Siren Breathing Technique: Fifth Order (Limit), Special Effects: Intermediate Speed, Bone Shrinking and Shape Shifting.

"So, Fifth Order, is this the limit of the Siren Breathing Technique?"

Levi felt the Black Qi emanating from the Sea Siren Seed flowing into his limbs.

He threw punches swiftly, each punch like a phantom, each punch carrying the wind.

Then came a whip kick, the air itself seemed to crackle.

"Attack speed has increased significantly compared to before. Let's test the running speed."

Levi arrived at the venue where he had previously tested himself in the 100-meter dash.

His entire body tensed, his back slightly arched, like a cheetah eyeing a gazelle, and then with a boom! The Black Qi Black Qi the Sea Siren Seed and the Frost Wolf Seed both erupted from his legs and core area! Levi became a blur.

His speed at this moment was much faster than his previous Elementary Speed.

One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds.

In just four seconds, Levi had already reached the finish line.

"The Elementary Speed is five seconds for 100 meters and the Intermediate Speed is Hundred Meters in Four Seconds. It may seem like only one second has been reduced, but it is a qualitative leap."

"The process of practicing Breathing Technique is a continuous transformation of the physical body, using Black Qi to break through the limits of the human body time and time again. Every second, or even every millisecond, of progress is crucial!"

Levi was slightly out of breath, feeling satisfied.

The fastest speed of a cheetah is about three seconds to cover 100 meters, less than three seconds.

If I can improve my speed further, I can truly rival the cheetah, the king of sprinting among land creatures in my previous life.

Three seconds to 100 meters is too fast for the average human eye to capture completely; they can only see the afterimages of the cheetah's limbs.

"And during this period of cultivation, apart from the Siren Breathing Technique, the biggest breakthrough was in the Flame Stream Seal."

Levi ————

Flame Stream Seal: First Order (300/1000)

Although he is still at the First Order, Levi's hand seals have become faster after practicing for a while, which means that his spellcasting speed is faster.

As proficiency increases, so does the compatibility with the mysterious Power of Aether of heaven and earth. With each advancement in spellcasting, the scale of the flames expands.

Levi approached a tree as thick as a bowl, standing about a meter away. Then, he struck out with his palm, unleashing a stream of flames about a meter long, like a bolt of lava shooting out! A burst of intense heat erupted—BOOM!

The next moment, half of the trunk of the tree, which was as thick as a bowl, was charred and turned black and carbonized. Levi could turn it into ashes with a single touch.

The air was filled with the smell of sulfur.

Levi blew out the white smoke in his palm.

"If the Church had discovered my attack just now, they would have thought I was a wizard. So, this is my trump card, and no one can know about it. Anyone who has seen this move of mine is a dead man."

"Although Winchester said that since the First Year of Holy Radiance, the connection between the gods and the Church has become less and less, and no miracles have appeared in the world for thousands of years, the foundation that the Church has accumulated over thousands of years is still something that a half-baked Spirit Banishment Master like me can't compare to."

"Even those powerful and mysterious wizards can only hide in the Land of the Faithless to avoid being watched by the gods. There are gods watching over us, so I have to be even more discreet and cautious."

Levi constantly reminded himself of this.

However, now that he possesses the Flame Stream Seal, his strength is indeed vastly different from what it used to be.

"I'm so itchy to fight. I wonder if I'm even capable of fighting a Great Knight now."

"No, I can't have such dangerous thoughts. I'm better off playing a one-sided game. I should continue to develop quietly until the Black Mountain Duke and the Voice of the Deathbird stop bothering me."

"I'll settle scores when I become Great Knight!"

It has been more than eight years since the year 1000 of the Holy Radiance Calendar.

He has grown from a ten-year-old child into an eighteen-year-old adult.

After reaching 1.9 meters tall, his height stopped growing very slowly. Although his physique was exaggerated, there were many Knight in the world whose strength was even more exaggerated than his.

"The Black Snake Secret Medicine is almost gone. We've only made less than a third of our progress to the Fifth Order, and now we're already worried about the Ambergris again."

Levi opened his Proficiency Panel.

Levi ——————

Black Snake Breathing Technique: Fifth Order (8123/30000), Special Effect: Intermediate Defense

Vortex Beast Breathing Technique: Second Order (1000/5000)

Giant Rhino Breathing Technique: Third Order (1011/10000)

Wild Bull Breathing Technique: Third Order (3233/10000)

Human-Faced Spider Breathing Technique: Fourth Order (12333/20000), Special Effects: Elementary Vibration Perception, Spider Sense.

Siren Breathing Technique: Fifth Order (Limit), Special Effects: Intermediate Speed, Bone Shrinking and Shape Shifting.

Giant Bear Breathing Technique: Fourth Order (Limit), Special Effect: Basic Strength; Frost Wolf Breathing Technique: Fourth Order (Limit), Special Effect: Elementary Speed (Can be fused)

"There are eight different Breathing Technique alone," Levi remarked.

Suddenly, he noticed a new option appearing in the Frost Wolf Breathing Technique's special effects section.

With a thought, he clicked on the "Can be merged" option.

[Should I merge Frost Wolf Breathing Technique into Siren Breathing Technique?][After merging, Frost Wolf Breathing Technique will disappear, and the quality of Siren Breathing Technique will be slightly improved. When the quality is improved to a certain level, Siren Breathing Technique will break its limits.][Note: Currently, fusion is limited to the fusion of skills of the same type.][Note: Fusion will consume a certain amount of mental and physical energy. Please ensure that fusion is done in a safe situation!] "Hmm? Is this possible?"

"What should I do after merging with the Seed of Life? Will the improvement I receive be significant or minor?"

Levi couldn't help but mutter to himself.

However, the Proficiency Panel only provides mechanical prompts and then offers no further information.

"Forget it, let's give it a try. Anyway, this Frost Wolf Breathing Technique is too rubbish, and the special effects overlap with those of the Sea Siren. It won't cause any problems if it's incorporated."

"Let's merge." After preparing various kinds of food and water, Levi began the fusion process inside the Sanctuary.

At the same time, Levi noticed...

The Frost Wolf Seed and Sea Siren Seed inside his heart began to move.

The Sea Siren writhed wildly with its eight twisting tentacles, like a world-destroying demon, tightly binding and enveloping the howling Frost Wolf Seed. Suction cups appeared one after another, and the Frost Wolf Seed's size continued to shrink until finally, the Frost Wolf Seed disappeared in a state of extreme resentment and grievance.

The Sea Siren Seed, on the other hand, stretched out its tentacles with a contented look, appearing satisfied after a good meal, and began to stand up for itself in the Human-Faced Spider, which it had previously been afraid of.

However, the Sea Siren remained prostrate before the Black Snake Seed that coiled high above, clearly recognizing its place in the family.

"These Seed of Life feel like they really have life," Levi said.

He opened the Proficiency Panel again, and the Frost Wolf Breathing Technique had disappeared.

The Siren Breathing Technique has also changed:

Siren Breathing Technique: Fifth Order (Limit, can break limits, current progress of breaking limits is 1/3), Special Effects: Intermediate Speed, Bone Shrinking and Shape Shifting.

"One level Fourth-Order Limit Frost Wolf Breathing Technique can only increase the breakthrough progress by 1 point. In other words, I need two more level Fourth-Order Limit speed-type Breathing Technique to break through the limit?"

"That's dark enough."

Levi couldn't help but curse under his breath.

This damn Proficiency Panel completely replicates the tactics of certain pay-to-win online games from my past life.

According to the nature of this system, as the quality of Breathing Technique increases, the number of extreme Breathing Technique required to break through limits will also increase.

At present, it is not very useful.

However, if Levi needs to break through the limitations and advance to a perfect or Legendary Realm quality Breathing Technique, then this technique will be of great use. You should know that perfect and Legendary Realm Breathing Technique are basically something you can only come across by chance, and Levi doesn't expect to be able to obtain them at all.

However, both basic and excellent works can be collected in large quantities.

As long as one learns enough Breathing Technique, eventually all methods will converge and become integrated! Then one can create Legendary Realm Breathing Technique.

Even surpassing Legendary Realm!
