"Yes, sir."

Leo seemed to be the most obedient child; if his Undying Body forbade him to speak, he wouldn't.

But on his wrinkled face, Leo revealed a meaningful smile.

There is no kindness or care without a reason in any world.

Since meeting the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard in the Rota World, the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard has shown him considerable goodwill.

Leo could understand if it was just appreciation from a higher level to a lower level, but the help from the Undying Body this time clearly went beyond ordinary goodwill and appreciation; it was more like a form of cultivation or support.

When I first met the Beast Blood Boiling Stigmata Wizard, he asked me if I would join any organization.

Leo gained a deeper understanding of the goodwill expressed by the two of them. The seemingly glamorous upper echelons of the Wizard World also have their own storms. Indeed, wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue, and even these Stigmata Wizard are not immune to it.

Now, let's test the Undying Body Undying Body little. Judging from their intense reaction, as if they'd been touched on a cat's tail, they do indeed have some secrets they're afraid others will discover.

Leo closed his eyes and sighed inwardly. Being too outstanding was also a problem. Ordinary wizards wouldn't encounter these difficult problems, but he was facing them one after another.

Seeing that Leo did not pursue the matter further, the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, feeling guilty, quickly disappeared, afraid of being caught and questioned by Leo.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye. Although my body is still old, the weakness has lessened considerably. At the very least, I have regained my mobility and can walk for short periods of time.

The first thing I did after emerging from the incubation chamber was to write down the Soul-Splitting Secret Technique and some information about the Black Skull that I had obtained from the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard, and then submit it.

The following days were spent waiting for the review process to determine whether I would receive the Special-Class Wizard Medal.

Clad in the Godslaying Wizard Robe and leaning on Godslaying Staff, Leo walked slowly through the palace.

Yao Yao Yaoyao somewhere to play; she only comes back once every ten days or half a month.

Leo had no time to care where Yaoyao had gone off to play. Looking at the Godslaying Set that had been with him for hundreds of years and that he had personally crafted, he felt immense pain in his heart.

Godslaying Set was originally crafted from the bones and skin of the Goddess of Darkness, and I thought it would last until level four.

But now both pieces of equipment are covered in wounds. The Godslaying Wizard Robe has dozens of black holes of various sizes burned out by the Purple Flame, and the edges are charred.

The Godslaying Wizard Robe originally served to conceal his aura and hide his body; combined with Leo's Shadow Walking ability, it was like adding wings to a tiger.

But now all those abilities are gone. The protective Purple Flame flames of the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard have burned it to shreds, and even the increased defense has been reduced by 50%, reducing it to the level of an ordinary wizard's robe.

Godslaying Wizard Robe is in such a state, the Godslaying Staff is in even worse shape.

Originally, only an attack power of over 40,000 points could destroy the Godslaying Staff. Before level three, it had only been able to leave a fist imprint on the Tiger World when it was struck by a level three Limit Tiger Beastmen.

But now the entire Godslaying Staff is covered in cracks, as if it would shatter into countless pieces if any force was applied.

Even worse than the staff itself was the staff head. Because Li Xi had used it so many times, it had been repeatedly burned by the protective purple flames of the Purple Flame Saint Mark Wizard. As a result, only two-thirds of the heart remained. Not only could it no longer provide Li Xi with magical support, but its internal energy had also been completely drained.

Originally, it would pulsate once every ten breaths to absorb the surrounding energy, but now it only pulsates weakly once every fifty breaths. The energy that was just absorbed is like sand in your hand, instantly flowing away through the gap.

As for the bonuses of the Godslaying Set, it originally provides a 40% bonus to elemental attack power and a 60% bonus to Shadow Talent abilities. When used as a weapon for physical attacks, it can amplify attack power.

Now these figures are all down to less than 10%, which is almost no increase compared to before.

In other words, Leo originally had 100 shadows, which increased to 157 shadows after the amplification, but now he only has 110 shadows left.

The six domains that Leo had established with unparalleled power and merit have all disappeared because there weren't enough shadows.

"Cough cough, more than 50% of my strength is gone."

Leo, his body hunched over in old age, tried to manage a bitter laugh, but it all turned into a dry cough.

His Bloodline Power was depleted, and his internal organs and meridians were extremely weak, even weaker than a normal Elemental Wizard.

It would take at least several hundred years to recover to the peak of one's physical condition.

His weakened body prevented him from activating his Bloodline transformation, and he couldn't even unleash the first level of the Hunter Form.

This means that after losing the Godslaying Set bonus, Leo also lost all the body refinement bonuses, such as the 32% increase from Elemental Body Tempering and the Body Core Explosion.

Aside from these, the remaining abilities include elemental sorcery attacks.

Without the benefits of Elemental Body Tempering refinement, the Godslaying Set bonus, and the damage reduction from the six major domains, Leo's elemental attack power has fallen to the level of an ordinary Level Three Wizard.

Furthermore, because Leo hadn't studied most of the witchcraft in depth, only having a basic understanding, his witchcraft attack power was even inferior to that of those Level Three Great Wizard.

After his battle with the Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard, he went from being an extreme level three powerhouse admired and worshipped by all wizards to becoming an ordinary level Level Three Great Wizard.

Even due to his physical weakness and decay, the total amount of magic power within him was less than that of wizards of the same level, making him far weaker compared to his previous peak.

"What are you afraid of? Your lifespan Level Three Great Wizard is as high as five thousand years. A few hundred years is just a matter of time. As long as you get the Special-Class Wizard Medal, and you don't have any mandatory expedition missions, you can go back to the Wizard Tower and stay there for a few hundred years until your Bloodline Power recovers. You'll be a hero again."

"If the equipment breaks, it breaks; just forge it again. Out with the old, in with the new."

Yaoyao comes back once every two weeks, and it's even more difficult for him to come back once in a while to comfort Leo's heart, which is almost dead from the great losses.

" Leo, your Special-Class Wizard Medal has been approved. Would you like to hold a grand award ceremony so that all wizards can see your true face and celebrate your moment of glory?"

The voice of the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard rang out, seemingly frivolous, but Leo seemed to detect a hidden, wicked motive in his tone.

"Sir, looking at me like this, am I still capable of attending the medal award ceremony?"

Leo's body was hunched over, and the wrinkles all over his body did not resemble those of Legendary Great Wizard at all; he looked like an old man with yellow earth buried on his neck.

"You should just give it to me directly." Leo shakily stretched out his arm. He wanted to minimize his time in the public eye; his body was too weak, and he always felt insecure.

A crisp sound rang out, and a golden medal appeared from the void and landed in Leo's palm.

"That lord said that all the conditions we discussed before have been met, and you can apply for it when you return to the Wizard World." Seeing that Leo didn't want to hold any award ceremony, the Undying Body seemed a little bored.

"When can I go back?" Leo asked.

The Purple Flame Stigmata Wizard is dead, the backlash from the Vengeance Giant Bloodline has disappeared, and he has even obtained a Special-Class Wizard Medal, accomplishing an unprecedented feat.

The war here has nothing to do with Leo. He doesn't want to stay here anymore; he's exhausted and wants to go home.

"Heh, do you think we can go back without dealing with the Black Skull?" The Undying Body sneered, mocking Leo's wishful thinking.

Without dealing with the Black Skull, the seal on the entire world cannot be lifted, and no one can escape.

"When will this be resolved?"

How should I know?

Leo actually saw impatience and an eye-roll on the face of the Undying Body; he was probably even more anxious than he was.

After saying this, the Undying Body disappeared without a trace, and no one knew where he went. He seemed very afraid of being alone with Leo now, especially worried that Leo might say something unexpected.

"Let me see what the Special-Class Wizard Medal looks like!"

Yaoyao couldn't wait to stand on Leo's shoulder, craning her neck to look at Leo's tightly clenched palm.

Special-Class Wizard Medal! A true legendary treasure.

When the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard threw it to him, Leo didn't see it clearly. Now, with the same anxious expression as Yaoyao, he immediately opened his palm.

The golden medal has no engraved designs, but rather a constantly rippling surface of water.

Looking at the ripples in the water, Leo seemed to sense something and blurted out, "This is the materialized Wizard Will."

After he finished speaking, he was shocked by his own words. He didn't know why he had recognized the Wizard Will so easily.

"Is this the materialized Wizard Will?"

Yaoyao practically pressed her face against the golden medal, seemingly unable to believe that these wizards would dare to materialize their Wizard Will and then seal it within the medal.

The Wizard Will is equivalent to the ancestor of all wizards, the parent of all wizards. The small piece of Wizard Will that they seal away represents that they have cut off a piece of their ancestor and parent.

Every wizard can achieve the deepest resonance with the Wizard Will 'Wizard Will and receive its protection.

It can be said that wizards and their Wizard Will are a symbiotic entity bound together.

Leo extended his mental energy, attempting to touch the Wizard Will. However, when his mental energy touched the Wizard Will, a look of shock instantly appeared on Leo's face. Although his expression quickly returned to normal, that look of shock remained.

Seeing that no one noticed his unusual behavior, Leo quickly hung the Special-Class Wizard Medal on his chest with a strange expression, placing it next to the other three medals.

" The Special-Class Wizard Medal, aside from the requirement that can be specially applied for, provides an annual subsidy of 500 energy crystals. Although it lacks the subsidy of a Third Class medal, the subsidies for the First-Class Wizard Medal and Third-Class Wizard Medal remain."

With this Special-Class Wizard Medal, Leo receives a stipend of 720 energy crystals per year, a sum equivalent to the entire fortune of a First-Level Wizard!

Ensure that Leo receives excellent living conditions during his recuperation period.

"The protective shield released has a defensive power of 20,000 points. At this moment, the protective shield released by the four Wizard Medals can provide a certain sense of security."

"As for the discounts on goods purchased with the Special-Class Wizard Medal, whoever tries to buy it will be crying," Leo said with a sly laugh.
