Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2940 2940 - 597: The Fall of the Holy War (Part 2)

On the ninth floor of the Ancient Tower.

The hidden easter egg material has finally wrapped up entirely.

"Song Lun, a name so plain and unremarkable, mirroring my own mundane existence before... So the origin of the name Sauron truly stemmed from 'Magic Ring' after all."

"I figured that was his identity in this incarnation. Sauron does have a certain grandeur to it. If only I'd realized sooner, I'd have picked something even more majestic."

Levi folded the note away, gave it a final glance, and departed from the chamber. Just as anticipated, no additional diary surprises from Sauron lingered on this level.

Thus, no sanctuary erected by Sauron existed either. As for the pivotal moments in Sauron's history and the foes awaiting him ahead, Levi now grasped them fully.

It matters little anymore if Sauron lives or has perished.

Regardless, all that he bequeathed marches forward steadily along his intended path. Bridging eras from antiquity to the present, he treats the Multidimensional Plane like a grand game board, forging the Golden Era of his dreams.

Nora carries forth his essence.

...

Months slipped away with the flow of time.

Levi made his way back to the Land of Darkness, where the Dark Ancient Tower yielded yet another bountiful haul this visit.

A single supreme treasure, along with two nine-level rare treasures and forty-two additional high-caliber rare treasures; three hundred forty-six Truth Oddities, comprising two Glorious Sun-Grade, one Wind God, and one Earth God.

Moreover, he uncovered five varieties of level-nine ores, twenty-four kinds of level-6+ ores, plus four Aether Stone deposits, projected to yield trillions in output.

Wealth is indeed endless in its demands.

Seventeen types of level-6+ exotic plants, an abundance of medicinal herbs, fourteen sub-dragons, more than a hundred mixed-blood dragons—though no pure-blooded Dragon Clan crossed his path.

No further Legendary Creatures made an appearance.

Ultimately, a translucent, glowing cyan root appeared in Levi's hand, its potent herbal scent utterly captivating.

He consulted the "Divine Medicine Atlas," meticulously assembled by the Medicine God, which catalogs more than a hundred divine medicines that defy destiny or prolong life. Such divine medicines remain exceedingly scarce; to date, only these have surfaced.

The prize he claimed was [Glazed Seven-leaf Qing], an earth element divine medicine that demands no processing—direct ingestion restores 99% of wounds for fighters at level-10 or lower, restoring their vitality.

Furthermore, it grants roughly 1000 years to a person's lifespan, considered merely a bonus.

"Acquired the earth element divine medicine—only three remain to finish the collection."

Though Levi could procure divine medicines via Nora, he favored gathering them personally to avoid burdening the group, especially since he alone commands a Dark Ancient Tower. Better to reserve those divine medicines for fellow members in the organization who truly require them.

The merging process in the Black Water World presses on.

Levi chose not to interfere; instead, he activated the round table to reach out to Gargamel, delving deeper into sealing spell studies until, without realizing, a full month elapsed.

This magic sequence stands as the toughest Levi has tackled yet, drawing on comprehensive knowledge across multiple domains and a host of spells.

With this sequence finished, Levi intends to abandon further pursuits in spatial sequences. His subsequent focus will be the formidable Chaos Magic, which demands a substantial investment of time.

Upon achieving peak spiritual force, the prototype for ten-ring magic ought to take shape, paving the way for a seamless ascent to the legendary realm.

...

Two years onward.

Nora Calendar 1820.

In the Dark Deep Space, a pair of icy beams pursued each other relentlessly, punctuated now and then by "Gaga" cries, the glows manifesting as a Cold Crow and an Aurora Bird.

Ayak had ventured from home three centuries prior. It roamed freely alongside the Aurora Bird through the barren deep space, having long abandoned thoughts of the Cold-calling Bird. Provided Ayak flatters sufficiently, it's no mere sycophant—it's a sly rogue!

Along its journey, Ayak amassed a vast array of treasures, mostly frost-aligned, ample to adorn its romantic haven upon eventual return, sharing a blissful existence with the Aurora Bird.

Alas, returning home isn't in the cards. That's how they'll all learn the household crumbles without Ayak's presence!

"Ayak, I'm exhausted—shall we pause and catch our breath?"

The Aurora Bird, at just early stage level 8 power, found it hard to match Ayak's vigor, but its remarkable swiftness made the difference, prompting Ayak's agreement.

They had arrived in the midst of the Star Tomb ring at the Pan-plane Edge, surrounded by barren emptiness, barren of any valuables.

All at once, the keen-sighted Ayak detected an odd meteorite afar, standing out from the typical dark ones—this gleamed ice blue, radiating a piercing frost essence.

It drew closer and blasted the meteorite apart with a frost arrow.

Boom!

The meteorite split apart, shards scattering wildly, exposing a frozen humanoid figure inside, its form striking, face striking, dead for ages yet preserved flawlessly, save for a fissure across the brow.

Ayak instinctively detected something valuable within.

Yet hesitation gripped it, fearing the figure might revive.

"Gaga."

Ayak called upon the Aurora Bird for aid.

The charming little bird fluttered nearer and spotted the ice sculpture too.

"Shall I take a closer look for you?"

"Ga."

The little bird acted without overthinking; the Aurora descended, pulling the ice sculpture close, which slowly fractured to expose the body inside.

Deprived of its icy sheath, the body crumbled to powder in an instant, breaking down into icy crystal flecks that faded into the emptiness. A lone bead, eye-like in shape, hung motionless in the space.

"Such an odd eyeball—I have this urge to swallow it whole."

The Aurora Bird uttered suddenly, its gaze flickering with an unnatural light.

Ayak snatched it up in a flash and gulped it down ahead of time.

In that instant, the Aurora Bird shook off the trance.

"Ayak, cough it up right away—this isn't safe to eat; it just ensnared my mind. I believe this bead harbors a possessing spirit."
