“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'
As soon as Bruno returned home, he asked Keith to help him kill Philip and seriously injure everyone else in the villa. After that, he could play the hero and take care of Wynn. Any cold-hearted beauty would fall for his charms by then. He looked forward to it. Keith was an elder from a reclusive guild, an expert who could increase his level to the seventh zone easily. It was easy for him to take care of Philip and a house full of losers. Seeing Philip standing in front of him safe and sound, Bruno simply thought that Philip was lucky enough not to have bumped into Keith yet. If they had met, Philip would have been dead by now. “You son of a bitch, why did you break into my house? Are you so eager to die before I even start messing with you?” Bruno said angrily. He could not forget Philip's mocking look earlier. He could not quell his anger unless he killed Philip. Philip shook his head disdainfully. “Did you ask Keith from the Pill Guild to mess with me?” Phili
“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
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
