Rise of the Dark Witch

As the trial ended, the six satellites where the garrison was located emitted dazzling light.

boom--

boom--

boom--

Six hot beams of light shot out from the moon-sized satellite, and in an instant they covered a distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers and landed on the void seal. The cracks in the seal slowly healed.

The Void Zerg inside the seal roared unwillingly and hit the seal crazily.

Suddenly, those Void Zerg that were frantically hitting the seal dispersed.

Did they realize that they were just doing useless work, so they dispersed?

Not really!

Through the huge hole with a diameter of thousands of kilometers, you can see that deep in another universe, a terrifying Void Zerg that is as big as a planet is approaching here.

Just looking at the body as huge as a planet and the lines of the Eye of the Void on the opponent's body, one can tell that this Void Zerg is at least level five!

Why does the fifth-level Void Zerg appear?

Could it be that the barrier sealing the two cosmic passages was broken by the other party?

Roja and others, who were originally happy because they successfully passed the Void Guard Trial, suddenly clenched their fists nervously.

They are the best among second-level wizards, but they are too insignificant in front of fifth-level creatures.

Fortunately, the terrifying fifth-level Void Zerg was just swimming around the seal, looking at Roja and his group through the seal with the dense pupils on its body, and did not want to break the seal and break in. Meaning to kill them.

Even so, they still felt numb at the sight.

Especially Roja, who had just faced the erosion of the void not long ago, his palms were even more nervous and sweaty.

Not long after, the seal was completed again.

An illusory teleportation gate appeared in front of Roja and others.

The door in front of Roya, Aita, Nan En, and Rizan is black, and the door in front of the two losers Yuliu and Mara is white.

After the six people looked at each other, they nodded slightly and walked into their respective teleportation gates.

Roja felt his vision flicker and suddenly came to a place that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

What he came to was a magnificent temple.

At the end of the magnificent temple, there sat an exquisite girl who looked like a doll with countless mechanical tubes connected to her back.

The girl's appearance and body proportions make her look like a young girl who has just entered elementary school.

But which little girl has a height of tens of thousands of meters?

This girl is the seventh domain master of Ten Thousand Demons Cave—the master of the Demonic Machine Domain!

The Demon Machine Territory Master is one of the top seven terrifying beings among the many seventh-level wizards in the Ten Thousand Demons Cave!

Although the Master of the Magic Machine Domain specializes in magic technology, his physical strength is relatively weak among the many seventh-level wizards. But even the first wizard of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, the Lord of the Black Abyss, couldn't say that he was 100% sure of breaking into the magic machine witch city she built.

Since entering the world of wizards, this is the third time that Roja has met the master of the magic machine domain.

The first time was when he was still a first-class apprentice and had just completed the apprenticeship trial.

The second time was when he completed the third trial and obtained the qualification to enter the Magic Machine Academy.

the third time……

It's now!

He completed the Nine Magic Machine Trials and successfully graduated from the Magic Machine Academy!

Seeing the Demon Machine Domain Lord for the third time in his life, Roja's body trembled slightly due to excessive excitement and fear.

He glanced around secretly, but did not see the other three people who had passed the void guarding trial with him.

Is it because they are not qualified to meet the Demonic Machine Territory Lord?

Or were they there too, but he couldn't see them?

"ha--"

He took a deep breath and suppressed the rising emotions in his heart.

He knelt down on one knee facing the Lord of the Demonic Machine Domain, bowed his head and greeted respectfully: "Student Roya Nange has met the Master of the Demonic Machine Domain!"

Hearing Roja's voice, the Demon Machine Territory Lord opened his eyes. His left eye was as hot as the sun, and his right eye was as dark as the abyss.

The master of the magic machine domain stared at Roja expressionlessly and spoke in a voice that seemed to be mechanically synthesized without any tone or emotion.

"Wizard Roya Nange, congratulations on your graduation from Magic Machine Academy..."

"As the dean of Magic Machine Academy, I will provide a reward to every graduate..."

Hearing the word reward, Roja's heartbeat couldn't help but beat half a beat faster.

The Demonic Machine Territory Master ignored Roja's reaction and continued to talk to himself.

"As a second-level wizard, you are already close to the peak of the second-level wizard in all aspects. Even among the many students at Magic Machine Academy, you are the most powerful one, but you still have a huge... defect."

"Do you know what your flaw is?"

The words of the Demon Machine Domain Master made Roja's brain spin rapidly.

What flaw?

He has so many flaws that he has no idea which one the Demon Machine Domain Master is talking about.

The flaws mentioned by the Demon Machine Territory Master should not be referring to flaws that cannot be called flaws such as his inability to match the speed wizard.

But does it mean that as a plant wizard, he has imperfections?

"Well, this..." He frowned and thought.

"If you think about it carefully, there is something in you that does not match your strength and identity, and has been holding you back." The Demonic Machine Domain Master reminded.

Doesn't it match his identity and strength?

Are you holding him back?

After just thinking for a while, he soon had an idea.

All the way to this day, his configuration is top-notch in all aspects.

The bloodline is the bloodline of the World Sea God Flower obtained from the Fairy Secret Realm. The three witchcrafts are all first-class learned from the Ten Thousand Demons Cave. The cultivation techniques are also the top ones of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave...

Yu Ji successfully condensed ten paths in the moon phase world, and his mental and magic power are no worse than others. His bloodline talent of sharing souls has been greatly strengthened after practicing the white wizard's skills...

Proficient in potions, potions, formations...

If you insist on saying that there is any equipment on him that is holding him back, it can only be that thing.

Witchcraft weapon - withered vine!

The other configurations on his body either come from the Fairy Secret Realm, the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons, or the ninth-level wizard.

Only the witchcraft weapon, the withered vine, comes from the hands of a first-level wizard!

It is incompatible with other configurations!

In the eyes of others, Kusheng Mitou is already a first-class witchcraft, but compared with the top witchcraft, there is still a huge gap.

Among the students at Magic Machine Academy, there is no one with a magic weapon worse than him!

His strength is at the forefront of Magic Machine Academy, but his level of wizardry is at the bottom among many students.

He had also envied other people's weapons, and had thought of replacing them with stronger magic weapons.

It's just that once a wizard's magic weapon is confirmed, it is very troublesome to replace it, especially after becoming a second-level wizard in the condensed field.

More importantly--

Withered Mitō is already considered a first-class witchcraft weapon. It is not easy to find a better replacement witchcraft weapon that suits him.

Besides, the Withered Mitō is a bit weaker than the top witchcraft, but its ability is still very powerful.

As long as the resistance is stacked up, even the supernova explosion can be blocked without damage.

After weighing the pros and cons, he finally gave up the idea of ​​replacing the witchcraft.

Now the Demonic Machine Domain Master mentioned his configuration flaws in front of him, meaning...

"Master of the Demonic Machine Domain, are you talking about my witchcraft weapon, the withered vine?" Roja asked.

"Your Witch Weapon's ability to superimpose resistance with withered vines is very good and fits your identity as a plant-based wizard very well. However, the raw materials for refining the Witch Weapon are too low-grade, which greatly reduces the strength of the Witch Weapon."

"This time as a reward for your graduation from Magic Machine Academy, I will give you two choices."

"The first option is to get a stronger magic weapon from me."

"The second option is to upgrade and strengthen your existing witchcraft."

Faced with the plan proposed by the Demonic Machine Territory Master, Roja did not think for long and decisively chose the second one.

The witch weapon Kusei Mitou has been with him since he became an official wizard, and many of his fighting methods were developed based on Kusei Mitou.

Once he changes the witch weapon, he needs to customize new fighting methods according to the characteristics of the witch weapon.

Too much trouble.

Moreover, the new fighting method may not be suitable for him, and he may not necessarily become stronger.

It would be best if the original witchcraft weapon, the withered vine, could be strengthened.

After Roja made his choice, a ball of light appeared out of thin air in front of his eyes.

He stretched out his hands, and the ball of light slowly fell on his palms.

The light faded and he saw what fell on his palm.

It was a fist-sized crystal ball filled with light green liquid.

Looking at the light green liquid swaying in the crystal ball, his eyes suddenly narrowed, "This is..."

The crystal ball is not filled with ordinary liquid.

There were tiny seeds suspended in the liquid, and he could feel the pure vitality from those seeds.

"What are suspended inside are one hundred seeds of a hundred thousand year old tree of life, which are used to strengthen your witchcraft weapon, the withered vine."

"Your witchcraft weapon, the withered vine, has a strong ability to superimpose resistance, which is very suitable for your identity as a plant-based wizard."

"It's just that the level of the refining raw materials is too low, so the strength is not good enough. The transformed plants will break when touched by a strong person of the same level, and it is equivalent to nothing when faced with the white wizard."

"When you use these life seeds to strengthen your magic weapon, the transformed plants can be greatly enhanced."

"The strength is equivalent to you and an ancient tree of life in the same realm."

"You are equivalent to carrying an ancient tree of life with you to fight, and this ancient tree of life can also superimpose resistance after withstanding the enemy's attack."

After listening to the introduction, Roja's expression was confused.

The strength of the strengthened withered vine is equivalent to that of an ancient tree of life in the same realm as him?

Doesn't it mean that he carries a second-level magic plant with him?

Carrying a level 2 magic plant around as a witchcraft weapon?

As a plant wizard who once made a big fuss in the Endless Forest, he is very aware of the power of the second-level magic plant.

If he could carry a second-level demonic plant with him to fight, his strength could be doubled several times!

In the past, when facing overlord-level monsters, the overlord-level monsters could easily break the plants transformed from his withered vines. He had to go through a long battle and build up resistance before he could tie up the enemy.

After strengthening the withered vine, there is no need to add any resistance at all!

Overlord-level monsters can be easily tied up!

Once other second-level wizards are tied up, they cannot escape without special abilities!

The second-level magic strain itself is extremely powerful. If you add the ability to superimpose resistance...

Two words appeared in Roja's mind——

Invincible!

The strengthened withered vine is definitely the top witchcraft weapon!

He looked excitedly at the crystal ball in his hand that contained the seeds of the 100,000-year-old ancient tree. With this, he became a truly perfect plant wizard.

If he gets this early, he can compete for the championship in the four-color arena!

But it’s not too late to get it now.

"Thank you, Lord Demon Machine Domain, for the reward." Roja thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

After receiving the reward, he began to look forward to the next step.

Generally, when you meet the master of the Magic Machine Domain, you can get a meeting gift and the opportunity to ask a question.

The opportunity to ask questions to a seventh-level wizard is extremely rare.

When he, as a freshman at the Magic Machine Academy, got the opportunity to meet the Master of the Magic Machine Domain, it was because he asked the Master of the Magic Machine Domain a question, so the Master of the Magic Machine Domain recommended him to practice the second-level plant-based skill "Planting Tree Rings". It hinted that he went to the Endless Forest to seize the second-level magic plant.

Faced with the questions he asked next, what answer would the Demon Machine Territory Lord give?

He has been waiting for this day for too long.

But before the Demon Machine Territory Master took the initiative to speak, he just knelt on one knee and did not dare to speak.

It might only be a brief second, or it might be several long hours.

The Demonic Machine Territory Master finally spoke again, "Royal Nange, do you want to be my student?"

Faced with this question, Roja nodded without any hesitation.

Who doesn't want to be a student of a seventh-level wizard?

As a grassroots person, he understands the value of having a good teacher and a good background.

If he doesn't participate in the Magic Machine Trial...

As a mixed-blood wizard, his mental power limit is only three thousand.

He didn't have the chance to go to the Xingyun Ancient Mine, he couldn't get the Star God's Soul, and his bloodline couldn't reach level five.

He does not have the help of the resources of the Moon Phase World, so he can only rely on his own cultivation. The speed of condensing the domain base is much slower, and there is no possibility of condensing the tenth domain base.

He cannot enter the Magic Machine Academy, further study witchcraft, and cannot participate in endless challenges, four-color arenas, and void guards...

It can be said that if it were not for the Magic Machine Trial, he would most likely still be a first-level wizard.

And among the many first-level wizards, he is just an extremely mediocre one.

He is confident that he has the proof of two souls and can still go far on his own.

It’s just that the road is countless times more rugged and difficult.

To reach the same height, the effort and time required will increase countless times, and the possibility of falling midway will skyrocket.

He has not yet become the student of the Demon Machine Domain Master, but he can already get so many benefits from the Demon Machine Domain Master.

How big will the benefits be when he becomes the real student of the Demonic Machine Territory Lord?

"You are very talented. You are the most likely person in ten thousand years to become my student."

"Thank you, Lord Demon Machine Domain, for your consideration."

"But you are not qualified to be my student."

"What?"

One second he was feeling elated because he was favored by the Demonic Machine Territory Lord, and the next second he felt like he was falling into the abyss.

He has talent but no qualifications?

What is this nonsense?

Do students who become Demon Machine Domain Masters still need special qualifications?

Why is he not qualified?

Is it because of his origin? Is it because of his bloodline? Is it because of his looks? Or is it because of his gender? …

What was the reason that caused him to lose this qualification?

Roja's face was full of confusion.

"Master of the Magic Machine Domain, the students don't understand very well." Roja asked in a low voice.

"Wizards who have completed the first nine trials and graduated from Magic Machine Academy can then go to the trial city on the eighth level of Ten Thousand Demons Cave. Every wizard who enters the trial city is considered to be my student candidate, but..."

The Demonic Machine Territory Master paused and continued:

"Actually, not every graduate can be my candidate."

"If you want to be my alternate student, there are conditions and you need qualifications."

"It's just that almost all the wizards who graduated from Magic Machine Academy meet the conditions for entering the City of Trials and becoming my student candidates, so there is an illusion that anyone who is a graduate can enter the City of Trials."

"The conditions for becoming my student candidate are very simple..."

Hearing the key point, Roja was so nervous that his breathing suddenly stopped.

The ethereal voice of the Demon Machine Domain Master seemed to come from another world to his ears.

"There is only one condition, and that is the possibility of becoming a seventh-level wizard."

"My purpose in recruiting students is to train them to become seventh-level wizards. It would be even better if they could surpass the seventh level and reach the eighth or even ninth level."

"No matter how weak the possibility of becoming a seventh-level wizard is, it must at least exist."

"I will never accept a wizard whose upper limit is only level six as a student."

"And you have no chance of becoming a seventh-level wizard."

"You can't be my student."

"do you understand?"

To be honest, Roja didn't understand at all.

What does it mean that he has no possibility of becoming a seventh-level wizard?

He has awakened an innate eighth-level soul!

Let alone a seventh-level wizard, he is more likely to become an eighth-level wizard than anyone else in the wizarding world!

The legendary ninth-level truth wizard even made it clear that he has the possibility to surpass the ninth level and become the strongest tenth-level wizard in history!

Facing him, who has a great future and a higher ceiling than anyone else.

The Lord of the Magic Machine Domain actually said - "You are not up to your limit, you are not qualified to be my student."

What nonsense is this?

He wanted to directly question the Demonic Machine Territory Master!

As a seventh-level wizard, why is his eyesight so bad? No wonder I'm stuck at level seven my whole life!

Naturally, he did not dare to say these words.

“...Students still don’t quite understand.”

"It's normal to be unable to accept it for a moment when you suddenly learn this fact." The Demonic Machine Territory Master continued: "Let me tell you the reason why you stopped at the sixth level."

"The different realms of wizards are not just as simple as strength."

"Wizards of different levels have different powers."

"A first-level wizard, with a bloodline concentration of over 90%, and a powerful physique comparable to a legendary monster."

"Level 2 wizard, blood, magic and spirit tend to be balanced, and gain the power of the domain."

"Level 3 wizard, awakening the spirit of the devil."

"A fourth-level wizard, possessing the power of a demon."

"Fifth-level wizard, open up the world of mind, become a creation god, and step into the ranks of true gods."

"Sixth level wizard, understand the power of rules."

"A seventh-level wizard, able to harness the power of the soul."

"The eighth-level wizard awakens the eternal wizard spirit and enters the realm of the ancestors."

"Ninth-level wizard, master the truth."

"After reaching the seventh level, you begin to touch the power of the soul, and your soul..."

The Demonic Machine Territory Master looked at Roja with a somewhat regretful look, "You absorbed the power of the Evil God of Truth, right? Your soul has been polluted by the Evil God of Truth, and a polluted soul cannot enter the seventh level. "

"With the power of the God of Truth, you can gain power that far exceeds that of a wizard of the same level. For example, you can learn the fifth-level witchcraft from the remnant soul of the ninth-level truth wizard."

"If you use the power of level five witchcraft, no one in the four-color arena will be your opponent, right?"

"The Void Guard is facing six Tier 3 Void Zerg. Maybe you can defeat them by yourself, right?"

"Isn't it very comfortable to use the power of the void to strengthen the field without any side effects?"

"But this power comes at the cost of the soul being polluted!"

"You may become the strongest sixth-level wizard, but you will never be able to step into the seventh-level realm! Let alone the eighth or even ninth level!"

Roja felt dumbfounded after hearing what the Demon Machine Territory Lord said.

He learned the fifth-level witchcraft from the ninth-level truth wizard. He can use the power of the void to strengthen the domain without side effects... The master of the magic machine domain knew this and he was not surprised.

What really surprised him was——

Can the evil of truth actually pollute the soul?

The wizard who has obtained the power of the evil god of truth, has the upper limit of strength only at the sixth level?

This is really unexpected.

No wonder the Demon Machine Domain Master said that he was not qualified to be her student. It turned out to be this reason.

After understanding what was going on, Roja felt a little bitter inside.

He is different from other crooked melons and cracked jujubes!

The evil spirit of truth did not pollute his soul at all!

Let alone becoming a seventh-level wizard, there is no problem for him to become an eighth-level, ninth-level, or tenth-level wizard!

Other people's souls will be polluted and the upper limit will be blocked because those people's souls are too weak.

How could his innate eighth-level soul be contaminated?

It's just that he didn't dare to say these words at all.

Once the Demon Machine Domain Master knew about his innate eighth-level soul, what greeted him was not the Demon Machine Domain Master happily accepting him as his disciple, but various experiments that would be worse than death.

"Can't I be your student?" Roja sighed, looking very disappointed.

"You are not qualified to be my student and cannot enter the Trial City on the eighth floor of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave as an alternate student. However, as long as you are willing to agree to some conditions, you can still enter the Trial City and enjoy the same benefits as my students. treatment.”

"What conditions?"

"Become a God Hunter."

"God hunter?"

"The God Hunters are a group of people who specialize in collecting evils. The collected evils of truth are used to resurrect the ninth-level truth wizards, while other evils are sealed to prevent the resurrection of other powerful demons."

After a detailed explanation from the Master of the Magic Machine Domain, Roja quickly understood what a God Hunter was.

Divine evil is a strange life extending from the corpse of the devil.

Divine evil comes from the devil and is the continuation of the devil's life. As long as the gods are gathered together, it is possible to resurrect the dead demon god.

But the hunting of gods is very dangerous.

This danger does not come from how powerful the god is, but because the power of the god can pollute the soul.

Once the soul is contaminated, the wizard loses the possibility of entering the seventh level.

Even seventh-level wizards are at risk of being contaminated, which makes it more difficult to break through to the eighth-level realm.

Therefore, true geniuses in the wizarding world must stay away from the evil gods and must not covet the power of the evil gods.

Even if you are a seventh-level expert, it is best to stay as far away from divine evil as no one knows whether your soul will be contaminated unknowingly.

But it is necessary to collect the evils of truth and resurrect the ninth-level truth wizard.

When the ninth-level truth wizards were still there, the wizards were one of the top powers in the multiverse.

Since the death of the ninth-level truth wizard in the war of gods, the wizarding force has fallen from the top force in the multiverse to the first-class strength.

Although the difference between top and first-class is only one level, the gap between the two is huge!

For example, the Abyss, with its ninth-level Abyss Demon Lord, is a top force.

Void, with its ninth-level Void Lord sitting in command, is a top force.

The legendary ninth-level time and space demon...

The legendary Devourer who constantly devours the universe...

Facing top strength, the wizard could only silently endure the opponent's aggression. They only dare to resist when the other party invades, and they don't dare to take the initiative at all.

Facing the attack of a ninth-level strongman, there is no other choice but to give in.

Facing Hell, which is also a first-rate force, wizards dare to interact with them.

As for those second- and third-rate talents, they were ruthlessly exploited and suppressed by the wizards.

As for those less popular forces, they can only pray for resources that are not favored by wizards.

Although there are only a handful of top forces that are stronger than wizards, there are not many ninth-level experts still alive after the War of the Gods.

But each one of them is a terrifying existence that may destroy the wizarding world!

The wizarding world without a ninth-level wizard is too fragile!

More importantly--

It is said that after the wizard's defeat in the War of the Gods, the wizard's cultivation path was cursed by other demons, resulting in no more eighth-level and ninth-level wizards.

As a result, no matter how talented a wizard is, he can only reach the seventh level in the end.

Because there are too many wizards stuck in the seventh level for hundreds of millions of years, and seventh-level wizards are so powerful and long-lived that seventh-level wizards rarely die.

So there is a rumor that I don’t know whether it is true or not - there are more seventh-level wizards in the wizarding world than sixth-level wizards!

Whether it is to become a top force or to break the curse of the wizard's training path, it is inevitable to collect the evil of truth and resurrect the ninth-level truth wizard.

"As long as you are willing to become a God Hunter, you can still go to the Trial City."

"Then can I still participate in the tenth, eleventh and twelfth trials?"

"This is what I have arranged for my students. You are not qualified to be my student, and of course you do not need to participate in these three trials. However, after becoming a God Hunter, you can enjoy the same benefits as my students."

"...Okay, I do."

"I can allow your friends to share the same benefits as you."

"friend?"

"Aita, Nan En, and Rizan are the three people who will participate in the Void Guarding Trial with you."

"Forget it, I'm not familiar with them."

"I have given you three permissions to share benefits. It is up to you who you want to give it to... Work hard to become stronger before you are five hundred years old. After you are five hundred years old, I will give you the first hunting god mission. Looking forward to your performance.”

After saying that, the Demon Machine Territory Master slowly closed his eyes.

The temple returned to silence.

After Roja said goodbye to the Lord of the Magic Machine Domain, he stood up with complicated emotions, turned around and left the temple. (End of chapter)
