In life, we must learn to make peace with ourselves.

If you can't beat them, then give up.

The Black Dragon Wizard thought to himself:

"I will never participate in the hunting operations of the Twilight Hall Master again. Let whoever wants to go go. As for Gandalf, we can make some plans."

As a key figure in the Body Refinement Department and a genius in body refinement, this person must possess many valuable items.

Especially Gandalf's body-refining method. If I could obtain it and use it as a reference to verify my own, I might be able to reach the Ninth Ring body-refining realm. However, Gandalf always travels with two others, so I need to find an opportunity to be alone.

Facing the Twilight Hall Master, the Black Dragon Wizard lacked confidence. But Gandalf, with his mere seventh-ring cultivation level, was completely at ease.

He's not very good at magic right now... but when it comes to body refinement, he won't allow anyone in the Wizard World to be more powerful than him.

He, the Black Dragon Wizard, is the true King of Body Refinement!

Blood River World.

A blood moon hangs high in the sky.

A vast, crimson river, its origin and destination unknown, forms a ring, encircling the Blood River World. Countless capillary-like branches extend into the void.

From time to time, the True Spirit of the Blood Clan can be seen flowing from these branch rivers into the main stream and disappearing.

Within the Blood River, powerful auras lingered.

One of the giant beasts, standing three thousand meters tall and covered in ferocious blood scales, opened its eyes, its expression somewhat surprised.

"Luo Wei has lost after all."

"Luckily, I didn't go by myself."

"I never imagined that the Twilight Hall Master would have grown to such an extent. No wonder the Blood God values him so highly."

Time flies.

Four years later, in Nora 490.

Endless Sea, Outer Ring District 12.

The 914-year-old Levi opened the Demon Slaying Ranking.

His points have reached 500 million.

The second-ranked World-Extinguishing Thunder only has 380 million, while the Light Divine Sword and the Hand of the Fire God barely break the 300 million mark. He is now far ahead, and for a long time to come, no one will be able to surpass him.

Looking down the leaderboard, Elena is now ranked in the top 20, with 49 million points and 44 million battle merits.

In a few more years, she should be able to exchange for the Full Moon Wonder. Her rapid progress is inseparable from the help of the Wizard Tower and her companion spirit.

All three Gondorian Three Heroes of Gondor have broken into the top 30 of the leaderboard: Gandalf with 40 million points, Victor with 39 million, and the Holy Infant with 38.9 million.

These Three Brothers are not only inseparable, but their rankings on the leaderboard are also neck and neck. This is probably because they've been working together to hunt demons, resulting in a relatively even distribution of battle merits.

Over the years, the Three Heroes of Gondor have hunted down demon lords that are no less numerous than those of elite warbands, accumulating a wealth of materials and capital for their magic array, Artifact Forging, and Potion Making businesses.

After Soraya of the Mountain Giant Wizard Corps advanced to the seventh ring, her combat merits increased rapidly. Because she had been hunting demons for many years and started early, her points were still above Hundred Flowers's, exceeding 50 million. The vice leader, Laplace, also had around 30 million points.

This marks the 276th year since the start of the Blood War. In the blink of an eye, this war of civilizations has lasted for nearly three hundred years, comparable to the lifespan of a secular dynasty, yet it is only in its initial stage.

Over the years, the top twenty seventh-ring wizards have all exchanged for the Full Moon Wonder through their own efforts, achieving a qualitative leap in their strength. The overall strength of the seventh-ring wizards has significantly improved.

For an ordinary seventh-ring wizard, exchanging the seventh-ring-limited Sun Flare Oddity for the seventh-ring environment is unrealistic.

If they have the ability, they will definitely prioritize advancing to the eighth ring in order to pursue the limited-edition Sun Flare Oddity available only to those in the eighth ring.

However, for the top ten prodigies on the leaderboard, such as the Light Divine Sword and Gatling Gun, they most likely intend to hold off on advancing to the eighth ring for a while. This is partly to imprint more witch marks, and partly to exchange for Sun Flare Oddity, before finally achieving the eighth ring and continuing their efforts to exchange for the limited-edition Sun Flare Oddity available to eighth-ring players.

So far, although the Wizard World has lost many Primal Soul Wizard, it has also given birth to many new Origin Soul. These wizards, who have been tempered by hundreds of years of war, have the hope of going further and becoming the pillars of the Wizard World.

On the Seventh Level Demon Slaying Ranking, the supernova Link, with his advanced Sixth Ring cultivation, relied on his Secret Sword Magic Array to break into the top twenty. The number of demon lords who died at his hands exceeded the number in two hands, including some demons at the late sixth level.

Link also exchanged for his own Morning Star artifact, but unfortunately, it wasn't of the metal faction. He went to great lengths to trade with someone and obtained the [Silver King Armband], a Morning Star artifact.

The benefits of refining it are numerous.

Not only did his mental strength increase, but he also gained the unique talent of the metal faction, [Silver Will]. He was already the [Child of Element], and now he was even more formidable. Furthermore, Link obtained his first companion spirit artifact, named [Silver King Sword Armor]. Although he had previously refined many earth and sky-level rare artifacts, he had never obtained a companion spirit artifact before.

The Silver King Sword Armor is extremely special, as it is in the form of armor. When used, it can materialize its accompanying spirit around the user, transforming it into a silver battle armor.

The armor features numerous sword blades protruding from its back, resembling those of a saber-toothed dragon. It is incredibly stylish and can be launched at enemies, hence the name "sword armor."

The sword armor and Link's sword formation techniques are perfectly matched, making Link even more unbeatable in battles against Link of the same level since its creation. Ordinary Sixth Ring- ring wizards are simply no match for it.

Link's Qi Sect cultivation has also progressed rapidly, and he is now a Level 5 Qi Sect. If he can Shattering the Void like Victor and comprehend the [Shattering Formless Sword Qi], he will be even more at ease on the battlefield.

Looking back, Victor and Link, through the path of the White Emperor Sword Sect, brought renewed attention to the already declining Golden Stone Qi Sect.

The young men and women of the Panda Clan mostly focus their attention on the Metal and Stone Sect, dreaming of becoming sword cultivators, slaying demons and monsters, and galloping across the battlefield.

The Fire Dragon Knight, also belonging to the Ancient Dragon Continent, became even more ferocious after advancing to the late stage of level six.

He and his Fire Dragon Apostle Corps have also made a name for themselves in the Wizard World, becoming a fighting organization comparable to elite wizarding groups.

The Fire Dragon Knight is currently ranked fifteenth on the Demon Slaying Ranking, competing with a group of ancient monsters who have lived for over a thousand years and are at the Sixth Ring of perfection.

He also has many suitors in the Wizard World, including many Origin Soul witches, many of whom are members of top witch organizations, with excellent looks and high status.

However, the Fire Dragon Knight didn't like it. If you wanted to become his woman, you had to join the Ancient Dragon Continent. Otherwise, there were too many restrictions and it would be too troublesome.

In addition, the names of Blood Knight and Black Knight have appeared in the top 100 of the Seventh Level Demon Slaying Ranking. It's no longer just Fire Dragon Knight shining alone; the Knight have gained more exposure.

The Shadow Queen, also a Gemini, ranks 17th on the list. After refining the Morning Star artifact [Shadow Dragon Heart], the abilities of her Shadow Army, including Shadow Magic, have been significantly enhanced.

In addition, she also gave birth to a companion spirit, the Lone Shadow Flying Dragon. The Lone Shadow Flying Dragon has powerful teleportation and survival abilities, and can also summon a small number of shadow creatures to fight. This makes the Shadow Queen's combat ability far exceed her true level.

After doing some calculations, Levi found that the Ancient Dragon Continent actually occupied four of the top 100 spots on the Seventh Level Demon Slaying Ranking, which was much better than he had imagined.

The competition for the Sixth Ring wizard rankings is far more intense than that for the seventh-ring, with thousands of sixth-level powerhouses vying for the top spot. Traditional factions such as Earth-Fire Wind-Water are even more dominant, occupying half of the rankings.

"Time flies, and not only me, but everyone is making progress."

There are less than thirty years left before the Ancient Tower opens again.

Levi had originally planned to acquire the [Shadow Emblem] before entering the Ancient Tower, believing that refining it would further enhance his strength. He was confident that once he entered the Ancient Tower again, he could defeat the Spider King, gain another powerful general, and bring back the remains of the Wind Illusion Dragon.

He is still 1.1 billion battle merits short, which means he must earn at least 40 million battle merits every year to complete the task.

After killing the Demon Fish Great Lord, he later killed a level 8 early-stage Flame Demon and obtained 20 million points.

If we can guarantee the killing of one Eighth Level Demon per year on average, this goal is not difficult to achieve.

The difficulty lies in the fact that the demons have also become shrewd. After learning that Levi was hunting down Eighth Level Demon, the demons sent even more Eighth Level Demon to join them.

Each region was guarded by at least two or three level-eight guardians, some even in the mid or late stages of level eight. Levi used all his methods, and although he could hunt down level eights, he was still somewhat overwhelmed by so many.

Moreover, the demons were also analyzing and trying to crack Levi's methods. The devil was always one step ahead of the saint, and the two sides engaged in a long game of strategy.

"Alright, I can't be impatient. I've been too eager for success these past few years. Anyway, I'm far ahead. As long as I can exchange for the [Shadow Emblem] and the [Flame Emperor's Sword] before advancing to the eighth ring, that's fine."

Levi has learned to make peace with himself and no longer demands too much of himself. As Gatling said, there's no need to be so rigid.

These past few years, he's been a full-time demon hunter, constantly on edge and never daring to slack off. Exhausted, he plans to calm down and return to the Ancient Dragon Continent to cultivate for a while, while also studying divine runes, thus balancing work and rest.

Return to the Mortal World, to the Outer Sea Land.

Levi frowned, and the lens of his right eye became visible.

In his vision, a faint wisp of demonic energy spread through the void, drifting into the distance. And that direction was none other than the Ancient Dragon Continent.

"This demonic energy is at the eighth level."

Levi immediately concealed himself and gave chase. Not long after, he stopped and looked in that direction.

In the void ahead, the heavens and earth collapsed, and the vast ocean transformed into towering waves. Two powerful figures, exuding the aura of the eighth level, crisscrossed each other, stirring up the power of the surrounding world with every move, shattering everything. One of them, clad in Black Scale armor, was tall and slender, wielding an ancient, bright silver spear. She was a woman of a different race, about ten meters tall and similar in height to a human.

Behind her were rows of silver-armored and bronze-armored puppets, arranged in a battle formation, exuding an imposing aura. Arrows rained down from the puppets' hands, transforming into beams of laser light that hurtled towards the enemy.

Its opponent in the battle was an Eighth Level Demon. The demon had an illusory body with thousands of faces constantly changing on its surface, but its face was smooth and flat, without any facial features.

The overwhelming demonic energy transformed into countless black pythons, tearing at the alien woman. Twisted faces flew out, howling and screaming as they charged forward.

"It's actually the Formless Demon..."

To date, Levi has never killed a level eight Formless Demon, not even a level seven one. These demons are too good at hiding and disguising themselves.

Even though Levi can track demonic energy, it is difficult to detect, and searching for it is a waste of time and not cost-effective.

Formless Demon are relatively rare, and coupled with their powerful disguise abilities, they are usually special forces of demons, hence their high value, several times that of other Eighth Level Demon.

As for the female alien, Levi had never seen her before, but the silver armor and bronze puppets around her reminded Levi of a New Continent he had explored a long time ago. There were such things around the tomb owner there, and he had even taken two of them for the Holy Infant to study and create Alchemy creatures.

"I never imagined that after hundreds of years, the tomb's owner would still be in the Wizard World."

On the other side, the female alien who was fighting the Formless Demon frowned slightly, as if she sensed someone nearby. However, with a formidable enemy at hand, she dared not let her guard down.

Her real name was Louise, a princess of the humanoid Ancient Tomb Clan. Her father was the ruler of the Tomb Ancient Tomb Clan of the Tomb Plane, the Nine Dragons Emperor Saint Keys.

Long ago, in order to explore the outside world, she began to venture alone into the Darkness Zone, embarking on a long interdimensional journey. During this time, she was seriously injured in an attack by powerful pirates from the Darkness Zone.

To heal her injuries, she followed the ways of the Ancient Tomb Clan and set up a tomb in a medium-sized plane, where she hibernated to heal her wounds.

Unexpectedly, after waking up, he found himself in the Wizard World due to the convergence of planes.

Later, she clashed with the pioneering group exploring the New Continent, defeated the wizards, and returned to the Darkness Zone.

The Ancient Tomb Clan are Long-Lived Species, with an exceptionally long lifespan. Having nothing to do, she transformed into an ordinary person, experiencing life in the Wizard World, immersing herself in exotic customs, and incidentally searching for the thief who stole her puppet years ago. Once she's tired of it all, she'll return to her boring old home.

Little did she know, the Wizard World was so interesting that she spent hundreds of years playing around with it.

Three hundred years ago, the shadow of Blood War war began to loom over the Wizard World.

Louise suddenly thought of her elderly father, the Nine Dragons Emperor, who was alone at home.

Fearing that the Blood War would spread to the Tomb Plane, she went through many hardships to return to the Ancient Tomb Clan.

Then, she saw the scene she least wanted to see.

The Ancient Tomb Clan, as expected, has also been invaded by demons.

A powerful being from the 434th layer of the Abyss, Shadow Demon Queen Ricksa, is leading an army of countless Shadow Fiends and numerous summoned shadow creatures in an attack on the Tomb Plane, and the war is nearing its end.

The Shadow Demon Queen is a demon lord from the 400th level of the Abyss, possessing immense power capable of slaying gods.

Although my father was powerful, he was no match for him. After a century of struggle, my father was ultimately defeated.

The Ancient Tomb Clan suffered heavy casualties. He and Ancient Tomb Clan generals fought desperately, allowing the Ancient Tomb Clan's embers to escape the Tomb Plane and seek a new path in the Darkness Zone. As for himself, as the ruler, he would perish with the Tomb Plane.

Before her fall, her father dismissed all nine legendary Dragonkind used to pull the chariot, freeing them. He also sent away all the powerful members of the Ancient Tomb Clan, including princes and princesses, as well as himself.

In the Darkness Zone, she witnessed firsthand the death of the invincible Nine Dragons Emperor, who had made the Ancient Tomb Clan great, the fall of the Tomb Plane, the takeover of the Abyss Demons, and the devouring of the Plane's will by the Shadow Demon Queen.

Then, the Tomb Plane vanished... All the civilizations defeated by demons, all the planes occupied, will eventually become part of the Abyss.

This is the origin of the "Bottomless Abyss"!

The Abyss is like a black hole vortex, constantly devouring civilizations from multiple dimensions.

Even large, ancient Ancient Tomb Clan could only hold out for a century against the overwhelming Abyss.

After Louise left, she continued to wander the Darkness Zone before returning to the Wizard World.

In her view, perhaps only the Wizard Civilization in the entire Sauron Pan-Dimension could resist the Abyss for longer.

Moreover, she learned that the Shadow Demon Queen, who killed her father, had also come to the vicinity of Nora.

Just then, the Wizard Civilization lifted its restrictions on other races and recruited virtuous and capable individuals to fight against the Abyss.

With her level eight strength, Louise easily joined the Wizard Civilization and became a member of the war.

By earning battle merits, one can exchange them for resources and treasures in the Wizard World, thus advancing one's cultivation and striving to reach level nine as soon as possible to gain a foothold.

At that time, she can find the wandering Ancient Tomb Clan and bring them back to a New Continent to settle them, making them a subordinate civilization of the Wizard Civilization. Although they will lose some freedom, they will also be able to gain the protection of this giant ship in this chaotic era.

Over the years, she secretly contacted a pure-blooded Dragonkind who had once pulled her father's cart. He was a level nine powerhouse and was known as "Ninth Uncle" because he was the youngest and ninth among the nine dragons.

Ninth Uncle said that if she could establish herself in a foreign land, he would be willing to join her and act as a guardian for the organization Louise had established.

This rekindled Louise's hope.

All she wanted was to keep hunting demons and getting stronger. She hoped that one day she could personally kill the Shadow Demon Queen and avenge her father.

A few days ago, after decades of investigation, she finally found a clue about a Formless Demon.

Its name is [Ghost Face Great Lord Fies]

This Formless Demon participated in the invasion of the Ancient Tomb Clan. He had infiltrated the Ancient Tomb Clan as a spy for the Shadow Demon Queen, hastening their demise and indirectly causing the death of Louise 'Ancient Tomb Clan mother. Upon discovering this intelligence, Louise immediately led her puppet army to attack.

The Ghost-Faced Grandmaster sneered, "You remnant of the Ancient Tomb Clan, you are no match for me."

Louise's expression changed, but she remained silent.

The silver spear transformed into a long dragon, howling and flying across the battlefield, entwining and strangling with the black python formed from demonic energy.

From the moment the Ancient Tomb Clan was destroyed, she had only one goal in mind: to eradicate all demons in the world.

Even if she couldn't do it, she would still strive for it, and she would have no regrets even if she died.

Suddenly, the sea began to churn.

A shadow three kilometers long streaked across the sea and burst forth!

It was a giant fish with tentacles on its head, covered in Black Scale, and dripping with mucus.

It was none other than a level 8 early-stage Benthic Fish Demon.

Its name is Black Fish Great Lord Morris.

The Ghost-Faced Great Venerable shouted:

"Morris, come quickly and help me! Kill these remnants of the Ancient Tomb Clan!"

The fish demon transformed into a burly man with Black Scale, standing a hundred meters tall, wielding a steel fork, surrounded by black water, exuding an imposing aura.

"Heh heh, Fiss, this woman is not bad. I'll spare her life later and enjoy her before killing her."

The Benthic Fish Demon is one of the more lewd beings among demons, and is quite interested in women of various alien races.

Over the years, countless human women have been abducted and raped by the Benthic Fish Demon. Some of these women even gave birth to half-human, half-demon monstrosities. Seeing Louise's robust and beautiful figure, it drooled, its saliva flowing freely.

"There are more helpers?"

Louise's expression changed slightly. Although she had a trump card, it was meant to save her life against experts at level nine or higher. Using it here would be quite unwise.

"My father said that Sauron once said, 'Where there's life, there's hope.' Let's retreat first."

The puppet battle formation behind Louise unleashed a barrage of thousands of beams of light.

"Trying to run? Too late!"

Black Fish Grandmaster used his steel fork to deflect the attacks, and the tentacles on his face burrowed into the void, then reappeared behind Louise, reaching for her slender waist with its defined abs.

The Ghost-Faced Great Venerable even took out an object that looked like an ancient mirror and began chanting incantations.

But then a beam of dark light shot out from the mirror, sweeping Louise, who had vanished into the void, down from it.

"Hmph, with the Chaos Void Magic Mirror bestowed upon me by the Grand Commander, you still think you can escape?"

The Chaos Void Magic Mirror is an eighth-level rare treasure, crafted by a master craftsman from the Void Demon Clan.

This magic mirror possesses the ability to disrupt the void and interfere with escape techniques, and it can also be used for defense, making it extremely powerful.

Demons rarely use magical artifacts, and even fewer possess extraordinary treasures. They mostly rely on their powerful physical bodies and Spell-like Abilities abilities to fight. It's truly unexpected that the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster possesses such a powerful extraordinary treasure.

Louise looked somewhat at a loss.

She was once again entangled by the Black Fish Grandmaster, and they fought a fierce battle.

At the same time, they need to decide whether to use their trump cards or wait for allies to come to their aid.

The Ghost-Faced Great Venerable transformed into a thick black python nearly ten thousand meters long, opening its blood-red maw to devour Louise. Louise fought against two opponents and instantly fell below.

As the three powerful figures were locked in combat, a silver Lei Shan suddenly descended from the sky, enveloping the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster. The Wind Illusion Realm surrounded the area, causing the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster's expression to change.

Who is it?

The black python's tail swept across the area, shattering the void wherever it passed.

Amidst the spatial turbulence, the Black Armor Swordsman charged forward, unleashing a dazzling, rainbow-like sword aura that stretched for hundreds of miles!

The black python's tail shattered with a crash, dispersing into countless Black Qi.

Then the black python transformed into a black crow, whipping up a whirlwind as it soared into the sky.

Ten thousand black raven feathers shot forth, filled with murderous intent! "It's you! The Twilight Hall Master!"

The black crow spoke in a human voice, and said sternly.

Levi murmured to himself:

"Demon Spirit Transformation?"

Although the Formless Demon is relatively weak, it can comprehend a skill after reaching level six.

They call it "Demon Spirit Transformation".

This kind of skill is like Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations; he can imitate anything perfectly.

It is said that the Formless Demon race distinguishes its strength levels by the number of forms it can transform into.

Mastering one skill equates to Level 6;

Mastering all three equates to level seven;

Similarly, six variations constitute level eight, and mastering nine constitutes level nine.

Those who can master all eighteen transformations are the strongest among the Formless Demon.

They can transform into Sky-Swimming Black Whale, possessing immense power; into legendary Dragonkind, possessing extraordinary defense; or into giants and other legendary or even mythical creatures.

This transformation is not merely an illusion; during the transformation period, one can possess the special attributes of these powerful beings, and even Spell-like Abilities abilities. Therefore, the King of Faceless Jubilex is able to reside at the bottom of the Abyss and is considered a top-tier being among the tenth level.

Levi activated the Peng Serpent Way, sometimes soaring through the heavens like an eagle, sometimes darting about like a snake, weaving through the black feathers.

The Nine-Colored Emperor emerged from behind, chanting incantations. Seven blue suns simultaneously appeared around the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster, exploding in a spectacular display! The earth-shattering explosion engulfed the Black Crow.

But then, a giant beast resembling a pangolin emerged from the Sea of Fire.

Its shell was pitch black, and much of it was blown off, leaving it a bloody mess.

Louise, who was fighting the Black Fish Grandmaster on the other side, looked over.

"It's him..."

Louise knew who this person was.

It was the same thief who stole his own puppet from the ancient tomb years ago.

Unfortunately, although she knew this, she never thought of doing anything about it.

Since her return from the ancient tomb plane, this young man has risen to become a supernova in the Wizard World at an astonishing speed, and recently even slew Eighth Level Demon. However, Louise had long forgotten about the two sixth-level puppets.

Unexpectedly, he rescued me today.

With renewed confidence, she unleashed a barrage of attacks with her spear, which resembled Silver Dragon, towards the Black Fish Grandmaster. The latter cried out in pain repeatedly, clearly indicating that he was no match for Louise in a one-on-one fight.

Although the Ghost-Faced Great Venerable was proficient in six transformations, its strength was not much greater than that of the Demon Fish Great Lord that Levi had killed in the past.

Levi successfully countered both the Black Snake and black crow forms. While its pangolin form enhanced its defense, it lost its speed. Faced with Levi's superior agility, it became a sitting duck, constantly attacked.

Its methods were all thwarted by the Nine-Colored Emperor.

In addition, the four sea spirits, transformed into sea serpents and giant sharks, constantly harassed it.

After Levi advanced to the seventh level of perfection, the strength of his spiritual weapons also increased significantly. Each one was at the mid-stage of the seventh level, and could withstand an eighth-level opponent for a long time without shattering at the slightest touch.

The Maiya Spirit also swept in from the wind and clouds, accompanied by the cries of eagles.

In addition, the shadows of the Demon Fish Great Lord and the Level 8 Flame Demon that Levi had previously killed also reappeared.

Even the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster was overwhelmed by the combined attack of seven level-seven powerhouses.

After all, although the difference between level seven and level eight is large, it is not an insurmountable barrier.

When it saw that its former colleagues had actually turned into the ghosts of the Twilight Hall Master, it was so frightened that its three souls trembled and its seven spirits wavered.

"This person can actually transform the enemies he kills into shadow creatures. No wonder he can command so many Shadow Legion. If he were to grow stronger, what would become of him?!"

The Ghost-Faced Grand Venerable knew that even with his level-eight treasure, he was no match for the Twilight Hall Master. If he were to engage in a fierce battle, he would surely die! A beam of dark light shot straight to the center of the sky, shattering the Silver Lei Shan Wind Illusion Realm one after another. The Ghost-Faced Grand Venerable used the Chaos Void Magic Mirror to shatter the void and fled alone, abandoning his teammates. In fact, he had hoped that the Demon Fish Great Lord would delay the enemy and create conditions for his own escape.

Even after disappearing into the void, before he could even catch his breath, the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster's expression changed. He saw that the Twilight Hall Master's legs were like steel nails, firmly embedded in his own body. His longsword swung, cutting through flesh like a meat grinder.

"Madman!"

The Ghost-Faced Grandmaster transformed into a black python once more, rampaging through the void. The void is a dangerous place, containing things even Primal Soul Wizard cannot comprehend, such as [Void Vortexes] and [Void Creatures]. Therefore, people use the void to escape, but rarely engage in combat within it.

In the blink of an eye, the Ghost-Faced Great Venerable had brought Levi to a place tens of thousands of miles away.

Unable to sustain its space travel for a short time, it was forced to land on a stretch of sea, where it reverted to its original form as the Formless Demon.

The seawater churned, and two enormous, sky-covering water hands emerged from below, embracing the Formless Demon and dragging it into the deep sea.

Beneath the sea, Lope is invincible! It was already at the peak of level seven, and now it has the advantage of both timing and location.

With a full-force strike, the Ghost-Faced Great Venerable's body cracked, and demonic blood flowed out.

In the state of Limitless Way, Levi's back flesh lengthened, his ribs turned outward, transforming into eight flesh chains that pierced into the body of the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster, wreaking havoc. His hands even transformed into chainsaw swords, spinning and flying! The Ghost-Faced Grandmaster's face was blank.

Is this even human? This is a demon!

It transformed into a giant whale, smashed past Lope, and its massive, sky-covering fins lashed out!

Boom! Just like swatting a fly, Levi, who was wreaking havoc, was flattened.

"Hahaha, you're going to die!"

The Ghost-Faced Great Lord laughed loudly and continued to strike. But in an instant, the pool of flesh and blood flowed together and transformed back into the appearance of Levi.

At the same time, the Nine-Colored Emperor raised his greatsword and slashed off the whale's fin.

A ferocious Thunder Beast exploded underwater, Black Annihilation Divine Thunder, like a maggot clinging to bones, burrowed into the body of the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster. The negative toxins, such as crimson decay, also invaded the wound and began to spread.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster was filled with despair.

"How could this be? He can't be killed?"

The Ghost-Faced Grandmaster prepared to use the same trick again to escape with the Chaos Void Magic Mirror.

The Nine-Colored Emperor was chanting incantations, and the new spell had been cast.

Origin Soul Spell - Absolute Zero!

With a flick of his finger, the Emperor unleashed a blue ray that pierced into the body of the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster, disappearing without a trace.

The Ghost-Faced Grandmaster sneered inwardly.

"This kind of magic doesn't even qualify as a tickle..."

Before it could finish laughing, it was horrified to find itself unable to move. Its blood, its heart, its brain—all stopped at that moment. Even the surrounding seawater seemed to slow down, frozen in mid-air.

Levi was overjoyed. He hadn't expected that Absolute Zero would successfully cast a spell on an eighth-level expert in its very first real combat.

It seems he's having good luck today. It wasn't for nothing that he activated [Absolute Luck] and cast the [Coin of Transferring Luck] spell before making his move. So this is how you use luck!

Although it was only frozen for a moment, it once again hindered the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster's escape.

Taking this opportunity, Levi activated his full power boost and, together with the Nine-Colored Emperor, slashed their greatswords at the neck of the Ghost-Faced Grandmaster! Boom! Boom! Two terrifying sword energies in succession severed the demon's head.

To prevent it from dying, the Emperor conjured wave after Fire Dragon Tribulation in his palm, casting spells on the severed head! Boom! A deafening explosion blasted the Formless Demon's body into pieces from the inside out.

A terrified demonic soul tried to escape the void, but was caught by the Emperor's large hand. Nine-colored light enveloped the demonic soul, and flames and Thunder burned it almost to ashes. After ensuring that the demonic soul could not cause any harm, Levi opened the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm, Leon used a spider web to trap it and injected venom.

"Die here."

Before long, the demonic soul vanished into nothingness.

The Shadow Legion appeared, heading in all directions to collect the shattered pieces of flesh, including the Formless Demon Crystal Core, the heart, and the brain. These were all important Potion Making ingredients, which might be useful in the future.

Levi held an ancient mirror in his hands, his face beaming with joy.

"A treasure with a chaotic space is extremely rare. I've made a profit."

He had personally witnessed the Formless Demon simply use a mirror to make the female alien fall out of the void. With this extraordinary treasure, he would be much more at ease when facing eighth-level experts in the future.

On the other side.

When the Black Fish Venerable saw that Levi Wei had returned safely, he knew that the Ghost Face Venerable was most likely in grave danger.

With a flick of its tail, it spat out black ink that covered an area of hundreds of miles, disrupting perception, and then disappeared from Louise's sight like a squid.

Louise looked anxious and quickly said, "Don't go!"

She flung her spear and flew into the void!

Although Levi possesses the Chaos Void Magic Mirror, he has not yet figured out how to use it.

He tried to attack it, but the demon had already escaped.

Louise sheathed her spear, somewhat discouraged.

As the daughter of a former emperor, when had she ever been so destitute as she is today?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but stomp her foot slightly.

Upon noticing that there were other people behind her, her face flushed slightly, and then she sighed to herself.

"What a pity, it got away. But thank you for your help in getting me out of trouble."

Levi laughed:

"You're welcome. I see you're also wearing the council uniform. We're both Nora's compatriots, so we should help each other."

That Formless Demon just gave Levi over 70 million points.

That's equivalent to him working full-time as a demon hunter for two or three years, which is incredibly lucrative.

If I could kill another ten or so demons like this, I could directly exchange them for the [Shadow Emblem].

In fact, if Levi wanted to exchange for a random Sun Flare Oddity worth 500 million, there was a prerequisite: he had to kill ten level Eighth Level Demon or one level nine demon. As for artifacts like the Shadow Emblem, there were no such prerequisites; sufficient battle merits were enough.

Louise thought for a moment and asked, "I wonder if the Twilight Hall Master still recognizes me?"

Levi said:

"I don't recall ever seeing you before."

Louise then took out a puppet and smiled, "Do you recognize this?"

Levi looked as if he had just realized something.

"I did indeed find such a puppet in an ancient ruin in a New Continent before. It turned out to be yours. I didn't know it at the time, so I hope you won't take offense. If there is any compensation required, I will have no complaints."

Louise sighed and said, "No need for that. I'm currently in charge of guarding a New Continent. Why don't you come and sit with me for a while?"

She thought to herself, "This Twilight Hall Master is quite a talent; he will surely become a great figure in the Wizard World in the future."

If I can get along well with him, it will definitely be of great benefit to achieving my future plans.

Moreover, she had heard that the Ancient Dragon Continent, where the Twilight Hall Master resided, was a society where education was universal and regardless of race, anyone who worked for him could settle down, build a home, and gain respect, which she had long admired. However, she was, after all, an eighth-level expert, and it would certainly be inappropriate for her to lower herself to beg him.

But now it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

That's why she used the puppet to start a conversation between the two of them.

This also made the Twilight Hall Master realize that she was a magnanimous woman.

Levi was also interested in getting to know the woman, so he readily agreed.

On the way, Louise asked:

"Lord Levi, is that Formless Demon dead?"

Levi said:

"I killed him."

Upon hearing this, Louise remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she was quite surprised.

"Although this Formless Demon is not good at direct combat, it is proficient in the ability of Demon Spirit Transformation. It would be extremely difficult for me to kill this demon, but I did not expect it to be killed so quickly by a seventh-ring perfect wizard... It seems that he is indeed as rumored, a reincarnation of Legendary Wizard, and cannot be measured by ordinary standards."

She made up her mind to take this opportunity to get to know the Twilight Hall Master.

Although this may seem somewhat pragmatic, it's worth it for the sake of the Ancient Tomb Clan.

The Mist Continent.

The place where Louise and rested in peace.

After joining the Wizard Council, Louise was assigned to oversee the area, responsible for ensuring the smooth progress of the land reclamation work and hunting down demons in the surrounding area.

"Lord Levi Wei, this is our Ancient Tomb Clan's Mind-Clearing Tea. It should be very helpful for your wizards' meditation. I usually only take a sip before breaking through."

Louise adapted to the local customs, transforming into human size. She changed out of her heavy Black Scale armor and into a cool, breathable pale yellow gauze dress, her long, straight black hair cascading over her shoulders, giving her a more feminine look.

Levi took the Mind-Clearing Tea, took a light sniff, and immediately felt refreshed and invigorated, as if his five senses had been opened.

It's like taking Meditation Aid Potion.

"Good tea."

He took a sip and praised it.

Louise smiled and said, "You trust me quite a bit, and aren't afraid that I'll harm you."

Levi smiled slightly, "Ms. Louise, I have always assumed the best interests of others..."

Firstly, there is no sense of danger.

Secondly, given his constitution, even if the tea were an eighth-level poison, it wouldn't kill him.

Seeing Louise's melancholy expression, Levi asked:

"I remember the Ancient Tomb Clan is also a large-scale plane. Why did the lady turn to the wizard?"

When asked about her sad experiences, Louise said:

"Our Ancient Tomb Clan has been wiped out, flattened by the Abyss hundred years."

She did not mention her royal status, fearing it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Levi said, "I'm sorry, I've been busy in seclusion these past few years and I was unaware of this matter."

He felt the terror of the Blood War up close. A large civilization guarded by a level ten expert was destroyed in a single moment within a century.

If Levi remembers correctly, the Nine Dragons Emperor Saint Keys is a level 10 powerhouse who Pan-dimensional world.

Louise, her face etched with grief, recounted the tragic experiences of the Ancient Tomb Clan to Levi. Before they knew it, they had been talking until the Starry Night.

Before Levi left, Louise said, "Lord Levi, would you like that Mind-Clearing Tea again?"

Levi laughed:

"No reward without merit. This precious item is for the lady to keep and enjoy."
