Rise of the Dark Witch

In front of the tomb of the Holy Father.

There is an endless stream of people coming to pay their respects.

Even though it has been a month, the number of people has not decreased.

However, all the people who came to pay their respects did not notice the figure standing in front of the tomb.

Roya has been standing here for a full month since the day his father was buried in Delhi.

He stared calmly at the grave in front of him.

There was no sadness in his eyes.

"Is this the path of a wizard?"

He originally thought that he would want to cry because he felt sad, and would burst into tears with sadness.

But no.

Over the years, he has seen too many family members and friends die.

Now even the death of his dearest father can't make any ripples in his heart.

"It's because my father has lived two hundred years and has lived enough, so I don't feel sad."

"Or is it because I don't have any love for him anymore, so I won't be sad?"

"What is the reason?"

He stood here and thought for a whole month, but still couldn't come up with an answer.

He raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky.

A light rain was falling.

Raindrops fell on him, soaking his hair and clothes.

He could use magic to block the rain, but he didn't do that.

Feeling the rain that keeps falling on you.

Feeling the body wrapped in the rain.

"It's so cold——"

Roja sighed.

"Maybe this is the fate of wizards."

"Maybe this is the fate I have to face."

"Keep moving forward, keep moving forward, and then watch the things you once regarded as treasures disappear in the torrent of time."

"When I become an eighth-level or ninth-level wizard, I might have the ability to resurrect them."

"It was just that time..."

"Would I do that?"

"Will I resurrect them?"

Roja doesn't know.

If he were given the ability to resurrect people now, he would resurrect many people without hesitation.

When he becomes an eighth-level or even a ninth-level wizard?

His choice would certainly have been very different.

"Farewell, father."

After looking at his father's grave in Delhi with calm eyes, he turned and left.

A slim figure wearing a close-fitting black robe immediately walked towards him quickly, with Gloria half a body behind him.

"Are you all ready?" Roja asked.

"Everything is ready, when will you be free?" Glory replied.

"It's getting late, let's wait until tomorrow."

"OK."

the next day.

All the official wizards of the Saint Luo Empire gathered together.

Roja is about to leave the Saint Luo Empire and go to the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons. He may not come back for decades. He needs to arrange tasks for these official wizards.

He sat in the middle of the hall, his sharp eyes scanning the people below.

After these years of development, their Saint Luo Empire has many more official wizards.

There are three second-level wizards.

Mandolin Wizard, Mhua Wizard, and Susang Wizard who came from Qianlin Ancient Kingdom to support.

His eyes were on Wizard Susang for a long time.

If you think about it carefully, his relationship with Wizard Susang is quite good.

At the founding ceremony of the Holy Luo Empire, Sorcerer Susang, who was still a first-level wizard, came to congratulate him on behalf of the Qianlin Ancient Kingdom.

When he completed the third magic machine trial, returned from the magic machine academy, and went to the Tomb of the Catastrophic Catastrophe to meet the third-level wizard Belexi, he was received by the first-level fake second-level wizard Susang.

Now more than sixty years have passed, and Wizard Susang has successfully condensed his domain and become a true second-level wizard.

When they requested the support of second-level wizards from the Qianlin Ancient Kingdom a few months ago, Wizard Susang took over the task and led three first-level wizards to the Holy Luo Empire.

If you think about it carefully, he and Wizard Susang are centuries old friends?

Thinking of this, he smiled at Wizard Susang.

Faced with his smile, Wizard Susang immediately showed a flattered expression.

After looking at all three second-level wizards.

Then, his eyes fell on the first-level wizards present.

There are many more first-level wizards than second-level wizards.

His nominal wife Glory, his grandson Jono, his student Lina, and the two newly promoted first-level wizards trained by the Saint Luo Empire over the years.

There are also the Poru wizards from the Ash Volcano and the Gran Demon Hunters from the Devil's Palm. These two worshipers have made many contributions to the Holy Luo Empire.

The remaining three people came with Wizard Susang, a green wizard from the ancient country of Qianlin.

Three second-level wizards and ten first-level wizards, such a luxurious lineup, can be regarded as a force that cannot be underestimated in the Shenwa Witch Territory.

Although these powers are not worthy of the current reputation of the Saint Luo Empire.

But Roja believes that it will only take another three to five hundred years, when Glory, Qiao Nuo, and Lina have all become second-level wizards, and when they have cultivated more first-level wizards, then even if they face the five great empires , their Saint Luo Empire is not inferior.

After looking at everyone one by one, Roja began to talk about the mission arrangements during his absence.

After arranging the tasks, the natural next step is to give rewards.

Why did these wizards unite around him?

Why are you willing to put all your time and energy into the Holy Roman Empire?

Not because they have a spirit of selfless dedication!

As a newly emerging empire, the Saint Luo Empire had just experienced the day of accumulating demons not long ago. The country as a whole was very poor and could not afford to support so many official wizards.

The Saint Luo Empire cannot afford it, but Roja can!

As the number one pharmacist in the Shenwa Witch Domain, Roja could easily bring out a few bottles of medicine and make the official wizards present happily work for him.

The day-long meeting is coming to an end.

The official wizards present left one after another.

Not long after, apart from Roja, only Glory, Jono and Lina were left.

The reason why Roja deliberately left the three of them behind was because he had other more important things to tell them.

Under the watchful eyes of Gloria, Jono, and Lina, Roja slowly said:

"Our Saint Luo Empire is getting stronger day by day, and there are more and more official wizards."

"But among the formal wizards present, the only ones who are truly loyal to the Holy Roman Empire and truly regard the Holy Roman Empire as their hometown are the three of you and the other two new wizards."

"Those two new wizards have average strength and talent. They will probably stop at the second stage of transformation in this life."

"While I am no longer here, the only people the Saint Luo Empire can really rely on are you three."

"You are my right-hand assistants and the pillars of the Saint Luo Empire."

"So, become stronger as soon as possible!"

Glory, Jono, and Lina all have very high talents and qualifications. They are all geniuses who will definitely become level two wizards if they do not perish.

Especially Qiao Nuo and Lina, with their talents, they have a high probability of becoming level three wizards in the future.

By then, the Holy Luo Empire will have two third-level wizards, Jono and Lina, in charge. Even without Roja, the Holy Luo Empire will be able to develop steadily in the Shenwa Witch Domain.

It just takes a long time for them to grow up.

Before leaving the Holy Luo Empire and going to the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, he decided to conduct an assessment and reward the three of them.

"It's time to test some of your strength."

"Don't let me down."

"Who comes first?"

As soon as Roja finished speaking.

Lina, who looked delicate and cute, wore a knee-length skirt and a black coat, and looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old high school student. She walked out with a cross sword in her hand.

"Teacher, let me go first." Lina knelt down in front of Roja.

Roja looked at his most accomplished student, Lina.

Lina, who comes from the bipolar hunter clan, broke free from the shackles of her bloodline with his help and became the first official wizard in the history of the bipolar hunter clan.

So far, three transformations have been completed.

Even though she only shed her life three times, because she possesses the blood-forbidden talent Flame Fighting Blood Soul, she can compete even against a pseudo-second-level wizard.

"Lina, let me see how much your strength has improved over the years."

Roja waved his hand, and a solid barrier enveloped the entire hall.

Immediately afterwards.

"Wood Soul Armorer!"

A huge figure 20 meters tall, wearing full-body armor with green lines all over the armor, suddenly fell in front of Lina.

The Wood Soul Armorer itself possesses strength comparable to that of an overlord-level monster.

If it is equipped with the magic pattern witchcraft that Fusheng Land helps to refine, its strength can be improved to a higher level on the original basis.

However, the opponent is only Lina, who has shed her life three times, so there is no need to wear a magic weapon.

"The battle begins!"

After Roja's words fell.

Lina jumped back instantly like a frightened cat, opening a thousand meters distance from the Wood Soul Armorer.

Her eyes were fixed on the Wood Soul Armorer, and her muscles were tense.

Facing the nervous Lina, the Wood Soul Armorer just stood there, calmly waiting for Lina's attack.

Qiang——

Lina pulled out the cross sword in her hand.

"Yam Dou Blood Soul!"

As the forbidden blood talent Flame Fighting Blood Soul was activated, Lina's whole body was ignited with fiery red fighting flames.

Under this Yan Dou magic power, which was twenty times more destructive than ordinary magic power, the whole room was shaken violently.

If Roja hadn't used the barrier to protect the hall, the hall would have been shattered the moment Lina used the Flame Dou Blood Soul.

"Resisting Flame Fighting Armor!"

A pair of dark red magic armor appeared on Lina's body, covering every inch of her skin.

The Flame Control Armor is a companion magic weapon of the bipolar hunter clan.

The Flame Fighting Armor has powerful defense, can store magic power as hidden energy, can help heal the body, and can resist mental attacks. It is a top-quality companion magic weapon that can be called a perfect armor!

When Lina became an official wizard, this superb companion magic weapon was transformed into innate witchcraft.

Lina, who activated her forbidden blood talent and wore dark red magic armor, faced the Wood Soul Armorer not far away who exuded a strong sense of oppression.

He growled low, dwarfed his body, and rushed forward!

She used the most powerful magic skill she had mastered!

"Yen Dou Demon Slash!"

"Rumble--"

A deafening roar echoed in the hall.

Hot air waves swept around.

She cut through the air at eighteen times the terrifying speed of sound, and arrived in front of the Wood Soul Armorer in an instant.

She is just a first-level wizard in the third metamorphosis realm!

Even Roja, who is in the second level Expansion Realm, can only run twelve times the speed of sound without relying on the Origin Transformation and the Jenga of Time.

Lina can reach a top speed of eighteen times the speed of sound!

"Is this the horror of the forbidden blood talent?"

"Invincible at the same level!"

"Fight across levels!"

Roja, Jono and Glory, who were watching the battle, couldn't help but marvel.

Lena is strong.

His strength is only stronger than that of Yeck, who obtained the blood-forbidden talent and the body-casting magic fruit with the help of Zoqi, the son of the abyss.

An ordinary first-level wizard would be instantly killed by her upon meeting him.

She can even fight against a first-level pseudo-second-level wizard.

But the strength of the Wood Soul Armorer is not comparable to that of a first-level wizard or a pseudo-second-level wizard!

Lina relied on the magic skill "Fire Fighting Demon Slash" to explode at eighteen times the speed of sound?

The Wood Soul Armorer itself has eighteen times the speed of sound!

Facing Lina's offensive, the Wood Soul Armorer didn't even think about defending.

It bared its chest and was ready to receive Lina's attack. At the same time, it raised its fist and planned to beat Lina mercilessly when Lina's attack landed on it and caused stiffness.

Lina noticed the Wood Soul Armorer's plan.

She was thinking rapidly in the back of her mind.

"Is its defense strong enough to withstand my attack?"

"Even an overlord-level monster won't feel good if it eats this move of mine!"

"But……"

She didn't dare to gamble.

If she faced the teacher's strength test, she would be defeated in one encounter.

How disappointed is the teacher?

Maybe she will be abandoned by the teacher?

But Lina, who used the Flame Fight Demon Slayer, didn't just stop when she wanted to.

The power of Yan Dou's Demon-Breaking Slash is too powerful. Eighteen times the speed of sound is too fast. Once it is used, there is no way back.

Although it cannot be stopped, it is still possible to fine-tune the position of the attack.

Her original plan was to attack the Wood Soul Armorer's chest.

Since the Wood Soul Armorer has strong defense against her attacks, it would be better to cut off the Wood Soul Armorer's arm instead.

"drink!"

Lina shouted, and the cross sword in her hand slashed towards the Wood Soul Armorer's right arm at several times his movement speed.

Naturally, the Wood Soul Armorer would not stand still and let Lina attack.

Swords and fists collided.

Boom!

Terrifying waves erupted from them.

Even the ground that had been strengthened by Roja's barrier was still cracking inch by inch under the action of the powerful shock wave. The spider web-like cracks stretched for hundreds of meters with them as the center.

"The blade is only slightly sunk in?"

Lina was extremely surprised.

In her expectation, even if she couldn't cut off the Wood Soul Armorer's arm with one sword, she could still leave a hideous wound on the Wood Soul Armorer's arm.

The result was that the blade sank slightly?

The defensive power of the Wood Soul Armorer is really terrifying!

She originally thought that Roja would take out the Wood Soul Armorer as her opponent. The strength of the Wood Soul Armorer should be similar to hers, or at most just a little stronger than her.

I didn't expect it to be so strong!

At this moment, she already understood - "It is impossible to defeat the Wood Soul Armorer!"

Facing another fist swung by the Wood Soul Armorer, she immediately ducked sideways.

When evading the attack, she decisively used the only witchcraft she knew - the viewer's secret spirit!

The viewer's secret spirit is a spiritual witchcraft that is extremely difficult to learn.

It allows the wizard's consciousness to leave the body and control the body to fight like a third party watching.

While the viewer's secret spirit lasts, her thinking speed can be accelerated thousands of times, and her use of body, magic, and mental power can increase dramatically. It is an extremely powerful auxiliary spiritual witchcraft.

Roya specially selected it for Lina. It can be called a low-end version of the Certificate of Two Souls, and it is extremely suitable for Lina's powerful witchcraft.

At the moment of using the viewer's secret spirit.

Lina felt as if her consciousness had entered a different space where she was the only one.

In this different space, the flow of time in the outside world became so slow, and she controlled her body to fight like a puppeteer.

The Yan Dou magic power that was burning fiercely on her body actually disappeared under her control.

But the body still exudes a faint red light.

This is a symbol that she has complete control over Yan Dou's magic power and that there is no leakage of Yan Dou magic power!

The magic power of Yan Dou is an extremely violent magic power, and it is not easy to completely control it.

After using the witchcraft viewer's secret spirit, Lina did it easily.

Lina looked at the Wood Soul Armorer with calm eyes.

Facing the Wood Soul Armorer's offensive, she continued to dodge and attack at twelve times the speed of sound, and occasionally used magic skills to attack the Wood Soul Armorer at eighteen times the speed of sound.

Under the influence of the witchcraft of the viewer's secret spirit, she could clearly see all the attacks from the Wood Soul Armorer.

She was able to control her body and complete actions that were only theoretical but impossible in practice.

"Qiang! Qiang! Qiang!——"

Lina's long sword struck the Wood Soul Armorer one after another.

It's a pity that her powerful attack, which can break through the defense of even overlord-level monsters, only left a shallow scratch on the Wood Soul Armorer, and then the scratch disappeared in the next moment.

Although she does not have the strength to seriously injure the Wood Soul Armorer, she can still achieve a 50-50 matchup with the Wood Soul Armorer within the duration of the Spiritual Witchcraft Viewer's Secret Spirit.

However, the spiritual witchcraft of the viewer's secret spirit consumes a lot of energy.

Even with Lina's huge mental power far exceeding that of an ordinary first-level wizard, she couldn't last long.

Seeing that Lina and the Wood Soul Armorer had been fighting fiercely for more than ten minutes.

Roja, knowing that Lina's mental power was about to be exhausted, decided to let the Wood Soul Armorer end the battle.

Wood Soul Armorers are made from plant clones.

He does not possess any witchcraft, witchcraft or bloodline talents, and does not even have a domain. However, Roja's physique, the Wood Soul Armorer, was not only inherited perfectly, but also greatly enhanced on the original basis.

What's Roja's physique?

He has the bloodline of the Jiehai Shenhua. He is a plant wizard with the ability to transform his body into a plant.

He possesses huge spiritual power that can overwhelm the second-level spiritual wizards of the same realm. With a massive amount of spiritual power as a backing, any spiritual skill can be extremely powerful.

After receiving Roja's order, Mu Hun began to fight with all his strength.

The previous Wood Soul Armorers only used their bodies to engage in hand-to-hand combat with Lina.

Now let’s start using skills!

"Spiritual skill - spiritual immersion!"

Invisible fluctuations of mental power surged out of the Wood Soul Armorer.

Lina's flame-controlling armor has the function of defending against mental power, and the spiritual witchcraft viewer's secret spirit can defend against mental attacks to a certain extent.

Ordinary mental attacks can't hurt Lina at all.

But the amount of spiritual power of the Wood Soul Armorer is ten times that of Roja himself!

Luo Ya's mental power is already huge, but the Wood Soul Armorer's strength is actually ten times that of Luo Ya?

In the face of absolute power, all the bells and whistles are useless.

Under the fluctuation of mental power emanating from the Wood Soul Armorer, Lina's head suddenly became dizzy, and her movements suddenly became extremely stiff.

"Magic skill - magic vine entanglement!"

The Wood Soul Armorer's right arm turned into dozens of extremely tough vines and grabbed towards Lina.

After Lina struggled awkwardly for a while, she was tied up by the vines.

With the powerful strength of the Wood Soul Armorer, Lina's body can be shattered with just a little force at this time.

But this is just a competition. Lina is still Roja's lovely and precious student. How could the Wood Soul Armorer kill her?

"The battle is over." Roya announced.

The Wood Soul Armorer let go of Lina, stepped aside and stood like a sculpture.

Lina, who had regained her freedom, removed the Flame Fighting Blood Soul, the Flame Fighting Armor and the Spectator's Secret Spirit, and stood exhausted.

Even though we only played for more than ten minutes.

But because the Wood Soul Armorer is so fast and powerful, she will be seriously injured if she is not careful. Therefore, in this battle, she has been dancing on the tip of a knife, focusing both physically and mentally. To the extreme.

This kind of battle against an enemy that is far stronger than oneself takes a huge toll on both physical strength and mental energy.

At the moment the battle ended, Lina was so tired that she wanted to lie down and sleep.

But now she couldn't care less about the physical and mental exhaustion.

As soon as the battle ended, she immediately looked at the Wood Soul Armorer with shocked eyes.

"What kind of puppet is this?"

"Isn't it too powerful?"

She could see that the Wood Soul Armorer didn't even use one-tenth of his strength when facing her.

This failure was a huge blow to her!

If she were simply defeated at the hands of a powerful enemy, she would quickly regroup.

The problem is that we were defeated at the hands of mere puppets!

Over the years, she has worked hard to practice and become stronger.

The reason why she desires power so much is to be able to help her respected teacher.

As a result, her teacher casually pulled out a puppet, and its strength could easily crush her.

Why wasn't this a huge shock to her?

Her teacher doesn't need her kind of fighting power, right?

Maybe after this battle, her teacher has seen through her abilities and wants to abandon her?

He found Lina looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Roja knew that Lina must have been hit because she was easily defeated by a puppet.

So he comforted him: "These Wood Soul Armorers are one of my trump cards. They are high-end combat capabilities that can play an important role when I fight against opponents of the same level. It is normal that you are not their opponent now. "

"Really? So teacher, you won't abandon Lina?" Lina asked hurriedly.

"Huh? Why do you have such an idea? I also hope that you will become a third-level and fourth-level wizard in the future and fight alongside me." Roja smiled.

"Lina will definitely work hard to become stronger! She will definitely become a good student who can help the teacher!" Lina swore with clenched fists.

But there was a lingering sadness deep in her eyes.

Obviously she herself didn't believe what she said.

Apart from the fact that Roja is too strong and progresses too fast, it is impossible for her to catch up.

There is another extremely important reason, and that is - Yan Dou Blood Soul!

The bloodline talent of the bipolar hunter clan, Flame Fighting Blood Soul, is extremely powerful as a blood-forbidden talent.

It can easily crush opponents in the same realm, and can fight powerful enemies across realms.

It is a powerful bloodline talent that everyone dreams of.

But it was okay when he was at the apprentice level. After he became an official wizard and his cultivation level continued to improve, the flaws of Yan Dou Blood Soul, a blood-forbidden talent, slowly became apparent.

Yan Dou Blood Soul has a major flaw that cannot be ignored! (End of chapter)
