The "Nether Festival," which occurs once every hundred years in Hell, has arrived.

This day.

Whether it's the first level or the Ninth Layer... a long, endless black river stretching across the entire universe appears in the sky above Hell.

The long river exuded a terrifying aura, and countless demons and spirits cried out.

"The Mother River has descended upon the world!"

This long, illusory river is none other than the legendary Nether Mother River, which exists deep within the Underworld and governs the cycle of all things.

Inside a devil's city, Levi stood in a tavern, gazing at the high sky.

He was deeply shocked.

This is a river that stretches as far as the eye can see, flowing endlessly like the river of time.

He could also see that around the Nether Mother River, there were countless branch rivers like capillaries, connecting to the void.

"What is recorded in the book is indeed true. The Mother River resides in the Underworld, yet it can connect to multiple planes. Those reincarnated True Spirit are randomly sent to multiple planes through these tributaries to begin their new life. It's too shocking; this has already exceeded the scope of the Legendary Realm."

Some say that the Mother River is an extremely powerful being, similar to the Blood River Will.

Some say that the Mother River is the embodiment of rules that do not have the consciousness of living beings.

The truth about the Mother River remained unknown to Levi.

Based on some of the hidden knowledge he obtained, the Blood River Will seems to have intricate connections with the Mother River.

Therefore, the True Spirit of the Blood Clan can enter the Blood River instead of the Underworld to wash away memories and be reborn.

However, the two are not even in the same league.

at the same time.

On the Nether Mother River, one can vaguely see rows of mast sailboats, which are slowly descending as they sail along the river.

One of them landed in the wilderness not far from the city where Levi was located.

"The Nether Market is open! The Netherworld Merchants have arrived!"

Someone shouted something, and the demons, who had been waiting impatiently, swarmed out of the city.

A devil secretly rejoiced.

"Hahaha, I've worked diligently and saved every penny for a hundred years, and I've accumulated a full ten thousand Nether Coin. This time, I'm sure I'll return with a full load!"

Levi did not rush to step onto the mast-mounted sailboat, after all, he was neither a devil nor an undead creature.

If the Netherworld Merchant is hostile to him, or if the rules don't allow it, it would be pointless for him to go.

The danger perception didn't register anything... However, since the Netherworld Merchant is a being from the Underworld, Levi estimated that the danger perception wouldn't be of much use against such a powerful being.

With this thought in mind, he summoned Isha from the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm in a deserted place and asked her to take a stack of Nether Coin to find the underworld merchant.

Not long after.

Isha then brought a small box to Levi.

Levi asked:

What is this?

Isha said, "This is the [Lost Box]. It is said that a memory of a living being is randomly sealed inside, ranging from level one to level nine. If you are lucky, these memories may come with inherited knowledge... By the way, this item is worth 1,000 Nether Coin."

Levi thought to himself.

Isn't this just a memory blind box? "From what we can see now, it must be that a powerful being from the Mother River or the Underworld extracted fragments of memories from some living beings and made this item."

This shows that Leon is no ordinary person; this little guy is most likely from the Underworld as well. In Mortal World legends, the Holy Armor Scorpion is an insect of the Underworld, and it seems there's some truth to that.

Clearly, the vast majority of these memory blind boxes are junk.

Those who can obtain the memories of beings at level six or above are extremely rare.

Nothing more.

Looking across multiple dimensions, the proportion of Level 6 powerhouses is extremely small.

As for obtaining level nine memories, the probability is practically zero.

A box of 1000 Nether Coin is not cheap.

"This is probably just a method used by the Underworld to recycle Nether Coin..."

Nether Coin can only be made in the Underworld. Levi once tried to study it, but failed.

In the extraordinary world, currency, like Great Stone and Soul Stone, is often a general equivalent related to cultivation.

However, Nether Coin is really just a few pieces of paper money similar to those from the previous life; no one knows exactly what it is made of.

A Great Wizard of the Death School once studied this and speculated that Nether Coin was made from the lifespan of living beings.

The hundreds of millions of Nether Coin on Levi's body might have been made from the lifespans of countless living beings.

Since outsiders could also participate, Levi felt much more at ease.

However, he still found a place to park the carriage, preparing to self-destruct and return to the city at any time.

He has no desire to live a second life.

Not seeking the afterlife, but only this day! An eerie mast sailboat is moored in the wilderness, and one by one, demons enter it and disappear.

Levi took precautions.

Stepping inside the ship, a lively and bustling atmosphere immediately envelops you.

These mast sailboats may look small, but they have a lot to offer.

The enormous deck, like a plaza, stretched as far as the eye could see.

Almost all the demons in the city came, yet it didn't feel crowded.

In the center of the plaza, a towering, black-armored giant, a thousand meters tall and exuding a terrifying aura, stood silently, gripping the scythe of death.

Levi gasped.

"I can't fathom its depth at all; it's probably not even an eighth-level being... Is this just some random Netherworld Merchant, such a powerful being?"

He estimated that it was probably because this was the Sixth Layer that the Underworld sent out an eighth-level expert who could suppress the entire area in order to maintain order.

If it were on one of the earlier levels, the Netherworld Merchant's strength would likely be downgraded accordingly.

There are notice boards in the square.

1. Fighting, stealing, and petty theft are strictly prohibited here... Violators will be executed without mercy, and their souls will not be reincarnated! 2. Transactions are conducted using Nether Coin money. If you do not have enough Nether Coin, you can use your lifespan to pay on credit.

Upon seeing this, Levi felt a chill run down his spine.

The Astral Realm is faith, the Abyss is slaughter, Nightmare are fear, and the Underworld... is lifespan! It seems highly likely that Nether Coin is forged from lifespan.

Levi arrived at the stall in front of the black-armored giant and began searching.

[Seven Day Soul Return Grass, Price: 5 million Nether Coin]

Levi's face lit up with joy.

"Seven-ring herbs, when exchanged for Great Stone, would cost around ten million, but here they only require 5 million Nether Coin... Indeed, it's good to have no middlemen taking a cut."

This item has many uses, and the more the better, so Levi quickly bought it.

At the stall.

There are so many good things here.

The best-selling item was surprisingly the "Lost Box".

A group of Hell demons, like gamblers, were opening boxes there. Some left satisfied, seemingly having obtained some valuable memory inheritance.

Some were unwilling and resentful, and could only leave with regret.

"I have the Lovers Rune, so my luck should be pretty good. If I buy other things and there's still some left, I'll try my luck. If I can get a level six or higher inheritance, whether it's a combat skill or a spell, it'll be a win."

Levi's heart also began to stir.

Suddenly.

Levi's eyes narrowed.

In the center of the stall was a fruit he knew all too well.

[Spirit Hosting Fruit, Price: 200 million Nether Coin]

"As expected of the Nether Market, the resources here are abundant."

Levi suspected that every time Nether Market, there were probably many wizards like himself who would mingle there, buy things, and then go to the Wizard World to do reselling business.

Upon closer examination, this could indeed be a way to make money.

As long as you are confident in your abilities, you can hunt down demons in Hell and steal Nether Coin, then convert Nether Coin into Great Stone through the Nether Market.

However, there are still significant risks involved in doing so.

Once or twice is fine, but if this continues, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the rulers of Hell.

Sending powerful beings to launch a devastating attack would be counterproductive.

Given the exorbitant price of the Spirit Hosting Fruit, the demons here simply cannot afford it.

Even though they knew it was a valuable item, they could only watch helplessly as Levi Wei bought it.

"Damn it, how does this pig demon have so much money?"

"Yes, he's already bought a lot of things. I've roughly calculated it to be at least two or three hundred million..."

"Could this person be the Archdemon?"

A multitude of covetous gazes descended, their Greed desires undisguised.

The devil is synonymous with greed.

Levi didn't care at all; if these Thug dared to cause him trouble, he would just kill them.

It just so happens that his Shadow Dragon Multitude talent also needs an upgrade to his Shadow Legion, aiming for all members to reach level four or five.

They also bought some Soul Stone from the Underworld from the stall, spending 100 million Nether Coin, and obtained a total of twenty-three stones.

Overall, it's still a bit cheaper than The Wizard World.

In this way, Levi unknowingly collected 55 Soul Stone.

Refining all of these should increase your mental strength by about 200 points.

Of course, you can't refine too much at once.

Otherwise, just like before, the expansion of mental power will be too rapid, leading to a weak foundation.

After sweeping through all the other materials and resources on the stall, Levi only had 30 million left.

The other demons stared at Levi, dumbfounded.

All the things they bought together couldn't compare to what Levi bought alone... Is this the world of the rich? Damn the wealth gap! Even the black-armored giant couldn't help but glance at Levi again.

In the Sixth Layer Hell, those who can spend tens of millions in the Nether Market are all elites, and those who can spend hundreds of millions are only the top Archdemon.

Given his status and strength, he could naturally tell that Levi, this "Pig Demon," was an outsider in disguise.

However, he didn't mind at all.

The Underworld is a neutral world, responsible for maintaining balance across multiple dimensions.

All races and dimensions are treated equally.

Just as death is fair to everyone.

Throughout history, countless people have sought immortality. Yet, in the end, they all fade away before the long river of time; it's only a matter of time.

Another reason why the Netherworld Merchant noticed Levi was that he sensed the aura of a great figure in this man.

With a wave of his hand, Levi directly pocketed the remaining [Lost Box] from the stall.

In the end, they finally spent all the money.

"Earn money in the Underworld and spend it in the Underworld; don't even think about taking a single penny home."

Levi's Storage Ring now contains 30,000 extra memory boxes, which he'll slowly open once he returns to the Wizard World.

He loves raffles the most.

A series of eyes scrutinized Levi, their gazes filled with ill intent.

Levi didn't care at all.

The underworld merchant found it amusing.

In the past, the goods in the underworld market in this remote Nether Market could never be sold out, but this time they were sold out ahead of schedule.

In the blink of an eye, all the other demons vanished from the square, leaving only Levi behind.

Levi's heart skipped a beat, and he calmly asked, "Senior, I don't think I've violated any of the rules here, have I?"

The black-armored giant laughed:

"Little one, don't worry, I mean you no harm. I just sensed a familiar presence in you."

Levi said, "Please speak, senior."

The black-armored giant asked, "What is your relationship with the Undead Nether Emperor?"

Levi said, "I have never heard of the Undead Nether Emperor."

The black-armored giant laughed:

"Oh, right, the title ' Undead Nether Emperor ' is just what we call it in the Underworld. In the multiverse, its name is... Phoenix."

Levi thought to himself.

As expected of a powerful being from the Underworld, he was able to sense a trace of the Phoenix's aura emanating from me.

It seems that things are as he predicted.

The Phoenix must be a big shot in the Underworld.

The "Undead Nether Emperor" sounds like an extremely powerful being.

Perhaps even in a place like the Underworld, they are noble rulers.

Levi said, "Some of the cultivation techniques I practice are related to the Phoenix, which is probably why."

The black-armored giant said, "I see. The Undead Nether Emperor once said that he did indeed leave behind some extremely rare bloodline remnants in the multiverse. It seems that you must have cultivated a path of bloodline advancement."

Levi was somewhat shocked.

He truly came to understand the horror of the Underworld.

A mere underworld merchant was able to discern some of my secrets.

But thinking about it, it makes sense, Nether Mother River connects multiple dimensions.

What kind of civilizations and extraordinary systems hasn't the Underworld seen?

Compared to such an ancient world, the Wizard World can only be described as a rising star.

Levi said, "That's true."

The black-armored giant said, "As one of the descendants of the Undead Nether Emperor's bloodline, you are qualified to go to the Underworld. Would you be interested in taking a look?"

Levi smiled helplessly:

"Senior, I think it's best to forget it. With my strength, I shouldn't set foot in such a high place."

The black-armored giant laughed:

"You're quite cautious... Fine, I just noticed you're special and decided to chat with you on a whim. I observe your future fortune, which is like the rising sun, always ascending. Ten thousand years from now, you might become another powerful figure who shakes multiple dimensions. Let's leave a good impression today so it'll be easier to talk when we meet again, hahaha."

Levi was flattered and said, "Senior thinks too highly of me. I am just an Nameless nobody. How could I dare to shake up the multiverse?"

The black-armored giant said meaningfully, "Nameless you is not as rich as you, especially since you are an outsider."

Levi knew that the black-armored giant had most likely guessed that he had stolen the money. However, the giant didn't seem angry; perhaps it was something he was used to.

The black-armored giant said, "Judging from your spiritual energy fluctuations, you should be a wizard... Speaking of which, there was once a powerful being, just like you, who came from the Wizard World. After he entered the Underworld, he shocked many Nether Emperor. His name was... Sauron. As a wizard, you should have heard of him."

Levi said, "That's for sure, he is the Ancestor of Wizards."

The black-armored giant said, "If you go to the Underworld in the future, you may be able to admire the style of the Ancestor of Wizards. He is a very famous person in the Underworld."

Levi nodded.

Surprisingly, this underworld merchant quite enjoys chatting.

It might be because of my [Underworld Walker] special effect.

After chatting for a long time, the black-armored giant said, "I should go back to the Underworld. Oh, by the way, my name is Di Gao Ta Han. If you ever come to the Underworld in the future, you can look for me."

Levi laughed:

"If I go to the Underworld, I will contact you immediately, senior."

He estimated that, given his personality, if he wanted to go to the Underworld, he would need at least the strength of Ninth Ring Great Wizard.

At that point, the other party might start calling you "senior".

The burly man in black armor rode a mast-mounted sailboat into the illusory image of the Mother River in the sky.

He stood at the bow of the ship, looking at Levi, still waving goodbye.

Levi never expected that the identity of the Underworld Walker would be so useful.

Moreover, the people of the Underworld were not what he had imagined.

From the man's speech, Levi sensed a detachment from worldly affairs.

Perhaps it's because, being a being of the Underworld, they've witnessed countless deaths and comings.

On the ship.

The black-armored giant scattered all the collected Nether Coin into the Nether Mother River.

These banknotes transformed into wisps of black energy, merging into the atmosphere and disappearing.

On the other side.

After bidding farewell to the Han Dynasty, Levi discovered that he was surrounded by a group of demons.

Like jackals, they have been lying in wait for a long time.

Among them was a level six Archdemon who said coldly, "Inferior pig demon, share some of the [Lost Box] on your body with us. Sharing is better than keeping it to yourself."

Levi shed his boar demon form and transformed into a swordsman clad in black armor and shrouded in Black Qi.

He gripped a black greatsword and grinned crookedly:

"Hehehe, I never thought someone would dare to rob me! Is it because my Purgatory Demon Sword is too weak to lift, or have you all gotten too cocky?"

Levi drew his sword and slashed out, unleashing streaks of black flame that formed Demon Dragon, hurtling towards the demons in all directions! In an instant.

The devils were in an uproar.

"Damn it, it's the Purgatory Demon Sword! This person has appeared here! Quickly notify the Desire Realm Witch!"

"Run! He's a monster who killed four Archdemon with a single sword strike!"

"No wonder the Seventh Layer sent several level-seven experts to investigate this matter. Has this person's strength become so exaggerated?"

After the Battle of Goth City.

The infamous Purgatory Demon Sword is known to everyone in the Sixth Layer of Hell.

Because the battlefield was too chaotic, Levi never showed up.

Therefore, the demons all believed that the Purgatory Demon Sword had instantly killed the four dukes.

His bounty skyrocketed to 500 million Nether Coin! The Purgatory Demon Sword was quite satisfied with this result.

On the battlefield, Levi unleashed his full power.

Streaks of black flame sword energy, like cutting grass, took the lives of demons one by one.

Three thousand shadow soldiers emerged from the shadows behind Levi, surged onto the battlefield, and began to slaughter indiscriminately.

One man can command an army; in terms of both numbers and strength, he is no less than these devilish troops!

Seeing that things were not going well, the Archdemon tried to slip away.

But then Levi appeared, stepping through the air. With a single sword strike, an icy barrier sealed him off! Immediately following, with the move "Peng Soars Nine Heavens," a majestic black flame sword aura engulfed the Grand Duke! Before long, except for a few demons who managed to escape, most of the demons were buried there.

With the Shadow Legion back in place, Levi exhaled a breath of stale air and said, "Very good, the bounty on the Purgatory Demon Sword will increase again. How will he thank me?"

Collect all the corpses and give them to A Long as food.

As for Leon, his speed of collecting souls was completely outmatched by Levi's speed of killing.

Therefore, many souls of low-level demons have escaped into the Underworld.

Levi was helpless in the face of this.

In fact, after chatting with the underworld merchant Di Gao...

He realized that he had underestimated the power of the Underworld.

Perhaps it's a good thing for these numerous low-level souls to enter the Underworld.

In this way, the balance of rules in the Underworld will not be disrupted on a large scale.

Otherwise, if the Underworld really investigates, they might have to fix this "bug" of Leon. Finally, the spoils of war of these demons were inventoried.

Levi frowned and said, "Trash! So many people, and they only contributed less than 100 million Nether Coin... Have they really worked hard all these years? Why do they only have so little money in their pockets?"

It turns out that the most numerous creatures in this Hell are not demons, but... the poor! Suddenly, the danger perception system issued a frantic warning.

"A level seven expert has arrived. It's best to leave."

Not long after.

Several powerful auras descended.

They were slender and curvaceous, exuding endless allure; they were none other than the three Witch sisters.

The leading demoness of the Desire Realm Witch frowned and said:

"We rushed as fast as we could, but he still got away. We never expected him to be hiding in this remote border town."

The Form Realm Witch said, "Sister, is the Purgatory Demon Sword really as powerful as rumored? It killed four Grand Dukes with a single strike? If so, will it be dangerous for us to continue chasing after it?"

The Emptiness Realm Witch said, "Don't worry, my strength is far beyond that of an ordinary early-stage seventh level. No matter how strong that Purgatory Demon Sword is, it is still only a sixth level and nothing to fear."

The Desire Realm Witch said, "You are wrong. Although the Purgatory Demon Sword is powerful, it is absolutely impossible for it to kill four Grand Dukes with one strike. The truly formidable one is another prey. I have seen him make a move. His sword light stretched for hundreds of miles, and crimson flames swept across the sky. His power was terrifying."

The two younger sisters heard their older sister's evaluation.

They became even more curious about the accomplice of the Purgatory Demon Sword.

The Desire Realm Witch said, "If I can cultivate with this person, my strength will surely improve further... Keep searching, otherwise, if he returns to the Wizard World, our chances will be slim. You two, just help your sister well, and after I've finished with him, I'll share him with you."

The Form Realm Witch asked coquettishly, "Sister, why can't we be together?"

The Desire Realm Witch said, "I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it and will be drained dry by you... Such a promising talent must be utilized sustainably so as not to be wasted."

Hell.

A certain city.

The Purgatory Demon Sword, hiding its identity and evading pursuit, stared at its wanted poster.

[The Purgatory Demon Sword, bounty: 530 million Nether Coin, from the Wizard World, possesses powerful swordsmanship, has killed the Archdemon multiple times, and is extremely arrogant...]

"What's going on? Why has my bounty increased by another 30 million?"

Completely baffled, he left in silence.

The gates to the Seventh Layer are now controlled by the enforcers of Hell.

He could only continue to wander on the Sixth Layer, fighting a guerrilla war with the demons.

Sooner or later, he will use the [Black King Suppresses Prison] in his hand to shatter through the Nine Hells!

Six months later.

Nora, Year 18, the Month of Origin.

There are only six months left until the Dark Ancient Tower opens.

Ancient Dragon Continent.

Levi returned to the Mortal World after being away for several years.

"Phew, the air in the Mortal World is still the sweetest. Hell has too much negative energy, a heavy death aura, and relatively thin elemental power. It's really not suitable for wizards to cultivate. My second brother is also a ruthless person. He actually cultivated to the Origin Soul realm in such an environment. Let that Desire Realm Witch be proud for a while longer. Once I get a little stronger, I'll go and enslave her."

The Hundred Flower Hall.

The Hundred Flower Knight, who was meditating, opened his eyes and said with a joyful expression, "Finally, I'm home."

Levi's figure appeared, and he said:

"During my absence, nothing happened in the territory, right?"

Hundred Flowers said, "With me guarding this place, what could possibly happen?"

Levi Wei chuckled, picked up Hundred Flowers, and said, "I've gained a lot in Hell this time. Come on, let's go to bed and I'll tell you all about it."

Hundred Flowers blushed and said, "How can I concentrate on the lecture then?"

Emperor Palace.

Levi and Hundred Flowers recounted the strange and wondrous tales of their journey to Hell.

Like rain after a long drought, or a brief separation that feels like a new marriage.

By the end, both of them were parched.

Several more days passed.

After hearing Levi recount the story of the Purgatory Demon Sword, Hundred Flowers lay on the bed, slightly out of breath, and said:

"The Magic Sword Dragon Wizard, I've heard of him. He's a generation younger than me. I thought he had already perished... I never expected him to be Sixth Ring senior in Hell, all without a sound."

Levi said, "Yes, this person has a good character, is straightforward and righteous, and is worth getting to know well. He has now become my subordinate."

Hundred Flowers joked, "You're quite something, aren't you?"

She suddenly said seriously:

"By the way, shortly after you went to Hell, a great figure came to the Endless Sea."

Levi asked:

Who is it?

Hundred Flowers said, "High Skywalker, the council's chief law enforcement officer, said he came to the Endless Sea to thoroughly investigate previous difficult cases, but I suspect that the Leitney Family invited him to investigate the cause of death of their own clansmen."

Levi pondered and said, "No wonder I felt someone was using astrology to predict my fate; it turns out this person was behind it all."

Hundred Flowers said in surprise, "It seems that his astrology failed. Otherwise, if he knew you were in Hell, he would definitely have tried to get rid of you there without anyone noticing."

Levi nodded.

"It was the book that Ms. Lucy gave me that saved me."

Hundred Flowers said, "Ms. Lucy is amazing. I've always felt that she's not an ordinary Primal Soul Wizard."

Levi expressed his agreement, and then asked, "By the way, has the Law Enforcement Department come to the Ancient Dragon Continent to investigate?"

Hundred Flowers shook her head.

"Not at the moment. Given the Leitney Family's meticulous nature, they certainly won't let this matter rest. But since even the Great Wizard couldn't predict your future, I'm relieved."

As for Legendary Wizard, she believed the Leitney Family couldn't afford to hire such a figure.

It's not that the Leitney Family doesn't have Legendary Wizard backing them. It's just that Legendary Realm wouldn't get involved in something as trivial as this.

Levi said, "I'm going into seclusion for a while, and I'll need you to help me guard the territory during that time."

Hundred Flowers said, "I know, you can focus on your cultivation. We'll try to reach the seventh level of the environment as soon as possible. Even if we're found out, I don't think the Wizard Council will abandon you for the sake of an Electric Eel Wizard."

Levi reassured him, "Don't worry, they won't be able to find anything."

The Electric Eel Wizard's soul had been completely devoured, and even his memories had been extracted.

Its flesh and blood became the Jin Ke La that A Long, and is now being absorbed by the plants.

He was essentially wiped from the world by Levi, leaving no trace.

Return to the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

Levi took a bath and changed clothes, while Music Fungus played "Good Luck Comes".

Fungi don't enhance luck, but Levi believes this piece should have a miraculous effect.

"With over 30,000 boxes, we should be able to get some good stuff."

He randomly opened a box, and a series of illusory images unfolded like a revolving lantern.

A tiny green turtle hatched, eventually growing into a green-haired turtle, which was then killed by a wizard...

That's it?

1000 Nether Coin, gone in a flash!

However, he was mentally prepared and continued opening the boxes.

In this way, it will take three days.

Levi opened all 30,000 boxes.

The vast majority of them were useless memories, and Levi treated them as reading one short story after another.

The protagonists of these stories are no longer alive.

However, it wasn't entirely without gains.

Among them, Levi obtained a very good Origin Soul spell and a combat technique from an alien race, both at the sixth level.

In this way, he calculated that he still made a profit.

After all, it only cost 30 million Nether Coin.

The Lovers Rune is still very useful; for others, it would most likely be a complete waste.

The Origin Soul spell, named "Holy Light Barrier," is a rare spell from the Light Faction, and its quality is considered excellent.

Levi immediately learned it and made it his sixth Origin Soul spell.

Now, putting aside his innate spells, almost all of the Origin Soul spells he has mastered are offensive, so he definitely needs a defensive one.

We cannot abandon the wizard's defenses just because the Knight's defenses are strong.

The Holy Light Barrier can serve as his Sixth Ring Protective Force Field.

Moreover, with Blood War imminent, he felt it necessary to learn some Light Faction to deal with the demons.

The sixth-level combat skill is a whip technique called "Whip of Blood".

A level six alien powerhouse from a medium-sized plane.

This type of combat skill is really not a good match for Levi.

He placed it in the Twilight Temple for the Knight to study and decipher. They extracted the essence and discarded the dross to create Knight Combat Techniques.

Next, Levi patiently waited for the Ancient Tower to open.

He couldn't wait to go up to the Sixth Layer and take a look.

This day.

Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.

Flame Mountain.

The Black Lotus Beast, which was cultivating, opened its eyes and looked up at the sky.

An endless stream of fire elemental power began to surge.

"Surely no one has broken through to level six, right?"

The Black Lotus Beast murmured.

"No, it should be that dragon egg, it's about to hatch!"

Not long after.

Sensing something was wrong, Levi and Mana rushed over.

Levi gazed at the giant Black Scale egg in the Land of Blazing Flames, his heart pounding with excitement.

"After hundreds of years, this thing is finally about to hatch."

Mana said, "The legendary pure-blooded Dragonkind, I can't wait!"

Dragonkind and pure-blooded Dragonkind are completely different concepts. The latter are rare, uncommon, and powerful!

Hundred Flowers also arrived. She glanced at Mana, then stood silently beside Levi, linking her arm with his and saying:

"The only pure-blooded Dragonkind I've ever seen is Immortal Banyan Dragon Lady. Today I can finally see something new."

The birth of a pure-blooded Dragonkind caused a sensation, and the members of the Dragon Palace all gathered to witness the birth of a legend.

The mere birth of the dragon has caused such a commotion, comparable to a sixth-level tribulation. This is the prestige of a pure-blooded Dragonkind! The power of the fire element was fully injected into the Black Scale giant egg, and raging flames scorched the surface of the eggshell, causing the air to distort due to the high temperature.

Cracks began to appear in the eggshell, and black Ashes and sparks flew around.

The sky above Flame Mountain was filled with Ashes, forming gray clouds resembling dragon scales.

Click.

The Black Scale giant egg cracked completely.

With a high-pitched dragon roar, even the members of the Dragon Palace, including the sixth-level Dragonkind, felt an instinctive fear.

This is the true might of a pure-blooded Dragonkind, which is somewhat different from Levi's Knight methods.

A young Ashes dragon lay coiled on the ground, its eyes closed.

Its body was covered in scales, which glowed like embers from burning charcoal.

Not long after, the young dragon opened its eyes, spread its wings, its wingspan reaching over ten meters, and soared into the sky with a level-five aura!

Levi said, "No wonder it took so long to develop. It's already at level five right after birth... a height that is unattainable for Sentient Beings."

Hundred Flowers said, "It is indeed extraordinary, but I don't know if it is hostile to us."

Levi said, "It's alright."

If this little guy doesn't know what's good for him, then just assign him to Scarlet Enslavement.

Even if it becomes stronger in the future, it is only at level five now and cannot cause any major waves.

Everyone watched the Ash Dragon with bated breath, wondering what it would do.

The Ash Dragon curiously observed these people, and then, following its instincts, flew towards Levi, whose aura was closest to it.

It landed beside Levi, lowered its head, lay there, and fell peacefully asleep...

A snoring sound, like the roar of an engine, rang out, leaving everyone stunned.

Hundred Flowers hesitated and said, "This... it doesn't mean it thinks you're its father, does it?"

Mana said, "That's exactly how it looks to me."

Levi was lost in thought.

"It seems that when the Ash Dragon reincarnated was born, it was still unable to awaken its past life memories... It's also possible that it encountered some kind of change and lost its previous memories."

The Ash Dragon in front of him seemed to him much like an ordinary Dragonkind cub, innocent and ignorant.

Of course, it's also possible that he's acting, pretending to know nothing when he clearly possesses level nine memories.

The Ash Dragon was exhausted after hatching and had used up a lot of its energy.

Levi dismissed everyone and stayed with the young dragon alone.

Several days later.

The baby dragon has finally awakened.

It placed its head at Levi's feet, looking extremely hungry.

Levi took out some extraordinary creature meat and nutritional potions, and asked:

Can you talk?

The little guy stared at Levi with a puzzled look, seemingly unable to understand what he was saying. However, when it came to food, it began to devour it without any hesitation.

Levi stroked its dragon head and said, "Eat up, and remember, I am your family."

The Dragon Palace has welcomed a new member.

Levi named the Ash Dragon "Sander".

Sander truly treated him like a father, following Levi around like a little puppy all day long.

Considering Sander's young age, Levi did not start drawing blood for the time being, since there was no shortage of Death Ember Dragon Secret Medicine at the moment.

Six months later.

Sander is now able to hunt on his own, Levi has released some extraordinary creatures into the Fairy Realm for him to hunt.

Time flies.

This day.

Emperor Palace.

Levi took out the Ancient Tower Scepter and watched the countdown reach zero.

After a flash of light, he had vanished from the spot.

The Dark Ancient Tower.

The Fifth Layer.

Million Great Mountains.

Levi's figure appeared.

As far as the eye could see, there was a dark, damp, and demonic underground world, where the Bomb Mushroom were growing well.

Levi picked a batch of mature level four and five mushrooms.

These things can all be used as mass-produced talismans.

He wanted to equip all the soldiers in the warband with Bomb Mushroom.

He also left many plants for natural propagation to expand the population.

Finally, he took out some Alchemy creatures of the Fifth Ring level, combined them with an array, and guarded the place to prevent the natives from harvesting them.

After doing all this.

He returned to the site of the great battle he fought against Luo Man of the Nine Cities Alliance years ago.

The large crater left by the Thunderstrike Cannon in the past is still there today.

However, it has been covered with lush forest vegetation and has been transformed into a small lake by accumulating water.

"Unbeknownst to us, Luo Man has been dead for over two hundred years."

Levi's eyes flickered, and his spiritual energy spread out, as if he were searching for something here.

Suddenly, he leaped downwards, heading towards the ground.

The lower you go, the higher the temperature.

Finally, a vast ocean of lava was reflected in front of Levi.

A small, fiery snake, only a foot long, swam through the lava, breathing in and out the power of fire element, and its body bore extremely faint traces of runes.

Levi smiled with satisfaction.

"As expected, after the fall of the Primal Soul Wizard, the Traces of Truth dissipated into the world, and there was a chance that it would form Truth Wonder... However, it seems that this little snake is only the prototype of an earth-level artifact, and it will take several hundred years to fully develop. It is obviously too late to use it for me."

Levi estimated that such esoteric knowledge should not be a secret in the upper echelons of the Wizard World.

Those top wizarding organizations might use this method to build a Origin Soul Graveyard specifically for cultivating Truth Wonder.

"Now that this matter is settled, we can proceed to the Sixth Layer."

Ancient Tower.

The Sixth Layer.

This is also a complete world, its area comparable to some large planes.

However, unlike the Sixth Layer, the Fifth Layer did not develop into three major indigenous civilizations.

This place is filled with powerful alien races, each dominating their own territory.

After gaining access, although Levi did not know the exact location of the strange object, he could deduce which places might harbor it based on the terrain and environment of this world.

He released Goldie and had him lead the way.

After a long time, he arrived at an extremely hot place with continuous volcanoes.

Goldie squeaked and soon led Levi to a fiery red shrub on the edge of a cliff.

There were still a few scattered jujubes growing on the bushes.

Levi's face lit up with joy.

"Fire Date are very beneficial for the cultivation and meditation of the Combustion Faction... This item is useful to both me and the Holy Infant, especially the Holy Infant, because he is too busy Artifact Forging and he can't keep up with the speed of me and Gandalf."

The fruit of the Fire Date ripens once every two hundred years, but with the help of fertilizer, it can ripen once every hundred years.

Levi immediately dug up the Fire Date, intending to take it back with him.

In the Wizard World, a single Fire Date is worth millions of Great Stone; it's practically a money tree.

After all, rare and precious materials that can assist in the cultivation of the Origin Soul are extremely scarce.

In comparison, the Ghost Date is of a much lower level, and its effect on the Origin Soul is far less than that of the Fire Date.

Levi touched Goldie and said:

"This young man is becoming more and more reliable."

Time flies.

Levi, with Goldie by his side, traveled all over the Sixth Layer, traversing various treacherous places and finding many resources and rare plants.

Many of these places are guarded by Level 6 beings. However, they are all insignificant compared to Levi.

However, along the way, he only obtained three Earth-level treasures and one Sky-level treasure, half of which Levi had already refined.

A year is almost over, and we haven't even seen a single Morning Star artifact.

This day.

Levi followed Goldie to another place that seemed to contain treasure.

What appeared before us was a continuous range of snow-capped mountains.

Danger is being strongly detected and warned of.

This suggests that there should be seven levels of beings lying dormant in the snow-capped mountains.

Judging from Goldie's anxious look, there's probably some incredible treasure inside.

Fully armed and having secured an escape route, Levi, with his Hermit Rune flashing, prepared to investigate further.
