Witch: Accumulate Experience Through The Knight Breathing Technique

Chapter 2775: Chapter 568: Edmund’s True Form, the Twenty-Four Supreme Seats!

”But without Level 11, how can we kill the Earth Demon Lord?” The Shadow Demon Queen’s words left all the demons silent.

Indeed, the Earth Demon Lord is already at Level 10 Peak. Even the strong ones like the Succubus Queen from the 660th layer, the Fallen Star Lord, at most can only defeat the Earth Demon Lord, certainly not kill... This is also why the Earth Demon Lord has so much confidence in challenging Edmund one-on-one; its realm is high, and it’s the Arcane Terminator. How could it lose?

”For now, stand down and wait for support from the Water Demon Lord. The next move might need Level 11 strength, this is no longer a simple blood battle, but akin to the major events at the end of the Ancient and Antiquity epochs... the final battle.”

The death of the Earth Demon Lord cast a shadow over all the demons. No one dared to act rashly afterward. This next ten thousand years might be the endpoint of this Near Ancient thirty-million-year epoch. Although they suffered a setback, the demons firmly believed that the Abyss would still be there... as it has been for billions of years.

...

The Dark Temple.

Stars towered high, and the ancients were silent. The matter of Edmund killing the Earth Demon Lord was naturally known to them, who were well-informed. The rumors that Edmund might die were also spread by them taking advantage of this opportunity.

Compared to the powerful Abyss Demons, the only one in the Ancient Elder Council who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Earth Demon Lord was the Amethyst Saint. The End Dragon Bird was just an ordinary Level 10 Late Stage. The others were merely around Level 10 Mid Stage and Early Stage.

If Edmund can kill the Earth Demon Lord, if he’s not dead, then he has the ability to single-handedly trample down the Council of Ten Thousand Clans, so how could this council play out?

No wonder the Nora Council hasn’t really been minding the Council of Ten Thousand Clans until now, perhaps Edmund never even considered them as equal enemies.

The clown is actually myself?

If the previous Dusk Palace Master made some ancients uneasy, then Edmund now is truly terrifying.

Quite a few retreat strategists are already calculating their backup plans, wanting to break up like Zhu Bajie. But considering Edmund’s current uncertain situation, there’s a chance he might really be done for, so they’re still a bit hesitant in their hearts.

In the corner, the Dark Sun Sovereign’s heart sank to the bottom.

”Have I lost?”

He murmured inwardly, somewhat dejected. Previously, Edmund had bet with him through the Black Sun’s mouth, and this long bet might be coming to an end.

The Amethyst Saint frowned slightly and said:

”I know what you all are thinking, but remember, when you boarded this giant ship of the Council of Ten Thousand Clans, there was no turning back. Do you think that if you quit now, during the Nora Council’s autumn reckoning, they’ll let you go?”

But his words didn’t hold much deterrence for beings like the Void Emperor and the End Dragon Bird, who are not Plane Sovereigns.

As a Level 10, if I find some remote place to hide and never come out again, Edmund surely can’t conduct a needle-in-a-haystack search for me, can he?

The Void Emperor had already made up his mind to leave, planning to find an opportunity to break the shackles of the Covenant Sword, lead his clan to flee far beyond the Pan-Plane, and retire into seclusion.

The End Dragon Bird felt even more disgruntled.

It hadn’t eaten many giant dragons, yet almost became a scapegoat for the Council of Ten Thousand Clans. If it hadn’t been for the Fire Sovereign stopping me last time, I might have already turned into ”roast chicken” under Edmund’s sun, right?

For a moment, everyone in the Council of Ten Thousand Clans felt precarious. This major force, which had been in a Cold War and hot war confrontation with Nora for two thousand years, is actually at risk of disintegration.

...

On the Ancient Dragon Continent.

Silhouettes busily moved about, cleaning up the battlefield, clearing devil corpses. A silver flying shuttle descended, and everyone saluted, saying:

”The Hall Master is back.”

Levi smiled and said:

”Seeing everyone stand their ground in such an intense war on the Ancient Dragon Continent, I’m very gratified. Everyone’s war merit rewards will be increased by 5% from the original basis.”

”Great!”

”Thank you, Hall Master.”

Returning to the Dusk Holy Temple, after hearing the Green Bird Knight’s blood battle report, Levi’s smile widened, and he couldn’t help but praise, ”Not bad!”

In such fierce and perilous warfare, the casualty rate of various battle groups on the Ancient Dragon Continent was actually less than one-tenth, and the deaths and injuries of mortals were negligible. At the beginning of the war, all mortals had already taken refuge in the 49 Star Castles.

Although official statistics have yet to be released, Levi estimates that the casualty rates of other wizard organizations must be far higher than here.

Just from what he knows, over on the Burning School of Thought’s side, two sky cities of the Nine Cities Alliance were shot down by demons; it’s not quite a complete annihilation, but close, effectively removing two top wizard organizations from the map. By the way, one of them was Simon’s hometown, Norn City.

The damages to other Schools of Thought were also significant. Hundreds of wizard organizations vanished in this war.

On the side of the alien races, dozens of new continents were wiped off the map.

Of course, considering Nora’s current population base, in proportional terms, the casualty rate of this war is much better than the previous two.

And for the Ancient Dragon Continent to achieve such remarkable results, aside from the protection of top-level powerhouses like the Guardian Four Dragons, the most important elements were the Mechanical School and Bright Sun’s grand exertion of divine power.

Take for instance the elite Fish Demons; if they hadn’t been wiped out, they would certainly have caused massive casualties in subsequent battles.

Moreover, none of the supernovas on the Ancient Dragon Continent perished.

On the contrary, the Fire Dragon Knight was heavily injured in battle, having been too aggressive, facing off against two Level 8 Early Stage demons with a Level 7 Peak body, ultimately allowing demonic aura to infiltrate his body, currently undergoing purification healing.
