Years passed, and three years went by.
Nora Calendar 1560, Bloody Battle 1448.
Darkness Zone.
Within the Demon camp.
The Wind Demon Lord Pazuzu gazed at Nora in the distance, his expression somewhat gloomy. He summoned his subordinates and asked, "Has the Water Demon Lord Suk arrived yet?"
"Lord, not yet."
"What's going on? Didn't he set out long ago?"
"It's said that he was intercepted by a powerful enemy on the way and is desperately trying to get here."
"Which powerful enemy?"
"Your subordinate doesn't know."
After the subordinate left, the Shadow Demon Queen approached and said, "The Succubus Queen was severely injured by Eamon some time ago and is now in seclusion to recover. Once her injuries are healed, she can participate in the Bloody Battle."
"When will she recover?"
"It's unclear, only that it's a serious injury."
"Bullshit, how could she be seriously injured with her strength?"
"That's what I questioned her about, but she retorted by asking me how the Earth Demon Lord could have died with his strength?"
The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive. Pazuzu continued to ask:
"Is the Darkness Spider Mother coming?"
"It's said that she was injured at her origin by Eamon and is recuperating."
"What about the Corruption Monarch?"
"Also burned."
"The Myriad Poisons Overlord was also burned, right?"
"Not exactly. It's said that he was caught in the crossfire of an Eleventh Ring battle and nearly lost his life. He's now fully recuperating in the Abyss layer. He told us to hold on for a while, and when he wakes up from a nap, his strength will be seventy or eighty percent recovered, and he'll join the Bloody Battle."
"Damn it, every time he sleeps, it's for ten thousand years! By the time he wakes up, Nora will have been destroyed by us. What use will he be then?"
Pazuzu calmed himself and asked in a cold voice:
"What about Eternal Slumber? He wasn't affected by the last great battle, was he?"
"He's still competing with the Lost Monarch in the Nightmare World."
"A thousand years, and they still haven't determined a winner?"
"He says they are evenly matched and inseparable."
"What about the Lord of Fallen Stars? Tell him that if he participates in the war, he doesn't need to fight on the front lines. He only needs to provide astrological services in the rear to interfere with the astrological trajectories of Nora's Legendary Wizards. There's no danger to his life."
"It's said that he's at a critical moment in breaking through to the Eleventh Ring. If he succeeds, the Abyss will have a new Chaos Attendant."
Pazuzu's expression grew increasingly ugly. Finally, thinking of something, he asked, "Has Surgard been found?"
"No, the last time he was seen was when he fought the Twilight Sun God Atu outside the Multiverse. After both were injured, they disappeared without a trace."
"Damn it!"
"Commander-in-Chief, what does 'damn it' mean?"
Multiverse, a place far from Nora.
"Gaa gaa gaa!"
A blue crow exuding frost aura streaked across the darkness.
Unknowingly, A'Ya had been away from home for nearly a century. After becoming a Ninth Ring symbiotic creature, its journey had indeed become much smoother.
It certainly can't beat any Ninth Ring, but ordinary Ninth Rings can't catch its slippery self at all, and even if it's weak, it can still beat Eighth Rings.
This is the godlike A'Ya!
Once, with a Sixth Ring body, it reverse-slayed an Eighth Ring!
Today, with a Ninth Ring body, it rivals an Eighth Ring!
It's all about being different.
A'Ya's trip is determined to be a thorough one; it wants to fly out of the Multiverse, anyway, its speed is far better than before.
Along the way, it collected many rare things to decorate its love nest. Although the round-faced girl was only focused on playing mahjong, cruelly watching it leave, A'Ya still has her in its heart.
This day.
A'Ya traveled to a world in a wilderness and saw a group of weirdos dressed like shamans, each with Seventh Ring Strength. They had captured a small bird that looked like a peacock and a phoenix, with an ice-blue color.
The bird's long tail feathers emitted colorful luster, combined with gushing ice crystal particles, as beautiful as aurora. A'Ya remembered that when its master was reading its compiled "Fantastic Creature Illustrated Book," it seemed to have mentioned it.
This little bird is called... Aurora Bird!
It seems to be a legendary creature, just like the round-faced girl.
At this moment, A'Ya knew that its heart was pounding.
Now, it's showtime.
Let this group of ugly things see its strength!
Hero saves beauty!
Whoosh! A'Ya turned into a blue light, transformed into a blue divine bird with a wingspan of more than ten thousand meters, spit out cold air, three parts brewed into elemental sword Qi, and the remaining seven parts all turned into a gorgeous ice ladder leading to the ice-blue little bird.
The sword Qi ruthlessly harvested the lives of these people, except for a leading weirdo who held a scarlet withered root Magic Array, emitting extraordinary treasure light.
With a wave of his hand, he released a swarm of blazing golden crow phantoms emitting high temperatures, shouting:
"Blue-haired dead bird! See the power of my Divine Crow Wood Staff!"
A'Ya disdained it! Little trick! Got some skills!
This staff is not bad, it should belong to me, A'Ya!
After taking it, put it in the love nest to keep warm.
After another thrilling battle, A'Ya successfully froze the weirdo and shattered him all over the ground with a casual touch. A'Ya also picked up the scarlet withered root staff and found that it seemed to be sprouting new buds.
A'Ya gracefully slid down the ladder and landed in front of the ice-blue little bird, which seemed to be at the peak of the Seventh Ring. Its phoenix eyes were closed tightly, twitching non-stop, and foaming at the mouth. It looked like it had been drugged.
A'Ya didn't care and threw a bunch of herbs into its mouth. Maybe it was just luck, but the little bird miraculously woke up.
"Did you save me?"
"Ga ga ga."
"Thank you, my name is Na Sha."
"Ga ga ga ga."
"You want me to go with you?" A'Ya nodded.
"Well, the outside world is too dangerous. I almost lost my life. Fortunately, I met you. You will protect me, right?" The ice-blue little bird's eyelashes trembled, and it asked with an incredibly pitiful look.
A'Ya patted its chest with its wings, full of confidence.
"Ga ga ga ga!"
Below the Ninth Ring, it is invincible.
The little bird was also a rookie who had just come out of the nest, and was actually fooled by A'Ya. Without much thought, it decided to travel with A'Ya.
The world is so big, and it is very lonely.
Coincidentally, so is A'Ya.
Nora.
Ancient Dragon Continent, Destruction Heaven of the Six Saint Heavens.
On the crimson throne, Levi wore a serious expression, studying something.
The key to constructing Knight Cards lies in the Six Saint Heavens.
It sits high above all Knights, similar to the dimension where the Primal Chaos Holy Emperor resides, or the Barbarian Ancestor Hall where the Will of Azure Sky dwells.
The Holy Emperor can transform into a Dao Scripture and influence other Qi Sect cultivators through this dimension. Levi believes that the Six Saint Heavens must also possess this capability.
This is the ultimate destination for Knights, a sacred ground! And he is the Lord of Heaven, governing the six heavens and all their myriad manifestations.
Within the Six Saint Heavens, he wants to artificially create six "Knight Gods" to convert his power. Then, he will connect every Knight who cultivates this method, forming a complex faith network similar to the Barbarian Race's totem system, ultimately converging in the Six Saint Heavens.
In other words, Knight Cards are different from Myriad Forms Magic Cards; they are more open source! Every cultivator of Knight Cards can draw upon Levi's power, as well as the power of other stronger Knights, such as the Twilight Eighteen Knights.
In his previous life, this was called "inviting gods."
Through this system, Levi can establish a closer connection with all Knights. He will truly stand in a God's-eye view, overlooking everyone like the Will of Azure Sky… He is not a god, but he surpasses gods.
And creating a "Knight God" similar to a totem also requires careful consideration.
Through consulting the Will of Azure Sky and other Legendary Wizards, combined with the numerous materials and Knowledge about the Star Realm that Levi has collected and verified,
he has summarized the following steps: First.
He needs to compile a scripture of faith about Knights.
All Churches have their own doctrines, often very strict, all to serve the true gods. But Levi's scripture does not need to be so rigid.
Essentially, he does not need the faith of these Knights to cultivate or sustain himself. He wants to enable the Knights to fight with external power.
Therefore, this doctrine only needs to ensure that the Knights sincerely believe in the god created by Levi; anything else is optional.
The Will of Azure Sky wove a "Ancestor God Ballad", a nursery rhyme that flows like genes in the blood of all Barbarians.
According to Levi's three years of field research, in the Azure Sky Continent, from three-year-old children to Weapon Masters, everyone can sing this ballad.
Barbarian parents soothe their children, Barbarian soldiers go to battle… even when Barbarian men and women are in love, many will sing this ballad.
It can be said that it is used in all scenarios, by everyone.
Even the Winged Tiger Barbarian King among the Barbarians isolated in the Dark Ancient Tower for hundreds of thousands of years has mastered the "Ancestor God Ballad" without instruction, awakening it to summon the Barbarian Ancestor projection.
Levi really admires the Will of Azure Sky. Through countless years of management, he has completely shaped himself into the Barbarian Ancestor, the Barbarian God, even the sky of the Barbarian Race!
It is very simple to make Knights believe in something.
There is something that, to some extent, is the spiritual sustenance of Knight families in the Era of Dharma Decline. That is their family emblem, which is the [Lord of Blood Tribulation] represented by the breathing technique. This is readily available, and what Levi needs to do is to collect the Lords of Tribulation from all families and compile them into a comprehensive scripture.
Then, according to the six dimensions, categorize them, and select a representative from each dimension. Let the representative serve as its general outline, overseeing the overall situation. Believing in any of the images below it is equivalent to believing in the representative.
Thus, a layered faith relationship similar to the Barbarian Race's totem path is formed, opening up the power channels between the upper and lower levels. Obviously, this representative is the [Six Emperors Dragon] in Levi's body. As for the specific form of the scripture, Levi plans to make it more convenient, faster, simpler, and more efficient… a Visualization Diagram!
Second.
After selecting the "god" to be worshiped and preparing the scripture, the next step is to truly shape a "Divine Body" to collect the power of faith.
The Divine Body can be a specific living being. For example, the Saints of the Church are essentially Divine Bodies cultivated by the gods in the human world to facilitate the collection of faith and the descent of incarnations.
The Divine Body can also be inanimate objects. The statues and sculptures of many Churches are not just symbolic. When believers prostrate themselves and worship, their power of faith is stored in them for the gods to collect and enjoy.
However, cultivating a Divine Body requires the use of divine objects.
Fortunately, Levi has them. The Will of Azure Sky said that the Divinity Crystal of angels is a superior material for shaping a Divine Body. Of course, there are even more exquisite ones, such as the Divinity Crystal left behind by the death of gods. But obviously, Levi cannot obtain them now.
Levi has accumulated a lot of Divinity Crystals from his travels in the Ancient Tower and the Multiverse. Although he has exchanged a batch, the remaining ones are still enough for him to shape six "bodies."
He plans to cast six Emperor Dragon statues out of superior materials and display them in the Twilight Temple square. These will be the Divine Bodies.
After completing these two major steps, the next step is to gradually transform the Knights of the Twilight Temple and popularize the Six Emperors faith.
Time flies, and seventeen years pass in the blink of an eye.
Nora Calendar 1577, Bloody Battle 1465.
With the gradual victory of the Nora battlefield, the number of demons remaining in the restricted area is visibly decreasing. The Abyss no longer wastes its efforts and troops on futile attacks, but plans to accumulate a larger and more violent wave to defeat Nora in one fell swoop.
This prompted many wizards, striving for Battle Merit, to open up a second battlefield. Subsequently, the Nora Council also announced that wizards and myriad races hunting demons in Hell would also be counted within the Battle Merit system. This move enlivened Hell.
The most beneficial outcome of this was for the Purgatory Demon Sword and many wizards of the Death School; Hell was like a second home to them.
Vast armies, led by battle groups, stormed into the worlds of the undead and demons. Under the constraints of the Netherworld, Hell naturally behaved itself. The wizards hunted demons while collecting resources from Hell.
Meanwhile,
The terrifying demonic energy brought about by nearly fifteen hundred years of Bloody Battle, through the transformation of oasis creatures, doubled the overall elemental energy density of Nora. It should be noted that Nora's volume is constantly expanding. Local areas have even increased several times over.
What affects the speed of a wizard's cultivation is nothing more than two points:
First, internal factors related to the individual, such as talent and effort.
Second, external factors such as environment and resources.
The density of elemental energy affects the advancement speed of the entire civilization. Two thousand years ago, a Child of Chaos becoming a formal wizard was a sensational event in some remote areas.
But now, as long as one has wizarding talent, even a Child of Chaos, unless extremely unlucky or lacking in effort, is guaranteed a First Ring cultivation as a baseline. If one is a diligent grinder or has a bit of luck, advancing to Second Ring is not a problem.
As for those with three elemental affinities, striving to reach Third Ring and becoming a mid-level wizard is commonplace. If one were to use even the lowest-grade Earth rare object to improve their talent, the difficulty could be reduced significantly, with the hope of further advancing to Fourth Ring or Fifth Ring. Some with good fortune have even advanced to Primal Soul.
As for dual elemental affinity, before the Bloody Battle, it was considered a minor genius. Looking at the wizarding community, they were one in a hundred. But in the past two thousand years, those with such talent advancing to Primal Soul are numerous.
Of course, in addition to the improvement of elemental energy, the price and cost of various potions have decreased and become more widespread due to technological breakthroughs and the dividends brought by the war, which is also a key factor for advancing to Primal Soul.
As for Children of Element and the top geniuses above them, they are absolute geniuses in any era, but the new era of Nora is constantly raising their ceiling, allowing those who could only reach Sixth Ring to now have the hope of reaching Seventh Ring or even Eighth Ring!
In this era, oasis creatures are just the tip of the iceberg. Thanks to the efforts of the Nora Council and countless capable individuals, especially the "foreign aid" from demons, the number of wizards is still steadily increasing despite the attrition of war.
At the same time, Knight cultivators are no longer limited to the Ancient Dragon Continent. With the Twilight Temple as their sacred ground and headquarters, new temples are springing up like mushrooms in the New Continent and the Four Seas Land. The number of Knights far exceeds that of the past. From a niche cultivation method, it has become a relatively popular path.
Initially, many people questioned the Knights, worried that this method, which relies on Bloodline Essence and even Bloodline Crystal, would lead to fewer and fewer transcendent creatures. Eventually, the Knights would be unable to develop due to being trapped in a vicious cycle. But today, the Twilight Temple has responded to all doubts with its current achievements.
As the Will of Azure Sky said, "Bloodlines" are not immutable; they can evolve themselves through generations of reproduction and absorption of external energy. Sometimes, it may seem that bloodlines are being diluted layer by layer, but in reality, from a God's-eye view, the total amount of bloodline is constantly growing.
Therefore, the Ancient Dragon Continent established Giant Beast Paradise, built breeding bases on hundreds of New Continents, and cooperated with the Spiritism School to artificially provide breeding to accelerate the division and proliferation of bloodlines. This forms a perfect collaboration between Knights and bloodlines, a harmonious coexistence between humans and nature; sustainability is the essence! This day.
Knights from all over the world flocked to the Ancient Dragon Continent.
Today is the Twilight Hall Master's two thousandth birthday, and also the most important day for Knights. Not long ago, Extremity Knight Levi announced that the card system related to Knights has been perfected and is scheduled to hold a press conference today.
Twilight Temple Square was crowded with people.
The Eighteen Riders, who had been training outside, all returned. They surrounded the Sky Dome, exuding a powerful aura, their eyes firm and steady.
Behind them, eighteen mythical beast phantoms stood silently, like ancient guardian deities.
The most dazzling was undoubtedly the Fire Dragon Knight, whose true form was thousands of feet tall. In recent years, the influence of his bloodline from the Fire Giant King has become increasingly apparent.
Now, the Fire Dragon Knight, who is less than two thousand years old, took the lead in breaking through not long ago, becoming the second Eighth Level Knight after Levi! "So strong, is this the father of the two supernovas?"
"Too fierce, it feels like one slap could kill an Eighth Level Demon."
Among the crowd, an absolutely muscular man like a demon also stood still. He was also hundreds of feet tall. He is currently in the mid-stage of Sixth Ring cultivation, but he has the strength to kill late-stage Sixth Ring demons. It was Giant Spirit God Wizard Sun Chasing Knight Abel.
His body flows with the powerful bloodlines of the Sun Chasing Dragon, the Fire Giant King, and the Nine Dragons Emperor. At the same time, he possesses Earth and Fire dual affinity elements and the body refinement physique [Overlord Carrying Cauldron]. Therefore, he cultivated methods such as the Nine-Headed Hell Serpent Body Refinement Method, the Thousand-Eyed Titan Body Refinement Technique, and the Amethyst Body Refinement Method.
He intends to integrate these to create his own body refinement method. Gandalf also taught him the Dragon Serpent Suppressing Prison God Uniting Method for his reference.
Not long after.
Another burly figure came over and stopped beside Abel, asking:
"Brother, is it about to start?"
"Soon, I'm a little excited at the thought of being able to use cards in the future. I've been coveting them for a long time." Abel laughed.
The one who came was the Wind Fire Dragon Wizard Dragon Flame Knight Lei Long. He is more than three hundred years younger than Abel, and is now less than three hundred years old. He has also advanced to the Sixth Ring Wizard realm, and is of the Wind and Fire dual faction.
Now his Knight is at the peak of Fifth Level. It is not that he does not have the ability to break through, but Lei Long has great ambitions and wants to go further on the basis of the Mythic level.
Of course, the Fire Dragon Knight and Louise also support this. Lei Long has been precocious since childhood and does not need others to worry about him. He is organized in everything and extremely reliable. Since he made this decision, he must be confident.
Not long after, the descendants of the Eighteen Riders arrived one after another.
Wind Chasing Witch Jade Phoenix Knight Sai Fa, wearing silver light armor and looking heroic, possesses the Jade Qilin bloodline and the Wind Child of Element talent. At the age of 650, she is already a Sixth Level mid-stage cultivator of both Knight and Wizard, and is also a supernova.
Hoder, the son of the Ash Knight, possesses the Star Butterfly Dragon bloodline and is at the mid-stage of Sixth Level. He is also a top genius on the Demon Slaying Ranking. Because of his top-notch healing abilities, he now leads a [Star Dragon Rescue Team] independently, responsible for logistics work.
The daughter of the Golden Lion Knight, the Peacock Knight Lai Ya, possesses her mother's peacock bloodline. At just over 1100 years old, she has already reached the peak of Sixth Ring. Currently, she is preparing evolution materials, ready to make up for her mother's regrets and create a new myth-level bloodline, truly surpassing her predecessor.
Then there's her younger brother, Lai De, with dual-system affinity and the special talent of the Frost Faction. He is now a Sixth Ring Frost School professor, also a genius. Behind Lai De, there is also a timid-looking little Knight. His name is Lai Ji, and he is eight years old. He possesses the mythical Zou Wu bloodline and has been practicing breathing techniques for two and a half years...
If the old Golden Lion were alive in heaven, seeing the Golden Lion family so prosperous, he would surely rest in peace.
The Moon Knight Pu Lai De from the Dark Moon Knight family, and the Shadow Chasing Witch, Phantom Knight Mo La Na, have also arrived. These siblings both inherited the early Dark Moon bloodline and are now mid-Sixth Ring in strength. The latter is also a disciple of the Shadow Queen Aya and a senior Sixth Ring Witch, both with bright futures.
They also have a younger brother, the Void Knight Fei Er Pu, who inherited the mythical Heavenly Dog Bloodline. He is at a critical moment of breakthrough and has not yet arrived.
And so on, not to list them all.
As time changes, as the first generation veterans of the Twilight Temple gradually retire, these emerging bloodlines are taking center stage with the tide of the times.
They are even more outstanding and are not satisfied with the empire built by their fathers, but are determined to forge ahead. They strive for the glory and growth of their families and organizations.
Many of them practice both Wizardry and Knighthood, or even the dual cultivation path of Knighthood and Qi Sect. Some even want to cultivate all three paths. Regardless of future achievements, this courage to try is commendable.
Fourteen kinds of mythical bloodlines are just the beginning.
Those stars high above all living beings in the Primordial Era, those ancient Star Gods, are now continuing their existence and revitalizing in a new way.
The torch is passed on, and the bloodline continues. One day, the Knights will return like their ancestors, pulling the high and mighty beings down from the Altar, ushering in Twilight. When Dawn breaks, new stars will illuminate the Darkness Zone.
This is the Twilight Temple!
This is the Twilight Knight!
More and more people gathered, and countless figures with vigorous Qi and blood gathered in the Ancient Dragon Continent. A streamer streaked across the Sky, and a Ninth Ring senior aura descended. He was handsome and imposing, wearing golden armor.
Who else could it be but Duke Loomon?
He looked triumphant, with a cigar in his mouth, and a giant beast phantom that seemed to be entirely composed of light faintly appeared behind him, like a dragon and an insect, with star-ring-like spots surrounding its body. After more than four hundred years, the Halo Knight finally advanced to Sixth Ring.
With the resources and convenience brought by his identity as a reincarnated Legendary Wizard, this speed is naturally not fast.
There was no other way. It was too difficult to advance again at the mythical level. He had never thought of cultivating the path of the Knight before. Therefore, he did not prepare when he was a Legend, otherwise, he would have prepared a Divinity Crystal in advance.
So he could only take the path of quantity like ordinary Knights, collecting several miscellaneous legend-level Bloodline Crystals, and he had just successfully evolved yesterday. He even named this super-mythical bloodline Chronal Dragon.
The Chronal Dragon excels in speed and faintly has the power to control time. Its potential is enormous. Even Duke Loomon, whose previous life was a Legendary Wizard, was a little excited when he discovered this bloodline.
He was confident in returning to the Legendary Wizard realm, but he was still unsure about going further. But with the Chronal Dragon bloodline, there was some hope. In this life, he had given himself double insurance.
Therefore, his attitude towards Knight cultivation has changed from the original Buddhist-like casualness to daily practice, and its importance is no less than Wizard cultivation. Especially after seeing how awesome Levi was, he was even more looking forward to it.
"I can use Knight Cards soon, so I'll join in the fun."
He mingled in the crowd, waiting for the press conference to begin.
Time passed by.
Before long, anomalies appeared in the Sky Dome. Six layers of overlapping world phantoms appeared, and the Six Saint Heavens descended.
Then, a giant dragon figure emitting a supreme aura that made Duke Loomon look sideways flew out of each world. To get a Chronal Dragon, he had already broken the pot and sold the iron, consuming a lot of legendary heritage.
And Levi had six of them! He was indeed a pervert! Duke Loomon was ashamed of himself.
Boom! Boom! Boom! On the Twilight Temple Square, the giant dragon figures landed in the center, forming a circle. On closer inspection, they were clearly six lifelike dragon statues.
Each one was filled with precious light, exuding great majesty, and even the dragon eyes could move. A figure leisurely descended on the head of the Red Emperor Dragon statue, and it was Levi.
He said loudly: "Today, I create Knight Cards for the Twilight Temple and all the Knights in the world to use. I hope you will continue to abide by the virtues of Knighthood. Work hard in cultivation, be brave and fearless, protect the Ancient Dragon Continent, and protect Nora!
These are the Six Emperors statues, namely the Crimson Emperor, the Golden Emperor, the Black Emperor, the White Emperor, the Azure Emperor, and the Nightmare Emperor! They represent the six dimensions of our Knights and are the core of the path of cultivating Knight Cards. To master the cards, you must first observe the statues, comprehend their charm, store it in your mind, and deepen and consolidate it from time to time before you can succeed."
With a wave of his hand, countless rays of light flew out from the statues and landed in the palms of all the Knights present, condensing into clusters of misty light spots. Duke Loomon crushed one, and he felt a surge of information pouring into his mind. Then he murmured:
""Myriad Beasts Visualization Diagram", "Six Emperors Visualization Diagram", "Myriad Beasts Card Production Compendium", "Myriad Battles Card Production Compendium", "Six Emperors Card Production Compendium"...
So that's how it is. Relying on the path of faith to establish a transmission system, thereby connecting to the source of power, so as to stimulate and use the power of the cards. Not bad, not bad. After creating the Fourth Art of Wizards, my leader has created the Second Art of Knights."
The First Art of Knights is Taming. It has already been popularized in the Twilight Temple. To become a qualified Knight, one must be a Taming Master. This way, they can independently cultivate Knight mounts and Bloodline Essence, the two essential items.
The Second Art is card making.
Without Levi saying more, when he told the Knights the principles and methods of card making through the statues, everyone already understood what to do. Everyone was extremely excited, lamenting the arrival of a new era for Knights.
"Thank you, Leader, for teaching the method!"
"Thank you, Hall Master!"
"May the Six Emperors Dragon be above!"
After thanking Levi, the crowd, who had been eagerly awaiting this moment, sincerely began to prostrate themselves before the statue of the Six Emperors Dragon, observing and revering it! Sauron Daily, Bloody Battle Daily, Nora Daily, and many other media outlets followed and reported on this epoch-making event for the Knights.
In the days that followed, terms like "Visualization Diagram," "Myriad Battle Card," and "Emperor Dragon God" became keywords on everyone's lips.
One month later.
The Duke Loomon's mansion.
With his wisdom and talent, he had already grasped the knowledge of card creation. He closed his eyes, pondering and quietly contemplating the mysteries of card creation.
The Knight Card System is divided into the "Three Realms, Four Levels, and Six Paths."
Three Realms: Myriad Beasts, Myriad Battles, Six Emperors.
Four Levels: Non-Legendary, Legendary, Mythical, Supreme.
Six Paths: Strength, Speed, Defense, Perception, Endurance, Constitution.
Similar to the different schools of Wizard's Myriad Forms Magic Card, so far, each path of Knight can only visualize and create cards of their own path, and cannot create cards across paths. After all, Levi himself has not solved the problem of the fusion of the Six Paths.
Myriad Beasts refers to all the Lords of Blood Tribulation in the existing Knight Breathing Method. They are governed by the Six Emperors Dragon, the masters of the Six Saint Heavens, and are contained within them.
Therefore, visualizing the Myriad Beasts and the Six Emperors is essentially the same. Eventually, they will all converge within the Six Saint Heavens. However, the Six Emperors are at too high a level, and ordinary Knights find it difficult to visualize them. Therefore, Levi's advice to Knights below the Sixth Ring is to visualize the Myriad Beasts.
By visualizing the Myriad Beasts Diagram, one can create a wide variety of [Bloodline Cards], which can be specifically divided into [Mystical Power Card], [Dharma Form Card], [Divine Weapon Card], [True Armor Card], etc. Mystical Power is a spell-like ability, a natural talent.
Taking the Bluebird Visualization Diagram as an example, each time one comprehends a Visualization Diagram, it is equivalent to establishing a faith connection with the [Bluebird Knight], the owner of the Bluebird Breathing Method. Then, through the transformation of the Six Saint Heavens, and with the consent of the Bluebird Knight, a small portion of their power can be drawn upon to activate the cards related to the [Bluebird] that they create.
In essence, this is a sharing system. Levi relies on the Six Saint Heavens and the Six Emperors Dragon to reside behind the scenes and manage this system. Every Knight he pulls into the sharing network can become a sharer.
This is the power of the Six Saint Heavens! It is also the unique aspect of the Bloodline Path!
When more and more Knights step into the Ninth Ring and join the "Six Saint Heavens" in the future, this "Heavenly Court" system, like the Shinto system of his previous life, will become more complete. From the Lord of the Heavenly Court to the Six Dings and Six Jias, and the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, everything can be set up.
As for the Myriad Battle Card, it is an appendage of the Myriad Beasts Card, a [Battle Skill Card], which is an extra. The principle is similar to the previous one, so there is no need to say more.
After understanding all of this, Duke Loomon was very surprised.
This is definitely a very significant invention. If it can be used in the Wizard system, it will greatly promote the Nora Civilization.
It's just a pity that everything else is fine.
Compared to Knights, Wizards lack the crucial [Six Saint Heavens].
This is the core and brain of the card system. The power of faith is just a transmission channel. It can be replaced with other forms.
Duke Loomon remembered that when he traveled far in his previous life, he had seen a subversive idea in the notes of a spellcaster from an unknown civilization:
A psionic interconnected network! Or rather... a magic net! Using the world as a canvas, with every spellcaster living in it as a node, and with some treasure or powerful existence that can carry countless knowledge and spells as the core, to build a giant network for all people to share knowledge, spells, and even energy.
Spellcasters can establish connections through the internet, and based on their own cultivation, borrow the power of others by paying the corresponding price.
In theory, as long as the price paid is sufficient, a First Ring Wizard can cast a Legendary spell through the psionic interconnected network.
This idea is extremely crazy. However, Levi's Knight Card System made Loomon feel that he saw some possibilities.
Some time later, Duke Loomon created his first card.
[Card Name: Black Emperor Descends] [Card Level: Supreme] [Card Quality: Excellent] [Card Rank: Sixth Ring] [Card Effect: You can summon a Black Emperor Dragon from the early stage of the Sixth Ring to the peak of the Sixth Ring to fight for you, lasting for ten minutes. Note: The specific realm of the Black Emperor Dragon depends on the card quality.]
This kind of card that completely summons the projection of the Six Emperors Dragon is the most expensive in the current card system, because it is not simply using a certain ability. Therefore, the materials needed to make it are also quite expensive.
First, it requires 1000 grams of Sixth Ring speed dimension creature, preferably the Bloodline Essence of the Dragon Race, to outline the "image" and draw the "card art."
Bloodline Essence is not blood. 1000 grams is the amount that a Sixth Ring Knight cultivates for several years. And the Dragon Race Bloodline is also particular. The higher the quality, the greater the power. Using the blood of a Sixth Ring Legendary Dragon and the blood of a Dragon Spawn is definitely different.
Secondly, several Sixth Ring materials from the negative energy faction are needed to make "card paper," including shadow, darkness, blood, and poison... Ultimately, the composition of the Black Emperor Dragon is too complex. If it were a simple fire-type dragon, only flames would be needed.
Other aspects need not be elaborated.
In short, the greater the power, the greater the cost.
The better the materials and the better the technique, the higher the quality of the card.
Duke Loomon murmured, "This card is enough to exchange for a Sixth Ring top-grade Wizard weapon."
Only he would be so extravagant as to experiment in this way. For most Sixth Ring Knights, simply creating a Black Emperor Dragon-related Mystical Power Card would be enough to dominate their peers. There's absolutely no need for such extravagance and waste.
For example, creating a Black Emperor Enslavement card. As long as the enemy is defeated, this card can be activated. If successful, one can obtain a loyal servant for a period of time.
Of course, unlike the original Black Emperor Enslavement, the card version of enslavement has a maximum duration of no more than one day, depending on the card's quality.
Duke Loomon chanted and threw out the card.
"Formless in ancient and modern times, extinct in all directions! Go!"
Boom! Accompanied by an explosion, the card burned, emitting billowing black smoke. From within came a ferocious roar as if from the Primordial Era. A pair of cold, vertical pupils appeared, followed by a giant dragon with a wingspan of several thousand meters, its entire body pitch black, emerging from the shadows.
[I am the Black Emperor! Why have you summoned me!]
Duke Loomon smiled.
"I want you to spar with me."
Black Emperor Dragon: "..."
It nodded silently, without speaking. Because in the program Levi set for the Black Emperor Dragon within the Six Saint Heavens, there was only that one line.
But regardless, it accepted the order, transformed into a Black Light, and pounced towards Duke Loomon at an unimaginable speed, with various Negative Energy Storms sweeping out.
"Hahaha, well done!"
"Chronal Dragon, transform!"
Duke Loomon shouted in a chuuni fashion, transforming into that holy light behemoth that resembled both a worm and a dragon. It stood upright, its tail like a giant laser zanbato, its hands also wielding light swords, as if capable of cutting through the universe.
As it swung its sword, beams of light wove into a net, killing towards the Black Emperor Dragon. Faintly, there were signs of chaotic time.
Boom! The two supreme-level behemoths collided violently.
One positive, one negative, one light, one dark, like the two poles of the universe. The area within dozens of miles of their battle was illuminated in black and white, like a yin-yang fish, forming a wonderful harmony.
In terms of attributes, the Chronal Dragon slightly suppressed the Black Emperor Dragon, so at the beginning, the two were actually evenly matched. However, as time passed, the Black Emperor Dragon began to gain the upper hand because Duke Loomon had just broken through and was inferior to it in realm.
Time passed minute by minute.
After persisting for ten minutes, before Duke Loomon was pinned to the ground by the Black Emperor Dragon, the card's duration ended, its power exhausted. The Black Emperor Dragon transformed into a wisp of black smoke, slowly dissipating. A gratified smiling face emerged from the smoke, it was Levi.
"Not bad, you've actually succeeded in the trans-mythical evolution."
"Hahaha, how is it, are you surprised!"
"Surprised. By the way, what's the name of this breathing technique?"
"Chronal Dragon!"
"Good! This is the first supreme-level bloodline in my Twilight Temple besides me, and also the 15th mythical-level or higher bloodline."
"Hall Master, can I challenge the Twilight Eighteen Knights?"
"Yes, you can only use Knight methods."
"Understood, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time."
The ethereal Six Saint Heavens.
In front of the six great palaces, the statues of the Six Emperors Dragon that had always been there had come to life, their eyes shining with divine light. As the power of faith continued to pour in, and after long-term incense cultivation, one day, they might be resurrected with a Divine Body, hovering in the Sky Dome of the Six Saint Heavens, becoming genuine "Divine Dragons."
Finally completing one thing, Levi leaned back on the golden throne and fell into a deep sleep. After decades of high-intensity research, he was mentally exhausted. The Black Emperor Descends card was the first Knight card to take effect, proving the success of his path.
From then on, a new era of Knights began!
