Nora's new Dream Wall technology has significantly reduced casualties from Nightmare incursions. This success has emboldened Nora to plan a full-scale counterattack against the Nightmare World. Meanwhile, a young warrior named Leon returns after ten years, revealing his unique soul-devouring abilities and his intention to forge his own path outside the Dark Universe.

Leon declared:

"Master, I chose this path because I am confident in your ability to lead me away from my mother's enduring shadow. My aspiration is to forge my own destiny and establish a world that is uniquely mine."

Levi placed a hand on Leon's shoulder, responding:

"Excellent! That's the spirit. Ensure your realm is well-stabilized. Missing the upcoming grand feast is simply not an option. This time, we shall extinguish the Nightmare for good!"

...

Thirty years eventually passed.

The year 3500 by the Nora Calendar.

Within the ethereal Ancient Banyan Fairyland, Levi's eyes snapped open.

His inherent aura had advanced by an entire stage.

The Crimson Emperor, Golden Emperor, and Black Emperor had each successfully condensed Five Stars. Simultaneously, the White Emperor, Green Emperor, and Nightmare Emperor had achieved Four Stars. All six of his dimensions had now ascended to the Middle Stage of Level 10.

With the might of 27 dimensional stars at his command, who would dare oppose him?

He then accessed his proficiency panel.

Levi ——————————————

Legendary Profession: Chaos Emperor!

Knight Profession: Time-Riding Six Dragons!

Compound Profession: Fusion in Progress (Current: 30%)

...

"The fusion progress has climbed by an additional ten percent," Levi noted.

He summoned Seven Treasures, remarking:

"Come, my disciple, receive a sword technique from me!"

Exerting a mere thirty percent of his power, Levi unleashed a strike.

Seven Treasures, drenched in a cold sweat, activated the Seven Disasters Domain in desperate defense.

With a resounding impact, the lesser being was propelled backward, crashing some distance away.

"Master, your strength is overwhelming. I simply cannot withstand it," Seven Treasures cried out, returning to Levi's side with a sense of grievance.

It felt perpetually used as a training dummy by its master. Despite being a supreme treasure of the highest caliber, it bore a burden no mere artifact should endure.

"Hahaha, this marks the final time, I assure you," Levi chuckled, retracting Seven Treasures.

He meticulously reviewed every asset at his disposal – his divine weapon, wizard tower, formations, and more – before journeying to the Sorren Continent. The designated seats around the grand round table were already occupied.

As of this moment, the number of Level 10 powerhouses within Nora had surged to 72.

Over the preceding centuries, four additional Level 10 powerhouses had emerged.

The first was the king of the Copper Giant clan from the Giant Continent.

[Copper Throne Saint Venerable Rockel].

An esteemed veteran among the Giants, Rockel's ascent was bolstered by the [Red Copper Armor], a supreme treasure preemptively bestowed by the congress. He thus seamlessly secured his position as the Giants' eighth Level 10 exponent.

Consequently.

All eight prominent Giant clans now boasted their own kings, whereas certain declining tribes, such as the [Dark Race Giant] and [Light Armor Giant], still required further development. In terms of Level 10 count, the Giants had now surpassed the barbarian tribes, ranking second only to the wizard civilization.

Another ascended Level 10 was the esteemed leader of the Green Scale Clan.

He had established his reputation long ago. When Levi first encountered him over two millennia prior, he was already a seasoned Level 9 Middle Stage expert. Shortly after aligning with Nora, he advanced to the Late Stage Realm.

Numerous conflicts had evidently sharpened his prowess. Following the reunification of the Seven-Colored Scale Clan, a collaborative effort among the seven clans propelled the Star Splitter, aiming to elevate their collective standing and influence.

Prior to his Tribulation, the Supreme Council saw fit to bestow upon him a supreme treasure, crafted thirty thousand years earlier by a now-deceased Legendary Wizard and subsequently refined.

This artifact bore the name [Earth Emperor Dragon Scale Armor].

In the end, he triumphed, shattering the ancestral curse that had plagued the Seven-Colored Scale Clan, preventing any from reaching Level 10. While he might not equate to the legendary Seven-colored Scale Master of antiquity who attained Level 10 through the Chaos Path...

He represented a vital cornerstone for the scale clan's civilization.

This development affirmed that, even without treading the Chaos Path, the scale clan possessed the capacity to reach Level 10. As a species endowed with immense potential, the emergence of a Supreme being from their ranks in the future was a distinct possibility.

The Seven-Colored Scale Clan had truly ascended to the status of a major power within Nora.

The remaining two Level 10 individuals were both Legendary Wizards.

One was a prominent member of the Dusk Squad, [Golden Wind Speaker Moli]. Levi’s final confirmation indicated she was not a Legendary Reincarnation. Instead, her relentless dedication to cultivation and exceptional talent, coupled with an unwavering focus, propelled her to become the earliest Legend.

Her Legendary Profession was the [Wind Speaker], her Demiplane was the [Harvest Realm], and her legendary title was hailed as [The Sage Who Communes with the Autumn Wind, the Empress Who Rules the Harvest].

The designation "Golden Wind" directly alluded to the autumn breeze.

Her Legendary Profession also bore a strong connection to the concept of harvest.

The technique she developed, "Molly’s Golden Wind Hand," possessed the remarkable ability to drastically accelerate plant growth, mirroring the effects of "Flower Blossoms in a Moment," and had even begun to brush against the Path of Time.

Consequently, her abilities gravitated more towards agriculture and research rather than pure combat, where she was surpassed by those with Legendary Professions such as [Wind Songster] and [Poet of the Wind].

Miss Jin Feng and Rowling were both designated by Levi to serve as Nora’s “Minister of Agriculture,” taking charge of the Dark Ancient Tower’s primary resource zones.

Each territory possessed distinct strengths, and effective logistics was identified as a crucial component in warfare.

Currently, Duke Rumon and the Ice Sea Witch had both achieved Nine Rings Perfect Cultivation. While one cultivated both underground fire and moonlight alongside being a knight, and the other dual-cultivated ice and water, their advancement beyond the Ninth Circle had been slower than Miss Jin Feng’s. However, their eventual transition into Legends would undoubtedly make them extraordinary figures.

Furthermore, those who had once stood alongside Levi as Supernovas—including [Destruction Realm Thunder], [Light Divine Sword], and [Hand of Fire God]—were all Senior Nine Ring cultivators.

They too were considered potential seeds for future Legends.

The second individual to ascend to Legend status was [Silver Banker Nasimento].

His Legendary title: [Silver Saint].

He had previously held the position of dean at the Body Refining Academy, a role Gandaph assumed after his own rise. Ten years prior, Nasimento successfully broke through to Legend, becoming the second Legend to emerge from the Metal School.

His Legendary Profession was designated as [Soul of Silver], his Demiplane was the [Silver Soul Hall], and his legendary honorific was proclaimed as [The Eternal Undying Silver Soul, the Sovereign Who Rules Ten Thousand Silvers].

In contrast to the Bronze Warlord, who commanded copper puppets, the Silver Saint’s primary ability revolved around enhancing metals. By integrating the Life Faction’s Enlightenment Magic, he devised a unique Legendary spell:

This spell was named [Nasimento’s Silver Battle Soul].

It possessed the capability to imbue any surrounding physical metal object with temporary spirituality, manifesting a battle soul of legendary-tier might. The potency of this battle soul was directly proportional to the Silver Saint’s spiritual force. The battle soul could engage in combat or transform into silver armor to shield his person, proving remarkably versatile.

Following his attainment of Legend status, the Silver Saint reverted to focusing on the Body Refining Technique, frequently visiting Gondor City to seek guidance from Gandaph, almost to the point of becoming his disciple.

Consequently.

The total number of Legendary Wizards now reached 25, effectively doubling the count from before the Golden Warhammer Age.

Nora’s Great Wizards numbered 450, and the quantity of Level 9 alien races surpassed 700. This figure was calculated despite the annual attrition rate of numerous Level 9 Experts lost in battle.

Levi announced:

“The combined might of Nora and the Underworld Alliance Army represents an unprecedented level of strength, and our Dream Wall System has proven remarkably effective. This marks the 3500th year of Nora.

In this current era, the Mother River and the Nightmare Will are locked in conflict, granting us invaluable time. The Abyss and the astral world have not yet entered the fray, seemingly waiting to profit from the sidelines.

Our objective is to eradicate the Nightmare before Nora reaches its 4000th year.

What follows is the decisive counteroffensive war that will determine the very Destiny of our civilization.

Apart from the forces designated to defend Nora, all other personnel will accompany me into the Land of Darkness to disrupt the Nightmare ritual. Should you encounter peril, do not hesitate to utilize the Dark Ancient Tower.”

Proactively seeking conflict inherently carried a degree of risk. However, the circumstances had shifted; Nora had attained sufficient strength. The necessity of enduring continuous assaults and maintaining a defensive posture had diminished. Prolonged defensiveness would strain resources, and the adversaries Nora faced could potentially include the Abyss.

Despite their past animosities, the two Giants might unite in the face of an existential threat. The advantage Nora had meticulously built could evaporate overnight.

Nevertheless, to ensure a measure of safety and allow the expeditionary forces in the Darkness ample time to return and provide support, it was imperative to allocate some Level 10 combat power to Nora’s defense.

On one hand were veteran guardians such as Daydreamer and the Blazing Star God Witch. On the other, Herman’s Mechanical Celestial would remain on constant standby.

He was now capable of manifesting 15 heavenly deities.

Ultimately, Nora and the Underworld collectively assigned nearly 30 Level 10 powerhouses to secure Nora.

All remaining Level 10 cultivators would join the expedition, committing their full strength!

Levi surveyed the assembled individuals and issued the final command.

“Commence Operation!”
