Fennel frowned and said, “It’s difficult to say. Among the forces in Cochly Mountain, it’s not that easy to deploy so many experts at once. Moreover, the other party's targets are you and Janike.” “You have no contact with Cochly Mountain, so it doesn’t make sense for so many people to come after you. Even if there were, it should only be those few.” “Which ones?” Philip asked. “First, the Lovelace family. They know you're here and want to kill you, but that doesn’t match up with the message Wynn left you earlier. I don’t think the Lovelace family wants to kill you but to use you to achieve their ulterior motives instead. “Second, the people from the Nonagon. You have a grudge against Cooper Berry, so his intent to kill you is greater. “Third…” Fennel did not continue but frowned. Philip’s face darkened and said, “Who’s the third?” Fennel said, “This is the last thing I want. Someone in Cochly Mountain wants you dead. If that’s the case, it means that someone in Cochly
Philip and the others looked over and found that most people in the training camp were disciples. They had arrogance and disdain written all over their faces. Philip also felt powerful energy fluctuations and the power of rules from them. The disciples of Cochly Mountain in this training camp were not simple. The murderous and fierce aura exuded from them seemed as if they had just experienced a bloody battle. The weakest person had the strength of the fourth zone. Philip and the others followed Owen inside. Seeing Owen, the disciples bowed slightly and greeted him. Owen merely nodded with his hands behind his back. He led Philip and the others inside. As they passed through the training grounds of the training camp, Owen introduced as he walked, “These are disciples on rotational duty at the stargate. All of them are brave and good at fighting, but as you can see, they’re unwilling to concede to anyone. I hope you guys can interact with them more in the future.” Phil
Philip shook his head helplessly, glanced at Fennel, and said, “What do you think?” Fennel shrugged and said, “They’re here for you. We’ll go to our rooms first.” After saying that, Fennel turned around and went into the dormitory with 17 and the others. Seeing their blatant disregard for them, the bald man scowled and shouted coldly, “Kid, you’re very cocky, huh? I asked you a question!” Philip looked at the man, raised his hand, clenched his fist, craned his neck, and said, “If you want to fight, just go ahead. I have other things to do.” “Damn it! You’re too arrogant!” “This is Cochly Mountain. How dare a newbie like you talk to Evan like this?” “Boys, let’s go! Let’s show him who’s in charge here!” With that said, these five people attacked Philip from five different directions! The bald man threw a punch with a flaming fist. He was a disciple with the fire attribute! The others had the ice attribute, the wind attribute, and the earth attribute respectively with
With that threat, the bald man ran away. Philip’s expression darkened. He glanced at the people watching the fun in the distance and shouted coldly, “Anyone else wants to try?” Those people snorted, turned around, and went on with their own business. Philip stood for a while before turning around and entering the dormitory. Fennel and the others were already resting on the beds, while 17 was polishing her scimitar. “How was it?” Fennel asked while lying on the bed with his head pillowed in his arms. Philip sat on his bed and said, “I tested them. They’re so-so.” “Who do you think sent them?” Fennel got up and asked. Philip thought for a while and said, “We just arrived and didn’t really run into anyone. Either Commander Greene wants to test our strength, or the group of people who tried to kill us earlier want to spread the rumors on purpose.” “Are you referring to Reynold?” Fennel asked with a frown. “Bingo.” Philip nodded, got up, and said, “Do you still remember
Janike spread her arms open, and her body suddenly glowed like white jade. The bright glow poured into the black stargate, which its end could not be seen. It was as if the stargate was a monster that devoured everything, constantly consuming the mysterious power of rules from Janike. This process continued for several hours. Janike became very weak, and her lips turned pale. Marquis Fulmore waved his hand, brought Janike away from the stargate, and said to the servant behind him, “Bring the guardian maiden to rest.” Marquis Fulmore and the others looked at the stargate that was finally calm and said, “Peace has been restored at last. A few days later and I’m afraid we wouldn’t even be able to restrain the stargate if we join forces.” Another marquis nodded and said with a frown, “The lord took Juno Yarrow to seal the stargate again back then. Why does the stargate still show such abnormal fluctuations?” Marquis Fulmore shook his head and said, “I don't know either. Maybe
The Death Canyon was marked on the map as the most dangerous and heavily guarded place. Heavily armed guards were stationed at the entrance of Death Canyon. Many high-level disciples also stood guard nearby. Philip and Fennel hid in the snowy woods on one side, looking into the darkness in the distance at the patrolling guards and the huge searchlights. Basically, no living person could break in. In the dark, the guards were chatting and smoking. Not even the cry of a bird could be heard, only the whistling cold wind. Philip glanced at Fennel and asked, “Do you think you can break in?” Fennel shrugged and said, “Almost impossible.” “Look, the ones with the giant axes are the warriors guarding Death Canyon. They look quite strong, probably disciples at the peak of the sixth zone. Once we fight with them, there’s sure to be a big commotion. It’ll be difficult to get in at that time.” Philip frowned and looked at the entrance of the Death Canyon where the four fat guys w
“Do you know that your appearance in Cochly Mountain has attracted the attention of many people?” Marquis Fulmore asked. Philip frowned and said, “I know.” Marquis Fulmore sighed and said, “I know what you're thinking. Your recklessness will ruin the overall plan. Cochly Mountain is not as simple as you think. The forces here are many and complicated, and everyone serves their master loyally. If you act impulsively, you’ll most likely offend some people behind them. When the time comes, I can’t stop them if they want to do anything to you.” Philip frowned and said, “Even a powerful half-step to the other shore like you are afraid of those people in the dark?” Marquis Fulmore turned around, glanced at Philip with a hint of admiration in the corner of his eyes, and said, “To many people, a half-step to the other shore can practically rule over a country single-handedly. But in Cochly Mountain, strength doesn’t mean everything. The scheming and chess game behind this, as well as t
His father knew of the reason? Philip was solemn as a bad premonition welled in him. This sudden turn of events had caught him off guard. They actually wanted to forcefully open the stargate and select talents to enter the other shore for this so-called training. “Marquis Fulmore, have you conducted similar training before?” Philip asked. Marquis Fulmore nodded and said, “Yes, but all ended in failure. None of the trainees who entered the other shore survived. However, we still persisted in doing so every time. Only by doing so can we understand the level of civilization and strength of that world and prepare ourselves better.” Hearing this, Philip frowned and asked, “My father and the others, have they never trained on the other shore before?” Marquis Fulmore shook his head and said, “No, but according to historical records, our predecessors have returned safely from the other shore before. Those supreme powerhouses have left a strong legacy in history, but they didn’t say
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“Wow, I feel so good as if I just had a massage.” Jeff praised Philip in his mind. After taking the pill, he recovered instantly. Even the ailments he had been suffering from in the past were healed. He was in such good shape that he could face Hogster with no problem. He even felt that he could resist Hogster’s attack this time. Philip nodded. Jeff was quite good. He had thought that Jeff was already defeated and would not even be able to move. However, Jeff forced himself to take out a pill and swallowed it. “He’s quite good at persevering and has a bright future. You can consider grooming him,” Philip said to Jamie. Jamie was surprised to hear such a high assessment from Philip. Jamie attached great importance to Philip's suggestion. Since Philip said so, he would develop Jeff properly. “Aren’t you very full of yourself? Keep going.” Jeff rushed forward and started beating Hogster up. Hogster was already dying and could not put up a fight at all. “Stop!” Hogste
The Hexa Guild had lost the earlier match, so Hogster was upset about it. Their guild should be undefeatable. They should have made a name for themselves by now, but everything was ruined. Although Hogster did not know why the Celestial Palace was so powerful, he had a feeling that they were cheating. “I’m the pride of the Hexa Guild while you’re just an ordinary member. Don't even think about resisting me,” Hogster said calmly, clearly looking down on Jeff. Of course, Jeff was not to be outdone. “My favorite hobby is to beat someone while they're down. Your guild's reputation is so bad anyway. Why bother holding on to it?” His remark struck the Hexa Guild’s sore spot, and all the members scowled at him. Indeed, the Hexa Guild had a very bad reputation. They could only recruit ordinary people who could not join other guilds but yearned to practice. “Hehe, cut the crap. We’ll know the outcome after a fight!” After saying this, Hogster charged at Jeff with a weapon in han
It would do the Hexa Guild no good to keep Vanna alive, so they would not allow it to happen. Although the members of the Hexa Guild were angry, they quickly cheered up. There would be several matches with the Celestial Palace to go. They could not lose their fighting spirit because of this trivial matter. “Let’s see how powerful the Celestial Palace is. I refuse to believe that we’re no match for them.” Hogster decided to take the stage because the upcoming opponent was just an ordinary member of the Celestial Palace. They were not very strong. In his opinion, an ordinary member could not be very strong. It would be easy to win this match, and it would save him a lot of trouble too. It would be bad if he faced a dark horse like the previous match. The hooded man saw the performance of the Celestial Palace and was surprised by their extraordinary strength. However, he did not notice anything unusual. He simply thought that it was their usual strength. Since they were so str
“This is interesting.” The hooded man glanced at the people discussing this matter and felt expectant. He could not wait to meet Philip. On the other hand, Philip was watching the competition and had no idea what was going on. “Oh, I see, you’re the young lady of the Celestial Palace. I thought you were very powerful, but this is all there is to you.” Vanna’s opponent was an ugly woman who was very upset with her beautiful appearance. Vanna looked at her mockingly. “The outcome has yet to be determined. I don’t think you’re any better either.” After saying this, Vanna looked at the other party, waiting for her to make the first move. The ugly woman was furious at Vanna’s provocation. “Very well. Since you don’t know what’s good for you, let me show you what I’m capable of!” After saying this, she attacked Vanna as if she were ready to get rid of her. She had received an order from the guild leader to deal with Vanna properly. The Hexa Guild had initially planned to qu
