Chapter 357: Level 4 Black Devil Blade, Return to Origin, Nine Golden Swords! 4

Black Devil Blade was a technique that cultivated both Levi’s physical body and spiritual force.
Levi estimated that to break through to level 5 of Black Devil Blade, he first needed to acquire the spiritual force of an official wizard.
He put away the Nine Swords Asura.
He put on his robe and went out of the tower.
Everyone had been busy preparing for the sea beast tide. He had used his points to take leave because he wanted to train in seclusion.
Now that the Black Devil Blade had broken through to level 4, as a member of the Gray Tower, he couldn’t just sit in his room and wait. He had to do something.
An apprentice wizard greeted him as soon as he exited the tower.
“Hello, Senior Brother Levi.”
“Hello, Junior Brother.” Levi smiled and walked towards the White Tower. Ms. Marlene had something to discuss with him.
On the third floor of the White Tower, Marlene saw Levi and said, “Has your seclusion ended?”
“Ms. Marlene, what do you need me to do next?” asked Levi as he nodded.
“You do not need to do anything yet,” Marlene said. “Our tower is currently lacking in first-circle combat power. You, Marko, and Tim are the pillars of the tower. You should not waste your energy in the early stages of the sea beast tide. You will fight when we encounter first-circle transcendent creatures that make landfall. The three of you only have one mission: preventing the first-circle transcendent creatures from attacking the array. Of course, I’ll also join the fight when needed. However, I have to prevent the second-circle transcendent creatures and the people from the Undead Ship from causing trouble, so I’ll have to rely on you guys.”
“Alright. I understand,” replied Levi.
Marlene asked with a smile, “How is it? Are you confident in dealing with first-circle transcendent creatures? After all, you’re just a high-level apprentice wizard. It will be a little difficult for you to deal with first-circle transcendent creatures. The tower has always treated you as a First-Circle Wizard. We have worked you too hard. After this sea beast tide ends, I’ll ask the Tower Master to give you some rewards. I’ll get him to give you at least another first-circle Wizard Tool.”
Levi answered, “There shouldn’t be any problem. I’ve dealt with Leviathan before. Ordinary first-circle transcendent creatures shouldn’t be a match for me. The Gray Tower has taken in a Child of Chaos like me and treated me so well. It’s only right for me to show my gratitude to the tower now.”
“That’s good. If it proves too difficult, don’t push yourself. Just hide in the array,” said Marlene.
“Alright. Right, Ms. Marlene, how long can the Blue Ocean Shelter last with the reserves in the tower?” asked Levi.
Marlene answered, “If no first-circle transcendent creatures attack the array and accelerate its consumption, it should be able to last for more than three years. However, if there’s external interference, then the situation looks bleak.” “Alright. I will not let any first-circle transcendent creatures get close to the array.”
Levi nodded and left.
His Black Snake’s Message allowed him to sense the movements of the sea beasts on the nearby coastline while he was in the Gray Tower. He could sense everything inside the barrier with his Advanced Perception.
Once any of the transcendent creatures got close to the barrier, he would kill them with the methods of a knight.
Now was not the time to hold back his strength. He had to protect his life first.
Since Levi had chosen to stay behind and fight against the sea beasts with the Gray Tower, he would do his part seriously.
Since the task assigned to him was to guard the array, Levi did not waste any time wandering around.
He returned to the ninth floor of the Gray Tower and used the last bit of time to cultivate his breathing techniques.
To cultivate Meditation Arts, one had to enter a meditative state. In this state,
Levi was unable to sense the outside world. Even if sea beasts were invading, Levi would not know. Moreover, the earliest he could achieve a breakthrough in Meditation Arts would be next year. Without Naga’s Blessing, Levi’s chances of becoming an official wizard were slim. He preferred to focus on things that he was confident in.
Therefore, he decided to stop wizard training for now and tried to catch up with more breathing techniques before the sea beast tide.
Just like that, Levi sensed the situation outside while cultivating breathing techniques in his room.
Among the breathing techniques he was cultivating, his level 10 Red Lotus was one-third of the way to level 11. Hunchback Dragon was at level 9 and was not far from level 10. Undying Bird was still far from reaching level 10, and the Black Whale Breathing Technique was also almost reaching level 9.
Besides that, Levi was also cultivating some shallow breathing techniques to break through limits.
Levi focused on reaching level 10 with the Hunchback Dragon Breathing
Technique as soon as possible to improve his endurance drastically.
Time flew by, and half a month passed.
He had yet to achieve any breakthroughs in his breathing techniques. However, he was getting closer to breaking through to level 10 of the Hunchback Dragon
Breathing Technique.
Levi was forced to stop cultivating his breathing technique.
He sensed that the Dragon King Whale was humming a nervous whale song. This was the Dragon King Whale’s warning that an enemy was approaching the shore.
Levi immediately descended from the tower.
“Junior Brother Levi, what’s wrong?” Winnie asked when she saw Levi’s serious expression. She had a feeling that the kind soul that aided her last time was Levi, but she had no proof.
In Winnie’s opinion, Levi was shy and introverted. On the surface, he rejected her invitation to shop with her, but behind her back, he silently protected her and did good deeds anonymously..
