Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2778: 569: The Origins of the Nine Epochs and the Abyss!
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
Two immense shadows were cast across the Ancient Dragon Continent.
Looking upward, a patrolling knight observed two colossal dragons drifting through the air, resembling floating mountain ranges; one was a vibrant crimson, while the other was a pristine white. The fiery clouds trailing behind them created a surreal, ethereal display. Shortly after, the two massive dragons shifted their forms, transforming into two men dressed in red and white.
"Please notify the Dusk Palace Master that representatives from the Dragon descendant priory have arrived for a visit."
"Al-alright."
The young knight didn't show much alarm. Giant dragons were a common sight on the Ancient Dragon Continent; just recently, he had even shared a conversation with Mr. Ancient Mountain Dragon.
A moment later, two streaks of light crossed the sky like rainbows and landed before them. It was Levi and Elena, the latter still sporting a flushed face from a recent celebration.
Levi greeted them with a smile, asking, "What brings you two here today?"
The Lava Dragon and the Cloud Mist Dragon looked at one another before speaking. "We were curious if the Ancient Dragon Continent is still open to newcomers? Our Dragon descendant priory is interested in merging with you."
While the Dragon descendant priory lacked large numbers, their individual strength was exceptional. Boasting several primordial soul wizards, they were considered a premier wizard organization.
The integration of such significant factions required approval from the Nora Council. Levi had been informed of this possibility by the council before their arrival, so he was naturally quite welcoming of the idea.
"That is fine. However, the Ancient Dragon Continent is currently limited in size; I will need to petition the council for an additional continent first."
Even though Levi frequently utilized the Sea and Field spell on the land, the expansion could not keep pace with their growing requirements.
"There is no need for that, I have already transported the Sleeping Dragon Domain here."
Suddenly, a figure materialized high in the Sky Dome. It was the Earth Saint, effortlessly carrying a landmass that rivaled the Ancient Dragon Continent in scale, arriving with complete composure.
Elena couldn't suppress a giggle.
"Now that is what you call a true relocation," Levi thought to himself, amused.
There is an old saying that one can run from the monk but not the temple.
Yet, this logic did not apply to the Earth Saint.
He was capable of carrying the entire temple away while running!
The two dragons immediately offered a respectful salute to express their gratitude to the Earth Saint.
"I have positioned the continent in the western outer sea. The task of reconstruction is now in your hands," the Earth Saint remarked. In truth, he could have merged the two landmasses with his own power, but he refrained from interfering, knowing the Ancient Dragon Continent had its own specific development blueprints.
"We thank you, Elder."
As the legendary figure departed, the two dragons felt a wave of emotion.
They were well aware that the Earth Saint hadn't moved a whole continent for them, but rather for the sake of the Dusk Palace Master.
It was clear that joining this faction was a wise decision.
In the past, other elite wizard organizations had sought to join the Ancient Dragon Continent, but both the Nora Council and the Dusk Palace Master had declined. This continent was not a place where just anyone was permitted to settle.
However, any group associated with dragons or beasts found the process much smoother, usually gaining the Dusk Palace Master’s immediate approval.
It was no wonder rumors circulated that the Dusk Palace Master held a secret, overlooked title... "the zookeeper of the Ancient Dragon Zoo"!
"Welcome to the Ancient Dragon family."
Not long after, the two dragons led a boisterous assembly of dragon descendant wizards to settle temporarily on the adjacent Sleeping Dragon Continent.
Levi’s old friends—Alexandra, Elsie, and the Sky Dragon Wizard—were absent, however. They were currently with the Struggle Party, battling demon remnants in various territories to earn the Sun Refining Artifact.
Meanwhile, the experts of the Mechanical School were busy analyzing the Sleeping Dragon Continent’s layout. Since it would eventually merge with the Ancient Dragon Continent, it required mechanical modifications to integrate with the Star Castle Matrix.
The demon invasion of Nora had paused for the moment, and the Ancient Dragon Continent had gathered enough demon-derived materials to last for centuries. Furthermore, a steady stream of resources continued to arrive from the Nightmare World.
Taking advantage of this reprieve, the entirety of Nora—from the smallest groups to the Nora Council—was swept up in a massive reconstruction effort.
Efforts were split between repairing the broken Continent Bridges and Star Gates and constructing massive defensive arrays and barriers around coastal settlements. These precautions were meant to prevent a tragedy when the next large-scale civilization integration occurred.
In the coming era, it was expected that Grand Wizards and Legendary Wizards would frequently appear across the globe.
They raised sunken lands from the depths, fully restored the fractured crystal walls, and used world-altering spells to mend the wounds of Nora. The speed of this post-war recovery was breathtaking.
If Nora survives for another ten thousand years, future historians looking back at this age will likely be stunned by its magnificence and the phenomenon known as:
Nora Speed!
...
Two years passed.
Nora Calendar 1552, Blood Battle Year 1440.
Ancient Banyan Fairyland.
The rebuilding of the Three Realms in this region was already halfway done, exceeding even Mana's predictions. The foundations of the Three Realms were set, existing as parallel dimensions within the Ancient Banyan Fairyland—separated yet linked.
The Human World.
Beside the Small Stone Pond.
Levi sat amidst towering piles of literature and countless crystal balls, all filled with diverse knowledge and complex spell models.
He had spent this time immersed in the School of Dreams. He had already established the low and mid-tier spell sequences, though he had not yet settled on their names.
Elena appeared, clad in a gown of black gauze.
"I have finished refining the [Tide Master]; this oddity is truly remarkable. You won't believe what kind of incredible power it has granted me."
