Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2884: 586: Meeting the Netherworld Ancestor, the Secret of Lifespan!

Ah yes, don't forget about the Dark Wizard Emperor, Asta.

In Nora's entire history, he stands as the sole Legendary Wizard ever divinely enthroned, who alone caused the collapse of the Dark School.

Currently serving as the Chaos City Lord, much like the emerging "Brilliant Prison Dragon God," his almost god-like strength keeps all rival powers in check, positioning him as the vital supporters of the Lord of Chaos, holding a rank surpassing even the four evil gods.

Bright Prison Divine Country.

"Curse you, Dusk Palace Master! The audacity!"

The Dragon God's furious bellow resounded through the air.

The Great Angel Commander Slaughter Emperor rushed in quickly: "My Lord, what's the matter?"

With icy tones, the Dragon God commanded, "Fetch every bit of intel on the Dusk Palace Master for me. I intend to study it thoroughly and uncover a way to wipe him out completely."

A shiver ran through Slaughter Emperor's core.

Since hearing how the Dusk Palace Master had slain Artu and Ruel one after another, thoughts of vengeance had vanished from his mind; instead, he chose to hide away quietly in the astral world.

"My Lord, shall we strike immediately? Or hold off a bit?"

"What? Are you implying I'm no match for him?"

"Absolutely not, I merely suggest awaiting the Chaos God's return to deal with this."

In the astral world, the Lord of Chaos ranks among the elite, on par with Demon Lords from the 660th layer and deeper. His involvement would ensure total success.

As his rage subsided, the Dragon God reflected on that clash. Even pouring everything into it, victory over him wasn't guaranteed.

Never mind, better to bide time.

For a deity, settling scores after a decade hardly counts as delayed.

Worst case, simply endure longer than he does!

...

Nora.

Supreme Council.

Tower of Heaven.

Accompanied by a handful of Legendary Wizards, Levi departed from the Eye of Sauron.

"Are we truly pulling back?" the Frost Witch inquired.

Levi gave a subtle nod.

"Yes, we're withdrawing, though it's a strategic fake-out. The Abyss has devised a shrewd scheme, handing the fight to Nightmare while scheming to profit from the chaos."

Mr. Silver remarked, "In that scenario, the Nightmare World could launch their initial assault on us."

"Indeed, so stay vigilant and ready, all of you."

The Frost Witch added:

"I'm curious about Levi's progress. Should we merge the Beast Master Civilization prior to the Nightmare onslaught, we'd secure 30 seats."

Right at that moment.

The council's round table materialized.

"Rest easy, it worked out." Rowling grinned.

Relief washed over Levi and the rest, prompting spontaneous applause.

"Excellent, splendid—return victorious!"

Thousand Mountains Immortal urged, "Make the journey back without incident."

Rowling replied, "I'll likely bring the Nelarayan World along... Levi's got separate arrangements and could be held up."

Levi assured, "Handle it as you see fit; the Ancient Dragon Continent remains secure, so he can relax."

"I figured Levi would pull through unscathed."

"This expedition has cemented his reputation for good."

"True, outwardly he merged just the mermaid and Beast Master civilizations, yet thanks to Levi's sway, numerous wavering civilizations might ally with us for the blood battle over the coming centuries."

Optimism brimmed within everyone for what lay ahead.

The Nora Civilization stood poised to advance leaps and bounds.

Even the formerly overlooked School of Spiritualism and School of Insects now surged into relevance, embracing an era of explosive knowledge and tech growth, eager to bridge the gap.

...

Five years onward.

Nora Calendar Year 1685, Blood Battle Year 1573.

Nelarayan.

Through Levi and his allies' relentless work, at least twelve Star Pulling Nails were embedded clockwise beneath the continent and seas, detached from the Pan-Plane, and now connecting to the dual stars' gravitational force.

Twelve azure light beams pierced toward the Land of Darkness, where a vast spatial region warped and imploded, while the Emperor of Ten Thousand Beasts, Lady Olisa, and Rowling—three Level 10 powerhouses—each shielded this realm using techniques resembling Heavenly Earth Transformation.

The Twenty-Five Sky Kings' forms patrolled across the globe, averting any mishaps. The newest among them, [Purple Lightning Sky King Ritter], had ascended just days prior.

Levi released the Black Emperor from enslavement, and the latter vowed this secret would remain buried with him forever, unspoken to any.

As moments ticked by, Levi remained as a lone sentinel in the void until the gravity channel stabilized fully, drawing Nelarayan inside.

Rowling signaled to Levi with a wave.

"Hurry back, and take care."

In her mind, she reflected that this cooperative venture had at last concluded.

She'd floated through it all, contributing little.

The Emperor of Ten Thousand Beasts and his consort also gestured in thanks.

"Gratitude once more—the Holy Dragon now serves as the new Nether Emperor and has deployed to bolster the Nora front... Many thanks, Mr. Levi."

Levi smiled back:

"Farewell for now; we'll reunite in Nora."

Whoosh! The world faded away, leaving silence in the dark.

Levi stretched with a yawn, slipping back into isolation.

"Plenty of tasks await me still."

First up: venture to the Brilliant Prison Dragon God’s Belief Land to free the Dragon Clan.

Second: journey into the Land of Oblivion seeking the Giant Tribe.

Regarding the Golden Sacred Realm, it'll have to hold off. The Golden Will's might still daunts him, so wiser to steer clear presently.

Once he hits level ten, dealing with it won't be an issue.

With the Nightmare invasion looming, delay isn't an option for long.

...

Two years passed.

Nora, West Sea.

Blue Frost Continent.

Even before the plane convergence kicked off, the Blue Frost World had merged into Nora.

The [Hand of Netherworld Prison] intervened directly, corralling Blue Frost beings into the Demiplane [Heroic Spirit Homeland], transforming them into his Undead Army.

Per the Wizard Council’s probe, the ex-Plane Sovereign Blue Frost Lord perished prior to the fusion.

For various motives, a deep-seated feud simmered between the Blue Frost Lord and the Heavenly Father, spanning years of conflict, yet in the end, his abilities fell short, resulting in his demise and vanishing.
