Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 3157: 650: Swordsman Who Commands the Stars, Array Master Who Controls Thousands of Treasures!
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
Whether the Star Ancestor would place their trust in him remained unknown.
...
The year was 4330 in the Holy Brilliance Calendar.
Within the esteemed Pharmacist Association.
Triss was in the process of transferring some of her responsibilities to her colleagues. Over the years, the sheer volume of medicinal projects she had either spearheaded or contributed to was so immense that it left her coworkers in a state of awe.
She was, by all accounts, a dedicated workaholic.
"Madam, you truly exert yourself far too much," one colleague remarked.
"Hahaha, do I? I find myself feeling quite invigorated by it all. When you can genuinely enjoy every single minute and second dedicated to Pharmacy, it ceases to feel like mere work. We should all strive to emulate the Heavenly Artisan."
"Madam, may your future endeavors be that of a legendary!"
"Many thanks, I hope we shall meet again.""Do not trouble yourself with excessive worry; your success is all but assured."
The other colleagues chimed in with their well wishes one after another:
"The Nora Medicine God is none other than you!"
A gentle smile graced Triss's lips.
"I shall gladly accept everyone's auspicious wishes. Let us promise to reconvene in a hundred years!"
Returning now to the Ancient Dragon Continent.
Inside the Witch’s Family abode, Triss indulged in a cleansing bath and changed into fresh attire, effectively washing away the day's fatigue.
Gazing into the depths of the Klein Crystal Ball.
Her spiritual force had already ascended to an impressive 74,000.
Along her journey, she had successfully refined the Three-Water Sequence, the Sea Country Series, and the Five Poison Series. Furthermore, she had later crafted five enhanced Glorious Sun-Grade poisons, representing an upgraded iteration of the Five Poisons.
The essential ingredients for all these creations were sourced directly from the perilous Nightmare World.
She had entered this world in the year 404 of the Ancient Sacred Radiance Calendar.
"So, I am currently 5,340 years old."
Her innate talent in her early stages was not exactly of the highest caliber; however, through sheer perseverance and the invaluable assistance of the organization, she had managed to rise against considerable odds. In her unwavering devotion to the pursuit of medicinal arts, she had, regrettably, expended a significant amount of time.
Yet, with the crucial support of the Thousand Mountains Immortal, she had still managed to reach the legendary threshold at a pace that exceeded even her own expectations. After all, with the advent of the Thousand-Year Potion, the actual Lifespan upper limit for those belonging to the Nora Nine Rings had been extended to an impressive seven thousand years; she still possessed ample time.
"The moment has arrived."
Within the confines of the Triss Wizard Tower.
There remained three figures on the brink of death.
Thousand Feet, Thousand Thorns, and the Thousand-Pocked Poison Lord.
While she might not possess Primordial Relics, by relying on the formidable power of the Three Poison Lords, the legendary status she aimed to achieve would undoubtedly be substantial. Upon attaining legendary prowess, it would then be an opportune time to pursue even greater heights.
In both the desolate Abyss and the ethereal astral world, one could find supreme powerhouses renowned for their mastery of poisons.
"Legendary, I am coming for you—This is Triss."
...
Ten years slipped by.
Two more Wizards of the Ninth Circle achieved a breakthrough, ascending to legendary status one after the other.
These were [Father of All Things Betas] and [Golden Dreamland Ogg].
The former's chosen Legendary Profession was [Monster Editor], and he proudly stood as a Disciple of the esteemed Lady Rowling. Excluding the existence of the Green Forest Master, the Life School of Thought had finally been graced with its true second Legendary Wizard.
The latter's Legendary Profession was that of a [Mind Master]. Strictly speaking, he was affiliated with the Spirit Faction; however, the Spirit Faction remained a relatively niche pursuit, and its research areas bore a significant overlap with the Dream Faction. Consequently, after careful deliberation, the Supreme Council had seen fit to categorize him under the Dream Faction.
Should the Spirit Faction ever achieve sufficient strength and influence, it possessed the potential to establish itself as an independent Sect.
In recent years, influenced by Levi’s remarkable Spiritual Series Magic, an increasing number of Practitioners had begun to tread this path, and Golden Dreamland stood as a testament to his admiration for Levi.
However, the factor that exerted a more profound influence on his legendary breakthrough was, in fact, the formidable Mind Dragon residing in the Underworld.
The Underworld and Nora shared a close and cooperative relationship; acting purely out of respect for the Emperor, the Mind Dragon personally offered him invaluable guidance. This guidance included the bestowal of an Original Golden Qilin scale.
As a gesture of reciprocal courtesy, the Supreme Council, in turn, presented the Mind Dragon with a potent Divine Artifact.
Every wizard who successfully advanced to the legendary realm had, to a greater or lesser extent, received crucial aid from the Supreme Council; this had been an established convention since the era of the mighty Sauron.
This very reason underscored why traitors were viewed with such profound loathing.
Without the diligent efforts of the congress, numerous individuals would likely have never attained legendary status at all.
Ogg held yet another significant identity.
He was the husband of the formidable Thousand Illusion Knight.
As of this moment, Nora boasted a total of 35 Legendary Wizards.
This impressive number still accounted for more than one-third of the global elite powerhouses.
...
Within the serene Ancient Banyan Fairyland.
Upon hearing the news that Triss had entered seclusion with the intent of achieving legendary status, Elena intensified her own cultivation efforts. However, for this particular period, she found herself temporarily unable to fully immerse herself in cultivation, as her three children were on the cusp of undergoing their Tribulations.
Furthermore, their father remained deeply occupied with matters concerning the congress.
Levi harbored a strong conviction that for his three offspring, reaching the ninth level was an almost certain outcome; anything less would be a profound disappointment, failing to honor the hundred years of dedicated effort he and Elena had invested in their
"You certainly can. Though you resided in the celestial realm, the fundamental tenets of humanity have been imparted countless times by your elders—you merely require practical application. Henceforth, the direction of your lives is yours to command."
The youngest chuckled, responding, "Do not fret, Mother. Father has already presented us with numerous case studies detailing the eradication of entire lineages due to wayward disciples. We are acutely aware of the potential consequences."
Elena stated, "Upon your departure, discretion is paramount; do not divulge your true identities. Currently, the formidable adversaries from the astral plane and the Abyss harbor an intense animosity towards your father, to the extent that they fantasize about consuming him whole. Naturally, undue paranoia is unnecessary. While within Nora, your safety is assured under your father's protection. My concern is merely that you might grow complacent due to this assurance."
Elena continued her admonishments, her usual resolute and decisive demeanor replaced by a torrent of words. This profound maternal concern was an experience only truly grasped after becoming a parent. The three siblings offered nods resembling the quick pecking of chicks.
After bidding their mother farewell, they proceeded once more to the ancient banyan tree. Mana was diligently absorbing the Divine Tree Power of the Origin Divine Tree, day and night, with the singular aim of achieving level-10 proficiency as swiftly as possible.
"Lady Mana, fare thee well."
"My little ones, I bestow upon you my deepest well wishes."
As the progenitor deity of the celestial realm, Mana served as the godmother to the three siblings. The duration of her companionship with them surpassed even that of Levi, their biological father.
"And we too wish milady an expedited ascension to level-10," the youngest declared, her silver hair swirling as a sweet smile graced her lips.
"Lis, before you find a life partner, you must escort them to the Ancient Banyan Fairyland for my inspection," Mana specifically cautioned.
A faint blush crept onto the youngest's face. "Milady, that day is still quite distant."
With a man as extraordinarilly capable as their father as their benchmark, the siblings' standards were exceedingly high. Mana harbored the suspicion that no being in this entire Universe would meet their approval.
The three siblings dedicated a full seven days to bidding adieu to every dragon, every beast, and indeed, even to select flora, fauna, and venerable ancient trees within the Ancient Banyan Fairyland.
Within the somber expanse of the Universe.
This realm seemed almost ethereal, reminiscent of a fantastical dream.
"Farewell!"
The three siblings stepped forth from the confines of existence.
The heavens stretched wide, permitting the flight of birds; the oceans lay vast, allowing fish to leap.
Before the circular council table.
The Chaos Emperor's gaze momentarily shifted upwards.
"Disaster, Lost, Death!"
From the ranks of the Shadow Army gathered behind him, three mid-stage Demon King figures, each at level 10, emerged. They vanished into the Shadow Dimension, thereby becoming the personal guardians of the three siblings. Such was the might of these three Demon Emperors that the siblings could barely sense their presence.
While he did not believe in excessive indulgence, complete neglect of his children was also unthinkable. Any entity daring to cast covetous eyes upon the three siblings would be made to vanish from the mortal plane. Nora was his domain!
...
As seasons transitioned, ten more years elapsed.
Within the confines of Gondor City, the latent power of the awakening colossal beast intensified with each passing moment. Periodically, six awe-inspiring phenomena, including the Golden Peng, the Holy Image, the Giant Rhinoceros, and a serpentine manifestation, would manifest. It was common knowledge that the King of Body Refining was on the cusp of achieving legendary status. As a trailblazer on this path, his journey toward the legendary realm was inherently fraught with challenges.
On this particular day.
All six anomalous phenomena appeared concurrently, accompanied by the tumultuous surge of the Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water elemental tides. A figure, resplendent in golden light, ascended directly into the firmament, appearing as an ancient deity. With every inhalation, a torrent of golden aura, as vast as rivers, surged forth. Auroral steam billowed from the pores of the muscles across his entire body, suffusing the sky with a golden hue. The formidable Abyss Sky King Armor materialized upon his skin, resembling the hardened scales of a dragon. It responded flawlessly to his will, opening and closing as he commanded. With a single stride, he traversed to the Sorren Continent. The Blood Tai Sui Bone, the Six Saint Relics, the Ghost Wind Dominator, the Skyfire Monarch, the Master of Deep Diving, and the Earth Split Monarch, all acquired during the Nightmare War, were drawn into the vortex of the Refining Array. A world-altering anomaly erupted, reverberating across the four cardinal directions!
