Witch: Accumulate Experience Through The Knight Breathing Technique - Chapter 994
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Generally speaking, most wizards were cautious about revealing their spells, talents, and such for their own safety.
Interpersonal relationships were usually the easiest to uncover.
Many wizards relied on their connections to assert their authority.
During this period, Levi leveraged the relationship between Rosa Witch and the Witch’s Family to gather a lot of information about the School of Death.
The School of Death was an extremely complex and specialized school.
However, the mainstream could be divided into three major systems: Ethereal, Corpse, and Crafty.
Ethereal, as the name suggested, specialized in dealing with spirit-type entities.
Madam Ghost was an expert in this field, mastering various summoning spells for spirits.
It could be said that Madam Ghost had mastered the manipulation of evil spirits and specters to perfection.
Various bizarre methods could be achieved using these spiritual beings.
Rosa Witch was once tracked by Madam Ghost using eerie specters.
“When dealing with Madam Ghost, one had to use Corpse Demons with caution.
The spells and knowledge Levi possessed from the School of Death were child’s play compared to hers.
If used improperly, she might counterattack!
At the same time, as a Master of Spirits, she may have possessed powerful spells to directly attack the mind.
Levi needed to learn some spells to protect the mind and soul.
Before confronting Madam Ghost, Levi had to research the Purification Elixir.
With that Soul Artifact fragment, Levi could make his Divine Ring Tower even more solid.
With the tower’s protection, Levi’s soul and mind would be as solid as a rock!
There wasn’t much detailed information available about the specific spells Madam Ghost possessed in the intelligence reports.
These were considered private, and like Levi, anyone who witnessed his actions usually ended up dead.
Most strangers would have found it difficult to uncover her specific abilities.
At most, it could be investigated that he practiced both spells and body refining.
So Levi could only try to understand the spectral faction’s spells as much as possible, especially those of fifth-circle level, and think of countermeasures.
Madam Ghost certainly wouldn’t expect Levi, a fourth-circle wizard, to actively come after her.
This was Levi’s advantage; he remained in the shadows.
From the intelligence, Madam Ghost had rarely been active in the mortal realm in recent years.
She remained secluded within the Spectre Kingdom’s restricted area, whether for secluded cultivation or other reasons.
In other words, Levi still had relatively ample preparation time.
During this period, he could selectively enhance his own abilities.
“Besides, Madam Ghost’s interpersonal relationships also need attention. These could potentially be my future enemies.”
Mistress Cruel was Barzan’s mother.
She had had a close relationship with Madam Ghost and had been a death wizard of the Crafty faction.
She had excelled in transforming powerful corpse puppets and had been even stronger than Madam Ghost.
She had had two fifth-circle Corpse Demon Kings and several level-four corpse demons by her side.
Apart from corpse demons, there had likely been other powerful corpse puppets.
Creating these had been the Crafty faction’s specialty.
These had just been the displayed strengths.
This person may have had even stronger cards up her sleeve.
In any case, she had been definitely on par with the Blue Dragon Lady.
This woman had probably still been in the Realm of Hell, not in the mortal realm.
Wildbone Wizard, the nomadic fifth-circle wizard I had encountered at the auction in the Nether Capital, shouldn’t have been weak either.
She had belonged to the Corpse faction and had excelled in summoning various non-spirit-type hell creatures.
She had been in the Endless Sea and had long since left the Spirit Catcher Steeple.
The likelihood of her causing trouble for me had been small… but caution was still necessary!”
Finally, the biggest trouble had come from the mentors of those two old women: Painful Banshee Amira.
The Spirit Catcher Steeple had currently had eight primordial soul wizards.
Painful Banshee had been one of them.
She may not have been the most powerful, but she had been the most troublesome.
Because she had successfully transformed into… a lich!
The wizards of the School of Death had probably been the most profound researchers of souls and death.
Only by constantly confronting death could one have grasped the true essence of life.
Since tens of thousands of years ago, a primordial soul wizard named “Vikna” had proposed the theory of “soul box technology and eternal life of the soul.”
Within the School of Death, a new faction had gradually emerged.
That had been the “lich” faction!
Primordial soul wizards could achieve: as long as the primordial soul was not destroyed, the wizard could not die!
However, this immortality here was only within the lifespan of the wizard.
Ultimately, since ancient times, birth, aging, illness, and death had been a kind of truth, or rule.
So, the soul at the core of the primordial soul would age.
Any wizard would reach their limit.
Even legendary wizards only had a lifespan of ten thousand years at most.
Wizards were certainly not satisfied with the status quo.
The concepts of “soul box” and “lich” were born from this.
By using special arrays, potions, and transformation rituals.
The primordial soul was preserved in a special object that was not affected by the rules of birth, aging, illness, and death.
From then on, theoretically, the primordial soul was immortal!
At the same time, the connection between the primordial soul and the physical body remained.
There was still consciousness in the physical body, which could be controlled by the soul in the soul box.
And, as long as the primordial soul existed, relying on primordial soul spells and various resources.
Wizards could reshape their physical bodies at any time, achieving a quasi-immortality in this way.
These wizards were called “lich”.
Unfortunately, this theory, so far, was only in its early stages, with many restrictions and drawbacks.
