Endless sea.
Spark Wizarding Academy.
Huffman's office.
"You're not dead?" Levi asked.
"Nonsense, who am I, Huffman? How can I die so easily? The life of a halfling is very tough!" Huffman said with a smile.
"You were the one who faked my death."
"yes."
"Thank you very much."
"You kid... Alas, it's not appropriate to call you that now. After all, you have already entered the fourth ring. It's hard to imagine."
"Didn't you also step into the Fourth Ring?"
"How can they be the same? I have been practicing for many years, and you have only been practicing for a short time... To reach the fourth ring, I have already exhausted all my life's efforts and luck." Huffman was speechless.
"Although you halflings are not immortal, your lifespan is slightly longer than that of ordinary wizards. You still have a good hope of getting the fifth ring." Levi comforted.
"Forget it, stop comforting me. I accept my fate. Anyway, I will teach here and make money in the future. I have the protection of the Yuanhun wizard and I want a stable life." After experiencing the Rapids City Incident, Huffman has become indifferent to money.
"Yes, being alive is more important than anything else." Levi agreed deeply.
After chatting with Huffman for a while, Levi left.
He felt much better knowing that Huffman was still alive.
He was thinking about identifying the five-ring magical weapon, so he had no time to waste.
He thought about it and decided to go find Ms. Triss.
…
Pluto City.
The witch's shop.
Celia is still here guarding the shop, and the little witch Klee is still helping.
"Celia, is Ms. Triss here?" Levi asked.
Celia was stunned when she heard the familiar voice.
"Sir Levi, didn't you go on a long journey? It's only been seven years, and you're back? Oh my God, you're already... in the fourth ring?" Celia opened her mouth with an incredulous look in her eyes.
She felt Levi's mental power and found that it was indeed not on the same level as hers.
Levi smiled slightly: "Lucky, it worked."
"I'm really so envious...I'd be willing to trade my lifelong singleness for a chance at a fourth ring." Celia's tone was filled with nothing but envy.
"Work hard, Miss Celia. Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% talent." Levi thought about it and told a white lie.
"Thanks for your encouragement... By the way, Ms. Triss is here. If you need help, go and find her." Celia sighed and continued reading.
"Sir Levi is handsome again." The little witch Klee also said playfully.
Levi pinched her little face and chanted a spell to enter the witch's house.
at the same time.
In the inner city of Pluto City.
Aini Mansion.
The top floor of the wizard tower.
Eniya opened his eyes in the secret training room. His eyes were as sharp as lightning.
Golden elemental swords were spinning around him continuously.
“Hahaha, fifteen years! I only secluded myself for fifteen years, and I have completed the transformation from the third ring to the fourth ring! Not only that, I have successfully passed the transition period. Only in this way can I be considered a true fourth-ring wizard!”
Enya laughed heartily, feeling indescribably happy.
He is rather reserved and silent in front of outsiders.
In fact, when he is alone, he is also a reserved person.
"Don't be proud. Mother said that on the list of people from the Witch House going to the Dark Ancient Tower this time, there is a child of the water element, the Phantom Witch Sera. She started meditating at the age of three, became a formal wizard at the age of fifteen, and reached the second ring at the age of thirty... Now she is already a senior fourth ring wizard, and she is only one hundred and fifty years old!
Compared to her, I am still inferior. We were born in the same year, but I have just entered the fourth ring road. There is nothing to be proud of.
Sir Levi, you should not have reached the fourth ring yet, come out and see what he is doing, hehe."
Enya still has some desire to win and wants to be stronger than Levi in front of his mother.
"Master Enya, you have made a breakthrough? I will tell Ms. Triss the good news right away." Drake, the old butler of the Five Rings, said happily.
"Drake, don't tell mother yet. I plan to go to the witch's house in person and give her some surprises." Enya said with a smile.
"Hahaha, I understand, go ahead." Drake said.
Eniya walked with a brisk pace, feeling quite proud and triumphant.
He arrived at Levi's residence and rang the doorbell.
A white wolf girl in a maid outfit opened the door.
"Sir Aniya? Is there anything wrong?" Aljeta was cooking.
"Aljeta, where is Lord Levi?" Enya said with a smile.
"The master is out... I don't know where he went. He never tells us servants when he goes out." Aljeta pouted.
"I understand. Pluto City has been in unrest recently. Miss Aljeta, please remember to close the magic circle." Enya reminded warmly.
"Thank you, you are such a rare good wizard." Aljeta said with blinking eyes, deeply moved.
Moreover, he is handsome.
Of course, compared to his master, this kind of handsomeness is nothing worth mentioning!
…
Triss's residence.
The lady is taking a bath again.
Levi could only wait patiently below.
Not long after, Triss came to the living room barefoot in a bathrobe. She didn't use magic to dry her hair, but preferred to let it dry naturally, just like Levi didn't like to use a hair dryer in his previous life.
"You really keep surprising me." Triss suddenly sighed. "In seven years, you have advanced to the fourth ring and completed the liquefaction of mental power. Looking at the Witch House, only a very few elemental children can do it."
Levi thought it was not seven years, but three years.
But he won't explain, which is better.
If Triss knew that he would be completely liquefied in three years, he was worried that Triss would not be able to resist and dissect him.
"Good luck." Levi smiled slightly.
"You seldom approach me on your own initiative. Is there something you want to talk to me about this time?" Triss asked.
"I want to ask about the Dark Ancient Tower..." Levi thought for a moment and said with some embarrassment.
Triss had actually guessed that Levi would ask this.
She looked unhappy, and then whispered, "Alas, I didn't get you a place. I will compensate you with something else of equal value. I, Triss, will not easily owe favors to others."
If Levi hadn't gotten the small tower, he might have been disappointed.
So he pretended to be slightly disappointed, then smiled: "Madam, don't mind. I am not particularly obsessed with the Dark Ancient Tower."
"Actually, I have selfish motives in wanting you to join the Dark Tower. Well, let's not talk about it." Ms. Triss said.
"Madam, I have a favor to ask of you." Levi took the opportunity to say.
"What's going on?" Triss asked.
"I would like you to identify a magical weapon for me."
"What kind of magical weapon? Take it out and let us see it."
Levi hesitated for a moment, but still took out the snake-shaped ring magic weapon with the head and tail connected.
Triss took the magic weapon and seemed to be reminiscing.
"This magical weapon seems to be the family magic weapon of a five-ring family in the inner sea area, the Devo family...but they were destroyed by the black wizard, and the magic weapon disappeared. It seems that little guy, you went on a long journey this time to hunt down the black wizard." Triss smiled.
"It's just a chance..."
"Okay. It's a piece of cake for me to identify this magical weapon. Compared with the qualification to enter the Dark Ancient Tower, it's nothing. Just consider this as a gift from me as a friendship... I will find a way to compensate you in the future." Triss said.
"Okay, thank you ma'am, looking forward to it!" Levi joked.
After gradually understanding the temper of this Yuanhun wizard, he began to relax.
"I'm optimistic about you. I have a feeling that one day, you'll be famous in the Endless Sea, young man." Triss patted Levi's shoulder with her slender hand, her eyes affirmative.
"If you don't enter the Yuanhun realm, you don't have the qualifications to be famous in the Endless Sea. I'm still far from it."
"That's true...but I believe you. By the way, a senior wants to meet you. I wonder if you are interested." Triss asked.
"Which senior?"
"Lady Idrasera."
Levi was shocked.
Isn’t this the pure-blooded dragon fairy banyan dragon?
Why would such a strong man want to see me?
Could it be that he discovered his identity as a dragon?
Levi's dragon bloodline has long since separated from the existing pure-blood dragon system.
Logically speaking, the other party shouldn't notice it.
"Then let me meet you." Levi said after thinking for a while.
Triss put on her robe and was about to take Levi out the door when a handsome and elegant silver-haired wizard came towards them excitedly.
It was Enya who had just made a breakthrough and came to report the good news.
"Mother, Lord Levi..." Enya stayed where she was.
"Aniya, you have made a breakthrough?" Triss looked calm, but she was secretly delighted.
"Yes, Lord Levi, you have also made a breakthrough?" Enia asked.
"Yes...wait, Ms. Triss is your mother?" Levi looked at Triss with a strange expression.
Triss shrugged and nodded.
"Just for you to know. I don't like to let others know about this."
"I see." Levi thought thoughtfully.
Now it seems that it was Triss who arranged for Enya and myself to carry out the mission.
Just now, Triss said that she had selfish motives in letting herself participate in the Dark Tower, which might also be related to Eniya.
"Aniya, is there anything else?" Triss asked.
Enya was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "No more."
He just wanted to get some encouragement and praise from his mother, who was a Yuanhun wizard.
However, the mother was obviously very calm, as if breaking through the fourth ring was not a big deal.
也是，李维阁下明明比自己闭关的晚，却先于自己突破四环。
有这样的珠玉在前，难怪母亲如此平淡。
等等，李维阁下，该不会是母亲和别人的孩子吧。
艾尼亚胡思乱想。
“我，总归是不如他啊……”
艾尼亚有些失落的离开这里，打算一个人静静。
李维有些尴尬。
“女士，这样好吗？”
他已经看出来特莉丝的用意了。
“我不能让他因为是元魂巫师的儿子就骄傲自满，那样在残酷的巫师世界，怎么死的都不知道。”特莉丝语重心长的说道。“而且我想给他树立一个榜样，一个让他追赶的目标。”
李维沉默。
他跟着特莉丝女士来到了魔树下方。
仙榕龙此刻又在沉睡。
特莉丝念诵了一些咒语。
没过多久，仙榕龙缓缓睁开双眼，望着出现在自己面前的小不点。
“多谢了，特莉丝。”她说道。
下一刻，李维就感觉天旋地转，来到了一处奇异的空间。
“这里是魔树内部，我们说话，任何人都听不到。”伊卓瑟拉说道。
“前辈找我何事？”李维问道。
“你不是普通的龙裔，我能感觉出来，你体内有超出我认知的龙族血脉，而且不止一种……”
李维沉默，看来对于纯血龙族来说，自己身上的龙族血脉，它们是可以产生感应的。
“你不必惊慌，我身为魔女之家的守护者，肯定不会把你怎么样的，而且那样对我没有什么好处，把你叫来，是因为我想和你做一笔交易。”她说道。
“什么交易？”李维没有直接拒绝，问道。
他不过四环巫师，这个仙榕龙，连特莉丝都称为前辈，怕不是七环，乃至八环了的老龙女了。
“我想让你进入黑暗古塔，去取一件宝物，那件宝物就在黑暗古塔的第五层，魔女之家曾经有人见过，是一件圣杯样式的宝物。”
听到这里，李维心中一动。
圣杯……百分之九十，指的是不老圣杯！
由森林王者，仙榕龙·迪乌西斯的身躯铸造的第四件宝物。
这不老圣杯，居然在黑暗古塔里面。
怪不得李维在古圣位面翻了个底朝天，也没有找到。
“前辈，我没有进入黑暗古塔的资格……况且，以我的实力，如何抢得过那些五环巫师和元魂巫师，这宝物对于前辈，肯定重要，不是我不想帮您，是我有心无力。”李维无奈说道。
“黑暗古塔的资格，你现在有了。”伊卓瑟拉淡淡说道。
然后，一朵艳丽的花朵包裹着一座小塔，出现在这片神奇的空间。
而后，小塔进入李维体内，消失不见，也没有散发那种吸引其他巫师的光芒。
“前辈，这是……”
“对我而言，获得一个钥匙，不算难事，这个钥匙也不在魔女之家的名额范围内，而且这件事也不方便让魔女之家知道，这是我们俩之间的秘密，小家伙。”伊卓瑟拉解释道。
李维心中震撼，不愧是纯血龙族，好强大！
他现在居然有两个进入黑暗之塔的名额了。
除了自己，他还可以带一个人进去。
真的是人生处处是惊喜。
“那圣杯，从某位进入黑暗古塔的巫师描述来看，我怀疑是由仙榕龙的血肉铸造，之前进去的很多巫师，包括元魂巫师，都曾经想取走，却是未能成功，甚至是一些龙裔巫师也试过，都未能取走，我怀疑……只有仙榕龙血脉的龙裔巫师，能够取走。”
“可是我虽然是龙裔，但也不是仙榕龙龙裔。”
他的那些呼吸法中，自始至终，都没有仙榕龙呼吸法。
“我知道你不是，所以我也只是让你试试而已，对你而言，尝试一下，没有坏处。”伊卓瑟拉说道，她有种感觉，李维这种特殊血脉，有可能成功。
“其实本来有比你更合适的人选，花之女巫那姑娘，她的体内，有很淡的仙榕龙血脉，只可惜她去位面旅行了，我也没办法联系上她。”
李维内心有些惊讶。
“百花骑士肯定不是龙裔，她体内的仙榕龙血脉，应该是来自呼吸法……原来如此，怪不得叫做百花。”
仙榕龙乃是大地属性的，故而在古圣位面神话中称其为“森林王者”，其能力类似于生命学派的一些法术，可以促进万物勃勃生长。
想了想，李维最终说道：“前辈，我可以尝试一下，不过交易的代价是什么？”
在李维心中，不老圣杯可是自己的囊中之物了。
就算是取走，那也是自己的，怎么可能送给伊卓瑟拉。
“一件魂器。”
伊卓瑟拉说道。
然后，一道流光出现在李维面前。
一本看起来平平无奇的古书出现在李维面前。
“这是【万灵之书】，是我杀死一位死亡学派的黑巫师后得到的六环魂器。
虽然只是六环魂器，但是这【万灵之书】，在死亡学派，也是赫赫有名。
制造它的黑巫师叫做【汲魂魔巫】，他另辟蹊径，放弃了传统的召唤之道，依靠对应的黑巫术，凝练了成千上万的恶灵于魂器中，更是在里面豢养了一头由七环巫师的元魂炼制的元魂级恶灵。
依靠这魂器，寻常元魂巫师，根本不是其对手。
而且，这魂器的进阶，比起其他魂器，也更为简单。
只需要不断炼制更多，更强大的恶灵加入其中，就可以实现进阶。
理论上，只要你实力够强，凝练的恶灵越多，这【万灵之书】，有机会蜕变为十万，百万，千万，乃至【亿灵之书】，一念间，亿万恶灵开道，人间变为炼狱，不是问题。”
伊卓瑟拉的声音充满**。
李维的内心火热，随后冷静下来。
魂器是很好，什么五环巫器，比起来都弱爆了。
可问题是，不老圣杯那种级别的宝物，和【真知魔镜】、【茶话圆桌】他们一样，已经脱离巫器范畴了，属于索伦炼制的特殊宝物。
其功能绝对比所谓的魂器要强大。
再说了，没有元魂巫师修为，根本没办法动用魂器。
而且李维进阶元魂后，肯定要炼制属于自己的本命魂器。
这万灵之书，只能作为陪衬。
再说了，这玩意儿一听就是典型的黑巫师巫器。
李维也不是那种十恶不赦，动不动灭城杀人的大魔头。
“前辈，这魂器，未免过于歹毒。”李维忍不住说道。
“怕啥，只要看见你用这个魂器的人，成为其中恶灵就行了。”
“……”
说的太有道理了，李维无言以对。
这仙榕龙，也是个狠角色啊。
“前辈，我只能说试试，以我的能力，大概率取不回来。”李维想了想，说道。
“等你取来那圣杯，我自然会将魂器给你，若是没有取回来，那就算了。”仙榕龙说道。
“我尽力。”
“切记，今天之事，是我们两个人的秘密哦，小家伙。”
“明白！”
……
离开魔树。
李维回到了家中。
“伊卓瑟拉看样子也不知道那圣杯具体是啥……我到时候遇见了，若是可以直接收服，我干嘛给她，那魂器虽然好，但是对我来说，过于遥远。”
李维心中已经有定计。
伊卓瑟拉也没有说必须要他拿到圣杯，她也只是让李维试试，不抱太大希望。
“莫比乌斯，厄尔尼斯，奥瑟罗斯，你们三位觉得，刚刚那位，是迪乌西斯的后裔吗？”他忽然问道。
“太久远了，仙榕龙一族数量极其稀少，看样子还真有可能是的。”莫比乌斯说道。
李维也不再纠结。
以他的实力，能不能到达五层，都是未知数呢。
一个月后。
李维正在家中修行之际，赛利亚忽然给他传讯，说是特莉丝女士有事找他。
“应该是鉴定完毕了。”
李维心情有些小激动。
五环巫器啊，这可是很多五环巫师都没有的好东西。
魂器之下的最强巫器！
来到特莉丝住处。
果不其然。
特莉丝微笑的看着李维。
“运气不错，这个五环巫器，不愧是一个家族的传承巫器，上面固化了三种五环法术，二十余种三环，四环法术，以及不少低阶法术。
其他不必多说，就说这三种最重要的五环法术。
分别是【灼世炎蛇】，【环世之盾】，【衔尾蛇之门】。
第一个，不必多说，乃是这巫器最重要的攻击手段，凝聚一条威力不错的五环火蛇，对敌人进行追踪打击，我估计一般五环巫师，都不敢硬抗，五环以下，没有什么底牌，触之必死。
当然，消耗的术力也很庞大，以你如今的术力，最多使用一次，就会被吸干。
第二个，则是可以形成一道五环的防护法术，中规中矩，防御力还凑合。
第三个，是这个巫器的精髓所在，也是其可以称之为极品的核心。
施展【衔尾蛇之门】，在你面前凭空生成一个短距离传送门，可以将你传送到视线内，任何地方！
当然，最远不能超过一千里。而且，使用后，需要间隔七天时间。
At the same time, in some specific spaces, teleportation may not be possible.
There are also some special space spells that may limit your teleportation.
But generally speaking, space magic is knowledge that only Yuanhun wizards are familiar with, so you just need to avoid provoking Yuanhun wizards.
There are many other small functions. For example, there is a fourth-ring spell called [Snake Tongue], which can summon nearby snake creatures to fight for you.
I won't go into detail, just read the instructions yourself.
Oh, by the way, this magical weapon is called the Fire Ouroboros."
Levi solemnly took the instruction manual and magic weapon from Ms. Triss with a look of gratitude.
"Thank you ma'am!"
"Stop talking. I didn't get the Dark Ancient Tower qualification that I promised you. As a Soul Master, I'm really embarrassed..."
Triss sighed.
“…”
Levi left Triss excitedly.
"Ania, Ania, your mother has prepared two five-ring magical weapons for you. When will you be promoted to the fifth ring?" Triss said to herself as she watched Levi leave.
If Levi heard this, he would probably vomit blood on the spot, and then curse inwardly:
"Big dog owner!"
…
Three days later.
Levi quietly found a secluded place.
Tested the power of the Fire Ouroboros.
After draining all his magical power at once, a hundred-foot-long flaming snake flew out, steaming and boiling the sea surface in front of it, and the scene was quite spectacular.
In comparison, his own [Fire Dragon Tribulation] is far inferior.
Of course, after he is promoted to the fifth ring, the power of the Fire Dragon Tribulation will definitely not be worse than this [Scorching World Flame Snake].
"Oh my god, three hundred and twenty calories. It's a miracle that I survived." Levi felt a little scared.
After all the magic power is fully restored.
He tried the [Universal Shield] again, but his mental strength was drained again.
Then, a giant shield made of unbreakable fire snakes flew around him, and he remained motionless despite the attacks of the succubus, poisonous fire corpse demon and others.
Not only that, the fire damage rebounded from the giant flame shield almost burned the poisonous fire corpse.
"Too strong! What a pity! If I had this in the Ice Realm, maybe Salman and I could join forces and catch the witch off guard and seriously injure her."
The next day.
Levi regrouped and tried the one he was most looking forward to, [Ouroboros Gate].
After reciting the spell, there was no response at all.
"Not enough magic power?"
Levi tried many times.
I found that the magic weapon was still motionless.
He left here reluctantly.
The most core function of this portal should be a very advanced five-ring spell. With his current level of cultivation, even with a magical weapon, he cannot afford the consumption of magical power.
…
The 1134th year of the Holy Calendar, the original month.
The 103rd year of the Great Crusade.
Levi returned to the human world.
Dusk Island.
The Temple of Dusk.
Levi did not use the [Tea Talk Round Table] to hold the 32nd round table meeting of the Dusk Knights.
After hundreds of years, all the knights have gathered together in the world!
Inside the main hall.
At the round table, this time, everyone was no longer meeting based on consciousness projection.
Blood Knight, Black Knight, Holy Ape Knight, Golden Lion Knight, Ash Knight, Divine Light Knight, Goddess Knight, Silver Dragon Knight, Dark Moon Knight!
"The nine official members of the Dusk Knights have all arrived!" said the deputy leader, Blood Knight, excitedly.
Levi looked at the round table which was already half full and felt a little emotional.
It has been 113 years since the establishment of the Dusk Knights, and it is also a century-old secret organization!
Thinking back to the beginning, this organization was just an idea of himself and Emperor Mu, and the Blood Knight was completely fooled into it by Levi.
I am now a level four expert.
In addition, there are six level two strong men and three level one strong men. They are not top-notch in this world, but they are definitely not weak.
“Everyone has already known the Holy Ape Knight and the Goddess Knight for a long time, so I won’t introduce them to you.
Everyone, as the demon tide revives, the power of elements gradually returns to the human world, and all major planes converge.
As far as I know, many wizarding organizations in the wizarding world have begun to send vanguard troops to settle in the human world!
In order to have a share of the future wave, we, the Twilight Knights, must not fall behind!
This time I came back, I also wanted to lead everyone, the church, the wizards, and those old secret organizations, to seize our interests in this era of upheaval!
Before that, everyone should work hard to improve your own strength. For example, Blood Knights and Black Knights, you are already at the peak of Bloodthirst Knights. The next step is to reach the Blood Source Realm, so hurry up.
Goddess, Silver Dragon, Dark Moon Knight, you must strive to break through the blood-thirst realm as soon as possible and master the method of transforming blood into wings. Otherwise, this world is so big, how are you going to travel on horseback?
Finally, the [Extreme Plan] that you mentioned has always been the direction I want to work towards.
I have placed the subsequent knowledge of "Bloodline Rune" in the temple. While you are practicing, you should hurry up to decipher the mystery of Bloodline Rune, create the talent mark of our knights, and thus give birth to the real extraordinary power!"
"It's so exciting. I have a feeling that the era of us knights is coming!" Mudi rubbed his hands, extremely excited.
After the meeting, all members immediately began to work in an orderly manner.
Practice, research, and honing your skills... everyone has their own things to do, and it is extremely fulfilling!
Levi returned to the ancient saint plane and began a short retreat.
Three months later, in the Imperial Palace.
Levi was as fierce as a snake and a dragon, sweating profusely as he finished practicing the last round of the Golden Snake Breathing Method.
Following the prompt on the proficiency panel, he stopped.
Levi——
Golden Snake Breathing Method: Level 14 (extreme, can evolve/advanced), special effects: Scales of Transformation (Level 2), Dragon’s Deterrence, Golden Snake Playing in Water.
…
"Is the peak of the second transformation of blood source the limit of my Golden Snake Breathing Method?" Levi pondered in his heart.
However, he had already anticipated this day, so he was already practicing the corresponding breathing method as the raw material for breaking the limit.
However, it will take a lot of time to practice it up, after all, there are too many limit-breaking points required to break the limit.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to make a second variation on the Golden Snake Breathing Technique to make it more perfect.
Levi noticed that there were suddenly two more options for breaking the limit.
One is [evolvable], the other is [advanced].
You can click on these two options.
"It looks like the panel has been quietly updated again."
He thought about it and clicked it.
Then, a stream of information began to emerge in my mind.
After seeing it, Levi was stunned, and then became excited.
"The conditions for breaking the limit this time are different from the past. As expected, as my realm and knowledge reserves improve, the panel becomes more and more intelligent."
