Witch: Accumulate Experience Through The Knight Breathing Technique

Chapter 2021: 0442 Dragon King Emerges! (Long chapter asking for monthly tickets and subscriptions)_3

Levi shook his head.

His intuition told him that if practitioners from two professions were involved, lifespans couldn’t simply be stacked together.

That would undoubtedly be unreasonable. It could only be said that, due to the longevity bloodline in his body, there would be a significant enhancement.

However, it was absolutely impossible for knight lifespan + wizard lifespan to simply add up to become his total lifespan.

According to current research by the Dusk Holy Temple, within the same realm, knights generally have slightly longer lifespans than wizards, but only marginally.

In any case, given Levi’s current progression,

he felt that before ascending to legendary status, he obviously did not need to worry about lifespan issues.

…

In the blink of an eye,

five years passed in a flash.

Nora, year 290.

Dragon King Li, now 715 years old.

In the Ancient Banyan Fairyland, he opened his eyes and attuned himself to the changes in his spiritual force.

[Spiritual Force: 8066/13029]

…

“In five years, my spiritual force increased by 37 points. Without consuming meditation potions, simply relying on arduous cultivation, I gained roughly 7 points annually through meditation alone.

As expected, after advancing to the seven-circle wizard realm, the difficulty of enhancing spiritual force has increased once more.

This is me we’re talking about—with the proficiency panel. For an average seven-circle wizard, meditating without potions and grinding, achieving even half of my results would be commendable. Just to push their spiritual force to the maximum might take close to two millennia…

As such, after the seventh-circle, yet another batch of primordial soul wizards is eliminated. Those who can ascend to the eighth-circle and become leaders of top-level wizard organizations are truly rare existences.

Only supreme talents, provided they have abundant resources, can relatively maintain a faster progression pace and continue striving for the eighth-circle wizard realm.

Once at the eighth-circle, the difficulty surges further. Ascending to the ninth-circle is no longer about talent alone; it will inevitably require being favored by fortune, assistance from influential benefactors, or extraordinary luck.”

Reflecting on his cultivation journey thus far, Levi increasingly realized that to go further on the path of wizard cultivation, no single factor could achieve it—it often required excelling in all aspects.

And many things were beyond his control.

But effort was not!

“Grinding!” That was the divine weapon that everyone could wield.

“If supplemented continuously with meditation supplementary potions, maintaining an annual spiritual force increase of around 10 points should be achievable.

Adding Soul Stones, oddities, Soul Artifact Fragments, and other external factors, reaching the spiritual force maximum within 400 years is not difficult for me.

But considering that I also need to imprint 27 Witch Marks, achieving the eighth-circle realm within approximately 500 years would already be a victory.

By then, I will only just be over 1,200 years old, making me one of the youngest in the eighth-circle wizard ranks.

If anyone ascends faster than me, they must either possess the bloodline of a Frost Giant ancestor, like the Frost Witch, or be the reincarnation of a Legendary Wizard.

Other so-called top-tier geniuses would, barring miraculous opportunities, likely be unable to achieve this.”

Levi noticed that his progression curve had accelerated compared to others in the later stages of his journey.

Before the primordial soul stage, his progression speed could only be described as excellent. However, compared to many top-tier geniuses, it was still far from extraordinary because he had been accumulating resources and multitasking in his cultivation.

But after reaching the primordial soul stage, the Infinite Primordial Soul technique, combined with the explosive payoff from his earlier groundwork and the emergence of the Three Avatars, allowed him to streamline his efforts. This caused his cultivation speed to far outpace those top-tier geniuses.

Consider the Snow Lotus Witch, a second-generation top-tier genius born to primordial soul wizards—she still hasn’t reached Sixth Circle Perfection.

To his knowledge, among the top-tier geniuses from the ancient tower cohort, only a handful, like the Sky Dragon Wizard, had achieved perfection.

And for them to even contemplate reaching the seventh-circle would require at least another two centuries.

“I must not grow complacent. After all, my current achievements are predominantly due to my ‘cheat’, while personal effort and character have played relatively minor, non-decisive roles.”

Levi began extracting the potion materials he had accumulated over the years and started refining them.

After numerous failures, he finally succeeded in refining the materials for the seven-circle meditation potion.

His pharmaceutical skills also advanced to the seven-circle level.

As the leader of multiple organizations, Levi obviously did not need to worry about acquiring meditation supplementary potion materials.

With so many people assisting in collection, he had an uninterrupted supply to sustain himself through cultivation to the seven-ring limit.

What’s more, he always maintained a cash flow of around 1 billion gold coins in his personal accounts.

That said, he rarely used his own funds.

The numerous organizations he had painstakingly established over the years were specifically created for today’s “publicly funded cultivation.”

Of course, he only took a small portion for himself, with the majority serving as operational funds for the organizations.

After all, he wasn’t some grossly corrupt official.

In the coming period,

Levi focused on refining meditation supplementary potions to improve his pharmaceutical skills.

Two years later,

after he had honed his seven-circle pharmaceutical skills to a satisfactory level and improved his success rate, he finally began attempting to refine the Soul Suppressing Potion.

The materials for the Soul Suppressing Potion were exceedingly precious—not something that could easily be purchased on the open market.

After years of preparation through his organizations, Levi managed to gather enough materials to refine only dozens of doses.

Furthermore, once the petals of the Ice Mountain Snow Lotus were harvested, it would take another century for the flower to bloom again.

As such, the refinement of this potion could not withstand too many failures.

Time passed swiftly, and, unwittingly, another three years slipped by.

Before he knew it, Levi had been in the seven-circle wizard realm for a decade.

During these ten years, he remained secluded, focusing on solidifying his realm and honing his pharmaceutical skills, refraining from participating in blood battles.

Fortunately, for someone like him, a leader of a transcendent organization, the Wizard Council did not impose mandatory demon-hunting targets.

As long as his subordinate organizations contributed adequately, it was sufficient.

If Levi were a nomadic wizard, as a seven-circle wizard who had participated in 83 years of blood battles and amassed only 500,000 points, he undoubtedly would have received warnings from the Wizard Council.
