Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2728: 560: Mastering Life and Death, True Immortal God! Five Legendary Dragon Species!

Levi’s Crimson Emperor Dragon has successfully advanced to the Level 9 Middle Stage.

This breakthrough officially makes him a Middle Holy Sanctuary Knight!

The Golden Emperor Dragon followed suit shortly after, reaching the Triple Heaven.

Consequently, Levi now commands the Triple Sacred Realm Power.

Even the Black Emperor Dragon is quickly approaching the Triple Heaven threshold.

Broadly speaking, the presence of the Guardian Four Dragons has ensured that

the progression of these three-dimensional breathing techniques remains remarkably fluid.

The Flame King Dragon is a member of the strength-focused Dragon Clan.

Both the Ancient Mountain Dragon and the Molten Golden Dragon are categorized under the defensive-type Dragon Clan.

Thus, Levi currently lacks a Level 9 Giant Dragon specialized in endurance and physique.

He has also begun to notice a distinct shift;

at Level 9, the secret medicines used for Knight Breathing Techniques are becoming less effective.

The reliance on these concoctions is no longer as absolute as it was before reaching Level 9.

At this stage, knights must begin to engage with the rule power of the six dimensions and the elemental domain powers.

Such advancements depend less on secret medicines and more on an individual's personal comprehension and dedicated cultivation.

Because of this, Levi prefers to spend his leisure time cultivating within the Six Holy Heavens.

In this environment, his grasp of various rule and domain powers has grown significantly deeper.

Still, his progress would undoubtedly accelerate if he could locate appropriate secret medicines.

To that end, Levi continues to gather intelligence through multiple networks.

...

Nightmare World.

Black Dragon Territory.

A massive, circular shadow descended from the crimson and black firmament.

It radiated a suffocating aura of absolute despair, gazing down with cold, serpent-like eyes.

This was the Despair Sovereign, the Snake of the End—Yermund!

The inhabitants of the Black Dragon Territory failed to notice its arrival.

As a Level 10 Strongman, its presence was simply beyond the perception of such low-level creatures.

Only the Tyrant of Horror cracked open its sleepy eyes.

It felt a crushing, terrifying aura locking onto its position.

In an instant, its world plunged into darkness.

When its vision returned, it was confronted by a colossal serpent that seemed to encircle the entire world!

The Tyrant of Horror trembled with fear.

"Despair Sovereign, what... what do you want?"

The Despair Sovereign replied with icy indifference:

"Tyrant of Horror, your true form is the Brutal Dragon, making you the ruler of this Black Dragon Territory."

"Yes."

"Who is the master pulling your strings? Is it the Pale Monarch?"

"Yes! I serve the Pale Monarch, an ancient monarch whose power is beyond measure."

"Heh, you lied... You should not attempt to deceive a Level 10 Strongman, especially me. It is clear you are hiding something! Now, reveal who ordered you to conspire against me!"

"... I never plotted against you."

"If you continue to deny it, do not blame me for being ruthless."

With those words, the Despair Sovereign prepared to employ more drastic measures.

It intended to forcibly invade the Tyrant of Horror’s mind to extract the truth.

Its intuition insisted that the origin of its Danger Perception was rooted right here.

There could be no mistake!

Suddenly, two formidable auras manifested.

One possessed the strength of a Level 10 standard.

A middle-aged man wearing white robes appeared, his eyes reflecting a deep wisdom.

Despite being a short-lived human, he carried an air of ancient experience.

Beside him stood a figure clad in black armor, holding a sword.

The moment the Despair Sovereign saw this man,

its Danger Perception flared violently.

The familiarity of the sensation caused it to recoil slightly.

The source of the threat was this very person!

It could detect the unmistakable Dragon Clan’s Aura emanating from him.

He was certainly of the Dragon Clan as well!

The Despair Sovereign coiled tightly around the Tyrant of Horror, its gaze filled with malice.

It hesitated to attack, instead demanding:

"Who are you? Why are you plotting against me?"

Levi’s thoughts raced.

He understood that when dealing with a being like the Despair Sovereign, any trace of malice or hostility would be instantly detected.

He had eventually abandoned his plans for that very reason.

However, it was too late.

The agitated Despair Sovereign had already tracked the sensation back to him.

Through the spiritual link of the Black Emperor’s Enslavement, Levi had sensed the disturbance immediately.

He had arrived promptly, accompanied by the Daydreamer.

After considering his options, Levi spoke honestly, "I did indeed collect data on you and entertained certain thoughts, but I never took action nor did I harm you... seizing my subordinate in this manner is a bit much."

The Despair Sovereign let out a mocking sneer:

"You are quite arrogant, harboring ill intent toward a Level 10 Strongman. Your ability to command a Legendary Wizard suggests you are a person of significant standing."

Since arriving in the Nightmare World, the Sovereign usually slumbered for centuries or millennia at a time.

It rarely concerned itself with external affairs.

Even if Levi was a known name in Nora or the Pan-Plane,

the Sovereign neither knew him nor felt the need to care.

Levi spoke with sincerity, "This situation has nothing to do with the Tyrant of Horror. Please release it, and we can sit down to resolve this misunderstanding through dialogue."

The Despair Sovereign mused for a moment before loosening its grip.

It had no desire to create powerful enemies without cause.

The Tyrant of Horror, visibly shaken, scrambled to hide behind Levi.

It realized that if its master’s reputation hadn't been so formidable,

its life would have surely ended today!

Levi gave a faint smile:

"I appreciate it. I am Levi. Like yourself, I am not a native of the Nightmare World, but a traveler. There is no reason for us to fight. While you are powerful, you certainly lack the means to kill me. Is it not better to remain on speaking terms?

Furthermore, I know you are being hunted by the Heavenly Father. I also have grievances with him; since the enemy of my enemy is my friend, perhaps we share common interests."

The Despair Sovereign began to shift its shape, its massive form shrinking.

Eventually, it took the form of a slender naga.

With its heightened Perception and instincts, it could tell that Levi was telling the truth.

The fact that he could speak so calmly with only a Level 9 Body proved he was no ordinary individual.
