In the Bug House, Leon nodded solemnly.
Then, the eerie face stared at the blood vampire and Red Eye.
Both of them felt their hearts sink.
“What on earth is this thing?”
“I have no idea. It’s terrifying. I feel like my soul is trembling instinctively!”
“It looks at us as if we’re food, wanting to eat us but not daring to…”
“But leaving the Realm of Crimson is a good thing. This person is definitely a prodigy of a major power. If we make it into his favor, when he advances to the Fifth Circle or even the Primordial Soul in the future, we, as his underlings, might rise to prominence too!”
…
In the Holy Brilliance Calendar year 1149, the Month of the Furnace, Levi successfully arrived at Flaming Mountain.
Even though he was ntally prepared, he was still shocked by the scene before him.
All he could see ahead was an endless expanse of black volcanoes.
The volcanoes were of various shapes, crafted by nature in all its splendor.
At the highest volcano, magma churned and bubbled incessantly.
A large wizard city stood at its edge, absorbing the surging fire elental power from outside the city’s array.
Next to Levi was Red Eye, who had undergone a transformation. His eyes had recovered, and he now stood respectfully by Levi’s side, dressed as a servant. Having originated from Flaming Mountain, Red Eye was familiar with the area.
“This city is built on the volcano. Wouldn’t it be subrged if the volcano erupts?”
“Lord, you may not know, but the core of the entire volcanic group, the fire elental land, is all suppressed by the wizards’ arrays of Flaming Mountain’s Primordial Soul. So, although the power of fire elent leaks out for thousands of miles around, there won’t be an eruption.”
“How many Primordial Souls does Flaming Mountain have now?”
“On the surface, there are three, all from the Fire Bull Wizard family: Clan Leader Red Horn, Lady Green Robe, and the Red-Haired Ghost Child… Speaking of which, the most talked-about aspect of Flaming Mountain is the relationship between these three Primordial Souls. Red Horn and Green Robe are husband and wife, and the Ghost Child is their child. They are all Primordial Souls! This is rare even in the Wizard World.”
“Indeed, Red Horn is probably the ruler of Flaming Mountain.”
“Heh heh, outsiders think Red Horn is the strongest, but in reality… the true authority figure of the Fire Bull family is not Clan Leader Red Horn, but Lady Green Robe. She’s not a local, but cos from a big wizard family in the Realm of Divine Wind, a rare Wind-Fire dual-cultivation Primordial Soul… Lord, I noticed your previous techniques weren’t just from one school of ditation, right?”
“I was just fooling around. Others have advanced the ditation arts of two major factions into Primordial Souls. I can’t compare…”
“That’s still pretty amazing. Daring to pursue both schools of ditation is already extraordinary.”
“Alright, stop flattering . Just show the way.”
The master and servant arrived, weary, at one of the small markets and found lodging.
Levi arranged to et with Hogg through the Teati Round Table to discuss their next steps, only to find no response after ssaging him.
“Hogg’s already at the peak of level 2. Maybe he’s in the midst of advancing… Let’s wait a few days.”
While waiting, Levi stowed away Red Eye and wandered the scattered wizard markets nestled among the volcanoes.
Making a rare visit to this place, he decided to take the opportunity to purchase so specialty resources.
The next day, Levi stood before a wizard stall.
The stall owner, a Second-Circle male wizard, sensed Levi’s presence and hurriedly asked, “What can I do for you, Lord?”
Even on Flaming Mountain, being in the Fourth-Circle was considered powerful.
Levi’s gaze fell upon several beast eggs on the stall, each larger than an ostrich egg.
“I’ll take these eggs.”
As an expert in transcendent creatures, Levi imdiately recognized them as Dragon Finch eggs.
He had a retired Dragon Finch in his sea beast sanctuary, constantly showing signs of mating with Levi. He intended to buy these eggs to soothe it and strengthen the population.
“These eggs were obtained from the nest of Second-Circle transcendent creatures, and each one is priced at 5000 Aether Stones…”
“It’s a bit pricey. Five thousand Aether Stones could buy a Second-Circle Wizard Tool. How about this? I’ll take all of them for five thousand… No one really wants these besides transcendent biologists, as wizards lose everything after all the effort to nurture them.”
The wizard hesitated for a mont, then agreed, “Alright, five thousand it is.”
Five thousand Aether Stones was a huge sum for an ordinary Second-Circle Wizard.
Placing the eggs into Alice’s ring, Levi was in good spirits.
For years, he had been trying to establish a Breeding Base for transcendent creatures, believing that the more specins and populations he had, the better.
Given the density of the Ancient Saint plane, it would take a long ti to saturate.
As it turned out, n also enjoyed shopping, as long as they had money.
Seven days later, Levi had spent two million Aether Stones.
Not only had he spent all the money confiscated from Red Eye and the blood vampire, but he had also taken a considerable amount from his own tens of millions-level reserve.
Of course, the harvest was also quite good.
Dragon Finch, Crimson Fire Dragon Lizard, Magma Serpent, Inferno Bird… Eight kinds of fire-based transcendent creature eggs or younglings.
In addition, Levi also found a piece of fire elental tal the size of a human head, level 3. He could use it to refine Tyrant IV again in the future.
However, all these expenses were relatively small.
What really cost him was knowledge. In addition to cantrips, he bought hundreds of spell models from first to fourth circle, and even a few fifth-circle spell models.
This knowledge was the most important goal of his shopping spree.
