Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2771: 567: Armor Unleashed, Blood Battle Against the Horde!

Equipping the Blood Battle Armor triggers an automatic compulsion that draws the focus of every demon within a hundred thousand miles, inciting them into a murderous frenzy to hunt you down. As the equipment level rises, the potency of this taunting effect will continue to intensify.

3. Devour:

Every demon consumed by the Blood Battle Armor serves as raw fuel for the [Blood Battle Spirit] residing within. This spirit’s power scales upward as the body count grows, possessing no theoretical ceiling! However, its cultivation stage cannot surpass the major realm of the armor's master. The wearer has the authority to summon the [Blood Battle Spirit] into the fray. So long as the master remains alive, the Blood Battle Spirit is immortal. Even if struck down, it can be resurrected infinitely and instantaneously, provided the armor maintains sufficient energy reserves!

4. Growth:

Despite already being a supreme treasure, the Blood Battle Armor retains the capacity for evolution. Its foundational components include the [Blood River Divine Stone], a divine artifact of the Blood Sect, and the [Demon Abyss Divine Stone], which was forged from eighty-one level 9 abyss cores and nine level-10 abyss cores. Consequently, by relentlessly devouring demonic entities, this supreme treasure can advance further, with the potential to transcend level-10 and evolve into a [Cosmic Level Treasure].

5. Sealing:

Certain special effects of this supreme treasure remain locked behind a seal. To reach its Complete Body state, the wearer must successfully hunt a level-10 demon.]

A wealth of information is revealed through the description of the supreme treasure’s special traits.

The primary effect is truly heaven-defying. Specifically, the 50% boost to spiritual power ascension is a game-changer. For Levi, the other enhancements to the six basic dimensions are minor, but this is significant. Most wizards who attempt to boost their power by burning their Spiritual Origin generally only achieve a 30% increase—take the eight-circle magic spell "Brain Burning" that I acquired, for instance. Such spells carry heavy penalties, requiring precious resources and lengthy recovery periods. Overuse can cause permanent damage to the Spiritual Origin, leading to a regression in realm or even death.

In contrast, the Blood Battle Armor grants a 50% surge at the mere cost of temporary spiritual instability. This means that with periodic use, there are no lasting consequences or damage to the Spiritual Origin. With Levi’s current spiritual foundations, this ascension pushes his power immediately beyond the threshold of the ninth-circle.

The potency of a spell is determined by three variables: the realm of spiritual power, the level of proficiency, and the amplification provided by talent or Truth Oddities.

Therefore, with the Blood Battle Armor active, the strength of his ninth-circle spells should land somewhere between the ninth-circle and the legendary rank. As he attains nine rings perfection and reaches his peak, his power might actually graze the level-10 boundary.

The second trait, Berserker, is effectively a divine skill for "Monster Gathering."

Once this is turned on, Levi no longer has to track down demons. The Blood Battle Armor forces them to seek him out instead. This makes it incredibly efficient for Levi to harvest experience points and level up his Shadow Army at high speed.

Furthermore, this rare artifact appears to be linked to the Blood River Will. The mention of the [Blood River Divine Stone] makes Levi think of the [Netherworld Mother Stone]. According to the Black Abyss Sovereign, the Blood River suffered a grievous wound at the hands of Sauron. It survived, but its power was gutted, likely because the [Blood River Divine Stone] was plundered from it.

If not for that, how could the rising Black Abyss Sovereign hope to challenge an ancient horror that has existed since time immemorial? It is highly probable that Sauron refined the [Demon Abyss Divine Stone] during his own incursions into the Abyss.

Looking at the sheer volume of treasures sacrificed to create this armor, Levi calculates that it will definitely rank among the top ten artifacts in the Pan-Plane once the seal is fully broken. However, slaying a level-10 demon is a feat currently out of his reach; he needs more time.

But that time is fast approaching. His previous clash with Yinuerde gave Levi a measure of confidence. Once his breathing technique hits level 9 late stage and he achieves nine rings perfection as a wizard, he plans to test himself against an Abyss demon from the top 200 layers.

Moreover, following Sauron’s ranking system, the [Cosmic Level Treasure] sits above the supreme treasure—a tier of equipment reserved for supreme-level entities. The prospect of the Blood Battle Armor evolving into such a legendary item fills Levi with excitement.

Finally, there is the feature that captures Levi’s attention the most.

With a sudden motion, the blood armor covering him begins to thrum and shake. A sinister crimson mist erupts from the armor's surface, billowing into the sky. The fog solidifies, taking the shape of a blood-red figure that looks exactly like Levi. Its aura is shockingly at the level 9 late stage, one minor sub-realm above Levi himself. This represents the ultimate divine skill of the Blood Battle Armor.

While this construct cannot surpass Levi by a full major realm, it can grow stronger without limit by devouring demons. Within the confines of level 9, it can close the gap toward level-10 indefinitely. It is essentially a second Levi—a duplicate theoretically capable of slaying even lesser gods.

The number of demons required for such growth is staggering, of course. In essence, Levi has gained a mindless, battle-hardened mechanical clone that exists only for war and carnage!

Eager to test its capabilities, he steps out into the world.

Nearby, a golden flash and a rainbow-hued figure are currently engaged with a level 9 middle stage Wind Demon—it is Earth Awakening and the Rainbow Sword Master. Though the Wind Demon is no match for their combined strength, killing it quickly is proving difficult.

"Both of you, move back," Levi commanded in a level voice.

The Rainbow Sword Master and Earth Awakening obeyed instantly, retreating to Levi's side. Sensing an opening, the Wind Demon tried to flee, thinking it had been spared.

Boom!

A terrifying wave of blood-colored Sword Qi tore through the air, swallowing the Wind Demon whole. The crimson knight plummeted from the heavens, dragging a vast Blood Sea behind it. Within those crimson waves, the spirits of every demon the Blood Battle Armor had ever consumed manifested as howling, malevolent ghosts.

Individually, they were weak and couldn't compare to Levi’s Shadow Dragon Group, but their numbers were overwhelming. Furthermore, like the Blood Battle Spirit itself, they were immortal as long as Levi lived, capable of reforming instantly from the Blood Sea after being dispersed. Their energy was drawn from the flesh and Demon Crystal Cores the armor had previously eaten.

In less than ten breaths, the Wind Demon was torn apart by the Blood Battle Spirit. The Blood Sea then carried the remains back to Levi. Leon rode forward, claiming the soul for his own consumption.

"Impressive. Even a Nine-Ring Perfect Wizard would struggle against it... This armor is sufficient for now. I'll let Leon have his fill first, and the Blood Battle Spirit can take the leftovers. When we descend into the Abyss, it can feast to its heart's content!"

Levi had previously thought his hoard of demon materials was quite large, but the arrival of the Blood Battle Armor had suddenly made his resources feel scarce.

Drawn by the [Berserker] effect, demons began to crawl out from every corner, their crimson eyes locked onto Levi as they charged. Standing back-to-back with the Blood Battle Spirit, Levi allowed a predatory smile to cross his face:

"Let the slaughter begin!"
