Every royal-level creature has its own significance.
Freya did not understand what the fragmented memories appearing in the inheritance meant, but the vast, immense green wetlands were deeply imprinted in her mind.
A sense of tranquility and harmony slowly spread within her heart.
"And what about that empty, enormous rift and the various purple-black creatures in the void?"
Freya frowned slightly, as she vaguely felt that she seemed to be touching upon some unknown history of the Ancient Wizarding World.
"I remember that in most historical records, the reason for the resurgence of Human Wizards was due to their rebellion against the rule of Ancient Beasts. However, it seems there might be other reasons now—perhaps an invasion by external creatures?"
Modern Wizard Organizations, to varying degrees, have conducted research and exploration into other worlds.
Some Wizard Organizations even arrange their bases in other worlds for convenience in research.
This special 'arrangement' can be equated to an act of invasion in a certain sense.
However, this kind of invasion is limited to the Lower World; entry into the Higher World is still done peacefully.
The research and exploration of the Higher World have actually brought progress and influence to the Wizarding World.
In fact, some creatures in the Wizarding World originated from other worlds.
From those fragmented memories, it seemed that the enormous rift in the sky represented an invasion of the Wizarding World by other species.
Thinking of this, Freya shook her head slightly.
"Never mind. Even if it is an invasion, it doesn't concern me much. I should focus on testing the Ancient Inheritance first."
The legacy of the Ancient Wizard is to transform oneself into Ancient Beasts in order to gain powerful strength.
At this moment, she has already absorbed the Bloodline of the King Cobra, and the initial transformation has been completed. The next step is to allow the Bloodline of the King Cobra to continue altering her entire body, pushing herself closer to the level of the King Cobra by absorbing the Bloodline powers of other creatures.
"According to the King Cobra Legacy, if one reaches a certain level, they can directly manifest in the form of the King Cobra. This form is divided into primary and secondary stages, and each form will grant abilities equal to those of the King Cobra."
Freya silently estimated in her mind; she felt that the power of the first form was actually higher than that of a Fourth-Level Dawn Wizard, while the second form would manifest as the true body of the King Cobra.
The colossal serpent, stretching over a thousand meters, exceeded all of Freya's understanding.
"The Storm Leviathan is considered a massive existence at the Sixth Level among wizards. According to Shirley, since the Storm Leviathan has lost its purpose for existence, its power must have diminished. However, if there truly exists a king-level creature with its own mission, that kind of level..."
Just thinking about it made Freya feel a shiver in her soul.
However, reaching that level is not so simple.
It requires a vast amount of Bloodline power; even just the Bloodline of the King Cobra requires a long time for transformation.
This is not like the Elemental Quantification of Modern Wizards, which can be achieved by combining mental power with elemental rituals at an appropriate level.
Standing still and feeling the changes in her body, a hint of green light appeared in Freya's azure eyes, resembling those of the King Cobra.
"Let's test out the abilities gained from this initial transformation. First one!"
After a pause, a hazy and distorted Force Field emerged around her. The surface of the lake beneath her feet rippled with delicate waves.
Tiny water droplets seemed to be drawn by this Force Field, hovering beneath Freya's feet.
However, this state only lasted for a few seconds before the droplets fell again. Then, from the calm lake surface, slender Red Threads began to emerge.
And it flew towards Freya's right hand. The smell of blood in her hand became overwhelmingly intense.
Freya watched the absorption of this blood, revealing a contemplative expression.
This ability is an enhanced version of King Cobra's original absorption technique, which automatically transforms into an absorption aura after merging with the Royal Serpent Bloodline. It consumes energy from mental power and converts it into Bloodline strength.
"Once the aura is activated, as long as blood is absorbed, the user enters a high-speed recovery state. As long as the damage is not fatal, recovery can occur within five seconds, providing a certain enhancement to both physical and mental strength. Moreover, the power of this aura is determined by the purity of one's Bloodline. If it reaches the first form, then this aura will be permanently fixed and will not consume any energy, becoming as instinctive as breathing or eating. How impressive."
This ability is essentially a large-scale war-type sorcery; Freya even felt that once she activated the aura, she would be an invincible presence on the battlefield.
Additionally, this aura can control its range; currently, it can extend up to a diameter of one hundred meters centered around her, with the closest point remaining in her right hand.
However, based on Freya's current strength after just receiving the Royal Serpent Bloodline, the effects of this aura are only applicable to weaker animals and are somewhat ineffective against ordinary humans.
Of course, this situation will improve as Freya's own Bloodline purity and concentration increase.
As she slowly dissipated the aura effect around her, Freya glanced at the now silent lake.
Previously, due to nurturing Mud Python, almost all creatures here had been preyed upon by Mud Python, leaving only some types of fish alive. But now, with Freya's aura activated, this lake showed no signs of life whatsoever.
Not paying attention to the state of the lake, Freya slightly closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she slowly extended her hands towards the surface of the lake.
"Next is the second instinctive gift."
The calm lake water began to part under an unknown force, and strands of white mist rose from it, swirling around her.
At the same time, Freya felt her body becoming lighter as it was enveloped by this vapor, as if she were about to lift off from the ground.
"Is vapor control similar to Levitation Spell and flying techniques?"
The King Cobra possesses the ability to fly. Although its body is covered with transparent wing membranes, it is this ability that allows the King Cobra to soar freely in the sky.
However, this ability is somewhat redundant for Freya.
She specializes in Wind Element magic, and there are many other similar spells that can lighten her weight for flight.
In comparison to the first innate ability, this second one leaves Freya feeling a bit disappointed.
Fortunately, this innate ability does not consume mental energy but rather draws from her Bloodline power.
After reaching the first form, in addition to the ability to fly, she also gains control over atmospheric changes; the title "Rain God" comes from this ability.
Understanding this capability, Freya quickly activated her third innate ability.
Originally enveloped in White Mist, she gradually transformed into a semi-transparent state, and before long, she completely vanished from her original position.
"Oh? Is it a state change?"
Freya's voice echoed from where she had been standing.
Although it resembles an invisibility ability, once Freya entered this state, she could distinctly feel her perception range greatly expand, as if the water droplets around her had become part of her body.
Moreover, she could even attempt to control the mist summoned by her second ability to form specific shapes.
Vaguely, Freya sensed that combining her second and third abilities created a complete form of power.
With a gentle leap, controlling the moisture around her, her body swiftly ascended into the air like an ordinary gray rain cloud.
The lake beneath her grew smaller in her view, followed by the nearby estate, and then intersecting yellow roads and various buildings.
Everything on the ground slowly shrank in the height of Freya.
Raising her head slightly, the distant White Tower was completely exposed to view, and through its black windows, shadows of moving figures could be faintly seen.
On the wide road below, several red carriages were slowly moving, completely unaware of Freya hovering in the air.
"Combining the Hidden Secret Art with these two abilities can allow me to enter a completely invisible state. I can almost sense the height, so let's test my maximum speed."
Controlling the white mist around her, she lowered her body and began to accelerate.
A white cloud was moving at an incredible speed in the azure sky, trailing a long cloud tail behind it. The speed was extremely fast yet strangely unusual.
A patrolling Crimson Giant Eagle in the sky had a Red-Robed Wizard on its back who frowned upon seeing the strange cloud.
"What the hell is that!?"
After pondering for a moment, he patted the giant eagle beneath him. Then he chased after it at an even faster speed.
The Crimson Giant Eagle was a Demonized Creature cultivated through special methods, possessing strength comparable to that of an Official Wizard. Its speed was not much different from that of the falcons from Sky City.
Moreover, with the acceleration spell cast by the Red-Robed Wizard, they quickly caught up to the white cloud transformed by Freya.
Tracking this strange cloud, the Red-Robed Wizard's gaze sharpened slightly, revealing a hint of complexity.
"There's no sign of life at all; interesting." After thinking for a moment, he took out a white coin-like object from behind him. "Let's see what you really are!"
The scenery below rushed by quickly. Just as Freya felt she had grasped her specific limit data, she suddenly sensed a strong aura of danger surging from behind her.
Without having time to think, she immediately controlled her body to fly sideways.
"Swish!"
A silver flash suddenly flew past her, and the violent airflow left a deep twisted mark in the air.
"Such a level of sorcery," Freya said, looking at the flash that had just passed by with a hint of fear. She turned her head and revealed an understanding expression. "It's a member of the Guardian patrol."
The instinctive test almost made her forget her surroundings; it was not surprising that flying recklessly in this area would attract the Guard Wizard.
However, with Freya's Secret Art and the abilities of the King Cobra, if she hadn't actively revealed herself, this Red-Robed Wizard clearly wouldn't have noticed her presence.
So now she was considering how to escape from under this guy's nose.
'The flying speed has been tested; it's faster than simple flight spells but still can't surpass a specially enhanced Demonized Creature.'
As Freya contemplated how to leave, the Red-Robed Wizard pulled out five white coins again, a faint killing intent spreading in his eyes.
"To think there's an evasion action; it seems you are indeed a creature! Daring to enter my Blood Eagle Territory! Seeking death!"
As he spoke, he flicked his fingers.
"Bang!!!"
With a thunderous explosion, the moment the five coins disappeared, five silver flashes shot toward Freya from five directions simultaneously.
After enhancing his shooting spell, the Red-Robed Wizard took out a red chain from behind him, murmuring as he threw it along with the coins.
"Hmph! Is this the level of a Second-Level Wizard?"
A glimmer of Azure Symbol flashed in her eyes. Freya waved her hands, and an invisible Azure Wind Flow appeared out of thin air in front of her.
"Swish!"
Five clear large holes appeared in the white cloud she was in.
However, because Freya had altered the trajectory of the metal coins with her wind power, she was not harmed. But when she saw the chains behind her, her expression suddenly stiffened.
The red chains in the air possessed a formidable splitting ability, transforming into a massive red net large enough to block out the sun just before reaching Freya.
A huge shadow loomed over Freya.
The center of the net crackled with red electricity, and Freya estimated that an ordinary wizard caught within it would likely be turned to charcoal in an instant.
This kind of electric red net would easily overwhelm the defenses of an Empowerment Spell.
However, that was only effective against ordinary wizards.
As she rapidly retreated, the Azure Symbol Array in Freya's eyes slowly faded, transforming into Azure's Slit Pupils.
"Well then, it's just the right time to experiment with ancient witchcraft from my heritage."
She extended her right hand, opening her palm as a vein-like Azure substance spread across her entire arm.
Shaking her hand at the vast red net, Freya suddenly grasped forcefully.
"Crack!"
A massive Azure vortex erupted before her, followed by a gigantic green Snake Head emerging from the vortex, twisting its body as it lunged toward the red net.
This ancient witchcraft had been used once against Buckley, back when Freya had not yet acquired the Bloodline of the King Cobra. Even powered solely by mental strength, it rivaled a Second-Grade Peak spell.
Now, the giant serpent composed entirely of pure energy has doubled in size.
The entire body of the serpent appears almost tangible, with even the patterns of its scales clearly visible.
In comparison to this massive size, the red net looks like an ordinary fist and handkerchief.
Faced with such a colossal creature, the Red-Robed Wizard was clearly stunned.
"What kind of creature is this!?"
Boom!!!
With a muffled sound, the giant serpent crashed into the red net, sending red sparks flying and creating a series of loud crackling noises.
The shadow that was about to spread before Freya quickly retreated under this immense force.
Glancing at the temporarily dazed Red-Robed Wizard, Freya retracted her right hand without looking back at the scene behind her and quickly turned to leave. (To be continued...)
P.S.: Thank you to the readers who pointed out the error regarding the level of Storm Behemoth. I apologize for the oversight last night.
