The Starfall Continent was divided into nine territories excluding the underground level and sea area. The white tiger royal family territory was located in the east of the Starfall Continent, and it was divided into 18 states with numerous countries and forces in each state. At this time, Philip and Licht were in the state of Guan, the smallest state among the 18 states of the white tiger royal family territory. Even so, it was very prosperous with highly-advanced technology everywhere. Philip and Licht were in Trifecta City in the northern part of central Guan. The Starfall Continent was extremely vast, and the huge population base produced countless strong talents, but they chose to go to bigger cities. Thus, the strongest people in Trifecta City were only level one of the pseudo holy tier. This was the information Verdant provided to Philip. After Philip and Licht arrived in Trifecta City, they headed to the place mentioned by Verdant, which was the intel exchange point
The woman said respectfully, “I’m Lilac, the chief of Trifecta City's intel division. May I know your names?” The corners of Philip's mouth twitched as he glanced at Lilac. Not to mention the others, even Philip was shocked to find that the chief of intel was actually the receptionist! Licht was dumbfounded as he looked at Lilac in front of him. Seeing the expressions of the two, Lilac pursed her lips and said, “This is Chief Verdant’s order. He said all the managers of the intel division should either hide behind the scenes or appear on the frontline. I prefer the crowd, so I chose to stay on the frontline.” Philip sighed and said, “Verdant is a genius.” Philip had struck the jackpot by recruiting Verdant! Lilac said, “Chief Verdant has told me the purpose of your visit. Please come with me.” Philip nodded, and they walked into a small room on the side. Lilac tapped one of the bricks, and the wall in front of them rose soundlessly. A huge room with rows of shelves st
This newly emerged force caught Arlo's attention. The white tiger royal family territory was quite stable now, and it was not easy for any force to enter this place. Small forces were not that much of a problem, but anything that could be presented to Arlo must not be that simple. After all, Arlo's identity was not just the patriarch of the Hood family! “I think I need to discuss this with the higher authorities,” Arlo muttered under his breath. Meanwhile, two leisurely figures appeared outside the gates of the Hood family's residence. The Hood family's guards immediately stood at attention and asked, “Who’s there?” As soon as they said that, two powerful surges of energy blasted at them. Among the two guards, the stronger one was merely six stars, while Philip and Licht were both nine stars, so they killed the guards easily. “Is it really okay for us to act so arrogantly?” Licht rubbed his nose and glanced at Philip. Philip shrugged and said, “Why not? We’ve done
After seeing the scene, those people realized that someone was messing with the Hood family. They looked at Philip and Licht while smiling in disdain. “Two people at nine stars dare to mess with the Hood family. Do they really think the Hood family is a pushover?” “I think so too. Although the Hood family is declining with only one pseudo holy tier left, he’s not someone even a freak at the peak of nine stars dares to mess with.” “You got that right. The pseudo holy tier is completely different from ordinary nine-star practitioners. One has mastered the path order, while the other the laws. A path order can crush the laws at any time.” “Ignorance is bliss.” Various comments could be heard, but no one was optimistic about Philip and Licht. They were full of mockery instead. Philip shrugged at those comments and turned to Licht. Licht said calmly, “Philip, I can’t handle the pseudo holy tier, so I'll leave him to you. Let me take care of the rest!” With that said, Licht
Arlo fell from the sky and attacked Philip fiercely. A golden light fell like a shooting star with Arlo. The sharp vibe of metal split the sky. Cracks appeared in the surroundings and sent energy surging. Even Licht was affected as he attacked other members of the Hood family. Philip raised his eyebrows at this sight. It was his first time fighting a pseudo holy being. As the onlookers mentioned, the pseudo holy tier was completely different from nine stars. Anyone who comprehended a path order could be called a pseudo holy being. The laws could never be a match against a pseudo holy being. Some wise people among the pseudo holy tier could transform the path order into an energy field, which they would wield absolute control over. Everyone who entered their energy field would be weakened, which was one of the reasons why a nine-star practitioner found it difficult to fight against the pseudo holy tier. Philip closed his eyes and carefully sensed the power of the pat
The smiles on everyone’s faces grew bigger. Even Arlo seemed upset. He probably thought that a loser like Philip was not worthy for him to use a special art. Although it was just a small special art, Arlo still felt indignant about it. Meanwhile, Philip sighed and looked at Arlo. “I already told you that you only have one chance to attack me. Why didn't you cherish it?” Philip's eyes were full of regret. The stronger the special art, the stronger the elements and power contained in it. Although Philip could comprehend something from a small special art, it was not much. However, Philip was a man of his word. Since the other party had made his move, Philip would not give him another chance. The next moment, a purple imprint slowly appeared on Philip's forehead. It was a roaring chimera. After the imprint appeared, the lightning elements in the sky quickly gathered and formed a huge energy field around Philip. Lightning flashed in the energy field, but wisps of mist
The wall formed by Arlo's laws was violently blasted away by Philip, and the power of laws came to a halt. Philip punched Arlo and sent him flying away. He fell to the ground in the distance. He spat another mouthful of blood, and his aura immediately weakened. He felt extremely tired, but he still looked at Philip angrily. Everyone was dumbfounded at the scene and thought it was simply surreal. A young man who they thought would be killed easily destroyed Arlo's defense and even attacked him twice, leaving Arlo powerless to fight back! “A-are my eyes playing tricks on me?” someone gulped and muttered. “Even an average practitioner at level three of the pseudo holy tier can hardly deal with this!” “Is this his trump card?” “I think the Hood family will be wiped out today.” Arlo ignored those comments and stared at Philip in front of him. He coughed and spat another mouthful of blood again. Meanwhile, no one paid attention to Licht’s side, but there was a strong ener
“You don’t need to know how I found out. If you have a trump card, you can use it now. If you don’t, I’ll send you on your way.” Before Arlo could speak, a weather-beaten voice rang out from a distance. It was a voice that told many stories. “Little one, have mercy.” Philip looked in the direction of the voice, his gaze sharp and his brows slightly furrowed. He saw a dark alley. A tapping sound and light footsteps came from that direction. Everyone followed suit and saw an old man with a cane slowly walking out of the alley. The old man had a white beard, white hair, and age spots all over his face. He was very thin, looking as if a gust of wind could blow him away. After the old man walked out of the alley, he looked up at Philip in the sky and smiled kindly. “Little one, I wonder if you can spare Arlo’s life on my account?” Philip smiled and said, “Sir, may I know why you want to speak up for Arlo? Strictly speaking, he’s my enemy. It doesn’t seem right to let the t
“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
