood demon in the fiery hell gazed at the newcomer, Ur, and thought to himself, "Another one who avoided a hundred years of detours. The end for a rogue wizard is ending up here guarding the gate!"

Ancient Sage Plane.

Li Wei released Melina and the others from the ring.

"Senior, where is this?" Melina gazed at this world that seemed so different from the human realm.

Mountains, plains, towering primeval forests, and the roars of beasts.

"This is my secret realm, which you may call the Ancient Saint's Secret Realm."

The Ancient Saint Plane is a small plane; in terms of area, it is not much larger than the large secret realms of the Nora Plane.

However, those large secret realms are all controlled by top-tier organizations.

"All the creatures in this secret realm are raised by me, including some ferocious level four creatures, so don't wander around, they don't recognize you," Li Wei said.

"Okay, senior."

"I will arrange a base for you to raise extraordinary creatures. You can build a giant beast park here. In addition to the giant beast park, there are two other organizations in this secret realm: the Twilight Temple and the Ancient Dragon Empire."

Both of these organizations are mine. I will speak to them and they will be independent from now on. They only need to be responsible to me and must not kill each other.

If you need help, Melina, you can go to those two organizations and find their leaders.

Li Wei said calmly.

The members of this amusement park were deeply shocked.

"Such a vast secret realm, all of it belongs to him, and there are even two organizations that sound very powerful. Is this person really that young and accomplished? Even the son of the master of the Spirit Tower is not this wealthy!" Frick said in disbelief.

From Melina, they learned that the senior was about the same age as Melina, and among wizards of his level, they were both considered young wizards.

In their eyes, Li Wei is now a true winner in life.

Next, Li Wei instructed the Elders to send someone to liaise with Melina and carve out a piece of land from the Ancient Dragon Empire to begin construction of the Giant Beast Paradise.

Wizard Tower, Bloodline Bank, Breeding Base, Feed Planting Base, Training Ground, Wilding Base... a series of infrastructure projects began construction.

With the help of the council of elders, all of these things were completed in less than six months.

In the Flower Month of the year 1155 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Giant Beast Park was officially completed.

The honorary director is naturally Li Wei, but in reality, it is the highly skilled worker Melina who manages the kindergarten.

Specialization is key. After the park was established, Melina and other park staff classified and numbered the low-level extraordinary creatures that Levi had previously raised, and began to artificially breed them. They also used some small magic arrays to simulate their natural environment in the wild.

The park also registered all the extraordinary creatures that had been single for a long time and handed the list to Li Wei. Li Wei then passed the list on to the other members of the Knights, especially the Middle-earth team, so that they could find mates for these single creatures.

Middle-earth is relatively rich in resources and still retains many extraordinary species, which are a huge treasure trove.

In this way...

Li Wei can continue to be a hands-off manager.

As the leader of three organizations and the master of this ancient holy plane, he only needs to coordinate the overall situation and cannot handle every detail. Cultivation is his top priority.

……

Several months later.

Li Wei emerged from his seclusion.

"The chariot rune is at level eight, increasing speed by 70%, making it much faster to run. Next, I need to prepare the fifth talent spell."

The Storm faction emphasizes speed and control, and its common spells include "Wind Slash" and "Tornado".

Therefore, my second fourth-ring talent can only be developed in three directions.

Firstly, like Thunder Dragon Flash, it should be developed into an escape skill, focusing on long-distance movement.

Secondly, develop auxiliary movement techniques that allow for short-range dodging and maneuvering, such as "Wind Shadow Step".

Third, control the direction.

As for attack spells like wind blades and air cannons, they were not within his consideration.

After thinking it over, Li Wei decided to take the second route.

For escaping, there's Thunder Dragon Flash, Crimson Shadow, and Crimson Escape, which are basically enough.

In contrast, he needs to develop skills for close-range dashes and assassinations to amplify his melee advantages and complement his chivalry.

Having decided on the next direction, Li Wei left the Ancient Saint Plane.

He found the portal to the Realm of Divine Wind and arrived at the Storm faction's dojo.

The map of the Divine Wind Realm is similar to that of the Endless Sea, also located on a vast ocean, but much smaller in area.

In this land known as the "Sea of ​​Wind," terrible windstorms blow year-round, with turbulent air currents and howling winds being the main theme.

This time, I'm just buying some spell knowledge that's widely available on the market, so there's no danger involved.

Three months later, Li Wei successfully returned from the Divine Wind Realm, without encountering any incidents such as being robbed by black wizards.

The only thing that pained him was that after purchasing large quantities of basic knowledge from various schools of thought, his Taishi reserves were reduced to only five million!

Through his centuries of accumulation and relentless investment in acquiring knowledge, coupled with the timely assistance of his black wizard followers, he achieved his goal.

His spellbook contains over 5000 spells, 1565 low-level spells, 323 third-ring spells, 108 fourth-ring spells, and 16 fifth-ring spells, encompassing more than a dozen wizarding schools. It can be said that Livy is a walking spellbook.

In addition, there are the ancient spells in the Mirror of True Knowledge. Although the versions are outdated, they are still of reference value.

These are his most precious assets.

After returning to the human world, he did not go out and have fun. Instead, he immediately returned to the Ancient Saint Plane to go into seclusion and begin researching the fifth talent spell.

With the opening of the Dark Tower drawing ever closer, he must do everything he can to increase his strength.

He has everything he needs now, and he only wants to seize the day!

……

In the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

The year 1156 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Vitality.

In addition to the spiritual practice, the 55th roundtable meeting also came to a successful conclusion.

Andrew has begun preparations to advance to the rank of a full-fledged wizard, and he expects to break through this year. As for the Blood Awakening Knight realm, it may take some more time.

The Divine Light Knight has also advanced to the Bloodborne Knight rank. One of the level-three extraordinary materials needed for her advancement potion came from the Beast Paradise.

The Blood Knight explored the Forsaken Lands and obtained a small piece of [Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Iron]. Because of this, he was hunted down by a third-ring Crypt Wizard organization for half a year. Fortunately, his Maya Breathing technique was good at escaping and endurance, and he eventually escaped without any serious danger.

Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Iron.

This is a relatively rare level-four elemental metal, which not only contains wind element, but also contains a trace of dark moon power within dark energy.

He learned that Li Wei needed materials containing wind elements and wanted to return to give them to Li Wei, but Li Wei refused.

With Li Wei's current perspective, level four elemental metals are no longer worth considering, and that piece is too small to forge the Sky Dragon Divine Weapon he envisions.

Besides, the Blood Knight obtained this elemental metal at great personal risk, so he wouldn't exploit his own senior and outstanding employees.

The Blood Knight's Maya Breathing Technique is also of the wind element type. He is also a secondary vampire. This Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Iron is simply a divine weapon material tailor-made for him!

On the Middle-earth side, last year they recruited a knight prospect with dual elemental affinity, as well as a Blood Awakening Knight from Middle-earth, the legendary "Thousand Illusion Knight," named Erica, a female knight whose ancestral breathing technique is the "Illusionary Beast Breathing Technique."

This breathing technique is clearly a perfect quality breathing technique of the perception type.

Mythical Beasts are legendary canine creatures, similar to foxes, that can construct powerful illusions and cast alluring spells.

It is said that the allure of mythical beasts is even more terrifying than that of succubi.

Erica's knightly family moved to Middle-earth thousands of years ago with a wizard, where they lived as his knights and servants and have survived ever since.

Ironically, thousands of years later, while the wizard has long since vanished into the annals of history, this knightly family has miraculously survived to this day and has even produced what mortals consider "legendary knights"!

However, her good fortune didn't last long. Not long after Erica's legend, she was captured by a second-circle wizard and became his servant. Later, that second-circle wizard died at the hands of a dark wizard.

Then, the wandering Erica was discovered by the Black Knights, and after being persuaded by the Middle-earth quartet, she joined the Knights of Middle-earth.

Once a group of people has been gathered in the future, the Black Knight will bring the Thousand Illusion Knights to the human world for a pilgrimage. At that time, Erica may become the tenth official member of the Twilight Knights.

Li Wei also collected the "Phantom Beast Breathing Technique" for future use.

Now, the Twilight Knights can be said to have split into three groups.

The four members of the Twilight Temple headquarters – Darkmoon, Silver Dragon, Golden Lion, and Divine Light Knight – are primarily responsible for research on talent imprints.

The Blood Knight explores the Forsaken Lands alone.

Ash, Goddess, Holy Ape, and Black Knight established branches in Middle-earth.

It can be said that the development situation is very promising!

On the other hand, the Giant Beast Park is also on the right track.

The Ancient Dragon Empire, needless to say, remains the strongest of the three major powers in Li Wei.

After Li Wei breaks through to the fifth ring, he plans to start researching the ancient saint techniques, hoping that the ancient saints can all break through the fourth level ceiling and enter the fifth level.

The Ancient Saint Path and the Knight Path are largely similar, essentially both being paths of bloodline. It was likely a relatively successful experiment by Sauron, referencing the Knights, as it resulted in the creation of numerous Level 4 Ancient Saints. The most successful experimental subject, the original Ancient Saint Yuan Tuo, even surpassed Level 4.

The ancient sage's increase in strength was partly due to breaking through this level four ceiling.

On the other hand, it is necessary to enhance the ancient saints' means of combat, enabling them to master extraordinary abilities similar to "talent imprints".

Once the Knights' theories are mature, Andrew or Dinos will be sent to the Council of Elders to guide the Ancient Saints, who will then learn from the Knights and create their own unique talents and abilities.

If he could possess dozens of ancient saints comparable to fifth-ring wizards, then Li Wei would have nothing to fear in this ancient saint plane except for Yuanhun wizards!

Furthermore, if combined with advanced legion battle formations and the combined power of dozens of level-five ancient saints, perhaps... they could even threaten a Yuanhun Wizard.

After outlining future plans for the three major organizations, Li Wei continued to stay in the Imperial Palace, cultivating and researching his fifth talent.

……

The month of harvest in the year 1156 of the Holy Radiance Calendar.

The northern part of the Peacock Kingdom.

Black Mountain City.

On the Frozen Throne.

A blue portal suddenly appeared.

The silver-haired witch Celie appears here.

However, witches are a thing of the past.

The half-elf Celie, who possesses the divine blood of the Lord of Blue Frost, has long since abandoned the path of wizardry. After awakening her divine power, her strength has increased day by day.

It is now at level five.

Above her head, two peak level four Blue Frost Bone Dragons were circling. These bone dragons were once powerful hybrid dragons, but after being invaded by Blue Frost, they became Blue Frost Undead.

There was originally a level 5 bone dragon, but it was killed by Yelin and Theresa in order to protect her.

As a series of eerie laughs echoed, dozens of plumes of black smoke descended from the sky and appeared in Black Mountain City.

The thickest plume of black smoke coalesced into a giant with a pig's face.

It was the Duke of Blood Lake, a demon from hell who lingered in the human world, forgetting all about home.

On either side of the Duke of Blood Lake, Earl Salin and a group of powerful figures followed behind.

Count Salin was extremely depressed. His wife, "Lady Boredom," had vanished without a trace after being summoned to the mortal realm by that damned death wizard. Even the demonic mark he left behind was no longer effective; it must have been erased by that person using a special secret method.

He had searched for so long in the human world but had not found it, and had completely given up.

"Who are you, servants of some demon lord? Why have you come uninvited?"

"Noble Daughter of Blue Frost... It doesn't matter whose followers we are. Blue Frost and Hell are one family. Once, the Lord of Blue Frost left Hell and established the Blue Frost Plane. Now, with the resurgence of the demonic tide, it is probably difficult to fight against the gods by relying solely on the power of Blue Frost."

We've come here to seek cooperation. Your beloved Bone Dragon died at the hands of the Holy Light Church. Don't you want to avenge him?

As far as I know, a level six Blue Frost Bone Dragon should be sealed in the Heavenly Mountain of the Holy Radiance Church... In its previous life, it was a fully-formed sub-dragon, the Comet Dragon.

If we join forces, the saints of the Earth Church and the Holy Light Church should be no match for us.

When the time comes, you will break through Heaven Mountain, release the Comet Bone Dragon, and with your level six combat power, who in this world will be your match?

"Let alone the human world, even in the wizarding world, level six is ​​considered high-end combat power," the Duke of Blood Lake said in a seductive tone reminiscent of a demon from hell.

"Why should you help me? My father said that devils are a bunch of cunning and treacherous creatures!" Celie said coldly.

"Because the Church is our common enemy. You want to avenge your father and destroy the Church of Holy Light, and I also want this Church to disappear from the world so that we devils can be even more unrestrained," Duke Blood Lake said without any hesitation.

Xili pondered for a moment, then said, "Okay, but I need some time to prepare. I will give you an answer within ten years."

Duke Blood Lake clapped and laughed, "May our cooperation be fruitful, and may the Church of Holy Light... cease to exist in ten years!"

After saying this, Duke Blood Lake transformed into a wisp of black smoke, leading a group of demon lords, soaring into the sky and disappearing from sight.

……

The month of winter.

Tuva Empire.

Above the storm-stricken mountain.

Within the thunderclouds, the majestic figure of Saint Grado materialized.

His strength has increased significantly compared to before.

The path of the sage can be divided into three realms.

Below the sixth level, one is a saint.

Levels six, seven, and eight are divine servants.

As for the ninth level, that is the angel, who is qualified to be guided by the gods to the astral plane and obtain eternal life in their divine kingdom!

While Groudon is still a bit short of being a God Servant, his strength, compared to a Wizard, is equivalent to reaching the fifth ring of perfection.

Moreover, he also possesses two great sealed sacred artifacts: the Twelve Thunder Drums and the Storm Spear!

Since the statue of the Storm Emperor was stolen, Groudon has been seeking the Storm Emperor's divine guidance.

He has now received instructions and knows roughly where the wizard is hiding.

"You've offended the Emperor, and you think you can escape? Today, you're doomed!"

Behind Grado, the thunder drum spun, and then he transformed into a bolt of lightning, shooting into the sky and disappearing without a trace. His speed was terrifying!

……

The year 1156 passed amidst the turmoil of the world.

In the year 1157 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Primordial Moon descended.

On the first day of the new year, Andrew successfully became a full-fledged wizard, thus embarking on his wizarding journey.

This speed is truly befitting of the Child of the Elements. After becoming a formal wizard, with the increase in his methods, Andrew's research abilities also continued to improve.

Inside the temple, more and more knights are mastering the talent mark and becoming junior apprentice knights.

The standards for intermediate and advanced apprentice knights have gradually become clearer.

After countless tests by Dinos and Andrew.

They discovered that with each additional talent mark, the knight's strength would increase significantly.

Unlike wizarding apprentices who use magic tricks, the use of talent does not require spells, spell materials, or spell-casting actions.

It only requires the use of bloodline seeds and blood energy to activate, essentially similar to the magical abilities of extraordinary beings.

In addition, the knights' physical abilities far surpass those of wizards of the same level, which means that with each talent mark they master, the knight's strength will increase significantly.

Therefore, the standard for a junior trainee is a zero-level talent mark, and each additional mark grants a minor promotion.

A high-level apprentice knight can master three talent marks. Combined with knightly combat skills, their combat power is already not much inferior to that of a high-level wizard apprentice.

Those apprentice knights who mastered perfect breathing techniques were already on par with wizard apprentices in strength, and those with excellent combat skills even surpassed wizard apprentices.

Combat skills and talent imprints complement each other. Therefore, in order to further enhance the strength of knights, the Temple established a special [Combat Skills Research Committee].

Led by the official members, they created new combat techniques that transcend the traditional four levels of "basic, excellent, perfect, and legendary"!

The month of budding.

Li Wei, the hands-off manager, finally broke through his barrier. After day and night of dedicated research, his fifth talent has taken shape.

Mastering a second fourth-ring talent means that he has officially entered the realm of a fourth-ring senior wizard.

He referred to this fourth-ring talent as:

The wind dragon is swift!
