“Philip, I feel like the day is getting closer,” Aslan said in a low voice when everyone was present. His hunch was very accurate. Fennel nodded. He felt a bad premonition too. When everyone was gathered, the whole world shook. Philip frowned and looked outside. The sky had turned dark and gloomy. The others looked at Philip solemnly, waiting for his orders. They knew that the crisis was finally upon them. The people of Mistral Temple rushed back in horror. They did not expect this day to arrive so quickly. “Why has it been brought forward?” Everyone stood in front of Philip in a panic, waiting for his orders. He was the only person they could rely on now. Philip did not speak but observed the changes in the world. It was impossible to stop the changes from happening. Ordinary people huddled in their houses in fear, watching the changes in the world in shock. All communication signals had been disrupted, and only static remained on their TVs. Many people tried to ca
Moreover, many practitioners had been busy with sealing activities recently, so the rest thought this had nothing to do with them. Although they were worried and lamented their weakness in this situation, they thought someone would save them eventually. However, they were wrong. Philip had never thought of saving such practitioners. If they had chosen to join the reinforcement team earlier, Philip would not give up on them easily. However, since these people were only concerned about themselves, Philip would not help them. The practitioners who had joined Philip’s team were now gathered at the villa, observing the world nervously. Philip was grateful for their help during this time. Similarly, they received corresponding rewards for their efforts. Philip would reward them with a pill when they went out for a mission. They earned a lot of money these days. Facing such drastic changes, those with treasures on hand were more unwilling to die. “What should we do? I’m sure
Martha was nervous and grabbed the hem of her husband's clothes, at a loss for what to do. “What’s going on? They've been so busy these days, but the effect is getting worse!” Martha grumbled, unhappy with everyone's efficiency. “Powerful practitioners like them should produce good results in whatever they do, but more and more are appearing. If the location of this villa wasn’t good enough, we’d have been dead already!” Martha read a lot of news during this time and knew that many places had fallen. She was worried that this place would be next. Fortunately, because many practitioners lived nearby and this area belonged to the academy, nothing much happened around here. Other than some screams and shouts, it was quite safe. However, the sky suddenly turned dark today, and they felt the pressure even though they turned on the lights. It was different from a normal night. If they did not turn on the lights while walking on the road now, they would be shrouded in the dark a
It seemed that the spirits wanted to take over human bodies and live again. Of course, Philip had to be prepared for such spooky things. After all, most people believed in ghosts and monsters while growing up, and they were exposed to knowledge about terrifying spirits. These spirits were not only good at scaring people but also harming them! Thus, Philip knew that these spiritual entities were the greatest threat to humans. “You have to take this sachet with you no matter where you go!” The parents of ordinary families quickly educated their kids. To prevent the kids from losing the sachet, they put it in their clothes. At this time, an eight-year-old child tore off the sachet from his clothes in disdain and threw it to the ground. “Who'd believe this bullshit?” This kid was known as a local bully with a bad temper since he was a child. He was unwilling to listen to others. “This sachet has no fragrance at all. It looks like an ugly package. I’m a boy. I won’t carry
The kid had no protection and had no choice but to allow the eerie presence to enter his body. “Ah! Mom, Dad, what is this thing?” The kid screamed as if he had seen something spooky. The couple just stared at their son. They wanted to help, but there was nothing they could do. The kid had been shrouded in a black fog, and they could not even see him. “My son!” The couple sobbed and wanted to save their son, but they were at a loss for what to do. “Let’s find the practitioners. They must have a way to save my son!” The woman shoved her husband hysterically, forcing him to go out and find the practitioners. The man sighed as he looked at the dark sky outside. He took out a flashlight from the drawer and illuminated it outside. The powerful flashlight seemed to have lost its function and could not light up the area at all. In the past, this flashlight could illuminate at least dozens of meters away, which was the reason he bought it. He was really scared now. “I
The couple finally realized what it was like to be blind. As the two walked down the stairs according to their memories and headed in the direction of the academy, a familiar voice came from the right. “Teehee, Mom and Dad, why are you leaving without me?” The couple screamed in unison. The man waved the sachet back and forth in front of him. Suddenly, his right hand hit something, and the sachet in his hand fell to the floor. The next second, he lost his voice. Similar scenes happened in every ordinary family. Those who listened to instructions hid in their rooms without encountering any problems. If there was one disobedient person in a family, things would end up in a massacre. Philip had no time to bother about it. The sachets he made were meant to be salvation for ordinary people. At this moment, the sealed land had fallen. Philip saw a door of the villa slowly open. Maybe the other party chose to open this door because they sensed the presence of the sealing
“We can't know for sure if we can find something that makes people stronger, but this door is enough to drive some people crazy.” Philip could tell that something was definitely strange about this door. Just one door made so many practitioners lose their minds to the point of self-mutilation, which proved how powerful and weird it was. With a sudden buzz, the sealed door exploded with a white light that shrouded everyone. Before Philip and the others could react, the white light took everyone away. By the time everyone returned to their senses, they found themselves on a barren land. An abyss lay in front of them, clearly a dead end. They could only turn back. “Is this what it looks like in the sealed land?” Philip was confused to find himself there. “Verge Tower, why was I sucked in?” Philip could not figure it out. He had too many secrets. Everything would be over if he was exposed. Philip asked Verge Tower, curious to find out why he was taken in by the stone doo
Other practitioners were nervous at first, but their worries were quickly replaced by excitement after hearing the comments of the people of Mistral Temple. This opportunity fell on their heads for no reason. Everyone searched around in the sealed land for their opportunities. They walked ahead and soon saw a huge palace in front of them. Aslan was very excited and circled the palace. “This palace looks very grand.” As soon as they entered the palace, a transparent barrier appeared in front of them and trapped them on one side. Meanwhile, a horde of weird-looking beasts appeared on the other side. The transparent barrier separated both parties to ensure their safety. The powerful beasts simply appeared in the palace, and their enormous bodies made the huge palace look smaller. The transparent barrier separated both parties so well that no one could hear each other. Philip searched around the palace, wondering what he could find. At this moment, the dim palace li
“What do we do with him?” Carlos asked. He wanted to skin the hooded man alive. Rabbit bared his teeth. “Kill him! Take off his clothes and hang him outside for everyone to see!” At this time, Alain finally noticed the commotion on this side. They were very noisy, so everyone kept looking over, trying to see what happened. Alain saw a familiar man lying on the ground. “What’s going on?” He walked over for a closer look and saw the hooded man! “What’s this? How could this happen?” Alain was dumbfounded. The onlookers had been watching, so they knew the situation. “What happened?” Alain asked in agony, wondering what happened. A kind onlooker explained, “Oh, don’t you know? That rabbit knocked the hooded man out!” Alain was taken aback by that remark. “How is that possible?” Alain was full of disbelief and thought someone had done something behind the scenes. Although he knew that the rabbit was powerful, he did not think it was strong enough to deal with the hooded
“You went too far! I’m well-respected wherever I go. How dare you treat me as a pet?” Although Rabbit had lost his memories after turning into an inanimate puppet, he could still deduce what had happened from Philip’s remarks. The hooded man was embarrassed to hear a rabbit reprimanding him. “If I can take you as my pet, that’s just a testament to my ability. If Philip couldn’t control you, what’s the big deal if I took you for my own?” The hooded man had always seen Rabbit as a pet, never a friend. Rabbit’s only purpose was to entertain him and fight for him. “Philip, leave this guy to me.” Rabbit was eager to take care of this guy. Carlos glared at the hooded man, certain that he had never seen him before. The hooded man also turned his attention to Carlos. From the match earlier, he knew that Carlos was from the Celestial Palace. In that case, he would have no reservations. He wanted to get to know someone from the Celestial Palace anyway. He ignored Philip and Rabbit
“What?” Carlos suddenly felt that maybe that rabbit in the hooded man's arms was Philip’s pet. “Stay here. I’ll take a closer look. I have a feeling that the guy is more than meets the eye. I think he was the one sneaking around my house.” After saying this, Philip walked over briskly. He had never seen such an arrogant thief. The guy was bold enough to appear in public after stealing someone’s rabbit. “Did you steal that rabbit from me?” Philip approached that man and asked solemnly without beating about the bush. The hooded man was taken aback by Philip's direct approach. “When did you appear behind me?” The hooded man was horrified to know that someone had snuck up behind him without his knowledge. It was as if Philip was immaterial. Feeling Philip's strength, the hooded man dared not say another word. He thought he was undefeatable, which was why he decided to watch the fun in person, but he got careless. “Are you saying that this rabbit belongs to you? Why don’t you
Jeff sneered at this scene and knew that it was time for payback. He did not plan to kill Hogster at first. After all, he was the young heir of a guild and represented the Hexa Guild. However, Hogster had pissed him off thoroughly. He had to kill Hogster at all costs. Thinking of this, Jeff raised the sword in his hand and stabbed Hogster. With that, everything was over. Alain closed his eyes at this scene. He shook his head in helpless agony. Due to the technique that he practiced, he could not have another child. Although he had been working hard to groom Hogster over the years, he had not stopped trying to get another child either. However, none of the women could get pregnant! Hogster was his only child so far. Unfortunately, his only son was dead. Under Jeff’s attack, he turned into dust and vanished without a trace! “How did things turn out this way?” Alain aged drastically all of a sudden and looked very haggard. The hooded man watched the scene warily, shocked
“What's going on? What drug did he take? It’s so powerful!” Jeff exclaimed in horror. All his attacks were ineffective, so what about Hogster’s attacks? At this time, Hogster attacked Jeff. His invincible mode would only last a few minutes. He had to seize the opportunity to take Jeff down. However, Hogster was not worried at all. In his opinion, dealing with Jeff was just a matter of seconds. “Go to hell!” Hogster made his move. He launched a killing move without holding back at all. Jeff was no match for Hogster at all. He was sent flying and fell to the ground miserably. Everyone looked at him with pity. Jeff spat a mouthful of blood and looked at Hogster in horror. Hogster had become so strong that he was no match for him at all. “Hehe, is that all you can take?” Hogster sneered. He was about to kill Jeff when the latter took out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it. It was the same pill he had taken earlier. Sure enough, Jeff was back to normal after taking
“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
