Gazing at the Nightmare Stone in his palm.
Levi returned to the Nightmare World in a single thought.
If one wishes to refine such an object, naturally, doing it here is most convenient.
After some thought, he summoned the Netherworld Ancestor.
"You found the Nightmare Stone?"
Levi replied:
"Yes."
The Netherworld Ancestor felt a bit surprised, genuinely praising:
"Kars is indeed another of Sauron’s fallback plans."
Immediately feeling a bit annoyed:
"This guy, really now, doesn’t even tell us anything!"
Nora still doesn’t know which other fallback plans Sauron hasn’t used yet.
It’s like opening a blind box, too thrilling.
The Netherworld Ancestor asked:
"How will this item be distributed?"
Levi replied:
"Half to Nora, half to the Underworld, how about that?"
Nora reaching today’s achievements couldn’t have happened without the help from the Underworld; killing the Nightmare Will relied mainly on the power of the Mother River. Yet, bringing it back was also thanks to Nora’s efforts. Based on fairness, splitting it is best, avoiding discord.
Levi himself wasn’t very concerned about this.
Having it is great; without it, he will just cultivate step by step.
He mainly wanted to give some to Fingal, to let it ascend to supremacy as soon as possible, so it can fully grasp the Nightmare World and accelerate Nora’s development.
As for keeping it all for himself,
Levi had never considered it.
First, it wouldn’t be ethical; second, he couldn’t hide it from the Mother River.
If he did so, the Underworld would at least be estranged from Nora and foster ulterior motives. At worst, it would break with Nora, even turning against them, causing all current foundations to be obliterated.
The Netherworld Ancestor chuckled and said:
"Alright, if you trust me, I’ll give this to the Mother River and let it cut it with supreme power. I think you’ll find it hard to break it open yourself."
Levi handed it to the Netherworld Ancestor.
"Then I’ll leave it to you."
He already tried; indeed, it couldn’t be severed.
With the Nightmare Stone in hand, the Netherworld Ancestor went to the Underworld, smiling.
"Nora is indeed a partner worth entrusting."
...
Five years later, Nora Calendar 4455.
In Ancient Banyan Fairyland, Levi suddenly laughed aloud.
"Hahaha, it’s done—the third professional spell!"
He simulated for hundreds of years in the [Multi-Dimensional Space] demiplane, comprehending the profound meaning of time and space to a realm few Legendary Wizards ever reach.
Perhaps only Sauron was stronger.
In a single thought, a pure white force field emerged around him like a nebula, seemingly containing innumerable worlds, each grain of dust being a world.
The nebula rotated without pattern; at times worlds were born, at times worlds perished. Space-time held no meaning here; it was a land of disorder.
Much like the boundary of the universe.
Levi opened the proficiency panel.
Levi————————
Infinite Land: Level 22...
"Chaos Ruins," "Hand of the Universe," "Infinite Land"... In attack, defense, and control alike, my Legendary Profession spell system is complete.
Other legendary spells can serve as supplements."
He arrived in the Nightmare World.
Just then, the Netherworld Ancestor appeared.
"Levi, the division is done."
Levi took a pile of Nightmare Stone Fragments, feeling the abundant Nightmare Power, as the Nightmare Emperor Dragon Breathing Technique inside him operated autonomously, proficiency surging upwards,
