Immortal and Undying, Reborn Through Nirvana!
The fifth aspect of Dharma.
The Nirvana Dragon.
Its functions are extremely powerful.
First, it's still about improving basic physical attributes, a qualitative change in self-healing ability, and the ability to regenerate flesh and blood—it's all just routine.
Levi's current self-healing ability is comparable to that of Undying and Indestructible Blood Clan or an undead creature.
Of course, it's still a long way from the legendary "Blood Rebirth".
Moreover, the most important organ, the brain, must not be destroyed.
Before the Death Ember Dragon Power is exhausted, except for the head, other organs, even the heart, can be regenerated instantly and multiple times for Levi.
The amount of Death Ember Dragon Power consumed varies depending on the importance of the organ.
This boss-like ability barely makes Levi qualify as "Undying and Indestructible" to a limited degree! The second function of the "Nirvana Dragon" is even more powerful.
This ability is called "Nirvana"! After activating his Dharma Form, if Levi suffers severe injuries and is on the verge of death, he can use the "Nirvana" ability to enter a state of "feigned death," and then consume all the Death Ember Dragon Power to instantly "fully revive"! After reviving, Levi's Death Ember Dragon Seed will activate its "Nirvana Form."
In Nirvana Form, Levi's six dimensions and all attributes will increase significantly, by approximately ten percent!
The duration of Nirvana Form is related to Levi's endurance.
With his mastery of the Sky Dragon Breathing Technique, he should be able to defeat powerful enemies.
After Nirvana Form, Levi will enter a period of weakness, similar to Scarlet Escape, but this period of weakness will be longer.
With great power comes great cost! At Levi's current level, the Nirvana Form can only be activated once.
If he suffers another severe injury, he can only rely on the "Rise from the Ashes" effect to find a safe place and slowly recover his body.
He had a hunch that the limit of the Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique was not a single rebirth.
As its realm advances, it should be able to undergo a second Nirvana, a third Nirvana, and so on. After each Nirvana, its attributes will increase by 10% based on its initial attributes.
In other words, the more Levi dies, the stronger he becomes.
Of course, given Levi's personality and way of doing things, he will most likely never need to use this "rebirth" ability in his lifetime.
Just kidding, that only triggers when you're severely injured and on the verge of death.
"In case of an emergency, I can trigger Nirvana Rebirth by self-harm, thereby activating the Nirvana Form!" Levi had a sudden inspiration.
But after thinking about it, I still think it's not a good idea.
Ideally, we'd never need to use this effect.
Levi always regarded the Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique as his last line of defense and trump card.
"No matter what, Undying and Indestructible and Nirvana Rebirth, worthy of the name of the Nirvana Dragon!"
Levi opened the Proficiency Panel.
Levi ——————
Death Ash Breathing Technique: Fifteenth-Order (1/700,000), Special Effects: Unextinguished Ash Body (Level 3), Rebirth from the Rise from the Ashes, Ash Entanglement, Ember Summons. Bloodline Avatar: Nirvana Dragon; Exclusive Weapon: Armor of Immortality (Level 3).
In this way...
Apart from the Nightmare Dragon Breathing Technique, all five other Breathing Technique have advanced to the Blood Source Three Transformations or higher, with the Golden Snake even reaching the Blood Source Fourth Transformation.
Looking at the Crimson Nether Sparrow on his shoulder, Levi felt very gratified.
He stroked his head and said, "I see you have the potential of Phoenix. Keep up the good work and strive for even greater achievements!"
The Crimson Nether Sparrow had a bad feeling. Could it be that it was going to force me to advance to level five?
Advancing to level four has exhausted all its potential; level five is impossible, not because it doesn't want to try, but because of its bloodline limitations.
With the Crimson Nether Sparrow reaching level four, the problem of the Death Ember Dragon's Secret Medicine was also easily solved.
Of course, he will continue to search for even more advanced Phoenix Bloodline creatures.
After all, given the potential of the Crimson Nether Sparrow's bloodline, what it just said was nothing more than a well-intentioned lie...
We've been inside the Ancient Tower for so long.
Levi ran out of the Golden Snake Secret Medicine he had stockpiled, so he simply suspended his practice of the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique.
This time, he focused on the Crimson Emperor Dragon Breathing Technique.
This is the foundation of Levi's strength, and the primary reason why he can defeat enemies beyond his realm!
Time flies.
Year 5 of the Dark Ancient Tower Calendar.
In the year 1170 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Vitality, Levi was 180 years old.
At the 69th Round Table Conference.
Levi learned that a new Blood Awakened Knight had been born.
This Knight was none other than the Crocodile Turtle Knight, who had sparred with the Halberd Knight and been defeated.
The Crocodile Turtle Knight also has another title in the Knight Order: "Tortoise Shell Knight".
Because his armor had once been touched by his idol Extremity Knight.
So from then on, he never wiped his armor clean.
Dust, grime, and moss had grown on it. It looked similar to a tortoise shell, and given its natural defensive capabilities, it resembled a tortoise.
Therefore, he earned the title of Tortoise Shell Knight.
The Crocodile Turtle Breathing Technique is only an excellent quality Breathing Technique, but if one cultivates it to the fullest extent of its bloodline, possessing the strength of Origin Soul is not a problem.
At that time, they can also use Evolution Magic Potion to promote bloodline evolution, break through the shackles, and go even further! Currently, the Knight Order has 15 official members, and there are only 3 spots left to reach the full capacity.
During this time, the other Knight were all eager to compete for the last three spots.
In response, Levi emphasized that the eighteen members of the Knight were not fixed.
As long as one has excellent character and sufficient strength, one can challenge any of the existing members.
If a new member defeats an older member in a fair duel, that member can take their place.
As the Knight system continues to improve, there will definitely be a surge in First Level Knight in the future. If you want to maintain your position, you must keep working hard and striving for improvement! Currently, the Knight Order already has seven Knight of level three or above.
Looking at the Wizard World, this is a relatively powerful Third Ring organization.
The Knight Order, however, has only existed for a little over a hundred years.
On this side of the Ancient Tower.
After nearly three years in Giant Axe Canyon, Levi's men had dug every inch of the vast canyon.
This day.
The Weasel Scythe's Breath in Levi's hand completely dissipated and merged into Levi's mind.
A warm current flowed through the Law Ring Holy Tower.
The rotation of the Law Ring Holy Tower began to accelerate, and within it, one after another, dazzling spiritual stars condensed.
390, 391, 392...
Even after the four hundredth spiritual star was born, the upward trend had not stopped.
In the end, Levi's number of spiritual power stars reached 406! "Hiss... What's going on? Can refining Truth Wonder directly increase spiritual power?"
Levi had some doubts.
According to the information he found, the Weasel Scythe's Breath has four functions.
Increases the upper limit of mental power, increases the power of wind spells, enhances hearing, and allows communication with Flying Weasel.
However, increasing the upper limit of mental power does not mean directly improving the existing level of mental power; it only means expanding the "container volume".
"It seems that for me, the Weasel Scythe's Breath has a fifth function: directly increasing my mental strength by 16 points, which is equivalent to reducing three years of arduous training!"
In high spirits, Levi took out a brand new Klein Crystal Ball from his Storage Bag.
The Crystal Ball he bought during his apprenticeship was outdated and inaccurate.
In future versions, it may even be possible to reflect the upper limit of mental power.
[Mental Strength: 406/530][Art Power: 20300] "As expected, the upper limit of mental strength has increased."
Under normal circumstances, the maximum mental strength of a standard Fourth Ring Wizard is 500 points! Levi had previously taken [Water Dragon's Chant], which increased the maximum by 10 points.
The maximum value of [Weasel Scythe's Breath] has now been increased by 20 points.
A total of 30 points! What does that mean? It means that Levi's success rate will be 3% higher when advancing to the Origin Soul level!
Keep in mind that this is an advanced Origin Soul; even a one percent improvement is a huge step forward.
This also means that Levi has already reached the level of mental power of the Fifth Ring before advancing to the Fifth Ring, but he has not yet completed the qualitative change process of crystallization.
"This is amazing! It truly lives up to its reputation as a rare Truth Wonder. And this is only at the Earth level. If it were at the Sky or Morning Star, it would be even more incredible!"
As for the Bright Moon, the Blazing Sun, and even the Legendary Realm ones that follow, Levi didn't even dare to dream of them.
No wonder everyone says that the Truth Wonder is a divine artifact that can defy fate and change destiny. Those who obtain it are all chosen ones.
Moreover, even among the Earth-level Truth Wonder, there are actually different levels.
[Water Dragon's Chant] is clearly inferior to [Weasel Scythe's Breath].
Although Levi had only seen these two kinds of Truth Wonder, he felt that the Weasel Scythe's Breath should be considered a top-grade Earth-level treasure.
His three-year wait was worthwhile, as he became the evil "Death Wizard Bone King" and bore the infamy.
"This thing can also increase the power of wind spells. My current wind spell is [Wind Dragon Swiftness]. Let's see how it works."
In the blink of an eye, the air surged, his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, leaving only the sound of the explosion echoing behind him.
"I'm even faster!"
Levi arrived in the canyon, where Wind Calamity raged, and his ears twitched.
In the howling wind, he could hear whispers hundreds of kilometers away.
These voices were like those of a child, incredibly innocent.
"Lord Kamaitachi has been born! Let's go see him quickly!"
"Let's go see the lord."
Where is it? Where is it?
"The Flying Scythe Beast Graveyard".
"But Lord Sokins told us not to go to the Flying Scythe Beast Graveyard, otherwise our lives might be in danger."
"But our Lord Kamaitachi is indeed there."
"What to do? What to do?"
"I'll go ask Lord Sokins and have him take us there."
Levi's eyes lit up with surprise.
The Flying Weasel is a small beast with relatively low intelligence and cannot communicate with humans at all.
But he could hear the conversations of the Flying Weasel in the canyon, as if he had become a Flying Weasel himself.
"As expected, my hearing has improved a lot... and I have become the leader of this group of Flying Weasel in the canyon. As for Sokins, that must be the name of that Big Blue Crab. Extraordinary creatures that can name themselves must have good bloodlines."
Levi's mind raced, and he returned to the Flying Scythe Beast Graveyard.
Now that we have the treasure, it's a done deal, and we don't have to worry about it being stolen by someone else.
He was also preparing to leave Giant Axe Canyon.
The next day.
Gold miner Gilmore arrives at the cemetery.
"Master, apart from the area where the Big Blue Crab is located, we have basically mined all the minerals in Giant Axe Canyon."
Levi accepted the three Storage Ring.
The first item is Wind Sand, totaling two thousand catties.
The second item is the Mist Sand, totaling fifty catties.
The third is the Sky Sand, which is very rare, only about three pounds.
Levi couldn't stop grinning; he was practically doubled over with laughter. These ores, if left out in the open, would fetch an unimaginable price.
However, the thing he has no shortage of right now is money, so he plans to keep it and use it up slowly on his own.
You should know that he has a plane and three major forces behind him.
"Let's stop mining. We can't be too greedy. Let's leave some for those who come after us. We're getting ready to leave," Levi said.
He opened the Book of the Dead and collected all the undead, as well as Gilmore, Phoenix, and others.
Put the corpse demon and the Alchemy creature into the Storage Ring.
Then seal away the extraordinary creatures that were out and about, leaving only those without space outside.
The Red Horn, the Nether Sparrow, Azure Bird all shrank, either wrapping around the arm or standing on the shoulder.
"It's still not very convenient. If only the Alice's Ring could be opened..."
These extraordinary creatures, which cannot be contained, require Levi to ensure their safety before he can focus on fighting in case of emergencies.
But there's no other way now, so I have to keep it like this.
Three days later.
Levi removed all the magic arrays from the Flying Scythe Beast Graveyard, erasing all traces of his life.
Before leaving, at the exit of the canyon, the Big Blue Crab seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and a large group of Flying Weasel were hiding on the Big Blue Crab's body. At this moment, they stretched out their sneaky heads and looked at Levi.
"Kamaitatsu-sama."
An aged voice echoed in Levi's mind.
A rare, pure white Flying Weasel crawled out.
"Are you talking to me?" Levi asked.
"Yes, because you are Lord Kamaitachi." The white Flying Weasel stood up and squeaked.
Levi asked, "Is there something you need?"
"Lord Kamaitachi, please take us away. We have been waiting for a long time."
Where do you want to go?
"Wherever you go, we will go."
Levi looked thoughtful.
The next day.
The exit of Giant Axe Canyon.
A Big Blue Crab was rampaging through the sky.
Wherever it passed, the wind swept away the clouds, Flying Weasel and wind-chasing birds surrounded it, just like divine beasts.
On the back of the Big Blue Crab, a burly black Dragon Spawn sat cross-legged, grinning crookedly.
"Hehehe, I'm a dragon with a mount now! This is a level five extraordinary creature! Sokins, let's go! The world is so big, I'll show you around!"
Levi was in a good mood.
As he had expected, he had now become the king of the Flying Weasel that inhabited this canyon.
They have lived here for generations, waiting for the birth of the Weasel Scythe's Breath to take them away.
Unexpectedly, Levi refined the Weasel Scythe's Breath Levi took its place! Now, Levi has over a thousand Flying Weasel minions.
These little guys, don't be fooled by their small size, they are real Level 1 creatures when they grow up.
Placed in the Twilight Temple, this would be considered Halberd Knight- level unit.
Now, he has suddenly gained control of a thousand.
Of course, half of them were not fully grown Flying Weasel, and their strength was only at the level of Wizard Apprentice.
Even so, this is still a considerable force.
However, for Levi, the greatest use of these Flying Weasel is not in direct combat, but as his eyes and ears, and spies! As the darlings of the wind, the Flying Weasel can freely enter and exit the Wind Disaster Layer of the material plane, which is something that many low-level and mid-level wizards cannot do.
With these items, Levi's treasure hunting and reconnaissance abilities improved dramatically within the Dark Ancient Tower.
Moreover, no one would pay attention to the Flying Weasel passing through the high-altitude Wind Disaster Layer, and they would never guess that this was Levi's "surveillance drone".
In retrospect, this is the correct way to use the Weasel Scythe's Breath. The other functions are merely incidental.
As for the Big Blue Crab named Sokins, he was blinded by the money offered by Levi.
There was no way around it; Levi had given them far too much.
Levi told it that his hometown had countless gold and jewels.
He could even build a grand palace for Sokins to live in, made of gold! The kind-hearted and greedy Sokins agreed without hesitation.
The power of money can also be used to contract extraordinary beings, something Levi had not anticipated.
He specifically tested Sokins' bloodline, only to find that the Rowling Crystal couldn't detect it either.
Perhaps, this really is a crab that's different from others...
After leaving Giant Axe Canyon, Levi visited some nearby resource points and even sent out Flying Weasel squad to search for them, but the results were better than nothing.
He decided not to waste any more time and headed towards the entrance to the Fourth Layer.
The Dark Ancient Tower.
The Fifth Layer.
The area of this floor is much, much larger than the previous four floors combined.
If the first four levels are incomplete little worlds, then this is a complete new world.
On the Fifth Layer, in addition to the "outsiders" who entered the Ancient Tower, there were also various indigenous civilizations, large and small.
These civilizations may have resulted from the creators of the Ancient Tower completely transporting the world during their creation process.
These civilizations are ravaged by despicable "outsiders" every ten thousand years, thus constantly dying out and constantly being reborn.
Today, after hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, the civilization structure that dominates the Fifth Layer has basically taken shape.
Each of these civilizations has a level six or higher being in charge, so even "outsiders" dare not provoke them.
The barbarians, born with superhuman strength and possessing immense power; the humans, widely distributed and highly adaptable; and the demons, who have intricate connections with the demons of the Abyss.
They call the Fifth Layer "Ai Ou Continent".
A magnificent world created by the God of Gods Ai Ou.
The barbarians are organized in tribes and are distributed in the northern part of the Ai Ou Continent, where there are endless grasslands, deserts, wastelands, and ice fields.
Almost every tribe has its own totem worship. These totems are usually powerful and ferocious beasts living there, often with a strength of level five or even level six or higher.
The supreme ruler among the barbarians is called the Barbarian King!
The central part of the Ai Ou Continent is occupied by the most powerful human race.
Humans obtained some spellcasting techniques from the despicable "outsiders," such as the wizard's Meditation Technique and spells.
Over time, a profession known as "mage" came into being.
With the help of mages, the human race established the unified [Kane Empire] here.
The Kane Empire is a theocratic state, ruled by the Chaos Church and its numerous subordinate Chaos Order the Church.
The Chaos Pope is the supreme ruler of the empire and the most powerful mage, known as the "Light of Humanity" and the "Supreme Law God"! However...
In the myth of Ai Ou, neither the barbarians nor the humans have existed for as long as the "demons".
The demons live in the southern part of the Ai Ou Continent.
According to the Chaos Bible, when Ai Ou created the world, it was invaded by extraterrestrial demons. Ai Ou used its divine power to kill the demons, and their corpses were sealed in the south of the Ai Ou Continent, suppressed by the endless "Million Great Mountains".
Unfortunately, Ai Ou had been asleep for a long time, the seal had loosened, and demonic energy had leaked out, forming a brutal demon race. They were led by seven powerful Demon King! The mission of the Supreme Law God was to unite all humankind, inherit the will of Ai Ou God, lead the Order to conquer the barbarians in the north, and destroy the demon race in the south, so that the continent could return to peace.
The three major powers are in perpetual war, without end.
However, the area it occupies and develops is actually just the tip of the iceberg of the Ai Ou Continent.
In addition, there are countless fragmented "Confluence Land" on the Ai Ou Continent.
That place is rich in resources, but also extremely dangerous, attracting large numbers of outsiders, black beasts, apostles of evil gods, and secret agents of powerful figures...
Only the strongest of the three races dare to venture to the Confluence Land.
In the Ai Ou Continent.
Top-tier wizarding organizations typically establish their own power base directly at the Confluence Land, divide up territories, and rival native civilizations.
Outsiders at level six or above are not allowed to attack the native civilization or other participants on the Fifth Layer, otherwise they will be severely punished by the Order Keepers.
As long as you don't provoke any native powerhouses above level six, and rely on teamwork, you'll be basically safe.
Wizards outside of major organizations not only have to compete with other wizards, but also with the Chaos Order, which captures "outsiders" on a large scale!
In the Chaos Order, wizards are referred to as "heretics" or "evil sorcerers."
The Ai Ou Continent is surrounded by a vast ocean, known as the "Four Seas Land".
The West Sea Land, the seaside.
A wizard's camp, with the House of Witches flag flying high.
A massive Fifth Ring array protected the camp.
A group of witches were stationed here; some were practicing their arts, some were chatting, and their giggles could be heard from time to time.
Among the beautiful women, Ai Niya stood out as an outsider.
However, because of his handsome appearance and his mother Triss, who Origin Soul.
He was quite popular with the witches, and people would often come to chat with him.
After experiencing numerous battles, Ai Niya's demeanor has become more mature.
If Ms. Triss could see this, she would surely be very pleased.
"What are you thinking about?" A witch walked over; it was the Phantom Witch.
"It's nothing," Ai Niya smiled slightly.
The Phantom Witch said, "Get ready. We'll go on a mission once the Snow Lotus Witch's team returns."
Ai Niya nodded.
The House of Witches team is divided into two types: "Explorers" and "Guardians," who take turns.
Other top organizations were similar. Each top organization sent at least twenty or thirty people. Some powerful ones, such as the Nine Cities Alliance of the Combustion Faction, sent a total of nearly three hundred wizards.
The Phantom Witch said:
"I just heard from the team leader that half a month ago, the Nine Cities Alliance sent thirty people, led by the Flame Dragon Slayer, who, relying on their numerical advantage, wiped out an indigenous organization that worshipped an evil god and easily took over one of the Confluence Land, the Holy Fire Plateau."
In this battle, three level-five cult leaders were killed, and a large amount of resources and supplies were seized. Three copies of the Truth Wonder alone were obtained.
The Flame Dragon Slayer, amidst the fervor of the crowd, slew a level-five fire-type hybrid Dragonkind, the Mad Fire Dragon Beast, which was guarding the cult's treasure vault.
I estimate that his ranking has already surpassed some ordinary Fifth Ring wizards. With his talent, he can advance to the Fifth Ring within three to five years. At that time, he will probably be competing with those veteran Fifth Ring wizards for the top spot on the Earth Leaderboard..."
Hearing this, Ai Niya looked worried and said, "Compared to the disciplined Combustion School, the other three Traditional School are all fighting their own battles. If this continues, the Nine Cities Alliance may become the dominant force in the future."
The next day.
Outside the stronghold, five streaks of light flew in, led by the Snow Lotus Witch with a cold expression.
Jim, the Fifth Ring wizard, came out to greet them with a smile.
"Your Excellency Snow Lotus, how was the harvest?"
With a wave of her hand, the Snow Lotus Witch sent an amethyst to the ground, its surface gleaming beautifully. Besides this, there were also some Elemental Metal, herbs, and other items.
"Hiss... You actually killed a level four peak Amethyst Clan?" Jim's expression changed slightly.
The Snow Lotus Witch possesses exceptional talent, but killing a level four peak Amethyst Clan in actual combat would still be quite difficult.
The Snow Lotus Witch said calmly, "It's nothing. It's just killing one. As far as I know, the Flame Dragon Slayer has already killed three, and the Golden Light Wizard has killed two. I'm still far behind."
"That's amazing."
"Yes. That's amazing. No wonder they're descendants of Primal Soul Wizard. I'm ashamed of my own abilities."
"The Snow Lotus Witch's ranking will definitely improve significantly!"
In an instant, a chorus of voices, some sincere and some obsequious, rang out.
Watching the Snow Lotus Witch enter the Wizard Tower to rest.
Ai Niya sighed inwardly, "These people... they really are sycophants."
However, he had to admit that being able to kill a member of the Amethyst Clan of the same level single-handedly was something to be proud of. In any case, he didn't currently have that kind of strength.
Nowadays, geniuses in top organizations regard hunting down the Amethyst Clan as their certificate of honor.
However, very few actually manage to do so. Most who encounter the Amethyst Clan flee in disarray, having lost all their armor and weapons.
"I don't know what Levi's strength is now. I hope that after I return from the Ancient Tower, I can catch up with him... and strive to achieve the sixth talent perfection and step into the Fifth Ring environment realm!"
Northern part of the Ai Ou Continent.
Barbarian region.
Heaven Ant Tribe.
The now-famous "Heaven Horn Barbarian King" of Ai Ou comes from this tribe.
Their tribe's totem is known as the "Ant God"! On this day, outside the Ant God tribe, a white-robed witch quietly appeared; she was none other than the Ice Phoenix Feilin.
In her palm, a crystal-clear Frost Dragon Centipede gazed at the tribe ahead, its body trembling.
The Ice Phoenix didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"The good news is that the Heaven Crystal Dragon Ant is on the Fifth Layer. The bad news is that it has become the totem of the Heaven Ant Tribe and is guarded by a Barbarian King who is comparable to a Primal Soul Wizard... Well, let's think about it carefully."
The Fourth Layer of the Ancient Tower.
What you see is the boundless blue sea.
On a deserted island, a blue portal floats.
Two wizards were hidden in the shadowy dimensions surrounding the portal.
They were dressed in Shadow Ring robes; one was a fully-fledged Fourth Ring member, and the other a seasoned Fourth Ring member.
The one with a perfect Fourth Ring is called Shadow Crocodile, while the one with a senior Fourth Ring is Shadow Dog.
As the top wizarding organization of the Shadow School, the Shadow Ring also sent a considerable number of people in this time.
The two of them were assigned here to intercept and kill wizards who broke into the fourth floor, stealing their treasures! Why bother searching for resources when you can just snatch them from someone else? Using this method, Shadow Crocodile and Shadow Dog had already intercepted and killed several wizards and aliens.
Of course, if they sense a tough opponent, such as the Amethyst Clan, they will stay far away.
"Fewer and fewer wizards are coming to the Fourth Layer. It seems that the remaining ones don't have the strength to come up," Shadow Dog said.
"Let's wait another year. If no one's here, we'll go to the Fifth Layer," Shadow Crocodile said in a hoarse voice.
The Third Layer of the Ancient Tower.
Portal entrance.
Two senior Fourth Ring- circle wizards were lingering, seemingly hesitant about whether to proceed to the Fourth Layer.
They are members of a Fifth Ring Wizarding Organization.
Not long ago, their leader, a senior Fourth Ring- circle wizard with five talents, died shortly after entering the Fourth Layer.
Therefore, they suspected that someone on the other side was blocking the entrance, and their strength was at least at the Fourth Ring of perfection. For a moment, they were caught in a dilemma.
suddenly.
An arrogant figure arrived, tall and burly, wielding a purple Wolf Tooth Club. A black sparrow perched on its left shoulder, Azure Bird on its right, and a small Red Horn snake coiled around its arm. A large bag slung across its back, suggesting a considerable haul.
It was Levi who had rushed over, and to avoid attracting attention, he had already sealed Sokins inside the Gargamel's Book. Otherwise, a level five extraordinary creature would be too conspicuous and inevitably attract the attention of those with ulterior motives. As for the Flying Weasel, Levi was temporarily carrying them on his back in a large bag, and he would release them after passing through the portal.
"Hehehe, all of you get out of my way, I'm going to pass the level!"
Levi chuckled and arrived at the checkpoint.
When the evil dragon attacked, the two wizards fled.
"Run! It's Dragon Spawn!"
"It even brought a bunch of pets with it. It seems it doesn't know that if too many people attempt to pass through this Third Layer at the same time, it will directly trigger the Gale Swordsman's berserk mode... Tsk tsk tsk, let alone a senior Fourth Ring wizard, even a perfect Fourth Ring wizard wouldn't fare well!"
"Dragon Spawn are different from us wizards. They're just a bunch of brute-force lunatics. They definitely didn't do any planning before they came. They just relied on brute force to break through."
"However, if this Dragon Spawn can get through, it should attract the attention of the people blocking the gate on the other side. While the two sides are fighting, we can make a quick getaway... Otherwise, let's give this Dragon Spawn a heads-up so that he can get through."
"Alright."
Just as Levi was preparing to attempt the challenge, the voice of a wizard drifted from behind him.
"That Dragon Spawn over there... oh no, buddy, the guardians on this level adjust their combat strength based on the number of challengers. If you want to get through, I suggest you put down your pets. In the guardians' judgment, these pets are also considered challengers!"
Dragon Spawn turned around, his face contorted with rage, and said:
"Get lost! You look down on us Dragon Spawn, huh? I'm in a good mood right now, so I won't tear you to pieces. Get lost!"
The two wizards in the distance turned pale; their good intentions had been completely wasted.
"Just wait to fail."
"Exactly, these alien races are really arrogant."
The two cursed and swore, preparing to watch Dragon Spawn make a fool of himself.
Levi, with a crooked mouth and carrying Wolf Tooth Club, slowly walked over, exuding an aura of domineering confidence.
In front of the portal.
A female swordsman clad in silver armor began to appear.
Her body was translucent, like a gaseous creature.
Clearly, this is not a true human, but a spirit of the wind element.
She stretched out her hand, and the air currents condensed into a giant sword! At the same time, her aura, which was originally comparable to a senior Fourth Ring cultivator, began to rise until it reached the perfection of the Fourth Ring, infinitely close to the Fifth Ring, before stopping.
Levi shot forward, his Wolf Tooth Club raised high behind him! "Get out of my Gun Kai, you bastard!"
The Wolf Tooth Club swung out! The ultimate brute force, the most straightforward strike! An invisible gust of wind swept through, billowing the female swordsman's long hair and causing her gaseous body to begin to deform! Boom! The Wolf Tooth Club clashed with her longsword!
Click.
With just one strike! Her longsword began to shatter, dispersing into countless streams of air.
The Wolf Tooth Club slammed into her armor, shattering it and sending her flying! The Gale Swordsman was sent flying a thousand meters away, dispersing into a cloud of wind element.
Levi casually stepped inside and disappeared.
The two wizards in the distance were so shocked their jaws nearly dropped to the floor.
"Damn it, why is the Creator so unfair? We've cultivated for hundreds of years, accumulating so many spells, knowledge... all that research, and it's nothing compared to a single blow from this damned alien race! Cultivation, my ass!"
"Quick, stop talking, let's take this opportunity and charge over there!"
The other side of the portal.
Levi stepped out, his face seemingly radiating invincibility, his Dragon Spawn aura fully revealed.
"Finally, we've reached the Fourth Layer."
In my mind, a partial map of the Fourth Layer appeared.
"Next, the first priority is to find the water-type hybrid Dragonkind, and then look for other resources and treasures."
He took a step forward and flew ahead. Just then, a sudden change occurred.
Around Levi, in the shadow dimension, two dark figures attacked, their attacks arriving in an instant!
"Shadow Jaw!"
"Void Piercing Shadow Blade!"
Two Fourth Ring talent spells perfectly surrounded Levi, blocking his movement.
Immediately afterwards, a dense barrage of magical attacks swept in from all directions.
It's obvious that they're very experienced and have done this many times before.
"Tsk tsk tsk, a level four Dragon Spawn, its scales should be usable as Artifact Forging materials." Shadow Dog chuckled as it cast a spell.
"That purple Wolf Tooth Club it was holding just now is quite nice; it must be made of top -Artifact Forging materials. It feels strangely familiar," Shadow Crocodile said.
With their strength, a sneak attack would be devastating, even to the toughest Amethyst Clan, if not Dragon Spawn, if not killed!
A moment later.
A mocking voice suddenly rang out behind Shadow Crocodile and Shadow Dog.
What are you two fighting about?
As the magical fluctuations dissipated, they realized that there was nothing there where they had attacked...
From the Scarlet Darkside, a Black Scale Dragon Spawn flew out, its Wolf Tooth Club swung high in the air!
The clouds in the sky were torn apart by its powerful gusts of wind.
Boom! This blow was earth-shattering!
The Shadow Dog exploded into a bloody mist, utterly dead.
Shadow Crocodile, on the other hand, relied on a magical artifact to dodge the attack.
He stared at the purple staff shadow in front of him and suddenly realized!
"You... you made this Wolf Tooth Club from the body of a Amethyst Clan?"
"You guessed right! You so-called supreme race, you're only fit to be my weapon. And you, you're not worthy of anything!"
Escape! Shadow Crocodile had only one thought! The Dragon Spawn capable of killing the Amethyst Clan was definitely not someone an ordinary Fourth Ring perfectionist like himself could contend with; only a prodigy like him could manage that.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Levi swung his bat again, but this time, he hit a black and red spiral fireball as if he were hitting a baseball!
"Middle!"
A mushroom cloud shot into the sky, and the island trembled.
The Shadow Crocodile was inside; its force field shattered, and the sorcerer's artifact had long since crumbled.
"I am the Shadow Ring..."
A giant hand suddenly appeared, shattered his force field, and removed his head.
"What kind of strength do you have to block the door?" Levi thought disdainfully.
After he emerged from the portal, he used his danger perception to detect that someone was lurking nearby.
He collected his spoils, cleaned up the battlefield, and left.
Not long after, the two wizards on the Third Layer appeared one after the other through the portal.
They stared in shock at the devastated island, scorched by the terrifying heat, and at the departing figure of the Dragon Spawn.
"Tell me, how can one become Dragon Spawn?"
"First, you need to have a dragon dad."
On the other side.
Levi found a place and took stock of the spoils of war.
I've discovered quite a few good things from these two Shadow School wizards.
"The price of Great Stone alone is two million. These two guys seem to have killed quite a few of their fellow wizards in this way... How shameless! Their moral standards are even lower than mine, this Dragon Spawn!"
Besides Great Stone, there are many other resources, including witchcraft artifacts.
Of all these treasures, what pleased Levi the most was that there was actually a piece of [Flame Iron].
This is exactly the level 5 Elemental Metal that Levi needs.
"The Red Dragon Ironcleaver can be reforged now."
As Levi flew, he searched for a suitable place to forge the gold.
The Fourth Layer is a water world resembling Endless Sea.
Many sea creatures roam the ocean.
"Little Baleen Whale, Bloodtooth Shark, Glazed Turtle..."
Along the way, Levi encountered many sea beasts. Although they weren't hybrid Dragonkind, he really wanted to take them back and raise them.
Unfortunately, the Alice's Ring couldn't be opened. This left him quite disappointed, sighing in vain at the sight of the "beast"! After leaving the teleportation portal for thousands of miles, Levi found a small island with a volcano, set up a magic array, and began his secluded blacksmithing training.
Three months have passed quickly.
The sky above the small island.
Every now and then, the flight paths of wizards or other races would streak across the Firmament.
There are more wizards staying on the Fourth Layer than on the Third Layer.
The Fifth Layer is a major hurdle; those who can enter are either members of top-tier organizations, or are themselves Fifth Ring wizards, or Fourth Ring- circle wizards at their peak.
Ordinary senior wizards of the Fourth Ring cannot even get in. Many wizards who have managed to reach the Fourth Layer by luck are stuck here.
If viewed from God's perspective in this water world, one would find that all the ocean currents in the Fourth Layer converge towards the center.
The center of the world.
Ocean currents from all directions converge and surge into the sky, forming a pillar of ocean currents thousands of miles wide. The top of the currents radiates outwards, resembling World Tree.
At the top of the World Tree lies a colossal island surrounded by a cluster of floating islets. Though called an island, it is as vast as a continent. Explorers refer to it as the "Sea Continent." The ring of islands surrounding the continent is known as the "Star Ring Islands."
Besides the vast overseas territory, half of the resource points on the Fourth Layer are located on these floating islands.
Competition here is fierce, and key resource points are mostly monopolized by Fourth Ring- ring or even Fifth Ring wizards. Every now and then, figures leave the mainland, fleeing across the sea, clearly defeated in the competition and being hunted by enemies.
The edge of the sea.
A secluded volcanic island.
Levi toiled away, sweating profusely. After countless trials, the brand-new crimson longsword hummed before him, its Red Emperor Dragon Totem growing ever more lifelike.
After being reforged, the Red Dragon Ironcleaver has undergone a complete transformation, entirely different from before. Its divine weapon level has reached level four! This means that the power boost this divine weapon provides to Levi has reached a terrifying 50%!
"Red Dragon Ironcleaver as my trump card and don't show it to others easily. With my current strength, the Black Dragon Rod can wipe out most of the enemies on the Fourth Layer."
Levi left the island and released the Flying Weasel from the large bag on his back.
He said, "Go, go to this vast sea, you will be my eyes!"
"Yes, Lord Kamaitachi."
The Kamaitachi is the god of this tribe of Flying Weasel.
Levi could sense everything these Flying Weasel saw and heard.
With these, Levi's efficiency in finding resources, treasures, and extraordinary creatures will be greatly enhanced.
He released Sokins.
"Go to the floating islands in the center, indulge yourself, rob as much as you want... Don't worry, I'll be following you secretly and protecting you."
Sokins was incredibly clever; he immediately understood what Levi meant, and gestured with his giant pincers.
Levi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not lying to you. Those people are covered in Gold Coins... If not, I'll compensate you double when we get back to my hometown!"
The Big Blue Crab immediately brandished its massive pincers, took off on the wind, and flew away impatiently.
Levi, carrying Wolf Tooth Club Hermit Rune flashing, disappeared into the sea.
