9th floor of the Dark Ancient Tower.
Levi wasn't planning to undo the Black Emperor Enslavement on Ritte just yet. The man wasn't really bad; he was just after wealth and hadn't taken any lives.
If Levi were in his shoes, arriving in an unknown world full of treasures, he'd probably do the same, maybe even go further.
However, since Ritte would be needed as a 'guide' to the Naira Civilization in the future, he had to keep him in check to prevent any mishaps.
Thinking about the Abyss's large-scale invasion of the Multiverse, Levi felt a sense of urgency... He feared the Abyss might wipe out the Naira Civilization before he could get there.
As for the Golden Holy World, he wasn't worried for the time being.
Before Di Qi left, that civilization hadn't yet been invaded by the Abyss. Moreover, it was strong and had the Golden Will, a power not weaker than the Will of Azure Sky, guarding it. It was unlikely to be taken over by the Abyss in a short time.
While treasure hunting, Levi also gained a deeper understanding of the Beast Tamer path through Ritte, and he had some ideas for improving the Spiritism School.
As a former companion of Sauron, he certainly wouldn't treat the Naira Civilization the same way he treated the Golden Holy World.
After returning from the Dark Ancient Tower, he planned to discuss with the Supreme Council about bringing a Legendary Wizard along for an on-site investigation of Naira. That way, they would have the qualifications to negotiate with the two Tenth Ring experts.
As for the Golden Holy World, such an aggressive civilization was similar to the early, wildly expansionist Nora.
As the saying goes, 'a mountain cannot harbor two tigers'. With the Golden Will's ambition, integrating into Nora was impossible... and it could backfire at any time.
Levi thought it was best to eliminate them.
Of course, these were all his excuses. The essence was that these members of the Golden Absolute Clan were all walking Truth Wonders. If they could be digested and absorbed, the Ancient Dragon Continent and the Nora Civilization would undoubtedly reach new heights.
In the end, it all came down to profit.
Comparing Beast Tamers and Spiritism Wizards, Levi discovered the biggest difference: Beast Tamers could have more than one contracted beast.
The five major realms of Beast Tamers: Professional, Master, Epic, Legend, Myth.
At the starting point of the Beast Tamer path, a Beast Tamer has 1 contracted beast slot. Upon advancing to Master Beast Tamer, they gain a 2nd slot. After advancing to Legendary Beast Tamer, they unlock a 3rd slot.
In other words, a Beast Tamer, after reaching Ninth Ring, could actually have three contracted beasts.
Similar to the Transcendent realms, Beast Tamers divide beast potential into five levels: Ordinary, Elite, Epic, Legend, and Myth.
If compared to the Dragon race, the first two realms are mixed-blood dragons, followed by Dragon Spawn, and then Legend and Myth Dragon species.
For Beast Tamers, when they are weak, having an Elite beast that can smoothly transition them to around Fifth Ring is sufficient.
After that, if they have good luck and background, Beast Tamers might encounter an incomplete Epic or even Legend-level creature before reaching their strength bottleneck.
At this time, the Beast Tamer has already unlocked their second contracted beast slot and can replace their beast with one of higher potential, thereby entering the later realms.
This was the case with Ritte. His first beast was just an ordinary Mountain Giant Ape, with a potential limit of Fifth Ring peak. But after reaching Fifth Ring, he explored the Mountain Sea Secret Realm, the greatest legacy left to Naira by the Beast Ancestor.
Once a Beast Tamer has decided on their contracted beast, they cannot change it for the rest of their lives, except for the added slots.
Although Beast Tamers gain Strength through their beasts, they cannot share their long Lifespan. Therefore, in the improved Beast Tamer path of Naira, Beast Tamers can voluntarily terminate the contract by permanently losing a contracted slot and paying a certain price. The Transcendent creatures themselves do not die with them.
This is extremely beneficial for Transcendent creatures. They rely on Beast Tamers to gain faster growth and expand their population without worrying about being affected by the short Lifespan of the Beast Tamer.
This is much more advanced than Spiritism Wizards.
As far as Levi knew, Wizards of the Spiritism School practiced connecting with their contracted beasts, sharing honor and disgrace, and having a telepathic connection.
They completely regarded their spirit beasts as part of their own bodies. The advantage was that the two were united in body and mind, making it easier to exert combat power. The disadvantage was that it was unfair to Transcendent creatures. Many species with higher potential naturally would not accept this kind of contracted relationship, which was also a reason why the Spiritism School had not developed well.
Before the Beast Ancestor fell, he terminated the contracts with all his contracted beasts and sent all the resources and Transcendent creatures he had collected throughout his life into a Secret Realm independent of the Naira world, benefiting future generations.
This former companion of Sauron should have reached the late Tenth Ring realm. The wealth he left behind was naturally astonishing. The Secret Realm was vast and boundless, with countless rare birds and animals, and Legend creatures occasionally appearing.
In essence, this was a low-profile Dark Ancient Tower.
To enter the Mountain Sea Secret Realm, one had to rely on personal luck at other times, except for the once-a-century Mountain Sea Festival when the Secret Realm was fully opened.
Levi analyzed that the Beast Ancestor should have left a set of screening mechanisms. It was impossible to let everyone in, probably learned from Sauron.
In short, throughout history, many ordinary Beast Tamers have soared to the sky, changed their fate, and become famous throughout the ages by relying on the Mountain Sea Secret Realm.
One-third of the current 24 Heavenly Kings obtained their opportunities in the Secret Realm, while two-thirds relied on their families or adventures in the Multiverse.
Ritte was also a favored child of fortune. He only entered the Secret Realm for the first time after reaching Fifth Ring, but he hit the jackpot and obtained the juvenile form of the Legend creature Purple Lightning Heart Ape.
Since then, he had counterattacked all the way, advancing rapidly, reaching Eighth Ring peak, and becoming a strong candidate for the 25th Heavenly King.
If he successfully advances to Legendary Beast Tamer, he will unlock a third natal slot.
At that point, he can start looking for his own mythical creature. Of course, most Legendary Beast Tamers just choose another legendary creature.
Because mythical creatures are too rare. With a Beast Tamer's lifespan, the possibility of encountering a young one is close to zero, so how can they tame it?
But three natal slots are indeed a genius innovation.
Wizards have always focused on cultivating themselves and studying Earth-Fire Wind-Water. They haven't really researched these external paths much.
But in this era, facing the more severe situation of the Multiverse, diversified paths and systems are inevitable choices.
If this fusion succeeds, the Spiritism School and the Insect School will undergo a transformation, shaking off their status as minor schools.
With Victor's example, Levi, who didn't intend to pry into other people's reincarnation lives, asked Lyon to check on Naira Rian again.
This one isn't a Legendary Wizard, so she probably couldn't reincarnate for a second life, just a normal reincarnation. The final result also showed that Naira Rian in this life is just a mortal, nothing special. However, the civilization she left behind has been relatively prosperous and passed down to this day. In a way, her will lives on.
Back then, when Sauron fell, his companions went their separate ways. Now, after so many years, how many traces remain? Along the way, Levi asked Round Table about some of the names of companions it still remembered, and had Lyon check them all.
The reincarnation results were also unsatisfactory. If they didn't leave behind a civilization, it would mean that unique paths disappeared into the dust. He wondered if Sauron had left any backup plans for this.
Sauron wanted to use the Multiverse as a chessboard, with Nora as the chess piece, gathering former failures and companions to challenge the established four behemoth geju formed over countless years, leaving a significant mark.
"If fate allows, one day, companions will appear in Nora in various forms. This is the only opportunity."
Levi thought to himself, continuing his treasure hunt.
More than half a year later.
The Gold-Seeking Hound stopped, sniffing, not letting go of any place that might contain rare metal ore.
A Jin next to him looked nervous.
Damn it, is this kid going to find something good again? In the past six months, under its leadership, Levi has found 165 Truth Wonders! Not enough! Not nearly enough!
The master isn't even interested in this little bit of Wonders!
That stern mouth doesn't even show a hint of a smile.
Of the 165 Wonders, 23 were Morning Star level, 5 were Full Moon level, and 1 was Sun Flare level. A third of them were sequence Wonders.
Levi, the Three Heroes of Gondor, and Elena didn't need them, but now that the organization's new generation of geniuses is growing up, putting these Wonders in the organization's treasury should solve the urgent needs of Aya, Link, and their generation of supernovas.
That Sun Flare Wonder was a non-sequence Wonder of the metal system, the Bronze Holy Seat. The effect was also very good. Victor is now in the experienced Eighth Ring realm, not far from Eighth Ring completion. Refining this Wonder should allow him to advance.
The Qi Sect focuses on refining the heart. After the Eighth Ring, Victor's state of mind is also very tenacious, so there's no need to worry about mental instability.
Besides the Wonders, the other gains were mostly rare plants and creatures. But none of them reached the legendary level, so they weren't worth mentioning.
In fact, Levi was very satisfied with these gains, but he couldn't show it, so he could stimulate A Jin's fighting spirit and improve treasure hunting efficiency.
"Woof woof woof!"
The Gold-Seeking Hound suddenly barked.
Levi's expression changed. It should be something good.
He followed the hound down the tunnel, along the way there were many light pink Earth Elemental Metal ores, all below Sixth Ring. He uprooted them along with the ore veins and placed them in the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm's blessed land to continue nurturing these metals.
After an unknown amount of time, he came to an underground world. The narrow and cramped environment suddenly opened up, and a shocking scene came into view. A withered tree, fully 90,000 zhang tall, filled this world, desolate and silent.
On the ground, there were layers of light pink rock. The hound barked excitedly, circling around Levi. This was its discovery.
"This is some kind of Earth Elemental Metal above Sixth Ring. Such a large piece, we've struck it rich! But I've never seen this metal before, it's a bit strange."
Levi frowned. He guessed that this ore might have formed from the death of the giant tree, with its scattered dead branches and fallen leaves accumulating over the years. This is the most common way for Elemental Metals to be born, similar to coal in his previous life.
He came to the giant tree and touched its rough surface. There was still a faint cherry blossom scent in the air, similar to his previous life. At this thought, he called out Mana, who was playing mahjong, and asked:
"Is this a Divine Tree?"
Mana was still immersed in her tiles, but when she saw the giant tree, her pupils dilated and she murmured in a daze, "Yes, this is a Divine Tree... Although I've never seen it, I guess this should also be a descendant of the Origin Divine Tree. It might be the remains of the Sakura Divine Tree."
"Cherry Ancestor..."
Levi remembered that the Will of Azure Sky had been to the Cherry Ancestor World. Could it be that this underground world was formed by the fragments of the former Cherry Ancestor World converging?
The Sakura Ancestor had apparently been dead for hundreds of thousands, even millions of years, but its divine tree body allowed its ninety-thousand-foot corpse to remain almost eternally imperishable.
Seeing such a magnificent existence turned into a fossil, Levi sighed inexplicably. He said, "Let's look around. See if you can find anything useful."
"Alright, it's been dead for so long, the divine tree power should have dissipated already. But this corpse itself is a tenth-level Earth-elemental divine object. Once your Wizard Tower reaches the Tenth Ring, refining it will be more effective than all the Rare Wood you've obtained before. It's definitely a top-quality treasure," Mana said.
With that, the two began searching in the underground world.
Levi summoned the Rainbow Sword Master and said, "Use your sword energy to cut open all the mineral veins within a thousand miles of the giant tree."
The Rainbow Sword Master received the order and immediately began to work diligently.
After searching for a long time, Levi didn't find anything useful. But then Mana suddenly exclaimed, "Levi, come quickly! There's something here."
When Levi arrived, Mana was confronting a deer-like creature about ten feet tall. Its body was covered in sakura-like patterns and was entirely pink. On its head were two clusters of antlers like sakura tree branches, radiating vigorous vitality, displaying the illusion of flowers blooming in an instant, life and death flashing by.
This deer wasn't large, but it exuded the aura of a late-stage Eighth Ring, and even had a hint of sacredness, like a Mountain God in a primitive religion.
"This... this is a Sakura Beast."
Levi recognized it.
One of the four materials for Elena's advancement to the Candle Dragon Bloodline included a Bloodline Crystal containing the Sakura Beast's bloodline. Legend had it that this creature liked to run to places with World Trees, and now it seemed that it was true. Moreover, the aura emitted by the sakura tree-like antlers was exactly the same as that of the deceased Sakura Ancestor Tree.
Levi asked:
"Mana, do you think it's possible that the Sakura Ancestor isn't dead?"
Mana said, "It should be dead, but these antlers do contain the power of the divine tree. I suspect the Sakura Beast accidentally consumed the Source Root left behind by the Sakura Ancestor, transferring that power... some World Trees will regenerate in this way."
"What do you mean?"
"If this continues, one day the Sakura Beast's entire body will be petrified by the divine tree power left behind by the Sakura Ancestor. Then, a new Sakura Divine Tree will break through its body, using its flesh and blood to be reborn, accelerating the early growth of the World Tree. The starting point might be at the Eighth Ring, Ninth Ring level, unlike me, who has to grow slowly."
"Indeed... myths and legends sound romantic and beautiful, but reality is cruel. I thought the Sakura Beast and the Sakura Divine Tree had some kind of harmonious symbiotic relationship. In the end, it's still ruthless parasitism and devouring, alas."
"Actually, myths and legends aren't wrong either. The Sakura Beast, as a legendary creature, should be a member of the clan created by the Sakura Divine Tree using its Creation authority... in other words, without the Sakura Divine Tree, there would be no Sakura Beast."
"I remember you said that you currently lack that Creation authority. Why don't we save this Sakura Beast and absorb the divine tree power within its antlers?"
"Is that okay?"
"Isn't it... okay?"
Mana hesitated a bit, after all, her nature was different from Levi's. Although she had become much more "evil" under Levi's subtle influence over the years.
"It's already an old thing, it's time to give way to the new! Instead of wasting time on rebirth, it's better to let you grow up. Always dispersing power like this, when will we be able to fight against the behemoth worlds?!" Levi said righteously, not forgetting to add, "Besides, such a cute little deer, can you bear to let it die?"
Looking at the Sakura Beast's pure eyes, Mana suddenly felt that he had a point.
"Alright, I'll communicate with it. What if it doesn't want to?"
The Sakura Beast couldn't speak human language. It was a specialized creature whose mission of birth and reproduction might be to allow the Sakura Divine Tree to "revive through its corpse" one day.
While Mana was communicating with the Sakura Beast, Levi had already absorbed the ninety-thousand-foot giant tree, along with the foundation mineral veins wrapped by the roots below, into the Eternal Star Abyss. Once he became a Legendary, the advancement materials for the Eternal Star Abyss would also be complete.
Wonderful! As expected of the ninth floor, there were even divine objects of this value, comparable to Legendary Wonders. This trip was already a huge profit.
Thinking of this, Levi kept stroking the hunting dog.
"Good, good, worthy of praise."
He couldn't hide the smile on his face.
This made A Jin feel a sense of crisis. If it couldn't find something comparable to this tenth-level divine object, then it would fall out of favor...
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
A Jin came to Levi's shoulder, urging him to hurry up. It had only just warmed up, and there were still half a year left, enough to defeat the bad dog in front of it! On the other side, Mana communicated with the Sakura Beast for a long time. Levi waited quietly. This Sakura Beast had another use, as Elena's Bloodline Essence.
In this way, Elena would simultaneously possess the Secret Medicine of the two Lords of Blood Tribulation, and her cultivation speed would definitely increase greatly, allowing her to reach the Eighth Ring sooner.
"It's done, let's take the little deer away."
Mana led the Sakura Beast to Levi's side.
"Alright, then go in and save it."
Levi was in a good mood. If Mana absorbed this divine tree power from a tenth-level existence, even if she was slow, she should be at the late stage of the Eighth Ring, right? Her subsequent growth speed should also take a step up, reaching the Ninth Ring sooner.
Then, he would wipe out the Golden Holy World in one fell swoop, allowing Mana to reach the tenth level in one go, comparable to Lady Pandora. As for how to proceed to the eleventh level, Levi wasn't sure. For the Origin Divine Tree, the tenth level was enough.
He wasn't even sure if he could live to see the day Mana reached the eleventh level.
Time passed day by day.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for the Dark Ancient Tower to end.
A Jin performed well afterward, finding another 60 Truth Wonders for Levi, but none were even Sun Flare level, so naturally, they couldn't compare to the hound's harvest.
Along the way, Levi kept Ritte company, allowing him to constantly instill knowledge and history from the Beast Taming Civilization, preparing for the upcoming journey. Seeing that Ritte was also approaching the ninth level, he asked about the conditions for advancement.
Ritte said that if he wanted to advance to Legendary Beast Tamer, he needed to complete two tasks: the first was to bring the Purple Lightning Heart Ape to its complete form. He was currently looking for a secondary ingredient for a legendary beast taming potion called [Nine-Leaf Red]. If he had this, he could refine a potion called [Heart of Naira] with other materials, which could increase the success rate of the beast's tribulation and accelerate its development.
The second was to find a ninth-level herb called [Concentric Grass]. This was the main ingredient for refining the necessary potion for advancing to legend, [Water of Fate Wheel]. This potion could assist in opening the third life-bound contract slot.
Concentric Grass was only produced in the [Mountain Sea Secret Realm], while [Nine-Leaf Red] was a new material discovered in recent years, and its current production was not high. Because of its ability to lure extraordinary creatures, it was strictly controlled by the authorities.
So he could only search through plane travel, and then he was taken in by the Dark Ancient Tower.
"The Nine-Leaf Red you mentioned, is it this?"
Levi took out a Nine-Leaf Blood Mandala, and a strange fragrance wafted out. The Purple Lightning Heart Ape revealed a look of ecstasy, and Ritte's eyes lit up, saying, "Yes, it is indeed this thing."
"Take it."
"Master, are you really giving this to me?"
"Yes, work hard, and there will be as much of this stuff as you want."
"Thank you, Master!"
Nine-Leaf Blood Mandala is now mass-produced in Nora. On the one hand, it is to lure Black Beasts to capture and purify them. On the other hand, Lady Rowling discovered that this herb can be used to refine a potion that promotes the development of extraordinary creatures, helping the Spiritism School develop.
As long as there is enough profit to drive it, relying on the current executive power of the Nora Council, even the rarest plants can be cultivated for you.
On the way, Levi flipped through the Myriad Beasts Illustrated Compendium.
"Do you have [Winter Extremes Snow Ape] over there?"
"Yes, the second life-bound beast of the [Extreme Cold Heavenly King] in the current 24 Heavenly Kings is the Winter Extremes Snow Ape, which is also his signature beast."
"Are there any metal-based giant apes?"
"I haven't heard of any."
Levi thought he had collected all four apes of Earth-Fire Wind-Water. As a result, with the arrival of this [Purple Lightning Heart Ape], his obsessive-compulsive disorder struck again, and he wanted to collect all seven elements.
Moreover, when he killed the ninth-level Amethyst Clan member, Levi also learned of a legendary giant ape called [Netherworld Hidden Ghost Ape] through its memory.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
As they walked, A Jin ran up to Levi. They came to a scorching desert, where the high temperature was abnormal and the space was distorted.
"The treasure is in this place?"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
"Okay, lead the way!"
After passing through the desert, a boundless sea of fire appeared in front of them before long, covering an area of thousands of miles. The edge area was equivalent to Sixth Ring flames, and Levi estimated that the central area was at the ninth-level standard.
"Interesting."
He strode into it, the Red Emperor Dragon reigned supreme, and all fires were unable to invade. Not to mention the ninth level, even the tenth-level Divine Fire couldn't do anything to him in a short time.
In the very center, an ancient and dilapidated blanket floated in the void, completely red, with a majestic firebird painted on the surface.
"It's actually a ninth-level treasure?"
Damn, you can encounter a ninth-level treasure just by taking a stroll, and there are no traps or obstacles in the way. It is obvious that the Dark Ancient Tower accidentally took it in.
With a wave of his hand, he took the blanket.
Divine Fire Blanket, a ninth-level offensive treasure, contains ninth-level Divine Flames that incinerate all things. It is forged from various rare materials such as the skin of a ninth-level Flame King Dragon, the tail feathers of a Fierce Sky Sparrow, the divine remains of a Flame Angel, and the fur of a Star Devouring Flame Wolf...
"A good treasure, definitely a high-quality one, not inferior to Gandalf's Plow Star. Unfortunately, it's useless to me, but it's perfect for the Holy Infant clone, paired with the Wizard Tower. After the Eighth Ring is complete, it will have the power to fight against the ninth level."
Speaking of which, Gandalf and the Holy Infant both have Ninth Ring extraordinary treasures. I can't favor one over the other. I'll have to find a way to get one for Victor in the future."
Levi put away the extraordinary treasure, a slight smile finally appearing on his lips.
A Jin's small eyes showed some unwillingness.
It always felt that the treasure in this desert wasn't just that. There was something more valuable, something that could definitely surpass that hound!
The sea of fire gradually disappeared, sucked into the magic carpet. Suddenly, a fiery red light rushed towards Levi aggressively.
"Who are you? Why have you trespassed into the territory of Lord Flame Devourer of Stars · Ilos! How dare you! Quickly hand over my father!"
It was a bizarre monster resembling a dragon and a bird, with angelic wings on its back but the head of a wolf. This was a Fire Elemental Lord, with the Strength of a late Eighth Ring.
"Where is your father?"
"You took him."
"So, you were born from this extraordinary treasure?"
"Yes, don't change the subject."
Then, Levi released endless majesty. The Red Emperor Dragon World descended, and the Red Emperor Dragon phantom behind him shattered the sky, directly dispersing this ball of fire element.
The fire stars in the sky re-condensed into the giant monster's form.
"Don't... don't kill me."
It had grown up here since childhood, and after reaching the late Eighth Ring, it was invincible. Living in a well and looking at the sky, how could it have ever seen such terror! "Don't worry, I won't kill you. Sign an Elemental Spirit Contract, and I'll take you away from here."
"Okay, I'll sign."
Just like that, buy one get one free.
Levi happily obtained a new worker. Thinking back on his journey, the Fire Elemental Spirits had played extremely important roles.
Ace, Phoenix, Diablo, and now Ilos, truly a complete family. This Fire Element is not far from the Ninth Ring. Levi plans to find a Fire Element treasure land after going out to help it advance to the Elemental Overlord realm.
To some extent, the Elemental Spirits scattered throughout the Multiverse are also an invisible and enormous Strength. Their upper limit is extremely high, and the strongest should be the Fire Monarch.
If he could win this one over to the Nora camp, thereby commanding all the Elemental Spirits in the world to gather together, it would be another army sweeping across the Multiverse!
"Ilos, you are more familiar with this place. Are there any obvious ruins or temple sites?" Levi asked.
"Yes, deeper into the desert, I once saw a temple from afar. It had a terrifying aura, and I didn't dare to approach it. I don't know what's inside."
Hearing this, Levi smiled. It must be the temple left by Sauron. A Jin's eyes were also excited. It knew that there were still good things in the desert! Under the urging of the little mouse, Levi transformed into a rainbow and left.
The yellow sand was boundless, and a brown temple stood tall.
In the light, Levi appeared gracefully.
He gently pushed open the closed temple door, and a musty, decaying aura rushed towards him, followed by a thick stone pillar attacking like an arrow.
With a gentle palm, the stone pillar turned into dust. With another flicker, he arrived in front of the culprit and grabbed its throat.
This was a twelve-winged angel with a female appearance. Her face was extremely beautiful and sacred, with two beautiful tear marks on her cheeks. She was truly a heavenly goddess, worthy of pity.
"You... who exactly are you? I am the Archangel · Marianna under the Earth Mother. Your dirty hands have desecrated the body of a god. Do you know your crime?"
She was once a peak Ninth Ring expert. Because of her identity as an Archangel, even some weaker gods in the Myriad Phenomena Forest treated her with some respect. Now her Strength had fallen to the mid Ninth Ring, but she shouldn't have been captured by someone of the same level with one move.
This kind of Strength was too shocking! "Earth Mother, I just met her not long ago... I just like using dirty hands to caress your noble, sacred, and untouchable forbidden bodies."
Levi smiled and twisted her neck off.
Blood and tears flowed from the Archangel's eyes as she cursed the blasphemer before her. The Red Emperor Dragon Flame swept out, and before long, the Archangel was reduced to ashes.
A golden light appeared, and Levi's eyes widened in surprise.
"Golden Legend? Sauron, you're giving me a big surprise all of a sudden... Don't give me any perverted Golden Finger."
He reached out and caught the golden light, only to find that this strand of falling earthy-yellow aura exuded a rich Creation vitality.
[Earth Mother Qi (Golden Legend)] [Level: Tenth Ring]
[Effect: Unceasing]
[Unceasing: 1. The Earth Mother Qi can catalyze the growth of plants and animals, making them more lush and healthy, possessing the power to seize the Creation of Heaven and Earth. 2. The Earth Mother Qi can nurture vitality and spirituality, thereby gradually giving birth to new life forms in barren lands. 3. Approaching the Earth Mother Qi can heal injuries; non-fatal injuries can be rapidly recovered in a short period of time. 4. The Earth Mother Qi can automatically draw Earth Elemental Power from the Wu Yin void, shaping land, extending the boundaries of the continent, and accelerating the growth of the world. 5. The Earth Mother Qi is a natural Legendary Wonder; refining it can grant the corresponding Legendary profession.]
"Is it really a Tenth Ring Divine Object?"
Levi's eyes showed surprise, and his heart was filled with excitement.
This trip to the Dark Ancient Tower actually yielded two Divine Objects!
The Sakura Ancestor's remains were invaluable, comparable to a Supreme Treasure.
This Earth Mother Qi was even more heaven-defying.
Not only did it have a plethora of effects related to the growth of all things, but it was also a pure, natural [Legendary Wonder] in itself.
This was also the second time Levi had come into contact with such an innate Wonder. The [Candle of Light] should have been artificially refined by Sauron.
The other innate Wonder was the [Twilight Halberd].
Of course, innate and acquired only distinguished the way Wonders were formed and did not represent the quality and strength of the Wonders. If the cost was high, the power of the acquired Wonder would naturally not be weak, such as the [Candle of Light].
"With so many Legendary Wonders, how should I choose?"
Levi was actually a little troubled.
"Forget it, cross that bridge when I come to it. I'll think about it later. I won't refine this Earth Mother Qi for the time being. Placing it in the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm can accelerate the development of the Immortal Realm. Mana, as the World Tree, can also benefit from it. If I determine that I don't need this thing in the future, I might as well let Mana refine it to help her take it a step further."
Although the more Legendary professions, the better, Levi also needed to consider the success rate of advancement, so he was not sure whether he should refine them all.
This Earth Mother Qi looked like a wisp of aura, but it was actually extremely heavy, probably heavier than the combined weight of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.
Only Levi, with his unparalleled Divine Power, could lift it.
After he placed it in the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm, the Mother Qi transformed upon entering the soil and began to sink continuously until it reached the heart of the Immortal Realm, which was also the base of Mana's World Tree.
"Levi, what are you doing at my feet?"
Mana's figure appeared, wearing a perverted expression.
"It's nothing. I put something good for you."
Levi smiled and pointed to the khaki-colored aura.
"What is this?"
"Earth Mother Qi."
"I seem to have heard of it. It is said to have the power of Creation and is coveted by World Trees... Is this true?"
"It's true. If I don't need it in the future, I'll let you refine it."
"Hehe, thank you... Levi, you're so nice."
Mana's little face smiled, obviously pleasantly surprised.
"Don't be happy too soon. If I need it, you won't get a share."
Levi said mercilessly.
"Then I'm still happy."
"Whatever. By the way, if anyone gets injured in the future, you only need to place them next to the Mother Qi, and they will be healed quickly."
"Mm-hmm, I feel it. With this thing, the cell division and tissue growth in my body have accelerated. If I refine the Sakura Beast's Sakura Divine Tree power, I can hopefully advance to the peak of the Eighth Ring in a short time."
Of course, Mana's "short time" might still take hundreds of years.
Levi was already used to it.
He left the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm and continued to explore the temple.
As usual, there should be some easter eggs inside, which are also important items. Before long, Levi discovered Sauron's note in a pure white dress hanging on a rack.
"Why does this dress look so familiar? And it has a woman's fragrance."
This thing is either a treasure or a good quality piece of clothing. Levi suddenly remembered that the Earth Mother who descended some time ago seemed to have a similar style.
Levi immediately opened the note to check.
[Earth Mother · Mesa, resides in the sacred plains of the Thousand Hills Kingdoms, Her Divine Kingdom is behind the Gate of All Things. She is one of the oldest gods in the Star Realm, mastering most of the Earth Divine Authority, and later plundered the Motherhood Divine Authority, rising to the ranks of the best among the powerful gods, Her Strength is slightly inferior to that of the Heavenly Father. The Earth Mother has seven subordinate gods, known as the "Seven Holy Goddesses", each of whom is extremely beautiful, possessing a captivating appearance. Of course, their beauty is not as great as the Earth Mother's. I know that the Earth Mother's true form may just be a large meat worm bred by the Star Realm, but I am still amazed by Her beauty, maybe this is a man's weakness. It's like I know that Succubi are essentially meat worms bred by the Abyss, but I still can't resist their temptation and naturally tasted their flavor. Damn Lust, why is it that among the seven deadly sins, only it makes me defenseless? A hero cannot resist the charms of a beauty. Sauron, Sauron, you should be more careful. From today on, abstain from lust! Be a man who is not controlled by his lower body! Be a man who is not defined! … … The Earth Mother's taste is really good! I originally refused. But I found that the Earth Mother and the Heavenly Father seem to have something going on... These two powerful gods once merged and conceived twin god-children through some means. They want to use their children to go further, so as to get rid of their nemesis, the Bloodfire Overlord and the Lord of Chaos. The Star Realm is really interesting, originally from the same root, why bother to fight each other so urgently, eating each other, aren't they still worms? A worm-eat-worm battle? Based on the principle of not letting the Heavenly Father feel good, after they merged and conceived, I quietly found the Earth Mother. She was wearing a pure white dress, so holy and beautiful, making it unbearable to defile. "Madam Mesa, you wouldn't want your child to die young, would you?" With one sentence, I tasted the forbidden fruit of love. During the merging, I checked the situation of the god-child. These two are really going all out, they discovered the [Worldly Ring] that I have been looking for, and refined it into the god-child's body. Because the god-child has been conceived in the mother's body for an ancient era, the [Worldly Ring] is difficult to strip away. I spent a lot of effort to take it out. But I also left some of the [Worldly Ring]'s characteristics in the god-child's body... Oh, by the way, I also took a strand of [Earth Mother Qi] from the god-child's umbilical cord. The Worldly Ring is a ring of fate, a natural wonder that cannot be refined, originating from a primordial being who has long since fallen. Those who possess this ring can imbue the aura of the creatures they encounter with the aura of fate, causing them to be captured by fate from then on. No matter how much time and space is crossed, anyone who has had involvement with the owner of the Worldly Ring can always meet the owner of the Worldly Ring at the right time and place. This is not a miracle, this is not luck... This is an inescapable ring of fate! Fate is like a ring, anyone who is captured, no matter how hard they try to escape, will only meet the owner after circling the Worldly Ring. What a wonderful and vicious thing this is! Fortunately, with my current realm, it is impossible for me to be captured. Because some of the characteristics of the [Worldly Ring] remain in the god-child's body, Lady Mesa does not know that I have taken this thing out. She also doesn't know that I have made some insignificant changes to the god-child. The Heavenly Father will not know that the holy light above His head has turned into a beautiful green light of love. One day, the god-child will eventually be born. But He may not be able to grow up. Poor child, most likely to be eaten by a snake. The primordial being who gave birth to the [Worldly Ring] also gave birth to another companion object, which I named the [Myriad World Ring]. According to my analysis and investigation, this thing may have been swallowed by a mythical creature that has appeared in history, it is called: the End Serpent. Unfortunately, in my era, no trace of this creature has been found. I don't have much time left. I won't look for it, let it be.]
No one can be perfectly prepared for everything, and nothing can be done perfectly.
The universe is so vast, there are bound to be good things scattered in hidden corners I don't know about.
I believe in the power of fate from the Worldly Ring.
These two rings will eventually reunite one day!
