Chapter 405: Wizard Tower, Mark of Truth, Legendary Golden Horn! (2)

Levi realized he did not need Undead Summoning for the time being since he already had the level 7 Seal of Hell. At the highest level of Undead Summoning, he could summon two first-circle hell creatures in battle, such as two Hell Strongmen. They would be of little help to Levi.

Sacred Insect Touch was different. Since it was a First-Ring Spell, the number of Sacred Insects Levi could control with it would be much greater than that of the cantrip Insect Controlling Technique. He might be able to control up to 10,000. With the current strength of Levi’s Sacred Insects, 10,000 of them attacking in full force could pose a huge threat to official wizards. The most important thing was that his Sacred Insects had growth potential. This meant that as the Sacred Insects evolved, his First-Ring Spell would become stronger in the future.

When Levi’s spiritual force improved further, he would still cultivate Undead

Summoning. The summoning spell was the basic spell for many Second-Ring Spells. Even if Levi did not use Undead Summoning after cultivating it, the proficiency points would not go to waste and would be passed down into advanced spells built upon it. Theoretically, a First-Circle Wizard could learn 20 First-Ring Spells, but Levi’s current spiritual force needed to be improved. His foundation was still weak, so he needed to choose which spell he learned carefully, and the order in which he learned the spells was also crucial.

Levi made up his mind. “Manla will continue to collect the refining materials for the arrays. Next, I’ll start constructing the spell model of the Sacred Insect Touch. Too many Saint Scorpions are in my Breeding Base now, and they’re almost beyond my control.”

He took out the manuscript for the Insect Controlling Technique. The spell model of the Sacred Insect Touch was recorded in this book.

Sacred Insect Touch was considered a medium-difficulty spell among the First-Ring Spells. With Levi’s current level, it took him less than half a month to successfully construct its spell model.

During construction, Levi discovered many structures in the Insect Controlling Technique were similar to that of the Sacred Insect Touch. It was apparent that one of them had referred to the other.

In short, since Levi had already established the foundation of the Insect

Controlling Technique, he could construct the spell model of the Sacred Insect Touch smoothly. To Levi’s surprise, the proficiency points of the Insect Controlling Technique were passed on to the Sacred Insect Touch.

[Sacred Insect Touch: Level 3 (1/10000)]

The cantrip Insect Controlling Technique, which used to be on Levi’s proficiency panel, had disappeared and was replaced by Sacred Insect Touch.

“This is perfect. This has saved me a lot of cultivation time.”

He could control 1,000 Saint Scorpions with the level 3 Sacred Insect Touch. This number was the same as the Insect Controlling Technique at maximum level.

Levi struck while the iron was hot. He cultivated this newly learned spell with his breathing techniques and Meditation Arts.

It was the Year 1030 of the Holy Brilliance Calendar, the Month of Flowing Fire.

Levi had upgraded the Sacred Insect Touch to level 4.

The number of Saint Scorpions under Levi’s control had reached 3,000. Although it was still far from his estimated 10,000, it had at least solved his immediate problem. Levi no longer needed to control the population of Saint Scorpions. For now, he could let these little guys mate freely and select more outstanding offspring, eliminating inferior individuals.

Apart from that, Levi had completed the remaining six Cloud Mist arrays. With that, he had resolved the problem of watering and fertilizing his herbal field.

However, the proficiency points he gained from repeatedly refining the Cloud Mist arrays were getting lesser. Levi estimated upgrading his array proficiency to level 3 would take some time.

In terms of breathing techniques, other than the Saint Ape Breathing Technique that had just reached level 3, the Golden Horn Breathing Technique, the Ostrich Mountain Breathing Technique, and the Giant Breathing Technique were all approaching level 11. The Golden Horn Breathing Technique was expected to reach the legendary stage before the end of the year.

Levi lacked the ingredients for the secret medicine for the Saint Ape Breathing Technique, so he stopped cultivating it after reaching level 3. In the future, when he had the secret medicine, he would continue cultivating it more efficiently. This would save Levi precious time. He had too many skills to cultivate, so he had to learn how to allocate time and resources reasonably.

Levi was on the right track, be it the path of Imights or wizards. One was enough for him to gain a foothold in the Endless Sea. The price of all this was that Levi’s funds were being depleted. After a long period of secluded cultivation, Levi’s current reserve of Aether Stones had plummeted to below 5,000 Aether Stones. This made Levi extremely insecure. Although he was only a First-Circle Wizard, his daily expenses were higher than some Second-Circle Wizards because he was learning too many things.

He sorted out the spell books, Wizard Tools, and other things he had obtained over the years. He planned to go to the Blacksail Wizard Market and sell these things for some money. He also wanted to see if he could get some potion formulas from the market.

Levi had yet to register as a pharmacist. Although his potions were authentic and high quality, he could not sell them in certified stores. Therefore, Levi could only set up stalls or sell them on the black market.

During the sea beast tide, the president of the Pharmacist Association in this region, Angus, was killed by Baron Deep Sea. According to the Pharmacist Association’s Regulations on the Administration of the Pharmaceutical Industry, the president of a branch of the Pharmacist Association had to be at least a Second-Circle Pharmacist. As the only Second-Circle Pharmacist in the region, Marlene did not want to be the president. As a result, the Pharmacist Association in Area 9 was merged with the Pharmacist Association in Area 8. The headquarters was very far away from Levi’s place. He did not have time to get certified for the time being. Anyway, the potions he refined now were mainly for his own usage..
