A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 775: Chapter 773: Perseverance Abyss

Perseverance Abyss, controlled by the Knight’s Persistence Academy, is the relatively smallest among the six major abysses underground.

"I thought you would be taken by the great Five Rings True Spirit Sorcerer to the Wizard Continent. It’s been just a few decades, and you’ve come to travel in the Knight’s Persistence Academy?"

Emerging from under the black robe were two eyes, belonging to Taghibelli of Peacock Flying Feathers, summoned by Green.

Descending from the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab, here was still some distance from the Knight’s Persistence Academy. The mysterious figure descending from the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab attracted the admiring gazes of some Legendary Knights undergoing arduous training, filled with longing and aspiration, biting their teeth as they started tougher training on themselves.

"Humph, back then Master Eight only came to save my young master. You, little guy, just followed along and that’s fine. After gaining so much benefit from the Abyss True Spirit Wizard, you don’t even know to pay respect to Master Eight, do you want him to personally ask for it?"

Xiao Ba stood on Green’s shoulder, grunting unhappily, looking at Taghibelli with various degrees of displeasure, as if Taghibelli had taken great advantage back then.

In the sky, the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab and the Enigmatic Thousand-Headed Bird circled once and then flew in different directions to forage and rest.

Looking at Taghibelli’s astonished expression, Green said lowly: "Ignore it. This time, I’m visiting the Perseverance Abyss especially to see two Legendary Knights to whom I once granted Bloodline Sorcery. But it has been many years now, and I’m unsure how to find them. I hope through some of your connections here, you can help me locate these two little ones."

In front of Green’s chest, the Crystal Ball floated with the images of a man and a woman—Mu Yi and Boxiang Yulan from the Six Rings Saint Tower Nine-Headed Fury Academy Moth Frog City.

"These two, named Mu Yi and Boxiang Yulan, come from the Wizard Continent’s Six Rings Saint Tower."

After taking a glance at the two in the Crystal Ball, Taghibelli nodded and said solemnly: "If they’ve successfully activated the Bloodline Sorcery of Legendary Knights, it would be much easier. Generally, they would be registered in the Knight’s Persistence Academy, and I can find them easily through some relationships inside. Give me some time."

Xiao Ba grumbled discontentedly: "Consider this as your payback."

Green flicked Xiao Ba lightly, smiling towards Taghibelli: "Then I’ll leave it to you, Master. Meanwhile, I’ll take the chance to experience the Knight’s Persistence Academy’s Bloodline Sorcery training methods."

"Okay."

Taghibelli’s black-robed figure blurred, swiftly flying towards the distance, moving briskly without any hesitation.

...

Knight’s Persistence Academy, most highly values perseverance.

Every Legendary Knight who achieves cultivation might not possess insightful brightness or extraordinary wisdom, nor might they have crossed mountains of corpses and seas of blood, but each step of growth is inevitably marked by countless sweat drops from relentless effort.

One step at a time, knights in training passed by Green, burdened by weights, sweating, heavily panting, breaking through their original limits, growing and evolving in persistence.

Perseverance Abyss is entirely different from other abysses.

One-Star Abyss, Two-Star Abyss, Three-Star Abyss, Four-Star Abyss, Five-Star Abyss—the strongest always gather at the center of the abyss underground, overseen by the Abyssal King.

However, at the Knight’s Persistence Academy, only fledgling Legendary Knights who have just acquired Bloodline Sorcery from every corner of the Wizard World choose to train here.

The true strong will, like Taghibelli and ascetics, temper themselves in the most arduous and barren lands beyond the abyss, seeking greater breakthroughs.

"Oh? It’s really an academy?"

Standing at the entrance of the Knight’s Persistence Academy, Green murmured in surprise, gazing at the magnificent academy gate.

In Green’s mind, the Knight’s Persistence Academy was either akin to the political central position of the Wizard Continent’s Elemental Holy Towers or similar to the cultural activity center of the Abyssal Underworld, or even to the world will gathering center of the Sky City. It was unexpected to find upon arrival that it was indeed only an academy, a genuine academy.

"Gagaga, Young Master, wonder how’s that Mu Yi kid doing now, if it weren’t for you back then, with him and Boxiang Yulan..."

Xiao Ba fell into reminiscing, murmuring wishfully.

"Master, I am the knight responsible for hospitality at the academy. Is this your first time visiting the Knight’s Persistence Academy?"

A Legendary Knight on a massive wild Sabretooth Tiger descended nimbly—a six-meter-long, tusked, gracious figure—that landed thirty meters ahead of the mysterious wizard with a semi-transparent vague body, yet dared not advance any further, looking frightened, like a small dog sticking out its tongue, slowly retreating as the knight dismounted.

"Hmm, does the Knight’s Persistence Academy have personnel specially responsible for hospitality?"

This was a male Legendary Knight, dashing and lively, appearing relaxed and carefree, though merely a First Level Knight, exhibiting magnificent charm.

Yet, under Green’s Face of Truth piercing glare, the knight’s rigid body and the cold sweat layers seeping from pores revealed his inner turmoil.

"During my time on the Wizard Continent, I’ve heard much about the Knight’s Persistence Academy’s reputation. Coincidentally, two Legendary Knights formed a Bloodline contract with me. Now, after over a thousand years, I’ve come to see."

Green spoke plainly, walking ahead with Xiao Ba.

"Haha, Master, if you have a destination, I won’t disturb you. But if not, perhaps you might visit our academy exhibit hall. You could even experience it firsthand if you’re interested, how about it?"

"Oh, the academy exhibit hall?"

Green turned his head, showing some interest.

"Since that’s the case, let’s go have a look."

It seemed that in the effort to promote the inheritance of knight culture, the Knight’s Persistence Academy was striving to showcase its cultural essence outwardly, especially to high-order wizards like Green traveling across the continent.

With growing interest, Green followed inside the Knight’s Persistence Academy.

...

"This is the mind-locking tortoise shell, weighing seven thousand three hundred pounds. Generally, Third-Level Legendary Knights each have one for long-term bearing. Would the Master like to try it?"

Green took the mind-locking tortoise shell with one hand, weighed it, then shook his head with a light laugh, tossing it aside casually, said indifferently: "Too light, find another."

The male knight inwardly clicked his tongue, his gaze sweeping across a row of exhibits, eyeing higher-grade items.

...

A month and a half later.

In such a short time, Green had visited all the knight culture training samples in the exhibit hall, merely warming up. On this day, a man and a woman appeared in front of Green quietly meditating.

"Master Green."

Green opened his eyes, looking at the weathered faces of Mu Yi and Boxiang Yulan, their gazes towards him full of unspeakable reverence and heartfelt anguish, Green smiled faintly, calmly saying: "It’s good to see you’re well, good to see you’re well..."

Having grown accustomed to the various farewell processes with familiar friends, now seeing the two perfectly standing before him, Green’s heart was filled with warmth.

With this final wish fulfilled, it’s time to journey and explore foreign domains.
