Chapter 1005: The Fallen Fifth-Circle! (1)
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Evernight Kingdom.
In the cold wilderness, there was a valley with dense frost elements.
There was a wizard tower. This wizard tower was completely carved from ice and was crystal clear.
At the top of the wizard tower, a giant bird covered in gorgeous blue feathers stood proudly. It gently combed its feathers.
Occasionally, some feathers would fall. The moment they left its body, they would turn into white cold flames and disappear without a trace.
This was a fifth-circle creature, the Frost Flame Ice Bird. It was the Ice Phoenix Ferlin’s Primordial Spiritual Beast.
The Frost Flame Ice Bird absorbed the elemental power and was actually cultivating on its own.
The growth of spiritual beasts could also be reflected in spiritual wizards. Therefore, in the early stages, the cultivation speed of psychic wizards was relatively faster.
Of course, this sect was limited by the quality of spiritual beasts in the later stages. There were very few experts.
Since its birth, not a single Legendary Wizard had appeared, and there were very few Grand Wizards.
The last time a Grand Wizard was born was also tens of thousands of years ago.
The current School of Spiritualism truly respected the primordial soul.
Compared to the traditional Elementalist School, which had a large number of people, it looked shabby.
Of course, this was not the worst.
According to the Wizard Council’s last census report, after being certified by the congress, they could form their own wizard school.
The worst was… the School of Insects.
The School of Insects originated from the School of Spiritualism. But now, it was declining. The abilities of the wizards of the School of Insects were all on the Zergs.
Their combat strength was relatively low. It was also a sect that controlled other creatures to fight.
The spiritual beasts of the School of Spiritualism could at least fuse with wizards. This would increase the ability of wizards to protect themselves in all aspects.
The wizards of the School of Insects could not do it. This was because the Zergs were not strong individually, but in groups.
To most wizards of the School of Insects, selecting a single Zerg as a spiritual beast did not have much combat strength.
Moreover, because the Zergs had to be placed in the Bug House, very few wizards from the School of Insects had entered the Dark Ancient Tower since ancient times.
It would be useless even if they went. There were so many Zergs that one could not bring them in at all.
As time passed, the School of Insects was declining.
Today, even the primordial soul wizard was gone.
Only a very small number of School of Insects wizards were still struggling at death’s door in the Wizard World.
Under the choice of survival of the fittest, the only way to welcome the School of Insects was probably to die.
It was said that if the School of Insects reached the later stages, they would have countless Zergs and could sweep through their peers.
However, the biggest problem was that… they would not be able to survive until the later stages. The nurturing mode of the Zerg made the resources consumed by the School of Insects far exceed those of the other schools.
The so-called “late stage” was simply a beautiful idea.
In the icy steeple, there was an empty cultivation room.
The Ice Phoenix was among them, wearing an experimental robe.
In front of her, there were insect eggs.
These eggs were like ice crystals and were as big as hailstones, emitting a dense cold aura.
Everyone thought that Ice Phoenix was a Fifth-Circle Wizard from the School of Spiritualism.
Little did they know that she was the last descendant of the extinct wizard organization, the Calamity Steeple.
The Calamity Steeple was one of the few high-level wizard organizations in the history of the School of Insects.
However, it had already gone extinct ten thousand years ago. The reason for its extinction was the Tower Master of the Natural Calamity Steeple.
Calamity Wizard, Insett.
To find and nurture powerful Zergs, he stepped into the Dark Ancient Tower ignoring everyone’s advice… and never returned.
They would be left in the Dark Ancient Tower forever with the catastrophe wizards.
There were also the high-grade Zergs ranked seventh on the Zerg Ranking.
Heaven Crystal Dragon Ant!
This was one of the few Zergs that specialized in individual combat. It was extremely strong and invulnerable. Although it had the name “Dragon”, it was not a mixed-blood Dragon Clan. However, because of these mere ants, their strength was even more terrifying than sub-dragons!
They fed on mixed-blood Dragon Clans, so they were called: Dragon Ants!
The Calamity Wizard imitated the School of Spiritualism. He would use this Heaven Crystal Dragon Ant as his Primordial Spiritual Beast. Then, he placed it in the Spiritual Space and brought it into the Dark Ancient Tower while leaving the other Zergs in the Wizard World.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned.
In the end, the catastrophe wizard did not return from the Dark Ancient Tower.
Since then, the wizards in the steeple believed that the Tower Master was dead.
Without the primordial soul suppressing them, they all had ulterior motives. They divided up the resources of the steeple and the mutated eggs.
The remaining high-level organization also fell apart.
The Ice Phoenix’s ancestor was once a member of the Calamity Steeple.
Her ancestors obtained several high-grade and medium-grade mutant eggs.
However, as time passed, time changed. These Zergs were either dead or running.
Now, only the Ice Phoenix was left.
There was only a Zerg Illustrated Book and some Zerg cultivation and control knowledge.
As for the eggs, there was only one left.
The Ice Crystal Egg in front of her was one of them.
“Frost Dragon Centipede, high-grade Zerg, 32nd on the Zerg Ranking. Just like the Heaven Crystal Dragon Ant, it is also a Zerg that focuses on individual combat strength.
“If it’s nurtured to its full form, it should be comparable to a fourth-circle senior wizard.”
On the Zerg rankings that were circulating outside, was actually because of Insett, the Master of the School of Insects.
He studied the list of Zergs from ancient times, which had been passed down to this day.
There were hundreds of Zergs on the entire rankings.
After the 108th place were low-grade Zergs.
For example, the Red-Faced Sea Ghost Spider that Levi had obtained.
It was the best among the low-grade insects, close to the Middle-grade insects.
The 37th to 108th place were middle-grade insects.
