The weapon-refining room.

Levi concentrated intently on crafting the nine tassel ribbons along the edge of the Sky Burning Ancient Umbrella. This would be the Sky Burning Ancient Umbrella's primary means of attack.

In this way, another half month passed.

The last day of 1204.

Flames soared into the sky on Dragon Palace Island.

Within the light, nine faint phantom images of Red Dragon could be seen, disappearing in a flash.

"Hahaha, such an extraordinary phenomenon occurred when the artifact was completed; it must be a top-grade item."

Levi's maniacal laughter echoed from the weapon-refining room.

"If it weren't for the Ouroboros Ring's teleportation spell, this so-called top-grade magical artifact would be utterly worthless before my Sky Burning Ancient Umbrella!"

Levi, holding a red ancient umbrella, slowly ascended into the sky.

This ancient umbrella exudes a hazy, precious light; it's clearly no ordinary item!

The umbrella's surface was sewn from the toughest part of the chest hide of a level-five hybrid Dragonkind, the Black Fire Flying Dragon. As a being standing at the pinnacle of hybrid Dragonkind, the quality of the Black Fire Flying Dragon's hide was absolutely guaranteed. Moreover, Levi added many rare materials to enhance its defensive capabilities! A defensive spell, which Levi considered to be of the highest quality within the Combustion Faction, called the Red Dragon Barrier, was solidified on it.

This Red Dragon Barrier is not a spell already used by the Combustion Faction.

It was Levi's original Fifth Ring Protective Force Field spell, created after he advanced to the Fifth Ring, in order to forge a witch artifact for the Holy Infant. He combined his knowledge and skills to create the spell.

It could be said that he learned his Fifth Ring Protective Force Field incidentally in order to refine this magical artifact. Otherwise, given his current defensive capabilities, there would be no need for him to learn the Protective Force Field.

The Red Dragon Barrier's protective capabilities are comparable to those of Earth and Ocean Faction magic specializing in defense. Within the Combustion Faction, it truly deserves the title of "top-tier spell."

With such defensive spells, plus the umbrella's own powerful defensive capabilities, the Holy Infant's own Protective Force Field, and the "Fire Elemental Body" damage reduction properties, it has the advantage of being able to withstand such attacks.

With these four layers of protection, there are not many people on the Ai Ou Continent who can break through its defenses in an instant.

If the Holy Infant accidentally provokes such a powerful enemy, then Levi himself would only be putting himself in danger if he went there.

The umbrella ribs, needless to say, were forged from the strongest bones of the strange bird, combined with a portion of level-five Elemental Metal, and solidified with numerous spells.

There are nine umbrella ribs in total, and each rib is connected to a red tassel along its edge.

These tassels, crafted from the nine tail feathers of a strange bird, are the essence of this umbrella.

Levi handed the umbrella to the Holy Infant, Holy Infant held it in his hand, and the umbrella automatically shrank to match his size.

In the blink of an eye, the ancient umbrella can return to its body.

The Holy Infant, holding an ancient umbrella, flew into the high heavens, softly uttering a single syllable.

"Twin Dragons!"

Then, the two tassels on the ancient umbrella suddenly burst into flames, and two fiery dragons radiating the power of the Fifth Ring swept over, exploding in the air!

The energy of the flames is unleashed in a frenzy!

The power of even a single fire dragon is something that an ordinary Fifth Ring wizard cannot withstand.

With the help of this treasure, the Holy Infant can emit multiple beams simultaneously.

In theory, the Holy Infant can rely on this treasure to simultaneously unleash nine fire dragons to attack enemies.

Levi calls this move "Nine Dragons Tribulation!"

Of course, this move consumes a lot of Art Power. Even if the innate spell saves Art Power compared to the ordinary spell, Levi, who has just entered the Fifth Ring, can only use "Nine Dragons Tribulation" twice! The Holy Infant uttered syllables.

"Nine Dragons!"

A vast and unparalleled Art Power surged from the Holy Infant's body, flowing into the ancient umbrella in his hand. The umbrella trembled and hummed, all nine tassels ignited, and nine crimson fire dragons appeared out of the sky, then all hurtled towards a distant island! Boom! The nine fire dragons exploded simultaneously, the flames turning the Firmament crimson!

The small island, roughly a mile in circumference, vanished without a trace under this attack. The shockwave from the explosion swept across an area of several miles, evaporating the seawater and even creating a small tsunami that spread outwards! "Who can withstand this attack?"

Levi summoned his Three Brothers, while the Holy Infant stood still, allowing the Three Brothers to attack! Suddenly, the ancient umbrella began to spin, and a crimson dragon appeared, layer upon layer, forming a barrier that protected the Holy Infant within.

Then, the ancient umbrella was put away, protecting the Holy Infant from all sides!

Boom, boom, boom! The Three Brothers ' breath and seismic waves all rushed towards the Holy Infant.

The Red Dragon Barrier the Holy Infant trembled continuously; one layer broke, but another remained.

The Holy Infant hid under the umbrella, and in an instant, two golden rings appeared on his arms and wrists.

He drew circles with both hands, a blue light flashed, and the void trembled! Before the second layer of force field shattered, a void portal made of sparks appeared, and the Holy Infant stepped into it and disappeared.

Hundreds of miles away, the Holy Infant's figure appeared, a golden ring appeared beneath his feet, and wind and fire spun around him, like Nezha's Wind Fire Wheels. He transformed into a streak of crimson light and disappeared into the horizon, his speed far exceeding the Holy Infant's normal flight.

The Three Brothers were completely bewildered, having no idea what had happened.

Not long after, the Holy Infant reappeared, throwing out the [Red Dragon Ring]. As the ring spun, it grew larger in the wind, transforming into a crimson dragon with its head and tail connected, enveloping all Three Brothers within it.

"Receive!"

The next moment, the crimson dragon continued to condense and shrink! Caught off guard, the Three Brothers were directly bound together and collided with a loud crash.

However, being a three-headed Dragon Spawn, their bodies rippled with seismic waves, quickly shattering the crimson dragon.

The crimson dragon dissipated, and a ring returned to the Holy Infant's body.

But in that brief moment, the Holy Infant could either escape or launch a fatal attack.

After a series of smooth and efficient maneuvers, Levi revealed a satisfied smile.

This is the "Holy Infant Three Treasures" that he painstakingly crafted, expending considerable effort and time.

With the three artifacts combined and the divine talisman at their command, Levi believed that even if the Holy Infant encountered Fifth Ring perfect wizard, he could leave unharmed.

Of the three artifacts, the Sky Burning Ancient Umbrella and the Extreme Fire Light Wheel are undoubtedly top-tier magical artifacts in terms of materials, craftsmanship, and function. The Red Dragon Ring is slightly inferior, but it is still definitely a fine example of the Fifth Ring.

These three artifacts are not only the Holy Infant's magical artifacts, but also Levi's main magical artifacts in the future. It's just that the Holy Infant is using them temporarily. After he advances to the Origin Soul stage, he may be able to upgrade the Sky Burning Ancient Umbrella into the Holy Infant's natal soul artifact!

The three artifacts contain tracking methods left by Levi, incorporating his knowledge of magic arrays. In case the Holy Infant is indeed Gold Coins by a powerful enemy, if the enemy is within Li Wei's reach, he can retaliate and retrieve the artifacts; if the enemy is too strong, then forget it, his life is more important.

In addition, there are hidden doors in the three artifacts. Unless the enemy has a magic array or a higher level of Artifact Forging knowledge than Levi, it will be difficult to break through them, and even if they obtain them, they will not be able to use them.

"That's all for now. We can let the Holy Infant go on his journey. I'll just wait at home for his good news."

Over the years, Levi has been busy forging weapons to arm the Holy Infant and has not paid much attention to the outside world.

He noticed a message on his communication device from the wizard Biggs, asking if he wanted to join the White-Robed Wizard Society.

After thinking it over, Levi declined, and suggested that the Holy Infant volunteer himself.

The next day.

The first day of the Month of Origin in the year 1205 of the Holy Radiance Calendar.

The Dark Ancient Tower has been running for 40 years.

Here, Levi underwent a transformation in his strength, but the transformation was not yet over.

He believed that as long as he returned alive from the Ancient Tower, he would become the pinnacle of existence in the Wizard World, aside from the Origin Soul.

When his Origin Soul is fully awakened, perhaps that will be the day he becomes famous throughout the world.

Today is the 104th Round Table Conference of the Twilight Knight Order.

Levi was in a great mood and logged on early, waiting for the others to arrive.

Knight such as Hundred Flowers, Holy Ape, Golden Lion arrived one after another.

In the end, only the Divine Light Knight remained.

"Hmm, where is the Divine Light Knight?" Levi asked.

"The Divine Light Knight went into seclusion some time ago," said the Golden Lion Knight.

"Commander, I'm here!" The Divine Light Knight rushed over, sat down in a chair, and couldn't hide his joy.

Sensing the different spirit of the Divine Light Knight, Levi was also invigorated.

"Congratulations! You have become the third Knight to advance to level four."

The Divine Light Knight said, "Thank you, Commander. I have just broken through and have not yet been able to stabilize my state of mind. I was a little out of control."

Levi said, "It's alright, it's only natural. In the future, you can ask for leave in this situation. Consolidating your cultivation level is the top priority, attending meetings is the second."

"What? Denise, you're level four too?" The Black Knight asked with some envy. Denise was his junior, joining relatively late among the older generation of members. Yet, in the Way of the Knight, she had surpassed them. But there was no way around it; dual cultivation would inevitably cause some delays, but the advantage was that his methods were more diverse.

"The Divine Light Knight, like me, has no wizarding talent, so he can only focus on the way of the Knight, which naturally makes him progress faster," said the Ash Knight.

"Indeed, being single-minded will naturally make you faster, but after level four, cultivation becomes much more difficult. It won't be long before you all catch up with me," said the Divine Light Knight.

The Black Knight sighed, "With my wizarding talent, I'll be lucky to become Third-Ring Wizard in the future. Any further, the effort and reward will be disproportionate. At that time, I will focus on the way of Knight, and the way of wizardry will be left to fate. When the way of Knight is strong enough to gain a foothold in the Wizard World, it can then drive the way of wizardry."

The Holy Ape Knight wholeheartedly agreed, saying, "Indeed, for us, the path of wizardry is more about mastering practical spells to compensate for the shortcomings of Knight. We don't expect to become strong through wizardry; our focus remains on being Knight... However, with Elsa and Dinos's talents, they should be able to go further on the path of wizardry. As for Andrew, needless to say, this young man's future achievements are destined to surpass those of us old folks."

Andrew smiled and said, "You flatter me, senior."

Everyone was in high spirits, Levi said, "Divine Light Knight, please demonstrate your Dharma form to facilitate our future team operations."

"Yes, Commander."

The Divine Light Knight closed her eyes, and the next moment, a beautiful Peacock- like bird appeared behind her. The bird circled in the air, trailing long, colorful tail feathers that radiated Five-Colored Divine Light!

The Divine Light Knight said solemnly, "My Dharma form is called the Five-Colored Divine Bird, which can release Five- Five-Colored Divine Light. It has two functions."

Firstly, it can heal injuries and enhance physical constitution, though its effect is not as strong as the Ash Knight's [Deathly Still Dragon]. However, my healing not only heals myself, but also all comrades within the range of my Five-Colored Divine Light. Secondly, the Five-Colored Divine Light can also condense into a blood barrier, providing a certain degree of protection.

Levi was overjoyed. Wasn't this the most important and classic role in team battles... the healer?

He laughed and said, "A very powerful Dharma form. In the future, when we fight as a group, we will be inseparable from your Five-Colored Divine Light."

"That's right. This ability to heal rapidly over a wide area is a skill possessed by only a few people in the Wizard World!" the Golden Lion Knight exclaimed.

The Divine Light Knight smiled slightly, feeling a little embarrassed by the praise.

The Ash Knight added, "In team battles, my [Deathly Still Dragon] can weaken the enemy's physique and prevent them from healing themselves. Combined with Denise's [Five-Colored Divine Light], the balance of power might allow us to defeat the stronger enemy."

"You can practice together more often. In the great era to come, our Knight cannot remain aloof forever. We must always be ready for battle!" Levi said.

"What a vibrant team!" the Hundred Flower Knight exclaimed. She looked forward to her own Bloodline Avatar, and even more so to the future of this organization!

After the meeting.

Levi spent a month sparring with the Holy Infant, allowing it to continuously refine its skills with the Three Witchcraft Artifacts and enhance its combat capabilities.

This day.

Dragon Palace Island, the sun shines brightly and a gentle sea breeze blows.

The Holy Infant, carrying Levi's earnest expectations, left Dragon Palace Island.

Levi watched the Holy Infant leave, like an old father sending his son to school, and lingered for a long time.

"It seems like the Holy Infant has grown a little taller, but maybe it's just my imagination... Ai Ou is so big, let the Holy Infant witness it for me."

Levi returned to his secluded retreat; what lay ahead was a long journey of cultivation.

In terms of Breathing Technique, the Golden Snake is getting closer and closer to the Seventeenth-Order, and will inevitably become Levi's main focus next.

The Red Emperor Dragon and the Sky Dragon have also progressed more than halfway, but compared to the Golden Snake who is cultivating using two Dragon Spawn, their progress is much slower. The Golden Snake has also fallen far behind in the realms of other Breathing Technique.

"For my level of Breathing Technique, if I want to cultivate faster in the future, I need to find Dragon Spawn. This task also needs to be done by the Holy Infant. After finding it, my true self will go and subdue it."

Levi placed his hand on the Klein Crystal.

[Mental Strength: 666/1070]

"The path of the wizard is one of steady improvement, progressing step by step. The number 666 is indeed auspicious. It seems the Holy Infant will reap great rewards on this journey!"

After the Fifth Ring, the other wizards' cultivation became increasingly difficult. Levi began to overtake them on a shortcut.

"Those top geniuses have been at the Fifth Ring for twenty or thirty years now. I wonder how their mental strength compares to mine?"

Levi has now been at the Fifth Ring for about ten years. He has already created Fifth Ring Protective Force Field, and his next task is to research innate spells. This is not urgent; it will take a long time to reach the pinnacle of his spiritual power, and Levi has ample time for research.

Today, there are seven major elemental factions: Earth-Fire Wind-Water, Water, Frost, Thunder, and Bronze.

Levi has already collected six types, so the next seventh talent will naturally be the Bronze Faction.

"My current offensive spells are limited to Fire Dragon Tribulation, which is too simplistic. The Bronze Faction excels in both offense and defense... However, my defense below the Origin Soul level is already nearing saturation. Even if I add ten more layers of defense, I still can't contend with Origin Soul. Only Origin Soul can fight against Origin Soul. Moreover, the Golden Snake will soon reach the Seventeenth-Order, at which point my defensive capabilities will increase again. Simply stacking armor won't work; I need to diversify my offensive methods. I'll start with the Bronze Faction for my seventh talent, researching a talent spell that suits my characteristics. Hmm, it has to be cool, like Ai Niya's ' Flying Sword '."

The sword immortal who can take a person's head from a thousand miles away on his sword has always been the path that Levi has been trying to replicate in the Wizard World.

His Three Thousand Feather Blades have a relatively short attack range, only able to hover around the Three-Headed Dragon God, and cannot be considered true Flying Sword.

The spells he's about to study need to be able to hit far and accurately, and their power shouldn't be too weak. In other words, they should be able to stay at home and launch precise, targeted strikes against the enemy.

"I do have some of the Bronze Faction spells, but not many. I'll try to squeeze some money out of Ai Niya next."

One month later.

Sea of Stars.

The White-Robed Wizard Society.

The Dark Beast Tide is nearing its end.

On the lake, the corpses of low-level black beasts can be seen everywhere.

A group of wizards are burning the black beast's corpse to prevent it from contaminating the elemental power of the place.

"Honestly, this chore has been assigned to us."

"Be content. This kind of work is safe and you can earn Great Stone. Isn't that great?"

"Yes, with our current strength, it's impossible for us to obtain precious resources or rare items inside the Ancient Tower. Earning some Great Stone and returning to the Wizard World would be a good option."

The wizards chatted idly.

A red-robed wizard descended from the sky.

This wizard was tall and slender, with a youthful appearance. He was dressed in a magnificent and luxurious outfit, with a fiery robe and long, fiery red hair, giving him a charmingly wicked yet handsome air.

It was the Holy Infant.

The Holy Infant's original appearance was too distinctive, so in order to make it easier for him to travel around Ai Ou and reduce the possibility of him being wanted by the Empire Mage, Levi had him change his appearance.

As for Gandalf's pseudonym, Levi doesn't plan to use it for the time being. Those people use Gandalf as their soul to call on other rogue cultivators to join, which doesn't mean they really respect Gandalf.

If Levi were to foolishly join as Gandalf, he would not only appear unrefined, but he would also easily attract unwanted attention. After all, Gandalf is a famous figure.

"Excuse me, I would like to join the White-Robed Wizard Society. Who should I contact?" The Holy Infant released a slight fluctuation of mental energy, typical of Fifth Ring wizard.

The Fourth Ring Wizard below paled and hurriedly asked, "May I ask your honorable name, sir? Do you have someone to invite you?"

This red-haired wizard was handsome and clearly extraordinary.

"No," the Holy Infant said.

"My name is Mia. Please tell me your name, and I will have someone from the base come to pick you up." A witch with perfect Fourth Ring cultivation smiled charmingly. Her attire was quite exotic, and her clothes were bold and revealing as she flaunted her charm.

The Holy Infant was still a child and naturally wouldn't be affected by these things. He said, "My Ace, you can call me the Fire Dragon Wizard."

Ace was the name of the fire elementalist who retired from Levi, and the Holy Infant took it without any hesitation.

"Yes, Lord Ace." After sending the message, the witch Mia's eyes kept glancing at the Holy Infant.

While waiting, Levi watched them burn the black beasts and asked, "Are all these black beast corpses burned?"

Mia said, "Yes, if these black beast corpses are not dealt with quickly, they will release corrosive power and easily contaminate the elemental power. The best way is to burn them. So recently the organization has hired a lot of Combustion Faction wizards like me to deal with these corpses."

Levi felt it was a waste, but he couldn't say anything.

He couldn't possibly tell anyone that he had a method for disposing of the black beast corpses, as that would only put him in danger. Besides, he currently couldn't purify the black beast corpses on Fa Da; he could only process the precious ones, the ones intended for use in weapon forging.

Not long after.

A figure in white robes hurried over, and the Holy Infant realized that it was someone he knew.

Extreme Ice Wizard.

"You must be the Fire Dragon Wizard. I am the Extreme Ice Wizard. Please follow me." The Extreme Ice Wizard still had a smile on his face.

Since they had only met by chance, and the Holy Infant's signature fire element wasn't present, he didn't recognize the fire dragon as the Holy Infant.

Thank you.

The Holy Infant followed the Extreme Ice Wizard all the way to Gandalf Island.

He gazed at the tall, imposing statue and thought to himself, "Not bad, it captures the spirit of the statue."

" For Fifth Ring wizard to join the White-Robed Wizard Society, the three elders' approval is required. Today, the interviewers for you are Wizard Farrar, Red Bone Wizard, and Rust Dragon Wizard," Extreme Ice introduced.

The Holy Infant was speechless to himself. "Three interviewers, and two of them are acquaintances. This luck is incredible..."

Council chamber.

The three wizards, all at the fifth level of the Fifth Ring, sat upright, creating a rather solemn atmosphere.

Upon the arrival of the Holy Infant, a slight look of tension appeared on his face. This was the typical reaction of an ordinary Fifth Ring wizard facing three Fifth Ring perfect experts.

He noticed that the Red Bone Wizard's spiritual power seemed to be much greater than before, probably close to 1000.

Farrar is slightly inferior, but still far superior to himself.

What he couldn't understand the most was the Dragonkin Wizard with a single black horn on his forehead.

It is said that this wizard has lived for a thousand years, which is the normal lifespan limit for Fifth Ring. However, judging from his appearance, Old God, and it is clear that his time has not yet come.

"Indeed, Dragonkin Wizard have a longer lifespan than ordinary wizards, making them practically Long-Lived Species. In that case, my lifespan should theoretically be even longer; perhaps even Sixth Ring wizard won't live as long as I have..." the Holy Infant murmured to himself.

"Your Excellency, you are surely aware of the rules of our White-Robed Wizard Society Guild. We do not treat Rogue Wizard as slaves like those top organizations. However, we also hope that your joining us is based on a cooperative and mutually beneficial attitude, rather than harboring other ulterior motives... Otherwise, we, the Five Elders, will not hesitate to take action," said the Rust Dragon Wizard.

"I understand. I'm here mainly to band together for mutual support and to use this wizard market to exchange for the resources I need. I also don't approve of the top wizard organizations," said the Holy Infant.

"Our Wizarding Guild's Fifth Ring wizards are divided into three tiers. The first tier is our Five Elders Hall, all of whom are at the peak of the Fifth Ring, responsible for overall coordination. The second tier is the White Robe Hall, where any senior Fifth Ring wizard can join; currently, there are ten members. The Third Layer is the Gray Robe Hall, comprised of ordinary Fifth Ring wizards, totaling twenty-four. With your strength, we will assign you a seat in the Gray Robe Hall. You can cultivate normally here; as long as you don't violate market order, there are no restrictions. You will also receive a certain amount of Great Stone as compensation each year. However, if the organization encounters a crisis, we will need your assistance," said the Rust Dragon Wizard.

The Holy Infant nodded in agreement.

The Five Elders, the White Robe, and the Gray Robe Hall are all high-ranking officials, differing only in status, reflecting the difference in their strength.

After successfully joining, the Extreme Ice Wizard took the Holy Infant to the Gray Robe Hall. After receiving an Identity Plate, the Extreme Ice Wizard took out a map and handed it to the Holy Infant.

"The Sea of Stars is extremely vast, and what we White-Robed Wizard Society occupy is merely the tip of the iceberg. The green areas on the map represent the explored areas, and their resources have already been thoroughly plundered. The black areas are those still being explored, and generally, they are not very dangerous. As for the red areas, because they contain many powerful black beasts or other dangers, even Fifth Ring wizards usually need to explore them in teams. It is best if you do not go alone."

The Holy Infant looked grateful and said, "Thank you for the reminder."

This Extreme Ice Wizard left a good impression. During the previous exploration of the ruins, he was kind and honest, making sure the path was clear.

The Holy Infant randomly chose a relatively remote uninhabited island in the green zone to set up Sanctuary. This island had a place with earth fire, which was suitable for him to cultivate and refine weapons.

He put up a sign on the island.

[Gray Robe Hall, the Fire Dragon Wizard's Home. Please do not disturb without an invitation.]

Star Market.

The market is located on the largest island in the center of the settlement. To facilitate trading, this is the only market in the entire Sea of Stars.

The Holy Infant wore Gray Robe Hall plaque around his neck, and the wizards in the marketplace saw it and showed him genuine respect.

It is thanks to the Fifth Ring Wizards that these independent cultivators have not been wiped out by the top-tier wizarding organizations, and are still able to explore treasure lands and search for resources within the Sea of Stars. Of course, to stay here, they also need to pay a certain amount of Great Stone and resources each year as operating funds for the Wizarding Guild and as compensation for the Fifth Ring Wizards. In case of emergencies, they must also obey the management of the Fifth Ring Wizards.

"The purchasing power of Great Stone here is not bad. Next, we can purchase a batch of rare materials for Talisman Making and my three wizarding arts. These 20 million Great Stone need to be converted into combat power."

Levi strolled around and discovered that many Fifth Ring wizards had opened shops here.

"The Dwarf Home is selling large quantities of Fourth Ring- and Fifth Ring Wizard Artifact... Dwarven sorcerer artifacts, truly awe-inspiring!"

"Fire Bull Shop sells black market witchcraft items. Please do not disturb if you mind."

"Magical Beasts Shop is buying up large quantities of animal eggs..."

Looking at the dazzling array of shops, Levi pondered in his heart.

"I think I'll open a small shop too, and find a reliable person to run it for me."

Every Fifth Ring wizard is entitled to one shop for free. Levi arrived late, and all the good spots were taken, so he had to choose a random shop.

"Ace, we meet again." The witch Mia greeted him as she passed by.

The Holy Infant knew this woman's little scheme; she simply wanted to curry favor with him.

A thought struck him, and he smiled, "Miss Mia, would you like to come in and have a seat?"

"My lord, is it alright?" Mia asked excitedly.

"Come in."

Inside the small shop.

"Miss Mia, I plan to open a Artifact Forging shop here and need a lady with an excellent image and temperament to manage and sell it. What do you think? Of course, I won't let you work for free. As long as you complete my task targets, you will receive generous rewards. Believe me, it will definitely be better than you going on an adventure in the Sea of Stars," said the Holy Infant.

After saying that, the Holy Infant casually took out a circular witch artifact with a Fire Phoenix carved on it.

"This magical artifact is called the Phoenix Ring. Consider it a gift for Miss Mia. It's Fourth Ring magical artifact that I crafted when I was bored." The Holy Infant casually presented a magical artifact.

Mia was breathing rapidly. Although she was at the Fourth Ring of perfection, she only had one Fourth Ring magical artifact of average quality. This was the predicament of a rogue cultivator.

The Phoenix Ring in front of me looks to be of excellent quality.

She carefully put it away and said solemnly, "I never expected that you would value Mia so much. I am more than willing!"

After signing the contract, the Holy Infant said, "This little shop will be called [Fire Dragon Cottage]. It will sell some witch artifacts of the Fourth Ring and above. However, we don't accept Great Stone; we only need rare materials of equivalent value. Here is a list of some materials." The Holy Infant handed the stone tablet to Mia.

Mia patted her chest, guaranteeing that she would complete the mission.

Then, the Holy Infant left behind a pile of unused magical artifacts and departed.

Some of these magical artifacts were practice pieces made by Levi, while others were spoils of war suitable for sale.

The Fire Dragon Cottage is now open for business.

A sign was hanging outside.

[Selling wizard artifacts of the Fourth Ring and above. Great Stone buys Elemental Metal, biological materials of level four and above, or clues about the presence of extraordinary creatures without limit; accepting custom orders for wizard artifacts of the Fifth Ring and above. Required to bring materials and blueprints. Transaction details to be discussed in person. —Fire Dragon Wizard Ace (Fifth Ring Artifact Forging Maker)]

In the first few days after opening, the shop was deserted. After all, the Fire Dragon Wizard was new to the area, and there were many shops, making the competition fierce.

At this point, the witch Mia fully utilized her social skills, using her beauty and silver tongue to lure some wizards to stop and listen.

"These [Extreme Fire Lightning Boots] are nice, how much?"

"This is a Fourth Ring magical artifact. You can exchange it for materials of equal value," Mia said, striking a pose.

The wizard paced back and forth in front of the shop, seemingly making a decision.

He had previously obtained a piece of level-five wind Elemental Metal, which he had been reluctant to sell. Now, seeing this magical artifact, which was extremely suitable for him, he was somewhat swayed.

"Never mind, keeping them in my pocket won't enhance my combat power, but these boots have definitely improved my ability to survive."

Finally, he entered the shop, completed the transaction, and left satisfied.

Mia breathed a sigh of relief, "The first transaction is a level 5 metal. It seems that I have a good chance of exceeding my mission goals. I wonder what reward Lord Ace will give me?"

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

After selling the first magical artifact, the Fire Dragon Cottage sold about one item per week, eventually down to one per month. Ultimately, the market was too small. However, the Holy Infant was quite satisfied. Once the market for magical artifacts was saturated, he would sell other unused resources to exchange for the resources he needed.

Over the past six months, he has used his position to gather information at the market.

The Holy Infant has gained a preliminary understanding of the current situation of Ai Ou.

One of these intelligence reports caught his attention.

Dragon Valley.

This is a newly discovered Confluence Land located in the Holy Fire Plateau.

It is said that many hybrid Dragonkind, and even sub -Dragon Spawn, live there.

There is even a Black Lotus Beast, which is known as the "strongest Dragon Spawn".

This is the Dragonkind closest to the Red Lotus Dragon, and its Bloodline Essence is the most suitable Secret Medicine for cultivating the Crimson Emperor Dragon Breathing Technique! According to current information, the existence of the Black Lotus Beast is real and not a hoax.

However, so far, those who have ventured into it have almost certainly died.

"The Black Lotus Beast is too powerful. Even if I went in person, I might not be able to defeat it. It would be much safer if the Golden Snake and the Red Emperor Dragon were both at the Seventeenth-Order."

We must get our hands on this Black Lotus Beast!

The strongest Dragon Spawn, with unparalleled combat power, barring its untimely demise, advancing to level eight in the future is no problem; it will become the number one general of the Dragon Palace!...

Time flies like an arrow, and the days pass like a shuttle.

A year has passed.

The year 1206 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Flowers.

Because of the Fire Dragon Cottage, the identity of the Holy Infant Fifth Ring Artifact Forging Maker gradually became widely known.

Some Fifth Ring wizards began contacting the Fire Dragon Wizard through Mia to commission custom orders.

This day, Fire Dragon Island.

A red-haired witch, dressed in a fiery robe, with a curvaceous figure and an imposing aura, arrived, arm in arm with another blue-haired witch.

"Is the Fire Dragon Wizard here? The Red Dragon Queen of the White Robe Hall has come to pay her a visit."

After a while...

The young and handsome red-haired wizard opened the door and said with a smile, "So it's the two great beauties, the Red Dragon Queen and the Blue Dragon Lady. I've long admired your names, but I've been busy Artifact Forging and haven't had a chance to pay you a visit."

Holy Infant exchanged pleasantries, he caught a glimpse of Blue Dragon Lady out of the corner of his eye and felt a pang of emotion.

One hundred and fifty years ago, when Levi was still Second-Ring Wizard, the other party was already Fifth Ring senior.

Now, times have changed, and he has caught up and reached the Fifth Ring.

Although the opponent has also made some progress, they are still far from achieving the perfect Fifth Ring.

Even a genius like Blue Dragon Lady has been trapped in this realm for hundreds of years. Blue Dragon Lady could never have imagined that the once insignificant worker from Torrent City would now stand before her, on equal footing.

"Aren't you going to invite us sisters in to talk?" the Red Dragon Queen said with a smile. The Blue Dragon Lady looked at the Holy Infant but remained silent.

"Please come in quickly."

Council chamber.

"I would like to ask you to forge a Fifth Ring Wizard Artifact for me," the Red Dragon Queen said bluntly.

The Holy Infant asked in confusion, "I've heard that Lord Silver Beard of the Five Elders Hall and his apprentice Biggs are both Fifth Ring Artifact Forging, and also rare dwarves. As everyone knows, dwarf products are always of the highest quality. Why have you come to me?"

Although the Fire Dragon Wizard is somewhat famous, he is still far inferior to Silverbeard, who is at the Fifth Ring of the Silver Beard.

The Red Dragon Queen said helplessly, "I wish I could, but Silver Beard has been missing from the Sea of Stars for some time now. It is said that he has found a secluded place to break through his Origin Soul. Moreover, I probably don't have enough resources to invite such a big shot as Silver Beard... As for his apprentice, I have compared the magical artifacts you two have crafted and found that yours is better."

The Holy Infant said, "It's no problem for me to forge artifacts, but you need to provide the materials and Artifact Forging yourself. Also, for non- Combustion Faction magical artifacts, I will only be responsible for Artifact Forging blank; you will have to do the final spell solidification yourself. In addition, I do not accept Great Stone."

Generally, when crafting non-standard magical artifacts, the Artifact Forging makes the most important and complex basic artifact, while the client adds the final spell according to their needs.

The Red Dragon Queen nodded. "I understand these rules. As a Artifact Forging, you must be well-off. This is the payment I'm making."

As she spoke, she pulled a transparent jar from the dragon-shaped necklace pendant buried in her chest.

Within it, a creature resembling an earthworm was wriggling. On the surface of the earthworm's body, yellowish-brown runes of truth shimmered; this was a Truth Wonder.

"Judging from the runes, this should be an Earth-type Earth-level Truth Wonder. As for its name and function, I don't know. I belong to the Combustion Faction, and my sisters belong to the Frost Faction. We haven't used this artifact since we obtained it. Although you belong to the Combustion Faction, you can exchange it for this. How about it? Are you satisfied with my reward?" the Red Dragon Queen said confidently.

With her and the Blue Dragon's combined strength, they were enough to contend with Fifth Ring perfect wizard, so naturally they weren't worried about the Fire Dragon Wizard killing them to steal their treasures.

"Okay, what do you want to refine?"

Levi would never miss an opportunity to acquire a rare item, even one of earth-quality quality, as it might give rise to a minor masterpiece.

The Red Dragon Queen handed the design drawings to Levi.

"These are the blueprints for the [Ice and Fire Twin Secret Swords], which are divided into the [Magma Secret Sword] and the [Freezing Ice Secret Sword]. What I need you to forge is the blank of the [Magma Secret Sword]. I wonder if you are confident? The difficulty of this magical weapon is incomparable to that of ordinary standard magical weapons."

She didn't actually have high hopes; she was just giving it a try. In her opinion, the only person in the entire Sea of Stars qualified to forge this magical artifact was the dwarf Silver Beard.

"Seventy percent chance of getting a high-quality item, and twenty percent chance of getting a top-quality item," the Holy Infant said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the Red Dragon Queen felt a sliver of doubt; she sensed that the Fire Dragon Wizard was exaggerating to attract customers.

"Sir, are you absolutely certain you have a 70% chance of producing a masterpiece?"

The Holy Infant shrugged and said, "If you don't trust me, then forget it."

The Red Dragon looked at the Blue Dragon, and the Blue Dragon said, "It seems you have no other choice. Let's go with him."

"Deal! I hope you won't disappoint me. If you succeed in refining it, this wondrous item will be yours; if you fail, the discarded materials will belong to you," said the Red Dragon Queen.

The Holy Infant smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, failure is impossible, and your materials won't be wasted."

After the contract was signed, the Red Dragon Queen waved her hand, and a pile of incredibly hot level 5 metal landed in front of Levi. It was [Molten Flow Ore], which was also the main material for Levi to forge the Red Dragon Ring.

"Then we won't disturb you any longer. If there are any materials left over after the refining is completed, consider them as extra compensation for you." The Red Dragon Queen was quite generous.

After saying that, he took the Queen's arm and left.

The Holy Infant watched the two women leave, lost in thought.

Upon arriving home, the Red Dragon Queen embraced the Blue Dragon Lady's slender waist and said expectantly:

"If that person can truly forge a superior-grade [Magma Secret Sword], and combine it with your top-grade [Freezing Ice Secret Sword], along with our dual cultivation technique, it should be enough to go to the Ice and Fire Secret Realm, slay that peak level 5 ice elemental, and obtain those two Truth Wonder. Then we can refine them within the secret realm, and before long, we can reach the Fifth Ring perfection... In that case, we might even be able to glimpse the Origin Soul Realm!"

Blue Dragon Lady nodded and said, "I hope so. The Dark Ancient Tower is our last chance."

Time flies, and another six months have passed.

On the Ai Ou Continent, wizards in many small Confluence Land were suddenly attacked by Empire Mage, resulting in heavy casualties.

Of the escaped wizards, a small number joined top organizations, while the rest came to the increasingly renowned White-Robed Wizard Society.

The year 1206 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of the North Wind.

At the Star Market, Mia is full of energy, using all her skills to attract customers and manage her small shop.

Through the Fire Dragon Cottage, the Holy Infant used Great Stone to acquire a lot of resources, which will help him refine the Nicholas God Model in the future.

After receiving the Red Dragon Queen's large order, the Holy Infant quickly set about refining the weapon, seeing it as a great opportunity to gain experience in Artifact Forging for free.

Therefore, I had to allocate more computing power here, which slightly delayed my own cultivation.

Even so, he still managed to push the Golden Serpent Breathing Technique to its limit.
