Witch: Accumulate Experience Through The Knight Breathing Technique

Chapter 2786: Chapter 570: Ancient Secrets, Mythical Origins, Insect Race Mysteries!

Levi silently nodded, signaling the other party to continue speaking. This made the Heavenly Will understand that Levi must be one of the backups left by Sauron. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to know such ancient secrets, which even some Legendary Wizards might not be aware of.

He continued:

"The Star Dragon King and Blood Dark Dragon King are two among the few Dragon Clans that surpass mythical beings, hence they are called Dragon Kings. Being part of the Dragon Clan is just one of their identities; there is another, unknown to the world."

Levi understood and said:

"Star Beast!"

The middle-aged man smiled and said:

"Yes, you could say that... After the Star Worms invaded the astral world, numerous Star Saints fell from the Sky Dome. They dimmed down, lost the Ancient God Power, lost their home in the astral world, but they did not die completely.

A large portion of them transformed into new forms of life. This is what we refer to as ’Mythical Creatures’. Whether it’s the Dragon Clan, Frost Giant, or even the World Tree, all powerful life forms born this way are almost always evolutions of Star Gods. In other words, the astral world was their true homeland.

The strongest among them would be the Star Dragon King and Blood Dark Dragon King. Their power and lifespan far exceeded other Mythical Creatures. Furthermore, the Star Dragon King was once the leader of all Star Beasts. After its Divine Enthronement, it split into the Dragon King and Star Beast, becoming the last two of the Seven Orthodox Gods.

The Star Beast, transformed into the ’Lord of the Stars’, is also known as ’Star Herder’ and ’Shepherd of the Astral World’. I suppose this is where their titles come from. In pursuit of eternal lifespan, the Star Dragon King betrayed the star beasts and Blood Dark Dragon King, choosing to ascend to Godhood. The astral world did not want to wage war against it, so it chose to subdue it, but also feared its power. Hence, the Star Dragon King had to split itself into two, severing itself once.

For other Mythical Creatures, losing the identity of a Star God and without the protection of the astral world, they transformed from beings almost undying and immortal to what your wizards call ’longevity species’, living only tens of thousands of years. If they knew this, they might consider it ironic... living for tens of thousands of years, is that long life?"

In Levi’s heart, there was a sense of helplessness. For more humble, ordinary beings, the humans, short-lived species, tens of thousands of years indeed seemed incredibly long!

The middle-aged man naturally understood Levi’s thoughts. The barbarian tribes were somewhat stronger than humans, but his earlier words were not meant to mock humans, but more self-deprecating because the life of barbarian tribes and humans was about the same.

These are two equally unfortunate races.

His gaze recalled the years following the Star Dragon King’s campaigns, revealing many hidden knowledge he had investigated and concealed deep within, to the person before him who was suspected to be Sauron’s backup.

Although Sauron had once offended him, borrowing and never returning, it now appeared to be part of his plan all along.

The Dark Ancient Tower and Nora’s rescue were Sauron’s way of repaying. Now Heavenly Will seemed to regard Sauron as the only one who understood him.

"You should know, even before ancient times, the Multidimensional Plane belonged to the Mythical Era, at that time, Mythical Creatures wandering in the Universe were far more numerous than now. They were once stars in the sky, with Ancient God’s Blood flowing within them.

But their lifespans were too short, and many were hunted by Heavenly Father, enslaved to become mounts, or servants. To continue their lives and let their power be passed down through generations, they evolved something known as ’Bloodline’, an indescribable power.

But I think you might have some insights on this, as the path of knights is essentially the Bloodline Path, right, sir Levi?"

Upon hearing this, Levi nodded slightly.

This Heavenly Will truly resembles an All-Knowing divine being, comprehending everything, completely changing his stereotypical perception of the barbarian tribes.

The middle-aged man stood with hands behind his back, head held high, exuding a confident aura, he said: "Regarding bloodline, perhaps I know no less than you... because I invented this terminology."

What the hell.

This was Levi’s first thought. He hadn’t been too surprised earlier, but this time he was truly shocked; the person before him seemed to be the ancestor of knights?

He knew the path of knights was not created by Sauron, because the easter eggs from Sauron showed that the Bloodline Path preceded the path of the wizard, even more ancient. But Sauron never mentioned who created the bloodline.

Unexpectedly, it was this person.

Heavenly Will raised his brows, but sensing Levi might have misunderstood somewhat, explained:

"Though I created the bloodline, and successfully transplanted this in part onto the humans, for certain reasons, I didn’t continue. The human who created most of your knight bloodlines and breathing techniques is another. You’ll know who in the future; overall, I can only be considered half the creator of knights."

He then explained how he discovered the bloodline and the Evolution Stone Plate to Levi once more. After these words, Levi’s impression of Heavenly Will improved significantly. One was the admiration for this person’s research spirit, and the other was not expecting this person to be quite humble—he wouldn’t argue even if Levi claimed himself as the Ancestor of Knights."

He said:

"Relying on bloodline, some Mythical Creatures were able to pass down through generations. They might die, but their power, tracking marks, and traces in the Multidimensional Plane can continue. Some might self-split and degrade, constantly branching out, ensuring that their bloodline won’t be completely eliminated by the astral world."
