On the second floor of the dilapidated Wizard Tower, Levi gazed at the wizard's Manual in his hand.

"Don't enter the Nightmare unknowingly..." he murmured to himself.

Through this experimental log, he witnessed a group of wizards in the Dreamland Spire go from their initial ecstasy at discovering a new world to their unknowing descent into Despair Abyss from which they could not extricate themselves.

"The Nightmare World, is it yet another unknown and terrifying world...?"

Levi increasingly realized that there were too many unknown dangers in the Wu Yin universe.

Like the Dark Forest, rushing into it may not be a good thing.

The power of the Wizard Civilization made these wizards of the Dream School lower their guard.

This ultimately led to such a tragedy: everyone in the Dreamland Spire who had entered the Nightmare World vanished into the Wizard World.

They may be dead, or they may be struggling to survive in Nightmare World.

However, the danger of entering a world comparable to the Astral Realm and the Underworld without preparation is self-evident.

The Underworld and the Astral Realm are somewhat unique compared to other material worlds.

Now it seems that this Nightmare World might be just like that.

Levi suddenly remembered the Ash World he had entered.

The bizarre creatures that exist in the Ash World are somewhat like the Nightmare Creatures in these wizards' research diaries.

Most of the extraordinary creatures in the Wizard World, on the whole, conform to people's imagination and understanding of ordinary creatures.

Whether it's the "Death Fallen" or the "Nightmare Creatures," these creatures' appearances and temperaments are truly whimsical and bizarre.

There's the "Hundred-Handed Giant Centipede" with hundreds of human hands on its sides, the "Long-Haired Turtle" with a shell covered in women's long hair, and the "Human-Faced Frog" with a talking human face on its back.

"This is weird. Why do you have to spend all your time researching this stuff?" Levi sighed inwardly.

The Dreamland Spire was once an Eighth Ring Wizard organization, which, in the Endless Sea, should be considered a giant.

Such organizations can disappear in an instant.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with this spirit of exploration and seeking knowledge.

Without such pioneers, the Wizard World would have had a hard time growing.

Levi entered the contents of the Manual into his Memory Stone Slab; these were precious pieces of knowledge that these wizards had obtained at the cost of their lives.

Who knows when it might come in handy.

As for the strange Nightmare Creatures in the laboratory, he did not take them with him.

He went to the third floor of the Wizard Tower, which was the wizard's study.

"No matter what, it's all knowledge, take it all with you."

After doing all this, Levi left the Wizard Tower.

He didn't find any valuable items like magical artifacts inside.

It is possible that they disappeared along with their owners.

Based on the clues Levi obtained...

At its peak, Dreamland Spire had three Eighth Ring Wizard.

There are more than fifty branches throughout the Endless Sea and even in other Land of the Faithless.

Each branch has at least one mid-level wizard in charge.

These branches are often hidden Abyss underground or underwater, seemingly unwilling to be discovered by the world.

Under the guidance of intermediate wizards, virtually all wizards and Wizard Apprentice dedicate their entire lives to the study of dreams and the newly discovered Nightmare World.

This organization was once the leader of the Dream School, but after the Dreamland Spire disappeared without a trace, the Dream School never rose again.

Today, it may have become as rare as the Insect School, a rarity in the Wizard World.

The entire underwater ruins contain dozens of Wizard Tower.

Levi proceeded cautiously, visiting each place one by one, and ultimately managed to obtain some Great Stone, which were better than nothing.

In addition to some spellbooks from the Dream School, Levi selected some spells that would be useful to him, intending to learn them when he had the chance in the future.

Among these, there was a Second-Ring Spell, "Silently Entering Dreams with the Wind," which greatly interested Levi.

By casting a spell, one can enter the target's dream with a wisp of spiritual power.

Deep within their subconscious, memories and thoughts are unearthed from the target's dreams; Dream School call these "Dream Relic."

Of course, these Dream Relic may or may not be useful, and need to be identified.

Moreover, this spell can only be cast on people whose mental strength is far lower than one's own; otherwise, it will backfire on oneself.

In addition, wizards can use the spell of "Silently Entering Dreams with the Wind" to hypnotize their targets and implant psychological suggestions, which can indirectly achieve the purpose of taming or manipulating them.

"Interesting."

Levi put the spellbook away for future use.

In addition to these spellbooks, Levi also found a map.

He unfolded the map, which was also a nautical chart.

It was exactly the same as the nautical chart he had obtained before, in terms of material and everything else.

There are also text markings above, in the area around Mirror Lake.

[The Lost Pan God Grotto].

Levi found many research notes inside the Wizard Tower. Through the knowledge in the notes, he learned that "Pan" was a powerful being from the Nightmare World that the Daydream Wizard of the Dream School had captured during their research on the Nightmare World.

It seems to be an indigenous deity from a region in the Nightmare World.

Of course, the deities here only refer to things like religious totems.

There's no way to compare them to beings like the Seven True Gods.

Therefore, the wizards called him "Pan God".

And Pan God's lost labyrinth was chosen as the code name for the Dreamland Spire.

Pan God was suppressed in the headquarters of the Dreamland Spire, sealed firmly with magic arrays and sorcery artifacts.

The wizards at headquarters discovered that the [Dream Illusion Potion], made from Pan God's blood, was exceptionally effective.

The wizard's entry into the Nightmare World is different from Levi's entry into the Ash World; Levi entered it in his true form.

There are two ways for a wizard to enter the Nightmare World.

The first method is to enter in person, which means entering through the strange Other Plane rift where the Nightmare Creatures was initially discovered.

However, the mortality rate for entering the Nightmare World in this way is too high. If the real body dies, it is a permanent death. So far, no one who has entered the Nightmare World in their real body has returned.

After discovering the second path, the wizards of the Dreamland Spire sealed the Other Plane rift to prevent powerful Nightmare Creatures from appearing in the real world and causing chaos.

The second type is an original creation of the Dreamland Spire Wizard.

Using Dream Illusion Potion and magic circles as aids, create your own "Nightmare Avatar" in the Nightmare World.

Then you wake up somewhere in the Nightmare World and explore the world around you.

The initial strength of this Nightmare Avatar is different.

In general, the stronger a wizard's mental power and the higher the level of the Nightmare Creatures's blood they use, the stronger the Nightmare Avatar they can use to enter the Nightmare World, thus allowing them to explore further into the Nightmare World.

If a wizard dies in the Nightmare World, it only results in the loss of a small amount of their mental energy; it will not cause the wizard to die in the real world.

Resources and even dream creatures found in the Nightmare World can be brought back to the real world through a place called the "Nightmare Altar" in the dream world!

Therefore, after capturing Pan God and successfully experimenting with him, the wizards of the Dreamland Spire spread Pan God Potion among all members of their organization.

This will allow all members of the Dreamland Spire to explore the unknown world and seek more wealth and resources in their best condition and at their peak.

Behind this grand and exciting "Nightmare exploration journey" lies a hidden crisis.

In the end, the Daydream Wizard, as the leader of the Dreamland Spire, was discovered to have disappeared from the real world.

Judging from the warning he left behind, he most likely went to the Nightmare World, and his fate is unknown.

However, by then, it was too late.

Almost all members of the Dreamland Spire, from wizards to apprentices, have taken Pan God Potion and entered the Nightmare World.

Not long after, these members, wherever they were, eventually disappeared from the Wizard World.

"That's terrifying."

"Luckily, I didn't explore it rashly back then. The ancient wizarding ruins I went to were actually the headquarters of the Dreamland Spire, and inside, a Nightmare monster comparable to a high-level Primal Soul Wizard was sealed!"

"Find the Lake Naga quickly, I have to leave. I don't want to inexplicably enter the Nightmare World."

Levi hurried to get down to business. Although the Spider Sense didn't give any warnings, the place was still somewhat eerie.

His Synesthesia senses gradually swept over the wizarding ruins.

Finally, in a cave located on the edge of the ruins, he sensed the presence of living beings.

"It's about the same level as the Second Ring Road."

It seemed they sensed the approach of a formidable enemy.

When Levi entered the cave, a mermaid creature that looked almost human and was covered in Black Scale was looking at Levi nervously.

It bared its teeth at Levi, looking extremely fierce.

Behind it was a smaller version of the same species.

"As expected, it is Lake Naga, or more precisely, Black Naga branch of the Lake Naga. After reaching adulthood, it possesses the strength of Second Ring Naga, making it stronger than Gray Naga."

The so-called song of the Lady of the Lake is actually just the sound made by the Lake Naga when they are courting.

It's worth mentioning that the Lake Naga is a parthenogenetic species, consisting only of females.

However, during the mating season, the two female Lake Naga will fight each other to determine who is the best.

The victor remains female, while the loser transforms into a male.

After mating, the male will become female again.

Therefore, in people's legends, there is only the title of Lady of the Lake, but no such title as male lake demon.

Despite her fear, the Black Naga mother still tried her best to shield her Black Naga babies from the terrifying Levi.

The ugly-cute Black Naga baby hid behind its mother, trembling.

"Fine, I won't kill you this time. Not only will I not kill you, but I can also provide you and your daughter with a safer living environment. It seems that your partner has left you. It must be difficult for you to raise your children alone, right?"

Levi said gently.

Your wife and children, I will take care of them.

Ever since the Alice's Ring came along.

Upon discovering the extraordinary creature, Levi's first thought was not to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

He wanted to create a complete little ecosystem inside the Alice's Ring.

This aligns with the green concept of sustainable development.

Ultimately, Levi still wanted to farm.

The Black Naga are significantly more intelligent than the Gray Naga. Through the [Heart of Nature], Levi could sense that the Naga mother's state of mind had fluctuated.

Ultimately, under Levi's oppressive power, the Black Naga lowered its head.

After all, standing beside Levi were the Mountain Giant, as imposing as mountains, and the arrogant mechanical monsters, either of whom could easily crush him.

The Black Naga entered Alice's Ring and went to keep Leviathan and the others company.

Levi's spiritual power swept across this space.

They discovered that the group of extraordinary beings had surrounded the Black Naga mother and daughter again, their expressions seemingly saying, "You've come in too?"

"Gustav, from now on, you're in charge of protecting them, mother and child. You guys better behave yourselves." Levi's voice echoed through the space.

Levi plans to wait until he has mastered the dream-entering spell before trying to enter the Black Naga's dream, plant a psychological suggestion in it, and make it completely submit to him.

If he succeeds, he will be able to tame some low-level supernatural creatures more easily in the future.

The contract slots for the Scarlet Contract are quite valuable, and Levi plans to reserve them for extraordinary beings at the Third Ring or above.

Having found the Lake Naga, Levi decided not to linger there.

He quickly evacuated this lost ruin buried deep in the Abyss.

The Month of Harvest in the year 1061 of the Holy Radiance Calendar.

A small town shrouded in mist by Mirror Lake.

A blacksmith shop opened quietly.

Inside the blacksmith's shop, there was an old man with white hair, bare-chested, revealing his back, with a ruddy complexion and a youthful appearance despite his white hair.

They sipped beer while Forging amidst the firelight.

The clanging and banging sounds rang out outside the city.

Opposite the blacksmith's shop was a small tavern, from which the sounds of drinking and playing drinking games could be heard from time to time.

"Grandpa Wine Barrel, are you really seventy-one years old?" Li Ya stood to the side, her little face flushed red in the firelight.

"Of course." Levi, playing Geralt, exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Then why are you still so healthy? Could it be that you really are a wizard?" Li Ya asked.

"Hehe, as long as you do what I do every day—run ten laps around Mistflow City and do a thousand push-ups—you can do it too," Levi said, taking a sip of his drink.

He may have been practicing alone for too long, and hadn't spoken to normal people for too long. His daily companions were either Fur Race or all sorts of extraordinary creatures.

Therefore, after obtaining the Lake Naga, Levi did not immediately leave the Mirror Lake.

The Mirror Lake area is barren of Power of Aether, perhaps due to the influence of the wizarding ruins beneath Mirror Lake, and there isn't a single wizarding organization within a radius of ten thousand miles.

Because of this, the conflict between the Black-White wizards did not occur here, and the place was very peaceful.

Here, Levi lived a rare life of inner peace.

In his spare time, Levi began to set aside time to experience the various aspects of life.

He always felt that he should do something to further integrate into the lives of ordinary people.

So he thought of his old profession from his time in the Mortal World: blacksmithing.

Levi was Master Smith.

His Fifth-Order Limit blacksmithing skill has been gathering dust for a long time.

That move looked like it was done by a professional.

If Mistflow City is the starting village in the game, then Levi is the blacksmith NPC in the starting village.

His shelves were filled with all sorts of weapons—swords, spears, halberds, you name it.

Many of the designs were created based on weapons from his memories of China in his previous life.

In this world, they are all "unconventional weapons".

"White Wolf Blacksmith Shop is officially open for business! Farm tools, weapons, everything you could want!" Levi called out with a smile, patting Li Ya's head, his voice full of energy.

Occasionally, ordinary people would come to look at the goods. Levi's prices were not high, since he was not short of money and was simply doing it to cultivate his mind.

So the goods sold quite well by the end of the morning.

"Old Barrel, business is good, huh?" The tavern owner swayed her hips as she called Li Ya to lunch.

"Hehehe, just making a little money, otherwise I wouldn't be able to afford your wine."

The proprietress's name is Syria. Her husband passed away not long after giving birth to Li Ya, and she ran this small tavern on her own, raising Li Ya alone. It wasn't easy for her.

The proprietress had originally thought that if Levi was a wizard, she would do everything she could to make Li Ya Levi's Wizard Apprentice.

Unexpectedly, Levi was indeed an ordinary person, only slightly stronger than others.

The problem is, no matter how strong you are, it's all useless in front of a wizard.

Even if you can lift a bull, one Fireball Technique will take you down.

So now the proprietress has given up hope and just wants to spend her life peacefully with her daughter by this Mirror Lake.

Unbeknownst to her, in the chaotic Wizard World, Mirror Lake was a rare paradise.

"I made a bit too much for lunch, do you want some?" The proprietress looked at the Old Barrel being forged over there.

Judging from Old Barrel's boasting in the tavern, he's probably an old bachelor who doesn't even have a wife.

So the kind-hearted proprietress thought of inviting Levi to have a meal with her. After all, although he looked healthy, he was still an old man in his twilight years, and who knows when he might close his eyes and sleep forever.

"No need, I have a big appetite, your small pot isn't enough for me." Levi waved his hand, letting the proprietress take Li Ya away by herself.

After tidying up the blacksmith shop, he returned to his residence and opened the Proficiency Panel.

Levi ————

Forging: Fifth Order (Limited, can be fused), Special Effect: Masterpiece of Ingenuity, Unrestrained Skill.

Alchemy: Fifth Order (13124/30000, can be fused).

"I never expected that Forging would actually have the opportunity for fusion."

Levi only discovered this after he finished forging iron this morning.

Perhaps his Forging have become even more superb than before, which has led to a change in his Forging techniques.

"Integration".

Levi's heart stirred.

He then saw that all the skills in Forging and Alchemy had disappeared from the Proficiency Panel.

Instead, a brand new skill has emerged.

Levi ——————

Refining: Fifth Order (13124/30000), Heart of Artifacts.

[Heart of Artifacts: You possess a unique talent for Alchemy, Forging, and Artifact Forging.] "Artifact crafting?"

Levi was somewhat surprised.

He had indeed obtained a copy of the Star Forging Rune Book before; it was a book about Artifact Forging.

However, he only learned the Rune Words mentioned above and did not actually learn the orthodox way of Artifact Forging in a systematic way.

Unexpectedly, in this ordinary little town, he actually combined the Forging and Alchemy skills he had acquired in the Mortal World to create a weapon crafting skill.

The art of crafting encompasses everything, including Alchemy, Forging, and Artifact Forging.

"That makes sense. Alchemy is essentially a variation of Artifact Forging, and Forging is a prerequisite for Alchemy. Now Artifact Forging I possess such extensive knowledge of Forging, Alchemy, and even the more difficult art of crafting magic arrays, it's only natural that I would learn Artifact Forging by analogy."

For Levi, the skills of alchemy, Alchemy, and Forging were an unexpected bonus.

"The panel has many functions, and I still need to develop them," Levi thought to himself.

I finished another round of meditation.

Levi felt his mental energy slightly amplified.

[Mental Strength: 92]

[Art Power: 2730]

"Getting closer and closer, only 8 points left, I should be able to reach 100 points before I turn 75."

"Afterwards, I may need to find a safe place to go into seclusion for a relatively long time, and try to successfully transform my spiritual energy into physical energy in one go."

After this period of transformation, Levi, having calmed his mind, found that the mental energy in his mind was much calmer than before.

He had a feeling that, combined with the "Earth and Fire Qi Transformation Method" and the Lake Fairy Potion, it would be perfect.

I should be able to confidently enter the Third Ring.

"However, there's a problem. The Lady of the Lake Potion is Third Ring potion, and I'm only Second-Ring Potion Maker right now. I can't use my mental energy to refine Third Ring potion... This is damn unsolvable."

Levi suddenly thought of a question.

"Most pharmacists should first buy potions to help their wizard cultivation break through to the Third Ring, and then refine Third Ring potions to break through to the Third Ring pharmacist level. Someone like me who wants to refine Third Ring potions with Second Ring cultivation level is probably just dreaming."

"If all else fails, we'll have to go to the Green Forest Witch or Ha Fuman. They're the two Third Ring Apothecaries I know who I have a good relationship with and who I can trust."

Levi calmed down and continued his cultivation.

Time flies like an arrow, passing by in a flash.

The year 1062 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Vitality.

The 26th year of the Great Expedition.

Levi, now a mortal, has fully integrated into life in Mistflow City.

He was always accompanied by a young girl, Li Ya, the landlady's daughter.

Gradually, the Old Barrel's Forging skills became widely renowned in Mistflow City.

Levi continued to live a simple, unpretentious, and monotonous life, but with Xiao Li Ya by his side, his boring life was somewhat made more interesting.

On this day, the wizard's ethereal light once again passed through the sky.

The residents of Mistflow City, like country children watching airplanes fly by, watched the wizards gradually disappear into the distance with envy and longing.

"Grandpa Wine Barrel, why can wizards fly? They don't have wings."

"Because their wings are invisible, right..."

Levi calmly watched the wizards passing by, high above him.

Before long, another wizard flew by, seemingly chasing after another wizard.

Before long, Levi's powerful hearing picked up the sounds of a magical duel in the distance.

"When will this fighting ever end?"

Levi remembered the Torrent City.

He hadn't contacted Ha Fuman for a long time, and he hadn't dared to go to Torrent City to check on the situation there. He also didn't know how Ha Fuman and Grimm were doing.

I wonder how Teacher Mai Lin and the others are doing in the Giant Tree Secret Realm.

Has the Twilight Temple in the Mortal World developed yet? And what is the situation of Herman, the tower master in a faraway other world, and his lover?

After becoming a mortal, Levi would sometimes think of these fleeting passersby in his life.

Levi will never forget those who helped him.

"93 points of mental strength. Keep it up!"

Levi put away the Crystal Ball and muttered to himself.

"Li Ya, come back for dinner. Let the Old Barrel take a nap." The tavern owner called out to Levi, Li Ya was pestering Levi to tell her Legendary Realm stories.

"I'm leaving now, Grandpa Wine Barrel. I'll come find you again when you wake up." Li Ya waved and turned to leave.

"There was a time when I couldn't get used to other kids calling me uncle, but now I'm a grandpa. The wizard's journey is really numbing." Levi returned to his home in the small town.

A figure landed on Mirror Lake Mistflow City.

This is a witch wearing a green robe; her face is pale, as if she has just experienced a fierce battle.

As she moved forward, her appearance changed continuously, eventually transforming into a witch who looked like a peasant woman.

"Finally, I've shaken off that damned Black Wizard. I'll find a place to live in seclusion for a while, recover from my injuries, and then leave."

This place has little elemental energy, and wizards rarely venture here, making it the perfect spot. Combined with my secret techniques, after changing my appearance, my enemies should have little chance of detecting me."

This witch is named Mei Lin Na, and she is traveling from the distant [Realm of All Things] to the [Azure Realm].

The Realm of All Things is a very small Land of the Faithless, dominated by the [Spiritism Spire].

This is the highest institution of Spiritism School, and it is basically filled with Spiritism School.

However, the Realm of All Things is too small, and it is very difficult to find extraordinary creatures that can be contracted within it, let alone suitable ones as spirit beasts.

Mei Lin Na is Third-Ring Wizard of the Spiritism Spire. She has a dual affinity for water and wind. The spirit beast she contracted when she advanced to the First Ring was a juvenile [Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast].

It was a gift from her father, Fifth Ring wizard.

Now, her summoned beast has reached a bottleneck, namely, Third Ring extraordinary creature.

This directly resulted in her strength being stuck at the Third Ring, unable to advance any further.

Unfortunately, this is the downside of the Spiritism School.

Of course, for anyone else, advancing to the Third-Ring Wizard, as long as they don't cause trouble, would be a solid mid-level position in any school of thought, something to be proud of.

However, Mei Lin Na was naturally dissatisfied. Her father, the professor of psychic studies at the Tower of Spirits, was a Fifth Ring wizard, and the psychic beast he contracted was Fifth Ring creature [Flame Fire Dragon Centipede].

She wanted to emulate her father, and his choice of the [Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast] as Mei Lin Na's summoning beast was naturally a well-considered one.

As Mixed-blooded Dragon, the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast's growth potential is not limited to the Third Ring.

His father had witnessed his advanced form, the Fifth Ring extraordinary creature, [Ten-Winged Sky Sea Dragon King], when he was traveling in the Azure Realm.

That was a being standing at the pinnacle of Mixed-blooded Dragon. Back then, his father was only Fourth Ring Wizard and didn't dare to get close. He only caught a glimpse of it, but it left a deep impression on him.

Mei Lin Na came to the Endless Sea in order to advance her summoned beast.

Then, not long after they arrived, the Black and White Wizard War broke out.

She was forced to remain in the Endless Sea.

However, given her abilities, there's nothing to worry about.

She then focused on searching for clues about the Dragon King in the Endless Sea.

As long as she finds the Dragon King, she can then find a way to obtain a drop of Dragon King primordial blood.

She can then refine the [Ascension Spirit Potion], allowing her spirit beast to break free from its bloodline shackles and gain the potential for evolution.

Unfortunately, their mission failed before they were targeted by the Black Wizard causing chaos in the Endless Sea.

The other party was a senior Third Ring wizard of the Oceanic School, and the leader of the Third Ring Black Wizard Organization, the Blackwater Spire.

He practiced a special, highly poisonous magic, and developed what is known as the "Venom Body".

Her summoned beast was poisoned during the battle with its opponent, and its strength has been greatly reduced. It urgently needs to recuperate.

Her strength lay entirely in summoning spirit beasts, so she was constantly being chased around.

Now, after all that trouble, they've finally shaken off their opponent.

She planned to hide in a mortal town, living in anonymity for a period of time, while also healing her spirit beast.

And this small town in front of us is quite nice.

She disguised herself as an ordinary peasant woman and blended into the crowd.

In a peaceful little town.

There were actually two wizards hiding there.

Levi works day after day in the blacksmith's shop, experiencing different states of mind in the mundane world.

Meanwhile, Mei Lin Na also kept her aura hidden, settled down in a mansion at the end of Levi's street.

That night, Levi was practicing meditation.

His ears suddenly twitched, and he could faintly hear the splashing sound of water coming from Mirror Lake.

The sound of water was very far from Mistflow City; if Levi hadn't possessed Synesthesia, he wouldn't have been able to detect it at all.

"Could it be that something has changed at the wizard's ruins?" Levi suddenly thought of the wizard's ruins beneath Mirror Lake.

He was determined to go and see for himself; if anything had happened at Mirror Lake, he would leave Mistflow City.

Before leaving, he wanted to ask the landlady if she would be willing to let Li Ya become a wizard. If possible, he wanted to send Li Ya and the landlady to the Giant Tree Secret Realm.

Li Ya has great talent and a good personality. Levi thinks that Mai Lin will really like this little girl.

Mai Lin is currently only Second Ring ordinary wizard, and it will be very difficult for her to advance to Third-Ring Wizard. Her lifespan is also less than a hundred years.

A century is neither a long nor a short time for a wizard.

If no other opportunities arise, it's time to find an apprentice for the teacher to accompany her.

Levi quickly arrived at the lake and saw the source of the sound of water, which was not a ruin.

Instead, it was a huge sea serpent with three pairs of wings, playing in the lake.

Levi is now also an expert in extraordinary biology, and he could tell at a glance that this was a "Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast," a hybrid Dragonkind of the Third Ring level.

At this moment, the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast was covered with all sorts of scars and sores.

"Poisoned... How could there be Third Ring extraordinary creature in Mirror Lake? Could it have been hiding in that bottomless Abyss all along?" Levi wondered.

He Synesthesia to look around, but there was no one else there.

"Since I discovered you, consider yourself lucky. As long as you submit to me, I can heal your wounds," Levi said to the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast in front of him.

This is the Third Ring Dragonkind; they can replenish their extraordinary bloodline pool once again.

The Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast opposite him watched Levi warily.

Upon hearing that Levi wanted to subdue it, the proud creature immediately spat out a violent jet of water, attacking Levi.

Suddenly.

Levi's body was surrounded by layers of magical defensive force fields, which completely neutralized the attack of the Third Ring extraordinary creature, without even requiring the use of Levi's Golden Serpent Scales.

Seeing that even the injured giant beast couldn't break through his defenses, Levi Wei said calmly.

"If you're unwilling to submit, fine, but why did you have to resort to violence? You attacked first! What I did was in self-defense!"

"Laja, Bo Gang, Tyrant!"

Immediately, Levi's three powerful warriors appeared behind him.

Laja, his body wreathed in the power of wind and thunder, hovered high in the sky, his gaze fixed on the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast ahead, filled with disdain.

Laja opened his mouth, and a ball of lightning flew out, illuminating the lake surface and blasting towards the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast, causing it to suffer repeated pains.

At the same time, the Mountain Giant Bo Gang roared and cast a Third Ring spell at the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast.

In an instant, the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast was surrounded and attacked.

Levi didn't make a move, but watched as the three of them ganged up on the sea dragon beast.

Just then, Levi suddenly felt a sense of crisis approaching, triggering Spider Sense warning.

With a bang.

Levi decisively exploded!

It dispersed into a cloud of blood mist swirling on the lake's surface.

The spell passed through the blood mist, diluting it slightly.

Then, the blood mist condensed into a human shape.

Levi face was slightly pale, turned around and looked at the figure that had suddenly appeared behind him.

An angry witch stared at Levi, her eyes practically wanting to kill Levi a thousand times over.

"Why hurt it?" she said coldly.

"Is this your pet?" Levi's aura continued to rise.

"That's right," the witch said, showing her her membership card.

[Mei Lin Na: Third-Ring Wizard, Spiritism Spire...] "Sorry, this might be a misunderstanding. I thought it was unclaimed..."

Upon seeing the membership card, Levi understood.

The Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast in front of us is not an ownerless beast; it is most likely someone else's spirit beast.

The problem is, he didn't know either. He had just done a thorough survey to make sure there were no other wizards around before he made his move.

"All three of you, come here," Levi said quickly.

Laja and his companions, who were fighting three against one, came up behind Levi.

He also showed his membership card to prove that he was not a bad person.

Seeing that Levi had stopped, and knowing that she couldn't beat him, the witch didn't press the matter. She suppressed her anger and said coldly, "Forget it."

Then she silently flew to the side of the injured Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast, used medicine to heal it, her face showing worry, without saying a word.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Um... I have some healing potions here."

"No!"

Levi shrugged as he watched the witch named Mei Lin Na heal the spirit beast.

The other party was actually from High-Rank Wizard organization. Could they be holding a grudge against him because of this and going back to the organization to seek revenge? Should he just go all the way and kill them to silence them? If the other party was Black Wizard, Levi definitely wouldn't explain anything further.

But the other person was also a law-abiding citizen just like himself, and Levi really couldn't bring himself to do it.

Moreover, Levi estimated that he couldn't handle the tracking methods of the High-Rank Wizard organizations.

In that case, it might backfire.

"Since she's from the Spiritism Spire, she must have the formula for a potion that can help Leviathan break free from his bloodline shackles. Isn't this an opportunity? I've finally encountered someone from the Spiritism Spire; I have to seize it," Levi thought to himself.

"The deadly poison on this sea dragon beast cannot be eradicated by ordinary medicines. If you trust me, I have a way to remove this poison," Levi said after a long silence.

"You tried to capture my summoned beast right away, how can I trust you?" Mei Lin Na said, holding her breath.

"This is a misunderstanding. I am a supernatural biologist, so when I see a new supernatural creature, I can't help but want to take it away..." Levi explained.

Mei Lin Na stopped speaking. Levi, who wanted to get the potion formula from her, did not leave but silently protected her from a distance.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Mei Lin Na asked after a while, having calmed down a bit.

"I'm waiting for you to let me heal it."

"Don't even think about it!"

Judging from the appearance of the spirit beast, Levi knew it was deeply poisoned, and the poison had a complex composition.

Therefore, he knew that unless he found a professional and knowledgeable pharmacist to conduct a detailed analysis of the venom's components and research the corresponding antidote, ordinary medicines would not be able to cure the poison.

He's an expert in using poisons; he's a poison man himself, and he'd love to consume more toxins to enhance his Scarlet Poison Body.

He still has the right to speak on this matter.

He knew that Mei Lin Na would definitely beg him.

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking.

Mei Lin Na was covered in sweat as she looked at the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast, which seemed to be getting weaker and weaker. This was her spiritual beast, which had been with her since she was a child.

She looked at Levi, who had been sitting cross-legged protecting her all night, her expression hesitant, her heart in turmoil, and finally said reluctantly, "Why don't you give it a try?"

Levi opened his eyes.

"Because this treatment also carries certain risks for me, I need to sign an agreement with you to ensure that we do not harm each other."

"Furthermore, I'm very interested in the Spiritism School's potion formula that can break through the bloodline shackles of necromancy beasts," Levi said directly.

Mei Lin Na's chest heaved, clearly indicating she was quite angry with Levi, and she finally spoke.

"Yes, if you hadn't hurt it and forced it to fight, its poison wouldn't have spread so quickly."

"It hit me first..."

After making excuses, Levi threw the Contract Stone Slab over. Mei Lin Na looked at it and, apart from what she had just said, Levi hadn't set any other excessive terms, so she signed it.

After the contract took effect, Levi had Bo Gang and Laja protect him to prevent the witch from attacking him.

He dissipated into a cloud of blood mist and directly entered the body of the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast.

"This..." Mei Lin Na hadn't expected that Levi would heal in this way.

Half a day later.

A crimson mist, tinged with black, emerged from the body of the Six-Winged Sea Dragon Beast and coalesced on the lake's surface to form the figure of Levi.

In Levi's palm was a mass of asphalt-like black liquid that was constantly writhing and twisting.

"This is the first time I've seen this kind of poison. I've now completely expelled all the toxins from your spirit beast's body at the source. Now you just need to focus on healing."

Levi took out a container and collected the wriggling black liquid.

He planned to go back and study it slowly, and eventually make it into Secret Medicine to enhance the potency of his poison body.

Mei Lin Na's face flushed slightly, as she could feel that the poison was indeed gone.

"Now, give me the recipe," Levi said shamelessly.

He always felt like he was taking advantage of others, but if he didn't, he wouldn't be Levi Wei.
