Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2921: 593: Seven Calamities Ancient Clan! The Master’s Return!

Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...

Levi convinced the Red Ghost and Black Ghost to return to Nora willingly, halting the conflict among the ancient clans and boarding a silver ship alongside the Qilin Clan, where they encountered dozens of powerful giants exuding level 9 and 10 auras. Three years later, in the Ancient Banyan Fairyland, Levi reviewed vast changes in Nora through a projection with Elena: over twenty thousand planes fused, the Star Gate project advancing, and the Dream Steal Project underway using materials from slain Nightmare Monarchs, fueling booms in the School of Dreams and knight orders. The Dusk Holy Temple forged ties with the Beast Taming Continent for bloodline essences, propelling advancements like the Golden Lion Knight's level 8 breakthrough and Duke Rumon's rapid progress, while the Silver Dragon Knight yielded his position to the rising Dragon Flame Knight. Levi then refined the Seven Disasters Pearl using the newly mastered Primordial Soul Treasure Refining Method, nurturing its spirituality as it summoned a formidable seven-elemental tribulation, into which he fed rare materials.

Soon enough, the materials morphed into a vibrant torrent, sucked into the Seven Disasters Pearl as if by a whale gulping down the ocean, rendering the pearl far more radiant with surges of holy glow.

Days later, the ordeal had fully vanished, and the once-static Seven Disasters Pearl underwent a change, now casting a shadowy form seven inches high.

The figure's look echoed Levi's own a bit, staring at him with intrigued eyes, forging a link of shared insight between Levi and the pearl.

"Ma... Master."

An pure notion transmitted from the Seven Disasters Pearl's core.

"Has it truly evolved into a sentient entity?"

Levi's eyes flickered a touch.

With a flick of his hand, the tiny seven-inch form zipped toward him and settled onto his hand.

"Master."

The notion echoed again.

"What should we call you?"

"What's a name mean?"

Just like an infant fresh to the world, it brimmed with unfamiliarity about every idea. It was only via the primordial soul link that it recognized Levi as its master, with their minds in sync.

"Starting today, your name is Qibao."

"Alright, Qibao... Master, I'm starving."

"What kind of food do you crave?"

"The stuff you gave me earlier."

"Oh, got it."

Levi pulled out a hefty stack of worthless beginner materials, and Qibao drifted close, inhaled, nibbled one bit, then gobbled them up with delight.

Once done eating, Levi sensed its presence grow faintly from level 9, barely noticeable, likely because the materials were so basic.

He swapped them for superior ones next, all pieces rated above level 6. Qibao's gaze sparkled, and it feasted with even greater gusto this round, its energy climbing steadily.

Within mere days, it leaped from early level 9 to mid level 9, then halted, compelling Levi to offer up some incredibly rare level 9 materials.

"Wow, that's the good stuff, Master!"

Devouring like a whirlwind, Qibao's power swelled up, and finally, upon hitting the top of level 9, it patted its plump tummy, floating lazily in the air.

"I'm stuffed, Qibao is stuffed."

By now, it stood as a pinnacle level 9 treasure.

Via the primordial soul treasure refining technique, Levi understood that for the next step up, it required devouring a Divine Artifact, while his own primordial soul had to achieve legendary rank.

"Such an astonishing mystic art, this is revolutionary work!"

Excitement surged through Levi.

Thus, every primordial soul wizard could, beyond linking to a Soul Artifact, also attach to a special treasure, and the Soul Artifact's caliber could keep getting upgraded and enhanced.

The special treasure, after gaining awareness, could ingest valuable resources to boost itself—a straightforward yet brutal approach, though wildly expensive. Few could sustain feeding such a money pit, which had already gulped down Aether Stones worth trillions.

Naturally, without aiming for a top-tier special treasure, the expenses wouldn't skyrocket so high.

He uploaded the primordial soul treasure refining method to the congress's archive for access charges, spreading it wide. Soon, primordial soul treasure refining would sweep through as the next big thing.

...

Three months passed.

Within the Nightmare World.

In the Swallowing Sky Domain's minor Flesh Mountain Realm.

A massive blob-like creature, all flab and fury, thrashed about in the wilds, belching out dazzling white fire. Facing it was a seven-inch multicolored silhouette.

"Seven Disasters Domain!"

As the rainbow domain unfurled over ten thousand miles, seven apocalyptic calamities materialized like grinding wheels from nowhere, making the Meat Mountain Overlord screech in agony. Before long, this mid-level 9 force perished inside.

All that lingered was a mound of blubber and a Nightmare Crystal.

Levi scooped up the loot, his face beaming with satisfaction.

"Incredible strength! Qibao's might is unbeatable below level 10, nearly like a semi-level 10. Every scrap of level 9 material I poured into you was worth it."

Qibao shrank back to its pearl shape, slipping into Levi's consciousness.

"Master, that foe was way too feeble earlier."

"I get it, stronger prey comes next."

The Seven Disasters' might proved truly invaluable.

Exiting the Swallowing Sky Domain, Levi entered the Lost Domain.

With days ticking by, three forms showed up one after another, all Nightmare Overlords long subjugated by Levi, the Black Emperor.

"Share what you know about the current state,"

Levi shut his eyes, absorbing their updates.

The Pain Dominator, formerly serving the Rotten Sovereign, reported:

"Master, following that initial loss, the Lost Monarch tapped its network, rallying forces throughout the Nightmare World. It's also running a massive sacrificial ceremony alongside various elite monarchs to rouse the dormant Supreme Will."

Levi's forehead creased a little, "Rouse the Supreme Will?"

"Indeed, the Nightmare World's Supreme Will has slumbered for ages; only it can unite those power-hungry monarchs who otherwise ignore one another. Absent its call, amassing sufficient armies would demand centuries or even millennia."

"Doesn't the Nightmare World possess a level 11 manifestation, akin to the Supreme Will?"

"It does, called the 'Lord of Fear'... From what I recall, a hundred thousand years back, amid the clash between Nightmare and the astral realm, it clashed fiercely with the Father of All Gods and the Mother of All Gods, suffered a deep wound, and retreated into the Supreme Will's form to recover."

"How many level 10s is the Lost Monarch aiming to call forth?"

"I have no idea."

"About when might it finish?"

"Hard to say, drawing from past events, it could be as quick as a century or stretch to three to five centuries. The more time spent readying, the greater the number of level 10s deployed.

In the Ancient Era, our longest prep lasted a thousand years, sparking a war with 300 Nightmare Monarchs—the grandest showdown ever against the astral world, claiming over 80 Monarch lives and toppling more than a hundred Gods from their thrones."

"Understood, any leads on the Twilight Demon?"
