Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2899: 589: Shadow World Rekindled! Nightmare’s Crushing Defeat!

"Okay."
"Assemble the slaves we've seized from diverse races across the years, integrate them into the battle group, and deploy them as cannon fodder at the forefront. Lou Luo Saint King, your Golden Peng Law cultivation allows you to slip away unseen. Watch over Nora and update me on developments anytime."
"Okay."
One month afterward.
Saint Master Di Qi made his way back to the Golden Sacred Realm and hurried straight to Bo Ruo Saint King’s dwelling, his expression filled with urgency.
Bo Ruo Saint King spotted Di Qi and inquired:
"How’s the situation?"
"Saint King, I visited the Pan-Plane and pretty much grasped Nora’s circumstances. Now I’m hurrying here to aid the Sacred Realm in handling Nora."
"Excellent, spill it fast."
...Within the silver spaceship.
Levi sensed his link to Di Qi and eased up a touch.
"Looks like Bo Ruo Saint King holds no doubts. Having Di Qi as a mole, with his level 9 might, he ought to supply plenty of valuable intel."
Over the ensuing period, he planned to train while journeying.
His target lay in the Land of Oblivion of the Pan-Plane.
...
Time raced ahead, spanning two years.
Nora Calendar 1707.
The Golden Emperor Dragon and Black Emperor Dragon breathing techniques advanced successively, both seizing control of the five-layered Holy Domain power, elevating their defenses and velocities dramatically.
Levi had also come back to the Pan-Plane.
Three years onward.
Nora Calendar 1710.
The White Emperor Dragon and Nightmare Emperor Dragon surged forward once more, with the first claiming the four-layered Holy Domain and advancing to the Level 9 Middle Stage domain; the second grasping the three-layered Holy Domain.
Journeying remained eternally monotonous.
In those days, Levi now and then ventured into the Eternal Star Abyss to enlighten the dragons indoctrinated by the Brilliant Prison Dragon God, disseminating fresh doctrines!
Upon reckoning.
The Brilliant Prison Dragon God yielded a whopping 40,000 dragons for Levi, encompassing dragon offspring.
Keep in mind, after extensive breeding in the Ancient Banyan Fairyland and gathering from every corner, Levi had barely crossed 10,000 dragons.
This latest batch quintupled the dragon count outright.
Out of these, 39,000 were mixed-blood dragons, plus a batch of promising dragon descendants and sub-dragon kinds exceeding level 6 potential, adults or juveniles alike, amounting to one thousand.
This quadrupled the prior sub-dragon tally in the Dragon Palace!
Levi slotted all the ideologically reformed and reshaped dragons into the Eight Heavenly Dragon Crowds, filling out numerous divisions that were once mere figureheads.
Only a single Level 9 dragon emerged, dubbed the "Green Giant", true name Cade, sired by an Ancient Green Dragon and dammed by the Forest Green Giant’s Matriarch. Levi recalled that dragon kin colossal he had forged into a corpse demon.
Cade’s indoctrination ran too profound for quick reversal, so Levi applied the Black Emperor’s Enslavement to bind him outright, given the abundance of contract openings now.
In this way, an immense dragon battle force exceeding sixty thousand strong took shape, tasked chiefly with breeding and spawning additional dragons, while Levi supplied top-tier resources and setups to foster their development and might.
Other spoils from the Church of the Dragon God paled in comparison.
...
Two years hence.
The Blood Battle marked its 1600th anniversary, as Levi’s Green Emperor Dragon Breathing Technique leaped ahead, conquering the Triple Undying Holy Realm.
Three layers of destruction, five layers of King Kong, five layers of Invisible, four layers of Implacable, three layers of Undying, three layers of No Hidden, summing to 26 layers of Holy Domain power.
At that time, when Levi had slain the Dusk Sun God, his layers numbered 20.
"Still, confronting a Level 10 Middle Stage falls short; aiming for 60 layers of Holy Domain, I’ve barely covered under half..."
Unlike the wizard path’s accelerating cultivation strides, the knight route proved far tougher.
For wizards boasted countless ways to boost aptitudes, whereas knights lacked such edges. Truth be told, Levi’s knight aptitude had hit its pinnacle already.
He merely needed more years.
...
Nora Dark Side.
A colossal horde of Nightmare Creatures swarmed the land and seas, their vastness sufficient to stun any realm short of a Giant World.
Soon, they would claim this as their base, seeping into Nora’s tangible realm via nightmares, worldly desires, dark feelings, and the like.
Imposing silhouettes materialized amid sky and soil.
At their helm stood the Lost Monarch.
Encircling him, the Four Great Demon Lords, Cross Death Monarch, plus five more Level 10 Late Stage titans arrived with crushing presence, an intimidating array that rattled the cosmos.
The Lost Monarch declared:
"Starting now, we establish our post in the Nora Dark Side, pushing to wrap the conflict in a century and morph Nora into a fear-nurturing domain."
The Arrogance Demon Lord, shouldering a massive peak, burst into sudden guffaws:
"A hundred years? Should the opening clash today proceed flawlessly, we’ll claim Nora in just one; we’re nothing like that bungling, disorderly demon mob."
The Black Heart Demon Lord let out a shrill chuckle.
"Word is, a famed wizard lurks among them, wielding Seven Sins power. Should we slay and consume him in this fight, our own advancements could surge even higher."
The Void Demon Lord, seeming excessively hedonistic, murmured feebly:
"I fancy that distant Frost Witch more; rumor has it she bears the Frost Giant Ancestor’s lineage, hehehe, such delight already has me eager."
The Devouring Sky Demon Lord eyed his three siblings, intoned icily:
"Don’t say I didn’t warn you—Edmund’s power runs deep; even lions strike fully at rabbits. Underestimate him and botch the campaign, and mockery from all sides awaits."
The Arrogance Demon Lord scoffed:
"Shame our Seven Demon Lords dispatched only four; had the Seven Sins converged, barring Level 11 foes, we’d crush anyone effortlessly!"
The Seven Deadly Sins power birthed seven Demon Lords within the Nightmare, all at Level 10 Late Stage potency. From antiquity, they shared tight bonds. Due to particular causes, three Demon Lords had perished or retreated into hiding. Thus, merely four joined this expedition.
