Witch: Accumulate Experience Through The Knight Breathing Technique

Chapter 1978: 0435 Blood Source Seven Changes, Meat Temple! (Big chapter for monthly ticket and subscription requests)_2

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Flames within a hundred-mile radius began to stir and churn.

The entire island, under the intense heat, instantly turned into magma, engulfing Levi.

Even with Levi’s Red Emperor Dragon Body and its fire element resistance, the scorching heat was almost unbearable.

“So… this is the Dark Tribulation?”

Blood qi surged around him, forging a crimson armor, as the Crimson Dragon Slash rested in his palm, his gaze brimming with fighting intent.

“Just perfect, I wasn’t done having fun. Come on, let me see what kind of tricks you’ve got this time!”

This Dark Tribulation brought Levi a sense of peril far beyond the petty dangers of earlier encounters, even surpassing the threat posed by the appearance of the Red Lotus Dragon just moments ago.

Scarlet eyes stared directly at Levi.

Goosebumps crawled down Levi’s back!

Boom!

A sudden blow sent him hurtling backward across the sea, flying a hundred miles!

Looking down at the gaping hole punched through his chest, Levi’s gaze remained calm.

Standing silently at the spot where he had been moments ago was a fiery figure, its features indistinct but bearing a striking resemblance to Levi.

“This tribulation… is my mirror image?”

Levi reached an understanding.

The figure was composed entirely of fire, without flesh or blood—an incarnation of pure flame.

The hole in Levi’s chest healed instantly; for someone with an Undying Body, it was a mere trivial wound.

Boom!

Levi gripped the Crimson Dragon Slash firmly.

The fiery figure brandished a longsword forged of flames!

The clash of sword light rang out, steel against steel!

“Interesting, this flaming figure seems to have mastered combat techniques as well.”

Levi contemplated, leaping suddenly as the fiery figure struck again!

“Uncontainable Fury!”

The overpowering greatsword cleaved downward!

The fiery figure’s longsword shattered. Its body was sent flying, sliced in two, split down the middle.

In the next moment.

The fiery figure silently snapped its fingers, reforming back to its original state.

Levi’s expression grew somber as he turned his gaze toward the emotionless scarlet eye in the sky. Embedded within the hundred-mile Sea of Fire, it loomed, exuding divine presence.

Levi slashed apart another attacking flame figure, then rocketed upward, unleashing terrifying Sword Qi that transformed into a scarlet beam, piercing through the heavens!

With this strike, he aimed to destroy the eye!

Levi knew that the key to the battle lay here!

The scarlet eye calmly observed Levi’s incoming strike, then released an invisible, blistering wave of heat!

Before the scarlet beam could reach its target, it shattered inch by inch, eventually dissipating into nothingness like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

Levi’s expression shifted slightly.

Behind him, the flaming figure struck once more, driving its fiery longsword into Levi’s heart. With a sharp twist, Levi’s body was torn in two!

Amid the blood fog, Levi’s figure reappeared once again.

“This isn’t a solution… If my Death Ember Dragon’s strength runs out, even true immortality won’t save me. This time, the Land of Darkness is playing for real.”

The flaming figure attacked once more, Levi countering with his shark-tooth-shaped sword. Summoning explosive force, his body swelled under the Whale Emperor Power Book!

Boom!

The flaming figure was sent flying.

Instantly flashing behind it, Levi launched a devastating punch!

Fist wind exploded!

The flaming figure disintegrated into scattered flames, crushed under Levi’s overwhelming might.

But it reassembled once again, though Levi could sense its momentum had weakened somewhat.

“It seems its immortality has limits.”

Levi unleashed his full strength. He needed to eliminate this apparent mirror image first.

If the mirror disappeared but the scarlet eye remained unresolved, he would need to devise another strategy.

Outside the battlefield, Hundred Flowers’ eyes remained fixed, unblinking, on the unfolding situation.

“What is this scarlet eye? Is it the embodiment of some rule or will?”

She pondered.

From her knowledge, advancing to Grand Wizard status meant that each wizard faced distinct tribulations. Among them, one type involved facing monsters embodying elemental laws of their sect, known as “Elemental Tribulation Masters.”

Levi’s current predicament seemed vaguely similar, though there were fundamental differences.

Boom!

After yet another thunderous sword strike, the flaming figure was once again shattered, its sword destroyed, its body annihilated. Its raw power was still no match for Levi.

Even if it could replicate Levi’s Red Emperor Dragon abilities, it was futile against Levi’s Brilliant Golden Dragon Armor’s defense, Sky Dragon’s endurance, and Death Ember Dragon’s physique…

After this collapse, the flaming figure could no longer regenerate and reassemble.

High in the heavens.

The scarlet eye was now riddled with cracks, from which trails of fire seeped out.

Levi recognized that the tribulation had reached its breaking point.

Pointing his longsword at the eye, another burst of Red Flame Sword Energy surged forth!

Boom!

This time, the eye offered no resistance. Under the onslaught of sword energy, it disintegrated into ashes. The sense of dread vanished utterly.

“The Dark Tribulation… is over.”

Levi exhaled deeply; exhaustion washed over him as he gently descended.

Hundred Flowers asked:

“Is it over?”

Levi nodded.

Hundred Flowers rushed forward, supporting Levi as they left the fiery sea region and returned to the Ancient Dragon Continent.

The secluded island of retreat had long since vanished, swallowed by the sea.

…

The Emperor’s Palace.

Levi consumed several doses of medicine and high-energy food to restore his strength, though the weariness of his mind would take time to recuperate.

Within him, the surging Red Emperor Dragon Blood Qi was several times more potent than before his ascension, its quality also elevated further.

Under the relentless flow of this blood qi, the Crimson Emperor Divine Palace was dissipating at an imperceptible pace, disintegrating into numerous micro god palaces that merged into Levi’s cells. Upon closer inspection, each tiny cell contained a world of its own, within which a god palace stood.
