Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 3103: 637: Daughter of Sauron

The sequence continued, revealing the Third Pillar: Netherworld Dog Lord, followed by the Fourth Pillar: Fertile Sheep Mother, the Fifth Pillar: Beast Lord, the Sixth Pillar: Shura’s Eye, and the Seventh Pillar: Tomb King. Several familiar figures were also present, but they were set aside for now. Both the Sixth and Seventh Pillars, originally outstanding among the ninth-level pillars, had recently seized opportunities during the Nightmare War, successfully advancing to level ten. The Shura Eye Clan, to which the former belonged, consisted of humanoid beings with a single large eye, renowned for their combat prowess and mastery of the potent Asura Pupil Technique. It was said that a mere glance from them could decide life and death, a truly fearsome ability. The Tomb King, the most powerful undead besides the Death Knight, presided over a vast territory of a thousand tombs, commanding an army of thousands of undead, resembling a Skeleton King. This entity rode a level 9 undead bone dragon and wielded the supreme treasure known as the [Forest Ghost]. Standing beside the Tomb King was Levi’s subordinate, the Bloody Queen. Having been impressed by Mary’s considerable writing talent, the Bloody Queen had taken Mary under her wing, and Mary was now flourishing. The eighth and final pillar of the Eight Formation Map was the Master of the Absurd, Gargamel. Hailing from the astral world, this legendary wizard commanded the grand array that sealed heaven and earth, ensuring no demons could escape. The King of Hell spoke condescendingly, asserting, "Just as the Netherworld Ancestor anticipated, you damned insects never miss an opportunity to exploit... Su Ke, of the Four Great Demon Lords, only you and Pazuzu remain?" The Water Demon Lord’s expression shifted, and it retorted, "Hell is merely a defeated entity under our Abyss. Do you truly believe you have me cornered? Why not release me and spare both our lives? Now, with the Nightmare outside creating such immense pressure on your forces, both the astral world and the Underworld are scrambling for self-preservation. Do you still intend to provoke us Abyss?" Gargamel responded with a laugh, "We are targeting the Abyss!" Tasked as the demon specialist, Gargamel had been stationed here by Levi. Employing an empty city strategy for an ambush to intercept any unexpected guests, Levi had learned from Surgard and the Shadow Demon Queen that the Abyss operated without adhering to common rules. They were a group of madmen entirely devoid of order, even daring to defy the Supreme Will. Therefore, vigilance could not be relaxed simply because most Abyss forces were on the move; the home front absolutely needed to be defended. The King of Hell swung his chain hammer, striking the Water Demon Lord. "Soldiers, join me in capturing these Seven Demons!" A small-scale Underworld defense battle commenced simultaneously. ... In the Realm of Nora, the Dream Wall operated ceaselessly. In recent days, numerous individuals had reported dreaming of a small, golden spinning top while sleeping, unaware that countless others were engaged in secret battles. On the Sorren Continent, the Daydreamer and the Blazing Star God Witch sat facing each other, one confronting enemies within dreams, the other handling foes in the physical realm. The Blazing Star God Witch remarked, "Thankfully, the Dream Wall exists, saving billions of lives." Although the war had only just begun, hundreds of Nightmare Overlords had invaded Nora amidst the chaos, overwhelming both of them, and their only recourse was the Dream Wall. The real-time interception and strike capabilities of the Heavenly Net proved too powerful. The Daydreamer stated, "Perhaps the Mechanical School will become our short-lived species’ greatest reliance in the future." From the clouds, descending across the continent, Mechanical Celestials occasionally appeared. Shimmering with electric light and generating magnetic fields, they brutally tore apart overlords with extreme satisfaction. The mechanical roars echoing through the sky converged, forming the most powerful sound of the era! Herman, much like a Cybernetic God, operated on the foundation of the Heavenly Net, rendering him omnipresent and all-knowing. As an electronic signal, he could manifest within any mechanical creation, personally resolving crisis after crisis. To date, he had saved billions of lives. ... On the Dark Side of Nora, Wagner also encountered enemies. A group of shadow demons had stealthily invaded the dark side, intending to use it as a pathway to infiltrate Nora's front lines and cause significant trouble. However, Wagner discovered them in time and eradicated them. "Did the Shadow Demon Queen perish? Are there still level 10 Shadow Demons?" Wagner furrowed his brows. Thus far, no Nightmare Creatures had invaded through this particular route. His work had been relatively peaceful. Suddenly, his expression turned cold as he detected a sneaky shadow quietly penetrating deep into the dark side, virtually undetectable without extremely close inspection. "Hmph!" With a mere thought, Wagner conjured a giant hand, which swept across with immense force. The Shadow’s Palm descended, and the shadow creature exploded. A figure, appearing panicked and clad in a hooded black robe, was flung towards the sky, pursued by tens of thousands of Death Crows. "Bird of Death... Shadow Lord?!" Wagner smirked coldly, amplifying his strength and unleashing a vast spiritual force. The fleeing figure abruptly halted, gasping as tens of thousands of colossal shadow palms rained down from the high heavens, leaving absolutely no avenue for escape.

"It is impossible! How could you wield such might?"

The Shadow Lord uttered in disbelief.

He had descended, manifesting his divine power, with the intention of capitalizing on the ensuing chaos, much like the Blood Fire Dominator had. He presumed his intermediate divine strength would be sufficient for his scheme; those shadow demons were merely instruments to mask his true objectives.

However, he soon realized he had severely misjudged Wagner's formidable power.

BOOM!

His shadow incarnation was violently struck down, dissipating into nothingness like wisps of smoke. Wagner, seizing the moment, initiated a comprehensive sweep of the shadowed regions, determined to thwart any other factions seeking to exploit the situation.

Meanwhile, in the Astral World.

Within the borders of the Shadow Divine Country.

The Shadow Lord's countenance was etched with grimness.

He had suffered the loss of a divine power incarnation.

In fact, he had teetered precariously on the brink of losing a realm, reverting to a weaker divine power state.

This was made all the more galling by the fact that his current strength was already nearing the threshold of strong divine power.

"Curses! This expedition has taken a disastrous turn. Before I could even profit from the Double Dragons War, Wagner detected my presence. What a vexing predicament."
