Red Lotus Form! Burst!

At Levi's current pace, even if he travels at full speed, it wouldn't take him more than a few days to get from the south to the north.

He returned to his territory, and everything was fine during the months he was away. The Three Brothers and the Hengha Er Jiang, were also doing well.

Upon returning to the territory, I listened to the servants' reports and found that nothing had indeed happened recently.

Lying on his bed in his Sanctuary, Levi felt at ease.

"Black Mountain Dog is dead, Bloody Earl is dead, we're still missing Silver Gauze Earl. I'll go find him after I've rested up a bit."

"Let the forces of Black Mountain and the Royal Family family fight like dogs for now. I can't take any more action, otherwise I'll be helping the Royal Family too much. It would be better if they both suffered heavy losses, as that would be more advantageous to me."

"The war will probably end within a year or two. Without the Black Mountain Duke, the Black Mountain Family probably can't win..."

"This massive rebellion that swept across the country was ultimately doomed to failure."

"Black Mountain's last words suggest that he must have some knowledge about the Four Great Families. I wonder if we can get any information about the Four Great Families from Black Mountain."

Levi's Breathing Technique is now almost at the pinnacle of the world. He has defeated Black Mountain, who is comparable to the Empire's Fist. On the path of Knight, he has only one goal: to Legendary Knight.

Therefore, the focus should gradually shift to the path of wizardry.

He will continue to practice the Knight's Breathing Technique, constantly pushing his limits.

He wanted to see exactly where the limits of Knight lay. During this time, in his spare time, Levi Xiuqi supplemented his basic knowledge of wizarding with Tutan's teachings, so as to avoid entering the Wizard World completely clueless and being deceived without even realizing it.

The deal with Earl Silver Mountain is almost over.

Levi's old friend, whose body and mind had been severely damaged by the Evil Spirit, has almost fully recovered in the past few months.

Overall, Levi still hoped that the Earl Silver Mountain would live a long time.

With him holding down the fort in Icewind City, even if the Snow Wraith invade, Levi will have some room to maneuver.

After the Evil Spirit in Icewind City was dealt with, Bishop Adolf returned.

He had grown even older, so the Church sent a young Great Knight to assist the bishop.

Aside from visiting the Shining Tavern once a month to gather intelligence, Levi rarely went to Icewind City.

Inside the Sanctuary, he practiced Meditation Technique and Breathing Technique day and night.

Time flies, and 1014 has passed in the blink of an eye.

With the arrival of the New Year in 1015, the war between the North and South was nearing its end.

The Black Mountain Allied Army suffered repeated defeats, and Silver Gauze Earl, an important nobleman, fled with his family overnight to seek refuge in the neighboring Tuva Empire.

Meanwhile, the Southern Allied Army continued to reclaim lost territory.

The Black Mountain Family retreated again and again, ultimately holding out for Stormwind City.

Making a final struggle.

The Black Mountain Rebellion, which once spread like wildfire, ended in this manner after more than two years.

However, given Stormwind City's military strength, they should be able to put up a last-ditch effort for at least six months.

The southern nobles were already thinking about how to divide the territories of these rebellious northern nobles.

Inside the Blackwater Valley, Levi Wei was in a magical state.

His entire consciousness seemed to have entered a sea of consciousness.

The sea of consciousness is boundless and unfathomable.

Golden sunlight spilled onto the sea, making it sparkle and shimmer.

"Sea of Sunlight!"

"I've mastered the First Order of Deep Sea Meditation Technique. The next step is to keep diving and hone my mental strength."

Levi's consciousness was immersed in this golden ocean, enveloped by the warm sunlight, which strengthened his spiritual power.

"A magical place, does it really exist?"

This thought suddenly flashed through Levi's mind.

He gazed at this ocean of consciousness. So far, in this shallow Sea of Sunlight, there were no living beings or other entities in sight.

"It must be illusory, just some kind of symbol," Levi thought.

He withdrew from the sea of consciousness and looked at the recording tablet in his palm.

On the stone slab are lines of characters, like waves in the ocean.

In some ways, Meditation Technique and Breathing Technique have similarities.

Levi had previously wondered if Knight might be experimental products created by wizards through the combination of the bloodline of some powerful supernatural being with humans. He had asked Tutan about this, but Tutan wasn't sure either, only saying that the origins of Knight were also very ancient.

There is indeed a school of thought among wizards that studies forbidden life transmutation, also known as the School of Life. This school mainly focuses on Bloodline Studies and Mutation Studies, and Lady Rowling is a representative figure of this school.

The School of Life likes to use the bloodlines of different extraordinary creatures to synthesize and create more and more amazing extraordinary creatures. Talking mushrooms and six-winged swans are products of the School of Life. They even use these forbidden life spells to modify their own bodies and transform themselves into monster-like beings.

However, the School of Life is a New Schools; before its emergence, Knight had already been walking the earth in much earlier times.

Therefore, the origin of Knight should be traced back to an earlier period.

Levi stopped dwelling on the issue.

Over the past year, he has made significant progress in all aspects of his spiritual practice.

First, I tried Meditation Technique, and finally got the hang of it.

The moment one's consciousness enters the Sea of Sunlight, that is the standard for entry.

This means that Levi has officially embarked on his wizarding journey.

Of course, he has only just stepped into the threshold of Low-Grade Wizard Apprentice.

He was still a Low-Grade Wizard Apprentice who hadn't even mastered Zero-Circle Cantrip.

Levi ————

Deep Sea Meditation Technique: First Order (1/1000)

"Anyway, I can call myself Wizard Levi from now on," Levi thought to himself with secret delight.

I've been in this world for thirteen years.

In the end, he embarked on the wizarding journey.

This is a good start.

Levi summoned Tutan.

"I've now entered the Meditation Technique, so I should be Low-Grade Wizard Apprentice. Do you have any Spell Model? Give me ten or eight of them," Levi said.

Tutan said with a wry smile, "Low-Grade Wizard Apprentice can only master a maximum of three Zero-Circle Cantrip, and I don't have any Spell Model here. Spell Model are generally only available in the Land of the Faithless. You need to go to each school and spend money to buy them, in an equivalent exchange."

"Spell Model are the core patents of each school of thought. They are not passed on randomly and are unlikely to fall into the human world. For now, you should focus on practicing Meditation Technique to strengthen your mental power. Don't think about spells right now."

"It's not too late to study magic after you've laid a solid foundation."

Tutan said.

"Huh? There aren't even Spell Model?" Levi frowned.

Tutan shrugged and said, "No, really."

"Since I don't have Spell Model, I'll focus on grinding the Meditation Technique and hurry up and find the Land of the Faithless," Levi sighed inwardly.

In the past year, besides the breakthrough in Meditation Technique...

Levi has also made significant progress in other skills.

Levi ——————

Black Snake Breathing Technique: Ninth Rank (Limit, can be broken, current progress is 1/7), Special Effect: Black Scale (Gaseous).

Blood Whale Breathing Technique: Eighth Rank (Limit), Special Effect: Extraordinary Endurance.

Giant Rhino Breathing Technique: Eighth Rank (Limit, Limit Can Be Broken), Special Effect: Extraordinary Strength.

Siren Breathing Technique: Eighth Rank (Limit, can be broken), Special Effects: Extraordinary Speed, Bone Shrinking and Shape Shifting.

Giant Breathing Technique: Eighth Rank (145/100000), Special Effect: Extraordinary Strength.

Ostrich Mountain Breathing Technique: Seventh Rank (23367/50000), Special Effect: Top-tier Strength.

Blood Beast Breathing Technique: Seventh Rank (1245/50000), Special Effect: Top Speed.

Thunder Wolf Breathing Technique: Seventh Rank (Limit, Limit Can Be Broken), Special Effect: Top-Tier Speed.

Red Lotus Breathing Technique: Seventh Rank (288/50000), Special Effects: Top-tier Power, Red Lotus Blood.

Elephant Tortoise Breathing Technique: Seventh Rank (467/50000), Special Effect: Top-tier Defense.

Vortex Beast Breathing Technique: Third Order (3567/10000).

With the help of the blood of the Great Ice Ape King, the Giant Breathing Technique successfully broke through to the Eighth Rank, giving birth to new Extraordinary Strength.

It won't be long before this Breathing Technique reaches its limit. Levi wants to see what changes will occur after the Giant Breathing Technique reaches its limit.

Levi had already pushed the Seventh Rank speed-type Breathing Technique, the Thunder Wolf Breathing Technique, to its limit.

This kind of third-rate, excellent quality Breathing Technique is not difficult to practice.

Levi originally intended to use the Thunder Wolf Breathing Technique to break the limits of the Siren Breathing Technique.

However, after obtaining a better Blood Beast Breathing Technique that could be cultivated to the Ninth Rank, he planned to keep it to break through the limits of the Blood Beast Breathing Technique.

The Blood Beast's speed was clearly greater than that of the Sea Siren, and similar to the Pale Shadow's Breathing Technique.

It's just that the Bloody Earl wasn't skilled enough and didn't demonstrate the Blood Beast's power.

However, it can be used as Levi's primary Breathing Technique for speed-based training in the future.

In addition, the Giant Tortoise, Ostrich Mountain, and Red Lotus Breathing Technique have all been cultivated to the Seventh Rank.

Before reaching the Seventh Rank, the required proficiency for breakthrough is not high, and for Levi now, cultivation is quick.

Once the Ninth-Rank Limit of the Elephant Tortoise Breathing Technique has been reached, it can be integrated with the Black Snake, allowing the Black Serpent Breaks Limit and strive towards the Tenth Rank limit.

While the Gaseous Black Scale are quite strong defensively, they are still far inferior to the Liquid Black Scale.

If Levi possessed the Black Snake Breathing Technique at its Tenth Rank limit, he would be able to face powerful figures like the Black Mountain Duke with greater ease.

The Eleventh-Order Limit of the Black Snake Breathing Technique should correspond to the Legendary Realm level.

At that time, the Black Qi could transform into Solid Black Scale, just like the Black Serpent Scale, covering the entire body. That was true invulnerability to swords and spears, and Vajra!

Among these Breathing Technique, the only one that is somewhat unique is the Red Lotus Breathing Technique.

After reaching the Fourth Order, this Breathing Technique introduces a new special effect: Red Lotus Blood.

"Red Lotus Blood: You can burn and heat up your blood for a short period of time, thereby gaining comprehensive enhancements to your physical attributes. Strength, explosiveness, speed, endurance, defense, and perception will all be strengthened to varying degrees. This effect cannot be upgraded, but its duration and effect will slightly increase as your cultivation level improves. After burning Red Lotus Blood, there will be a recovery period. During this period, you must not use Red Lotus Blood again, otherwise it will lead to a drop in your cultivation level, or even more serious life-threatening dangers, damaging your physical foundation!"

This Red Lotus Blood is similar to the "Bone Shrinking and Shape Shifting" of the Siren Breathing Technique and the "Spider Sense" of the Human-Faced Spider Breathing Technique; both belong to the extremely rare secondary special effects.

Most Breathing Technique, such as the Black Snake, have a single special effect; the higher the quality, the higher the upper limit of the special effect.

This Breathing Technique, which possesses a second special effect, is extremely rare and highly sought after.

Of all the Breathing Technique Levi had learned, he had only encountered three.

The second special effect is often not upgradable; it can only be mechanically and slightly improved as the player's skill level increases.

But without a doubt.

Red Lotus Blood is an extremely powerful special effect.

A pure burst effect can comprehensively enhance Levi's various attributes.

An incredibly powerful burst skill.

Levi tested it as soon as he got it.

After using the Red Lotus Blood.

All of one's attributes are significantly enhanced, with the increase varying slightly depending on the attribute. Some attributes that receive a strong increase, such as the main attribute of the Red Lotus Breathing Technique, Strength, can be increased by as much as 50%.

Some attributes with weak amplification, such as speed, only increase by about one-tenth.

But no matter what, this increase, even if it's only one-tenth, is already terrifying.

Especially for someone like Levi, every one percent increase in attributes represents a significant improvement.

When fighting against others, one's various physical attributes suddenly increase by one-tenth to one-half. How abnormal is that?

Of course, the drawbacks of the Red Lotus Blood are also quite obvious.

It causes significant damage to the body. After Levi used it last time, he had a recovery period of up to half a month. During this period, Levi's strength was even weaker than in his normal state.

Therefore, Red Lotus Blood is a classic skill that kills a thousand enemies but also inflicts eight hundred casualties on the user.

It should not be used unless absolutely necessary.

Levi felt that there were very few people in the world who could make him use the Red Lotus Blood.

With his current strength, even the Empire's Fist would have to kneel before him.

Besides the Breathing Technique, Levi's Black Demon Blade has also reached the Second Order limit.

Levi ————

Black Demon Blade: Second Order (Limit, Limit Breakable)...

Perhaps due to limitations in his mental strength, he is currently unable to comprehend the Third Order, Evil Spirit Possession.

However, the Second Order limit of the Black Demon Blade was already very useful to him.

He can now condense Black Qi into hidden weapons and throw them a full hundred meters away, which is about the range of an arrow.

However, the power of the Black Qi hidden weapons is enough to tear through armor and the defenses of Great Knight! "Now, whether it's close combat or ranged attacks, I'm much stronger than last year. It's just a pity that it's lonely at the top. I don't have a single decent opponent anymore. Life is truly as lonely as snow." Levi sighed.

He is very strong now, not because he's arrogant, but because he really is.

Even if all Demon Family Four Generals attacked together, they wouldn't last more than a few rounds against Levi now; he could take them down with a single palm strike.

Levi had mastered the Golden Ripple Divine Palm to perfection, becoming increasingly proficient. With a single strike, meridians would be severed, bones shattered, and the Ripple Power would sweep through the body, wreaking havoc on the internal organs! This was a deadly technique!

"A single strike will kill!" Levi walked out of the Sanctuary.

"Now that I've mastered the Meditation Technique, I can just work on it gradually from here on out."

"Next, we still need to find information about the Four Great Families."

"Perhaps the Black Mountain Duke's son should know something."

"After staying at home for so long, it's time to go out and get some fresh air."

Levi is now riding high, and without realizing it, he has reached such a level in the way of Knight that he can now stand at the summit and survey all the mountains below.

"The Legendary Knight is almost here."

"However, it's still best to keep a low profile."

"I don't need to show off in front of the Church."

"Legendary Knight are nothing more than larger ants to the gods. What difference does it make if they are ants? They can all be crushed with a single finger."

Levi was very clear about his own limitations.

He packed his things; this trip shouldn't take long.

The main purpose is to settle things with the Black Mountain Family and the Silver Gauze Family.

"I heard that Silver Gauze Earl has defected to the Tuva Empire. It's time for me to revisit this place. I wonder where that kid, Empire's Fist, is now," Levi thought to himself.

There was a time when I fled in panic under the lingering power of the Empire's Fist.

Now, he is no longer afraid of him.

Even without using the Rune Seal and the power of wizards, Levi was confident that he could defeat the Empire's Fist.

This is his confidence in his self-created Golden Ripple Divine Palm.

In a few more years, the Golden Ripple Divine Palm will be able to transform into the Golden Rotation Divine Palm.

At that time, Levi wondered who in the world could withstand his palm strike. Three days later, Levi left Blackwater Valley.

The battle-damaged versions of the Demon Family Four Generals followed closely behind.

He had another purpose for this trip: to eliminate Demon Shark and his gang and bring in a new batch of Living Dead.

Apart from Demon Shadow Bloody Earl, both Demon Shark, Demon Mountain, and Demon Sea are severely worn down, greatly affecting their combat power.

Therefore, Levi's most urgent task is to replace the Living Dead with a fresh batch of new ones.

My current Seventh-Order Seal has a total of seven summoning slots.

However, Levi's standards have risen. He no longer looks down on ordinary Great Knight. Once the Seven Generals are formed, those who can join the Demon Family Army must be Peak Great Knight.

This is how it can truly be effective in battles against top-tier powerhouses.

Otherwise, they would end up like the Black Mountain Duke of Black Mountain Duke, who would have them all cut down one by one.

Levi first went to Icewind City.

He met Earl Silver Mountain again, disguised as a man with Golden Warhammer.

"My Lord, this is the last transaction. After this shipment, our deal will be complete," Levi said.

Earl Silver Mountain's expression was complicated. He looked at the Golden Warhammer and said, "Master, let's prepare to go south to seek refuge. I have just received accurate information that the Snow Wraith has appeared in Black Mountain City, and the kingdom and the southern nobles have abandoned the Northern Territory."

"What? They've appeared in Black Mountain City? So fast?" Levi was startled.

During this time, everyone was busy with the civil war, and Levi was busy cultivating and gaining experience, completely forgetting about the Snow Wraith.

He hadn't expected the Snow Wraith to appear in Black Mountain City so quickly.

"Yes, the sky in the center of Black Mountain City... cracked open. Some people saw a bright blue light, and then blue Snowflake began to fall from the sky. In the Snowflake, some people turned into Snow Wraith, biting their lovers to death, eating their own flesh and blood, and killing their comrades..."

"Master, winter has come, and the real Calamity has arrived."
