Chapter 1236: Ascension to the Fifth Circle (1)
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Dark Ancient Tower, Fifth Layer
In the depths of the Dark Ancient Tower, at its mysterious fifth layer, lay the expansive Million Mountains.
After sending the Mind Flayers back to the Minotaur Tribe, the Holy Infant returned to his secluded training ground. He took out the storage ring he had acquired from Witch Mary and broke the restriction on it, revealing its contents.
A cascade of Aether Stones spilled out, forming a mountain of sparkling gems. The Holy Infant counted them and discovered there were a million Aether Stones in total. It made sense that Witch Mary, being both an array wizard and an alchemy wizard, would carry such a large quantity of Aether Stones to facilitate her spell formations.
“Sixteen million Aether Stones,” he murmured to himself. “Once I return to the Wizard World, I must quickly convert these into resources and combat power. I have no interest in money…”
Apart from the Aether Stones, there were numerous alchemical creatures, though most were of low quality. It seemed that Witch Mary favored quantity over quality in her alchemical pursuits. Levi, however, preferred to focus on fewer, but higher-quality creations. Keeping too many was useless; they were merely cannon fodder.
Among these alchemical creatures, only one was of the fifth level—the Alchemy Eagle. This giant eagle, known as the “Hast Eagle,” was about the height of a person and resembled a mundane golden eagle. However, it possessed the ability to solidify and manipulate its size through a size-altering spell, allowing it to appear much larger.
Refined primarily from fifth-level wind elemental metal and supplemented with other rare materials, the eagle could release the wind elemental power within the metal as Wind Blades or hurricanes, making it a formidable weapon.
“Not bad,” the Holy Infant mused. “It’s a fifth-level combat power after all. In the future, I can have Phoenix act as the eagle’s pilot. Combining wind and fire will make for even greater power!”With this thought, the Holy Infant summoned Phoenix and sent it outside for training. Phoenix complied silently, its expression one of grievance. Since their return from exploring the relic, it had been this way, and the Holy Infant had grown accustomed to it.
Next, the Holy Infant retrieved a glass jar containing a trembling golden mouse, the Truth Oddity known as the “Great Rat’s Sniff.”
“If only you had appeared earlier… Oh well, I said I would have no regrets, and I won’t. Missing a great opportunity for advancement over an uncertain future would be true regret.”
With that, he put the oddity away and continued searching for more treasures.
Finally, he found two books.
One of them contained fifth-level array knowledge, which required no further explanation. But the other one was quite unexpected.
It was titled Lemay’s Alchemy Cottage.
“So, it’s him. I thought the ‘Lemay’ inscribed on the ring was a coincidence. It seems Witch Mary might be a descendant of Master Lemay…”
Master Lemay was a renowned alchemy wizard. Levi had once obtained his alchemical legacy, Lemay’s Secret Workshop, at an auction. Now, he had found a similar legacy from Witch Mary.
What shocked Levi the most was that this legacy directly pertained to fifth-level alchemical creatures, surpassing the usual level one to four alchemical creatures. The legacy included twelve fifth-level alchemical blueprints, one of which was the “Hast Eagle.” Additionally, there were three sixth-level blueprints and one seventh-level blueprint.@@novelbin@@
Ultimately, Levi found a brooch with the inscription “Mary Lemay.”
“Indeed, she is a descendant of Master Lemay. It’s incredible to think that after ten thousand years, the Lemay family has fallen to such a state,” the Holy Infant sighed.
Lemay’s Alchemy Cottage was the highest level of knowledge legacy he had ever acquired. The seventh-level alchemical creatures were formidable enough to contend with powerful beings like the Molten Gold Wizard King. It was awe-inspiring to consider their potential. 𝐫ΆŊŐᛒĚṧ
The School of Alchemy was a relatively small faction, lacking even a Grand Wizard. Its strongest members were likely of the eighth-circle level. Levi speculated that the legacy he had obtained might be the highest level of alchemical knowledge available.
“After I reach the fifth circle, my next goal will be to refine all the fifth-level alchemical creatures from these blueprints. They can both guard my home and assist me in battle.”
The twelve fifth-level alchemical creatures were divided into four elements: Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, with three creatures for each element.
Lemay referred to them as the Three Wind Gods, Three Fire Gods, Three Earth Gods, and Three Water Gods!
The “Hast Eagle” was one of the Three Wind Gods. The other two Wind God models were the “Kulcan Feathered Serpent” and the “Meshus Winged Dragon.”
The Holy Infant was deeply impressed after reading about the Three Wind Gods.
“If these three models appear together, they can combine into the Wind God model, with power comparable to a senior fifth-circle wizard!”
He quickly examined the Three Fire Gods and Three Water Gods, discovering that they had similar capabilities. Once the three models of the same element were assembled, they could form the respective Fire God or Water God models…
If he managed to assemble all twelve gods of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, they could combine into the ultimate Nick God model!
The Nick God’s power would be enough to suppress most perfected fifth-circle wizards!
The three sixth-level blueprints represented: Ice, Thunder, and Metal.
The final seventh-level blueprint was beyond the Holy Infant’s current knowledge. He could only comprehend the name of its model: Divine Weapon Titan!
“What a magnificent alchemical creature,” the Holy Infant marveled.
“Levels six and seven are too distant for me. For now, my short-term goal is to refine the Three Wind Gods.”
In the third layer of the Dark Ancient Tower, Levi had collected a lot of Mist Sand, which was wind elemental metal. With other materials, he had enough to complete the Three Wind Gods.
What do you think?
