As Long as One Thought Burns, the Flame of Life Never Dies! I Think, Therefore I Am?

Sauron Continent.

A secluded mansion.

Did Louise bring it?

"I brought it."

"Lock him up."

The Golden Walker opened his eyes, and a bolt of lightning exploded in the void, radiating golden light.

"The Twilight Hall Master is quite sensible; he knows not to meddle in things he dares not interfere with."

He already knew the ins and outs of the matter, and he also knew about the capture team's encounter with the Twilight Hall Master, which made him feel somewhat regretful.

If Levi were to interfere, he could seize the opportunity to make a big fuss and drag Levi into the mess as well.

Even if we can't completely eliminate him, we can at least teach him a lesson.

They shouldn't get too cocky just because they acquired a top-tier organization.

Of course, this is the best way to go.

He has already regarded the Ancient Tomb Clan as his own opportunity and will not allow others to interfere.

Interrogation room.

Louise gazed at the blond wizard's figure, and now, surprisingly, she felt calm.

For some reason, she, who originally wanted to give up and do nothing, chose to turn herself in after meeting the Twilight Hall Master.

The Golden Walker sighed, slammed a stack of documents on the table, and said in a tone of disappointment, "Louise, when did you betray Nora? You've lived here for so long, you should know that colluding with demons is a serious crime."

Louise said:

"I have no evidence of collusion with the devil. I want to see it."

The Golden Walker said:

"Really not?"

Louise said:

"Yes."

Just as the Golden Walker was about to proceed with his next question, another figure opened the door and walked in. It was a young male wizard dressed in a blue robe, none other than the Vast Sea Traveler, the prized disciple of the Legendary Wizard [Sea Remnant].

"Florio, you may leave now. I will interrogate this man myself."

The Golden Walker asked, "Chief, aren't you in seclusion? You don't need to trouble yourself with this; I can handle it."

The Vast Sea Traveler said in an unquestionable tone, "It's alright, I'll do it. You go and do something else."

The Golden Walker glanced at Louise, then calmly withdrew, though his heart was filled with turmoil.

He didn't understand why the Vast Sea Traveler would suddenly personally investigate this matter.

Could it be that he also knows Louise's secret and wants to seize the opportunities of the Ancient Tomb Clan? If so, then this is troublesome.

The next day.

The Vast Sea Traveler left the interrogation room and summoned the Golden Walker.

"The person is fine, but the materials are problematic. Have you verified the authenticity of these materials one by one? There is one instance of fabrication and falsification."

The Golden Walker's expression turned cold as he looked at the materials.

"What? There's a problem with the materials? Colluding with demons is a serious matter. It happened so suddenly that I only did a quick interrogation before sending people to arrest her. That was my oversight, after all, there are too many things to coordinate. I'll be more careful in the future, and I'll also thoroughly investigate the people below me... I knew it, I was the one who assigned her to guard the New Continent, and I trusted her implicitly. It's good that there's nothing wrong, it was just a false alarm."

The Vast Sea Traveler said nothing and calmly left the place.

Several days later.

The Golden Walker immediately began to reform the Foreign Race Affairs Administration.

They actually found several staff members who conspired with the evildoers, and immediately brought them to Bring to Justice and dealt with them seriously.

"Louise, you're alright now. Be careful in the future."

The Golden Walker stood with his hands behind his back.

He didn't understand why the Vast Sea Traveler had suddenly decided to investigate this matter. Louise, being of a different race, shouldn't have the power to persuade such an important figure. But regardless, he had no reason to leave Louise here any longer.

As for Princess Louise's identity, he was only bluffing her and didn't intend to use it for anything. If other Great Wizard found out, the Ancient Tomb Clan's opportunity might vanish.

Louise asked, "Could my people be released?"

The Golden Walker said:

"Don't worry, I've released them and found them jobs. From now on, they can have the same rights as us."

"Where?"

"They joined the Nora Allied Forces, were organized into separate regiments, and were sent to the Darkness Zone of northern Nora to carry out the arduous task of cleaning the Abyssal Well."

Upon hearing this, Louise trembled, her eyes turned red, and a murderous intent filled her.

The task of cleaning the Abyssal Well is basically a death mission with a slim chance of survival, and it is usually assigned to certain heinous criminals.

This Golden Walker wants that ancient Ancient Tomb Clan dead.

"The Golden Walker said coldly."

Did you intend to kill me just now?

Louise said:

"No, thank you."

The Golden Walker waved his hand and said, "Go back."

He watched Louise leave, lost in thought.

"Was it the Twilight Hall Master who used his connections to allow the Vast Sea Traveler to leave seclusion?"

Louise had previously visited the Twilight Hall Master on the Ancient Dragon Continent, and it was the Twilight Hall Master who saved her when she was about to be killed by a demon.

There's no way someone could just happen to be passing by; they must have come specifically to save the day.

"Could it be that Louise is planning to curry favor with the Ancient Dragon Continent?"

The Golden Walker pondered the pros and cons, considering what to do next.

Ancient Dragon Continent.

Emperor Palace.

Upon hearing that Louise had been released, Levi breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she was indeed alright; it was all a setup by the Golden Walker.

For a Great Wizard, dealing with a foreign race is a piece of cake.

However, that group of the Ancient Tomb Clan refugees was assigned to a demon-slaying mission in the Darkness Zone.

This is somewhat different from what Levi thought, and it's highly likely that the Golden Walker also did something to it.

To be honest, if it weren't for wanting to find out the whereabouts of those Dragonkind through Louise, Levi Wei wouldn't have wanted to get involved in this matter at all.

This day.

He secretly met with Louise somewhere.

"I never expected that the lady would be the daughter of the Nine Dragons Emperor."

Louise laughed self-deprecatingly, "I'm just a stray dog, only able to watch my people die helplessly. In any case, thank you for saving me. I have no way to repay you for now, but once I contact the higher-ups in my tribe, I will definitely send you a generous gift."

Levi said, "It is indeed difficult for you alien races to survive in the Wizard World. Although the Ancient Dragon Continent has sheltered many alien races, most of them are either originally from Nora or small races without any foundation or background, and have no real power."

The Ancient Tomb Clan was once a large civilization. Even though it has been destroyed, as a princess, you must have some opportunities and treasures from the ancient tombs. There are many who want to get their hands on them.

I'm not interested in anything else. You may have heard that the Ancient Dragon Continent likes to collect Dragonkind. I ask you, Dragonkind your father used to pull his cart still alive?

He got straight to the point: if it worked, he would find a way to protect Louise and the Ancient Tomb Clan; if not, he wouldn't be ruthless.

Louise's eyes flickered, and then she said, "Some are dead, some are still alive, and I keep in touch with some of them."

I heard a definite answer.

Levi stared at Louise and said:

"If you trust me, I'll give you a chance to sign a contract with me. After that, I will do everything in my power to protect you and the Ancient Tomb Clan."

All I need is for you to contact those Dragonkind at the right time. Don't worry, I won't harm them.

Although I practice the way of Knight, most of the creatures I've killed along the way are Demon Dragon or black beast Dragonkind.

Louise's eyes shifted, her expression hesitant, as she struggled with an intense internal conflict.

Levi turned and left.

You don't need to reply to me now.

"I do!"

Ancient Dragon Continent.

After swearing an oath under the Oath Sword, Louise arrived at the Emperor Palace.

Levi said, "Next, you will resign from your position in the New Continent and join the Ancient Dragon Continent. Here, no one will dare to lay a hand on you."

Louise said:

"OK."

Levi closed his eyes and pondered.

In doing so, he was essentially openly going against the Golden Walker, who was a Great Wizard.

Although he had just been promoted, his strength still far surpassed that of an ordinary eighth-ring cultivator.

Of course, since he dared to do this, he must have been confident in his abilities.

Firstly, his strength is rapidly increasing, and the Ninth Ring is not out of reach for him. Secondly, he has powerful backers.

It's that simple.

Regardless of who is behind the Golden Walker, he has the Black Abyss Overlord behind him, giving him a trump card. No matter how strong the opponent's cards are, they'll only have the same cards to play.

Most importantly, the investigation revealed that Louise herself was completely innocent. The Golden Walker had framed her in secret. Levi's decision to take Louise in was perfectly reasonable and legal.

Louise suddenly said:

"You asked me before if I had any Mind-Clearing Tea roots. Actually, I did, but I gave them away." After saying that, she looked at her palm.

Levi understood immediately.

"So it was the Golden Walker who took the roots of the Mind-Clearing Tea. That old man certainly knows how to enjoy life."

In the days that followed, Louise recounted the situation of the Ancient Tomb Clan, especially the nine dragons, to Levi.

After becoming emperor, the Nine Dragons Emperor spent ten thousand years sending his Four Seas and Eight Desolations to traverse the Pan-dimensional world and find nine pure-blooded Dragonkind.

Several of them were rescued from the clutches of the Dragon Spawn Venerable.

Therefore, the Dragon Spawn Venerable and the Nine Dragons Emperor have a deep-seated grudge.

After the emperor fell, he did not make the pure-blooded Dragonkind perish with him, but instead gave them freedom to escape on their own.

However, during this process, three were captured by the Shadow Demon Queen and her minions.

It is highly likely that it is undergoing transformation in the Abyss and will inevitably become Demon Dragon, serving the Abyss.

One of the main reasons the Abyss is so powerful is its ability to corrupt other living beings.

There are three more whose fate is unknown, and there is currently no news of them.

Currently, it is confirmed that the sixth, Lao Ba, and ninth members of the Kowloon are still alive. Louise, considering herself a junior, refers to these Dragonkind as her sixth uncle, eighth uncle, and Ninth Uncle.

The sixth one is [Frost Sky Dragon Gloucester], a legendary Dragonkind of the Frost element, currently 30,000 years old.

The Lao Ba is [Ancient Mountain Dragon Gangreit], a legendary Dragonkind of the Earth system, currently 27,000 years old.

The youngest, the ninth, is only 20,000 years old. He is the [Molten Gold Dragon Aiourees], a legendary Dragonkind of the metal faction.

The female bronze-armored dragon in Li Weilong's palace possesses the bloodline of the molten gold dragon. Of course, it shouldn't be the ninth son's.

The sixth and Lao Ba are currently either wandering within the Pan-dimensional world or asleep.

The most active person, and the Louise was closest to, was Ninth Brother, also known as her "Ninth Uncle".

Levi already had some ideas about these Dragonkind, but his current strength wasn't enough to accept them. Even if the Molten Gold Dragon agreed to join, the Ancient Dragon Continent was too small a place to keep it.

"Louise has joined the Ancient Dragon Continent?"

The Golden Walker's eyes darkened as he listened to his secretary's report.

He had already suspected that the sudden emergence of the Vast Sea Traveler from seclusion was related to the Twilight Hall Master.

But for now, he can only suffer in silence. Some things may not seem heavy until they are weighed, but once they are on the scale, they can weigh a ton.

He had risen to this position step by step, and he had countless messes on his hands that he dared not reveal, not to mention that he had indeed framed Louise.

He sensed that the Vast Sea Traveler had noticed something in his eyes.

However, since he was Great Wizard and they saw each other all the time, the Vast Sea Traveler didn't say anything.

The Vast Sea Traveler probably guessed that he was trying to gain something by making things difficult for Louise, which wasn't anything new.

The Great Wizard is not some desireless deity, nor can he cultivate himself simply by eating dew and drinking nectar.

On the contrary, many Great Wizard are busy with cultivation retreats or other important matters, and rarely have the opportunity to collect various cultivation resources.

If they have their own supported organization, that's fine; they have servants to support them. But if they don't, won't they have to find ways to skim off others? This kind of thing is very difficult to eradicate. Even Sauron couldn't cure it while he was alive.

That's human nature.

As long as the general direction is correct, no one will bother with the minor details.

The Golden Walker brewed a cup of Mind-Clearing Tea, took a small sip, and closed his eyes.

"I've always been careful in my actions, only occasionally accepting small, insignificant benefits, and I've always done things that are on the fringes of legality. Could it be that I went a little too far this time?"

After thinking it over and over...

The Golden Walker hesitated. It wasn't that he was afraid of the Twilight Hall Master; no matter how strong that person was, he could never be his match.

He was just worried that the Twilight Hall Master was doing this on the orders of a powerful figure behind the scenes.

Although he coveted the opportunities of the Ancient Tomb Clan, he would give up as soon as possible if it might threaten himself and his family.

It is important to take your spiritual practice to the next level.

But he was already Great Wizard with a lifespan of six thousand years, Legendary Realm above all others. Preserving his current life and status was more important, otherwise all his previous efforts might be in vain.

A huge stone coffin landed not far from the Summer Flower Tower.

The houses of the Ancient Tomb Clan are coffins; from birth to burial, there is only one path, saving real estate developers from making a profit.

Louise is an eighth-level expert. As the daughter of the Nine Dragons Emperor, she has the potential to reach the ninth level in the future.

She was quite capable, so Levi arranged for her to live near Hundred Flowers. This would provide some protection against demon attacks.

She took the initiative to visit the hostess, smiling slightly nervously:

"Seeing is believing, Ms. Elena is truly beautiful."

Elena smiled slightly.

"Once you join the Ancient Dragon Continent, you're part of the family. Feel free to contact me with any questions. You can patrol the area around the Ancient Dragon Continent and take on some guard duties, but don't go too far away."

Louise said:

"I see."

Previously, the Golden Walker had harbored the idea of subduing her, but now that she has completely submitted to the Ancient Dragon Continent, it is not impossible for the Golden Walker to become desperate and personally capture her. At that time, whether it is through severe torture or special soul-searching methods, she will be unable to resist.

I'll say it again.

She is not a witch, and has no powerful connections.

In the Wizard World, which of those who have reached the eighth ring doesn't have their own powerful backers?

Regardless of whether they claim to be members of top organizations or independent cultivators, they all have the shadow of Great Wizard behind them to some extent.

Unless there are special circumstances, she will not leave the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Over the past few hundred years, she has hunted countless demons and is now among the top 200 on the Ninth Level Demon Slaying Ranking. Her battle achievements are already sufficient, and she can go a long time without hunting demons without any problems.

This is also why the Golden Walker is hesitant; the sudden loss of a demon-hunting general will certainly be investigated by the Wizard Council, even if it involves a different race. It's just that the Golden Walker's level of concern is not as high as that of wizards of the same realm.

Louise cherished this opportunity to join the Ancient Dragon Continent; it was her last lifeline.

Having observed for so long, she had long understood that the Twilight Hall Master was no ordinary person; even a top-tier organization with a long and distinguished history like the House of Witches wanted to join him.

Following him is definitely better than fighting alone in the Wizard World.

Therefore, she must make a good impression on the Twilight Hall Master; she must be useful!

She took the initiative to visit the high-ranking officials of the Twilight Temple, the Dawn Tower, the Giant Beast Paradise, and the House of Witches.

Although these high-ranking individuals were not as skilled as her, she still displayed a very humble attitude and was exceptionally kind.

Not long after, she volunteered to become the combat skills instructor for the new Knight of the Twilight Temple.

Those Knight were all complete novices who hadn't even reached level one yet.

Although she was an eighth-level expert, she did not practice the Way of the Knight, so teaching combat skills was a great waste of her talents.

Levi then asked her to teach higher-level Knight groups, and in her spare time, she could also give pointers to sixth-level Knight such as the Twilight Eighteen Knights.

By the time Knight reaches level six, they have generally developed their own combat skills and do not need special instruction; they only need to practice and refine their skills through sparring.

In this way...

Levi, Wind Witch Wendy, Louise, plus the Guardian Thunder Crocodile, Brother Octopus, and Black Feather Pheasant.

There are six level-eight powerhouses that are usually on the public eye on the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Not to mention top organizations that have fallen from grace, even some that are still in good health don't have such a luxurious lineup.

Six months later, the Ancient Tomb Clan warband that had been assigned a doomed mission by the Golden Walker was successfully brought back through Levi's efforts.

They settled in the Ancient Dragon Continent and formed the [Ancient Tomb Battle Group], led by Louise, responsible for the security patrols of the Ancient Dragon Continent.

He sensed an underlying hostility, the source of which was self-evident.

Five years later.

Nora Calendar year 760.

Blood War 549 years.

The House of Witches.

The Wind Witch is testing Lisa's lessons; the little girl has blossomed into a mature and elegant woman.

Her temperament is similar to Wendy's; she appears gentle and intelligent. In her forties, she is already a senior Second Ring wizard, and has begun preparations for her advancement to the Third Ring. Among the geniuses she mentored in the same cohort, she is far ahead, leaving everyone else in the dust.

Suddenly, Wendy's face lit up with joy. Within a Wizard Tower, elemental power surged forth, and water vapor gathered into dark clouds from all directions.

"Snow Lotus is finally about to reach the seventh ring."

One after another, beautiful Witch with captivating charm and distinctive features flew out to witness the birth of the seventh-ring wizard, Triss also looked out from the laboratory.

The Snow Lotus Witch exhaled deeply, radiating the aura of a seventh-ring wizard. Behind her, her image, resembling a giant Snow Lotus, stood gracefully, pure and beautiful.

The Wind Witch laughed:

"We're on the seventh ring road now, almost catching up with your mother. It's a pity your father won't be able to see it. Alas, he left too soon."

The Snow Lotus Witch's father was an Eighth Ring Wizard and the leader of a High-Rank Wizard organization. He perished in Blood War a few years ago.

So Wendy and Triss have a good relationship, since they are both Origin Soul witches who raise children alone.

Moreover, both Ai Niya and the Snow Lotus Witch are excellent and successfully possessed the Origin Soul.

The Snow Lotus Witch embraced her mother, and for a moment, she was overcome with emotion.

Wendy laughed:

"Snow Lotus has broken through, this is a cause for celebration! Let's have a small team-building event at the House of Witches."

The Cat Witch, who had watched the Snow Lotus Witch grow up, also said, "Yes, you are now a seventh-circle wizard with a lifespan of three thousand years. You still have nearly two thousand years left to live. You don't need to rush. It's time to find a partner."

When the Snow Lotus Witch reached the Sixth Ring, Wendy and her late husband started pressuring her to get married. After all, Snow Lotus was her most outstanding descendant.

At the time, they also asked a matchmaker to arrange a marriage between them and geniuses from top organizations such as Hurricane Tower and Seven Waters Tower.

However, the Snow Lotus Witch had her own ideas. She was now Primal Soul Wizard and could make her own decisions. Although the couple was anxious, there was nothing they could do.

"Serena, you dare to call someone a junior? You're almost two thousand years old, what are you trying to do by still being single?"

Triss appeared, looked at her former friend, and couldn't help but say something.

The Cat Witch said:

"I'm not in a hurry. Aren't you single too?"

Triss laughed and scolded.

"I have Ai Niya to carry on my family line, what do you have? You've been playing this game for almost two thousand years, you can't go on like this. There are so many excellent male Knight on the Ancient Dragon Continent."

The Cat Witch was somewhat tempted by this suggestion, and she jokingly asked, "I've taken a liking to the Fire Dragon Knight, will you go and say hello to him for me?"

Triss thought this was indeed difficult, but she still said:

"I can put in a good word for you, but whether it works out depends on your own abilities."

The Cat Witch quickly said, "No, I was just kidding. How could a supernova possibly be interested in me?"

Males from the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Aside from the already taken Twilight Hall Master, the most outstanding individuals are undoubtedly the high-ranking members of the organization.

Among them, the Fire Dragon Knight, bursting with male hormones, would undoubtedly be the most sought-after. But he was so dazzling that even the Cat Witch, a seventh-ring wizard, had no interest in him whatsoever.

Seeing everyone suddenly discussing marriage, the Snow Lotus Witch fell silent.

She thought of her deceased father, and this time she did not choose to refuse.

Perhaps it's time for me to find a partner to spend the rest of my life with.

Afterwards, they can support each other and reach a higher level, which is also excellent, as seen in the Extremity Knight and Hundred Flower Knight.

Emperor Palace.

Upon hearing that the Snow Lotus Witch had made a breakthrough, Levi and Hundred Flowers also showed joy.

"We've found another reason for a social gathering; this time we must match them up."

"That's right... By the way, what do you think of the Blood Knight? Would he be a good match for the Snow Lotus Witch? I don't know much about Snow Lotus, but I think she should be a good person."

"It's good. Both of them are very kind-hearted. If they were together, although it might be a bit boring and dull, they should be able to treat each other with respect."

"How is the Leopard Witch? I heard her partner also perished in the Blood War, so she's currently single."

"This isn't a good idea."

Because of the Blood War battle, the House of Witches is about to become a widow's house.

Of the three Primal Soul Wizard that Levi knew of, there were Triss, Wendy, Leopard Witch Neeko.

That night.

At a small social gathering within the Ancient Dragon Continent, Levi and Elena, like parents, watched the young talents getting to know each other, and were in a good mood.

Over at the Dawn Tower.

Solett's apprentices, including Thunder Blade Si Ta, who has already reached the Sixth Ring of senior cultivation, Heart Moon Spirit Witch Natasha, Sakura Witch, all the Origin Soul born from the organization came when they had time.

Twilight Temple.

Temple Knight or the Eighteen Riders were temporarily without missions all arrived.

After all, it was the Palace Master who personally summoned them, so how could they dare not give them face? Besides, everyone is too tired from fighting and cultivating every day, and they really need to relax.

The Blood Knight and the Fire Dragon Knight immediately exchanged their experiences after advancing to level seven upon meeting.

They often sparred in the Nightmare World. The battle between the Jade Qilin and the Sun Chasing Dragon was extremely exciting. If they didn't use the giant's methods, the Blood Knight and the Fire Dragon Knight were not much different in strength.

Giant Beast Paradise, and even the Lizardmen of the Ancient Dragon Empire came to join the fun.

On the other side, everyone is treated equally; anyone who is free and wants to come is welcome. The White Wolf Girl, who loves excitement, also came.

Louise sat alone to one side, gazing at the campfire, perhaps homesick. Elena, worried she was lonely, went over to chat, gently asking, "How have you been lately?"

"Very good, thank you for your concern, madam. Everyone has been very kind to me."

The girls from the House of Witches also arrived, half-hidden and half-revealed, some excited and some shy.

Wendy, accompanied by the Snow Lotus Witch, took the initiative to greet the Knight present.

Although she was Eighth Ring Wizard, she had no airs whatsoever. In recent years, Knight have produced talents like the Twilight Hall Master and the Fire Dragon Knight, making it a popular profession.

She would be overjoyed if her daughter could marry one of the Eighteen Riders.

Everyone knows that the Eighteen Riders are veterans who have worked their way up with the Twilight Hall Master through thick and thin. Regardless of their cultivation level, their status in the Ancient Dragon Continent is certainly not low.

Moreover, those who were chosen by the Twilight Hall Master to be selected as Eighteen Riders were all extraordinary individuals.

Seeing everyone speaking freely and chatting enthusiastically, Levi felt very gratified.

He hoped that tonight's get-together would be an opportunity to facilitate more such gatherings in the future, producing more talented individuals for the Ancient Dragon Continent, ideally second or third children.

He won't interfere too much with other matters; people are free to date.

After the banquet, he noticed that the Fire Dragon Knight seemed interested in Louise, and when he chatted with her, the corners of his mouth would always unconsciously turn up.

"Hmm... the Ancient Tomb Clan? That's fine. Louise is the daughter of an emperor, with a bright future ahead. The mixed-race offspring born from such a powerful union should be quite remarkable. Perhaps she can even inherit the throne of the Ancient Tomb Clan in the future."

The next day.

Everyone returned to their posts and exchanged contact information. It was a successful get-together, and Levi resolved to hold one every year when he had some free time.

Relationships are cultivated; how can you find a partner if you're always cooped up at home?

One year later.

The 550th year of the Blood War.

The limit of the Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique.

Levi had already prepared the level 8 Bloodline Essence, with the main materials coming from the Black Phoenix and the level 8 fire dragon Bloodline Essence he exchanged in the Bloody Battle Shop.

The Undying Armor had already been reforged using level eight Elemental Metal. With everything in place, Levi immediately began his seclusion.

With the advancement of the Death Ember Dragon, his physique and survival ability will inevitably undergo a qualitative leap, and its importance is self-evident.

Time flies.

Two years later, with the disappearance of an innocent island, Levi easily weathered the calamity of the Death Ember Dragon.

Needless to say, the Darkness Tribulation of Bloodline was a sudden level nine Wind Calamity, Levi had never encountered before.

This is the highest level of Wind Calamity, and it poses some danger even to Eighth Ring Wizard.

The most critical thing is...

Hidden within the Wind Calamity was a [Wind Demon], the most famous wind-type demon in the Abyss. Like the Flame Demon, its race has produced many powerful beings. There are quite a few at level ten, the strongest being the [Wind Demon Lord], the Commander-in-Chief of the Blood War.

Of course, in the end, they still managed to get through it without any major incidents. The demon was killed by Levi, who also conveniently delivered tens of millions of battle merits to his doorstep.

Levi couldn't tell whether these demons truly wanted to assassinate him, or were influenced by the Darkness Tribulation.

If this continues, will they just send a level nine demon to carry out a suicide attack? Emperor Palace.

Levi opened the Proficiency Panel.

Levi ————————

Death Ember Dragon Breathing Technique: Tier 20 (1/20,000,000), Special Effects: Death Ember Dragon Body - Mythical Grade (Early Stage 8), Bloodline Avatar: Nirvana Dragon; Blood Source True Armor: Death Ember Dragon Armor; Exclusive Weapon: Armor of Immortality (Tier 8); Bloodline Divine Runes: 22/66. Bloodline Secret Word: Undying (As long as the thought dies, the Life Fire Undying).

The Death Ember Dragon's advancement to level eight is, overall, less significant than the evolution of the Scarlet Dragon into the Extremely Dark Dragon; its other abilities are merely improvements on its original foundation.

The [Undying Body] has become advanced, the [Second Nirvana] has become the [Nirvana Three Rebirths], and the diameter of the [Undying Divine Domain] has reached 80 kilometers, which is the standard of a mythical Breathing Technique. The rest is self-evident.

The abilities of the Ash Lord and the Underworld Lord have also been improved, but not qualitatively, and are not very useful to Levi at the moment.

Most importantly, of course, is the Bloodline Secret Word.

The "Undying Secret Word" is composed of the "Secret Word of the Body" and the "Flame True Word".

As long as one thought remains, the Life Fire Undying!

The top of Levi's head.

An invisible fire, visible only to him, was burning.

"Is this the Life Fire?"

Life Fire, the flame of life, is a very abstract concept. The biggest change after the Death Ember Dragon reaches level eight is that Levi can see the Life Fire above his head.

As long as this Life Fire doesn't go out, he won't die. And as long as his consciousness remains, even if it's just a tiny wisp, his Life Fire won't be extinguished.

This is a state that is difficult to describe. To some extent, to use an inappropriate analogy, it is similar to: I think, therefore I am.

As long as the enemy cannot completely annihilate his entire body and soul in an instant, and erase his consciousness instantly, Levi will not die. His Life Fire remains, and he can quickly reshape his body using the power of the Death Ember Dragon.

His advanced [Undying Body] ability allows him to truly Blood Rebirth.

As a practitioner of both the ways of Knight and wizards, his consciousness is omnipresent, existing not only within the soul of his Origin Soul but also in every drop of blood and every cell.

An enemy cannot completely obliterate his consciousness in an instant unless their strength far surpasses his.

Not to mention, Levi also has a save-save method like the Death Ember Divine Palace, and now that he has advanced to level eight, he can save up to four times.

Looking at the Life Fire above his head, Levi suddenly had a realization.

"Isn't this just a health bar? [Advanced Undying Body] makes me like a data character in a game, with no so-called fatal points. Even if you stab someone in the head, I only lose a little health."

The [Undying Secret Word] is to crush all my life, consciousness, body, soul, and so on, and transform them into [Life Fire], which is similar to a health bar.

This health bar is divided into stages. If it can't kill me in multiple stages at once, then I can recover instantly and return to full health.

[Death Ember Divine Palace] is a resurrection point or save point, while [Nirvana Three Rebirths] is the last chance to escape.

If none of the three methods mentioned above work, and I really die... I can reincarnate three times with my memories intact, which is equivalent to starting over without data deletion.

With all these added layers of complexity, as long as I remain vigilant and cultivate the virtue of saving my game frequently, the real world will feel almost like a game to me.

Even Ninth Ring Wizard shouldn't be able to kill me so easily.

However, the Great Wizard's ability to annihilate matter into elemental particles should not be underestimated.

In my past life, I often made jokes.

"As long as your health bar is visible, I'll kill even a god."

In reality, the most terrifying thing is the appearance of a health bar. This means that Levi and ordinary beings are no longer in the same dimension. He is like a data stream, directly possessing quantum Undying.

However, while the [Undying Secret Word] granted him the ability to Undying, it did not grant him the means to "never age".

Even before the law of life and death, he still has a lifespan limit, which is the sword of Damocles hanging directly over the heads of all living beings.

It is a higher-dimensional truth strike, invisible and intangible, yet it affects Sentient Beings, and no one is exempt.

"However, it's best not to use the abilities of the Death Ember Dragon. I am not invincible after all. In the extraordinary world, there are countless methods beyond my imagination, and there is always someone better."

Levi put the panel on.

Now, only the Nightmare Dragon Breathing Technique has no limit yet, but it's not far off.

As of now, he has three Nightmare Dragon Clan under his control, not to mention the Infant Dragon, which is too weak.

The remaining ones are the [Golden Spear], who recently advanced to the peak of level seven, and the [Khorne Overlord], a pure-blooded Dragonkind.

To be honest, aside from those difficult-to-control Demon Dragon, even if he found a new Nightmare Lord, Levi wouldn't want to kill it.

But now, this is the only way for him to follow the path of his bloodline; it is truly a helpless situation.

"I'm about to advance to level nine. Level nine is a crucial point. My bloodline path might change here. I hope I can gradually break free from this bloodline dependence and constraint."

For now, we still need to continue searching for the Nightmare Dragon Clan.

After breaking through, Levi returned to the Emperor Palace to consolidate his realm, while Elena was busy with matters concerning the Wizard Tower.

Louise has been living in the Ancient Dragon Continent for years, and the Golden Walker hasn't caused her any trouble, which has relieved Levi.

Over the years, Elena and Louise have developed a good relationship and have become like sisters.

Whenever Elena makes progress in crafting the Wizard Tower, she will spar and fight with Louise in the Nightmare World.

She's now close to reaching the seventh ring of perfection, and with her increasingly sophisticated Wizard Tower and two companion spirits, her normal strength is such that she could easily spar with an ordinary eighth-ring wizard for over a hundred rounds.

Over at the House of Witches.

Triss is in charge of the development and research of three major potion projects: the Nightmare Sequence Seventh Ring Breakthrough Potion, the Thousand-Year Lifespan Extension Potion, and the Witch Mark Reversal Potion. She's been incredibly busy these past few years.

She later saved up the billion-plus yuan that Levi had lent out and repaid Levi.

This left Levi feeling rather helpless, as he felt he had been somewhat hands-off and felt a little guilty about it. However, he couldn't think of a good way to repay Triss.

After all, Triss isn't short of money; she can only wait for another opportunity.

Of course, he treated Ai Niya very well, especially after Ai Niya made some good research results in the Mechanical School.

He would find a reason to have someone send him some cultivation resources, or even rare items from the metal faction, to help the young man cultivate.

They've been friends for a thousand years, and she's Triss's child; he's watched Ai Niya grow up.

Ai Niya's talent was already quite good, and under the fatherly radiance of Levi, her cultivation was naturally not slow, and she had already advanced to the Sixth Ring perfect wizard.

For him, advancing to the seventh-ring wizard level and living for three thousand years shouldn't be a problem. The eighth ring, however, will depend on luck.

Overall, he's still a notch below his mother, Triss.

Triss was already quite satisfied with Ai Niya's performance. After all, he wasn't a top genius; he just had dual elemental affinity plus a special talent for metal.

These years.

Driven by the Mechanical School, the Dawn Tower developed rapidly, even faster than the Twilight Temple.

After all, the wizarding world already has a fully mature system. As long as there are enough talented people and resources, it can develop rapidly without taking detours.

The development of the Twilight Temple was accompanied by continuous exploration and trial and error.

Stella, the Tower Master's wife, recently advanced to the seventh level and is a key member of the Mechanical School. She is the female robot behind Herman.

Jialuona also advanced to the Sixth Ring senior level. Her husband, Dark Moon Knight, chose the path of evolution.

To prevent Jialuona from failing her tribulation, she left no descendants to accompany her.

In order to continue the bloodline of the Dark Moon Knight Hodgson Family, the couple had twins, a boy and a girl, last year, named Pu Lai De and Mo La Na.

Pu Lai De possesses the Dark Moon bloodline and will inevitably inherit the Hodgson Family's mantle and embark on the path of Knight.

Mo La Na possesses both Dark Moon bloodline, dual elemental affinity, and the special talent [Night Shadow Song].

This is a very good Shadow Faction talent. Not long after learning this news, Aya, who had always wanted to find a disciple to pass on her Shadow knowledge, came to her door, wanting to take Mo La Na as her disciple.

The couple were naturally happy to have Morana taken in as a student by the supernova, and when Mo La Na got a little older, they sent her to the Dawn Tower for further studies.

Of course, they also hoped that the little girl could also cultivate both knightly skills. This would inevitably be very tiring, but if she succeeded, she could achieve extraordinary accomplishments like Uncle Andrew, the Steel Dragon Knight.

The final decision rests with Mo La Na.

As a supernova, Aya has very high standards for herself.

She is not old, not even a thousand years old, but she has already reached the Sixth Ring of perfection and has a long lifespan. The competition in the Shadow School is average. As a supernova, she has accumulated a lot of battle merits and has used them to refine many Morning Star and even Full Moon Wonder.

Therefore, her standard for witch marks is a minimum of 15 marks, and she will decide whether to pursue 22 marks depending on the situation.

Others, like the Sakura Witch, have also reached the Sixth Ring senior wizards, taking another step forward on their Wizard's Path.
