Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 3133: 644: Mere Abyss
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
"Hahaha, some habits are difficult to break."
"Your promotion came at a most opportune moment. The Lady of Thunder has already moved to the front lines, and the Lightning School is in dire need of a Legendary Wizard to oversee its defense. You should focus on solidifying your current realm for the time being."
"Understood."
Within the Black Dragon Territory.
Levi found himself face-to-face with the Thunder of Destruction once more.
The latter gazed upon the figure clad in white robes.
He had always foreseen great achievements for Levi.
However, he had never imagined they would reach such staggering heights!
Even as a Legendary Reincarnation himself, he felt leagues behind.
Levi inquired, "Did Sauron present you with any gifts?"
The Thunder of Destruction responded with a shake of his head.
A sigh escaped Levi's lips. "Even Sauron has his limitations."
"Indeed, the universe itself is finite; how could humanity be boundless?"
"Precisely... I have nothing further to offer you here. You should return and recuperate. These are universal Legendary spells that every Legendary Wizard ought to command. Take them and immerse yourself in their study; master them swiftly."
"Thank you, Grand Council Chairman."
...
After nearly three centuries of dedicated progression.
Nora triumphantly welcomed its inaugural Legendary Wizard since the conclusion of the war.
This new legend, inheriting the mantle of the old [Thunder of Destruction], bore the legendary profession of [Thunder Tower], held domain over the legendary demiplane [Land of Thunder Destruction], and was bestowed the legendary epithet:
[The Steeple Bathed in Lightning, Thunder that Destroys Ten Thousand Realms].
...
Not long after this momentous event.
Ge Fei, the [Thunder Fire Governor], who had long held the premier position on the Level 9 Demon Slaying List, ascended to greater heights, becoming a Legendary Wizard recognized across both the Lightning and Burning factions.
This individual was also a Legendary Reincarnation.
Driven by immense ambition, Levi was somewhat taken aback by this development.
It was common knowledge that lightning and fire elements were predisposed to ignition and combustion. Typically, dual cultivation involving fire and earth was far more prevalent, as seen with figures like Duke Rumon and Toby.
Achieving Legendary status through such a combination presented a challenge no less formidable than that faced by the Lord of Light and Shadow.
Ge Fei's legendary title was [Thunderfire Master]. It was likely an effort to bolster the somewhat diminished Lightning Faction that he chose to register under its banner. Otherwise, following the established customs of the Burning School of Thought.
Upon attaining legendary status, the convention was to adopt a title such as [xx God Witch].
The demiplane of the Thunderfire Master was known as [Hot Melt Heaven Realm], a place where thunder and fire converged, making it uninhabitable for ordinary beings, save for a few specialized thunderfire elemental spirits.
His legendary title was thus:
[The Wildfire that Melts Gold, the Spring Thunder that Illuminates the Wilderness].
Consequently.
The count of living Legendary Wizards once again reached twenty-four.
However, this was far from the final tally.
The initial cohort of Legendary Reincarnation wizards were progressively nearing the Nine Rings Perfection stage. Individuals like the Ice Sea Witch from the Dusk Squad and Molten Core Hand were on the cusp of achieving this milestone.
In the foreseeable future, these individuals were highly expected to attain legendary status.
As the Grand Council Chairman, Levi possessed intimate knowledge of the current identities of numerous Legendary Reincarnators. Thus far, the records showed zero instances of failed reincarnation retraining or promotion.
...
Within the Ancient Banyan Fairyland.
Mana voraciously absorbed the Divine Tree Power bestowed by the Golden Will, causing each of its branches and leaves to shimmer with golden radiance.
Excluding the roots, Levi meticulously divided the golden leaves into two distinct portions.
One-tenth was set aside for Mana's own advancement, while the remaining incomplete Truth Oddities were allocated to the treasury of the Ancient Dragon Continent for potential exchange.
The remaining nine-tenths were entirely designated for the Pandora Matriarch.
She was remarkably close to ascending into the ranks of top-tier powerhouses. These golden leaves were more than sufficient to propel her into the Late Stage of Level 10, or even the Peak realm of Level 10, thereby fulfilling Sauron's solemn vow.
Pandora undertook the refinement of the remaining incomplete oddities, thereby augmenting the council's treasury.
As for the duplicated entities of the Golden Ancient Tree.
Levi decisively purged their consciousness and proceeded to plant them strategically around the Sorren Continent.
These lesser oddities were officially recognized as [Golden Holy Objects] by the congress.
Throughout the intervening years, gifted individuals consistently sought out these sacred relics to aid in their cultivation practices.
A select few, blessed by fortune, even managed to acquire various fundamental laws.
Owl Flame, for instance, obtained the [Golden Elephant Law]. This significantly amplified his power attribute; it represented an advanced law derived from Earth Awakening, surpassing Levi's own Holy Image Law.
With the widespread dissemination of these sacred relics, a profound realization dawned upon everyone.
It became evident that the Grand Council Chairman had, in his quiet wisdom, eradicated the once-pernicious Golden Sacred Realm of Nora, dismantled the malevolent Golden Ancient Tree, and refined its essence into oddities to be shared with the entirety of civilization.
Such an act of peerless selflessness and pioneering initiative!
As time marched onward.
With billions of Golden Holy Objects flowing into the societal fabric.
The number of official wizards, primordial soul wizards, and Grand Wizards experienced an exponential surge, unlike anything seen before. While the society was still processing the resources acquired from the Civil War, these sacred relics demanded no such lengthy digestion. They were complete Truth Oddities, ready for immediate utilization!
When the annals of ancient history, chronicled in the Age History Book, reached the year 3900 of the Nora Calendar.
The formidable presence of Nora Great Wizards soared to an unbelievable 555, complemented by over 800 formidable beings from various clans, and more than 50 knights. With a total exceeding 1400 individuals at Level 9, they nearly claimed half of the Underworld's might.
If the preceding era was hailed as the Golden Age.
Then this current period was undeniably the Diamond Age!
Even the esteemed Dean of the Chaos School, Black Pearl Boy Garcia, astonishingly advanced to the Nine Rings Perfect realm, a feat that inspired awe.
Garcia, who had lived for over five millennia, previously lacked confidence in achieving legendary status.
Now, he would occasionally remark: "With a stroke of luck, even a relic like myself might glimpse that legendary vista, all thanks to the Grand Council Chairman, and Nora!"
As time flowed onward.
Among the common people, the Golden Holy Objects acquired an alternative moniker:
[Emperor’s Boon]
...
Meanwhile.
Abyss Layer 657.
A woman of breathtaking beauty lay sleeping on an opulent, plush bed, her eyes closed, her complexion pale – the embodiment of Eternal Sleep.
Her true form was that of a Sleep Demon.
Surrounding Eternal Sleep.
Four Sleep Demons, exuding the formidable aura of Level 10, formed a protective array. It was only through this formation that they could barely withstand the relentless duplication of Nightmares.
In stark contrast to Levi’s tranquil demeanor, reminiscent of a seasoned artist.
The Abyss was, without question, vastly inferior.
Suddenly.
Eternal Sleep's brow twitched subtly.
It detected the intrusion of an uninvited guest onto Abyss Layer 657.
The Volcano Master, once a subordinate of the late Demon Lord Surgard.
This particular demon was unknown to it.
It promptly commanded its minions to repel the intruder.
At that precise moment.
An abrupt transformation occurred.
The Volcano Master morphed into a colossal giant with a dragon's head.
Its visage bore an uncanny resemblance to the Chaos Emperor.
With a simple clap of its hands, it extinguished two Level 9 demons.
In a single stride, it reached the Sleep Demon's palace and unleashed a devastating punch.
Approximately half the might of Ancestor Levi was unleashed.
The very fabric of Layer 657's existence began to shatter, inch by agonizing inch, annihilating all in its path.
Eternal Sleep's countenance turned ashen, and it immediately instructed its four subordinates to intercept.
Its form flickered, retreating deeper into the layer.
However, the dragon-headed giant proved swifter, effortlessly bypassing the four guardians.
Its dragon claw clenched the void, and a torrent of dragon breath surged with a ferocious roar.
"Supreme Will!"
Eternal Sleep cried out.
This location was perilously close to the Abyss's innermost depths.
This cataclysmic disturbance was instantly perceived by the Supreme Will.
Indeed, a power far more terrifying than the Nightmare Will descended.
Before this overwhelming force, the dragon-headed giant seemed like a mere vessel tossed about by monstrous waves, listing precariously.
Eternal Sleep had no time for relief.
The dragon breath had already enveloped its form moments before the Supreme descended.
An intense wave of heat washed over it, causing the Demon Body to melt at an alarming rate.
Even the Four Emperors were no match for Levi, let alone this entity.
The Black Emperor Dragon Power infiltrated its very being, its toxins spreading, unleashing rampant destruction.
In an instant, Eternal Sleep was plunged into a critical state, teetering on the brink of annihilation.
Yet, the descent of the Supreme Will managed to preserve it.
Simultaneously, the dragon-headed giant also succumbed, unable to withstand the power, disintegrating into a mist of blood.
Only a resonant laughter remained.
"A mere Abyss, insignificant."
"I come and go as I please."
