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
So that was the case. Philip nodded silently. Marquis Fulmore returned the token to Philip and said gravely, “Although Emperor Kai’s Token isn’t as good as the Human Emperor’s Token, to a certain degree, its usage is the same. The splendor of the First Emperor still commands awe. Even someone like Emperor Kai wouldn’t dare to call himself the Human Emperor, so you can imagine what a supreme presence it is. Kid, I never expect that you’d be acknowledged by the Human Emperor as his successor. Do your best. This world will eventually be handed over to the younger generation as you.” While saying that, Marquis Fulmore patted Philip on his shoulder, putting all his hopes and ambition on him. The world belonged to the younger generation, after all. Old people like them could only do their best to clear the obstacles for these young people of the future. Philip nodded and said, “Thanks for your clarification, Marquis Fulmore.” Marquis Fulmore smiled and said, “Have a good rest. I’ll
“Kid, you’re courting death!” Brody was furious and threw a punch at Philip’s head! The surrounding onlookers snickered coldly. “Hehe, this kid is dead. How dare he mess with that bad-tempered Brody?” “I heard that he defeated Reynold. I was wondering if it was true. We can see it now.” “I call bullsh*t. Just look at his small size. I bet he can’t even beat Brody.” Boom! An explosion suddenly resounded throughout the training camp! Just when everyone thought that Brody would smash Philip’s head with a punch, Philip raised his fist lightly and threw a punch too. Brody’s fist was smashed to pieces in an instant. His skin was ripped apart, and he clutched his bloody right fist. He staggered back, glared at Philip viciously, and said, “H-How dare you fight back?” Many people were shocked at this scene. “Whoa, he has some moves. He blasted Brody’s fist with one punch.” “Interesting. This kid isn’t that weak. It looks like Reynold’s defeat wasn’t a lie, after all.”
It could be considered returning the favor. Jamie shook his head helplessly. He knew Philip’s kind intentions, but this matter was not so simple. “I know that your wine can improve someone’s strength, but it’s no help to us right now!” The overall strength of the Hexa Guild had increased so much that it went beyond anyone’s comprehension. Carlos turned up at this time. He wanted to talk to Philip about this matter, but Jamie beat him to it. “My friends just told me that the Hexa Guild is hellbent on dealing with everyone, not only us. Anyone up against them will be killed. They must be insane to face any guilds without fear!” Philip was intrigued. They could not be so confident for no reason. They must have encountered an opportunity. “Maybe they encountered an opportunity. I can't be sure about this, but I can at least provide you something to ensure that nothing happens to your people.” After saying this, Philip handed Jamie some pills. Philip was very confident about
It was very suspicious that a bunch of losers became so strong all of a sudden. “Philip, don’t you think something is wrong? I have a feeling that the Hexa Guild did something,” Jamie asked bluntly with mixed feelings about it. There was clearly something wrong with the Hexa Guild. Philip nodded. He had been watching the competition carefully. He could see that these people’s strength had just been improved, and their foundation was not very stable. “Don't think too much. There is a problem with them, and it’s not small either. From the looks of it, they must've taken something that can quickly improve their strength. However, their skills and combat experience can't keep up, so they can only barely manage it.” Philip shook his head helplessly. At this rate, even the members of the Celestial Palace would suffer. Moreover, the Hexa Guild held a big grudge against the Celestial Palace. Once they met, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. “What should we do? All th
“You should prepare for the competition.” Philip turned and left after saying that. Everyone felt angry at his domineering appearance. Some people had ideas about Philip. “Which guild does Philip belong to?” a man with a sinister face asked angrily. He wanted to know which guild Philip belonged to so that he could go all out to target Philip's guild. Others shook their heads. No one knew much about Philip. At this time, a spy from the Hexa Guild stepped forward. He looked at the man flatteringly and provided all the information he knew. “Philip doesn't belong to any guild, but he’s an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace!” The fact that Philip became an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace had not been made public. Only people keeping a close eye on the Celestial Palace knew about it. The Hexa Guild had always wanted to deal with the Celestial Palace, so they had been keeping a close eye on the latter. They knew all the minor details. The man scowled as if he did
“I can explore the secret realm on your behalf, but why do you think she’d appear there?” Although Philip could not figure it out, maybe the old monk had his reason for saying that. “I’ll explore the secret realm after the guild competition is over. If I can find the woman you’re looking for, I’ll think of a way.” In fact, Philip would rather take the old monk with him. He did not know what the woman looked like, so it was better for the old monk to do it himself. “Sure!” The old monk smiled brightly, surprised that Philip would agree so decisively. The secret realm was full of dangers. He knew that he should not let others take risks for him, but Philip did not ask any questions and even agreed to his request without any hesitation. “I’ll think about it and see if I can find a way to bring you in,” Philip said off-handedly. He still preferred to bring the old monk with him. The old monk was dumbfounded and thought he had heard it wrongly. “What?” The old monk gaped at
“The truth is that I have a favor to ask of you, but I’m afraid of overstepping the line, so…” The old monk knew that his action was inappropriate, so he was conflicted and wondered how he should ask for Philip’s help. Philip was interested upon hearing that the old monk needed a favor. He wanted to know what stumped him. With his strength and status, the old monk should be omnipotent. “Feel free to speak your mind. If I can handle it, I don’t mind lending a helping hand.” Philip would not help for no reason. If the other party was willing to pay the price, he would not refuse. The old monk was excited to hear Philip’s agreement. “I have the location of a secret realm. I tried to enter it once, but the secret realm told me that I couldn’t enter it,” the old monk said with regret. “There should be a lot of good things in this secret realm, so I’m very disappointed that I can't enter and explore it. I was told that only people from other worlds could enter this secret realm.
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
