Nora Calendar 1722, Bloody Battle 1610.
Forgotten Land, Black Gold World.
As one of the few resource-rich areas, this place has been a strategic point of contention since ancient times. Thousands of years ago, the Black Scales swept across all directions and obtained ownership of the mines.
But soon after, the Red Scale Race also moved to the Forgotten Land. These two major races were naturally at odds, incompatible as fire and water, and their ancestors had some grievances, accumulated over generations.
The hatred reached its peak in the Black Gold World, erupting like a volcano. Thus began the thousand-year Black Gold War, with generations of clansmen fighting to this day.
On the battlefield, the two races have invested hundreds of Sixth Ring and above powerhouses, and the Commanders-in-Chief are all Ninth Ring powerhouses. The Scale Race at the bottom is even more countless.
This scale of war is already top-tier in the Forgotten Land.
The Black Gold World is divided into two, one side is scorched earth for thousands of miles, the other is black water taotian, the central collision creates a sky of white mist, permeating the sky, forming a natural boundary.
On this day, for some reason, another major battle broke out, and the battlefield was filled with the sounds of fighting. The Ninth Ring Black Scales and Ninth Ring Red Scales sometimes exchanged blows, sometimes clashed with water and fire, how not intense.
Black Devil Nicks and Red Devil Rick, the two ceilings of the Black Gold Battlefield, are also the leaders of their respective races, both with mid-Ninth Ring cultivation.
The two are evenly matched, and have not been able to determine a winner after fighting for thousands of years. He wins today, you win tomorrow. But this time, Red Devil is particularly confident.
It looked at the old opponent it had been with day and night, and advised, "Admit defeat, Black Devil, this feud that has lasted for a hundred thousand years should end."
Black Devil sneered: "It should end. We discovered this Black Gold Mine, get out!"
Red Devil snapped his fingers.
"Hehe, not knowing death is coming... Red Dog, come out."
Flames flowed on the ground, outlining a giant Magic Array with a radius of hundreds of miles. A red-haired giant dog emerged, ten thousand feet tall, exuding the aura of an early Ninth Ring.
Legendary Creature Crimson Hellhound, this big dog's shape is similar to a Tibetan Mastiff, its thick and powerful limbs are comparable to a Golden Lion, and its saliva is constantly flowing.
"Woof woof woof!"
The Hellhound turned into a red light and pounced towards Black Devil, wrapped in thousands of miles of crimson flames.
Black Devil's expression changed slightly.
"No wonder you are so confident, you have actually tamed such a legendary behemoth... It's a pity, after fighting for a thousand years, your wife doesn't know you as well as I do. I saw that you haven't shown up this year, and I knew you were looking for a trump card. How could I not be prepared?"
A black shadow came from the sky and punched the Red Dog in the chest. The giant mastiff was in pain and flew back. It was a strange man with a particularly stout figure, covered in cyan-black scales, and controlling the power of Earth-Fire Wind-Water at the same time. Its eyes were fierce, and its blood-red eyes stared at the Red Dog, extremely bloodthirsty, as if it had no reason at all.
Seeing this, Red Devil's expression changed drastically: "Black Devil, are you crazy? Your Black Scale Race is actually secretly cultivating the Forbidden Scale Race!"
What the world doesn't know is that the Black Scale and Red Scale Races were actually one family a long time ago.
In ancient times, there was a group in the Multiverse whose power was so great that it could be ranked in the top ten of the pan-plane, and that was the Seven Calamity Ancient Race.
Also known as the Seven-Colored Scale Race.
Although the ancient race is not as powerful as the Giants, their physical bodies are equally impressive. They are born with control over at least one Element Power.
The fewer types of Element Power they master, the faster they grow. Conversely, the slower they grow, but they are rare opponents in the same realm and can fight ten against one.
When the Seven Calamity Ancient Race was prosperous, the Wizard civilization was still in the ignorant ancient times, far inferior to the Scale Race. The ancient race then established a powerful Seven-Colored Empire.
At that time, there were many Ninth Ring powerhouses in the Seven-Colored Empire, hundreds of them... But strangely, with so many Ninth Ring bases, they could not give birth to a Tenth Ring powerhouse no matter what. If it were another civilization, there should be at least ten or more Tenth Rings.
So, clearly, there were clouds of mid-to-high-level powerhouses, but this group has never been able to be called a top group, otherwise it should be able to become a civilization second only to the Giant Empire. Until one day, a fierce man was born.
That was the 9th generation Lord of Seven Calamities Monks. It was born with the ability to control Earth-Fire Wind-Water energy, and was initially considered a congenitally crippled body.
Similar to Wizards, mastering too many factions at the same time will inevitably lead to slower Growth and cultivation. The difference is that the Wizard Child of Chaos can actively choose to cultivate and specialize in a single path. If the ancient race is born with four elements, it can only passively accept it and cannot specialize.
Originally, the Growth speed of the ancient race was far inferior to that of Wizards. Even if they only mastered a single Element, their Growth speed, if compared to Wizards, would be at the level of dual-Element affinity. It cannot be compared with the Wizard Child of Element.
The difficulty of being a congenitally crippled body can be imagined.
Monks, as a fierce man, naturally wanted to break the rules. Although its talent was very poor, it was extremely hardworking, especially kind to people, and had good luck and popularity.
Although its cultivation was slow, it was always able to approach its lifespan and break through the realm without any danger. Sometimes it was helped by benefactors, and sometimes it was a chance from heaven.
In this way, it actually came to the Ninth Ring realm, and finally broke the shackles and became the first, and last, Tenth Ring powerhouse of the Seven Calamity Ancient Race.
After Monks reached the Tenth Ring, it integrated Earth-Fire Wind-Water into one, mastered the Chaos Power, and expanded the power of Thunder, Gold, and Frost, thus becoming an unprecedented seven-Element Power controller, calling itself: God Lord of Seven Calamities, also known as "Lord of Seven-Colored Scales".
After reaching Tenth Ring, the Lord of Seven-Colored Scales became a leader among Tenth Rings. Apart from the top experts of the Giant Empire, it was already a behemoth-level existence.
Its physical body was as powerful as a Giant, and it simultaneously controlled seven series of spells. At the time, many people believed it would advance to the Supreme.
Unfortunately, heaven was jealous of its talent, and the Lord of Seven-Colored Scales fell not long after reaching Tenth Ring. At the time, the Four Chaos Gods wreaked havoc in the Seven-Colored Empire. It fought four enemies alone, displaying unparalleled strength, and contended with four mid-level deities for a long time, but ultimately perished.
It seemed that Monks had exhausted the Seven-Colored Scale Race's luck. Since then, this race had been unable to produce Tenth Ring experts. Furthermore, it was targeted by the Lord of Chaos. After a long evolution, it gradually split into seven races, which are the Scale Races of today.
Nowadays, the Scale Races, because they control single elements, have good individual talents. Therefore, although their population is small, the proportion of Sixth Ring experts is much higher than that of Wizards. The average strength of individuals is also at the upper level among the myriad races.
The biggest problem they face is the inability to produce Tenth Rings. No matter how strong your middle and lower levels are, you cannot be called a large civilization.
Faced with the Star Realm or other evil forces, they have no power to resist, and can only passively flee, unable to stabilize, let alone develop.
Some say that because the Lord of Seven-Colored Scales touched the Chaos Authority and threatened the status of the Chaos Wasteland, the Star Realm had to strangle it.
The civilization where the Lord of Seven-Colored Scales was located did not have a top expert like Eamon to support them. If the Lord of Chaos wanted to, it could destroy them in minutes.
The seven Scale Races of later generations have never given up trying to merge and return to the glorious years of the Seven Calamity Ancient Race, but the more they merge, the more likely problems arise.
Either their sanity collapses and they become madmen, or they completely lose their extraordinary bloodline and, conversely, pollute the existing Scale Race bloodline.
Over time, this behavior has become a "taboo."
Seeing that this strange man simultaneously controlled Earth-Fire Wind-Water, and was bloodthirsty and irrational, clearly a combination from the Azure Scale Race, the Red Devil quickly retreated: "You... you Black Scales are truly crazy, resorting to any means."
The Black Devil coldly said, "The general trend of the world is that what is united for a long time must divide, and what is divided for a long time must unite. Times have changed. Look at the former Seven Calamity Ancient Race, what has become of it now? And look at the Wizard Civilization, it has already surpassed us and far exceeded us."
"Nonsense! Even if we return to the ancient race, do you think the Star Realm can tolerate us? The Lord of Chaos has been watching us!" said the Red Devil.
"Hmph, that's better than doing nothing!"
"Doing nothing means you'll never make a mistake!"
"If you only seek to avoid mistakes, don't even think about progress!"
"What's the use of progress? In the end, another Lord of Seven-Colored Scales will appear, and won't it still be annihilated by the Lord of Chaos with a backhand? It's all in vain. At least everyone is still alive now."
"Talking to a cow! Let's decide life and death today! You are not worthy to lead the Red Scale Race!"
The auras of four Ninth Ring experts clashed, earth-shattering, causing the Black Gold World to tremble, until a silver spaceship appeared in the void, and the hatch opened. A handsome Black Armor Swordsman figure walked out, cracking melon seeds, smiling and waving his hand: "You've been fighting for thousands of years, don't fight, how about giving me some face and sitting down to talk? You can't kill anyone fighting like this."
The Black Devil and the Red Devil turned their heads at the same time: "What's it to you?!"
The two continued to fight, but as they fought, they felt that this person was a little strange, as if they had seen him somewhere...
Damn, it's the Twilight Hall Master! The fierce man who reversed the situation from Eighth Ring to defeat Ninth Ring, from Ninth Ring to defeat Tenth Ring, and was chased by countless experts in the Multiverse, but remained safe and sound!
The two quickly stopped, looked at each other, stayed where they were, and after a moment of silence, the Red Devil asked, "I have met the Twilight Hall Master, but this is a private matter of our race."
Levi shook his head and smiled: "This is indeed your private matter, but can your current fighting method solve the problem? Now, among the Seven-Colored Scale Race, four races live in Nora, and their development momentum is far better than before.
The Azure Scale Race, the Green Scale Clan, and the White Scale have two Ninth Ring experts each. The leader of the Green Scale Clan, the Star Ripper, is even in the late stage of Ninth Ring, and has the potential to reach Tenth Ring in the future. Our myriad races are already declining, is there any point in fighting each other?
Besides, the Black Gold World is just a small place, and its resources are less than one ten-thousandth of Nora's. Is it worth consuming so many lives of your race? With this energy, you might as well follow me back to Nora. To be honest, I am now rescuing all the Seven-Colored Scale Race groups in the Multiverse.
It is for the sake of one day, we can revive the name of the Seven Calamity Ancient Race, and let you give birth to Tenth Ring, and even Eleventh Ring experts.
Can't you see it yet? The reason why the Seven-Colored Scale Race cannot develop is not because you are stupid, not because you are not working hard... it is because the Lord of Chaos on high does not want you to rise. The reason why the Lord of Seven-Colored Scales died was also because the Lord of Chaos was worried that it was too strong and would one day plot its Chaos Divine Authority.
If you don't solve the problem from the source, you will always be the bottom-tier race in the Multiverse, and you can only fight to the death and scheme against each other for trivial resources.
The reason why you Seven-Colored Scale Races are fighting each other may also be a conspiracy of the Lord of Chaos. If this continues, it will only benefit it... What is the main contradiction, what is the secondary contradiction, everyone must distinguish clearly.
If you ask me, if you want to fight, fight the Star Realm, clean up those parasites in the Multiverse, end the history of the gods, and create our own legend!"
Levi's words silenced the Red Devil, the Black Devil, and all the warriors of the two races... They had been blindly fighting for so long, hating their compatriots to the bone, and it seemed that they were about to forget the old events and grudges of ancient times.
Yes, the culprit is the Lord of Chaos! If it weren't for it, perhaps the one who unified the Multiverse would not be the Giant Empire, but their Seven-Colored Empire! What is this all about? It's a very simple truth, how come they only understand it now? Are these things being done secretly by the Star Realm?
"Stop it, don't fight!"
"Don't fight!"
The two experts called a halt to the war.
They looked at Levi, who just stood with his arms crossed, and said lightly: "I am here to take you back to Nora, but I will not force you, it is all up to your own free will."
If they agree, that would be best.
If that doesn't work... then I'll just knock them all unconscious and take them away, then use the Night Obscuring Pearl and Nightmare spells to make them forget what they just said.
"Lord, we... we are willing to go."
The Red Devil spoke first, breaking the silence.
Seeing his old rival about to leave, the Black Devil thought for a moment and said, "Lord, I'll go too. To revitalize the glory of the ancient clan, not a single one can be left behind!"
"Good, isn't this a perfect solution? Let's go, you two."
A month later, all preparations were complete, and the silver spaceship carried another ship full of Scale Race members towards the distance. After boarding, the Red Devil and Black Devil were immediately dumbfounded.
There were dozens of Ninth Ring auras, and four Tenth Ring auras of Giants, exuding the wild aura of ancient times, breathing wind and thunder, and reaching for stars with their hands.
"Why are there so many Giants?"
"Yeah, are we still dreaming?"
"What year is it?"
"This has to be fake."
A group of tiny Scale Race members stared at the Giants.
The Fire Giant King opened his eyes.
"What are you looking at?"
Three years later.
Nora Calendar 1725, Bloody Battle 1613.
Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.
Before the Twilight Round Table, Levi closed the projection with Elena. Ninety years had passed since his departure. From their conversation, he learned that many changes had taken place in Nora and the Ancient Dragon Continent, truly a different place each year.
On a grand scale.
The number of planes merged by Nora exceeded twenty thousand, and the New Continent was dotted with stars, all equipped with Continental Bridges, making mutual communication extremely convenient. The Star Gate Project was also progressing smoothly, connecting many distant worlds and military strongholds.
Recently, they had killed six Nightmare Lords and billions of Nightmare Creatures, providing unimaginable biological materials. Now, under the leadership of the Daydream Believer, the Nora Council was refining powerful treasures aimed at Nightmare Lords.
Code name: [Dream Stealing Project].
In addition, the School of Dream Weaving undoubtedly benefited the most from this Nightmare invasion. In the past century, three more Great Wizards had been born, and there were even more Primal Soul Wizards.
On a smaller scale.
The School of Dream Weaving on the Ancient Dragon Continent had also made rapid progress, with more than twenty Primal Soul Wizards, a veritable explosion compared to previous years! Knights with perception-type abilities within the Twilight Temple were also beneficiaries of this era. Sixth Ring experts emerged one after another, and the Thousand Illusion Knight advanced to the Seventh Ring late stage. She planned to try again before the Ninth Ring to see if she could evolve once more and reach the pinnacle of the Supreme Will.
In addition, the Twilight Temple had also reached a strategic partnership with the Beast Taming Continent, complementing each other with their existing biological resources and technologies. The Thousand Illusion Knight had obtained a lot of Bloodline Essence from the Beast Emperor's first Illusion Beast.
The Illusion Beast was no longer a primary combat pet, and the cooperation was smooth because it only involved a reasonable amount of blood extraction that didn't harm its origin.
Beast tamers would certainly not do anything that harmed the origin of their beasts... such as taking the eyes of a Four-Eyed Shrimp Dragon.
In other aspects, the Golden Lion Knight advanced to the Eighth Ring, meaning that all the old-generation Knights were at the Eighth Ring, moving towards the Ninth Ring. The Fire Dragon Knight, a single-minded and exceptionally talented freak, had even advanced to the late stage of the Eighth Ring, hoping to enter the Ninth Ring before the age of 2500.
At that time, Levi would not be too lonely in the Six Saint Heavens.
Of course, the luckiest one was Loomon Duke. He had traded a lot of treasured Light Saint Ancient Dragon Bloodline Essence from the Beast Emperor, and his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds. He had reached the late stage of the Sixth Ring in less than two hundred years.
Even without considering his identity as a legendary reincarnation, he was a top genius with excellent Knight talent, not much inferior to the Fire Dragon Knight.
Among the Eighteen Riders, the Silver Dragon Knight had ceded his position to the Dragon Flame Knight Lei Long. He was now at the middle stage of the Seventh Ring, which was not weak, but he wanted to retire from the front line and give the opportunity to this supernova, using his reputation to recruit for the organization.
After leaving the Round Table, he also lived a life of having a wife, children, and a warm bed, working hard to continue the Silver Dragon Family, cultivating his descendants, hoping that they could take the Silver Dragon Bloodline a step further and create a new mythical bloodline! In addition, the complete Primal Soul Artifact Crafting Method was also conquered by the exotic treasure forging team formed by Loomon Duke and the Holy Infant, and passed on to Levi.
He used this method to refine the [Seven Calamity Pearls], nourishing them with his Primal Soul. A month later, he sensed a faint spirituality born within the pearls.
It seemed to come alive, spitting out elemental power in Levi's mind, wandering freely. Before long, a dark cloud layer floated in the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm.
This power was no less than a Ninth Ring Great Tribulation.
"The advancement of exotic treasures refined by the Primal Soul Artifact Crafting Method actually requires passing through tribulations. Could it be that in the eyes of the Darkness Zone, this is also considered a kind of living being?"
Levi thought thoughtfully.
"If it continues to grow, will it become a genuine living being with a treasure body, capable of independent combat? Interesting."
The power of the Seven Calamity Tribulation far surpassed ordinary Ninth Ring tribulations, with a full seven types of elemental calamities manifesting, similar to when Levi advanced to Great Wizard. Levi seized this opportunity to throw pieces of rare Ninth Ring ores and materials into the tribulation.
Before long, these materials turned into colorful torrents, devoured by the Seven Calamity Pearls like a whale swallowing the sea. The pearl became increasingly round, emitting bursts of Divine Light.
After 81 days, the tribulation completely dissipated, and the original Seven Calamity Pearls had undergone a great transformation. It had transformed into a seven-inch-tall miniature figure.
Its appearance was somewhat similar to Levi, and it curiously sized him up with its gaze. A feeling of mutual understanding was established between Levi and the pearl.
"Mas... Master."
From within the Seven Calamity Pearls, a naive thought was conveyed.
"It really turned into a living being?"
Levi's eyes flickered slightly.
With a wave of his hand, the seven-inch figure flew over and landed in his palm.
"Master."
The thought appeared again.
"What's your name?"
"What is a name?"
It was like a newborn infant, filled with ignorance of all concepts. Only because of the connection of the Primal Soul, they were of one mind, and it knew Levi as its master.
"From now on, you'll be called Seven Treasures."
"Okay, Seven Treasures... Master, I'm hungry."
"What do you want to eat?"
"Those things you fed me before."
"I see."
Levi took out a large pile of useless low-level materials. Seven Treasures floated over, sniffed, and after trying a piece, began to devour them ravenously.
After eating, Levi felt its aura slightly increase from the Ninth Ring, almost imperceptibly, probably because the materials were too low-level.
He then exchanged them for some better things, all materials above the Sixth Ring. Seven Treasures' eyes lit up, and it ate even more happily this time, its momentum rising steadily.
In just a few days, it went from the early stage of the Ninth Ring to the middle stage, and then stopped. Levi could only take out extremely precious Ninth Ring materials.
"Wow, that's it, Master!"
Seven Treasures inhaled violently, and its momentum began to skyrocket. Finally, after reaching the peak of the Ninth Ring, it clutched its round belly and lay in the void.
"Full, Seven Treasures is full."
At this time, it had become a Ninth Ring peak-level treasure.
Through the Primal Soul Artifact Crafting Method, Levi knew that to go further, it needed to be fed Divine objects, and his own Primal Soul also needed to advance to Legendary.
"What a magical secret method, this is an epoch-making research!"
Levi was excited.
In this way, every Primal Soul Wizard, in addition to binding a soul weapon, could also bind another treasure. The soul weapon could be continuously refined to improve its quality.
After the treasure nurtured spirituality and became a being similar to a living creature, it could directly devour rare materials to improve, simple and crude, but extremely expensive. Ordinary people simply couldn't afford this gold-devouring beast. Before and after, this guy ate trillions of Great Stones.
Of course, if a very strong treasure wasn't needed, the consumption wouldn't be so exaggerated.
He put the Primal Soul Artifact Crafting Method in the Nora Council's knowledge base to earn usage fees and popularize it. In the near future, Primal Soul artifact crafting would definitely be a trend.
Three months later.
Nightmare World.
Swallowing Heaven Great Domain, Flesh Mountain Small World.
A mass of fat-like behemoth was dancing wildly in the wilderness, spewing out blazing white flames. Its enemy was a seven-inch-tall figure, displaying seven colors.
"Seven Calamity Domain!"
As the seven-colored domain covering tens of thousands of miles descended, seven world-destroying calamities appeared out of thin air like millstones, causing the meat mountain overlord to howl in pain. Before long, this mid-Ninth Ring powerhouse died within it.
All that remained was a pile of fat and a Nightmare Crystal.
Levi picked up the spoils, his expression delighted.
"So strong! With Seven Treasures' strength, below Tenth Ring, there are almost no opponents. It can completely be used as half a Tenth Ring. It was worth feeding you all those Ninth Ring materials."
Seven Treasures returned to its bead form and went back into Levi's mind.
"Master, that enemy was too weak."
"I know, I'll find you a strong one right away."
The power of the Seven Calamities is truly useful.
Leaving the Devouring Great Domain, Levi arrived at the Lost Domain.
Time passed day by day, and three figures arrived one after another. They were all Nightmare Overlords, already enslaved by Levi's Black Emperor Enslavement.
"Tell me what you know."
Levi closed his eyes and listened to the reports.
The Pain Overlord, who once belonged to the Rot Lord, said, "Master, after the first defeat, the Lost Monarch used its connections and relationships to start a large-scale conscription throughout the Nightmare World. It is also holding a large-scale sacrificial ceremony with several top monarchs to awaken the sleeping Supreme Will."
Levi frowned slightly, "Awaken the Supreme Will?"
"Yes, the Supreme Will of the Nightmare World has been dormant for many years. Only it can summon those ambitious monarchs who are unwilling to submit to each other. Otherwise, it would be impossible to gather enough troops, even in a thousand years, let alone a hundred."
"Are there no Eleventh Rings in the Nightmare World? Like an incarnation of the Supreme Will."
"There is, its name is the Lord of Fear... As far as I know, ten thousand years ago, during the war between the Nightmare and the Star Realm, it fought against the Father of Gods and the Mother of All Gods, two supreme powerhouses, and after damaging its origin, it returned to the Supreme Will to recuperate."
"How many Tenth Rings does the Lost Monarch plan to recruit this time?"
"This subordinate does not know."
"When will it be completed approximately?"
"It is unclear. According to past practice, it will take a hundred years at the shortest, and three to five hundred years at the longest. The longer the preparation time, the more Tenth Rings will be mobilized.
During the Ancient Era, we prepared for a thousand years at most. In that battle, three hundred Nightmare Monarchs were mobilized, and the largest conflict in history erupted with the Star Realm. More than eighty Monarch powerhouses fell, and more than a hundred gods were dragged down from the Altar."
"I see. Is there any news of the Twilight Demon King?"
"It appeared in the Blood Sea Great Domain some time ago. I went to investigate, but it was too vigilant, and our capture operation failed."
"A Ninth Ring can't catch an Eighth Ring, huh... Never mind, if you find any more information about it, report it to me immediately, and I will take action myself."
"Yes!"
Two years later.
Levi left the Forgotten Land. In addition to the Red Scale Race and Black Scales Race, he also gained many other races that had become extinct in the Pan-Multiverse.
The silver spaceship plunged into the darkness. The second to last stop on his journey was the Black Ruins Domain, where the Worm Overlord's This Venerable One was hiding.
Three years later.
Nora Calendar 1730.
Levi's mental power reached 65,000 points, leaving only 10,000 to the limit. At his cultivation speed, it was not far off.
Moreover, after these years of creating his own spells, he felt that he was very close to researching the prototype of a Tenth Ring spell.
There are three essential conditions for advancing to Legendary:
1. Mental power at its limit.
2. Mastery of an original Tenth Ring spell prototype.
3. Refining a Legendary item suitable for oneself. If one wants to work part-time, one must prepare multiple Legendary items to obtain the corresponding Legendary profession.
A non-essential, icing-on-the-cake condition that can increase the success rate.
1. Increase the upper limit of mental power; needless to say, it will definitely be beneficial.
2. Enhance knowledge reserves and master more original spells.
3. Refine a potion called "Sauron's Legendary Blessing," abbreviated as "Blessing Potion." Its materials require at least 1 Holy Medicine and 5 Holy Medicines.
The effect is a fixed 10% increase in success rate.
There are no restrictions on the types of Holy Medicine and Holy Medicine, as long as they belong to the corresponding faction. However, for Levi's Chaos faction, he needs 4 Holy Medicines and 20 Holy Medicines.
The Holy Medicines are fine; he has already collected them through various channels over the years. As for the Holy Medicines, there are no clues so far. He estimates that the Nora Council should have some, and he can exchange them directly with his merits.
In short, he is full of confidence in advancing to Legendary.
The biggest problem now is how to solve the multiple Legendary professions issue.
Having multiple professions will reduce the success rate, but so far, no one in the Wizard Civilization has heard of combining Legendary Strange Objects.
He can only take it one step at a time.
If possible, he would also like to improve the quality of the [Element Certificate] to make it even better, enough to be comparable to those Primordial Relics.
Simply synthesizing seven Sun Flare Strange Objects seems to grant control over Chaos Power, but the quality may not be high. If he uses the [Element Certificate] as a foundation, integrates seven Legendary-level Strange Objects from different factions, and refines the Candle of Light into it, it would be absolutely perfect.
Ten years passed quickly.
Nora Calendar 1740.
Ancient Dragon Continent.
High in the sky, the calamity slowly dissipated. Elena stood on the top of the Wizard Tower, panting: "The power of this Spiritual Treasure Tribulation is no less than a Ninth Ring Calamity. If I didn't have various means and enough strength to withstand Ninth Ring, I might not have been able to overcome it."
A small black figure flew lightly and landed in Elena's palm. It had visible feminine features and was quite similar to Elena, like a little princess.
Elena gently stroked the little figure:
"Interesting, is this the Primal Soul Artifact Crafting Method?"
Her best Strange Object was the [Dark Night Dance], so she refined it into her own Spiritual Treasure. The first time a Spiritual Treasure transforms, it will imitate its master's appearance.
"Master, who am I?"
A timid girl's voice echoed in her mind.
"You are... Night Girl."
Elena continued her seclusion. Her Qi Sect Dao was not far from the Eighth Ring. She only needed another epiphany to break through this window paper.
Gondor City.
Holy Infant used the Strange Object [Golden Sun Gyre], and Victor used the Strange Object [Golden King Heavenly Light Armor] to refine their own Spiritual Treasures. Only Gandalf had not yet refined a Spiritual Treasure.
Next, they only needed to constantly refine them with their Primal Souls and feed them with some materials to improve their quality and quickly grow into combat power.
Their realm was insufficient, making it difficult to unleash the full power of Ninth Ring Spiritual Treasures. However, when combined with Wizard Towers and other means, they all possessed genuine Ninth Ring combat power.
Time passed.
On this day, Black Ruins Domain.
A silver stream of light pierced through the air and stopped in front of a black world.
"Twilight Hall Master, you've finally arrived."
On the top of the world, a fat, white youth sitting cross-legged in the void opened his eyes.
Worm Overlord.
His main body was a [Wormen Race], a race that was relatively active in ancient times. They were good at parasitism and creating clones, making them extremely difficult to kill. Because they endangered the rule of the Giant Empire and caused many panic incidents, they were exterminated.
The Worm Overlord was one of the few survivors in the world. He was born more than 100,000 years ago. After achieving Tenth Ring, he chose to become a Plane Dominator in pursuit of a long Lifespan. When the Amethyst Saint established the Myriad Races Council, he invited him out of seclusion.
Little did it know, this would lead it to a point of no return. Standing before it was the brightest supernova of the Nora era. Aside from the Blazing Sun God Wizard Eamon, even other Legendary Wizards paled in comparison.
Twilight Hall Master Levi.
To date, he had personally killed two Tenth Ring powerhouses, one True God and one demon. He also contributed to the recent demise of the Gray Mist Monarch. In other words, apart from the Netherworld, he had already provoked three of the four juggernauts.
He approached, his eyes confident and composed, and said:
"Nice to meet you, I'm Levi."
"Are you here to take my life?"
"Not necessarily. If you are willing to serve me, I have ways to preserve your life. It wasn't easy for you to cultivate to the Tenth Ring. Are you really willing to die and disappear without a trace?"
"Heh, you seem very confident."
"Enough to kill you."
"Since the great fusion of the Pan-Multiverse, hundreds, if not thousands, of Plane Dominators have fallen. Why didn't you preserve their lives? In the end, you just want me to continue working for you, becoming a tool for Nora's rise."
"You only see the few thousand who died, but you don't see the trillions of living beings who were sheltered by the Nora Council and survived. Even without plane fusion, these people who have become plane slaves would still face various natural and man-made disasters."
"No matter how high-sounding you make it, it's just Sauron acting for his own selfish interests. The Myriad Races Council lost, but I don't think we were wrong. We just wanted to survive."
"We too... So you want to be buried with the world behind you? You think I can't track down the avatars you've scattered throughout the Multiverse?"
Levi's words changed the Worm Overlord's expression.
Suddenly, behind Levi, a familiar figure in a blood-red robe appeared. It was Blood Vortex Venerable, its former subordinate.
"Blood Vortex? You... you submitted to him long ago? You didn't die?"
Blood Vortex Venerable said, "Yes, Lord Levi has a world of his own within him. I integrated the Black Swamp World into it and became the Lord of the Secret Realm, preserving my life. Now, I have gone a step further and reached the late Eighth Ring."
As a secondary plane, it could also benefit from Mana's power. Even Martha, who had very little potential, had already advanced to the Seventh Ring, let alone it.
The Worm Overlord fell silent.
Now it seemed that Levi was telling the truth.
But was it, a dignified Tenth Ring, a Plane Dominator who had shaken the Multiverse for ten thousand years, really going to compromise and become a bird in a cage?
How would the world laugh at it if they heard of this?
"I'll give you ten seconds to consider. Do you want to die without a burial place, with no afterlife... or live on, follow me to witness a great cause, witness the new world after the fall of the gods and endless demons, it all depends on you!"
Levi said calmly, each word piercing the Worm Overlord's heart. Behind him, the River Styx flowed mightily, and hell steeds neighed as they charged forth. Lyon was ready.
Not long ago, it had digested the Gray Mist Monarch's True Spirit. With a few more Tenth Rings, it could advance to the mid-Ninth Ring. Levi was amazed by its speed.
The Worm Overlord was torn between heaven and hell.
If it lived, would it really see that so-called new world?
Gods gone, demons extinct... was that possible? The juggernauts had lived for hundreds of millions of years, surviving many great epochal changes without perishing. Did Nora really have a chance to pull them down from their altars and end everything? It didn't know.
It only knew that if it died, it would never see that day! Without gods and demons, without Nightmares, with its Tenth Ring body, it couldn't imagine how great that world would be. It would no longer have to act according to the whims of the juggernauts.
The eagle strikes the sky, the fish swims in the shallows, and all creatures compete freely in the frosty sky! No one knew what the new world would be like. It might repeat the same mistakes, or it might be full of vitality... But the Worm Overlord was certain that this stagnant, unchanging old world of billions of years was already devoid of interest.
So, to hell with dignity!
Today, it would also follow its heart, just like when it was weak and climbed up step by step, everything for the sake of living!
"5, 4, 2, 1..."
"I am willing to submit to you!"
The plump youth suddenly prostrated himself before Levi, expressing his submission. His eyes were bright, and there was a hint of anticipation and relief in his eyes.
Levi snapped his fingers, and a Round Table phantom appeared.
A figure in a Crimson Flame Magic Robe appeared in the deep sky, standing with his hands behind his back, his eyes deep, faintly possessing a domineering aura that had existed for countless ages.
Blazing Sun God Wizard Eamon.
The Worm Overlord looked up, his expression tense.
"Sward greets... the Great Council Speaker!"
Eamon smiled and said, "I'm glad you chose the option of living. As long as you're alive, there's a glimmer of hope, isn't there? Maybe after I die, after Levi dies, if your opportunity arrives, you might even become a leader of the Nora Civilization."
The Worm Overlord paused, then said with a wry smile, "I have no such intention. I just want to live... I want to see the new world that Mister Levi speaks of, and I will work towards it. Either way, it's death. Rather than dying here today in utter frustration, I'd rather die on the road to the future."
Eamon laughed:
"Don't be nervous, I'm just joking. Next, Levi will handle your affairs. In the future, you will serve him. Once you have made contributions, I can add a Supreme Seat for you in front of all the citizens of Nora.
Welcome to Nora!"
He extended his right hand and shook the Worm Overlord's pale, plump hand.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
The Worm Overlord said "thank you" three times in a row.
It never expected that one day it would be accepted by the Nora Council. It had always thought that from the moment it joined the Myriad Races Council, it would be irreconcilable with Nora, with no possibility of coexistence.
Eamon's phantom disappeared, and Levi said, "Mister Sward, to ensure the safety of both of us, I need to use some special means to control you. I hope you cooperate... When the time is right, I will naturally lift the restrictions for you."
The Worm Overlord is a Tenth Ring existence, so Levi only dares to merge with it after using Black Emperor Enslavement. Otherwise, if it goes back on its word or causes trouble, the consequences would be unimaginable.
For this kind of Tenth Ring existence, not to mention the Oath Sword, even the Sword of Covenant, the supreme treasure of the Myriad Races Council, cannot forcibly enslave it. The only way Levi can think of is Black Emperor Dragon Enslavement, this is Supreme Power!
The Worm Overlord opened its mind, allowing the power of the Black Emperor Dragon to pour into its crown. After an indescribable sensation, it opened its eyes and looked at the man in front of it.
"Master! Sward is at your service!"
"Let's go, first take me to your world."
The Blackwater World is a large world, many times larger than the Ancient Banyan Immortal Realm, but like the Black Swamp World, it is filled with miasma and poisonous fog, unsuitable for ordinary creatures to survive, but suitable for special needs of different worms and alien races.
Dozens of extraordinary races live on it, with hundreds of Sixth Ring or higher powerhouses, all of whom are the Worm Overlord's dependents and servants. There are no Ninth Ring powerhouses; they all scattered and fled with the dissolution of the Myriad Races Council. Those who didn't leave are all Worm Overlord's clones.
Levi took Mana to survey the mountains and terrain.
"How is it? Can it be merged?"
"Yes, but this kind of large world may take hundreds of years."
"Time is not a problem, I can wait. I might as well retreat here for a hundred years. After merging it, you should be able to advance to Ninth Ring, right?"
"Definitely."
Levi asked again, "Sward, no one here should know about this, right?"
The Worm Overlord said, "Master, please rest assured, this place is extremely hidden. If you hadn't obtained my molted skin and possessed Supreme Advanced Perception, you would never have been able to discover it. I have also recalled all my clones, and they will also guard here next."
"The matter should not be delayed, begin!"
