The members of the Nyx Guild were angry when they realized they had met a tough opponent this time. “Damn it, these people are not our comrades from another evil cult at all. That guy’s technique can oppress us!” Cain roared angrily. He knew he would only end up dead if he wasted any more time here. He had to escape! Before Philip’s second move landed, he grabbed the person next to him and shoved him toward Philip. Philip slashed out and rendered that person into a pile of ashes. “Stop him!” Cain used his people to stop Philip’s attack. He took out a charm from his pocket and activated it with his blood. The next second, he disappeared in front of everyone. Before the members of the Nyx Guild realized what was going on, Philip had defeated them. Philip was not surprised to see Cain leaving in a panic. Killing them was too easy for him. His goal was not to kill these minions. Instead, he wanted to attract all the people from this guild and catch them in one fel
The best way to avoid future retaliation was to get rid of everyone. Philip's thinking was always so simple and crude. In his opinion, it was not too difficult to deal with them, but he had to watch out for their underhanded tricks. “I feel so happy here that I don’t want to return to my guild anymore,” Delia grumbled with anticipation. Philip smiled helplessly. Delia had to return to her guild. She was the young leader of the Smith Guild. How could Philip keep this talented girl here for no reason? With the protection of Philip and the others, the children did not pay any attention to what just happened. They soaked in the potion baths and gradually relaxed. To Philip's surprise, the twin siblings were the strongest among them. They did not feel much pain, and their potion turned clear the fastest. Philip was very surprised by their talents and decided to groom them properly. Simply based on their good personalities alone, Philip would never treat them badly. … Mea
Shawn noticed everyone’s dissatisfaction and finally decided to use the most extreme method to solve this problem. “Don't worry, everyone. I’ll contact someone from the reclusive faction to avenge us. Leave this to me. I’ll handle it perfectly,” Shawn said smugly, confident that he could take care of Philip. “Since you have a way to resolve it, we’ll leave it to you. I hope you can restore the guild's reputation as soon as possible and stop those arrogant guys from getting their way,” Joseph said loftily, very unhappy with Shawn. He would take this opportunity to sow discord between other elders and the leader. After dealing with Shawn, his status would rise quickly. Taking the position of guild leader would not be a problem. Shawn nodded. He knew exactly what Joseph was thinking. “Don’t worry, Great Elder Joseph, I won't let you down,” Shawn said through gritted teeth. He turned around and returned to his room without wasting any more time with these people. He had to
The other party spoke nonchalantly without regarding Philip as a difficult opponent. Shawn told him everything he knew about Philip, and the black figure vanished after that. As the energy fluctuations dissipated into thin air, Shawn relaxed. The few minutes of conversation were enough to fill him with fear. He wondered how the other party became so powerful. Since he had received the promise from the reclusive faction, he believed he could make a comeback with the Oncidium Guild soon. Shawn felt a little nervous as he stared at the crack that just appeared on the jade token. He recalled how he met the other party. The Oncidium Guild was not very powerful back then and was in a state of stagnation. Just when he thought there was no hope left, he saw an old man in plain clothes walking past his door. The old man said that he had a good impression of Shawn and wanted to give him a technique, which could help him take over other factions that were about to close down.
Philip did not ask Montel to make a prediction for him, but the senior members of the Zucker family were doing it for him at this time. Their existence was to serve the descendants of the Clarke family. Other than completing some daily duties, their most important task was to make predictions for Philip and pay attention to every movement in his life. Therefore, the Zucker family had to be very strong to prevent any backlash. “Patriarch, based on my prediction, I think something is wrong.” An old man with gray hair frowned. He was someone with stronger fortune-telling abilities in the Zucker family. The others also looked at their prediction results with troubled expressions. “There's something wrong with this. This prediction points to someone from a reclusive family or faction. Are those old freaks making a comeback?” The Zucker family was puzzled and nervous. The secular practice world usually did not interact with the reclusive world. The reclusive faction was ver
“Dad, why didn’t you contact me through the software like you usually do? Is there an emergency?” Montel could not figure out why his father would call him. Did he miss him so much? His father chastised Montel before he finished talking, “Have you forgotten all about your fortune-telling abilities already? I can tell at a glance that you haven't made any predictions for the young patriarch recently. We noticed something in our predictions.” Montel listened to his father’s message and froze. From his father, he learned a lot about the reclusive factions, which he had never heard of before. After the call, Montel was a little confused and could not react for a while. Several minutes had passed before he returned to his senses. Montel quickly grabbed hold of Philip and took him to a corner. “Why didn’t you answer your phone?” Philip was puzzled and took out his phone, which had turned off because the battery was out of power. “It’s been a while since I’ve used a mobile p
The outside world was far better than the reclusive world in every aspect. If the other party came into contact with the secular world and fell in love with this place, they would have certain thoughts about it. With their strength, taking over this world was a piece of cake. Philip sneered. That stupid guild was simply asking for trouble. “What should we do next? Fight them?” Montel was wary. If the other party was really that powerful, it would be difficult for them to resist. Philip was cautious. He knew that this was the biggest problem he had ever encountered. Montel had never seen such caution in Philip before. He felt a little nervous and wanted to comfort Philip. “Tell Aslan and the others to leave the women here to look after the children. Let’s gather in the study.” Philip waved his hand and went to the study. Montel became serious and informed everyone about it. Everyone was laughing and joking earlier, but they fell silent upon seeing Montel’s expressi
“Cut the crap and spit it out,” Philip said in a huff. Aslan cowered in fear. Only Philip could intimidate him like this. “I’ve known about the reclusive factions long ago, but I’m most familiar with the Beast Taming Guild. That damned guild captured many of our people back then, and even I was not spared from harm. "Fortunately, my father was amazing enough to take me back from them, or I’d have been their slave now!” Aslan briefly recounted his story, and Philip's expression became serious. Through the Beast Taming Guild, he could already tell the difference between their practice levels. In today's secular world of practitioners, almost no one could raise a monster beast as a pet. However, the reclusive world had a specialized guild that captured and trained monster beasts. Philip had to admit that the reclusive world was very much ahead of the secular world. “Although the reclusive world sounds small and mysterious, there are many guilds as far as I know! Of course,
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
“I have other important things to do. Don't worry. I’ll be back soon, so make sure you work hard during this time. I’ve given you all the pills you need. Whether you can make full use of them depends on you.” In Philip’s opinion, the Hexa Guild could not do anything anymore, so there was no worry about them. After much deliberation, Jamie nodded. Philip did not belong to his guild, so he could hardly stop Philip from leaving. Moreover, Philip’s pill supply was already a great help to them. It would be annoying if Jamie asked for more. “No problem. Where are you going next? Do you need my help? I’ll do my best to help you.” The Celestial Palace was powerful enough for Jamie to say such things. Philip shook his head. He would be traveling with Adam next, and his strength was incredible. It was best for them to leave together. “It’s okay. I have everything prepared. Just do your best in the competition and don’t allow the Hexa Guild to take the upper hand.” Now that the Cele
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
