After all, once he left this place, it would be difficult to purchase Burning Faction spells on a large scale again.
Among them was a fifth-circle model, precisely the advanced spell Levi was currently studying as a follow-up to his fourth-circle Sun Splitting Strike: Solar Aggregation!
Basically, Levi collected all the Burning Faction knowledge circulating in the market of Flaming Mountain that he didn’t already have.
“Only 8 million Aether Stones left, it’s really too extravagant… But, knowledge is priceless. Investing in knowledge can’t go wrong,” Levi comforted himself.
With 8 million left, he decided not to spend any more for now.
After completing his transactions with the seller, he planned to purchase so weapon-making and alchemy knowledge to bring back with him.
The Burning Faction wizards were particularly skilled in weapon-making, and the headquarters of the Alchemy Faction was actually located within the Burning Faction.
It was one of the Ten Halls, the “Alchemy Hall.”
Next, Levi secluded himself at ho to quietly cultivate.
Three days later, Hogg and Levi got in touch.
At the Teati Round Table, Hogg looked apologetic as he spoke, “Commander, I had a sudden urge a few days ago. I felt the ti was right for advancent, so I went into seclusion. Now, I’ve beco a Blood Knight.”
“No worries, congratulations on your successful promotion. Arrange a eting with that person for . Once things are settled here, I’ll head back,” Levi said.
“Alright.”
The next day, in a larger wizard market, inside a tavern’s private room, Levi was already waiting there, deep in thought with his eyes closed.
He opened his eyes to see a figure entering the room.
The person was a wizard dressed in crimson robes, wearing a mask.
With a fourth-circle wizard’s cultivation, judging by his spiritual force, he should be nearing perfection, or at least a senior fourth-circle practitioner.
“Are you here to buy Black Fla teorite Iron?” the man asked calmly.
“That’s correct. If you’re sincere about trading, let see your goods first,” Levi smiled.
“I don’t have any on hand right now, but I know where to find Black Fla teorite Iron,” the man replied.
Levi’s expression darkened imdiately, and he chuckled coldly, “When you contacted my friend earlier, you claid to have stock.”
“Please, calm down. Black Fla teorite Iron is a fifth-level fire elent tal. If I had any extra, I would have sold it at an auction. There would be no need for you to buy from ,” the man said nonchalantly.
After a mont of silence, Levi spoke, “It seems the location of the Black Fla teorite Iron isn’t simple.”
“To be honest, I recently discovered a lost and ruined secret realm where I found the Black Fla teorite Iron… and there’s quite a lot of it. However, that secret realm has been invaded by black beasts from the Land of Darkness, so of them even being fifth-level black beasts ruling over it. The Black Fla teorite Iron ore was found near the lair of these black beasts. Due to the large number of black beasts in the secret realm, after obtaining a small piece of teorite Iron, I ca out early and used the auction as an opportunity to release so clues, hoping to attract demand like yours to join my team and explore the secret realm together. In that secret realm, the largest Black Fla teorite Iron mine is occupied by a fifth-level black beast. During this ti, I’ve found so demanders like yourself, all of them fourth-circle practitioners, including so array wizards. When the ti cos, we’ll use arrays to kill those black beasts. After that, the Black Fla teorite Iron mine will be up for grabs. What do you think?”
Levi’s expression shifted as he listened.
“I think it’d be better for you to find Fifth-Circle Wizards,” Levi said bluntly, “A few Fourth-Circle Wizards… they might not even know how they died.”
“It seems you’re so sheltered wizard who’s not experienced in the real world,” the wizard retorted, “You don’t know how tough it is out there, exploring secret realms. When exploring secret realms, you look for wizards of the sa realm. Why would you seek higher realm wizards? Even if you can relatively safely obtain treasures with their help, will they share with you? Do you naively believe that re contracts can restrain wizards of higher realms?”
Levi pondered inwardly.
At 160 years old, he had only explored secret realms twice. One of those tis had left him with psychological scars. Apart from himself, everyone else either died or was close to death.
So, he didn’t really understand so of the unspoken rules of exploring secret realms.
Unless absolutely necessary, he wasn’t fond of risking his life for riches.
But for most ordinary wizards, seeking resources beyond their status often required taking risks.
“So, how many people have you found now?” Levi asked.
“I’ve already found five assistants, all Fourth-Circle Wizards. We just need one more, and we can form a Fourth-Circle array to trap the black beast… I can tell you’re fairly new to the Fourth Circle. If it wasn’t for a wizard who had promised to co with us but had so sudden business, I wouldn’t usually consider soone of your strength,” the masked man said arrogantly.
“After the joint kill, it’s every man for himself, right?” Levi clarified.
“Exactly.”
“Alright… I’m in.”
“Good. Hunting down a fifth-level entity isn’t as terrifying as you think, as long as you have the courage. Enough said. Leave your contact information, prepare yourself, and we’ll set off in three days.”
Levi exchanged contact information with the wizard and then returned to his lodging.
“How did it go, Commander? Smoothly?” Hogg inquired.
“Not bad. Now that you’ve advanced to Blood Source, do you plan to stay here or return to the mortal realm?” Levi asked.
“I want to explore a bit here first. If the temple needs , I can always go back. I’ll follow your lead.”
