Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 431 Conversation with Roger! Target: Rainbow Sea! (Long chapter, please vote and subscribe!)

The Bronze Realm.

Within the territory stands a towering metal mountain range, reaching a height of 100,000 meters, gleaming with the luster of platinum.

This is "Roger Hill," one of the wonders left behind by Roger himself. It is also said to be a treasure.

However, no one has ever taken it away, from ancient times to the present.

At the foot of the mountain, Roger's Feast, held once every thousand years, is taking place.

The banquet venue was now enveloped by an unbreakable elemental soul-level magic array.

Only those who are invited and present proof are eligible to enter.

The banquet will last for three days.

On the first day, the organizers, Platinum Tower, hosted a banquet. Everyone simply drank and chatted.

The second day is free time for socializing and exchanging cultivation experiences. There's also the incredibly exciting "Roger Tournament," where participants test their spells and skills.

On the third day, there will be free trade, along with large auctions where valuable items will be sold.

The Phantom 60 spaceship slowly hovered in the air.

The banquet team from the Central Plains has arrived.

"Oh ho ho, delicious! I, Gandalf, have arrived!"

The moment the social butterfly arrived, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Because of their combined achievements over the years, coupled with the influence of the Ancient Tower Rankings and the Wizarding Rankings, Victor, Gandalf, and the Dragon Master are known by some as the "Three Heroes of Gondor."

The arrival of all three heroes, especially Victor, made the staff of the Platinum Tower, the organizers, feel a little proud.

"Gandalf, the light of the rogue, Ace the dragon, Victor the sword of dawn... Tsk tsk tsk, this Roger's Feast truly lives up to its reputation as a rare gathering of wizards in the wizarding world; all three of them are here."

"Isn't that right? I have a nephew who keeps begging me to go to Victor's place, hoping I can pull some strings to get him into the Tower of Dawn. Sigh, he doesn't know that even among sixth-circle wizards, there are different levels. How could Victor possibly give me face?"

"Yours is alright. I have a cousin who is only at the second level of cultivation, but she is obsessed with Master Fire Dragon. In order to get closer to him, she went to Fire Dragon's shop to buy things."

"You're nothing compared to my great-grandmother, who's nearing the end of her life. Knowing she has no hope of breaking through, she's been following Gandalf's news intensively every day, saying she wants to pursue true love..."

"Those who can reach the Yuanhun level are all extraordinary people, but those like them are freaks."

"Ha! Temporary glory proves nothing. Throughout history, across multiple planes, figures like the Three Heroes of Gondor are as numerous as fish crossing a river. But how many have had the last laugh, achieving the status of a great wizard, a legend?"

Among familiar wizards, they communicated privately via telepathy, gossiping and discussing.

It's only natural for people to feel admiration and praise, as well as pessimism and disdain.

Gandalf glanced at it.

Among those present were many familiar faces, many of whom were top geniuses of the Dark Tower at the time.

For example, the Snow Lotus Witch sitting at the table in the Endless Sea is now a senior wizard of the sixth ring.

She noticed Gandalf's gaze and smiled politely.

At the same table was a handsome and dashing young man in a white robe, also a veteran of the Sixth Ring Road.

A bald, burly body-refining wizard, he is the [Extreme Fist Overlord Wizard], a genius of the Sea Abyss Alliance who is one generation ahead of the [Sea Nobles], and has now reached the sixth ring of perfect cultivation.

There was also a golden-robed, beautiful, blonde witch with a stunning figure and a face of unparalleled beauty. She was probably a genius of the Letney family and a senior sixth-circle cultivator. Her name seemed to be "Lightning Sister Kalpana".

Gandalf thought to himself.

"If the Electric Eel Wizard hadn't died, he would have been close to reaching the sixth ring by now."

There were many other geniuses from other schools of thought, but Gandalf wasn't very familiar with them. Quite a few seventh-ring wizards were also invited, but their numbers were small. Most of these powerful figures held high-ranking positions in top wizarding organizations or councils, rarely venturing out. Those who came were mostly free spirits.

A pink spaceship arrives.

Triss, Levi, and Aonia arrived at the banquet and sat at the table by the Endless Sea.

Over the years, Li Wei has gradually made a name for himself in the wizarding world, especially after the Ancient Dragon Continent became a pilot area for experiments. As a result, quite a few people have come to know him.

"The Lord of Twilight Temple has arrived. This one is even more important. He has managed to develop the once-declining path of the Knight to the sixth level and quietly established the Twilight Temple. The Supreme Council is paying close attention to him."

"What? Knights can already reach level six? Isn't the strongest only level one? Did I go into too much seclusion and fall behind the times?"

"You don't know yet? The Ancient Dragon Continent is now a designated experimental base for cultivating knight talents by the council, it's even officially designated... Oh, and it's also a pilot base for mechanics and an incubation base for Qi cultivators. Isn't that amazing? The small Ancient Dragon Continent has three completely different paths to transcendence, and they're all quite well-established."

"Hiss, this young man is terrifying. My impression of knights is still that of guards for low-level wizards."

"Moreover, this Li Wei, though he seems to rarely appear in public, is actually quite close to some top geniuses, such as Gandalf, Ace, Victor, and Alyssandra... These young talents of Middle-earth all have good relationships with him. He's also a favorite of Triss."

Some old-fashioned people who often secluded themselves couldn't help but look at Li Wei.

This person, dressed in black armor, carrying a greatsword, with a resolute face, certainly possessed the air of a knight.

But in fact, judging from the fluctuations in his spiritual power, this person's wizarding cultivation is also at the sixth level of perfection. It's infuriating to compare yourself to others.

In the center of the banquet.

A seventh-circle wizard from the Platinum Tower clapped his hands and laughed:

"My name is Fowles, the deputy tower master of the Platinum Tower. Welcome to Roger's banquet. It's a rare occasion for us all to get together. Please enjoy the food and drinks and have a friendly chat. There is an eighth-ring wizard here, so I hope nothing unpleasant will happen."

Looking around, Li Wei saw that there were over a hundred Yuanhun Wizards present.

He was initially worried that the Council of All Races would take this opportunity to cause trouble.

At present, the probability is not high.

Unless they send a large army, it's a free win.

Moreover, this grand feast may have been a bait deliberately set by the Wizarding Council to catch big fish, and it's impossible that no powerful figures were secretly watching.

During the meal.

One by one, the Yuanhun Wizards took this opportunity to get to know and interact with the other guests.

Everyone held their wine glasses and gracefully went to offer a toast.

The most popular "spots," besides the seats occupied by the veteran seventh-ring wizards, are the seats occupied by the "Three Heroes of Gondor" and Livy.

Li Wei also got to know everyone in a friendly manner, taking this opportunity to expand his interpersonal relationships.

In general, those who are able to attend such a banquet are all of very high quality.

There were no unpleasant incidents like those in some novels, such as people not liking each other, arguing, or fighting over a lover.

Everyone here is a noble Yuanhun Wizard; with so many people present, it's unlikely.

After the banquet.

It was unclear which elemental spirit wizard suddenly made the suggestion.

"Senior Fowles, I've heard that if one can reach the summit of Mount Roger, the fortunate one might obtain [Roger's Treasure]. Is that true?"

Upon hearing this, Fowles burst into laughter:

"It's true. If you're interested, why don't we give it a try?"

This isn't exactly a secret.

According to Roger's will, no official organization, including his legacy Platinum Tower, is allowed to fence off Roger Mountain, charge admission fees, or claim it as their own; instead, it should be considered the common treasure of the wizarding world. He was powerful and also a fascinating individual, leaving behind some unexpected "treasures" within Roger Mountain.

Of course, these "treasures" are not something you can obtain easily.

Mount Roger itself contains powerful primordial magnetic energy, so powerful that it can interfere with the actions of primordial spirit wizards, rendering even void travel impossible. Therefore, only those with great perseverance, strength, and luck have a chance to obtain it.

Generally speaking, a seventh-ring wizard can reach the pinnacle relatively easily.

For a sixth-ring wizard, it's not necessarily true.

Li Wei had also heard about these things.

Now that he has enough strength, he wants to take this opportunity to try his luck at "Roger Mountain".

At the foot of the mountain, hundreds of Yuanhun Wizards floated in the void.

Triss said:

"I'm not going. I went after I broke through the seventh ring. Li Wei, you go. You should have a chance to reach the top. Aynea, you can try too... Well, participation is what matters."

Aeneas:

"..."

What a mother! She doesn't have any faith in her own son... But to be fair, he really has no hope.

The other seventh-ring wizards did not participate, which means they have all already reached the top.

Fowles laughed:

"Since everyone has come from afar to attend this banquet, our Platinum Tower cannot be stingy. How about this, we'll add some fun: the first-place winner will receive 3 million Tai Shi from the Platinum Tower itself, the second-place winner will receive 2 million, and the third-place winner will receive 1 million. The rewards are nothing, just a small token of our appreciation, please don't take offense."

Gandalf laughed heartily:

"With such grandeur in the Platinum Tower, I believe it won't be long before the Metallurgical School rises again, giving birth to legendary powerhouses!"

The others also received some pleasant surprises.

"The platinum tower is magnificent!"

"I got first place."

At a command, a hundred Yuanhun Wizards began to fly upwards.

If you're not strong enough, this is the only way to climb Roger Mountain.

Otherwise, if you fly directly to an altitude of 100,000 meters, you will be pulled by a sudden magnetic force when you get close to the mountain, and you will be thrown down at super high speed. The force field will be smashed, and you will inevitably suffer serious injuries.

Among the hundreds of beams of light, a few stood out.

Viktor's figure and the secret sword merged into one, transforming into a golden light, far ahead of the others!

The Holy Infant stepped on the [Extreme Fire Light Wheel] and transformed into flames as it rushed out.

Gandalf, on the other hand, was burning with black divine light and was quite fast.

Li Wei was surrounded by crackling lightning and surging air currents as he leisurely followed behind his three-dimensional body.

"This magnetic force is incredibly strong. It feels like I'm flying with a mountain on my back. However, if I activate my [Magnetic Domain] and change the direction of the magnetic force around me, I can easily win the championship. But there's no need. I'll let Viktor have it and let him save up to buy a breakthrough potion. I can't be too high-profile either, considering there are so many people around."

One hundred Yuanhun Wizards, like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displayed their unique abilities, creating a terrifying spectacle. Many wizards even activated their Wizard Forms and became serious.

Triss murmured to herself.

"That Levi guy is too relaxed... looks like he's going to let Viktor take first place."

Based on her understanding of Li Wei, she believed he would aim to keep his ranking in the top three.

The higher you go, the stronger the magnetic force becomes.

Halfway up the mountain, Ania's forehead was covered in sweat, and she was clearly struggling to keep going.

His veins bulged as he pushed himself beyond his limits, advancing another kilometer before finally stopping.

If I continue to push myself, I'm afraid I'll get seriously injured.

"Sigh, if I were to advance to the sixth-ring senior level, I could probably go a little further. Now it's up to Li Wei to show his skills."

The mountainside is a critical point where at least two-thirds of the Yuanhun Wizards were eliminated.

"Sigh, it really didn't work out."

"Yeah, it feels like my veins are about to be ripped out."

"More than that, even the primordial spirit is being sucked out by the primordial magnetic force."

"I heard that this [Roger Mountain] is itself a level ten treasure. Roger once used this mountain to kill several level ten alien powerhouses. Now it seems that it truly lives up to its reputation."

"Who do you think will win the championship among the remaining players?"

"Is there even a need to guess? It's definitely Victor. He's a perfect sixth-ring cultivator and a top-tier genius. Apart from seventh-ring cultivators, no one can match him."

"I feel that the Twilight Temple Lord seems quite relaxed, perhaps gathering his strength for a final sprint. The knight's powerful physique might be of some help."

When they were about two-thirds of the way through, top geniuses with six rings of experience, such as the Child of Hurricane and the Snow Lotus Witch, had no choice but to retreat. Alyssandra and Ashe also got off.

The Snow Lotus Witch gazed with her beautiful eyes at the burly, black-armored swordsman's back.

"He's getting stronger and stronger. He's definitely not an ordinary person, to the point that Ms. Triss has moved to the Ancient Dragon Continent to live."

The son of the hurricane looked resentful.

"Alas, my cultivation is in no way inferior to Fire Dragon Ace, but his wheel-shaped top-grade witch artifact can help him neutralize a lot of the elemental magnetic force."

After flying for a while longer, the Holy Infant and Gandalf also felt somewhat exhausted.

At this point, there were fewer than twenty Yuanhun Wizards still climbing.

Basically, they are all at the sixth level of perfect cultivation.

The Holy Infant activated the Purple Extreme Holy Dragon Witch Form, rode the dragon and charged forward for a while before stopping, finally climbing four-fifths of the way. His strength mainly lay in his witchcraft artifacts; killing was no problem for him, but in this kind of situation, it wasn't of much help.

"It seems that only by completing all six rings can we hope to reach the summit."

Gandalf summoned the white elephant, and man and elephant became one. Eventually, when they were five-sixths of the way through, they stopped.

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the champion and runner-up will be Viktor and the real Viktor."

Beside Gandalf, the Fist of the Witch stared at him in disbelief.

"He's only at the advanced level of the sixth ring, which is almost the same as my level of perfect sixth ring cultivation. Moreover, he didn't even use any magical artifacts... We're both body cultivators, but I'm not as good as Gandalf. I need to go into seclusion as soon as I get back."

He wasn't particularly jealous of this.

In his early years, he was a rogue wizard who fought his way up to join the Alliance of the Deep Sea, and he had a good impression of Gandalf, the "Light of the Rogue Wizards".

Six-sevenths of an hour.

On the field, only ten sixth-ring wizards remained, all of whom were at the peak of their cultivation and had been advancing for a long time, with their mental strength almost reaching its limit.

Viktor was also starting to struggle, and Levi, who was ranked ninth, could feel it.

Suddenly, a sixth-ring perfected Yuanhun Wizard summoned a compass-shaped treasure.

"Hahaha, this first place is mine!"

This compass treasure emitted strands of magnetic energy, which canceled out Roger Mountain's.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he suddenly accelerated and quickly overtook one opponent after another.

He overtook Viktor amidst the stunned gazes of the audience below.

"This is the wizard Labid. It is said that he possesses a rare level-six magnetic treasure, which he keeps hidden."

"Damn it, I just bet on Victor to win, and now it looks like it's going to be a disaster."

Aynya's expression also changed slightly. He thought Victor was in the bag, but unexpectedly, a dark horse emerged.

Triss thought to herself: Levi must be getting anxious now.

as predicted.

It looks like the 3 million yuan prize is about to disappear.

Li Wei stopped pretending. The golden gravity around him shone brightly, and the Magnetic Domain was activated!

boom!

Amidst everyone's astonished gazes.

An unimaginable golden light shot up like a rocket!

One after another!

Rabid Wizard was now less than a kilometer from the finish line. He was overjoyed, but the next moment, his smile froze.

A streak of golden light flashed past him, leaving him with a silhouette carrying a greatsword on his back.

"It's him? How is that possible? How did he catch up? That's... the Magnetic Domain! He actually mastered such an unorthodox method? My 3 million!"

peak.

Levi gazed calmly at the second-ranked wizard, Rabid.

The wizard Rabid was covered in sweat and said with a wry smile:

"Impressive, truly impressive. You must be the Golden Overlord?"

Li Wei smiled slightly.

"It's just a worthless reputation; you're quite impressive yourself."

As they talked, Viktor finished third.

Li Wei was secretly delighted; he and Victor had jointly acquired 4 million kilos.

below.

Ania breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, I knew it, how could Li Wei be so slow?"

Triss smiled.

She discovered that she still understood Li Wei quite well.

When Fowles reached the summit, he presented the reward as agreed.

"Lord Li Wei, you are truly a man of great talent."

He also thought Viktor was a sure winner, but unexpectedly a dark horse emerged.

I thought the dark horse had won, but it turns out Li Wei was the biggest dark horse.

Li Wei smiled and thanked him.

"Thank you for your generosity, senior."

Follsway:

"There are seven people who have reached the top. Go and see the statue! Good luck to you all."

Only those who witness it for the first time have a chance to obtain Roger's treasure.

peak.

Li Wei arrived in front of the statue.

Roger was a middle-aged wizard with a thick beard and a somewhat unconventional demeanor. He leaned on a longsword and looked up at the sky.

He murmured to himself.

"Junior Li Wei greets Senior!"

Suddenly.

He felt a moment of disorientation.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a boundless deep space.

The colorful light formed ripples that spread out like a vast ocean, with stars floating within them like a lone boat.

On a small boat, a sorcerer wearing a golden cloak and silver armor looked at Levi.

His eyes were as deep as the stars and the sea, his face was resolute, and he had an innate domineering aura that made people want to bow down to him.

"Congratulations on becoming a newcomer to the Infinite Soul Technique..."

Without a doubt, this is Roger.

Li Wei was startled.

Could it be that he is the destined one, and has a chance to obtain some treasure?

That's right. This Infinite Soul Technique was created by Roger, who also condensed an infinite soul.

This should be a projection of power that Roger set up in this place beforehand, and it can only be triggered if certain conditions are met.

And perhaps one of the conditions is the ability to condense infinite primordial spirits.

"Hello, senior."

He spoke with this powerful figure across countless ages.

Roger said:

"Before you, not counting me, only two people have mastered this method."

Li Wei asked:

"Who are the other two?"

Roger laughed:

"One of them is the Blue Sage... As for the other one, let's not mention him."

Li Wei showed a look of regret.

"It's a pity that the Blue Sage has fallen."

Roger shook his head.

"Child, legends don't fall so easily. They may simply be reborn in some way. You don't need to be sad."

Li Wei asked:

"And what about you now, senior?"

Roger said:

"Me? I am indeed dead. Before I became Roger, I was the [Magnetic Storm Emperor Sals]. Roger was my second incarnation. Now I am at most a wisp of spirit within this Roger Mountain, hahaha."

Li Wei was startled.

The Magnetic Storm Emperor was a legendary wizard from an era even earlier than Roger!

he asked:

"Senior, are you saying that legendary wizards have mastered the method of reincarnation?"

Since the phoenix can be immortal and reincarnate indefinitely, a legendary wizard might also be able to achieve the same.

Roger said:

"The True Explanation of Soren's Wizardry, this legendary forbidden technique, gives legendary wizards a second chance to prove the truth. But if there are no other opportunities, there are only two chances, which is 20,000 years... Of course, the timing of this second reincarnation is something that legendary wizards can choose for themselves. It can be 10,000 years later, or 100,000 years later, or 300,000 years later."

Li Wei was deeply shocked.

It has to be Sauron! He's awesome!

Roger said:

"Sauron once said that 300 millennia after the establishment of the Wizarding Council, there will be a change in the wizarding world that is unprecedented in tens of millions of years."

My child, the era you live in will be a crucial moment for the wizarding world; survival and destruction will be decided in this era!

Throughout the history of the wizarding world, many extraordinary legends have emerged, and some of them, following Sauron's guidance, may be reincarnated in this great era.

Next, you will witness an incredibly powerful wizarding world. You will be a participant in this era, and perhaps even its leader... Without a doubt, you are Sauron's destined one.

In his words, you and he are the only two...outsiders in this multiverse.

Do you understand?

Li Wei's heart was filled with turmoil.

He had previously made a preliminary determination that Sauron was a time traveler.

Now it seems that this was indeed the case.

He and Sauron were not born from any one of the multiple dimensions.

They come from another universe, but share the same homeland... Earth.

After calming down, Li Wei asked:

"Senior, why don't you save your second chance for reincarnation in this golden age? Perhaps you can reach level eleven in this era."

Roger sat down.

He made no attempt to hide his envy, saying:

"I wish I could... But the era I lived in was the time when the wizarding civilization faced its greatest crisis. There was the threat of blood war, many federal wars of independence, and the rise of the Amethyst Saint. If we didn't hurry to reincarnate and become legends, the great ship of the wizarding civilization might sink."

Li Wei felt a surge of profound respect. Roger's courage and spirit were beyond the reach of ordinary people.

He said:

"In this era, the wizarding civilization already has more than a dozen legends, and the Grand Council Speaker Amon is one of the strongest among them. We are stronger than ever before, so you can rest assured, senior."

Roger laughed:

"I am very relieved. I have met the Blue Sage, and I can feel his ambition and his concern for the wizarding civilization."

A civilization is bound to be imperfect; you may encounter much darkness, imperfection, and decay within it.

However, in this diverse universe, every tiny individual is inseparable from civilization.

I once thought that as long as I was strong enough, I could conquer the world and dominate all ages.

During Roger's era, at my strongest, I was closer to level eleven than all my predecessors except for Sauron.

It wasn't until I saw a higher view that I realized I was wrong.

The multiverse is a sea, and civilization is a boat on it. Without sailors, a ship cannot set sail.

Nora is our ship, and every living being on it is a sailor.

Li Wei nodded.

"I understand now. Meeting you today has cleared up many of my doubts."

Roger laughed:

"Haha, you're welcome. Who would have thought that two outsiders would be the ones to save Nora?"

Li Wei asked:

"Senior, what is Sauron's current condition?"

Roger shook his head.

"I really don't know. I'm still far from reaching the level of the Ancestor of Wizards. Only he has the influence to make those old immortals in the Underworld grant us legendary wizards a second life. You can find the answer yourself when you advance to the legendary level."

Li Weidao:

"I understand. Is there anything else you need, senior?"

Roger said:

"Can you see this colorful sea beneath me?"

Li Wei nodded.

Roger said:

"This is a wondrous place I encountered when I traveled beyond the transdimensional planes. I call it the Rainbow Sea. There, I saw a legendary artifact of the metal element being conceived, which I named the Twilight Spear. Before I left, I used legendary magic to conceal the Twilight Spear from the Rainbow Sea. According to my estimation, it may have taken shape in your era. If you have the opportunity, you can go and retrieve it. However, remember, it's best to refine legendary artifacts at the Great Wizard level. By then, you should have already understood the path you will take in the future."

Li Wei let out a breath. He had absorbed so much shocking information from his conversation with Roger today.

"Senior, I will try my best to retrieve it, but going out into other dimensions is still a very distant prospect for me."

Roger said:

"No rush, I'm all set..."

"Alas, death truly means the end of everything."

With a sigh, he boarded a lone boat and disappeared into the rainbow sea.

It felt like a dream, and I was still moved when I woke up.

Li Wei opened his eyes and found Victor standing beside him.

Both Fowles and the wizard Rabid looked at Levi with envy.

"Lord Li Wei, congratulations! You've acquired Roger's treasure."

Li Wei laughed and said:

Thank you.

He sensed that Viktor had not gained anything.

Among the others, there seems to be one lucky person who gained something.

But Livy believed that their treasure was incomparable to his own.

Because it is the location and information of a legendary artifact.

"I can pick it up after I reach the Ninth Ring Road. Going too early won't do any good, as the journey is too dangerous and accidents could happen."

During the dinner.

Li Wei has become the new focus of attention, with people coming to congratulate him from time to time, though it's unclear whether they are sincere or not.

In any case, the first day passed peacefully without any trouble or disturbances from the Council of All Races.

The next day.

Roger's duel began early.

Li Wei wasn't very interested in this; the first prize was just a high-quality sixth-ring witch artifact.

There are quite a few rules for the martial arts competition. For example, only magic can be used, and no magical artifacts or treasures can be used.

Neither he nor his three-part clone had any interest in participating.

They were equipped with top-grade magical artifacts, so naturally they looked down on them.

However, other wizards were still very interested, and Ania also participated, but she didn't get a ranking.

There was no other way; everyone who came was a genius, and many of them had higher cultivation levels than him.

In response, Triss comforted her son again, saying:

"It's okay, participation is the most important thing, nothing else matters."

For Li Wei, the greatest gain from this trip was his conversation with Roger.

Day three.

The auction began as scheduled.

Including the reward he just received, Li Wei now has 15 billion Tai Shi.

There are quite a few of the three clones, and together they can easily reach 30 billion.

If all else fails, Li Wei can borrow from Triss.

In general, he is confident that he can buy whatever he needs.

Most of the sixth-ring wizards, and even seventh-ring wizards, present here are probably not as wealthy as I am.

"I wonder if there's a breakthrough potion..."

Actually, Triss obtained the breakthrough potion recipe from Levi after much pleading and spending 1 million gold coins. The recipe was called "The Roar of the Flame Demon," a popular potion recipe that required persecuting demons and could increase the success rate of breakthroughs by 16%.

In response, Li Wei asked Triss why all her potions were related to demons.

She said it was because the Black Abyss Walker taught her a series of demonic potions.

And these demonic potions of the Black Abyss Walker were given to him by his teacher, the Deep Blue Sage…

In short, this group of master and disciples is determined to fight the demon to the very end.

The core ingredient of the "Flame Demon Potion" is the fresh heart and crystal core of a level seven Flame Demon.

One Flame Demon Heart and one Crystal Core are only enough to refine one potion.

Then there are rare plants like dragon fruit and dragon herb powder.

The dragon fruit, Li Wei has, is just waiting for it to flower and bear fruit; the dragon herb powder, Triss still has some left.

It can be said that Triss is only seven levels away from crafting the Flame Demon.

Therefore, it's best to obtain the Seventh Ring Breakthrough Potion through auctions, as it allows you to get it in advance and be prepared.

If not, then wait until the bloody battle begins and then find an opportunity to hunt down the Flame Demon.

With his strength, he could easily kill a level 7 early-stage Flame Demon Lord.

After the auction began.

One by one, treasures began to be auctioned off, including high-quality sixth-ring witchcraft artifacts and seventh-ring herbs; there were indeed quite a few good items.

Ace's goal was crafting materials and blueprints; Gandalf's was herbs and recipes; and Victor was in charge of auctioning off elemental spells—a clear division of labor. If there were items they couldn't acquire, Levi would then step in and take them.

Thus, halfway through the auction, the three heroes of Gondor had acquired several elemental metals, a few excellent elemental spirit spells, and a fragmented seventh-ring alchemist's legacy. Among these was another breakthrough potion recipe called "Umon's Potion," a potion that could aid in breaking through to the seventh ring. However, it was only a sixth-ring potion recipe, so its success rate was far lower than Triss's "Fire Demon Potion," only 7%, completely different in level. The advantage, however, was that it didn't require a higher-level wizard to craft it. As for magical artifacts, not a single one was auctioned. Furthermore, the Holy Infant took the opportunity to bid on a high-quality sixth-ring artifact, earning 1.3 million.

"Next up for auction is the breakthrough potion, [Flower Fairy's Blessing Water], which can increase the success rate of breaking through to the seventh ring by 15%. It is definitely the best breakthrough potion. The starting price is 3 million Tai Shi, and each bid must be increased by at least 1000 million."

Li Wei's eyes lit up.

"Not bad, it's no worse than the Flame Demon Potion. If the price isn't too outrageous, I'll buy it, just in case."

He couldn't pin all his hopes on the future bloodbath, and Triss's dragon grass powder was only enough for two people.

The Demon Dragon Grass is a plant that needs to be used whole for medicinal purposes, and it cannot be transplanted, so it is not easy to obtain.

Li Wei alone needs at least four promotion potions.

In fact, Baihua has not yet made a breakthrough in its medicine.

However, given her abilities, she should be able to get it herself.

Therefore, the more breakthrough drugs, the better.

soon.

The price of this drug has exceeded 5 million and continues to rise.

There's no way around it; many of the wizards present are there specifically for this purpose.

Many people have to sell their belongings and save every penny to buy medicine.

In the end, Li Wei made the final decision.

"11 million!"

He had barely spent any money and had been waiting for this moment.

really.

As soon as the 11 billion figure was announced, everyone's attention turned to the private room where Li Wei was.

The private room could be isolated from detection, but they estimated that among those present, besides the seventh-ring wizards, only Master Fire Dragon could afford this price. The seventh-ring wizards present, aside from buying it for their juniors, didn't need the item and naturally wouldn't waste their money.

Therefore, ninety percent of them are fire dragon wizards!

I successfully obtained the "Flower Fairy's Blessing Water".

The price was the loss of 11 billion, which was heartbreaking for Li Wei.

In fact, most ordinary sixth-ring perfected wizards spend hundreds of millions to buy sixth-ring level breakthrough potions, such as the "Umon Potion," a lower-success-rate potion, hoping for a lucky break. Li Wei's extravagance is truly rare.

Next, the auction continued, and another extraordinary treasure that automatically protects its owner, named the "Silent Guardian," fetched a sky-high price of 5 million.

Therefore, it is clear how cheap the Golden Apple Armor is at only 2 million ghost coins.

Li Wei and his three clones were already equipped with saturated defense, sufficient to handle attacks from the seventh ring, so they did not participate in the bidding.

Triss, Ania, Alysandre, and other companions also gained something.

Everyone present suffered a severe financial loss.

The Platinum Tower made a profit from the auction fees it charged.

Roger's banquet ended smoothly, without any surprises or setbacks.

Before leaving, Fowles invited Victor to give a lecture at the Platinum Tower, where he would share the secrets to making the Secret Sword faster, farther, and stronger.

The lecture fee offered was quite high, and Viktor couldn't refuse such a kind offer, so he agreed to go again after the Seventh Ring Road.

The Phantom 60 spaceship broke through the sky and returned to Middle-earth.

Triss's spaceship followed behind.

Li Wei was among them, closing his eyes and regulating his breathing.

"So smoothly? Has the Council of All Races really let this opportunity slip by?"

His current sense of danger lacks any warning signs.

Before coming here, I hadn't had any nightmares, and I didn't have any problems with nightmare omens.

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. With so many multi-soul wizards, how dare the enemy make a move?"

……

Middle-earth.

At the portal leading to the Bronze Realm, the Phantom 60 spaceship slowly emerged.

Gandalf joked:

"This went so smoothly, I'm almost not used to it. Ace, you're no longer the most sought-after person among all races."

Holy Infant Path:

"We can't let our guard down until we get back to Gondor. There were octagonal wizards guarding the venue just now, but there aren't any on the road now. So, with multiple spirit wizards and staff, are there really no spies from the Council of All Races? I don't think so."

In the corner, Victor sat with his knees crossed. The Star Sword floated in the air before him, ready to strike at any moment.

High above, in the dark land beyond the crystal wall.

Three figures stood in mid-air.

One of them was a Voidling, exuding the aura of a peak level six. It was none other than Mogus, who had escaped some time ago. It seemed that he had found a new body.

"Gandalf and his party have appeared near the portal. You two, prepare to act. If the assassination fails, I will use my void abilities to ensure your safety."

The other two figures were a man and a woman.

Their skin was a deep red, like exposed muscle.

Both of them had blood-red wings on their backs; the man had six wings and the woman had eight. They were tall and slender with high breasts, and they were naked, standing in the void.

Its overall shape resembles an angel under the throne of a god in legend, only the shape is somewhat strange.

Their faces have no facial features, only holes like those in a mahjong tile; the men have six holes and the women have eight.

This is the Blood Angels clan, whose ancestors are said to have had intricate connections with the gods.

A six-winged person is a level six expert, while an eight-winged person is a level seven expert.

The male blood angel said:

"Lady Cagalli, I'll fire first to draw some of their fire and expose their trump cards. Then you can fire your arrow and try to kill them in one strike. If we kill just one, we'll complete our mission. This spaceship is full of important targets for the organization; they're very valuable."

Cagalli said calmly:

"Get ready."

But then, the wings of the six-winged blood angel shone brightly, and streams of crimson power surged into its face.

Within the six caves, six arrowheads, radiating an aura of destruction and shaped like missiles, slowly emerged.

Cagalli was the same; an even more terrifying aura poured from her wings into the eight holes in front of her, beginning to gather strength.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Six streaks of blood-red light pierced through the crystal wall, appearing in the sky as if teleported, and flew towards Phantom 60 at breakneck speed. Their speed was in no way inferior to the Secret Sword!

boom!

A streak of blood collided with the protective barrier built into the Phantom 60.

The spaceship's protective array was strong enough to withstand a seventh-ring attack, yet it still trembled violently, demonstrating its immense power. This immediately put the banquet team on alert.

Gandalf laughed and scolded:

"Ace, you've got a silver tongue. Get ready, everyone sit tight and prepare for void travel."

Sparks flew as a passage formed in the void in front of the Phantom 60.

boom!

Another bloody explosion!

The shockwave swept through, and the void passage was instantly shattered!

Viktor, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, opened them and said:

"It looks like the enemy is launching a high-altitude attack on us through the crystal barrier. Running away is useless; we have to fight our way back."

Outside the crystal wall above the portal, Li Wei's figure quietly appeared.

He felt something was wrong, so he told Triss to go back first.

After becoming invisible himself, he secretly followed his clones. Through his connection with them, he knew the moment Gandalf and his companions were ambushed, and he guessed that the enemy was launching a long-range attack from outside the crystal barrier.

"Blocking the gate, huh? None of you are going home today."
