Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2888: 587: Nine Rings Perfected, Chaos Holy Body, and the Secrets of the Universe!
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
The wizards within the city gazed up at the heavens, their gazes brimming with astonishment.
"Is somebody on the verge of breaking into the ninth-circle?"
"Indeed, but why does the aura feel so immense?"
"Might it be Master Fire Dragon, or perhaps Lord Victor or Gandaph?"
"It has to be one of those figures, though they just reached Eight Ring Perfection not long ago; could the ninth-circle really come this quickly?"
"Maybe a concealed expert is emerging?"
"This is bad, will Gondor City's protections hold against such force?"
"Relax, the Nine Rings Barrier is strong enough to block a Level 9 Catastrophe."
The protective array around the city began to glow brightly.
Gandaph Pharmacy, inside a hidden chamber.
The robes of the elderly man in white billowed wildly, as various strange phenomena surrounding him faded away.
"Merging these Ancient Four Body Refining Techniques has triggered an unprecedented calamity, one never mentioned in any ancient books. Yet this [Giant God’s Shoulder] truly packs a punch, boosting spiritual force by a full 1000 points upon successful refinement."
Gandaph let out a heavy sigh of stale air.
Thanks to his exceptional achievements, the Body Refining Wizard College had delivered the Glorious Sun-Grade treasure [Giant God’s Shoulder] to him earlier than planned.
After absorbing it, he felt empowered like a god, swiftly completing the "Thousand-Eyed Titan Body Tempering Technique" that he was close to mastering.
His [Ancient Divine Body] underwent another transformation, blending with the Giant God’s robust physique to evolve into the [Chaos Holy Body]. This elite constitution allows effortless practice of any body refining method, at speeds that dwarf the norm.
Moreover, the might of the [Chaos Body Refining Rune] vastly outstrips the earlier [Dragon and Snake Prison Rune], showing a world of difference in three-way or four-way fusions.
Reaching chaos level means a fundamental shift, akin to his main body's [Aether Dominance]. While his primary form treads the Chaos Magic route, this avatar follows the chaos body refining path.
Besides that, a treasure called [Mountain God], another Glorious Sun-Grade spiritual entity, emerged to join [Nightmare Black Dragon], [Wild], and [Yaksha] as the quartet of guardians.
"At this point, I ought to be capable of challenging Level 9 foes."
He laid his palm on the Klein Crystal Ball.
[Spiritual Force: 23600/25000]
...
To ensure family cohesion, as per the main body's directives, the spiritual force cap for all three avatars exceeded the 25000 threshold. Without that, this treasure alone would have propelled Gandaph straight to the Eight Ring Limit.
"I feel like I could smash a massive dragon with a single strike right now."
Gandaph breathed out deeply, eager to ascend immediately to Body Refining Great Wizard status.
"Hold on, better to handle the tribulation first."
His form blurred, teleporting high into the skies.
Storm clouds of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water loomed oppressively.
As the Giant God shifted mountains, the Wild God devoured flames, the Ghost God stirred gales, and the Dragon God invoked storms... these were the visions from the four Glorious Sun body refining treasures he had integrated, manifesting amid the ordeal.
"[Giant God’s Shoulder], [Wild God’s Body], [Dragon God’s Blood], [Ghost God’s Claw]... are these elements of sequence artifacts?"
Gandaph mused thoughtfully.
He thought back to his main body's [Elemental Proof].
Once he hits the ninth-circle, he might try refining body refining treasures tied to lightning, frost, and metal.
That could lead to forging a unified Seven Elements artifact, potentially culminating in a Legendary Body Refining Artifact. Naturally, these remain mere speculations on his part.
No historical figure has ever pulled this off.
He stands as the ultimate trailblazer in this domain!
Rumble!
The approaching Level 9 Catastrophe unleashes its fury.
"Bring it on! The ideal trial for my newfound might!"
Four-hued chaotic runes shimmered over Gandaph’s frame, one by one... totaling 880 million body refining runes that merged into his arms, legs, and very cells.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
As the body refining method activated, the surrounding space quivered without control; even time-space warped faintly, revealing his Domain Power.
Dubbed the [Chaos Field].
Resembling a primordial savage beast, every inhalation unleashed a torrent of rune-infused essence, golden blood pulsing vibrantly within, while 888 illusory dragons and elephants arose behind him like an eternal battle array, radiating lethal intent.
"King Dragon Elephant Fist! Strike!"
Wherever this fist barreled through, the firmament cracked apart, a thousand-mile expanse quaked, and central essences dissolved into basic Elemental Particles of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water.
Typically, only Grand Wizards wield such devastating effects.
But Gandaph now commands it too.
Just as his original self once did!
In Gondor City on the Ancient Dragon Continent... myriad eyes fixed on the aerial Gandaph, believing he neared ninth-circle ascension, oblivious to the truth of this being the trial for a groundbreaking cultivation art's emergence.
Dragons and elephants stormed the tribulation clouds, wreaking havoc unchecked.
Soon enough, the heavens brightened, and the rift in reality sealed.
Gandaph drew in vast amounts of elemental energy, his exhalation booming like thunder, his words echoing across thousands of miles.
"It appears that before reaching my Eight Ring Limit, I stand a good chance of harnessing the force of a thousand dragons and elephants... Based on calculations, that level matches ninth-circle strength. My full-powered assault now rivals Lord Victor's closely."
Gandaph glanced at the spectators below.
"Everyone, scatter for now."
"Senior Gandaph, have you attained the ninth-circle?" a voice inquired.
"Not quite yet, hahaha."
Gandaph chuckled loudly before heading back to the pharmacy.
Following his tribulation, the golden sword formation encircling Gondor City shattered into myriad tiny golden blades, vanishing toward the Eastern Sea's edge.
The Gondor Three Heroes always backed one another during tribulations, their legendary bond revered across Nora.
Not much later.
Astonishment spread as a fresh body refining technique popped up in the Body Refining Academy's exchange area for cultivation methods, titled "Chaotic Body Refining Method—Low-level Chapter".
