Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2931: 595: A Century of Seclusion, Body Refining Great Wizard, Abyss Sky King Armor! (part 2)
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
Recently, Anya had advanced past the Eight Environments, entering the elite ranks just shy of Grand Wizard status. The thought of his mother on the verge of becoming a Grand Wizard filled him with a mix of thrill and anxiety.
The Phantom Witch responded:
"Don’t worry, dear husband. Given Mother’s meticulous preparations, success is certain for her."
"Indeed, problems seem unlikely... By the way, our rise to the Eight Environments happened quicker than we expected. Could we possibly aim for the ninth-circle?"
"Let’s give it everything and leave no regrets!"
"Without this time period, pushing to the seventh-circle would have been a real challenge for us." Anya let out a sigh, recalling that his starting talent ranked as merely a minor prodigy.
In the past, the sixth-circle represented his highest achievable goal.
"Truth be told, the Abyss and Nightmare behemoths have seized far too many resources, holding back our progress. Our true capabilities deserve more than this confinement!"
"Should the gods and demons vanish, wouldn’t every soul rise to dragon-like might?"
"Things would undoubtedly improve from the current state."While the pair exchanged words, turmoil stirred in the oceans and heavens overhead.
"It’s starting—the Level 9 Catastrophe descends now!"
Anya and his companions fixed their gazes intently, as Elena along with fellow senior organization leaders gathered to witness Triss enduring the tribulation, hoping to draw valuable knowledge and experiences.
At the wizard tower’s summit stood Triss, enveloped in a protective barrier. The Sea Country array activated, featuring six primary soldier types in formation, while the Five Poisons Projection loomed massively across the firmament, radiating overwhelming presence!
"Sea Country Kill Formation!"
Magical incantations and unique ethereal beings launched skyward, erupting in spectacular light. The enormous tribulation, typically demanding a ninth-circle wizard’s full might to survive, dissipated within fewer than a hundred breaths...
All onlookers stood frozen in shock.
"Is that the extent of the Level 9 Catastrophe?"
"The trial itself wasn’t feeble; Triss simply readied herself too well. Even at Eight Ring Perfection, her battle strength neared level 9, making this crossing straightforward."
Relief finally washed over Anya’s mind.
"Congratulations, Mother, on attaining the ninth-circle!"
Elena, tinged with a touch of jealousy, commented:
"She’s a Grand Wizard at last—that’s incredible!"
Soon after, Triss adjusted her attire and approached the group.
"Thanks to everyone for watching over me and ensuring my safety!"
High in the heavens.
A lone silhouette materialized, exuding timeless antiquity.
Thousand Mountains Immortal Alexander.
"Triss, having achieved the ninth-circle, you’re now eligible to take me as your master and delve into Pharmacy. Do you accept?" his voice boomed.
Triss answered:
"I accept, though I must notify Senior Black Abyss first."
A figure in dark robes emerged—it was Black Abyss Sovereign Aaron.
He chuckled and declared:
"No need for discussion—just proceed and join. My own Pharmacy knowledge stems from the Deep Blue Sage, and purely in terms of Pharmacy, even the Sage would bow to the Medicine God as a student."
Thousand Mountains Immortal.
Since the wizard forebear’s vanishing, he stood as the supreme Pharmacy expert across the Nora Council’s three hundred thousand years. Countless alchemists yearned to study beneath him!
Fortune doubled upon her.
Not only did she triumph in reaching the ninth-circle, but she also gained apprenticeship under the Medicine God.
Joy beyond words sparkled in Triss’s eyes, a torrent of feelings rising within as she, after over 2800 years, embraced the existence she had always desired.
Following this, Triss integrated into the Pharmacist Association and the Nora Council, rising as a key pillar in the Nora civilization and marking the 176th ninth-circle wizard.
Her life entered a fresh chapter, driven by one ambition for the coming 4200 years... to pour her soul into becoming legendary!
...
Five years passed.
Nora Calendar 1807, Blood Battle Calendar 1695.
Beyond Gondor City.
A surge of ice and fire elemental waves spanned a thousand miles, all drawn into the purple-clad form meditating in emptiness. The Holy Infant gazed upward.
A calamity far more dread-inducing than Triss’s arrived.
For every extra path cultivated, the catastrophe intensified threefold. For this exalted entity, it formed history’s mightiest Level 9 Catastrophe.
The "Duobao Linglong Tower" above his head whirled, whipping up a maelstrom of ice and fire. An eight-tier wizard tower unfolded, with stacked premium Wizard Tools resembling parasols, hand fans, hoops...
He lifted a palm, sending the wizard tower piercing the clouds to clash against the tribulation clouds.
At the same time, the Dusk Squad’s Great Wizards formed a safeguard ring, shielding the Holy Infant’s tribulation grounds. This aligned with Nora’s recent law:
Fanorlans undergoing tribulation could request official escorts for protection, safeguarding against threats and shadowy interferences.
Armed with the formidable wizard tower and exotic ethereal entities, the Holy Infant surmounted the ordeal with ease—a standard feat for premier supernovas like him.
"Gondor City indeed breeds endless prodigies!"
City Lord Lucian beamed with delight, as this era delivered wave after wave of glad tidings: his father welcomed a successor, and Ace claimed the ninth-circle!
"Come on, Dusk Squad members, let’s feast and celebrate within the city walls."
"Hahaha, we’re on our way."
Duke Rumon, Lady Molly, and the Ice Sea Witch all exuded heightened vigor, clearly having broken into the Advanced Nine Ring Realm, forging ahead reliably toward legendary status.
In this way, Nora welcomed its 177th Grand Wizard.
Afterward, Ace affiliated with the Artifact Maker Association, securing an honorary vice president role via his unmatched renown and forging expertise.
Though honorary in nature, it immensely aided Fire Dragon Sky Work’s endeavors.
Upon hitting the ninth-circle, Ace’s core aspiration burned to employ Level 9 Purple Crystal in enhancing his wizard tower’s array of elite Wizard Tools.
Artifact crafting and his bond with the Amethyst Race fueled his genuine fervor!
...
Another five years elapsed.
Nora Calendar 1812.
The Blood Battle marked its 1700th year.
Since the demons retreated from Nora, no hints of their comeback appeared, yet all understood it stemmed not from fear.
Engaged in battles across numerous theaters, their forces spread thin. Presently, they probably gathered power, lurking at a distance, biding time until Nora and the Nightmare World drained each other dry, then striking with savage force!
