Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 523 Mythical Zhu Yan!

Chapter 523 Myth: Zhu Yan! (Long chapter, please vote and subscribe!)

After the eight rings were completed.

Li Wei's mental strength reached the level of 22000.

His current maximum mental strength is 25600.

I'm still a little over 3,000 mental energy points away from reaching the eighth ring limit.

During this period, the witch mark will be fully imprinted.

All preparations for the promotion to the ninth ring have been completed.

Then the first transformation from human to god can begin.

Once you overcome this, you will have the body of a demigod.

Unable to overcome it, more than 1,300 years of effort turned to dust.

Li Wei arrives in the Nightmare World.

He retested the power of his innate spells and elemental soul spells.

The three major spells are Fire Dragon Calamity, Ice Dragon Prison, and Thunder Dragon Flash.

Each of these can be taken out individually and used as one's main combat tactic.

The power of the main battle elemental spirit spells such as Eight Directions Blazing Sun and Thousand Thunder is even more terrifying.

If Ronan, who is at the mid-stage of level eight, is unable to dodge in time, he could be severely injured instantly.

You must understand that it is a pure-blooded dragon, and cannot be measured by ordinary standards.

That being said, when hunting demons, no matter how powerful the magic is, it cannot replace the basic attack of sword energy.

Li Wei's consciousness entered his mind.

As the level of spiritual power increases, the Holy Tower of the Dharma Ring becomes increasingly solid.

The vast spiritual energy began to warm the bodies of the companion spirits like a hot spring.

Ah Jin's fur became increasingly soft, and Ah Biao's buttocks became more and more perky...

Nick, Frey, and Sire have all improved their strength.

With this in mind, Li Wei summoned the spirit creatures that were farming in the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

Apart from Aya, who is wandering outside, everyone else is getting stronger together.

Looking at A Long, Li Wei recalled the giant earth dragon, hundreds of miles long, from Ms. Rowling's demiplane.

That thing didn't look like an earthworm at all; it looked more like a real earth vein dragon.

Once I advance to the rank of Grand Wizard, these spirit creatures may also undergo a transformation.

After nourishing the spirit creature, Li Wei opened the proficiency panel.

The four spells, "Theonado's Sound Barrier," "Sea God's Armor," "Sea Change," and "Sea Delta," have already reached the nineteenth level limit.

The thickness of the sound barrier reached its maximum.

After testing, it is equivalent to adding a protective force field of the seventh ring level to the group.

Before the force field was shattered, his shadow army was invincible.

The defensive strength of the "Armor of the Sea God" is sufficient to withstand the attacks of the Khorne Overlord for a period of time.

It should be noted that Khorne has returned to the peak of level eight.

It was once considered the realm and foundation of the legendary dragon race.

Its attack power is roughly equivalent to the highest level below level nine.

A comparison between Li Wei and the Diamond Sutra.

It was discovered that the strength of the Sea God Armor was actually even greater than that of the Secret Word.

That's normal, though, since Secret Words is only at the mid-level of level eight.

The Sea God Armor represents the pinnacle of magical cultivation, reaching the eighth level of perfection.

Unfortunately, Li Wei did not have a level nine dragon.

Otherwise, we could test the instantaneous defense limit of "Armor of the Sea God".

Nora is extremely vast, and the most abundant part of its terrain is the ocean.

His main battlefield for hunting demons is also the ocean.

Therefore, this spell is very practical.

As for the "Changing Seas and Changing Fields" spell, it was probably the one Li Wei used most frequently.

Over the years, "land reclamation" has been carried out.

The area of the Ancient Dragon Continent has increased by one-third without anyone noticing.

Once he advances to the ninth ring, his earnings should double.

We'll use this spell to transform the Ancient Dragon Continent and its surrounding satellite continents.

We could create some kind of spectacle.

Since the name is Ancient Dragon Continent.

It can be made into the shape of a "dragon with outstretched wings" or a "coiled dragon".

For a great wizard, moving mountains and seas, and dividing rivers into land, is not a difficult task.

The final one, "Sea Delta," is equally powerful.

Furthermore, the "Miniature Disintegration Technique" has also reached its limit.

It's quite useful for breaking magic arrays and inanimate objects occasionally.

Next, we'll wait until after the ninth ring to learn the real "Disintegration Technique".

Other spells have improved, but they are still far from being advanced.

Regarding the Knight's Breathing Technique.

The fastest is still the Crimson Emperor Dragon, which is not far from reaching the late stage of level eight.

Other projects have varying progress, but with persistent effort, they will eventually reach their limits.

Finding more sub-dragons and pure-blooded dragons is Li Wei's next priority.

In terms of combat skills, he has three top-notch sparring partners: Lope, Red King, and Golden Knife.

"Extreme Strategy" is steadily improving and is not far from the eighth level limit.

After reaching level nine, you should be able to create your own "units".

From the perspective of the barbarian's extraordinary system, nine is the ultimate number in the art of combat.

The six fundamental attributes are the most important.

Li Wei has a proficiency panel.

He was rather curious.

Can the art of combat also break through the so-called ninth-level shackles, allowing it to advance further and pioneer new paths?

A few days later, Li Wei's Fool's Rune reached the eleventh tier.

The power of deception and the power of foresight have been increased to 100%!

This means that he can summon new Star Souls again.

In my mind, the smiling pig-faced star spirit shone brightly.

Then, a beam of starlight shot straight into the sky and disappeared into nothingness.

……

Star Palace.

This is a magical dimension that lies between the astral plane and the material plane.

A cluster of palaces floats here like a mirage.

These palaces are arranged like stars in the sky, seemingly chaotic yet orderly.

Powerful auras lurked within.

Compared to the chaotic Astral Gods' Land, this place seems to have been undisturbed by the Zerg.

Inside the golden hall, a giant beast that looked like a domestic pig lay coiled up.

Suddenly, He opened His empty, lifeless, dark eyes.

His smiling pig face gives people a contradictory feeling of being both foolish and wise.

Or perhaps it's more accurate to say... that great wisdom appears as foolishness.

It seems that everything is under His control.

"The Star Speaker has arrived."

He already knew of the existence of the Star Speaker in the lower realm from his colleagues.

This person practices the secret methods of the language of planets and stars.

As of today, the four star souls of Pegasus, Ox, Aries, and Jade Rabbit have been summoned simultaneously.

Even in the former Starforger civilization, this was a rare genius.

"In that case, let the Star Soul descend... I look forward to his future performance. With his assistance, the day the Bull returns from its orbit around the astral plane may just be the day the world is transformed!"

He gently exhaled a ray of starlight, which fell to earth.

……

Ancient Banyan Tree Wonderland.

Li Wei stared at the ordinary-looking fat pig that had appeared before him and fell into deep thought.

The star spirits he summoned were becoming increasingly abstract...

He opened the proficiency panel.

……

【Star Soul - Blind Pig】

[Star Name: Ange Nust]

[Star Sign: Great Wisdom Appears as Foolishness]

[Star Language: Prophet]

[Level: Eight]

[Ability: Blind Fooling]

[Blind Foolishness: After summoning the Star Soul, you can briefly enter a state of "unpredictability, undivination, and unseeing." Anyone who forcibly looks directly at you will suffer a backlash from the Blind Pig Star Soul, falling into a negative mental state for a period of time. At best, this will result in temporary loss of reason and confusion of will; at worst, it will damage the mind, shatter the spirit, and lead to a state of confusion and disorientation. This ability has a certain effect on level nine and ten beings.]

Li Wei was shocked after reading it.

"Such powerful ability, capable of influencing even a level ten being?"

Li Wei knew that behind each rune was a supreme being.

It seems the person behind the Fool's rune must be extremely skilled in divination.

Therefore, His astrological term is "prophet".

This thing may seem ethereal, but it is actually very useful.

This means that Li Wei was doing some shady things.

Even a level ten expert might not be able to predict one's own actions.

In other words, he is the one who "transcends the three realms and is not within the five elements".

"grateful!"

Li Wei raised his head and muttered to himself.

He didn't know if those beings could hear him.

Regardless, his power came from others.

He needs to have a grateful heart.

These great beings, unlike gods, did not require Livy to force himself to believe in them.

This is also something that Li Wei still finds somewhat puzzling to this day.

What exactly are these things trying to achieve?

The Starforger civilization has been destroyed.

When he has the power to speak directly with them, he will be able to answer all these questions.

He withdrew his Star Soul and went to the Corpse Demon Refining Pool.

The liquid, which he had brewed from a pool of rare materials using over 10 billion taels of gold, had been completely absorbed by the enormous, mountain-sized dragon corpse.

The corpse demon had changed drastically by this time.

The once pure white scales turned a deep, dark black.

Ink-black flames flowed all around, like a freehand ink painting.

On each scale, there are corpse demon runes branded by Li Wei.

He took out the Crimson Dragon Iron Blade and unleashed a normal attack.

Clang! Accompanied by the clang of metal and the splashing of sparks.

The divine weapon was deflected, leaving only a white mark on the surface of the dragon scales.

"Such powerful defense."

The Wind Phantom Dragon is not known for its defense.

However, after absorbing so many rare materials from Li Wei...

Its defensive capabilities should be comparable to those of a pure-blooded dragon after death.

Afterwards, Li Wei led the Corpse Demon away from the Ancient Banyan Wonderland.

The training grounds beneath the Imperial Palace.

Li Wei tested the strength of its magical resistance with the Fire Dragon Calamity.

Even spells powerful enough to kill an early-stage level eight demon couldn't break through the scales' defenses.

Only after repeatedly striking the same point of stress can some cracks be barely opened.

However, in actual combat, this situation is equivalent to standing still and letting the enemy attack, which is impossible.

Li Wei then used the even more powerful "Eight Directions Blazing Sun".

With the eight great suns crashing down, the impact on the corpse demon was significantly greater this time.

The scales are charred and cracked, indicating severe damage.

Li Wei's ultimate Yuanhun magic is still very powerful.

If it were any other eighth-ring wizard...

Using the same Eight Directions Blazing Sun technique would certainly not achieve the same effect.

Before long, the shattered scales began to slowly heal.

The dragon corpse demon possesses a certain degree of self-healing ability, so these superficial injuries can be ignored.

After that, Livy tested various schools of magic one by one.

In the end, they were all blocked by the giant dragon corpse demon.

"This is too strong. This is the strongest tank I had before I advanced to the ninth ring."

Whether it's physical defense or magic resistance.

The dragon corpse demon can instill despair in any enemy below level nine.

Next, we need to find a way to test its effectiveness against level nine opponents.

Of course, before that, we need to find a powerful spiritual creature.

Ideally, one should be at the peak of level 8; at the very least, one should be at the late stage of level 8.

At a lower level, I wouldn't be able to control such a powerful body.

Li Wei chanted an incantation, summoning Xiao Fen and instructing her to deliver a message to the Demon Fox Mistress.

He needs information on all undead of level 8 and above in the first eight levels of Hell.

Ideally, it should be someone without any powerful connections or background, someone Li Wei could bully.

Little Pink nodded obediently and skipped happily down to hell.

While waiting for his second brother's reply, Li Wei went to the Ancient Banyan Wonderland for his daily inspection.

In the land of Flaming Mountain, the iron tree has grown to over seventy feet tall.

Once these types of trees have a solid foundation at the base, the top part of the tree grows very quickly.

Judging from this trend, the iron tree will be almost fully grown before Li Wei advances to the ninth ring.

Li Weike spent a lot of resources to accelerate its growth.

The best grade 8 fertilizers, and even nutrient solutions like fairy sap and imperial sap were used for injection.

This is the future crown jewel tree of the Ancient Dragon Continent's Body Refining Academy!

Of the other rare plants, few are currently useful to Liwei.

He left it all to the elves, bees, and rock sprites to manage.

Afterwards, Li Wei arrived at the Golden Light Cave.

Here lies the Golden Knife Swordsman he cherishes.

When the Golden Knife Swordsman saw Li Wei arrive, he lowered his head in submission.

Li Wei smiled and nodded.

Beneath the sword of victory lies the mantis's lair.

All seven insect eggs have hatched.

A group of praying mantises, each about the size of a kitten, huddled together, raising their front claws and trembling.

"She's quite cute, actually."

Li Wei gently stroked it, letting the little mantis's claws, capable of cutting through gold and jade, scratch him.

Don't let their small size fool you; their strength is by no means questionable.

Li Wei witnessed them tearing apart a level-three supernatural creature.

In other words, these little mantises initially possessed strength roughly equivalent to level three.

What does this mean?

When a legendary pure-blooded dragon is hatched, it is only at level five, or at most level six.

Therefore, Livy was overjoyed to have found a treasure.

He knew these mantises were anything but simple!

He had never seen such an awesome alien insect in his entire life.

Compared to them, the Heavenly Crystal Dragon Ants are just little brothers.

Even the [Calamity Black Ant], which is ranked number one on the insect list of the Entomology School, is no match for this Golden Knife Master.

The mother praying mantis will take care of her offspring on her own for a period of time, and Li Wei did not separate the mother and her children.

In the future, he will carefully raise the little mantis and help it multiply and grow stronger.

These can not only revive the entomological school.

It can also take the spiritual school to the next level.

If there are enough of them, Li Wei could even train a legion of Golden Knife Warriors.

A massive army of alien insects, whose strength was at the Yuanhun level, was unstoppable.

It sounds exciting!

Of course, the Creator maintains balance.

The growth of this alien insect certainly won't be fast.

Li Wei wasn't sure how many of them would successfully grow up.

He could only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

A month later.

In the land of Flaming Mountain, dragons gather.

"Congratulations to Boss Black Lotus on advancing to level seven!"

"The Heavenly Lotus Dragon General is mighty!"

"What do you mean by the strongest sub-dragon species?!"

The simple-minded dragons have also learned to be tactful through long-term interaction with humans.

The compliments were increasingly exaggerated.

Now, the Black Lotus Beast has reached a height of one thousand meters, and it is becoming increasingly powerful.

In the past, it might have been a little smug.

It’s different in the past.

Look at the Dragon Palace, what kind of demons and monsters are there?

There are many level eight extraordinary creatures, and five pure-blooded dragons!

My own strength is simply not enough to compete.

I have to reach level eight as soon as possible! The Black Lotus Beast kept reminding itself.

As the Scroll King of the Dragon Palace.

The "Black Lotus Spirit," representing self-discipline, has always inspired everyone to grow.

Not long after, the Three-Eyed One also advanced to the seventh level of complete form.

To Li Wei's surprise, this guy still had three eyes even after his promotion.

He had thought he could grow back to be four-eyed.

The three-eyed guy said this was fine too.

Even with only three eyes, it can see the omnipresent radiance of the Dragon King!

There's absolutely no need for a fourth eye!

After reaching level seven, the three-eyed creature finally caught the eye of the female shrimp dragon.

Before long, the two dragons began to dangle together.

Li Wei is just waiting to have a litter of baby four-eyed shrimp.

Dragon scale fruit benefits from various supplements.

And the little fairies took meticulous care of them.

The members of the Dragon Palace have all grown up smoothly over the years.

The Vampire Dragon, Infant Dragon, and Raging Electric Dragon Eel have all reached the peak of level six.

Thunderstorm Wolf Dragon, Blue Flag Fish Dragon, and Blazing Scale Dragon are all level 6 late-game monsters.

The Golden Spear is at its peak at level seven, and level eight is within reach.

Other sub-dragon species have all made progress.

The improvement of pure-blooded dragons such as Ash Dragon and Fairy Banyan Dragon is relatively slow.

It takes thousands of years for them to reach adulthood.

Li Wei no longer expected them to act as his henchmen.

At that time, as long as he was still alive, he was already a legend.

In the early days, he collected dragons primarily to make use of them.

As time goes by, our mindset changes.

Utilization is one aspect, but the other is genuine passion.

Thinking back to his past life, his favorite TV program.

It's about the animal world, the relationship between humans and nature.

The myriad of wondrous creatures are also a form of romance.

……

Time flies like an arrow, and time flies like an arrow.

Five years later.

Nora year 975.

Star Castle Travel has been sailing for 45 years.

Through the Ash Knights, Li Wei had been keeping track of their progress.

To date, the tour group has saved three medium-sized civilizations and four small civilizations.

This includes 13 level-six powerhouses and 2 level-seven powerhouses from various races.

The disasters that these civilizations encountered were also diverse.

There are natural disasters, such as the Dark Rift.

Human-caused disasters, dark pirates, meaningless wars, etc.

Of course, the two most important sources of all evil are...

One is an evil god, and the other is a demon.

"Evil god" is a broad term.

It may be some evil deity in the astral plane, indeed a level ten being.

It could also be a powerful being from some material plane impersonating a god.

These "false gods" do not actually possess level ten strength.

For example, the "sea god" of the sea creatures.

The cultivation and strengthening of evil gods often cannot be separated from the sacrifice of living beings.

Every year, many weak civilizations perish in such undeserved calamities.

What the Ash Knights encountered was just the tip of the iceberg.

Under the radiance of the Star Fortress, all these demons and monsters were swept away.

Of course, some might have powerful backgrounds, such as having a level 10 figure backing them up.

Star Fortress wouldn't confront them head-on, so they had no choice but to give up.

In just a few decades, they have gathered so many powerful individuals.

This is much faster than training a level six expert yourself.

Most of these civilizations were driven to desperation.

They are relatively easy to control.

The Wizarding Council saw how well the Pan-Dimensional Salvation Plan was working.

They immediately increased their investment in the Star Fortress Project.

This caused the plan to change rapidly, far exceeding Li Wei's initial estimates.

With ample funding and talent support, the mechanical school of thought is evolving and transforming every year.

As the helmsman and pioneer of this great ship, Hermann's strength has increased rapidly.

Next, we will strive towards the realm of "One in a Thousand".

I reached level nine, [Immortality of Consciousness].

He will undergo his biggest transformation yet.

At that time, Li Wei could not imagine how powerful he would be.

The combat strength of the mechanical school cannot be quantified using universal standards.

……

On this day, after performing "The Changing World".

As usual, Li Wei scanned the Ancient Dragon Continent using the Mind Network.

Suddenly, his expression changed.

"Heim's Soul... only a little over two hundred years ago, that's too fast."

Not long after, Heim arrived at the Imperial Palace.

"Teacher, I've become a primordial spirit."

"Congratulations, you may be the fastest person to achieve the Soul Realm since the Nora Era."

"Really? I hadn't thought about it. It just felt like things were going to fall into place, and it was time for a breakthrough."

"You've completed your apprenticeship. From now on, you'll have to explore the path of truth on your own. I can't teach you anything more now. What are your plans for the future?"

"I want to stay on the Ancient Dragon Continent to teach and cultivate at the same time."

Heim's answer surprised Li Wei slightly.

He thought Heim would find an excuse to leave the Ancient Dragon Continent.

After all, he had always suspected Heim's legendary reincarnation.

Heim stayed here, presumably to find shelter during his vulnerable period.

"Sure, you can go to the Witch's House. You're an apothecary too, so once Triss comes out of seclusion, you can learn medicine making from her."

"OK."

Heim's deep blue eyes remained completely calm.

More than two hundred years have passed, and he is still the same.

Perhaps this is what makes geniuses different.

Few people knew that Heim had ascended to the primordial spirit realm, and no ceremony was held.

Only Li Wei, his parents, and a few high-ranking officials knew about it.

A primordial spirit that has existed for over two hundred years is simply too astonishing.

Li Wei lamented that times had changed.

He then continued his spiritual practice, awaiting his younger brother's reply.

……

The Witch's House.

Triss has been in seclusion for decades.

Before she knew it, she was about to enter the second millennium of her life.

Being able to advance to the eighth ring at around two thousand years old with 44 witch marks was already beyond her expectations.

Keep in mind that she hasn't yet refined the [Wheel of the Sea Kingdom], this wondrous artifact of the Sun.

After reaching the eighth ring, her talent will undergo another qualitative leap.

She is now quite confident in advancing to the ninth ring.

After the eighth ring, she has two thousand years to prepare.

And in a wizard tower next to Triss.

The Wind Witch has just ended a ten-year period of seclusion.

As a veteran eighth-ring wizard.

Before the bloody battle even began, she had already refined several rare items from the Wind God sequence.

With the opening of the Bloodbath Shop, she gradually perfected this system of rare items.

Before going into seclusion, she chose what she considered to be her lucky day.

I opened my random Sunday Wonders blind box.

In the end, he succeeded on his first try and obtained the rare artifact, the Flute of the Wind God.

This wondrous object has now been fully refined.

Her spiritual power is one step closer to the eighth ring of perfection.

She was already a top genius, and now she possesses the complete [Wind God Body].

This is truly "divine assistance"!

She wasn't very confident about advancing to the ninth ring.

Now we can say we have a plan in mind.

Thinking of this, she felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

Time has proven her right.

Since joining the Ancient Dragon Continent, everything seems to be moving in a positive direction.

He and his eldest daughter grew stronger and stronger, and they even found a Blood Knight who was a promising prospect.

Another exceptionally talented little daughter was born.

All of this feels somewhat unreal, like a dream.

She always heard what some of her seniors said.

Individuals have their luck, and groups have their fortune.

From the current perspective, the Ancient Dragon Continent is a group possessing great fortune.

All of this is undoubtedly related to the illustrious and powerful Twilight Palace Master.

With the Wind God Body fully assembled, she possessed a quasi-elemental holy body.

She called it the "Qi Wandering in the Void Body".

She also possesses a powerful wind god projection and a companion spirit, the feathered serpent.

This makes her true strength no less than that of an eighth-ring perfect wizard.

Below level nine, safety is assured.

In recent years, she has rarely hunted demons in order to protect the organization.

His battle achievements are not many among eighth-ring wizards.

It can only be said that it barely passed the official passing grade.

She felt it was time to make a comeback and climb the charts again.

She is confident that she will achieve a good ranking in the years to come.

Exchange for more rare items to lay the most solid foundation for advancing to the ninth ring!

After inquiring about this matter with the Lord of Twilight Palace, Li Wei readily agreed.

In fact, the security capabilities of the Ancient Dragon Continent are saturated at this stage of the blood war.

Don't mention so many level 8 guardians.

The Sky Dome and the Demon-Repelling System alone are enough to deal with level eight demons.

Therefore, Li Wei doesn't impose too many restrictions on the members' demon-hunting activities.

Without taking the initiative, it's difficult to earn battle merits by staying confined to the Ancient Dragon Continent.

As long as we ensure that people take turns on duty and that there are always people on the Ancient Dragon Continent, that's fine.

Upon opening today's news, a piece of good news caught Wendy's eye.

[Recently, Ms. Vivirana successfully advanced to the rank of Grand Wizard, obtained a seat in the Grand Council, and assumed the position of Deputy Director of the Bureau of Alien Affairs, with the title "Blue Ocean Walker." The former Deputy Director, "Golden Walker," voluntarily resigned from the position due to personal reasons.]

Wendy's face lit up with joy; she was genuinely happy for the old witch.

"She has finally been promoted to Grand Wizard."

Since the first witch established the Witch's House.

In the past 300,000 years, fewer than ten people have been promoted to Grand Wizard.

The last time someone became a great wizard was 30,000 years ago.

The decline of the Witch's House is also due to this reason:

There's no one in the central government.

Some powerful top organizations, such as the Seven Water Towers.

Basically, every era has had a level nine powerhouse in the center.

Even the legendary wizard Canghai Yizhe was born in the Seven Water Tower.

This results in a huge gap in the foundation and influence of top organizations.

Wendy immediately sent the lady a congratulatory message.

Although the Witch's House has been merged into the Ancient Dragon Continent, the old feelings remain.

With this relationship, the Old Witch can also take care of some things in the Ancient Dragon Continent.

……

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Li Wei also saw the news that the old witch had been promoted to Grand Wizard.

However, what he cared about more was that Golden Walker had resigned voluntarily.

"This old man was probably fired, not resigned voluntarily. The official announcement was just to save face for the Grand Wizard, after all, the Letney family was once a hero in the pioneering war, just like Norn City."

Li Wei also immediately sent his congratulations to the old witch.

The latter indicated that Li Wei could visit the continent of Solon when he had time.

Every great wizard can have a private mansion there.

They can also attend lectures by legendary wizards.

They enjoy many privileges.

Before returning to the Warp, the Grand Wizard must also travel to the Central Realm.

However, now that it has returned, and with the bloody battle underway, this tradition is also evolving with the times.

As long as you ensure you don't miss important parliamentary meetings and diligently fulfill your duties as a high priest, that's sufficient.

A month later.

Levi, along with Elena and Wendy, went to visit the old witch.

Elena was once a flower witch, one of the witches.

……

The continent of Solon.

Inside a quiet mansion.

The old witch was in high spirits, as if she had been reborn.

"Congratulations on your advancement to Grand Wizard, senior. With a human body, you are on par with demigods, and your lifespan is six thousand years."

Li Wei sincerely congratulates you.

"Thank you for your visit, Palace Master. You've also reached the eighth ring of perfection... That's truly terrifying."

The old witch exclaimed in genuine amazement.

If she remembered correctly, Li Wei had only been at the eighth ring level for less than three hundred years...

Looking at myself, it has been almost two thousand years since I reached the eighth ring.

In fact, if it weren't for the rare medicine that extended her life by 500 years in her early years, she would have been in a completely different situation.

She may be nearing the end of her life and won't be able to complete the ninth ring.

She was well aware of the difficulties of entering the country after the eighth ring road.

Wendy smiled wryly: "Yeah, I remember when I was on the eighth ring, Li Wei had only just reached the sixth ring... Now he's already surpassed me."

Li Wei said, "I was just lucky and caught up with the new era."

No blood war provides as many resources and artifacts of truth.

He might have to spend several decades or even a hundred years to achieve the perfect eight-ring design...

After all, his most important resource location is actually the Dark Tower.

After exchanging pleasantries for a moment, Li Wei said:

"I can rest assured that you will manage the affairs of the alien races from now on."

The old witch naturally understood the meaning behind Li Wei's words.

"If you have any matters related to other races, you can come to me, as long as they are legal and reasonable."

Before their departure, Li Wei and his companions presented their gifts, but the old witch politely declined them.

The two women chatted with their former leader for a long time before leaving with Li Wei.

After returning to the Ancient Dragon Continent, Wendy bid farewell to everyone and embarked on a demon-hunting journey.

Blood Knight is taking care of Saifa at home.

Although he is very strong, he is far inferior to Wendy, and he would only be a hindrance when hunting demons together.

Time flies so fast.

Saifa is almost sixty years old.

She recently achieved the third level of perfection in the three-ring system, and her knight level is also level three.

The wizard's nickname is "Wind Chaser Witch," and the knight's nickname is "Jade Phoenix Knight."

As the child of the wind element and possessor of the Jade Kirin bloodline.

She is one of the members on Li Wei's key watch list.

Before he advanced to the Yuanhun realm, he would also arrange for some people to protect him in secret.

Most of the children born to the Eighteen Riders were outstanding.

They are the hope and backbone of the organization's future.

They've grown up, and the eighteen riders can now semi-retired as "elders."

From now on, just focus on your cultivation and improve your spiritual level.

……

Six months later.

Windrunner Lisa has successfully advanced to the Yuanhun realm.

He has been cultivating for only two hundred and fifty years.

As a top genius, and born in such an era.

This speed is average.

After acquiring the Yuanhun, Lisa also began to go out to hunt demons, train herself, and earn battle merits.

There are so many amazing items waiting for her to exchange; if she doesn't work hard now, when will she?

I believe it won't be long before she makes a name for herself on the Level 7 Demon Slayer Ranking.

……

one year later.

Somewhere on the Ancient Dragon Continent.

A giant beast, resembling both an ape and a lion, with wings and covered in dragon scales, hovered in the sky.

It was surrounded by fiery red liquid, and looked extraordinary.

With his thick, ape-like arms, he also held a steel rod, which he wielded with great force.

A mid-stage level seven black beast descended from the void, roaring as it arrived.

The two colossal beasts clashed and fought fiercely.

Blood Knight, Goddess Knight, Golden Lion Knight, and other relatives and friends of Emperor Mu watched nervously.

Li Wei wasn't worried; he could tell that Emperor Mu was fine.

As expected, after a fierce battle...

Emperor Mu's iron rod transformed into a thousand meters long, and with a powerful and heavy blow, he killed the black beast.

Then, the bizarre-looking beast reverted to human form.

"Congratulations, Dad!" Eddie rushed over and hugged his father.

The goddess knight also excitedly hugged her husband and son.

"Great, the organization has gained another level seven general."

The Blood Knight sighed.

Even the Ash Knights, who were traveling far in the Dark Lands, watched the battle via projection.

"Emperor Mu, have you decided on a name yet?"

Emperor Mu looked at Li Wei and said:

"I believe the commander has already thought of a name for my breathing technique in his dreams."

Li Wei coughed and said seriously:

"How about we call it the 'Zhu Yan Breathing Method'?"

He explained in detail to the members about Zhu Yan in his dream.

Upon hearing this, everyone felt it was a good fit.

Li Wei originally wanted to choose "The Lion Ape," but felt it was too hasty.

"Zhu Yan, good, it sounds like a very mysterious mythical beast."

Emperor Mu praised it repeatedly.

The name was too abstract for him.

But the fact that the regimental commander obtained it must have had a deeper meaning.

It just takes time for you to understand it.

"Let Emperor Mu get some rest first. Take some time to celebrate and relax."

a few days later.

The social gathering was a success.

There weren't many participants, but they were all talented members of various organizations.

Currently, organizations like the Tower of Dawn, the House of Witches, and the Starfire Academy are involved.

There are many excellent single male wizards and female wizards.

Li Wei was quite pleased to see the combination of knights and wizards.

A series of incentive policies have been formulated for this purpose.

Based on research experiments.

The effect of combining a knight and a wizard is greater than the sum of its parts.

It is easier to produce talents with both knight and wizard abilities.

The path of dual cultivation certainly takes more time and is more difficult.

But with a steady and solid foundation, the potential for breakthroughs and the upper limit will be even greater in the later stages.

More roads mean more choices.

Within the same realm, their strength is unparalleled, which is beneficial for advancing on the Demon Slayer Ranking.

It makes it easier to earn more battle merits, since the bloody battle is a long one.

The Ancient Dragon Continent itself also has special reward policies for such special dual cultivation talents.

Give them some initial support.

It's not entirely about survival of the fittest, or social Darwinism.

Such initial difficulties would bury many promising players.

Li Wei also tracks the growth trajectory of outstanding individuals within the organization year-round.

Through more data and experiments.

We have gradually developed a talent cultivation system that is more suitable for the new era.

……

With Mudi's advancement to the seventh rank, only the Golden Lion and the Goddess remained of the old generation of knights.

Golden Lion is currently at the peak of level six, and is advancing towards becoming a senior wizard at the sixth ring.

The goddess is still in the mid-stage of level six, a little short of the late stage.

Li Wei knew she had already worked very hard, but lacked some opportunity and talent.

Judging from the current situation, there shouldn't be any problem for her to be promoted to level seven.

Perhaps knights can then lead wizards.

Let's develop the wizard's innate talents and try another path.

After reaching level seven, with the blessing of knight bloodline, lifespan is slightly longer than that of a regular wizard.

Regardless, reaching the seventh level already puts one far beyond the average person in the world.

Moreover, the goddess does not resist becoming a heroic spirit.

Li Wei could also allow her to live again as a ghost, to accompany Emperor Mu.

Among the middle-generation knights, most have reached the late stage of level six, their peak cultivation level.

The five knights—Dark Moon, Silver Dragon, Hundred Flowers, Thousand Illusions, and Steel Dragon—all chose to evolve.

Everyone wants to give it their all and leave no regrets.

It's done, and it will be passed down for generations.

Even if you fail, you're still a hero.

……

Four years later.

Nora year 980.

Nightmare World.

With the arrival of more "fourth catastrophes".

The realms of Khorne and Blood Rain have been completely taken over by the Black Dragon Territory.

All the cities, large and small, are guarded by the Nightmare Lord of the Black Dragon Territory.

Because of his outsider status, Dream Tower mainly works behind the scenes.

The nominal ruler of both realms is Khorne, the Overlord.

After celebrating his 1400th birthday with Elena, Levi arrived in the territory.

"Khorne, the overlord of this nightmare world, is there anyone who doesn't have a monarch-level backer?"

The Khorne Overlord pondered, "Master, such people are extremely rare. Those without a backer are probably already at the mid or late stage of level nine... Newly promoted overlords will find it difficult to gain a foothold in the Nightmare World, where powerful beings abound."

Li Wei said, "Please keep an eye out for me and let me know if you find anything."

He is now eager to test his limits.

"No problem." Khorne immediately ordered his men to investigate.

Li Wei rewarded it with a large quantity of dragon scale fruit, imperial nectar, and other highly nourishing substances.

Keep it up, and get promoted to level nine soon!

The territory remains safe thanks to the lingering power of the former overlord, Khorne.

But the truth will eventually come out.

Before Li Wei gets promoted, this is the most promising area for a breakthrough.

Moreover, there was another thing that gave Li Wei a headache.

In 270 years, the next once-in-a-millennium locust plague will begin.

This could be a super catastrophe that wipes out an entire world or even a region.

He didn't want to trouble those two legendary wizards if it was a level nine enemy.

If the Black Dragon Territory can overcome this locust plague, it will benefit immensely.

Li Wei went to inspect the territory.

Many of the subordinates recruited early on have already been promoted.

Lust and sloth are both traits possessed by level seven powerhouses.

Nine-Headed Serpent, Butcher, and Big Hammer, these original veterans, have all reached level six by now.

These guys are now core members of the Black Dragon Territory, playing important roles.

Nowadays, I'm not considered an "outsider".

After several battles, through the large-scale incorporation of Black Dragon Territory, there are now 57 level 6 experts, 11 level 7 experts, and 2 level 8 experts, namely the Cholera King and the Khorne Overlord.

This is a force powerful enough to sweep away many top wizarding organizations.

If necessary.

They can also be summoned by Livy and travel to the real world to fight in their true forms.

Of course, if you die over there, you're really dead.

Even if one is reborn with the same concept of fear, one will still be a new individual.

Back at the Imperial Palace, Little Pink summoned him, carrying a letter.

[Brother, this is a list I've compiled of all level 8+ undead in the first eight levels of Hell. Please take a look. Enclosed are soul stones and other supplies.]

Li Wei sent Xiao Fen back and also arranged a ring of cultivation resources for his second brother.

He opened the list of the dead and examined it carefully.

……

Meanwhile, in the Nightmare World.

The Pale Great Domain, the City of Glau.

The Skinner looked at the devastated territory and the brutal deaths of his subordinates.

"Who did this?!"

This late-game level 6 Nightmare Lord is one of the Skinners' major sources of wealth.

It took out a special gold coin and was chanting something.

Then a blurry image began to appear:

A phantom clad in demonic armor and surrounded by demonic blades is wreaking havoc.

On either side of it, there are two terrifying ghostly figures.
