The beasts and humans killed in battle would turn into bones piled up in the corner as if receiving baptism. Philip did not doubt that the corpses of these beasts and humans would one day turn into skeletons to fight against them. The people of Mistral Temple felt like they were going to have a mental breakdown. It felt like a dream to them. “Impossible. How could the ancient book deceive us?” “But they're still appearing after having been killed several times!” “Teacher, you have to save us. Many of our comrades have died!” The clergies of Mistral Temple ran around in a panic. They knew they were in deep trouble now. However, not all skeletons had the same strength after resurrection. That depended on their opponents. The skeletons destroyed by Philip would resurrect according to his standards, while weaker opponents might only achieve the same results after four rounds compared to what Philip could achieve in three rounds. After discovering this secret, everyone sto
Hearing the screams around them, Aslan and the others quickly checked on their people and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming everyone was fine. Those who died were weaker practitioners who were less guarded, mostly casual practitioners or members of large families. Philip could not do anything about it. He was not a god and could not protect everyone. After absorbing enough blood, the bone palace became spookier. An eerie red light kept flashing in the palace. The dismembered skeletons healed instantly and became stronger. After they returned to normal, they attacked Philip and the others with everything they had. Philip dared not drop his guard and quickly brandished his weapon. He did not know if the resurrected skeletons had become stronger. “These bones should be cooked in broth,” Philip frowned as he muttered under his breath. The force of these skeletons had exceeded 10,000 kilograms. Philip thought he could buy some time by dismembering the skeleton
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief for that narrow escape. Philip looked outside nervously only to find a huge pond. To be precise, they were deep underwater now. They were surrounded by bones that looked like they belonged to a beast. The white bones were hundreds of meters long and looked spooky with a red luster. They were trapped inside the palace, making it difficult to escape. Philip could only wait quietly for things to progress. Although the threat from the skeletons had ceased, they were facing new problems. The palace was shrinking rapidly, and they were trapped inside. With hundreds of people packed into the small space, it was very crowded. The remaining beasts were squeezed against the walls, unable to stand any longer. To vent their frustrations, the beasts simply crashed against the walls, trying to smash the palace into pieces, but it was futile. Tens of thousands of kilograms of force attacked the walls of the palace without leaving a mark, which prov
Death was commonplace in the world of practitioners. Philip stood in one corner and sensed his surroundings. A fierce battle seemed to be happening outside. However, the bone palace restricted their vision and senses, so Philip could not see what was happening outside. In a place where Philip and the others could not see, the huge beast skeleton was fighting with an ancient statue. They fought vigorously as if fighting for territory. A huge grave mound was piled up next to the two creatures. Dirt kept running down the mound as if something was trying to get out. While the two creatures fought, a loud noise shocked everyone, and Philip finally saw the situation outside. He saw two strange creatures fighting, but before he could react, the mound exploded not far away, shocking everyone. The mound burst open, and a young man emerged from inside. The man had the face of a six-year-old child, which looked very bizarre. “Philip, did you see that guy? How can someone look like
“Don’t be angry.” A dainty woman nervously approached the old man, trying to appease his anger. However, the old man was very angry and refused to listen. With a flick of his finger, the woman instantly turned into dust. Seeing this, the other women knelt in horror and dared not approach him anymore. “Anyone who dares to mess with me, Dustin, will be killed!” Dustin Lindell was very angry and wished he could cut the person who owned the sealing stone into pieces. Anyone from the Guzo Continent would definitely recognize this old man. There was a mysterious profession called engraver on the Guzo Continent. An engraver could engrave various spells on people's bodies that produced various temporary effects. This art could only be engraved on the human body. Although painful, the effect was quite significant. Certain spells could increase speed while others could increase strength temporarily, so this art was quite amazing. It was extremely difficult to learn this art.
Now that Dustin had lost all contact with the sealed land, staying here would only invite trouble and might even cost him his life. In that case, his only choice was to leave. After Dustin left, Philip noticed that everything in the surroundings seemed to have lost all life. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Philip exited the palace. The others followed Philip's lead and watched the surroundings carefully, fearing that something might happen. Philip tried to punch the statue and found that it was very hard, stronger than the bones. Philip guessed that Dustin made the statue. However, the statue had greatly weakened after the earlier battle. Since the statue was not activated, only an empty husk was left. Philip punched the statue several times and finally shattered it. He then solemnly looked in the direction where the old man was headed. He did not know who the old man was or where he came from. If he came from Philip’s world, Philip had to be very careful, because
Dustin was not the owner of the sealed land. How could he control the skeletons? Although the beast skeleton turned against Dustin in the end for some reason, Philip felt that the old man must have mastered a technique to control the skeletons. After Philip entered the grave, he found this place different from what he had imagined. He thought this place would be gloomy and dark, but it was very spacious instead. It was like a world of its own, with green mountains and blue waters. The whole place was littered with statues too. Judging from these statues, the old man was definitely not the owner of this place. The statues did not belong to him. He simply mastered the method of controlling them by chance. Philip saw a pond surrounded by trees, and various unknown birds flapping their wings and chirping. Philip thought he was in a dream as if his fight with the skeletons earlier was an illusion. This place was not very big, about 30 kilometers from one end to the other
Moreover, the man was half-translucent and obviously dead. Aslan looked at the bed excitedly. “I think this bed is a treasure. This body must have been here for at least a thousand years, but it seems pristine and is even surrounded by vitality. It has to be priceless!” Aslan stared at the bed expectantly. He would keep it for himself if Philip did not want it. “If you really like it, you can take the bed with you later.” Philip was not interested in such things. As soon as Philip said that, the man lying on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Philip searingly. “Have I been asleep for a thousand years?” the man sat up and asked curiously. Philip and Aslan were shocked by this turn of events. No one expected a guy deemed dead would return to life. The two of them stepped back warily and stared at the man apprehensively. No one knew what he was. “Philip, did we break into the home of an evil sorcerer? We’re doomed for sure,” Aslan whispered to Philip, rea
