Wizard: Grinding experience starting with Knight's Breathing Technique

Chapter 544 The Crimson Emperor Reaches the Ninth Level, Ascends the Throne, Becomes the Lord of the Six Holy Heavens! (1.2 words, requesting monthly votes and subscriptions)

Four years later.

Nora calendar year 1190, Blood War year 978.

Ancient Dragon Continent.

"Ms. Elena, someone has come to visit."

"Are you looking for the Lord of Twilight Palace?"

"Yes, a level nine expert, said to be a good friend of the White Dragon Mountain Lord, who has come here for the establishment of the Nora Council."

Not long after.

A strange-looking alien with a large head and a small body floated in.

Elena exchanged pleasantries with him for a while, then saw the guest off.

Back to the Imperial Palace.

She couldn't help but sigh:

"Being famous is terrifying."

Since the story of Li Wei repeatedly defying the odds and defeating nine ranks began to spread.

Visitors came in an endless stream.

There is a clan leader, and there are lone strongmen.

There are six people at level nine alone.

They were all there to plot the formation of the Nora Council and, incidentally, to meet Li Wei.

At these moments, Elena felt a surge of pride.

Suddenly.

A figure quietly appeared behind Elena.

She smiled.

"You're finally back."

Li Wei held Elena and spoke softly.

"I'm back. I won't leave Nora until I reach level nine."

"Are you ready?"

"Yes."

"Great, this day has finally come."

After reaching level nine, any extraordinary individual from any path can rival a demigod.

They are living legends, beings at the pinnacle of the multiverse pyramid.

Below the true God, above all living beings.

"Then go and rest. You must be tired after fighting so many battles in a row. You need to recuperate before you can advance to level nine," Elena said.

Unexpectedly, Li Wei carried her into the palace.

"I'm not tired. By the way, why aren't you wearing that dress?"

"What kind of formal dress do you wear at home...?"

"Go put it on quickly."

……

Three months later.

Elena escaped the clutches of evil, her face flushed, and went to Triss to learn medicine making.

Li Wei then dealt with the backlog of issues first.

First, all visitors must be met and given a statement.

This demonstrates their gentle and easygoing nature, making it easier to promote friendship among different ethnic groups.

Those level nine experts were summoned by Li Wei to gather together and get to know each other.

Many of them were introduced by the White Dragon Mountain Master.

The extent of this person's connections amazed Li Wei.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Supreme Council, the Lord of White Dragon Mountain also holds a very high position.

In this formation of the Nora Council, it ranks relatively high.

I'm sure I can get a decent job next.

It was six months later when I finally finished all those social engagements.

Li Wei visited various organizations and found that they were all making steady progress.

The fastest growing was undoubtedly the newly established Bailong Chamber of Commerce.

Due to the siphon effect, powerful individuals at level six and above flock here.

These people did not actually join the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Similarly, there is no need to make a strict oath.

Therefore, the market is mixed, with both good and bad products.

How to manage is also a science.

Fortunately, Nanate was well-versed in the Sayings of Solon and gained much insight from the ancient and modern sages' sayings and fables that Solon had copied.

Furthermore, having followed the shrewd Lord of White Dragon Mountain, she was no ordinary person. It can be said that Nanate was both a cultivation genius and a managerial talent.

Even a hands-off manager like Li Wei takes it very seriously.

Over the years, key senior executives of various organizations have all performed well.

The Tower Master is almost at the level of "One in a Thousand Machines".

It is expected to reach level eight within a century, and even further.

Zhou Shenghuang gradually honed his skills to reach the peak of the seventh level.

Judging from its lifespan, it shouldn't be difficult for it to reach the eighth level in its lifetime.

But if we want to go any further, the potential has clearly been exhausted.

Zhou Shenghuang also came to terms with it.

It often preaches and guides young talents.

The four members of the Air Clan: Link, Muti, Elena, Victor...

These people represent hope for the future.

Many of them are blessed with great fortune and possess exceptional talent.

Passed down through generations, the path to re-establishing the Primordial Chaos Realm has begun to take shape, and the dawn of enlightenment is already in sight.

Blood Knights, Black Knights, and other high-ranking members of the Twilight Temple also made steady progress.

On the battlefield of bloody battle, they were invincible.

And the organization cultivates those promising talents, the geniuses.

Apart from those who died in war.

Most of them have made rapid progress.

Over the past century, the Ancient Dragon Continent has seen the addition of a total of nine Level 9 powerhouses.

This speed has been dubbed "Gu Long speed" by outsiders.

This is a miracle that is difficult to replicate, given that all the right timing, location, and people were in place.

At first, other wizarding organizations or individuals were surprised.

It's become commonplace now.

Even now, how can they still not understand?

Whether it's the Twilight Palace Master or the Ancient Dragon Continent.

This was born in accordance with the will of the times.

Perhaps, the influence of Sauron's will was also involved.

Therefore, very few fools or forces dare to cause trouble for the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Besides the official sources.

No other top wizarding organization can rival the prestige of the Ancient Dragon Continent.

The few giant dragons used by the Lord of Twilight Palace alone are beyond their reach.

Because of the overlord Khorne, giant dragons such as the Flame King Dragon have been exposed.

Li Wei then stopped hiding them.

The world finally knows.

The person who saved the fire dragon Ace was actually the Twilight Palace Lord who "just happened to be passing by".

Li Wei estimated.

The legendary wizards of the High Council.

They should know that the Three of Gondor are his alternate names.

So there's no point in keeping it a secret anymore.

Since the legendary wizard had no objections, he was no longer afraid.

He found a time to have a long private meeting with the dragons to discuss the next steps.

The Tyrannical Dragon continues to reign supreme in the Nightmare World.

Frosty Dragon guards White Dragon Mountain.

Ancient Mountain Dragon, Molten Gold Dragon, and Flame King Dragon respectively guard the three important places: the Ancient Dragon Empire, the Twilight Temple, and the Giant Beast Paradise.

The dragon corpse demon was given to Triss to guard the witch's house.

In this way...

The ninth-level combat power guarding the Ancient Dragon Continent.

It has become the second largest place in Nora after the continents of Soren and Grey Eagle.

He will be going into seclusion next, so security must be in place.

All the miscellaneous matters were dealt with.

Li Wei arrived at the Thousand Illusions Palace.

The Thousand Illusion Knight's eyes showed a mixture of excitement and nervousness.

"Are you ready?"

"Alright, Commander."

"Let's begin... If you truly perish, I will allow you to continue as a Heroic Spirit, but I believe you won't need it."

"Thank you, Commander."

Waiting for the Thousand Phantom Knights to make their final breakthrough.

Li Wei also found the Silver Dragon Knight who had failed to evolve.

"Commander, I have failed."

Don't be discouraged, you still have time.

"Yes, that's how cultivation is. I've come to terms with it. I recently visited the former homeland of the Silver Mountain Clan in the Northern Territory... Looking back, a thousand years later, I've achieved something unimaginable to my ancestors, enough to bring glory to my family. I have no regrets."

"That's right. Cultivation isn't the only purpose of life. If all else fails, we can find another way to live. We can continue the Silver Mountain family lineage, and one day, a mythical being will emerge. You must believe in the wisdom and talent of future generations!"

……

Two years later.

A bloody battle that lasted 980 years.

Preparations for the Nora Council are in full swing.

He easily resolved the problem of the Azure Scale Clan.

Locus led his people to develop on the ancient dragon continent.

At the invitation of the Supreme Council, the Blue Demon participated in the formation of the council.

Next, Qinggui will become active on the continent of Solon as a councilor.

In this way, even though Li Wei did not participate in politics, he could still know some important matters in advance.

The legendary wizards were well aware of this, but said nothing.

Even the dragons under Li Wei's command received an invitation from the High Council.

Judging from some insider information revealed by the Lord of the Abyss.

All level nine powerhouses, regardless of race, are qualified to become councilors of Nora.

Members of parliament can participate in discussions and decision-making on major issues.

They naturally have a certain say in matters concerning their respective ethnic groups or their own interests.

Of course, when it comes to matters concerning the overall development of civilization, the decision-making power still rests with the Supreme Council.

Overall, this is a relatively suitable system of civilization for the current situation.

In any case, it's better than inter-ethnic warfare.

If it weren't for the pressure of bloody battles, among so many races, there would be no shortage of enemies.

It was never possible for them to get together.

……

Twilight Temple.

The Thousand Phantom Knights have also successfully completed their evolution.

But then a giant beast, resembling both a fox and a weasel, with nine eyes on its head and nine tails on its back, stood in mid-air. With its slender body and elegant steps, it approached Li Wei, bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you for protecting me, Commander. I have not disappointed you."

"You're welcome, it was nothing."

The giant beast transformed into human form.

The Thousand Illusion Knight chuckled:

"Commander, I need you to give me a name."

"Don't worry, I've already decided. Let's call it Celestial Fox."

"good!"

The Celestial Fox was also a mythical beast in Li Wei's previous life, as described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

Although it differs slightly from the current design of the Thousand Phantom Knights, it is largely the same.

Livy is excluded at this point.

The ninth mythical breathing technique of the Twilight Temple has been born.

The Celestial Fox excels at perception and is especially adept at creating illusions.

It can freely enter and exit the two colossal worlds, the Astral Plane and the Nightmare.

It also has the ability to bring people from the material world into the nightmare world.

In terms of other abilities, they are each unique compared to the Nightmare Dragon.

I believe that the Thousand Phantom Knights will surely shine brightly in the future.

As of now.

Among the middle-generation knights.

Silver Dragon failed.

Both female knights, Qianhuan and Baihua, successfully "landed".

Darkmoon Knight and Steel Dragon Knight still need to work harder.

……

Ancient Banyan Tree Wonderland.

Li Wei finished summarizing the gains from the recent battle.

First was General Iku.

It is at the mid-stage of level nine, and as a member of the Serpent Clan, its physical body is extremely powerful.

The materials you carry can be used for crafting weapons, making medicine, and so on.

Its level-eight rare treasure spear is also of the highest quality.

This is the treasure of the Snake Clan, and even a level nine cultivator can use it, which shows its extraordinary nature.

Of course, Li Wei wouldn't need it.

He will soon reach level nine and be able to forge level nine divine weapons.

Currently, Shadow Blade is also available as a transitional option.

Therefore, this treasure will be offered to knights as the most prized possession of the Twilight Temple for exchange.

In addition, there are various resources collected by Iku as a general.

Li Wei roughly estimated that the total value was around 200 billion taiwan.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Li Wei is not short of money.

In reality, many great wizards don't even have hundreds of billions in wealth.

As a veteran level nine, Iku has long held a high position.

Even after disregarding the offerings to the Holy War Lord, one can still amass enormous wealth.

Now it all benefits Li Wei.

From Li Wei's current perspective, this is a valid point of view.

What can attract his attention are rare items, materials of level nine or above, and treasures.

The sheer number of strange objects is astonishing.

There are 98 Earth and Sky level items, 14 Morning Star level items, and 2 Bright Moon level items.

Yes, this Iku actually possesses 114 Truth Treasures!

The bottles and jars placed in front of Li Wei were full of strange objects.

Most of them are known.

Components of various sequence artifacts make up half of the market.

Many of them had been refined by Li Weiyi or his clones.

The following are worth mentioning:

The wondrous artifact of the bright moon: the aura of the Fire God.

After refining it, five-sevenths of the Holy Infant's Fire God Sequence was completed.

Morning Star Artifact [Symbolic Symbol of the Frost God], Frost God Sequence Progress: 3/7

The wondrous object of the bright moon: the Mountain Serpent Coiling.

This is a rare item for body refinement.

It can temporarily compensate for the deficiencies in Gandalf's wind-elemental body constitution.

The wondrous artifact of the Morning Star: The Scale of the Sea Emperor.

This brings Elena's Poseidon sequence progress to four-fifths.

Among the remaining strange objects.

Li Wei selected several minor, top-quality items that might give rise to auxiliary, companion spirits.

I plan to try my luck after the Ninth Ring Road.

The rest are all placed in the organization's treasury for members to exchange.

There are three types of level nine materials.

The Stone of Gael, the Gold of Hegel, the Stone of Riel.

In this way...

The issue of reforging divine weapons after reaching level nine has also been largely resolved.

Other Protoss warriors, including temples and other fixed assets.

Everything has been handled properly.

have to say.

The Protoss's veteran generals are incredibly wealthy.

In comparison, that Obsidian Clan general was far too poor.

He was clearly a new employee who had just joined the company and hadn't yet gotten any extra benefits.

As for the two angels...

After they fell, two divine crystals were extracted.

As for their divine remains.

After the divine power dissipated, most of the organs rotted.

However, some special ones were preserved.

The armored angel's crab-like shell possesses the characteristic of being "sturdy".

If refined, it can be used as a substitute for [Haigel's Gold].

The scales of the Holy Scale Angel possess the characteristic of [tenacity].

The difference between "strong" and "tough" is only one word, but they are completely different.

Strength refers to the rigidity and hardness of a material.

Toughness is a measure of a material's fatigue strength and toughness.

A perfect magical artifact, a divine weapon.

It must take into account all the properties of various materials to achieve the best results.

Only in this way can it withstand weeds.

Also.

Li Wei's long journey.

Along the way, while traveling through many parts of the world, they also found abundant resources and treasures.

It contains many rare and exotic items.

Because of their mediocre quality, they were all sent to the organization's treasury.

……

one year later.

Li Wei declined most social engagements.

He found a safe place in the open sea and began to live in seclusion.

To advance to the ninth rank, one must inevitably undergo tribulations.

Given his super-mythical qualities, the power of the Calamity is unimaginable.

It's quite normal for the impact to spread over thousands of miles.

Therefore, one cannot choose to go into seclusion in the Ancient Banyan Wonderland or the Ancient Dragon Continent.

He has already arranged for Yan Wanglong to hide in the underwater volcano to protect him.

Elena also moved the Wizard Tower to this location.

For demons below level nine to invade, it's practically suicide.

Level 9 and above will be hindered by the Flame King Dragon.

It was enough for the Dragonflame Wizard or other legendary wizards to sense the danger here.

……

Seven years later.

Nora calendar year 1200, Blood War year 988.

There are still 12 years until the Nora Council is officially established.

Because of its geographical proximity to the continent of Solon.

Level 9 alien powerhouses are becoming increasingly common in the skies above the Ancient Dragon Continent.

On the grand battlefield of bloodshed, the demons' tactics have also changed.

Wizards who spend most of their time hunting demons can sense it.

The frequency of high-level demons of level eight and above being dispatched has decreased.

The invasions of various cannon fodder demons and guerrilla harassment remain frequent.

This is the calm before the storm.

Meanwhile, the demons are also gathering strength.

Some people predict that...

The 1000th year of the bloody war, which is also the day the Nora Council held its first meeting.

The devil will surely take this opportunity to wreak havoc.

……

Gondor.

Fire Dragon's Heavenly Craft.

Victor, the Holy Infant, and a group of highly paid Yuanhun-level artifact crafters and magic array wizards were busy at work. All the modules for the Eighteen Levels of Hell magic array had been completed. Now, the final assembly and refining would take place.

A month later.

A dazzling brilliance shot straight into the sky.

Eighteen kinds of world-destroying scenes appeared all around.

Flags of various colors spun endlessly.

"It's done."

The Holy Infant exhaled, reached out and beckoned, and all the flags flew into his palm.

The Eighteen Levels of Hell Formation, although it is an eight-ring formation.

However, its power is enough to trap a level nine expert for a period of time.

Most importantly, its foundation is in place.

After advancing to the ninth ring, one only needs to use the methods of a great wizard to upgrade in succession.

It doesn't require much time to refine.

The cost of this super magic array is close to 20 billion.

This was thanks to the abundant material reserves on the Ancient Dragon Continent, which saved a lot of money.

If we were to purchase all the materials from scratch, the minimum would be 80 billion.

It can be said that this magic array has reached the pinnacle of the eighth stage.

It's much better than the set that Ms. Jasmine gave to Li Wei.

Li Wei simply couldn't get used to using other people's magic arrays.

Inside a sealed room.

The image of Eternal Star Abyss appeared in the palm of the Holy Infant, rotating gently.

Before I went into seclusion, I entrusted the Wizard Tower to him.

He murmured, "There's one last step: to refine the magic circle into the wizard tower. That way, activating the wizard tower will automatically activate the magic circle, and the energy of the wizard tower can also supply the magic circle to operate, forming a perfect cycle."

Victor said, "We should act without delay and try to finish refining it before we leave the pass."

In addition, Li Wei recently obtained the Galewood.

The two will also be responsible for refining it into the Wizard Tower to perfect the inner world space.

……

the other side.

Gandalf was also busy.

Some time ago, he had already refined the [Body of the Wild God].

My mental strength has actually increased by 1100 points.

It should be noted that Li Wei used the Flame Emperor's Sword to synthesize the Proof of Elements.

It only increased by 1000 points.

This shows that Sauron personally placed this body-refining artifact into the treasury.

That's quite extraordinary!

It has been less than a century since it entered the Eighth Ring Road.

Gandalf has already refined two Sun Artifacts.

In addition, there are other rare and precious items that have been refined.

His cultivation level is only a thousand points away from reaching the eighth-ring senior level.

Of course, mental strength is only one aspect.

For a body-refining wizard, the foundation still lies in refining enough body-refining runes.

Otherwise, it would be insufficient to unleash the power of the current realm.

Gandalf exhaled a deep breath and looked at his newly transformed body.

Hundreds of millions of dragon and snake runes flowed around, exuding an aura of ancient wilderness.

Even if he turns off those runes.

Gandalf's body still exudes an ancient aura.

Its vital energy and blood are as abundant as those of the dragon race.

This is the most powerful function brought by the [Body of the Wild God]:

[The Divine Body of the Wild God]!

This is the most powerful acquired physique ever created in the history of wizards.

Those who possess this constitution.

One can obtain extraordinary power at the Yuanhun level without cultivation.

They can ascend to the heavens to fight dragons and descend to the abyss to slay sea monsters!

Gandalf now appears to be a human.

In reality, they are a completely different kind of creature born powerful.

This is fundamentally different from the methods used by wizards and knights to cultivate themselves.

He fused the [Desolate Divine Body] and the [Dragon Elephant Divine Body].

A super-powerful body-refining talent, unprecedented in history, was born.

He called it the "Ancient Divine Body".

Gandalf no longer knew where the limits of his talent lay.

All he knew was that...

With little change in his cultivation level, he could easily unleash a 150-level Dragon Elephant attack.

In extreme cases, the number can reach as high as two hundred dragons and elephants.

After advancing to the eighth ring, his strength truly improved every day.

His cultivation progress was originally slightly slower than that of the Holy Infant and Victor.

Now, they've actually surpassed them.

He then went to the Nightmare World to spar with the Red King and the Lope brothers.

Before long, they achieved a complete victory!

Legendary creatures of the same realm no longer pose a challenge to him.

Perhaps only mythical creatures of the same realm can engage in a truly exhilarating battle.

The title "King of Body Refinement".

He can finally accept it with a clear conscience.

The "Body of the Wild God" also greatly enhanced Gandalf's fire affinity talent.

It also acquired a new companion spirit.

But then a tall, imposing humanoid figure stood silently.

It was dressed in animal skins and exuded an ancient aura.

His muscles were like coiled dragons, and his eyes were as deep as mountains and seas.

【荒】, that is the name of the companion spirit.

It was so strong that it could go toe-to-toe with Gandalf.

His true combat strength is no less than that of an ordinary senior wizard with eight rings.

Even the Black Dragon, which is also a Sun-level spirit creature, is inferior to it.

"Next is the Thousand-Eyed Titan Body Refining Method. After fusing it, it will become the ultimate body refining method combining the four ancient elements of earth, fire, wind, and water, and then it will be born."

With his current talent, before he advances to the ninth ring...

Then this feat can be accomplished.

……

The Dark Land.

Beside the largest Demon Mountain, another Abyss Well began to emerge.

Pazuzu's eyes narrowed, but a smile appeared on her lips.

A towering fire demon emerged from the well.

Sulgard, the Destroyer of All Realms.

Pazuzu's old colleague and old rival.

Beside it were four level 10 Flame Demons.

This includes "Flame Tyrant Carthus".

This lord from the 167th floor of the abyss arrived at the very beginning of the bloody battle.

Not long ago, I personally went to pick up my former leader and bring him back.

Abyssal demons come in countless varieties.

Among them, the most famous and the one with the most powerful members.

It is the Fire Demon, the Flame Demon.

As the Balrog Emperor, Sulgard's prestige remains.

Therefore, even those level 10 fire demons followed its lead.

"You've finally arrived."

"Heh, looks like you can't win Nora over without me."

"I'm not going to argue with you about this. Let's take down Nora together first."

"It's settled then. I, Sulgard, act according to my own will and will not follow your orders."

"Do as you please, just fight Nora together as agreed. Even if you go looking for trouble with Amon now, I won't care." Pazuzu revealed a provocative smile.

Surgard ignored it.

Its gaze swept across the ever-expanding world, and it murmured to itself.

"If I were to insert the Sword of Annihilation into Nora, my strength would likely recover to level ten in the blink of an eye. It's not impossible that I could even advance further in the future. It's truly something to look forward to."

It suddenly remembered something and asked, "What is the current situation of the Twilight Palace Master? This person actually disrupted my plans before; he's just a newborn calf that doesn't fear tigers."

"This person is extremely difficult to deal with. We have tried many methods, but due to the special care given to him by Eamon and others, we have been unable to kill him. Now he has grown to the point where he can kill a level nine with his level eight body. His power is established and it will be difficult to erase him."

"An eighth-level reversal against a ninth-level attack? That's got some of the original's style back then."

"Didn't you do that using a supreme treasure?"

"Nonsense, even without the most precious treasure, I can still do it."

"Heh, then you can find an opportunity to fight him."

Pazuzu loves to watch the drama unfold.

They wish Surgard would die again.

The underworld enters the game.

If this old man dies, there's no way he can be brought back to life.

That way, control of the Fire Demon race can be handed over to other Flame Demons.

Sulgard sneered, "Your attempt to provoke me won't work. I won't act rashly until I reach level ten. Remember to relinquish your position as deputy commander-in-chief, and I'll show you what a true destroyer of realms looks like!"

"Very well, the day the Nora Council is officially established will be the day our second all-out war begins. I hope you will not disappoint me."

the other side.

The Shadow Fiend Queen, with one arm severed, sat on her throne.

Its arm had previously been shattered by Emon.

Centuries have passed, and it still hasn't grown.

They claimed that the damage was to the very source and was difficult to recover from.

A shadow demon floated in and said:

"Your Majesty, according to our scouts, the Twilight Palace Master disappeared shortly after appearing on the Ancient Dragon Continent. He may be in seclusion at the ninth level of cultivation. Should we send someone to keep an eye on him?"

"Judging by the time, it's about time. This is our last chance. Send [Shadow Swordsman Margot] to him. Tell Margot that even if it means death, he must ensure that the Twilight Palace Lord fails his tribulation! That way, he will crumble without a fight, becoming a fallen genius, and will no longer be a threat!"

……

The dark void near Nora.

The two sat there, their bodies covered in dust.

One of them was ethereal and slender, with a dagger strapped to its thigh.

The other was burly, radiating purple light, with an arrogant gaze.

These two were none other than the ninth-level experts of the Council of Myriad Races, who were responsible for assassinating the Lord of Twilight Palace.

Void Clan - Void Departure and Amethyst Clan - Banggu.

Their gazes were fixed on the ancient dragon continent within the crystal walls.

"I think we should just charge in. Anyway, that legendary wizard in the Wizarding Council can only detect level nine demons, not us. Didn't Dagon successfully kidnap the Fire Dragon Master before? Surely we can do it too?"

"No, the wizards must have sent a high wizard to lie in wait nearby, just waiting for us to fall into their trap."

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"Keep waiting! If he really advances to level nine, he will inevitably have to undergo tribulation. The demons will definitely launch a large-scale attack. At that time, we can take the risk and try to kill him directly in the tribulation."

"But intruding into someone else's misfortune might also backfire, triggering our own misfortune. Wouldn't that be a losing proposition?"

"It's alright, I have a Void Clan secret technique that can mitigate this risk as much as possible."

"That sounds like a feasible plan."

"Banggu, are you mentally prepared for your demise?"

"Of course! This is the sacred mission entrusted to me by the Amethyst Saint. As long as I can drag the Twilight Palace Lord down with me, it's worth dying for!"

"That's good... We've been driven to the brink by Nora, and we have no choice but to fight with our backs against the wall. For our people, for the Council of All Races, let's fight with all our might!"

……

Spiritual practice knows no time.

Eleven years have passed.

Nora calendar year 1211, Blood War year 999.

Eighteen years have passed since Li Wei went into seclusion.

The Witch's House.

Triss opened her eyes, her aura rising even higher.

She has already reached the advanced level of the Eighth Ring after only two hundred years of advancement.

The Sun's Wonder, the Wheel of the Sea, played a crucial role in its success.

Not long ago, she obtained another rare artifact, the Bright Moon, and refined it.

She purchased this rare item from a powerful lone wolf from another race through the White Dragon Merchant Guild.

The price was an eighth-level rare treasure.

Therefore, she spent billions to acquire the rare treasure and then traded it to it.

Then I owed Li Wei a little bit of money...

However, she received a considerable share of the profits from Gandalf's pharmaceutical business.

It should be able to pay off within a few hundred years.

Upon arriving in the Nightmare World, Triss gently raised her hand.

A semi-transparent phantom of a chessboard from the sea appeared out of thin air.

Five companion spirits, including the Sea King, the Sea God's Chariot, and the High Priest, form chess pieces that roam freely across a vast, illusory chessboard.

They were either primarily offensive, primarily defensive, or provided cover for escape. All units were well-organized, their formations resembling those of a real battlefield!

The most striking.

It was the phantom of a military formation consisting of thousands of people.

They were all dressed in black armor and rode sea beasts.

Although their individual physical strength is relatively weak, they are exceptionally brave and fierce.

Their collective action resembled a long, black dragon.

They can form alliances, charge into battle, and are capable of anything.

In critical moments, one can sacrifice others to save generals, even if it means total self-destruction.

This is the companion spirit creature, the Black Cavalry!

Therefore, Triss called the novelty "Queen's Gambit".

In the Poseidon sequence of artifacts.

The quality level is not that important.

In this complete game of chess.

Even the lowest-ranking soldier plays an important role.

No one is dispensable!

"Next, only one last type of Queen's Chess remains."

As she murmured, Triss's expression subtly changed.

She rose high into the sky, gazing into the distance.

The skyline, spanning thousands of miles in diameter, was dyed crimson.

The sea surface was boiling, and white smoke cascaded down like a waterfall.

A burly figure stood between heaven and earth, sword in hand.

It was Li Wei.

He wasn't wearing that classic black armor.

Instead, they wore robes of flames and armor of lava.

"The ninth level of calamity... this day has finally arrived."

Suddenly.

Three more figures quietly appeared beside Triss.

One of them, with a cigarette ring dangling from his mouth, looked carefree and unrestrained.

Two other ladies were also very elegant and had an extraordinary presence.

Her face lit up with delight: "Hello, everyone."

These people are all old acquaintances, members of the Twilight Squad.

"Haha, there's been no fighting lately, so I thought I'd take a look around."

Duke Rumont wore a nonchalant expression.

"Come on, you just miss Li Wei, don't you?" Ms. Jasmine laughed.

"Nonsense, I just want to see what a level nine knight's great calamity looks like, to broaden my horizons. Don't forget, I'm also a member of the Twilight Temple! Although I'm only level two, I'm still a genuine knight... a titled Aura Knight!"

Duke Rumen pointed to the Twilight Temple emblem on his chest.

"Alright, let's hide properly and not interfere with Li Wei's tribulation. The command center said there will be changes in this tribulation. There are definitely demons or assassins from the Council of Ten Thousand Races lurking in the darkness. The ninth-level tribulation is extremely turbulent and cannot be hidden from them," said the Ice Sea Witch.

"Heh, if they dare to come, our Twilight Squad will join forces to kill them. It's been a long time since we've fought, and we're getting itchy." Duke Rumon's eyes were dangerous.

……

Crimson flames filled the sky.

Li Wei opened his eyes, his aura reaching its peak.

He has 54 divine runes running like long dragons through his limbs and bones.

Each one represents countless divine palaces and the true forms of the Crimson Emperor.

The secret of power and the true words of fire permeate it.

They are like the basic code, building this body full of power and fire!

Bloodline Dharma Body, Blood Source True Armor, Blood and Flesh Divine Palace, Bloodline Secret Words, Crimson Emperor Domain, Solar Storm... Along the way, many abilities and spell-like skills have been born.

They all resonated and merged in front of Li Wei.

Simplify and return to the basics.

All means must ultimately lead to the unity of the nine!

At Li Wei's heart, the seed of his bloodline, which had accompanied him for over 1,600 years, began an unprecedented transformation.

It sprouted fleshy branches that spread to Li Wei's internal organs.

It is modifying Li Wei's body in a way that better suits Li Wei's wishes.

At this moment, his life was being elevated.

An endless stream of power surged into his body.

They seem to be instinctive, transcending the constraints of cultivation or methods.

It was as if Li Wei was born to be this powerful.

He felt like he was about to become one of those mythical beings born powerful.

There's no need to even look at the long-lost [Lorraine Crystal].

Li Wei knew that from this moment on...

His human bloodline percentage is already very low.

He is closer to a dragon... or some kind of more powerful creature.

After all, the Crimson Emperor Dragon is a creature that does not exist.

It was Livy who created it through the bloodline of powerful beings.

It is given the definition of "dragon".

This transformation did not last long.

Li Wei then encountered some kind of inexplicable bottleneck.

Rumble!

Flames burned, exploded, and muffled thunder roared.

Beneath the crimson sky, invisible forces capable of shattering everything are converging.

Li Wei's eyes were like those of a furnace as he gazed solemnly at the high sky.

He could vaguely see a red world that was both real and illusory.

It lay across Nora, radiating endless light and heat.

This is a sight that only those about to become level nine knights can see.

A flesh and blood staircase made of flames and dragon scales leads straight to the heavens.

Where the staircase connects to the crimson world, there stands an ancient crimson gate.

A lifelike red dragon is carved on the door!

After entering this door.

His level of life can then be completely sublimated.

He can also truly reach level nine.

Without further hesitation, he stepped onto the stairs.

As soon as you go up there, you feel an immense force like Mount Tai pressing down on you.

He lost his balance and almost fell.

His bones cracked and his divine palace roared before he finally stabilized.

"So this is the beginning of the tribulation... Well then, let's begin!"

……

at the same time.

From other people's perspective.

Li Wei took steps through the void, not knowing where he was going.

His figure gradually became ethereal.

It's as if they're about to disappear from this world, leaving them far behind.

Elena held Triss's hand, her palms sweaty.

Triss could sense her nervousness and teased her:

"Don't worry, just watch carefully. After all, you'll have to go through this too. Don't be completely clueless when the time comes. With Li Wei paving the way ahead, those of you who come after should have an easier time getting promoted."

Elena nodded.

"I'm not worried... He'll be fine. He's already completed the level eight reverse slash to level nine, so what's this level nine tribulation?"

Duke Rumen was equally focused, wary of any potential enemies.

Ms. Jasmine and the Ice Sea Witch had already secretly set up the magic circle.

……

Bloodbath Command Post.

Lucy was also looking in the direction of the Ancient Dragon Continent.

"This day has arrived, a brand new era is about to begin... Will we continue the endless cycle of history, or will we break free from all constraints and fight this final battle!"

The other great wizards were also watching intently as the knight, the number one warrior, underwent his tribulation, their emotions ranging from excitement to complex feelings.

……

Black Abyss City.

The Black Abyss Ruler's gaze was like a mirror, reflecting the crimson sky.

He watched Li Wei's figure disappear.

I wish you success.

……

The Supreme Council.

The Frost Witch moved away from the round table.

Amon, lost in thought, looked up at her retreating figure.

"What are you going to do?"

"I want to personally congratulate him on passing level nine."

The Frost Witch's clear, cold voice rang out.

Eamon gave a helpless smile.

"Go."

He closed his eyes again, his aura like a sharp sword poised to be drawn.

He needs to be prepared at all times until the demons of the bloody battle are destroyed.

A war powerful enough to destroy Nora could break out at any moment.

……

at the same time.

Legendary gazes crossed mountains and seas, looking towards that crimson world.

Twilight Temple, Ancient Dragon Empire, Tower of Dawn, Witch's House...

The members of the Ancient Dragon Continent were paying close attention.

Everyone vaguely guessed that the prince was about to overcome a level nine calamity.

As the king of supernovae in the last thousand years.

His advancement has already attracted the attention of countless beings.

This may be the most glorious moment for Li Wei before he became a legend.

Right or wrong, success or failure, will all become topics of conversation for others!

……

The Dark Land.

"As expected, the Twilight Palace Master is undergoing tribulation. Be prepared, this is our last chance... As long as we hinder his advancement, we will succeed!"

Some of the demons' hostile gazes were also directed at Li Wei, who was the center of attention.

The assassins are ready.

……

Council of All Races

The Void Emperor smiled and said:

"Now, everyone, please watch Xu Li's performance."

If it were possible to kill the Twilight Palace Master under such circumstances.

So, the Void Race has also made its mark on history in a unique way.

There was also a hint of anticipation in the eyes of the Amethyst Saint.

It would be so much better if this troublesome fellow simply perished in some calamity.

Only the Dark Sun Lord remained silent, seemingly without any hope.

……

An indescribable river of time surges forth.

The river parted, and the Time Castle in the center was faintly visible.

A giant dragon, imbued with the aura of time and possessing wise eyes, watched with great interest the changes taking place on the ancient dragon continent from the perspective of an "observer."

It seemed to be inspired, and picked up its pen to write:

On this page of history, some unexpected yet logical changes seem to have occurred. This is the result of multiple factors. Even with my current level of understanding, I can hardly see the final outcome.

However, as Mr. Eamon said, before the story is over, any ending can be rewritten. On the parchment woven by time and space, the actions of all living beings influence its final course.

……

Time passed second by second.

Half a day later, Li Wei had already reached the top of the flesh and blood ladder.

His veins were bulging all over his body, and his blood vessels were about to burst.

His entire body had turned into a bloody mess.

Suddenly.

Danger alert flashes in my mind.

However, a level nine fish demon broke through the void and attacked him.

Li Wei ignored him and continued climbing the tower.

boom!

A colossal pillar of crimson flames descended from the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the figure of a level nine demon vanished into nothingness.

The Minotaur Moth rode a skeletal warhorse, its chains drawing away his soul.

It turned its head to look at Li Wei, who was covered in blood, and silently thought to itself:

"Keep it up, buddy..."

On the continent of Soren.

A slightly aged figure stood atop the Tower of Babel.

Billions of fiery clouds appeared out of thin air, with a colossal object vaguely moving among them.

"hold head high!"

The fiery clouds coalesced into a crimson form resembling a deer-antlered eagle with eagle eyes, like the divine dragon of China. It encircled the entire continent of Solon, exuding silent majesty and domineering aura. At the center of its forehead, a mysterious golden character shone brightly:

【dragon】!

Ranked 5th on the contemporary list of sorcerers - The Dragon Who Guards the World!

Dragonflame Witch Rego leaped up and sat atop the dragon's head.

He gazed into the endless deep space.

It was as if I could see figures exuding overwhelming demonic energy.

"Come on, Sulgard, let me see where my limits are!"

He gently stroked the crystal ball in front of him, his palm wreathed in crimson flames.

It's like touching... the whole world!

Four crimson dragons roared and their phantom images soared into the clouds.

At the same time, throughout Nora and across the continents.

Four pillars of dragon flame, reaching to the heavens and the earth, illuminated the world.

The level nine demons who attempted to take advantage of the chaos to attack other places were all killed.

In the sky, a giant fiery face faintly appeared, gazing towards the continent of Solon.

"The Dragonfire Shaman? It seems that those who wield dragons are quite powerful in this era... That mysterious character that elevated you, was it bestowed by Sauron? I wonder how much of your lifespan you have left after this battle?"

The giant face slowly dissipated, leaving only Sulgard's cold and ruthless voice.

"Whoever slays the Lord of Twilight Palace will be rewarded with a supreme treasure from the Abyss!"

In an instant, more figures rushed towards the open sea.

Fortune favors the bold.

With such a treasure right in front of us, let's just get to work!

Duke Rumont gazed at the blood-soaked man who was still climbing the stairs.

"Just one step away? Dusk Squad, move out!"

He swallowed the cigar and extinguished it.

Then, with his left hand waving flames and his right hand uprooting mountains, he soared into the sky.

A series of nine-ring auras erupted instantly across the Ancient Dragon Continent!

Star Forge, Frosty World, Nebula Storm...

The awe-inspiring image of the shaman stands majestically between heaven and earth, reflecting each other's brilliance.

Because of the addition of that madman, Sulgard.

Li Wei's promotion was like the start of a major battle.

Not just level nine.

A large number of level eight demons led their legions and swarmed to Nora.

A significant portion of them headed towards the Ancient Dragon Continent.

The celestial system shone brightly, and the Demon-Slaying Shuttle roared and crisscrossed.

One after another, star fortresses spewed forth blue flames, bursting forth from the ground.

Black-armored warriors formed a squadron and patrolled the skies.

An army is raised for a thousand days, but used for only one.

Hundreds of auras of level six or above joined the battlefield from various organizations.

Among these veterans were the Eighteen Riders of Twilight.

Many new-era geniuses also possess this talent.

Various battle groups composed of yakuza warriors transformed into a torrent of steel.

The void shattered, and before the Star Fortress travel group, who had just returned from their long journey, could even be welcomed back, they drew their longswords, grasped their divine talismans, and descended like heavenly soldiers, their bodies radiating murderous intent!

At the same time, four terrifying level-nine dragon might surged into the sky.

They stood guard over the four corners of the ancient dragon continent, their gazes menacing.

On the flesh and blood staircase.

Li Wei's gaze was firm, and he took one step at a time.

With each step he climbed, his momentum increased.

He progressed from the peak of level eight to almost reaching level nine.

The steps behind him were crushed by his footsteps.

He had no way out but to move forward!

A fierce battle was raging around him.

Demon lords occasionally intrude into his cursed domain.

Burned by the crimson flames, it turned to ashes.

Only those at level seven and eight can get a little closer.

But that's about it.

They are trying to increase the difficulty of Livy's Calamity.

Indirectly caused Li Wei's death.

Under the immense pressure, Li Wei seemed to transform into a writhing mass of flesh and blood.

Looking back now, if it weren't for his hexagonal basic properties...

This is an incredibly powerful, mythical-level breathing technique.

Even if he is a genius, he would probably face a nine-out-of-ten chance of death.

After the birth of the universe.

Throughout history, there have likely been tens of thousands of Level 10 beings across the entire multiverse.

However, those who reach level 11 are few and far between.

It seems that this multidimensional world is extremely resistant to the existence of this level of existence.

Finally, Li Wei arrived at the bronze gate.

A faint purple light and a dagger appeared beside them.

Two assassins from the Council of All Races made their move.

Li Wei glanced away, and his body exploded with a bang.

Two gasps of surprise rang out.

He solidified again and kicked the door.

Crack! The door split open a crack.

Another shadowy blade, radiating demonic energy, pierced through.

The Shadow Swordsman, Margot, also made his move.

Boom! The towering pillar of dragon flames grazed Li Wei's shoulder and knocked him down.

A streak of light shot out.

Namargo seemed to have some kind of trump card, and surprisingly, she didn't die.

He escaped, severely injured.

Of course, Li Wei doesn't care about any of that right now.

He kicked the bronze door open again and stepped inside.

"Level 9, here I come!"

At this moment, from the outside, his form completely dissipated.

It seemed to blend into the crimson sunset.

The gazes of those who had attempted to assassinate the Lord of Twilight Palace were now filled with confusion.

Because they can no longer sense Livy's presence.

At the same time, many eyes were focused on Li Wei's tribulation.

There were also some doubts and concerns.

They didn't know if Li Wei had succeeded.

……

In the red world.

Li Wei was panting heavily.

Previously, many of the Crimson Emperor Dragon's abilities had been completely merged.

His bloodline was also completely elevated.

Before him stood a majestic crimson palace at the center of the world.

Its shape is exactly the same as the divine palace inside Li Wei's body.

A statue resembling a red dragon stands in the square in front of the palace.

Lava, flames, volcanoes... many apocalyptic scenes emerge.

Li Wei, like a solitary king, silently passed by.

During this time, phantom images of legendary behemoths that he had once refined appeared.

Black whale, frost giant, holy ape... Crimson dragon.

Clearly, climbing the ladder to heaven is the first test.

Entering here marks the second trial of the Blood Calamity Lord.

But before Li Wei, who was like the sun, they were all shattered with a single punch.

His gaze was firm, and his steps were calm and unhurried.

He awaits the calamity of darkness.

But it did not come as expected.

Or rather, it has already arrived.

Outside... the demonic war that erupted in that instant was a calamity!

Regardless, he has already survived the ninth level of tribulation.

He pushed open the door of the main hall and looked at the empty throne in front of him.

My excited and weary heart has finally found a place to rest.

This is my own world, this is my own throne.

He was the only one who could see the red world.

He is also the only king of this land.

This is a mysterious place that only knights of the ninth rank can set foot in.

[Six Holy Heavens]!

To be precise, it is one of them, the [Destroyer of Heaven]!

Those who climb the ladder to heaven and ascend the throne.

It is the Destroyer God who has the power to bring true end to the world!

Li Wei strode to the throne and sat down without a word.

The power of the Death Dragon repaired its shattered body.

The power of the Heavenly King Dragon restored its depleted energy.

Each breathing technique has its own function.

And the power from the supreme [Destroyer God]

The power was continuously channeled into his body through the throne.

His momentum began to stabilize at level nine.

The power within him grew stronger and stronger.

He had a feeling.

I can now blast the Golden Walker apart with a single punch.

Yes, just literally... one punch!

However, these iron fists will be met by real enemies!

Regardless of how tense the external situation was, he still closed his eyes slightly.

His breathing began to steady, and he fell into a deep sleep.

He is too tired.

He needs to take a good rest on the throne.

It will only take a few minutes.

When he awoke.

Anyone who obstructs his advancement to the ninth rank...

They will all die!

Correct typos first, then make proper changes.
