Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 447 Unstoppable Force, the Name of the Ultimate Knight! (Long Chapter, Please Subscribe and Vote!)

The continent abandoned by the gods.

A black shadow of the Amethyst Clan emanated a terrifying aura.

With a single punch, the earth cracked, and many demons perished instantly.

There were also the Thousand-Legged Centipede, the Black Flash Demon Dragon, the Giant Whale King, Pride, Wrath, Gluttony, and a host of other Level 6 generals.

These shadows swept across the battlefield, all of them bloodthirsty.

Li Wei's sword energy swept across the land, tearing demons in two wherever it passed, only to be overwhelmed by the swarming Shadow Dragons.

Originally, the demons had the numerical advantage, but in the end, it turned into a situation where Li Wei's side had the numbers against them.

"The Shadow Dragons are too strong; this is a talent born for the battlefield."

Li Wei couldn't help but sigh.

After the seventh ring, the maximum number of Shadow Dragons reached 10,000.

He now needs new shadows to expand his army.

After hundreds of years of refinement and selection.

Those who remain in the team are absolute elites, the best of their class.

The newly added demon shadows vary in quality, but their sheer number still greatly enhances Li Wei's strength.

The level 7 fire demon that was just killed can spawn a new level 6 fire demon shadow after a while.

Currently, Li Wei has about ten level-six shadows, and even the masters of the Shadow School would admit their inferiority.

In fact, the Shadow Dragon talent can only be truly effective in the hands of a monster like Li Wei.

An ordinary wizard would have no way of obtaining so many shadows by killing powerful enemies.

Before long, the battlefield fell silent.

The Shadow Dragons and Leon were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the spoils.

Li Wei collected the corpse of the level seven fire demon.

"This battle has earned at least two or three million battle merits... That's awesome! At this rate, taking first place doesn't seem so difficult."

Li Wei opened the Level 8 Demon Slayer Ranking.

The top-ranked [Thunder of Annihilation] now has 4000 million points.

To accumulate so many points in less than a hundred years is quite impressive.

The two following closely behind are 【Sword of Light】 and 【Hand of Vulcan】, with 3800 million and 3700 million respectively.

Li Wei once felt that catching up with them was an impossible dream.

After all, he was far behind; these geniuses were not ordinary people.

For example, the Thunder of Annihilation was an unparalleled genius of his time.

He is one of the best among the top geniuses. He has only cultivated for 1,500 years and has already reached the seventh level of perfection.

It is said that more than forty witch marks have already been imprinted on it.

If we speculate based on Livy's theory...

If a genius like the Thunder of Annihilation hadn't died young...

It seems that before reaching the ninth ring, one must imprint more than 66 witch marks to advance to the legendary wizard realm!

Roger's words preceded this.

He even suspected that the Lightning of Annihilation was the reincarnation of a legendary wizard.

If that's the case, his goal might be more than just 66 questions.

It could be more than 70, or even like Li Wei, pursuing 81, in order to step into the realm beyond legend.

Now, having begun hunting in the God-Forsaken Continent and tasted the sweetness of the Shadow Dragons.

Li Wei felt that he might be able to challenge for the top spot on the leaderboard.

Although it may seem a bit high-profile, the generous rewards make it worth a try.

Like most of the top ten players on the leaderboard, Harvis employs a team-based combat strategy.

Compared to lone wolf wizards, their hunting efficiency and safety are much higher.

However, teamwork also has its drawbacks.

That is, according to the calculations of the Skynet Heart, all group activities will be distributed according to the team's contribution.

Even if it was Havis, he couldn't have earned all the credit unless he hunted the entire hunt alone.

However, for ordinary lone wolf wizards, their efficiency is actually not as good as that of a group.

With teamwork and clear division of labor, killing ordinary demons is as easy as mowing grass.

Lone wolf wizards, on the other hand, have limited spells and limited endurance.

Without the support of teammates, one needs to be extremely careful, as if walking on thin ice.

One careless move and you could die.

But Li Wei was different!

He is both a lone wolf wizard, capable of fighting alone and taking all the credit, and also able to leverage the advantages of teamwork.

Because he has the Shadow Dragons, a one-man army, the battle achievements of these shadows are all attributed to him.

In addition, his nine talents are from different schools and have extremely comprehensive functions, including killing, defense, survival, and summoning.

He has mastered 31 Yuanhun spells, involving many schools of thought and even astrology, which can be used to predict danger.

He is still a knight, possessing a nearly immortal body and powerful physical attributes from all angles.

Even if an eighth-level demon were to arrive.

Li Wei is now confident that he can escape alive.

The probability of a level nine demon appearing on the God-Forsaken Continent is extremely small!

According to the Black Abyss Walker.

The entire Nora was under intense surveillance by the Wizarding Council using extraordinary methods.

Once demonic energy of level nine or above appears, it can be detected.

Then, use the [Dragonflame God Witch] to launch a "map-wide" attack across the entire territory.

So far, every level nine demon that has attempted to infiltrate the mainland has died under the "Dragon Flame".

As for level ten demons, needless to say, given the situation at the beginning of the Blood War, they wouldn't dare to descend upon Nora at all.

Under Nora's dimensional suppression, facing a legendary wizard could cost you your life.

These powerful abyss lords also value their lives highly.

After all, once you're dead, even if you can be reborn, it's a very long time from now.

They cannot accept having to "level up" again during this period.

In summary.

Li Wei felt that as long as he left himself a way out in everything and didn't act recklessly, he could succeed.

In this God-Forsaken Continent, to some extent, he is equivalent to... invincible.

Next, he will transform into a ruthless demon-hunting machine and compete with those peerless geniuses for the top spot on the leaderboard.

For many people, this is the worst of times.

For Li Wei and his organization, however, it was the best of times.

Through bloody battles, the organization and parliament established close ties and gained their attention.

Li Wei also successfully boarded the ship of a big shot, gaining new "big shots" besides Triss: Black Abyss Walker and Frost Witch.

Since that's the case, there's no need for him to be overly timid.

In this golden age where heroes rise and legends return, the name of the ultimate knight rises in triumph!

After the battlefield was cleaned up, Li Wei gathered up the Shadow Dragons and looked into the distance.

Between heaven and earth, smoke filled the air, and demonic energy raged.

"Let's begin, let me see where my limits are!"

……

Time flies.

Three years later.

Nora in 305, the Battle of 93.

Middle-earth.

The Tower of Dawn.

After nearly two hundred years, Victor finally completed the imprinting of the 15th witch mark and reached the pinnacle of his cultivation.

Even with Viktor's talent and resources, and with his mental strength already at its limit, it still took him this long to obtain 15 witch marks.

The situation with other elemental spirit wizards is self-evident.

Therefore, the probability of someone who can be branded with 45 witch marks being able to advance to the rank of Grand Wizard is certainly not low.

Victor opened his palm, and a vial of potion appeared, radiating a fiery red light—it was the Flame Demon Potion.

This was personally refined by the Venerable One, and it was a success on the first try, using up the last of the Demon Dragon Grass powder.

"This promotion is a do-or-die situation."

Viktor thought to himself that after taking the potion, he immediately began meditating and went into seclusion.

Hearing that Victor had gone into seclusion, the Holy Infant and Gandalf would occasionally turn their attention to the Tower of Dawn.

To prevent anyone from causing trouble while Viktor is in seclusion.

This day.

Fire Dragon Shop.

Having just finished crafting a high-quality sixth-ring wizarding artifact, Aisha took a break, opened a newspaper, and then her expression turned serious.

[Blood War Daily Report: In the past three years, the ranking of Twilight Temple Master and Supreme Knight Li Wei on the Demon Slayer List has climbed to 30th place at an unimaginable speed, currently holding 2600 million points. He has repeatedly saved civilian and official demon-hunting groups from the clutches of demons, averting numerous losses. Therefore, he is hereby awarded the "Order of Soren" and rewarded with 3 million Tai Shi. This is hereby announced!]

Ashe couldn't help but exclaim:

"What?! Twenty million points in three years? That's terrifying!"

Alexandra said:

"What's wrong? Ashe, what are you muttering about over there?"

Ashe handed the newspaper to Alyssa Draco, the red dragon queen, whose beautiful eyes were glazed over.

"Am I seeing things?"

Ash nodded.

"That's right. In three years, he climbed from around 100th to 30th, and is now only 20 million away from the number one spot... At this rate, it won't be long before the number one spot belongs to Twilight Palace Master Li Wei."

Alyssa's chest heaved.

"This Twilight Palace Master seems to be even more powerful than the Grandmaster..."

Although Alyssandra has a better relationship with the Grandmaster, it must be admitted that there is still a significant gap between the three Gondorian generals and the Lord of Twilight Temple.

Most importantly, the master was already a top-tier genius, a prodigy.

They are beings that most Yuanhun wizards, including the two women, can only dream of...

Ash said:

"This is insane! Is this the true power of a Yakuza Rider?"

They showed this good news to Ace.

Ace already knew, but he pretended to be shocked and gasped.

"Lord Li Wei, you are terrifying indeed!"

Then, Ace said with a solemn expression:

"However, his current record is too dazzling. The demons will probably be on guard, and his next operation will inevitably face many obstacles. It will be difficult for him to gain points at such a high speed."

Alexandra said:

"That makes sense. But I think it's only a matter of time before the Extreme Knight takes the top spot. It should be within ten years. He might even become the first seven-ring wizard to exchange for the Moonlit Treasure. I'm so envious."

The Holy Infant found it amusing.

In fact, Li Wei had already refined the Bright Moon artifact.

Moreover, it is the most top-tier among them.

That strange object gave birth to the freak "Victor".

he asked:

"When will you two reach the sixth level of cultivation? Once you have that level, you two can team up and go to the God-Forsaken Continent to hunt demons. Accumulate 500 million battle merits as soon as possible to exchange for Morning Star-level rare items."

Alexandra laughed:

"It's almost there, almost there, we've worked very hard, Master."

Aisha also said:

"We're afraid that if we go there to hunt demons, it will affect the business of the Fire Dragon Shop."

Holy Infant Path:

"You can go without worry."

In recent years, apart from Silverbeard and Iron Teeth.

The Holy Infant recruited two more Yuanhun Wizards: "Copper Ear Krinno" and "Golden Eye Fines".

Copper Ear is a male elven from the Middle-earth, with a cultivation level of six rings.

In addition to wizard crafting, he is also skilled in traditional elven crafting methods.

Golden Eyes is a human, with a perfect sixth-ring cultivation level.

He was born with a special constitution, possessing extraordinary golden eyes.

It is said that he could identify all kinds of metals from a young age and was familiar with their properties.

He is now a master of "metallic materials science" in the metallurgical school, specializing in the research and development of various extraordinary alloy materials.

Based on current observations, Golden Eyes likely possesses alien blood and is not a pure human.

However, he himself did not know what race he was.

Today, Huolong Shop is full of talented people.

Each of the five rings has dozens of weapon makers, and they are the elite among them.

Therefore, Alyssandra and Ashe's demon-hunting trip wouldn't affect the shop's operation.

Ash said:

"After we break through to the sixth ring of perfection, we'll go to the God-Forsaken Continent to hunt demons."

Unlike Silverbeard and his companions, the two women were born with a thirst for battle; crafting weapons was not their sole purpose.

Especially Alexandra, she's a rich woman and has no shortage of money.

After all, her father was a level nine pure-blooded dragon.

Giving her any small amount from her personal savings would be enough to make any Yuanhun Wizard envious.

She stayed here because she was used to life at the Fire Dragon Shop and didn't want to leave.

Moreover, they felt that living in Gondor was...

Surrounded by top geniuses like Ace, Gandalf, and Victor.

Their spiritual practice is more motivated and they feel a greater sense of urgency.

It's easier to improve when you're with outstanding people.

Two years later.

Nora in 307, the Battle of 95.

Alyssandra and Ashe both broke through to the sixth ring of perfection, further enhancing their strength.

The two women bid farewell to Ace and embarked on their journey to the Forsaken Continent.

Inside Gondor.

Gandalf Pharmacy.

The old man in white robes awoke from his seclusion.

He was in high spirits and his face showed joy.

"I have eight million body-refining runes. I only need two million more to break through to the seventh-ring body-refining wizard realm."

This day.

Gandalf and the Holy Infant received a message from the original being, instructing them to travel to the land of the forsaken gods.

After years of hunting, Gandalf and the Holy Infant have accumulated over three million merits, only two million short of five million.

Li Wei's idea was for him, as the big boss, to lead "Gandalf" and "Holy Infant" through a period of time to farm demons.

First, let these two clones gather five million battle merits and then exchange them for Morning Star-level artifacts.

If they encounter a suitable rare item, refining it will also benefit their subsequent cultivation.

If he couldn't use the two clones, Li Wei would refine them without hesitation to enhance his own strength.

Gandalf and the Holy Infant were naturally happy to agree and immediately decided that one of them would stay behind to take care of Victor, who was in seclusion.

The other person went to train with Li Wei.

Ultimately, Gandalf went to the Forsaken Lands first, while the Holy Infant stayed behind.

……

The continent abandoned by the gods.

Li Wei meditated alone in the wilderness.

He has been here, hunting with all his might for five years.

As the Holy Infant had said, after three years of smooth sailing...

In the past two years, his sense of danger and astrological magic have issued multiple warnings.

This made Li Wei's actions even more cautious, and his hunting efficiency was much slower than at the beginning.

However, it still far surpasses those warband leaders.

Li Wei is now ranked 20th on the Level 8 Demon Slayer List.

3100 million points.

Having redeemed the Morning Star artifact, I still have 2600 million battle merits left. I need 7400 million more battle merits to redeem the [Hand of the Winter Emperor]!

Li Wei opened today's bloody battle report.

[Recently, the Thunder Wizarding Corps slew two fourteen-armed serpent demon lords and their demon army who had invaded the Thunder School in the Dark Lands. After this battle, Thunder of Annihilation Havis, with his seven-ring body, defeated an eighth-level demon and currently holds the top spot on the Demon Slayer Ranking with 5600 million points!]

[Breaking news! The Divine Sword Wizarding Corps has destroyed a demon's lair on the Forsaken Continent, slaying an eighth-level Flame Demon Lord and annihilating tens of thousands of elite demon legions of the Burning Expeditionary Force at a relatively low cost, greatly boosting our morale!]

[The Hand of Vulcan single-handedly destroyed a lair guarded by several peak level seven demons, and after a fierce battle with the level eight Blackwing Demon Lord who came to reinforce it, calmly departed.]

【…】

These five years.

Such news stories occur every now and then.

Li Wei sensed that his arrival and meteoric rise had put pressure on these prodigies.

They fought even harder to kill demons in order to maintain their ranking.

As the council's elite battle group, they are basically capable of fighting opponents of higher levels.

With proper tactics, killing an eighth-level demon is not difficult.

Not only is the team strong, but the Thunder of Annihilation and his companions are also seventh-ring perfect wizards, and may even be reincarnations of legendary wizards.

It even has the potential to fight an eighth-level demon alone.

In recent years, the bloody war has intensified, and the geniuses who have been lying dormant in the wizarding world have finally begun to show their claws.

Those who can reach the seventh ring wizard, aren't they all prominent figures of their time?

Overall, this is a good thing.

Li Wei was also very pleased.

If you put pressure on yourself, you can create a positive atmosphere in the wizarding world.

He doesn't mind... putting a little more pressure on them.

"Let's try to break into the top ten before the ancient tower opens."

a few days later.

Gandalf arrives in the land abandoned by God.

Livy, along with Gandalf, began their leveling journey.

……

In the underground cave.

Burning Expeditionary Force Headquarters.

Nova boomed:

"What's going on? It's been so long, and they still haven't gotten rid of that Li Wei! And what about those World-Destroying Lightning and the Divine Sword of Light? These are just small fry. A mere seventh-ring wizard, do I really have to personally take action?"

Below, the demon lords remained silent, trembling with fear.

Nova was furious, but could only rage helplessly.

Given its status and position, it would be impossible for it to take action personally.

In case the aura of a level nine demon is leaked and detected by the Wizard Council.

Once a dragon's flame strikes, it has to return to the abyss and start all over again.

Since the Deep Blue Expeditionary Force entered the God-Forsaken Continent, its military operations have repeatedly failed.

The bloody battle has continued to this day, resulting in the loss of hundreds of demon lords, including many level seven demons.

The most fatal thing is that many of the Gondor Three and the Lord of Twilight Temple, who were his thorns in the side, were killed.

In comparison, the wizards suffered far fewer losses than the demons.

Although this is understandable given the wizard's home advantage.

However, this record still earned Nova a lot of scolding from the Flame Demon Tyrant.

The Abyss is teeming with demons, but their forces are too scattered, a consequence of their chaotic nature.

If all the demon lords of the abyss, especially the lower-level lords, could work together and mobilize.

Even with Sauron's legacy, the wizarding world wouldn't last long.

Even the will of the abyss itself is chaotic and disordered, and cannot be defined by ordinary human thinking.

After calming down a bit.

Nova turned to a gaunt old man beside him, whose head was covered with countless tentacles, resembling an octopus, and whose face was full of wrinkles, and asked:

"Graham, as an eighth-level Mind Flayer, and an expert in demonic divination, can you foresee the whereabouts of those wizarding geniuses?"

Graham was Nova's strategist, responsible for devising plans, and he had been lurking in the wizarding world for a long time.

Relying on his extraordinary wisdom, he mastered a powerful astrology technique that even many Yuanhun wizards had not learned.

However, Graham hesitated, and said tremblingly:

"Lord Nova, the destinies of these wizarding geniuses are shrouded in mystery. They may have practiced anti-astrological techniques, or been given treasures by their elders to conceal their astrological abilities. I am truly powerless to help them… But please don't be angry, my lord. My capable lieutenant, the Mind Flayer Gilmore, is deeply hidden in the wizarding world. Just recently, I learned that Gandalf left Gondor, seemingly heading to the Forsaken. Most importantly, Gandalf is traveling alone, not with Ace the Dragon or the Sword of Dawn. Those two are still in Gondor."

Nova's expression turned cold.

"These damned wizards are too cunning! It's a pity that the Lord of the Fallen Stars didn't participate in this bloody battle; otherwise, with his methods, how could these childish astrological tricks possibly work!"

Ogrian, the Lord of Fallen Stars, is a powerful lord on the 663rd floor of the Abyss.

Its true form is the [Ancient Star Demon].

This is an extremely rare high-ranking demon, highly talented and skilled in divination.

It is said that the ancient star demons and the star realm have countless connections.

The Lord of Fallen Stars possesses what is said to be the most powerful "prophetic ability" across multiple dimensions.

The demons even believed that the wizards' astrology was plagiarized from the "Ancient Star Demons."

Unfortunately, the Lord of the Fallen Stars suffered a severe blow from Sauron a long time ago and was sealed in the 663rd floor.

After a long period of time, the seal has long since dissipated, and this powerful being has regained its freedom.

However, it refused the call to battle and did not come.

Nova looked at these generals.

"Who among you will go and take care of Gandalf? In the wizarding world, killing just one genius is a huge win."

The generals looked at each other, clearly none of them wanted to go.

Killing a wizarding genius is risky.

So over the years, they have avoided geniuses.

Anyway, there are only a few geniuses in the wizarding world. If they wipe out all the ordinary wizards, they won't be able to survive on their own.

"Lord Nova, I'll go."

"A colossal demon, as large as a mountain of flesh, said."

Its name is Boma, and its true form is the Mountain Demon. It possesses immense strength, is indestructible, and its aura resembles that of a mid-stage level seven demon.

Nova Road:

"Alright, take your men and kill Gandalf. If you succeed, I'll reward you with an eighth-level Abyss Core."

Boma was pleasantly surprised.

"Thank you, sir!"

Graham watched Boma leave, silently performed a divination, and muttered to himself.

"Bo Ma's trip is likely to be fraught with danger, and unexpected events may occur."

After thinking about it, it didn't tell Boma about it.

Since there are fools willing to die to get through this crisis, it's a good thing.

……

one year later.

Nora, 309.

A construction site for the Sky Repair Project.

The remains of wizards are scattered throughout this place.

A group of low-level demons are devouring the wizard's corpse.

Clearly, a major battle had taken place here not long ago.

"Die!"

A fist gleaming with light crashed down from the sky!

Rumble!

The earth churned up, and the low-level demons exploded one after another.

Gandalf landed on the ground and looked at the disfigured remains of the wizards.

"Oops, I'm late."

He learned from Soraya that the area had been attacked by a demon army.

Despite rushing as fast as I could, it was still too late.

The wizarding warband stationed here was completely wiped out, their deaths a tragic sight.

"Weakness is the original sin... The mighty wizarding world has never suffered such humiliation."

Gandalf sighed.

He transformed into a savage elephant, his fists relentlessly carrying away the fleeing demons.

With each punch, a demon perished.

"Heh heh heh, Gandalf, you've come after all!"

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four towering black demonic mountains descended from the four corners of the sky!

Gandalf's figure flickered, trying to tear through the void to escape, but it was as if he had grabbed a steel plate.

Void sealing, restriction traversal!

Clearly, the enemy came prepared!

Rumble! A pitch-black demonic figure, towering two thousand meters high and larger than any ordinary mountain, descended with a deafening roar.

"I am Boma, the Demon General of the Mountains, Gandalf! You are doomed!"

Ever since hearing that Gandalf might come to the Forsaken Lands, Poma has tried every means to lure Gandalf out.

Gandalf said coldly:

"Did you kill all these wizards?"

Boma sneered.

"To die at my hands is an honor for these little insects."

Boom! Its enormous body pressed down, incredibly agile!

Gandalf remained calm and unmoved, and said softly:

"Please, Your Majesty, make your move!"

The next moment, from among the white-robed wizards, a black-armored swordsman carrying a long sword and exuding a murderous aura stepped out with dashing style!

"As expected, I still need to use clones to catch big fish."

Li Wei has been largely out of the public eye for the past year.

He possessed Gandalf and disappeared without a trace.

Gandalf, meanwhile, took Livy with him to hunt demons in the land of the forsaken.

Upon seeing the black-armored swordsman, the Mountain Demon General's expression changed.

"You...you are the Lord of Twilight Palace?"

The Lord of Twilight Palace, currently a seventh-ring wizard ranked among the top twenty on the Demon Slayer List.

He is also the only ordinary wizard with a seventh ring among the top twenty.

Apart from that, the weakest are all veteran seventh-ring wizards.

Most of them are perfect with seven rings!

This person's power is evident!

"This is a trap!"

With a wave of his hand, the Mountain Demon General unleashed beams of demonic light from four demonic mountains, hurtling towards Li Wei.

At the same time, it leaped up, trying to escape through the void.

Although it was at the mid-stage of level seven, it showed no fighting spirit whatsoever when facing the Twilight Palace Master.

duang!

The Mountain Demon felt as if he had crashed into a star, and his body was knocked down.

But then, high in the sky, a continuous, silvery mountain range appeared, encircling the entire area.

At the same time, a fierce wind swept across the land, forming a wind barrier that covered an area of ​​more than twenty miles in radius, enveloping the surrounding fields.

Silver Mountain Falls from the Sky + Illusory World of Wind!

Double lockdown!

At this moment, the Mountain Demon was greatly alarmed.

"Damn it, we've been ambushed!"

Rumble!

Li Wei activates the Storm Domain.

Endless gales surged into the silver mountain and the barrier.

Thousands of jet-black lightning bolts darted wildly across the mountainside, shooting out in dense, overwhelming waves.

Soon, the Mountain Demon General was engulfed by the Black Annihilation Divine Lightning.

Within the storm's vortex, one after another, phantom-like air currents roared out.

"Landslide!"

With a roar, the mountain demon shattered the wind and thunder, its massive hand scattering the clouds in the sky as it slammed down towards Li Wei!

Both the Illusionary Realm of Wind and the Falling Silver Mountain are primarily about control, with attack as a secondary objective.

Therefore, the damage inflicted on the thick-skinned mountain demons is limited.

In some ways, this guy is a low-end version of the Amethyst Clan.

Li Wei remained calm and activated the Crimson Emperor Domain, entering the Heavenly Dragon Dao form.

He clenched his right fist, and his body swelled under the power of the Whale King.

The Crimson Emperor, Golden Emperor, and Heavenly King Palace within his body roared incessantly!

He didn't use the Iron Fist Clan's secret techniques; he just wanted to take a look.

How much power can I unleash at my current peak?

boom!

Li Wei’s tiny fist collided with that star-like giant fist!

Two forces clash!

Li Wei's body suddenly trembled.

A tremendous force surged into his body, passing through him and shaking the continent within a radius of tens of miles where he stood.

The mountain demon general before them crashed into the surface of the silver mountain range like a flying demon mountain, and the sound of bones cracking echoed.

It stared in disbelief at its dangling arm, flesh exposed, its black demonic bone already cracked.

"Impossible! I am the Mountain Demon, how could your power possibly surpass mine?"

Li Wei found it funny; he could even send a mid-stage level 7 Amethyst Clan flying.

What are mere mountain demons compared to this?

"Gandalf, go forth! After this battle, you can go home!"

Livy communicates telepathically with Gandalf.

A level 7 mid-game demon, if Gandalf gets an assist, should also be rewarded handsomely.

Gandalf immediately summoned the Demon-Suppressing King.

"Meiwang Dragon Elephant Seal!"

He immediately unleashed the most powerful secret technique of Mingwang Martial Arts.

Other moves are unlikely to be able to harm the Mountain Demon.

Li Wei projected a nine-headed imperial dragon and the emperor's primordial spirit, which joined the battle.

This is not over yet.

Amidst the turbulent winds and clouds, a colossal azure eagle radiating the aura of an early-stage seventh-level being appeared out of nowhere—the Spirit of Maiah!

The eagle's cry pierced through the clouds and split rocks, its wings flapping, stirring up a storm and blades of energy that swept away!

At the same time, two giant dragon-shaped fire spirits, breathing blazing dragon breath, joined the attack.

In the blink of an eye, Li Wei activated the Nightmare Domain, and a mist enveloped the world.

From within the mist, a figure identical to Li Wei silently appeared, wielding a greatsword, and leaped forth to attack!

Faced with Li Wei unleashing his full power, the Mountain Demon became a punching bag.

Before long, the mountain demon was on its last legs.

It roared:

"Don't be too smug. Sooner or later, the Abyss will crush the wizarding world, and you will be buried with me!"

boom!

Accompanied by a palm strike that descended from the sky.

The King of Light's Divine Palm!

After the attack, the mountain demon split its enormous head open completely, like a ripe watermelon.

The weakened demonic soul escaped, only to be shattered by Gandalf's palm strike, leaving only its spirit, which was then captured by Leon.

Li Wei checked his bracelet, which showed that he had received 270 million points.

"Gandalf, how much are you?"

Gandalf said:

"I have 53..."

Li Wei thought to himself.

Gandalf's achievements are not even a fraction of what he has accomplished.

The Heart of the Net is indeed intelligent; even if the head is given to Gandalf, the main credit still goes to the Net itself.

This prevents some people from cheating by having their subordinates inflict damage while they steal kills themselves.

Gandalf said:

"I now have 550 million points, which I can redeem."

Li Weidao:

"Go back now and have Ace come find me. From now on, unless it's absolutely necessary, don't leave Gondor. You three Gondor heroes are too conspicuous now, and countless hostile forces want to target you. It's not advisable to go out hunting monsters until you reach the seventh ring."

The seventh ring is a node.

Once Gandalf and his companions advance to the seventh ring.

With their methods, top-grade witch artifacts are more than enough to protect themselves on the God-Abandoned Continent and even on the entire battlefield of the Blood War.

After all, there aren't many level eight demons.

Moreover, with the three clones working together, even when facing an eighth-level demon, they can retreat with ease, so Li Wei has no worries.

Similarly, the people in the Council of All Races are not a threat.

After cleaning up his spoils, Gandalf left.

The Holy Infant took over and trained under Li Wei.

……

"What? Boma is dead too? He was only dealing with Gandalf, how could this happen?"

Nova looked at the message his subordinates sent and couldn't help but question them.

Graham stood to the side, lost in thought.

"As expected, Poma is dead... Now I can confirm that there are powerful figures on the wizarding side who are using the Three Heroes of Gondor to lure out the enemy."

The reason it didn't remind Boma was to take this opportunity to confirm its point.

No matter how strong Gandalf is, he could not possibly kill a mid-stage level 7 Poma with his sixth-ring perfected body.

Therefore, Boma must have been killed by other powerful individuals.

After thinking for a moment, Graham said:

"Lord Nova, let's focus on the main battle and stop worrying about these three. It's obvious that the Gondor Three are setting a trap for us. Unless we send in level eight or even level nine demons, the other level seven demons will only be ambushed by those cunning wizards."

Nova pondered for a moment, then suppressed his anger and said:

"That makes sense. Forget about those three for now... Sooner or later, I'll make them suffer a crushing defeat and regret their actions! Graham, contact the Balrog Tyrant immediately. Our demon forces are insufficient. I aim to crush the Deep Blue Expeditionary Force within a century, completely conquer the Forsaken Continent, and establish our bridgehead for invading Nora here, creating the Abyssal Demon Land to spawn an endless army of demons!"

……

Without the Burning Expeditionary Force's targeting.

Li Wei, with the Holy Infant, searches for demons throughout the God-Forsaken Continent.

Although it's safer now, the hunting efficiency doesn't seem to be as good as before.

Aside from the main battlefields of the various warbands, he rarely saw powerful demon lords.

Only a few scattered low- to mid-level demons are found across the vast continent of the Forsaken Gods.

However, a year later, with Li Wei's help, the Holy Infant still managed to accumulate more than 500 million battle merits without any problems.

Then, together with Gandalf, they went to the Middle Kingdom and exchanged their respective Morning Star artifacts.

Interestingly, Gandalf actually managed to obtain the Flame Medal, a rare item that Li Wei had seen before.

The Holy Infant drew the [Breath of the Wind King] rare item.

Li Wei told them to exchange them, and then he kept them for himself.

For Li Wei now, only Moon-level artifacts or Morning-level artifacts from special factions are of great use.

The common Morning Star level artifacts did not significantly improve his abilities.

It would be better to let the two clones improve their qualifications and strengthen their foundation.

The [Flame Medal] goes without saying; the Holy Infant possesses a sacred body of ice and fire, and can continuously absorb rare ice and fire items to enhance its aptitude.

[Breath of the Wind King] also has a relatively high probability of giving birth to special wind-type talents.

This was of great use to Gandalf in his practice of the "Ten-Winged Heavenly Dragon Body Refining Method," since it was a wind-attribute body refining method.

Li Wei continues his demon-hunting adventures on the God-Forsaken Continent, climbing the rankings and waiting for the ancient tower to open.

……

In the blink of an eye.

Another five years have passed.

Nora, 315.

A bloody battle that lasted 103 years.

Inside a demon's lair somewhere.

Having just cleared out a demon settlement, Alyssandra and Ashe drank a potion and began to calm their minds.

During her break, Ashe opened the Level 7 Demon Slayer Ranking.

"It wasn't easy. My sister and I both made it into the top 300."

Alexandra said:

"Yes, in a few decades, we should be able to accumulate enough battle merits to obtain a Morning Star-level artifact."

They hadn't participated in the demon hunt before and were ranked very low, but they've caught up and risen to the top recently.

After becoming full-time demon hunters, it would be relatively easy for the two women, with their sixth-ring perfect cultivation, to accumulate battle merits.

In fact, most of their time was spent either searching for demons or fleeing from being hunted by demon legions.

Several times, they encountered level seven demons, and even when the two of them worked together, they were unable to kill them and could only run away.

At this moment, they realized even more deeply just how awesome the Three of Gondor were.

[Extreme Knight Li Wei has been promoted to 9th place on the Level 8 Demon Slayer Ranking. This is hereby announced!]

Suddenly, a message came through the bracelet.

Alexandra quickly opened it to check, then her eyes glazed over.

[Li Wei: 5000 million points]

Ash's eyelashes trembled, unable to hide her shock.

"Lord Li Wei, you started hunting demons around the same time as us, just a few years earlier... His points are already dozens of times higher than ours."

Alexandra said:

"In just ten years, they've gone from around 100th on the Level 8 Demon Slayer Ranking to the top ten. These people in the top ten all started full-time demon hunters in the early stages of the Blood War, and they all have battle groups supporting them."

Ashe calmed herself down and said:

"That's incredible. It looks like Lord Li Wei will reach the top of the list within five years... and within twenty years, his points will exceed one hundred million, making him the first wizard below the eighth ring to reach one hundred million points."

……

The continent abandoned by the gods.

"Thunder Realm in the Palm!"

With a single palm strike, the elemental power within a radius of over fifty miles converged into a thunderous palm that blotted out the sky!

With a clenched fist like five fingers, he instantly killed a level seven peak demon that was trapped by the battle formation!

Having defeated the demon, Havis stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

Deputy Commander Lei Hu said:

"The Yakuza Knight has already broken into 9th place. It's unbelievable."

Harvis sighed:

"That's why I say, there's always someone stronger. We've tried so hard to hunt demons, but he still managed to catch up with us."

Lei Hu hesitated and said:

"Commander, why don't you try operating alone? Leading us and the entire band like this is slowing down your battle points accumulation."

Lei Hu believed that with the leader's strength, he could easily make a name for himself even if he acted alone.

Harvis said:

"It's alright. The members of the battle group have followed me for so many years. Taking this opportunity to let them also use their battle merits to obtain cultivation resources is excellent. The ultimate goal of the council's actions is to defeat the Abyss. What difference does it make who comes in first?"

"Let's go, Thunder Fox, come with me to visit this rising star."

There aren't many people in this world who can interest Havis.

Li Wei was one of them.

Going back along the river of time, more than 200,000 years.

In that era, the Thunder School had a name that resounded throughout the wizarding world.

【Ys: Thunder of the Mortal World】

Just as Levi guessed, Havis was the reincarnation of a legendary wizard!
