) The year 1223 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Green Grass.

Western Ai Ou.

The Lake of Sand Sea.

This place was once a giant lake, but overnight, for reasons unknown, it turned into endless yellow sand.

Under the yellow sand.

A magnificent underground palace stands here.

In the center of the square, there is an irregularly shaped boulder.

This is a newly discovered ancient site.

A group of wizards from the Deep Blue Organization are currently conducting a joint exploration mission in this area.

All six top organizations sent their respective teams.

Geniuses such as the Snow Lotus Witch, the Noble of the Sea, and the Hurricane Child flocked to the area.

At this moment, everyone was gathered around the irregular boulder.

An ancient bronze sword, dark gold in color, is stuck in the boulder.

The bronze sword looked ordinary and had no complicated magical runes; it seemed to be just an ornament.

At this moment, a group of people formed a circle around the boulder.

Ai Niya, the Phantom Witch, and others were also watching from a corner of the crowd.

Ha Di Si, the Hurricane Child, stood in the void, his body emanating countless streams of energy that coiled around the bronze sword.

He wanted to use the force of the airflow to pull out the bronze sword.

However, they had not yet gotten close to the bronze sword.

These air currents were absorbed by the giant rock in front of them, disappearing without a trace like mud sinking into the sea.

The Hurricane Child's face darkened.

Unconvinced, he conjured the most classic spell, "Wizard's Hand," and grasped the bronze sword.

As before, the spells almost completely failed as soon as they got close to the boulder.

After trying this for more than ten minutes,

The Hurricane Child left the scene with a grim expression, saying indifferently:

"If my guess is correct, the owner of this ruin used some kind of powerful forbidden magic to cast a spell on the boulder. Unless one's strength is not much weaker than his, it will be very difficult to pull the bronze sword out with magic. If any of you here do not believe me, you are welcome to try it..."

Clearly, he didn't want to be the only one to lose face.

After the Hurricane Child left, the Snow Lotus Witch stepped forward again.

This bronze sword is clearly some kind of treasure; I wouldn't be satisfied if I didn't try it.

She let out a delicate shout, and a Halo her.

A green, scarf-shaped, top-grade magical artifact flew toward the bronze sword.

The magical artifact became entangled in the bronze sword, and the Snow Lotus Witch was overjoyed, beginning to pull it back.

But they found that no matter how much force the scarf exerted, the bronze sword remained completely still.

However, the Art Power within her body was being constantly depleted.

She removed the magical artifact and said calmly, "Lord Ha Di Si is right. We can't even use the magical artifact... The treasure left behind by the Lord of the Ruins was clearly not meant for us wizards."

This situation is actually quite common.

Some wizards who travel between dimensions may unfortunately become trapped in a foreign land.

This method is also used to select inheritors, passing on the treasures to a destined wizard in the future, rather than to a different race.

A group of top geniuses took turns trying, but all ended in failure.

The last Noble of the Sea laughed loudly, "Let me do it, hahahaha!"

He is Body Refinement Wizard. Although he also relies on magic to refine his body, he must have an advantage over ordinary magic wizards.

His body was flashing with body-refining runes, and he gripped the hilt of a bronze sword, his muscles bulging with veins!

Everyone around watched carefully, and judging from the posture of the Noble of the Sea, it seemed that there was indeed a chance to pull out the bronze sword.

For a moment, the top geniuses panicked.

The Noble of the Sea roared, "Rise!"

He could sense that although his body-refining spell was also affected, it wasn't as severe as that of ordinary spells, and there might actually be hope of pulling it out.

Three minutes later.

The bronze sword seemed to tremble slightly, much to the delight of the Noble of the Sea.

"The Eight-Armed Demon God!"

He unleashed his full power, eight thick arms appearing behind him as the Eight-Armed Demon God Body Refinement Technique was fully activated! "Rise, you are destined to be mine!"

Twenty minutes later.

The high-intensity use of body-refining spells left the Noble of the Sea exhausted, both in terms of mental and Art Power, and their body-refining runes began to dim.

The bronze sword, apart from trembling slightly, showed no signs of being pulled out.

The exploration of the ruins has just begun, and he cannot afford to waste all his energy on it.

"Damn it, if I had a perfect Fifth Ring body refinement cultivation, maybe I would have a chance... Sixth Ring body refinement cultivation would definitely be no problem!"

He reluctantly released the bronze sword, and the people around him shook their heads. "What kind of origin is this treasure? Even Man Gang couldn't do it. In the Deep Blue Organization, apart from that level six old wizard, no one else... has any hope."

"It is said that, according to the local legends, whoever can pull out this sword has the potential to become a king, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"Sigh, stop thinking about it. Let's continue exploring the ruins. That's how rare treasures are; those who are destined to find them will get them, and those who are not will not be able to take them even if they see them."

That being said, after those top geniuses left, the other Fifth Ring wizards also went up to try. In the end, they all left disappointed.

The top geniuses huddled together to discuss the matter and ultimately decided to report it to the leader of a sixth-level school, letting him give it a try. After leaving the Ancient Tower, the treasure would be auctioned off, with the proceeds split equally among the participants. Although the leader was also a magic wizard, his level of cultivation was high enough that he should still have a chance. If even he couldn't succeed, then this treasure would likely only be obtainable by those damned Amethyst Clan.

This exploration was conducted in great secrecy, and no other forces besides the Deep Blue Organization knew about it.

They would rather let the treasure rot here forever than let the Amethyst Clan get it.

Eventually, fewer and fewer people remained in the square.

The Phantom Witch patted Ai Niya on the shoulder and said:

"Let's give it a try... We're already here, what if we get incredibly lucky and you're the legendary chosen one?"

Ai Niya smiled wryly:

"Don't joke around. I've never had any hope for my luck... Even Fifth Ring wizards haven't succeeded, so what chance do I, a Fourth Ring Wizard, have?"

Ignoring everything else, Sera grabbed Ai Niya's hand and rushed forward.

"I'll try first, then you try."

Sera, hoping for the best, gave it a try.

Watching the Fifth Ring spell being sucked away by the boulder, she immediately rolled up her witch robe and used her delicate hands to pull out the bronze sword.

Obviously, it's completely useless.

Ai Niya tried the same method, but the spell didn't work, so he went to the bronze sword and placed his hand on it.

The bronze sword trembled slightly, then a golden light flashed and quickly disappeared without a trace.

This left the wizards queuing behind them stunned.

"Damn it, I hope this kid doesn't get it."

"Who is he?"

"What is that golden light?"

Sera's expression was grave.

"Could it be that this treasure is destined for Ai Niya?"

To be honest, this was completely unexpected for Sera.

Ai Niya frowned slightly as she gazed at the giant rock in front of her.

The bronze sword remained there, unmoved.

"Are you kidding me? Even the Noble of the Sea pulled the Sword in the Stone, how could he possibly pull it out?" Sera transmitted her voice, "Ai Niya, what's going on? Are you alright?"

Ai Niya said:

"It's nothing... I want to end the mission temporarily, return to the organization's base, and let the team leader deduct my contribution points."

As a member of the organization, exploring ruins is not something you can do whenever you want.

Sera said:

"Let's go find the Snow Lotus Witch."

After the two left.

The other wizards breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought the bronze sword was going to be taken away, but it seems it was just a feint... But what was that golden light just now?"

"Could it be that there's some treasure inside the bronze sword that this kid got his hands on?"

In a short time.

Many eyes were fixed on Ai Niya's retreating figure.

Man Gang looked suspicious and went to the bronze sword again.

"Why can that kid make the bronze sword react, but I can't... I'm the number one body refiner among the younger generation of the Sea Abyss Alliance!"

After failing to draw his sword once again, Man Gang looked thoughtfully at Ai Niya.

"This guy definitely has some secret."

Several days later.

The exploration of the ruins has been completed.

The Deep Blue Organization reaped a great harvest in the underground palace.

The only regret is that no one has managed to pull out that bronze sword treasure.

With the wizards gone, the dungeon, which had been turned upside down, fell silent once more.

This day.

A wizard in blue robes arrived at this place.

He was old and frail, like a piece of rotten wood, and looked like he was not far from his end.

However, his aura was that of a true Primal Soul Wizard, even though he was only Sixth Ring ordinary one.

He gazed at the bronze sword, his eyes shining brightly.

"It is indeed a rare treasure. This kind of technique is definitely not something that Wizard Civilization would use to create a treasure. I heard that Luo Man obtained a level six rare treasure from the Ancient Tomb Clan. Now it seems that this rare treasure should belong to our Oceanic School."

His sleeves billowed, and his Art Power surged forth, while the surrounding water elemental power surged forth in a mighty torrent.

A large blue hand, about a mile in diameter, reached out to pull out the bronze sword.

Even the most ordinary [Wizard's Hand] spell possesses earth-shattering power in the hands of Primal Soul Wizard!

Therefore, if Primal Soul Wizard bullies someone, they like to use the Wizard's Hand to slap them, which is simple and brutal.

However, before the giant hand could even get close to the bronze sword, it was shattered by some mysterious force emanating from the boulder! The old wizard in blue robes was shocked.

"Could the owner of these ruins be a peak level six, or even a level seven or higher alien race...?"

Otherwise, with his cultivation level, he shouldn't be unable to break through the techniques of a dead person.

Logically speaking, Ai Ou, being a level seven alien race from the Fifth Layer, shouldn't be staying here. Only the Supreme Law God, this native, is suspected to be a level seven being.

The old wizard used all his other skills, including his innate magic and Origin Soul magic, but he still couldn't pull out the bronze sword.

"This underground palace might be an ancient alien relic that was accidentally sucked into this place by the Ancient Tower. This Sword in the Stone probably already existed before it entered the Ancient Tower..."

The old wizard shook his head.

"So be it, so be it. This item is not meant for our Oceanic School... Let's leave it to someone destined for it ten thousand years from now. Hopefully, by then, a wizard will be able to seize this treasure before the alien races."

In the underground palace, only a sigh remains.

The Month of Green Grass.

A deserted island in the West Sea.

A secluded place.

Levi kept his eyes and brows closed.

In my mind, the seven-colored crystals slowly rotated.

The Purple Light Sword, the Black Sun Compass, the Golden Light Realm, the Fire Gathering Pot, and other top-grade magical artifacts or treasures revolve around the seven-colored crystal.

Pegasus Star Soul and Horned Bull Star Soul, one running with its head up, the other charging straight ahead.

Inside the Law Ring Holy Tower, it had become a small world.

Within the seven-colored crystals.

A phantom of a tortoise lingered within it. Around it were more than ten other phantoms of Truth Wonder.

If other wizards saw this, they would probably be green with Jealousy.

While others might consider refining even one rare item remarkable, this person has already refined over a dozen. Moreover, many of these items appear to be of very high quality.

In just one or two months, Levi had finished refining this wondrous item.

Overall, it's decent but not exceptional.

Its functions are fourfold: First, it increases mental strength by 11 points, reducing the need for nearly two years of arduous cultivation.

Secondly, it increases the power of Earth Faction spells.

Thirdly, it could create a Third Ring earth-elemental talent, but Levi has already maxed it out. Therefore, the talent spell "Earth Dragon Barrier" was further optimized.

Fourth, it can enhance Levi's stealth and concealment abilities. Combined with his Hermit Rune, Levi's ability to ambush and survive is greatly improved.

To his disappointment, this strange item did not increase his mental strength limit, nor did it bring the much-anticipated [Companion Spirit].

"Indeed, human desires are insatiable... I've already defied the heavens by being able to give birth to three companion spirits, which are such rare creatures, yet I still feel it's not enough."

He rose and entered the Holy Grail.

Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

The Black Lotus Beast's injuries have healed.

With the help of Senior Mana personally healing its wounds, coupled with Levi's meticulous care, its strong physique, and the Ageless Spring Water, etc.

It's just a minor cut and bruise, nothing serious.

Inside the tree hollow.

Aya's dedication to spiritual practice was no less than Levi's; she was either meditating or practicing magic.

Her talent for shadows was referred to by Levi as the "Dark Crown".

In order to find out what Aya's special talent was, Levi consulted a lot of information, but to no avail.

He even asked the Hundred Flower Knight, but she had never heard of it either.

Unlike conventional elemental affinity talents, the Wizard World does not have a clear scientific standard for defining special talents.

However, overall...

Wizards roughly categorized the Truth Wonder into different grades.

Lower-tier special talents have effects similar to those granted by Earth or Sky-level artifacts. For example, the [Iron Will] talent that Levi gained by breaking his own sword.

Similarly, there are also elemental affinity talents born from special extraordinary bloodlines. Generally speaking, this talent isn't very strong, but it's much better than nothing.

The talent gained from Morning Star artifact is of medium level. Without Morning Star artifact, acquiring this talent depends on the circumstances of your birth.

For example, Ai Niya's [Blood of Bronze] should be above average. Other top geniuses, such as Simon's [Prince of Fire] and the Snow Lotus Witch's [Flower of Water], should also be in this tier.

The reason these top geniuses cultivate so quickly is because of the combination of [Child of Element] and [Special Talent]. With these two buffs stacked, even a pig could rise to prominence.

Therefore, some top geniuses, despite having a poor mindset, cultivate very quickly. There's no way around it; they're practically fed by God.

Therefore, Morning Star artifact that can give birth to special talents can truly allow a person to defy fate.

As for rare and wondrous things like the Bright Moon Blazing Sun, the talent they possess is absolutely top-notch, even exceptional.

However, even Primal Soul Wizard rarely sees such a rare object.

Legendary Realm artifacts go without saying; since the Ancient Tower appeared, no one has ever obtained such an artifact from here. Throughout the history of the Wizard World, those who obtained such artifacts, as long as they did not die young, would ultimately achieve great things.

Levi was suspicious.

Aya's special talent is very likely a top-tier talent.

"We've really struck gold! She's a rough gem. With a little polishing, she can take off. It's not impossible for her to achieve the Origin Soul in the future! After all, her dual-elemental affinity is actually quite good."

Levi's attitude towards Aya has changed from initially letting her grow up freely to now testing her progress in her spiritual practice from time to time.

Not a teacher, but better than a teacher.

The fun of nurturing characters, like gacha pulls, can become addictive without you even realizing it. Discovering SSR cards like Andrew and Aya gives Levi a real sense of accomplishment.

After seeing Aya, Levi toured the Wonderland.

In various Rich Element Land, rare plants are thriving.

Inside the Flame Mountain.

The Iron Tree one zhang (approximately 3.3 meters) every hundred years, a very regular occurrence. When Levi discovered it, it had been a hundred years. Now, more than fifty years later, it has grown one zhang. This is all thanks to the five-level fertilizer.

Of course, the growth cycle of Iron Tree is too long, so this change is nothing.

The most significant changes are in the [Yunmeng Marsh]. Thousands of Saintess Fruit were scattered across this vast area. Now, the earliest batch of seedlings have grown to three feet tall.

This rare shrub typically bears fruit once every hundred years. With the aid of five-level fertilizer to accelerate ripening, along with other methods, it can be done in about forty years.

Levi estimates that in about twenty years, the first batch of Saintess Fruit will be ready to be harvested. At that time, some will be kept for seedlings, and the rest will be used to refine Purification Potion.

As for the "Fluorescent Illusion Tree" in the Netherworld Cave, the medicinal part of this rare plant is its bark.

Its bark is similar to that of chives; as long as the ecological environment is suitable and nutrients are sufficient, once a layer is peeled off, it will regrow in about a year. Therefore, Levi can refine his Limit Soul without worrying about running out of medicine.

seaside.

The Ancient Shell Palace floats here.

With the combined efforts of thousands of the Shell Fairy Clan, the restoration project is progressing very smoothly.

The Shell Fairy Matriarch wiped the sweat from her forehead and flew to Levi, panting.

"Master, there is a matter I need to report to you..."

Levi asked, "What is it?"

The Shell Fairy Matriarch said, "It's like this, the number of extraordinary shellfish in this sea area spanning tens of thousands of miles where we live is not enough, and the round trip to collect shellfish is a bit of a waste of time..."

Levi said, "I understand. We can continue migrating deeper into the area."

Leaving the fairyland, Levi destroyed the Sanctuary and flew towards the depths of the sea, living like a nomadic people, following the shells of the sea.

West Coast Ai Ou.

The headquarters of the Deep Blue Organization.

Ai Niya's residence.

After returning from the Yellow Sand Underground Palace, Ai Niya took a leave of absence to begin her cultivation, temporarily suspending her missions. She no longer cared about the contribution points she earned from completing missions.

He locked himself in his house, examined the magic array, and then looked inward into his mind.

In my mind, there is a dark gold bronze sword, exuding a sharp aura, covered with truth runes. It is an unknown Truth Wonder, and most likely a rare sky-level one!

That day, after Ai Niya touched the bronze sword, something seemed to be drawn to him and entered his mind.

When he looked closely, he realized it was a Truth Wonder.

Who would have thought that a secret was hidden within the bronze sword?

So many geniuses and Fifth Ring wizards, even sixth-level wizards from the organization, went there, but none of them obtained the Truth Wonder like him.

Ai Niya was excited.

"Could it be that I am also a wizard blessed by luck? No, it must be because of my special talent."

The rare item he obtained was of the metal family, as was his special talent, [Blood of Bronze].

This unknown and wondrous object may choose its own master.

He didn't believe it was pure luck. In this world, there might be some people who are very lucky and can obtain rare items every now and then... but it definitely wasn't him! After sixty years of tempering in the Ancient Tower, Ai Niya's mental power had long since reached the Fourth Ring perfection.

He did not limit his mental strength. The reason he had not been able to advance to the Fifth Ring for so long was that he was researching his original sixth talent.

As Triss's son, he also possessed a certain pride. Even if he couldn't achieve nine talents in the future, he would at least have eight. Therefore, the three talents in the Fourth Ring must be perfected.

"Let's begin refining it; hopefully, it will be of some help to me."

He didn't have high expectations; rare items don't necessarily grant innate magical abilities.

Outside the House of Witches compound.

Inside a tavern in Deep Blue City.

The Noble of the Sea sat alone, drinking, gazing towards the direction of the House of Witches, murmuring to himself:

"This kid has been in seclusion ever since he came out of the Yellow Sand Underground Palace... He must have gained something from the rare treasure. What could it be?"

His heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat.

He investigated and found that the person's name was Ai Niya, and he was quite talented, a genius.

However, he is far inferior to top geniuses like him and the Hurricane Child.

Therefore, at roughly the same age, he has been on the Fifth Ring for decades, while Ai Niya is still on the Fourth Ring Road.

From Man Gang's perspective, Ai Niya is nothing special; the only special thing about her is her mother.

One of the thirteen Origin Soul of the House of Witches, known as "Witch of Potions Triss".

This woman must be over eight hundred years old. Three hundred years ago, she was Primal Soul Wizard. With her talent and resources, she must be at least a senior Sixth Ring cultivator by now.

Because of her rare talent as a pharmacist, she was one of the Vice President of the Endless Sea Potion Makers' Association, and the only one who wasn't a seventh-ring Vice President. Triss, on the other hand, only had one son, Ai Niya ...

After finishing his drink, Man Gang paid the bill and left, disappearing into the street.

Time flies like an arrow, and years pass like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye.

Two years have passed.

The year 1225 of the Holy Radiance Calendar, the Month of Origin.

Dark Ancient Tower Calendar 60.

The 125th Round Table Conference concluded successfully.

Levi learned this through the meeting.

According to the Eye of Sauron, there are currently no signs that the Dark Ancient Tower will close.

Based on historical data, the average duration of each opening of the Dark Ancient Tower is sixty years, though it generally fluctuates.

The parliament pointed out after analysis.

This time, the Ancient Tower's lifespan might be a little longer than sixty years, but not by much. It could be extended by ten years at most, or by three to five years at least.

Overall, the Ancient Tower is nearing its end, and everyone should be prepared to leave at any time.

This is good for Levi, because he still has some things to finish.

He needs to hunt down as many Golden Absolute Clan and Amethyst Clan as possible before the Ancient Tower closes, and collect Golden Leaf and refining materials.

He also wanted to try and get his hands on the Heaven Crystal Dragon Ant. Aside from that, there were no other important matters.

The remaining things he desires are often related to the Sixth Ring, and he would not confront the Sixth Ring directly without a suitable opportunity.

These sixty years.

He did not discuss his own spiritual gains.

He made a fortune from knowledge, materials, resources, rare plants, extraordinary creatures, hybrid Dragonkind, witchcraft artifacts, and strange objects, far exceeding his expectations.

Furthermore, he obtained the Holy Grail and Mana, solving the most troublesome problem of his personal living space.

He also lit up titles including, but not limited to, the following: Undying Dragon Demon, Gandalf, Three-Headed Dragon Spawn, Fire Child Mage, Death Sword...

In the span of sixty years, he has undergone a tremendous transformation.

Now all we need to do is wait for the Ancient Tower to be completed and for our victory to be achieved.

The meeting is adjourned.

Levi continued practicing his combat skills.

His three Barbarian King -level combat skills have all improved in the past two years.

The power of "Thunder Crescent Moon" has already begun to show, and it only needs to be tested in actual combat.

He also made some progress on the Fourth Layer the "Divine Eagle Canon" and the "Lion King's Compendium".

The Way of the Wizard.

Levi's mental strength has reached 882 points, which is not far from the so-called "Fifth Ring Perfection".

However, he was not in a hurry to study the eighth talent.

The difficulty of original talent spells increases dramatically as you progress, and they are extremely time-consuming and mentally taxing.

The Ancient Tower is almost finished. He plans to study it slowly after he leaves; there's no rush.

This also saved Levi a lot of time to refine the Limit Soul.

Currently, the Limit Soul has 12 strands. To be able to condense one strand every year or so would be a victory.

Regarding Knight.

Not long ago, the Nightmare Dragon Breathing Technique quietly advanced to the sixteenth level, which is the Blood Source Fourth Transformation.

This further enhanced Levi's perception abilities.

After acquiring the Cold Flame Bird Secret Medicine, the Death Ember Dragon's training speed has noticeably accelerated. It's almost catching up to the Scarlet Dragon's pace and may even overtake it.

Overall, neither of these two Breathing Technique is too far from the Seventeenth-Order.

In Rune Words.

The relatively difficult-to-cultivate [Lovers Rune] has already reached Seventh Rank. Levi's luck boost has reached 60%!

"It's time to leave, to bring our trip to the Ancient Tower to a perfect close."

He entered a fairyland.

Mana pouted and asked:

"Levi, when are we leaving the Ancient Tower? I really want to go outside..."

Levi laughed:

"Senior, there's no need to rush. You'll be able to leave in no more than ten years. How is your strength recovering now?"

Mana smiled gently:

"Thanks to you and A Long, my injuries have healed."

After she finished speaking, she waved the lush green leaves of the tree, swaying gracefully.

Congratulations, senior!

Levi was secretly delighted.

With Mana having regained her strength, she felt even more confident on this long journey.

seaside.

The Ancient Shell Palace has been completely renovated and floats on the sea like an isolated island.

Apart from the staff who take turns caring for the herb garden, the entire Shell Fairy Clan resides in the Ancient Shell Palace.

The restoration of the Ancient Shell Palace is now largely complete.

Moreover, the Shell Fairy Clan has begun artificially breeding various extraordinary shellfish in the waters of the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

Once they grow up, all the parts for the future Ancient Shell Palace can be obtained from the Fairy Realm.

It can be said that Levi's sustainable development philosophy has been thoroughly implemented.

Seeing the orderly and thriving Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

Levi waved his sleeves, left the fairyland, and roared to the sky.

"Ai Ou, I'm back again!"

On this long journey, we must be especially careful of the Thunderbolt King.

As far as he knew, the Thunderbolt King was serious and was spending a great deal of effort searching for "Dragon Demon" and "Victor".

"Alas, although I have been retired for many years, I am still a legend in the martial arts world. This generation of young people is no good."

West Coast.

Deep Blue Organization.

Before embarking on his journey, Levi changed his appearance and came to this place to visit his old friend Ai Niya.

He found an informant.

The informant said that Ai Niya has not carried out any missions in the past two years and has been in seclusion at home.

"It seems Ai Niya is also about to advance to the Fifth Ring. Congratulations..."

For Levi.

The Fifth Ring was built more than 30 years ago.

The informant also told Levi that the annual Deep Blue Trade Fair was in seven days.

Many independent practitioners barter here, which is worth seeing.

Levi then settled down there temporarily.

Seven days later.

Deep Blue Trade Fair.

Hundreds of Fourth Ring- and Fifth Ring wizards gathered here.

Levi participated as Nameless cultivator from the Fifth Ring.

He bought the Golden Leaf on a whim, and it actually came true.

I spent about one million Great Stone and collected three Golden Leaf, which was a pleasant surprise.

He quickly handed it to Senior Mana, allowing her to absorb the power of the divine tree within.

Of course, because of this action, he was also targeted by a Fifth Ring wizard with ulterior motives.

In the end, he had no choice but to resort to entrapment and kill in order to protect himself... and incidentally seize some spoils of war.

This day.

As Levi was leaving, his informant said that Ai Niya had emerged from seclusion.

"Fine, I'll go sneak a peek at the young man."

The House of Witches.

Ai Niya was radiant with energy, her eyes Divine Light.

His aura is now completely different from what it used to be.

He had already reached the Fifth Ring six months ago, but he was consolidating his realm.

After refining that unknown object, his maximum mental strength increased by 20 points, and his total mental strength increased by 18 points.

Most importantly, this wondrous item completed her sixth innate spell, which Ai Niya named:

"The Golden Copper King's Holy Sword!"

After sixty years of Ancient Tower work and perseverance, he finally achieved his goal and reaped the rewards of his efforts.

He was in high spirits and left his residence, intending to share the good news with Sera. However, he learned that Sera had gone on a mission.

"I wonder if Levi is still in the Fifth Ring... It's been sixty years, I've missed you dearly."

Ai Niya immediately accepted a relatively easy task, intending to test her current strength.

He was riding high and left Deep Blue City.

Soon after, a burly figure quietly disappeared in the direction Ai Niya had gone.

wilderness.

Before even reaching the mission location, Ai Niya encountered an uninvited guest.

Sea Noble Man Gang.

Man Gang stood proudly in the void, arms crossed, a nonchalant smile on his face:

"Ai Niya, right?"

Ai Niya said calmly:

What do you want?

Man Gang clapped and said, "Congratulations on your Fifth Ring."

Ai Niya frowned and asked:

"You followed me here, surely not just for a congratulatory message?"

Man Gang said, "You're a smart man, that makes things easier. Your advancement to the Fifth Ring must be related to that bronze sword, right? Tell me the secret of the bronze sword, and I'll leave immediately."

Ai Niya said:

"You should have seen it, I didn't pull out the bronze sword either... As for why that thing was glowing, I also want to know why? My advancement to the Fifth Ring was a treasure given to me by my Origin Soul mother, and it has nothing to do with the bronze sword."

Man Gang sneered:

"It seems you don't want to tell the truth. Fine, I'll find the answer myself."

He had barely finished speaking.

Suddenly, a golden holy sword descended majestically, cleaving the heavens and earth!

The Golden Copper King's Holy Sword!

Seeing that things were not going well, Ai Niya took the initiative and launched an attack.

Now that he is also Fifth Ring, he naturally has no fear of Man Gang's threat.

Sensing the terrifying power of the holy sword, Man Gang became serious.

"As expected of the Child of the Origin Soul, he has some skill."

He didn't use any magic; body-refining runes flickered on his arm. A simple, unadorned punch clashed with the holy sword.

Boom! The clang of metal rang out.

The holy sword was knocked away, and the shockwave swept across an area of about a mile. Man Gang's fist was also knocked back, and blood flowed freely.

Ai Niya's eyes narrowed slightly.

"This person is terrifying; he physically confronted my most powerful sixth talent."

Without hesitation, he threw out a hair clip, which grew longer in the wind.

Man Gang swung his fists, but they were caught in a hairpin that exuded a woman's fragrance, rendering him unable to move.

A void-traveling artifact in Ai Niya's mind shone brightly.

Ripples spread, and he stepped into the void, disappearing from sight.

As the son of Origin Soul, he possesses quite a few good things.

Man Gang eight arms, blasting the hairpin away.

He gazed into the distance and smiled confidently, "You can't escape."

He had already set up ambushes on his way back to the Deep Blue Organization.

He didn't even bother with disguise in this operation; it was pointless with his signature Eight-Armed Demon God Body Refinement Technique. Besides, it wasn't just Ai Niya who had Origin Soul backer.

He watched the hair clip fly away on its own and hurriedly chased after it.

"Hehehe, this thing must be Triss's personal possession. I will treasure it carefully. I heard that this old woman is still charming and has captivated many Origin Soul witches."

The next moment.

Sparks flew in the void.

The hair clip was pulled away by a suction force and disappeared instantly.

Who is it?

Man Gang's expression changed drastically.

Even with his Fifth Ring environment, he couldn't sense anyone nearby, so close to him. Even someone at the peak of the Fifth Ring environment couldn't have done that!

Adding to that the ability to open doors in the void, this person is most likely Origin Soul expert! This thought struck me.

His body-refining runes flickered wildly, and the phantom of Eight-Armed Demon God appeared. His face tense, he looked around and shouted:

"Which senior was harassing me? If it's because of what happened with Ai Niya just now, then it's just a misunderstanding... I was just eager to spar with Ai Niya."

As soon as he finished speaking, a spatial rift appeared and swallowed him up.

Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

The Eight Divisions Heavenly Dragon Prison.

Man Gang landed here, looking puzzled.

Where is this?

A figure descended from the sky, clad in black armor and wielding a long sword, even more imposing than Man Gang.

He threw the corpses of several Fifth Ring wizards on the ground and said calmly:

"This is Hell."

Since the discovery of the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm, Levi has tried to fight in the Wonderland whenever he faces an opponent he believes he can win. This way, he doesn't have to worry about being broadcast live.

While he was tracking Ai Niya, he discovered that Man Gang was also tracking him with two Fifth Ring wizards.

He followed them all the way, and took care of the two Fifth Ring wizards along the way.

To hone Ai Niya's skills, Levi did not act immediately, but instead observed her secretly.

As expected, with Ai Niya's methods and trump cards, even those below the Fifth Ring could protect themselves against top geniuses. This made him very gratified.

This kid has left behind the hair clip his mother left him again...

Levi stroked Triss's hair clip and put it away for the time being.

He saw the Black Armor Swordsman casually deal with his subordinates.

Man Gang felt a strong sense of crisis and angrily said:

"Who are you? Let me leave this godforsaken place right now, or I'll be projected out of the Ancient Tower and you'll have no place in the Wizard World. You must have heard of the Sea Abyss Alliance, right?"

Levi's face remained calm as he grinned and said, "Man Gang, is it? You probably haven't figured out the situation yet. This place is no longer the Ancient Tower. Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you, and if you die here, no one will know. Hehehe."

Upon hearing this, Man Gang's expression changed drastically.

"Go to hell!"

Eight-Armed Demon God appeared, and his impenetrable fist shadows arrived with a thunderous roar!

Sky Dragon Sword Canon: Golden Dragon Blazing Sky!

Levi brandished his longsword, deflecting all the fist shadows.

Not only that.

Some of the punches were even deflected back, forcing Man Gang to constantly dodge and suffer greatly.

Within Man Gang's body, his blood was boiling.

The 108,000 black body-refining runes around his body instantly transformed into blood-red runes.

"Demon God's Devour!"

A crimson cloud shrouded the sky, exuding a terrifying aura.

A gaping maw, resembling the mouthparts of a lamprey, emerged from within and lunged at Levi.

Levi remained calm and snapped his fingers.

Next.

What shocked Man Gang even more was what happened next.

A towering, three-headed, six-armed Black Scale dragon-man phantom stood on the earth.

Upon seeing this, Man Gang instantly lost his will to fight. He trembled and said, "You... you are the Three-Headed Dragon Spawn! No, you are not Dragon Spawn, who are you?"

Now it seems that Dragon Spawn is most likely in disguise, which caused a drastic change in Man Gang's mind.

The Three-Headed Dragon God's massive six arms rose to support the sky, holding back the Abyss Maw formed from blood-red clouds.

A surge of immense power rippled through his six arms.

The blood energy was vast, the black flames filled the sky, and the dragon claws swung, shattering the blood clouds in the sky!

"Demon God Finger!"

The eight arms of the Man Gang writhed and intertwined, transforming into a single finger with rough texture and covered in Black Scale that descended from the sky and pointed towards the Dragon God!

Levi laughed heartily.

"Good timing!"

He wanted to test the power of the strongest move in the "War King's Compendium" in his current Dragon God form.

The Three-Headed Dragon God, with six arms, grasped the world-destroying greatsword and stepped forward.

One step of rage, two steps of courage, three steps of dominance, four steps of star-studded strides, and the fifth step... to Moon Slash! "War King's Compendium - Thunder Crescent Moon, Slash!"

This is the culmination of Levi Weixing's many years of experience in "The War King's Compendium," drawing upon the Moon Aura to summon the Thunder of heaven and earth! Boom! The sword light was like lightning, and wherever it passed, muffled thunderclaps resounded.

Compared to larger planes, the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm is less stable in terms of spatial stability.

As a result of this sword strike, cracks actually appeared in the space!

Although the space itself did not shatter, it still revealed the terrifying power of this attack. Boom! The Thunder Crescent Moon Slash annihilated the Demon God's finger, and its residual force sent Man Gang flying.

The Protective Force Field shattered, the magical artifact flew away, and the bones inside the body broke one by one.

Of the 108,000 body-refining runes on Man Gang's body, more than half were destroyed.

He flew away like a kite with a broken string, landing on the ground, barely alive.

Man Gang, barely breathing, said in fear:

"You... you are the real demon."

This so-called top genius was so weak and helpless in front of Levi.

The Three-Headed Dragon God, still unsatisfied with the battle, dissipated. Levi reached out and placed his hand on Man Gang's chest, Scarlet Dragon Power surged into his body.

Man Gang said, "Master."

Just a moment ago he was calling Levi a demon, and now he's calling him master. This is the Scarlet Contract.

Levi asked:

Why did you hurt Ai Niya?

Man Gang recounted the whole truth to Li Wei. After listening, Levi pondered and said:

"Yellow Sand Underground Palace, Sword in the Stone... Spell Banned? Interesting, there are actually such relics."

He gave Man Gang some healing medicine, and then said:

"Take me to see the ruins."

Man Gang still somewhat useful to him, so he doesn't plan to kill him for the time being.

On the way, Levi finished taking stock of the spoils he had obtained from Man Gang, which were incredibly abundant.

Great Stone has nearly one million.

One top-grade magical artifact, the Demon Scale Armor. The Demon Scale Armor is a rare magical artifact tailor-made for Body Refinement Wizard. It can amplify strength and defense, and possesses many powerful spells.

Man Gang did not possess any teleportation artifact. Upon inquiry, Levi learned that Man Gang had originally possessed one, but it had been completely destroyed in a battle.

This person did not possess any Truth Wonder; aside from the few artifacts he refined, he handed over all the other items he obtained during missions to the organization.

Other resources, materials, and common knowledge are abundant, needless to say, befitting his status as a top genius.

What pleased Levi the most was a body-refining technique.

The Eight-Armed Demon God Body Refinement Technique

This is one of the four ancient body-refining methods, and it is renowned in the world of Body Refinement Wizard.

Theoretically, this method can be practiced up to the eighth level of the environmental realm.

Once mastered, one will possess the legendary "Eight-Armed Demon God True Body," possessing immense strength capable of moving mountains and filling seas! Of course.

In this day and age, even within the Sea Abyss Alliance, no one has yet fully mastered it to the eighth ring, or even the seventh ring... There is only one high-ranking Origin Soul who has reached the peak of the Sixth Ring.

On the one hand, this body-refining method is quite difficult to practice.

On the other hand, most people practice magic, and fewer and fewer people persist in the path of physical cultivation.

With the ancient Ancient Tower about to close, Levi temporarily puts away this body-refining method, planning to cultivate it again after returning to the Wizard World.

"Sigh, when will my body-refining clone mature like the Holy Infant and cultivate on its own?"

Several days later.

A land where yellow sand fills the sky.

Levi, accompanied by Man Gang, descended from the sky.

Man Gang said:

"Master, this bronze sword is a rare treasure that even Sixth Ring wizard cannot touch. You should be prepared..."

Levi said, "I know."

Beneath the underground palace.

Levi swept his mental energy across the area and took another stroll.

"Damn, it's so clean. These wizards are like locusts, they leave nothing behind... No wonder it only opens once every ten thousand years, otherwise no matter how much stuff there is, it won't be enough for them to wreak havoc."

Having failed to find a bargain, Levi arrived in front of the irregular boulder.

The bronze sword is stuck in the boulder, having stood for countless years.

Levi first tried using magic, but it was like throwing a mud ox into the sea—completely unresponsive.

"What amazing methods! The person who built this ruin must have unfathomable strength."

He went to the bronze sword and grasped it with both hands.

Man Gang didn't dare to breathe, his heart pounding with tension.

"Master, is it possible...? Relying on his monstrous strength, comparable to that of Dragon Spawn, perhaps it really is possible."

That day, his master killed Simon, leaving an indelible impression on him.

Levi held the stone sword, his veins bulging.

Scales emerged one by one, blood energy surged, and the Crimson Emperor Dragon Power ignited! "Rise!"

With a sudden burst of immense power, the bronze sword within the stone began to tremble violently.

Man Gang's breathing faltered, and an expression of disbelief crossed his face.

"As expected, Master is promising... Just what kind of being is he? Why does a wizard possess such immense strength? Is it because of his dragon bloodline?"

He was filled with doubt.

Levi's face was contorted with rage.

The bronze sword trembled, but it did not come out for a long time.

"Isn't that enough?"

He took a deep breath.

The Strength Rune within his body flickered wildly, and Bull Star Soul ran faster and faster! Six Dharma Images appeared behind him simultaneously! Within the ruins, Nightmare Descent, and darkness enveloped everything! With the blessing of the Giant Dragon Warrior and Wrathful Dragon Venerable Three-Headed Dragon God emerged, threatening to shatter the underground palace! Levi, clad in the Crimson Emperor Dragon Armor, joined the Three-Headed Dragon God, all eight arms gripping the Bronze Sword within the Stone! He roared, his aura soaring to the heavens, the sound waves sweeping across the land. A faint golden lion phantom could be seen descending, radiating the aura of the King of Beasts! At this moment, Levi was like Undying sun, Man Gang could not look directly at him!

His voice boomed like thunder as he confidently addressed the bronze sword. "If you, this extraordinary treasure, possess a spirit, you should know that if you do not come with me today... then for ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years, you will never see the light of day again! You will be forever buried within this Ancient Tower, buried in the yellow sand, until you decay!"

The strongest Levi, now in full power, is unleashing his full strength once again!

"Rise!"

As Levi exerted his strength, various strange phenomena collided, the momentum surged, and the Yellow Sand Underground Palace roared loudly.

It's unclear whether his strength was so great that he met the standard for pulling out the treasure, or whether the treasure truly understood his words.

In short, the bronze sword emerged from the boulder without any hindrance, just like a well-cooked pork rib!

With a whoosh! Ten thousand golden rays shot straight into the sky, piercing into the infinite heights, a breathtaking phenomenon that shook the western part of Ai Ou! Rumble.

The Yellow Sand Underground Palace collapsed completely.

Levi stood amidst the ruins, panting heavily. He gripped the bronze sword and murmured to himself, "This is... the Sword of Victory."
