Aslan easily carried Greg into the formation and crushed the eye of the formation with one stomp of his foot. The formation that could isolate everything and consume people's energy vanished into thin air. Since the formation was not completely under Greg’s control, he did not notice even when someone crushed the eye and destroyed the formation. To put it simply, Greg and the formation were just using each other. If this went on long-term, he would be devoured by the formation and become its nourishment. As soon as they entered the bomb shelter, the strong stench of blood overwhelmed them, making everyone frown. They walked closer and found piles of corpses. Philip recognized some of them as very outgoing fellow students. He grimaced at this scene. They died for no reason and suffered pain and various torture before they died. It would be unfair to them if Greg died easily. An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth. Even though he was a monster beast, Aslan could n
“Fennel,” Philip said softly. A vine slithered over from a corner and bound Greg tightly to a wall. Aslan stepped forward with a smile. Sharp nails appeared on his fingers, and he scratched Greg’s neck forcefully. However, it was just for display. In reality, his movements were very gentle. His action merely caused some superficial wounds on Greg. Philip waved his hand and sprinkled some powder over the wounds. “Greg, your wounds will never heal. Enjoy the feeling as your blood drains from your body one drop at a time,” Philip said emotionlessly. Greg was in despair. He never dreamed that Philip would be so cruel. Greg wailed in pain, hoping that Philip would let him go, but it was to no avail. Philip and the others rescued the remaining people and took them back to the campus quickly. The survivors felt very fortunate to be alive and wished they could become Philip's loyal followers after witnessing his heroic actions. “Thank you so much. We wouldn’t be alive i
“These people don't have many opportunities, and their strength is limited. Their progress in life will probably end here.” Fennel could tell that they did not have a bright future. This might be their only way out. If they were lucky, they could get stronger and become a force to be reckoned with. If not, they might encounter a similar scenario again. If no one rescued them, they would only die. “Sometimes, I wonder if kindness is actually a good or bad thing.” After saying this, Fennel turned around and left. He knew that this was not something he had to worry about. Instead, he should do his best to level up. In this vicious world, strength ruled. Philip strongly agreed with Fennel’s opinion. In this world, kindness was not necessarily a good thing. As soon as they returned to the villa, Philip felt something was wrong. He felt as if someone was around. They might have discovered the formation around the villa and so did not dare to approach recklessly. “Yo
The practitioner mumbled under his breath in bewilderment. Even if Philip burrowed into the ground under his nose, he had to sense it somehow. Could a living person simply disappear into thin air? Scowling, he looked around as Philip appeared behind him. “Are you looking for me?” Philip’s voice was cold like a ghost whispering in his ear. Philip’s voice and sudden appearance nearly frightened the man out of his wits even though he was a powerful practitioner and extremely vigilant. He patted his chest in a panic, his eyes full of anger. “What are you doing?” Philip chuckled at his fright. It turned out this guy’s bravado was just for show. “I want an answer.” Philip wiped away his smile and stepped forward. As Philip approached him, the practitioner felt as if he was being targeted by a tiger. Philip was just a useless secular practitioner, but he could put such psychological pressure on him. How was this possible? He felt ashamed of his fear, even a little
Keith was very upset that the other party had taken over the name of the Pill Guild. They were not aware of this until someone came to the secular world and found a Pill Guild here. Moreover, the development of this Pill Guild was so bad that it was an embarrassment to them. If the guild were good enough, they would not deny their identity but openly admit that they were a sub-guild. “Now that you know everything, you can die in peace.” Keith smiled brightly and made a grabbing motion at Philip’s head. In his opinion, Philip was just an ordinary practitioner with no way to resist him. When Keith thought that victory was right before his eyes, Philip released a bolt of lightning at Keith’s head with a wave of his hand. Keith did not even have time to react before he fell to the ground miserably. The lightning tormented him relentlessly, rendering his feeble struggles futile. “Who are you? How could you control lightning?” Keith stammered. The lightning frightened him
Besides, there was no one around, so no one would know that Keith begged for Philip’s mercy! Thinking of this, Keith knelt in front of Philip and begged, “I’m sorry, I was wrong. Please get rid of this lightning!” Keith kept struggling until he pissed his pants. Philip looked at him in disgust and got rid of the lightning with a wave of his hand. The next second, Keith returned to normal. He stopped twitching, and he was lying on the ground gasping for air. “Who are you? What do you want?” Keith was really scared now. He had even forgotten his identity as a reclusive guild elder. He was just short of kneeling on the ground and begging Philip for mercy. Philip sighed at his miserable appearance. What a useless guy. “So, you’re Keith from the Pill Guild. No wonder I didn’t see the fifth elder before this.” Philip pulled Keith in front of him. He wanted to know why Keith ambushed him. “Tell me, why did you ambush me at my villa?” Philip asked sternly and warily. Keit
In Philip’s opinion, Bruno was nothing. Keith’s eyes darted around as he gave Philip Bruno’s home address. It was no big deal for Keith to offer Bruno’s address. Philip could go after Bruno if he had the ability. Destroying a practitioner family was no big deal. He could easily find another family to take over the Lint family’s position. Philip secretly left a trace on Keith so that he could monitor Keith's location at any time. Then, he disappeared in front of Keith. Keith watched in apprehension. He did not expect Philip to be so powerful. His speed and level were beyond his imagination. Based on Keith's recent observations, Bruno could be considered a relatively good practitioner. With his help, Bruno could reach the seventh zone. However, at the end of the day, he was no more than an empty husk. Philip, on the other hand, was obviously different. He was a solid expert for sure! “Damn it! I fell for Bruno’s trick! If Philip goes after him, it’ll save me a lot o
“Come and get me!” As soon as Philip entered the garden, he heard the teasing voices. These delicate women seemed to be having a great time with Bruno. Bruno had a blindfold on. He grabbed left and right in the garden, trying to catch the sexy women. Philip appeared right in the middle of the excited crowd. He was nothing but a spoilsport. At the sight of Philip, the women were startled and fell silent. His eyes were full of a killing intent as if he wanted to mess with Bruno. Philip signaled for them to leave. The women wisely put on their coats and left. They were very discerning and could tell at a glance that something big was going to happen. No one dared to mess with a practitioner. Bruno was having fun when he could not hear their voices anymore. Frowning, he shouted unhappily, “What's going on with you girls? Have you lost your voices?” Bruno roared but did not get a reply. Feeling disrespected, Bruno became angry. “Stupid bitches, do you hear me? I'
“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
