Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 497 Subduing the Immortal Banyan Dragon, "The Five Beasts Nourishing Life Method"! (Long chapter, please vote and subscribe!)

one year later.

Nora, 715 years; Blood, 503 years.

Inside the Demon Tree.

Lady Xianronglong, dressed in a long palace gown and transformed into the appearance of a young girl, gazed at the black-armored swordsman in front of her.

"It seems the five-hundred-year agreement is no longer necessary. Now I am a dragon of the Ancient Dragon Continent."

Li Wei laughed:

"Yes, as the leader of the Witch's House, I hereby declare that your contract with the guardian of the Witch's House is terminated."

Immortal Banyan Dragon asked:

"Cancel it? What do I do next?"

Li Wei said solemnly:

"I would like to invite you to join an organization that belongs only to the dragon race, an organization with boundless light and a bright future."

The Immortal Banyan Dragon! Li Wei has been unable to forget it since the day he first saw it.

A thousand years later, he finally rightfully possessed it!

His initial plan was that once he became successful, he would find a way to abduct the Immortal Banyan Dragon.

Unexpectedly, he took over the dragon and the organization together.

The girl's eyes flickered slightly.

"What organization?"

Li Wei spoke each word clearly.

"The Dragon Palace!"

Li Wei plans to take over the Ancient Banyan Wonderland as the task of summoning the Immortal Banyan Dragon.

This is a pure-blooded dragon. If it were left outside, it could be captured by a demon or die prematurely, resulting in a huge loss.

The future of the Hundred Flowers Knights rests on the Immortal Banyan Dragon.

The new guardian of the Witch's House is Lei Crocodile.

With Li Wei's current strength, he is not worried about Lei E being coveted by other organizations.

He's already acquired top-tier organizations; aside from the great wizards of the Soren Continent, who would dare to mess with him?

It's unlikely that those people would lower themselves to steal a junior pet from their own family.

Anyone with eyes can see that he has a good relationship with the Lord of the Black Abyss.

Triss of the Witch's House is also a student of the Lord of the Abyss.

In terms of both strength and influence, Li Wei is already at the top of the wizarding world.

It is a behemoth that others need to be wary of.

Immortal Banyan Dragon thought for a moment and said:

"OK."

After making the vow, it followed Li Wei and arrived at the Ancient Banyan Wonderland in the form of a little girl.

Then I saw the towering tree.

"Wait... Is this the Ancient Banyan King? You, you're that three-headed dragon monster?"

The Immortal Banyan Dragon was somewhat shocked.

Although it has a bad memory, it still has a deep impression of the ancient banyan king.

And that three-headed dragon who stole the Holy Grail...

His expression was complex as he said:

"So you were the three-headed dragon, huh? This mystery has finally been solved. So you actually obtained the Holy Grail of Immortality long ago..."

Li Wei smiled apologetically:

"I'm sorry, I lied to the lady back then. The Holy Grail is of great use to me."

The fairy banyan dragon, who looked like a young girl, went from being surprised to melancholy to heartbreak.

"You, Li Wei, I trusted you so much, and you actually lied to me... Waaah, I really thought it was stolen by the Three-Headed Dragon and could never be taken back. I never expected that you, who look so honest, would be so dishonest."

You can tell it's really in pain.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Li Wei, you've done all sorts of bad things! You even deceived the underage Immortal Banyan Dragon. I condemn you."

Dressed in a green robe, Mana arrived with light steps, eager to join the spectacle.

Li Wei was helpless.

Mana came to the girl's side, took her arm, and said:

"Don't be angry anymore, we're family now."

The girl sniffled, her eyes brimming with tears.

"You have no idea how much I trust him, so let's not talk about it."

Having lived for a thousand years, Li Wei has killed countless people.

This is the first time I've felt such a strong sense of guilt.

I feel like I've deceived an innocent young girl.

The problem is, this Immortal Banyan Dragon is several thousand years old and seems quite mature.

I never expected things to turn out this way.

Li Wei immediately hinted to Mana to fetch a bunch of dragon scale fruits and a bottle of high-purity fairy nectar.

Mana patted the girl's back and said:

"I remember your name is Izzysera, right? Levi mentioned it to me. You're definitely not older than me, so I'll call you little sister... Come on, have some food and drink. These are the things Levi cherishes most. Eat your fill, eat him out of house and home, and make him sleepless at night."

Xianronglong choked up and initially refused to eat.

However, things changed after Mana fed it a mouthful of fairy nectar.

The girl licked her lips, still wanting more.

"It smells so good, it tastes so sweet!"

Li Wei had previously traded with it using dragon scale fruit.

Strategic resources like Immortal Flow Essence are never shared with outsiders.

"Gulp gulp".

Enticed by the aroma, the girl quickly finished a large bucket of fairy nectar.

Li Wei's inner thoughts.

"This is enough to brew a year's worth of Hiten Sendai sake..."

After finishing the drink, the girl put away the dragon scale fruit, hiding it under her skirt, intending to savor it slowly. She then pouted and said:

"If you want the Grail of Immortality, just tell me. It's not something I need. I'm only curious because it might involve the Immortal Banyan Dragon. Why are you so wary of me?"

Mana said:

"that is."

Li Wei was speechless.

"Alright, from now on we're all members of the Dragon Palace. Let me show you around."

The Immortal Banyan Dragon gave a light snort and said:

"OK."

Now that we're already on this pirate ship, what can we do?

Skyfire Fortress.

Black Lotus Beast Path:

"Stop what you're doing and log off. There's an important new dragon coming."

Charizard quickly asked:

"Male or female?"

Sensing the Fiery Scale Dragon's ill-intentioned gaze, it explained:

"My main concern is the reproduction of these young dragons."

Crimson Dragon Path:

"For the Dragon King to attach such importance to it, I estimate it must be a legendary dragon."

Feng Chenlong gasped.

"Our Dragon Palace is developing too fast! We just recruited a legendary dragon not long ago, and now another one has arrived. In that case, we have three legendary dragons."

The little gray dragon, who usually slept all year round, also opened its sleepy eyes.

It is currently at the peak of level 5 and is almost at level 6.

I wonder who will be promoted first, the Turtle Prime Minister or me.

Soon, Li Wei arrived with the Immortal Banyan Dragon.

To make it easier to recognize, it revealed its true form as a giant dragon, stretching for tens of thousands of meters, like a giant python encircling the mortal world.

"What kind of dragon is this?"

"Never seen one before, what a beautiful female dragon, oh... I'm just saying it as a compliment, what's wrong with that?"

Even the self-disciplined Black Lotus Beast was stunned.

"Such an elegant dragon, with an aura unique to pure-blooded dragons."

Li Weidao:

"This is Lady Izora, the Fairy Banyan Dragon. You can just call her Lady. She's new here, so please make good arrangements for her, show her around, and help her get acquainted with the Nightmare World as well."

Charizard Way:

"no problem."

Immortal Banyan Dragon Path:

"I want to sleep at Mana's place."

Mana said:

"OK."

Li Wei naturally had no objections. As a celestial banyan dragon, he and the ancient banyan king, a divine tree, were a match made in heaven.

He brought the Immortal Banyan Dragon in with this intention.

According to some schools of dragon studies, this is beneficial for the growth of both the Immortal Banyan Dragon and the Divine Tree.

As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a good tree to perch on, and the same applies to dragons.

Since this amazing symbiotic relationship exists, it must be beneficial to both parties.

After settling the Immortal Banyan Dragon in place, Li Wei left.

Those sub-dragon species and hybrid dragons were naturally enthusiastic and respectful towards the Immortal Banyan Dragon.

The majesty emanating from this bloodline level is truly terrifying.

The Charizard, which had initially been interested in the mother dragon, also lost interest.

I simply don't have the courage to marry someone from a family that's not a good match.

I'd better go and sleep while hugging my own mother tiger.

Xianronglong explored the entire Ancient Banyan Wonderland.

His expression changed from calm at first to shock later.

Thirty-six grotto-heavens and seventy-two blessed lands, each rich in elemental power and with a unique environment.

Snow-capped mountains, swamps, grasslands, forests... small but complete.

The planted species include countless rare plants and medicinal herbs.

There are also two towering dragon fir trees, covered in dragon scale flowers, and before long, another batch of dragon scale fruits will be available.

In the icy sea wonderland, the adorable snow elf clan works happily.

On the high seas, giant whales sing, accompanied by a herd of animals.

In the ancient shell palace, the beautiful shell demons were busy at work.

The Jiaoyan people and other ethnic groups live together in harmony in this place.

There is even a special ancient banyan tree shrine where spirits of the dead are born and the cycle of life and death continues.

The content here is richer than it could have imagined.

Even the resource-rich secret realms of those top wizarding organizations cannot compare.

It is truly a paradise on earth.

Sleeping here, you don't have to worry about being woken up by demons.

They are no longer in danger of losing their lives, and they don't need to deal with other powerful wizards. It's a blessing for the dinosaurs.

The most magical of all is the Nightmare World.

It had heard of this mysterious place, but had never seen it.

After the Dragon Palace troops arrived, they discovered that the territory was controlled by Li Wei and was vast and boundless.

The two legendary dragon clans, both at level eight, also had an epic meeting, becoming the left and right gatekeepers of the Dragon Palace.

And then there's Lope, the legendary great ape, who is truly impressive.

After touring the area, Xianronglong's mindset was completely different from what it was at the beginning.

It was quite certain that this was the place it wanted to be.

Of course, I chose to forgive Li Wei for deceiving me.

……

Time flies.

Li Wei continued to handle the aftermath of the Witch's House.

He tasked Hermann with leading the mechanical school to begin deploying a new defense system on the new continent where the Witch's House was located.

At the same time, the existing battle groups of the Witch's House will be coordinated and integrated.

There was not much resistance encountered in this process.

The Wind Witch, a seasoned eighth-ring wizard, was extremely cooperative with his work, even though he and she were complete strangers before.

Triss then returned to the Witch's House.

She is also at the seventh level of cultivation, second only to the Wind Witch in the current organization.

Li Wei then appointed the two women as deputy tower masters, responsible for handling the aftermath of the Witch's House.

Besides, there are only nine remaining Soul Witches in the Witch's House.

This also includes the Snow Lotus Witch and Aynea's wife, the Phantom Witch.

Li Wei initially thought that the Witch's House only had a small number of Yuanhun Wizards on the surface, and that there were many more hidden trump cards and strengths.

Unexpectedly, this organization really did only have a dozen or so Yuanhun witches left...

Come to think of it, the elemental spirit wizards are the face and nuclear deterrent of every organization, so there is no need to hide them at all.

Most organizations will try their best to demonstrate their strength and power.

This shows that the Witch's House has developed in a severely distorted way over the past few thousand years, resulting in a shortage of young talent.

This is an unhealthy and unreasonable power pyramid structure.

Ultimately, the problem stems from a lack of sufficient talent.

The elemental spirit wizards either switch jobs or perish, constantly being lost... but there's no fresh blood to replenish them.

Otherwise, as a top-tier wizarding organization, it should have at least several dozen elemental spirit wizards.

If the Witch's House does not reform, destruction is inevitable.

Resting on past glories is not advisable.

In his view, the organization had too many problems and needed radical reforms.

Fortunately, as a top-tier wizarding organization, its foundation is still intact.

Among the low- and mid-level wizard groups, there are also many with special talents, and even those who are children of the elements.

Li Wei included all these people on his list of key people to watch.

In my spare time, I also take a look at their growth and cultivation trajectory.

In addition, Li Wei enhanced the Witch's House's appeal by using the unique divine talisman as a selling point.

Anyone who joins the Ancient Dragon Continent will have the opportunity to learn the "Fourth Art of Wizardry," gaining an extra combat skill.

Finally, he also greatly strengthened various organizations such as the Twilight Temple, the Tower of Dawn, and the Witch's House, including inter-racial alliances.

Fresh blood needs to be found both externally and internally.

The members of the Ancient Dragon Continent are all elites.

Relatively speaking, if both parents are talented, the probability of their offspring being talented is far greater than that of ordinary people.

This is a widely accepted fact in the wizarding world.

In addition, although many wizards look down on other races.

However, those who are mixed-race with some humanoid alien races often have good cultivation aptitude.

The mixed-race members of the sea race in the past are an example, which gave rise to two top-level body-refining wizard organizations: the Abyss Alliance and the Submerged Ancient City.

Therefore, the dwarves, halflings, and other alien races on the Ancient Dragon Continent could absolutely intermarry with humans.

Abandon those prejudices and constraints, and boldly unite.

During a bloody battle, nothing is more important than becoming stronger.

The noble dragonborn are essentially those who benefit from the powerful bloodline of dragons.

Two years later.

The reforms to the Witch's House are already showing initial results.

Finally, there was some life returning to the organization.

Li Wei also temporarily put aside his work here.

He has steered the organization in the right direction; now it's up to the management to execute the plan.

……

Nora, 717.

A bloody battle that lasted 505 years.

The eighth level of hell.

"Brother, congratulations on reaching the eighth ring! I'm so envious!"

The Hellfire Sword felt a longing in its heart as it sensed Li Wei's vast aura.

The three witches beside them, as well as the Fox Demon Queen, were equally at a loss for words.

Every time I see my owner, I feel like he has grown taller, just like a bamboo shoot.

This speed of cultivation advancement is simply magical.

The potential of humankind is truly unimaginable.

Especially the Desire Realm Demoness; when she was at level seven, her master was only at level six.

She's only at the mid-stage of level seven, having advanced a small realm.

The master, however, broke through two major realm barriers in succession.

People are more mad than people.

But the thought that I am the devil makes me feel much better.

At the very least, living longer is an advantage.

Li Weidao:

"Second brother's cultivation is progressing well, and he is almost at the seventh ring senior level. You have a solid foundation, so keep it up and don't slack off. I brought you some rare items. Although the quality is average, they are suitable for you. You can take them."

"This is the Breath of the Wind King, a Morning Star artifact that can improve your cultivation aptitude. And this Flame Emblem is also a Morning Star artifact, and its effects are quite good."

The Demon Sword of Purgatory was startled.

"Brother, this is too precious, you mustn't accept it, you mustn't accept it!"

These are two rare Morning Star artifacts. As far as he knows, they are worth over a billion gold coins in the Wizarding World combined.

Li Wei said solemnly:

"Take them. These strange items are useless to me, and it's not convenient for you to collect them here in Hell."

Purgatory Demon Sword's eyes welled up slightly.

"A man doesn't easily shed tears, but I really can't hold back. My elder brother is truly my second father, so I'll accept this rare item."

Li Wei then smiled.

Both of these wondrous items have already been refined by the three-part body.

Later, during their demon-hunting process, they obtained it by chance.

Li Wei used this as a gift to his second brother, adding to his legendary journey.

Looking back, my second brother hasn't consumed many rare items in his cultivation so far. He still has a lot of room for growth.

Purgatory Demon Sword Path:

"I heard that my brother has acquired the Witch's House. That's quite a big deal."

Li Wei laughed heartily.

"It's nothing. Second brother, do your best in hell. You'll definitely have a place in hell in the future."

The Demon Fox Mistress said:

"Master, we have found the whereabouts of the Black Prison Beast. That guy has already left the eighth level and gone to the ninth level. It is said that he is now a guardian under a big figure in hell. He has found a good job and a powerful backer."

Li Wei asked:

"That important person?"

The Demon Fox Mistress said:

"Lady White Bone is a spirit who attained the ninth level and is ranked among the seventy-two pillars. By the way, Lady White Bone also has a sister, the Death Banshee of the seventh level of Dragonfall Valley. Master has probably heard of her; she is an eighth-level expert."

Li Wei pondered.

"I see."

Hell is essentially similar to the Wizarding World.

Most of those level eight powerhouses have their own powerful backers.

This is a common phenomenon that inevitably occurs in civilized societies.

Unless it's a group like the Black Beasts, which lacks civilization.

He remembered that when he wanted to capture the Death Banshee, he had sensed a sense of danger in Dragonfall Valley.

It might be related to Lady White Bone.

Fortunately, he didn't go; otherwise, he would have provoked a powerful enemy and caused unnecessary trouble.

Just like in Journey to the West, they all seem like demons and monsters, but in reality, they all have powerful backers.

"Brother, I've prepared a feast; let's drink and feast for a few days."

"Okay, okay."

Before leaving, Li Wei brought 2 billion ghost coins and more than 30 soul stones from the Demon Fox Tribe and the Ghost Elephant Tribe.

In addition, there are some materials that are special to hell.

These materials are primarily for upgrading the [Dark Soul Tower] and the [Necronomicon].

……

The Styx River flows vast and boundless, stretching across the sky.

The once-in-a-century Underworld Market has begun.

As soon as Li Wei entered, he felt a surprised voice ring out in his mind.

"Wow, you've already reached the eighth ring so quickly? Congratulations!"

Li Wei looked closely and saw an old acquaintance.

It was the black-armored giant he met on his first trip to the Underworld City, whose name was Digo Nohan.

Li Wei laughed:

"have not seen you for a long time."

The burly man in black armor sighed:

"Yes, I haven't been to Hell for many years because of work. This time, I was trusted by my superiors to become a merchant in the underworld market on the eighth level. I didn't expect you to come too."

Li Wei's heart stirred.

It seems that the merchants in the underworld market are also divided into different ranks, with the lower ranks being more prestigious.

When Li Wei was weak, he couldn't accurately perceive the rank of the Han Dynasty.

Judging from the current situation, Da Han's cultivation level is only at the late stage of the eighth level.

It remains very strong, at the level of a leader of a top-tier wizarding organization.

But there was no sense of pressure anymore, after all, I was also at level eight.

The burly man in black armor was truly shocked.

He and Livy had been separated for only a few hundred years.

For the underworld officials who control life and death and have long lifespans, this is really nothing.

In a daze, it seemed to see a figure like Sauron again.

"Sir, I'd like to buy some things first, and then we can talk."

Li Wei was preoccupied with shopping.

"Okay, you go ahead and get busy."

At the stall.

Li Wei's eyes quickly scanned the area.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

"The Land of Rest for the Dead!"

He arrived almost simultaneously with another demon exuding an aura of power level eight.

In the end, he was one step ahead and got it first.

Another pound of the deceased's earth, worth 13 billion ghost money.

"In this way, the Ancient Banyan Netherworld is growing even faster, not bad, not bad."

A dissatisfied voice muttered.

"Where did this pig demon come from, daring to steal my things?"

The level eight demon was a humanoid man with a dog's head and covered in scales. He was tall and thin and held a long spear in his hand.

He and the dog-headed underworld merchant that Li Wei had met last time were of the same race.

The Demon Dog Clan is a renowned and powerful force on the eighth floor.

This demon tribe has many level eight experts, and even has an ancestor who ranks among the seventy-two pillars.

The fourth pillar, [Lord of the Underworld, Nubius], is from the Demon Dog Clan and is a level ten demon.

Therefore, the Demon Dog Clan roams freely on the eighth level. This clan is also quite powerful in the Underworld, with many strong individuals serving there.

Li Wei laughed:

"Sorry, I got it first."

The level eight demon snorted coldly and said nothing.

Given its status and knowledge on the eighth floor, it had never heard of a level eight pig demon powerhouse.

I have no idea which nook or cranny it came from.

Fighting is forbidden in the underworld, and it dares not make an exception.

It was not afraid of the burly man in black armor in front of it.

It was simply worried that the underworld would punish its own kind, and that it would lose more than it gained.

Li Wei continued purchasing.

"A small piece of level 8 Dark Soul Holy Gold, worth 600 million, buy it."

This was the key material for his advancement of the Necronomicon; he was lucky.

In the end, only 1 million gold coins remained, and they couldn't afford to buy anything else of value.

Li Wei received 10 blind boxes and it became a habit; he felt uncomfortable if he didn't participate in the lottery.

After finishing his business here, Li Wei sat cross-legged next to the black-armored giant, seemingly meditating, but actually chatting with him.

The burly man in black armor said:

"That man was Artus, a descendant of the Lord of the Underworld. Although he's not very strong, he has powerful connections. He had a conflict with a merchant from the Underworld before, but he was taught a lesson and behaved himself."

Li Weidao:

"No wonder, thank you for reminding me."

He could sense the lingering hostility; Artus was most likely lying in wait outside.

If the burly man in black armor hadn't reminded him, he might have killed it.

This will make things difficult in hell later on.

The burly man in black armor said:

"Although Hell is a subordinate world of the Underworld, when someone's strength reaches a certain level, such as the Seventy-Two Pillars, even we servants wouldn't dare to provoke them."

Li Wei sighed:

"It seems that you, as a member of the underworld, have your own difficulties."

The burly man in black armor looked on with a hint of reminiscence.

"Yes. That's why I'm hoping for the Undying Underworld Emperor's early return. The Underworld is in turmoil right now, with factions entrenched in the web. One wrong move and you could lose your job. Before I served in the Underworld, I was just an ordinary level eight. I only gained a lifespan that you ordinary people can't even imagine because I was lucky enough to obtain an Underworld identity. But this is ultimately obtained by relying on external things, and it's easy to revert to your original state... By the way, did you buy that Breath Soil for the [Necropolis]?"

Li Wei nodded.

The burly man in black armor said:

"This Breath Soil isn't actually that rare in the Underworld, but it can't be circulated freely. If you still need it, you can stay here when the Underworld Market opens in the future, and I can sell you some within the permitted scope."

Li Wei was overjoyed, but then calmed down.

"Is there anything you need me to do? I have searched for the whereabouts of the Undying Underworld Emperor through the books and connections of the wizarding world, but I really have no clue. I have only heard of it in the legends of the Black Pheasant Clan. Before the Phoenix died, it allowed different beings to devour its body, giving birth to a group of [the first generation of Undying Seeds], but that may not be true."

Upon hearing this, the burly man in black armor laughed:

"I've heard this legend too. It's probably half true and half false. Beings like the Undying Underworld Emperor have lived for countless eons. They might be tired of the eternal lifespan we pursue and want to do something fun occasionally, which is understandable. Don't worry, I don't need you to do anything. I just have high hopes for your future, just like when I first met you. Making a good connection with someone like you, establishing a seemingly insignificant link, might bring benefits in the future, hahaha."

Li Wei seemed to be deep in thought.

"Thank you very much."

These old fogies in the underworld are really shrewd. In the end, they all have something to ask for.

However, for Li Wei, obtaining more Breath Land at this time would indeed be a good thing.

If I become successful in the future, I will never forget the help I received.

This time, the two talked for a long time, and Li Wei learned some common knowledge about the underworld.

After the underworld market ended, the burly man in black armor laughed:

"Goodbye. Perhaps it won't be long before we meet again, and you'll have surpassed me in achievement. You are truly a formidable young man."

Li Wei waved goodbye.

He had a premonition that he would inevitably have to go to the underworld someday.

With the Hermit Runes flashing, Li Wei left the eighth floor right under Artust's nose.

The creature crouched for a long time but couldn't find the pig demon from before, and left dejectedly. Little did it know, it had escaped a terrible fate because of it.

……

Ancient Banyan Tree Wonderland.

Having temporarily returned to the mortal realm, Li Wei immediately buried the deceased under the tombstone.

The Yellow Springs flow gently, filled with the lingering aura of death.

After the new and old sources of the Breath of Earth merged, Li Wei clearly felt that the rate at which the Breath of Earth multiplied had increased significantly.

Now, the area within a ten-mile radius has become a "graveyard of the dead." Within the miasma, the lowest-level undead creatures—wraiths, zombies, skeletons, and so on—are multiplying, numbering in the thousands.

In their past lives, they might have been princes of some country, or even primordial spirit wizards. Now, they are merely insignificant undead.

at the same time.

Summon "Pleasant Goat" to activate [Absolute Luck], and all 10 blind boxes will be opened.

The first box opened to reveal the "Golden Legend," which was a level seven combat skill called "Whirling Turtle Shield Technique."

"Great, a successful start."

Li Wei stored his combat skills in the Twilight Temple Treasury, allowing the [Crocodile Turtle Knight] to study and practice them.

Over the years, the Knight's Combat Art Library has accumulated many high-level combat techniques that can be considered "masterpieces of the sect".

Li Wei's "Extreme Strategy", the Oni Elephant Clan's "One Hundred and Eight Hammers of the Chaotic Elephant", the Golden Pheasant Clan's "Dawn Battle Manual", and so on... Every knight, every school of thought, can find a suitable combat technique to learn.

All the blind boxes have been opened.

Li Wei also obtained an eighth-ring spell, so you could say he was very lucky.

Its name is "Theonado's Sound Barrier". Sound wave spells are not uncommon, but this is the first time Li Wei has encountered one that is at the eighth ring.

It is a high-quality spell; when mastered, it can create a super sound barrier with a diameter of one hundred kilometers around the caster. It is among the spells with the largest sphere of influence in the eight-ring system.

This sound barrier can reduce a massive amount of damage from enemies, especially area-of-effect damage. It not only works on yourself but also on all friendly units.

The sound barrier effect lasts for ten seconds, during which time it is equivalent to adding a temporary layer of armor to friendly units.

Although its defense is relatively weak among the eight rings, it has the advantage of wide coverage.

"Excellent. It's perfect for strengthening my Shadow Legion. Before a fight, each person can put on a shield to reduce the loss rate of shadows."

Li Wei temporarily put away his magic and would resume his practice after returning from the ancient tower.

……

The Dark Tower.

The fifth floor.

"My Lord, great news! We've found a top genius! Lisa, come here!"

Lisa is a very beautiful little girl with freckles on her face, and she looks timid.

Li Wei asked:

"How long have you been practicing?"

Lisa said:

"Sir, I am thirteen years old this year, and I have been meditating for two and a half years."

Li Wei laughed:

"Not bad, becoming a formal wizard in just two and a half years."

This speed is much faster than Li Wei's back then. He only became a formal wizard in middle age... the early stages were incredibly difficult.

Lisa is the child of the wind element, with the special talent of "Daughter of the Wind," which is what wizards call a "top genius," making her a coveted prize for top organizations.

Therefore, the Dharma King took special care of her, providing her with no shortage of resources, so her spiritual practice naturally progressed smoothly.

Pollock said:

"Heavenly Venerable, there is also a Child of Fire Element, and three individuals with special talents."

Li Weidao:

"Well done. You can take this top-grade sixth-ring artifact."

Pollock was overjoyed.

With this top-grade sixth-ring magical artifact, his combat power will increase significantly.

"Thank you, Heavenly Venerable. I haven't done well enough. I will continue to work hard!"

The other Dharma Kings also came to report on their work and received rewards from Livi.

these years.

Another barbarian king has been born among the barbarians, and it seems that a new demon king has appeared in the Million Mountains. In the underground world, there are also traces of several black beast lords.

As time goes by, what was lost has returned through the ancient pagoda's self-restoration...

The human race has four High Priests, making them incredibly powerful, and they also have the sixth-ring alchemical creatures bestowed upon them as a trump card, ensuring their long-term peace and stability. He won't interfere much in anything else.

After leaving the fifth floor, he jumped directly to the seventh floor.

This is the Saint Laurent Continent, Runeterra, in the 200th year of the Apocalypse for the human race.

The three realms and four lands bowed down and submitted, all behaving very obediently, and Li Wei did not cause any trouble.

Gray and White Academy.

At the round table, Li Wei listened to the report from the Council of Saints.

"Heavenly Venerable, Gray White Academy currently has over ten thousand teachers and students from all over the mainland, and the enrollment process is still ongoing."

"The number of black beasts harassing the restricted area has also decreased. Some time ago, we sent out a special team to carry out a major cleanup of the black beasts on the edge of the restricted area. We found 2 sub-dragons, 15 hybrid dragons, and a total of 67 other rare creatures. They have all been purified and are now being kept in the [Mountain and Sea Beast Garden]."

"The bloodline transplant laboratory has also been successfully established, and bloodline transplants have begun on some volunteers in Runeterra. We will also begin experimenting with the Knight Breathing Technique left behind by the Celestials as soon as possible. In addition, the 'Fifth Edition General Non-Bloodline Breathing Technique: Five Beasts Nourishing Life Method' has also begun to be popularized among mortals."

"The mechanical school is also under construction, and we old guys are constantly learning, striving for a flourishing of diverse ideas."

……

The saints reported on their respective tasks in detail, and everyone looked spirited and full of energy.

It is worth mentioning that the "Fifth Edition General Non-Blood Vein Breathing Method - Five Beasts Nourishing Life Method" is a special breathing method that Li Wei previously researched to promote the development of the [Twilight Academy].

It integrates five basic non-bloodline breathing techniques, simplifying and extracting their essence, making it more suitable for ordinary people without bloodlines to cultivate.

During cultivation, special "Five Beast Elixirs" are also required, namely monkey, bear, deer, tiger, and eagle.

These Five Beast Elixir do not necessarily require extraordinary creatures; ordinary wild beasts will suffice.

The cultivation of the "Five Beasts Nourishing Life Method" has a low ceiling; even reaching level one is difficult. However, for those with talent and perseverance, becoming a top-tier powerhouse in the eyes of most mortals, like a "Great Knight" in the Dharma-ending Age, is still achievable.

This method is called the Health Preservation Method. Its purpose is not to achieve extraordinary things, but to strengthen the body, prolong life, and can be practiced by everyone.

It would be good if, given the sheer size of the human population, a large number of experts comparable to wizard apprentices were born.

Furthermore, all five of these common beasts can be bred artificially, which is not technically difficult at all, and there is no problem with the supply of the secret medicine.

In the Ancient Dragon Continent, the "Five Beasts Nourishing Life Method" has been popular for some time and has been quite effective.

There is also a matching combat technique called "Five Beasts Connecting Form Fist".

Through this method, Li Wei mass-produced many mortals with a certain level of combat power, even capable of fighting demons.

The stronger a mortal becomes, the greater their chances of escaping danger, which also reduces the pressure on the superhuman organizations that protect them.

Livy was very satisfied with the work of the saints.

In the past two hundred years, the number of saints has increased significantly faster than before, and there are now more than 20.

Some newly born saints, who had long admired the Supreme Saint, were extremely excited to see the real person.

After Li Wei made them make vows, he also rewarded them with some cultivation resources as a beginner's gift.

The Flame Wolf Saint's cultivation is unparalleled, already a peak level seven expert. It seems that he has a chance to advance to level eight within a few hundred years. After that, the Rune Land will be guarded by the [King's Authority Saint].

The Water Dragon Saint has also made significant progress and is close to the late stage of level seven.

These people are all extraordinary for being able to advance to level seven under such difficult circumstances. Given the right opportunity, it wouldn't be difficult for them to take off.

Previously, there were few Saints in Runeterra, mainly due to the suppression from the Three Realms and Four Regions. Otherwise, given the size and resources of the Saint Laurent Continent, Li Wei felt that the birth of hundreds of Saints would not have been a problem.

After the meeting.

The Flame Wolf Saint offered a storage ring, which Li Wei accepted and glanced at.

"That's good. If you have difficulty advancing to level eight, you can mention it to me then."

The Flame Wolf Saint hurriedly said:

"Not yet. With my qualifications, I'm not sure if I can be promoted successfully. I can only say I'll give it a try. Thank you for your kindness, Celestial Venerable."

After secretly surveying Runeterra, Li Wei left.

Before leaving, he handed over the golden scepter he had received from the Letney family to the Holy Council for joint management. This was an eighth-level rare treasure, quite powerful, and could be used if encountering a powerful enemy.

The Saint Laurent race is now on the right track, so his presence or absence won't have much of an impact.

After that, he wouldn't need to worry about anything; he would only need to come and collect some resources and wizard seedlings periodically.

The ring that the Flame Wolf Saint gave him contained all the treasures that the Three Realms and Four Regions had presented to the Supreme Saints over the years.

There are two level-eight elemental metals, as well as three Morning Star artifacts and eight Sky artifacts.

The items that are useful to Li Wei are the Sky-level [Wind King's Armor], the Morning-level [Golden God's Crown], and the Morning-level [Water King's Scepter].

The Armor of the Wind King is the final component of Gandalf's Wind King Sequence. Once refined, this sequence of wondrous items will be complete.

The Crown of the Golden God is a rare artifact in the Golden God sequence. Viktor has only refined the Moon-level Crown of the Golden God in this sequence. Collecting the rest will be a long and arduous task.

The Water King's Scepter is the core artifact of the Water King sequence. It can be refined by Elena, and having it is better than not having it.

There are many other materials and herbs, which need no further explanation.

Li Wei arrived at the [Mountain and Sea Beast Garden], which he built to make full use of the biological resources on the seventh floor of the ancient tower. It can be considered a low-end version of the Giant Beast Paradise.

There are two sub-dragon species: the Bronze Armored Dragon and the Wind Chaser Dragon.

The former is the mother dragon, at the mid-stage of level six.

The latter is a male dragon, level six, late stage.

The Copper Armored Dragon is a rare metal-type dragon, whose bloodline originates from the [Molten Gold Dragon].

The Molten Gold Dragon is a very powerful metal dragon. It is said that the Molten Gold Witch King's soul weapon is an armor made from the scales of the Molten Gold Dragon, which is quite powerful and ranks high on the soul weapon list.

Li Wei's current Dragon Palace was in need of metal-type dragons, so he immediately recruited them and bestowed upon them the title of "Heavenly Copper Dragon General".

As the name suggests, the [Wind Chaser Dragon] is a wind-attribute dragon.

Its bloodline originates from the [Wind Flash Dragon], a dragon race known for its speed.

Li Wei bestowed upon him the title of "Heavenly Dragon General" and sent him to the Dragon Palace.

Both of these sub-dragon species, once fully evolved, are at level seven, and still have some room for growth.

In this way, Li Wei calculated that the Heavenly Dragon Generals of the Dragon Palace were almost full. As for the Seventy-Two Earthly Dragon Generals, they had already been assembled.

The Dragon Palace is developing too fast.

"The 108 Heavenly Dragon Generals and Earthly Dragon Generals will remain unchanged and will continue to be ranked according to their performance in the Dragon Path Assembly. New positions may be added in addition to the Heavenly and Earthly Dragon Generals."

Time flies.

Li Wei and A Jin lingered on the seventh floor for more than half a year.

They found some more treasures and captured some creatures.

But apart from the four streaks of sky and the two morning star artifacts, most of them were just trivial things.

They didn't encounter any rare or wondrous objects, including the bright moon.

Firstly, there wasn't enough time, and secondly, Akin's answer wasn't absolutely accurate.

He decisively initiated the Level 8 Law Enforcer Trial; it was time to take it to the next level.

The ancient pagoda scepter shimmered with light, and lines of characters appeared.

[Trial Objective: Uproot the pillar that stabilizes the Sea of ​​Hearts and slay the suppressed being.]

[Success Reward: Gain Level 8 Enforcer privileges.]

[Note: Those who are suppressed are quite powerful; please be prepared before undergoing the trial.]

Li Wei's eyes flickered.

"As expected, the pillar that Sauron left behind is a trial for future generations. I wonder what is suppressed beneath it? Now that I possess the power of an eighth-level Crimson Emperor Dragon, I should be able to pull it out at full power. I can take the pillar with me and start the crafting process at the Wizard Tower when I get back."
