    Chapter 0089 Sixth Rank! (Chapter 1! Please Subscribe!)

    Li Wei carried not only Maka’s head, but also his only hope of obtaining the Giant Breathing Method.

    Moreover, Maka was truly a despicable person.

    Even in this dark age, he was incredibly vile.

    Li Wei returned to the Blood Hand Gang’s winery.

    “If killing doesn’t involve looting the corpse, then killing is meaningless,” Li Wei muttered to himself, beginning to search the body.

    Nothing is more enjoyable than killing monsters and getting gold coins.

    If there is, it’s a huge loot!

    Unfortunately, the Blood Hand Gang didn’t yield a huge loot. In the end, Li Wei only collected a few hundred Tuva gold coins and a Breathing Method inheritance diagram carefully preserved by the Blood Hand leader.

    There were some dried bloodstains on the diagram.

    Li Wei didn’t rush to open it. After putting it away, he left this place of strife, leaving only a Deathbird’s Call mask quietly covering the Blood Hand leader’s disfigured face.

    By the time he reached the Shining Tavern, Li Wei had already changed into his White Wolf mask.

    The old man from the Melone family didn’t seem to be at the tavern, so Li Wei wasn’t in a hurry.

    Instead, he found a private room and ordered a glass of black rum for himself.

    He opened the Breathing Method he obtained from the Blood Hand leader.

    In the diagram, fifty-six little figures were dancing around a blood-red sea beast.

    The beast looked like a whale, its entire body covered in blood-red scales. It opened its bloody maw, as if it could swallow the heavens and the earth.

    “Blood Whale Breathing Method, a stamina-type bloodline Breathing Method, and it’s of excellent quality?!”

    Even Li Wei’s calm demeanor couldn’t contain his excitement.

    This was an excellent quality Breathing Method! To obtain it from such an insignificant small fry?

    This is what a surprise is!

    It’s like playing a game; getting an orange-quality item from the final boss isn’t as satisfying as getting a top-tier blue item from a monster in the newbie village.

    “Calm down, I’ll cultivate this after returning to Black Water Valley.”

    After calming down, Li Wei continued to wait for the old man’s arrival.

    Throughout the night, chaos reigned outside.

    But miraculously, the Shining Tavern remained peaceful.

    “This is the power of strength,” Li Wei couldn’t help but admire.

    The Shining Tavern was like a witness, witnessing the big and small events of the Holy City.

    The masked old man arrived at Li Wei’s private room.

    His breathing was rapid, and his body trembled.

    “Did you bring it?” he asked.

    “The Giant Breathing Method, Lord Melone,” Li Wei softly asked, not rushing to open the head package.

    The old man tremblingly pulled out a sheepskin scroll from his bosom.

    “I apologize to my ancestors, I am incompetent. I possess the Giant Breathing Method, yet I have achieved nothing,” the old man wept.

    “From now on, it will only become one of your many collections, disappearing into the dust of history, just like our Melone family,” he instantly looked even older, speaking weakly.

    Li Wei opened it and saw countless small figures, similar to the Black Snake Breathing Method. He roughly counted them; just like the Black Snake Breathing Method, there were seventy-one!

    This meant it was a top-tier Breathing Method of the same quality as the Black Snake Breathing Method, capable of directly cultivating to the Great Knight realm!

    These seventy-one figures were worshipping a snow mountain, their postures and movements varied.

    But it wasn’t a snow mountain; it was a giant.

    The legendary Frost Giant, possessing immense strength, capable of moving mountains and seas!

    After confirming the Giant Breathing Method was genuine, Li Wei felt like he was dreaming.

    Unexpectedly, he had actually obtained the Giant Breathing Method.

    Frost Giant’s Armor, I’m coming!

    Li Wei handed the head to the old man.

    “Maka, it’s indeed Maka!”

    This man, possibly the last member of the Melone family, frantically clutched Maka’s lifeless head, popping out Maka’s eyeballs, venting his fury.

    After he had finished venting, Li Wei suddenly asked, “Lord Melone, I would like to respectfully ask why your family was annihilated by the Church?”

    The old man was stunned, seemingly trying to recall something.

    “There’s no reason. Many families have been annihilated by the Church. Our family was just one unlucky victim. Aren’t you curious why none of those legendary families that produced legendary figures still exist?”

    Li Wei said, “Because they were all eliminated by the Church?”

    “Yes, young man, in these seven kingdoms, there are no living legends, nor long-lasting families. Kingdoms will fall, legends will perish, only the Church remains. Eras change, they merely change their name. All is vanity, only God is eternal!

    Do you guess why the Military Minister dared to defy the Emperor’s Fist? It’s because of the support of the Storm Church. When the Church feels that the Emperor’s Fist will become an uncontrollable wild horse, threatening the faith in the true God, it’s time to purge the Emperor’s Fist.

    Humanity doesn’t need to believe in the Emperor’s Fist. In this Tuva Empire, there is only one faith, and that is the Storm Sovereign!

    No matter how strong a mortal is, they are still mortal, and mortals will eventually die.

    Thank you, young man. I offer you a toast of Hundred Flowers Wine, may your future wife be as beautiful as a Hundred Flowers Knight.”

    After the old man finished speaking, he left with Maka’s head, his mind somewhat unhinged after decades of pent-up vengeance being released.

    Li Wei returned to the cellar. He had all the gold coins from this trip to the Holy City forged into rings and wore them on his arms, hidden under his sleeves.

    He then secured his other gains from this trip to the Holy City. He found the Wild Dog Knight at the Shining Tavern, and then the two escaped the city through the Blood Hand Gang’s secret passage.

    Li Wei looked towards the burial ground in the south, where the Deathbird’s Call’s base might be located, considering that a Shadow-level assassin might be there.

    Remembering the terrifying power of the Pale Shadow’s strike, Li Wei temporarily abandoned the idea of breaking in. He had gained so much from this trip to the Holy City, and he didn’t want to fail here.

    “Let you live a little longer,” Li Wei thought.

    Then he looked at the Wild Dog Knight, ready to depart.

    “Let’s go,” Li Wei said indifferently.

    “It seems you had a fruitful trip, sir,” the Wild Dog Knight laughed.

    “And you?” Li Wei countered.

    “Heeheehee, I’m retiring after this job. I’ll return to my hometown, buy a large manor, become a minor noble, marry a few beautiful wives, have a dozen children, live happily ever after. It’s good to be alive,” the Wild Dog Knight suddenly sighed.

    “No more nonsense, lead the way,” Li Wei said.

    The two disappeared over the horizon. Although they weren’t riding horses, both were Knights, so their speed wasn’t slow.

    Along the way, Li Wei “borrowed” a group of fleeing soldiers’ horses.

    He continued on his journey with the Wild Dog Knight, riding horses.

    By the time they returned to Icewind City, it was the Winter Moon.

    After parting ways with the Wild Dog Knight, Li Wei didn’t rush back to his territory.

    After the cultivation during the journey, his Black Snake Breathing Method was on the verge of breaking through to the sixth rank.

    He simply rented a room and stayed in Icewind City for a few more days.

    He focused on improving his Black Snake Breathing Method.

    Finally, one day, as the winter sun shone on Li Wei’s sweat-drenched body, Li Wei let out a long sigh of relief.

    In his heart, the black snake became longer, thicker, and more imposing.

    A snake suppressing the Sea Demon, Giant Rhinoceros, Giant Bear, Savage Bull, and Human-Faced Spider.

    The black snake danced wildly, black energy surged!

    The upper half of Li Wei’s body was almost entirely covered in black energy, only the waist area remained uncovered.

    “Sixth Rank! Not easy. Finally a High-Rank Knight.”

    Li Wei stood up, stretching his limbs and feeling his increasingly stronger body.

    He retracted the black energy, put on his clothes, and opened his proficiency panel.

    Li Wei————

    Black Snake Breathing Method: Sixth Rank (1/40000), Special Effect: Advanced Defense

    [Advanced Defense: Possesses strong defense against blunt weapon attacks, ordinary sharp weapon attacks can hardly break through your black energy]

    “After breaking through to the high rank, not only has the area covered by the black energy increased, but the quality of the black energy itself has also greatly improved.”

    “Now, ordinary arrow attacks should be ineffective against me, just like the Iron Mountain before. No, the defense is even stronger than the Iron Mountain.”

    Aside from the Black Snake Breathing Method breaking through to the sixth rank, Li Wei’s other major breakthrough during this period was the Giant Breathing Method, which he had finally started cultivating.

    Li Wei————

    Giant Breathing Method: First Rank (1/1000)

    “I wonder if I can wear the Frost Giant’s Armor now.”

    Li Wei, with anticipation, retrieved his gleaming stones from their hiding place and set off for home.
