Promotion failed, although the Halberd Knight is still alive, he is somewhat disheartened. Levi let the Blood Knight comfort him, telling him that once his wounds heal, he could continue working with the battle group or choose to retire and live out the rest of his life peacefully.
Promotion to level six is indeed a huge hurdle. The 18 Twilight Cavalry are selected from among the best of the Dusk Holy Temple, but it does not mean that everyone can reach level six.
Unless, like Levi, one ensures a nearly one hundred percent successful promotion before beginning the breakthrough, behaving like a cheater.
After a new round of competition, the Snapping Turtle Knight defeated some newcomers and returned to the ranks of the 18 Twilight Cavalry. With the lesson of the Halberd Knightās misstep, he became even more cautious about promoting to level six.
Currently, the 18 Twilight Cavalry already have sixteen level six knights, with only the Pheasant Knight and Snapping Turtle Knight yet to reach level six.
The Halberd Knight is not an isolated case. Outside of the 18 Cavalry, such cases have occurred quite frequently in recent years. In front of the sixth-level barrier, simply surviving is a blessing.
Even within the 18 Cavalry, some have nearly lost their lives on the Blood Battle battlefield.
If someday someone suddenly dies in battle, Levi wouldnāt be surprised at all.
The extraordinary world inherently has many unexpected risks, and the Blood Battle even more so.
In these years, besides researching arrays, his meditation practice has not fallen behind.
Currently, his spiritual force has reached 9,800 points, leaving only 1,200 points to reach Seven Rings Perfection.
The spells "Fire Jump" and "Earth to Prison" have both been cultivated to level fifteen. Even the hardest spell, "Micro Lysis Technique," has finally been cultivated to the level of sixteen seventh-circle, theoretically capable of decomposing level seven beings.
However, Levi doesnāt plan to waste such a powerful spell when most enemies can be subdued with a single punch. Unless he encounters a particularly troublesome foe, thereās no need to use the Decomposition Technique. But then it occurred to him, maybe this technique wouldnāt have much side effect if not used on living beings. Why not try it on the seals of an array?
Just over the years, his research has almost pinpointed the weaknesses of this array. Itās time to take action.
Once he releases the Black Phoenix Parrotās body and promotes the Death Ember Dragon to level seven over three years, heāll head to the Netherworld Market and the Dark Ancient Tower.
Time to act.
Levi came to the sky above the relic, his gaze flickering. One by one, the array items fell upon the pillars ahead, serving as an auxiliary array-breaking array.
The incantations echoed, and a beam of white light surged from Leviās fingertips, shooting at one of the pillars, calculated as a node of the array by Levi.
At first, the pillar showed no change. Just as Levi was about to break the array with brute force, he saw the pillar starting to disintegrate inch by inch, with the space around them also beginning to shatter.
The next moment, the pillar disappeared suddenly, aside from that everything remained unchanged.
Levi even had the illusion that the pillar had never appeared, with or without it, it didnāt make a difference.
"This is the Decomposition Technique, negating the existence of an object from the perspective of space."
Everything in the world needs space and time as a support to have meaning.
And if its space concept is erased, that thing naturally ceases to be.
Thus this technique is a forbidden spell among forbidden spells because it is wholly contrary to the natural world.
Levi would use it on inanimate objects at most, not on living beings. Now it seems using the Decomposition Technique to crack an array is indeed a good choice. It doesnāt matter what array it is, itās just erased. This is the power of Seven Rings Lysis Technique!
Rumble!!
Once a pillar is broken, the array begins to destabilize. Taking this opportunity, Levi drew his greatsword, and ceaselessly unleashed Sword Qi that swept across like a storm.
After several days.
The Ten Thousand Flames Sealing Spirit Array had become a field of ruins, Levi collected the broken pillars, as they were good materials for refining arrays or wizard towers.
Once he reaches the eighth-circle, he can also create his own Ten Thousand Flames Sealing Spirit Array. Later, when he catches a black beast, if thereās no place for Crimson Enslavement, he can temporarily seal it within and purify it slowly.
Black Phoenix sensed something, her face excited, and she came to Leviās side.
"Master, you are incredible. I tried for a long time but couldnāt open it, and you managed it so quickly."
Levi said:
"Cracking arrays requires finesse, not brute force. Go retrieve your body."
Black Phoenix nodded. Muttering incantations, she grasped at the void. In Leviās slightly expectant gaze, a black parrotās corpse, as tall as a human, flew out slowly.
Levi asked:
"Is this really the size of your true form?"
Black Phoenix said:
"Yes, Master. Although most transcendent creatures grow in size along with their powers to wield greater strength and physique, the Black Phoenix Parrot does not."
This parrotās corpse is cold, having been dead for thousands of years, yet still exudes a powerful aura, and the body hasnāt decayed.
This is the unique trait of her clan, capable of hibernating the body before death, ensuring it remains undecayed for millennia.
Levi summoned Leon, who transmitted:
"Itās indeed a corpse, without any true soul or remaining soul."
With this assurance, Levi relaxed. Although he enslaved Black Phoenix, he was unfamiliar with the Black Phoenix Parrot clan, fearing they might play some trick to trap him.
Next, he closely observed how Black Phoenix abandoned the Black Pheasant Clan body and returned to her Black Phoenix Parrot self step by step.
And then, the lifeless body began to regain vigor, like an Ash Dragon Egg, recovering liveliness.
As Black Phoenix gleefully opened her eyes, a calm voice arrived.
"Youāre awake? Iāll draw some blood."
At this moment, Levi had been waiting for many years.
Black Phoenix Parrot transformed into a black-dressed woman. She stretched out an arm and said:
"Draw it, Master."
Levi unemotionally drew the blood.
"Next, I will go into seclusion, and you will protect me. When we return to the Wizard World, itās best to maintain your Black Phoenix Parrot form, avoid transforming into a human form."
Black Phoenix said:
"Alright, as you say, Master. But I do quite like the human form."
The Burning Rock World.
In the deserted relic, the master and servant began their secluded and reclusive life.
After several days.
On the other side of the world, above a pitch-black giant city, a crack suddenly tore open.
A powerful level seven aura rushed into this world.
This was a fire element dragon clan with a wingspan of a thousand meters, covered in crimson scales, bearing the most classic appearance of an evil dragon.
Scientific name: Fire Breathing Dragon!
"Hahaha, the great hero Dick has already died of old age. You foolish insects, the great Flame Executioner Terrez has returned!"
