Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2875: 585: Kicking Away the Brilliant Prison Dragon God! The Ferocious Might of the Six Emperor Dragons!
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
"That's entirely likely, or else, no matter how gifted the Dusk Palace Master might be, and even with Sauron's contingency from his downfall, he couldn't command such a massive horde of summoned beings. Remember, he leads tens of thousands of sixth-level summons by himself. Does that even add up? Even with spiritual force ten times greater, or a hundred times that of normals, he couldn't pull it off, could he?"
A number of Nightmare Monarchs gave nods in agreement.
"Looks like it's time to send a caution to the Shadow World. They keep pulling sneaky tricks whenever we're not watching, same as back in ancient times and right up to today."
The Lost Monarch's eyes held a profound depth, radiating a perilous vibe.
"Devouring Sky Demon Lord, head over to the Yintian Domain and consult Lady Yin Tian—she hails from the Shadow World too, so she'll understand her responsibilities."
"Fine, but what if she turns it down? Like the Mind Dragon did."
"She won't. The Mind Dragon has a way out; she doesn't."
"Okay, I'll demand some answers from the Shadow World."
While the monarchs carried on their talk, fresh news arrived.
"Report! The Dusk Palace Master has slain Artu and the Old Sea Dominator!"
Tension gripped the hall, leaving it in heavy silence.
The Ghost Alley Monarch's heart skipped a beat.
"How... how could this happen? I beat him just a few years back."
"It's circulating everywhere in the Pan-Plane, no doubt about it."
After viewing the projection, the Ghost Alley Monarch's expression paled to gray.
Its strength barely exceeds Artu's, so confronting the Dusk Palace Master at this point, it probably stands no chance...
This was terrifying; for beings like monarchs, decades flew by in an instant, yet this individual's might had transformed dramatically.
"He's turned into a serious threat now; maybe only I can handle him."
Following a prolonged quiet, the Lost Monarch finally voiced his thoughts.
"Do we summon the Grey Mist Monarch back?"
"No, let it probe the Dusk Palace Master's power first. It can't be killed anyway. Until he reaches level-10, he won't fell a level-10 mid-stage."
The Lost Monarch declared with assurance.
This came from its careful review of the projection.
....
In a certain fragment of the Cosmic Dark Side.
Grey mist surged, blanketing the heavens.
A face shaped like a human emerged, absorbing the intel it had collected.
"The Dusk Palace Master took down Artu after all; this complicates things. That blood-red treasure armor he wears is key—surely among the Pan-Plane's top ten supreme items."
The Grey Mist Monarch wavered.
It wielded an illusion tool, the Night Barrier Bead, and stood at level-10 mid-stage. Claiming zero chance to overpower the Dusk Palace Master outright would be false... though the odds were slim.
Still, with its abilities, getting slain in return by the Dusk Palace Master was out of the question.
After weighing options, it pressed onward, giving chase.
Fortune hid in peril, so it had to make the attempt, one way or another.
....
The Underworld.
The Netherworld Ancestor Hall.
The woman in grey robes immersed herself in the Mother River's pool waters, calm like an unborn child in amniotic fluid; with a gentle wave of her jade hand, a projection materialized.
The display showed Levi, clad in blood-red treasure armor, raging like a berserker as he ripped through the Divine Light around Artu, ultimately ending him.
The relic known as Blood of Multiplication, from the Primordial Presence and the Eternal Heart, eluded even Sauron's own search; it was bestowed by the Netherworld Ancestor.
Sauron claimed it without cost.
The Netherworld Ancestor hadn't foreseen Sauron forging this armor successfully. Before long, the multidimensional plane would gain yet another cosmic treasure.
....
A year passed.
Nora Calendar 1678.
Ancient Banyan Fairyland, beside the Small Stone Pond.
"It's nearly mended now; rebuilding spiritual force proves far tougher than the physical form. I still must reach legendary rank and cut back on triggering the Bloodbath Effect."
Levi rested his hand upon the Klein Crystal Ball.
[Spiritual force: 63233/75000]
....
In the recent years, he had refined assorted oddities. Chiefly, after processing those sequence artifacts, his spiritual force cap fell short of a clean 74,000, sparking his OCD; thus, he refined more, boosting it to 75,000.
These oddities ranked low in quality, mostly Morning Star and Bright Moon varieties, clustered in the Earth and Ocean Factions, yielding four kinds of fitting special spiritual creatures for nurturing.
They included: flower fairies, grass immortals, tree spirits, and mica.
Their roles matched their titles closely: flower fairies focused on pollination, grass immortals shone in fertilization, tree spirits handled soil aeration, and mica managed irrigation. This brought greater vibrancy to the Water Curtain Cave in the Human World, teeming with the active forms of his unique spiritual creatures.
Levi wasn't just a solo fighting force.
He doubled as an efficient building crew!
This led to his spiritual force growing by a thousand points across those years. Ahead lay a need to steady it before tackling additional oddities.
Next, he drew forth volumes like "Spiritual Journey," "Spirit Analysis," and started delving in, extracting a level-9 Heart-stealing Demon Crystal Core.
He had developed five primary sequential magic spells: Elemental Magnetism, Light, Poison, Metal, Nightmare; the sixth stayed distinct, selected from the Spirit Faction.
This school proved even more obscure than the School of Dreams.
To date, it boasted just a single Ninth-Circle Wizard.
Yet this faction aided greatly in fending off Nightmare incursions, as well as future threats from the astral world and Mind Flayers.
Spirit formed the vital essence of every living being.
Within the Nora Wan Clan, experts in spirit-type spells were rare yet displayed fearsome personal might.
Spells such as "Psychological Suggestion," "Mind Control," "Mind Shock," and similar operated as unseen lethal strikes.
Naturally, the supreme master in this field was none other than the Mind Dragon, one of the five legendary dragons. Gaining its guidance would let Levi master the full spell lineup in a decade. Regrettably, it aligned with the Nightmare Camp.
