“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.”
Philip chuckled and said, “It’s okay. Of course, it’d be better if fewer people turn up to test my strength.” Haha. Owen laughed and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, you’re quite humorous. However, too many people want to test you because they see you as a thorn in their sides or maybe highly sought after.” Philip frowned in confusion and asked, “What do you mean by that?” Owen turned around to look at the defenses of Cochly Mountain displayed on the big electronic screen and said, “Here, you won’t find any absolute friends, only absolute interests. Your arrival here has ruined some people’s plans, so you’ll be seen as a thorn in their sides. Of course, many people also welcome your arrival because they have their own objectives too, and you have what they want.” Philip’s eyes were cold, and he asked suddenly, “Then which side do you belong to? Do you find me a thorn in the side or otherwise?” The atmosphere suddenly tensed. Owen’s eyes flickered as he stared at Philip. He
When he saw these human studies, Philip immediately stood on guard. When it came to human body research, the Lovelace family had the most extensive research and greatest achievements in the world today. Now that there was also such a research institution in Cochly Mountain, Philip had to be cautious! “Are you from the Lovelace family?” Philip frowned and asked Owen. Owen smiled and said, “No, but this place has some connections with the Lovelace family. This is a secret base of the Lovelace family, but we discovered it and kept it to continue their research.” Hearing this, Philip frowned, looked at the researchers, and asked, “Human research isn’t allowed. Why are you continuing the sins of the Lovelace family?” Owen seemed to have anticipated this. He smiled and said, “Young Patriarch Clarke, don’t be nervous. We took over the research in this place long ago, and it doesn’t involve any morality issues. Everyone here is a volunteer, and the content of the research is also b
He took the document and pointed it out to Philip. He said, “Look at this data. It’s almost 99.9% a perfect match, simply the apple of God’s eye. Although I didn't know who she was at first, I knew that the Lovelace family would put a lot of effort into her and shift all the focus to the owner of this golden blood. She’s the hope that the Lovelace family has been waiting for.” Hearing this, the chill in Philip's eyes was already very obvious. Sure enough, the Lovelace family was eyeing Wynn’s golden blood! “Mr. Skater, do you know what the Lovelace family will do?” Philip asked. The old man shook his head and said, “I've been kicked out of that research project. I don't know what they want to do, but I can be sure that even if they succeed, the golden blood will give them a lot of problems because they didn't pay attention to the drawbacks of the golden blood that I found in the beginning. This is their biggest mistake!” “What drawbacks?” “Once the power of the golden blood
Hearing that, Philip scowled, and a chill flashed in his eyes! Violating the rules of Cochly Mountain… What a harsh accusation. This was directly targeted at them! “Where is he?” Philip asked coldly. The guard said, “At the training grounds in the west district.” Philip turned around and walked toward the training grounds in the west district with a chill raging all over his body. At this moment, an open snow field in the west district was full of training equipment. The area was surrounded by a protective wall with a high-voltage wire mesh. Dozens of battle tanks were parked around, and several guards armed with guns patrolled. Many people crowded the training grounds. Idle guards and disciples were watching the fun. In the middle of the field, there was a huge arena where two people were facing each other at this moment. It was Fennel and a shirtless burly man wearing white combat pants. He stretched out his hand, hooked his finger at Fennel, and said provocatively,
“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
The Hexa Guild also claimed that they would kill anyone from the Celestial Palace. Although upset, no one dared to say anything in the face of the other party’s strength. It would be embarrassing if they could not live up to their claims if they retorted now. Moreover, the battle was a matter of life and death. Everyone was risking their lives. The Celestial Palace had the confidence to face the Hexa Guild now. They believed that they could turn the situation around with their strength or at least show them what they could do. There would be a battle between the two parties in the afternoon, which was the best time to show off their strength. The young lady of the Celestial Palace would be the one contending. After improving her strength, Vanna was full of confidence and vowed to give her opponent a fatal blow or at least let them know how powerful she was. Ronan was nervous. He was not worried about his wife but worried that the Hexa Guild would take things too far. Those
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
