Philip had no idea that Dwight was making up stories in such a dramatic way. “First Elder, I leave this matter to you. I’ll contact some powerful members to take care of that store!” Dwight carried out the task smugly. He had done everything he could. Not only did the first elder not punish him, but Dwight had also shifted the blame on Philip. He believed Philip was doomed. Messing with the first elder was a bad idea. The first elder was notorious for being petty and would do anything to seek revenge. Now that Philip was on the cutting board, Dwight was in a very good mood. He used the first elder’s influence to contact several powerful guild members. Although Dwight could not order them around, no one dared to disobey the first elder. “Camden, I leave this to you. I believe you can take care of them! “With Camden’s help, I believe we can get rid of those arrogant people if we work together!” Dwight tried to flatter everyone. He was not very strong, but he was goo
The leader of the Pill Guild once charged a high price to make some pills for Twine, but his health worsened instead of improving. Thus, Twine had always had a bad impression of the Pill Guild. “That useless guild dares to offend Mr. Clarke!” Twine ordered his contacts not to interfere in this matter, leaving Philip to take care of the Pill Guild. In his opinion, they would die under Philip’s hands. The people in charge of the city received the news and could only turn a blind eye without another word. Dwight marched into the city and saw no city guards stopping him, which proved that the authorities were afraid of him. “Feel free to attack Philip without worries. I think the city guards dislike Philip too, or we wouldn't have been able to enter the city so easily. I was blacklisted before I left!” Dwight thought he would never return, but everything went so smoothly that his ego was inflated. This could only happen when his strength had reached a certain level and the
Very soon, Camden arrived in front of Philip with a disdainful smile on his face, ready to deal with Philip. “This store must belong to you. I don’t think you can keep it running for long. Why don't you stop making a fuss and hand over all your stuff quietly? If you beg for mercy on your knees right now, maybe I can consider giving you a chance. If you dare to resist, don’t blame me.” Camden was very arrogant and did not take Philip seriously at all. He was ready to find fault with Philip. “Cut the crap and do whatever you need to do!” Philip was very annoyed by these noisy people. Since they wanted to deal with him, they should cut to the chase without going through all the trouble. Seeing Philip’s arrogance, Camden sprang into action without further ado. With his ability, he could take care of Philip in no time. Camden raised his hand to summon a bolt of lightning and launched it at Philip, clearly trying to kill Philip. The onlookers were terrified by this sudden attac
The onlookers did not expect that Philip was so powerful and looked at him in disbelief. “Who's that guy who defeated Camden? Is he a true expert?” “Who’s Camden? Do you know him?” The onlookers chattered, wondering what was going on. The people in the know quickly shared the information they knew. “That person is a very powerful senior member of the Pill Guild. His strength shouldn’t be underestimated, so I didn’t think he’d lose so miserably!” “It's really embarrassing to be defeated with the same technique. I’d have died of embarrassment in his shoes!” Camden scowled upon hearing the onlookers’ discussions. He wished he could kill Philip on the spot. As a well-known senior member of the Pill Guild, he had never been so embarrassed. Other guild members fell silent at the sight of Camden’s outcome. They were afraid that Philip would attack them with the same method next. “Camden, are you okay? How do you feel?” “Camden, can you hear us? Are you hurt?” Everyone was
It was a disaster for a high and mighty person like Dwight to end up in this state. “Philip Clarke, I’ll remember you for the rest of my life. You can forget about having a good life ever again!” Dwight scowled and vowed to get stronger and kill Philip no matter what method he used. The humiliation that Philip had given him today had destroyed his sanity. He would never get over it unless Philip suffered the same humiliation. Even so, Dwight could not face his internal trauma. He had to kill Philip because this obsession would prevent him from progressing in his practice. He could only consider other dubious alternatives if he wanted to advance. However, that option was unrealistic. Dwight returned to the guild in anger and considered joining the demonic path. Camden was not someone to be trifled with. After Philip defeated him, he quickly returned to the guild and reported the incident. The people in the guild did not expect that this matter would become so serious. They
“If we take care of this guy, we can easily gain a good reputation. Now that it’s the season to recruit members, we can attract more and better followers if our performance is outstanding.” This person was the fourth elder in charge of the guild’s public relations. He had always been resolute and decisive in everything he did. Camden seized the time to voice his speculation. He could not wait to frame Philip. “Normal practitioners have energy fluctuations, but this guy is different. I didn't feel the slightest energy fluctuation in him at all, not even when he took action and injured Dwight. His methods are no different from a demonic practitioner!” Camden analyzed calmly. In his opinion, his speculation was possible. The other elders were uneasy to hear that this guy was so powerful. “It’s strange that he can do so many things without the slightest energy fluctuation. Let’s check this person out and see what’s going on!” Steve did not want to give up this good opportunit
Steve sneered at Camden and did not take him seriously at all. Camden had no choice but to nod and smile humbly without a word. Seeing no way to resolve this matter, the elders scowled. They even had the idea of taking Lyle by force. “As a last resort, we can spread the news about this and get rid of Lyle’s evil teacher. Then, we find a way to erase his memory.” Their guild had a technique to erase memories. Although harmful, it was their only option. Ted, the first elder, took out a pill from his pocket. It was the so-called memory-erasing pill. It was a powerful pill they made many years ago. Other than erasing someone’s memories under a controlled environment, it would also not cause great damage to the victim’s abilities other than a bad headache from time to time. This situation would more or less affect the person’s practice, but they thought it was nothing to worry about. After all, Lyle’s great ability and talent could make up for it. As long as they could
Camden was upset and frustrated. He was distraught when he recalled that he had been humiliated by both Philip and the elders. Now that things had progressed to this point, it was too late for him to say anything. He could only wait for the subsequent development. Ted and his party quickly arrived at the city. They had contacted the mayor before that.The mayor took the matter of demonic practitioners in his city seriously and allowed the Pill Guild to take action without hesitation. As the mayor, he was aware that a guy named Philip opened a store but did not know the details. According to his subordinates, Philip was a dreadful person who marked his products at very high prices. No one was willing to forge a good relationship with a demonic practitioner who was also a shrewd businessman. “Elders, I’ll leave this to you. I’m afraid this problem will only drag out if you don’t step in!” The mayor was taken aback and frightened. It would be bad if the Pill Guild had not disco
“It's just an ordinary snake. Why are you so afraid of it? Look, it’s not even poisonous.” Aslan toyed with the snake in his hand calmly. Everyone looked at this scene, shocked to see Aslan toying with that unknown creature so boldly. “There’s really no need to be so scared. This snake is nothing special. I can even wear it on my waist as a belt.” Aslan tied the snake around his waist casually. The next moment, he found that his hands had become red and swollen. Everyone was horrified at this scene and surprised by this development. “Hey, have you been poisoned? Get away from the snake!” “Stop putting up a strong front. That snake is obviously poisonous.” Everyone urged Aslan to throw the snake away, but Aslan found that his hands were stuck and he could not get rid of the snake at all. “I want to throw it away, but it’s stuck to my hand. I can’t do anything.” Aslan looked at Philip in a panic. He had never encountered such a situation and was at a loss for what to do.
“Of course, I do.” Rabbit smiled smugly. Philip was curious at Rabbit’s reply. “In that case, tell me about it.” Philip quickly collected his emotions. Since Rabbit knew about it, they did not have to waste time and take the risk to explore. Rabbit nodded and looked at the luxurious palace around it calmly. “This palace looks familiar. It should be the snake monster’s territory. I’ve always been at odds with that snake monster, so I hate this place.” Rabbit took out a handkerchief and covered its nose with it. “It stinks so bad that I can smell the stench from a long distance.” Rabbit scowled, clearly hostile toward the snakes living here. Philip and Rabbit whispered in a corner, and he quickly understood the situation of this palace. The owner of this palace was a snake demon who had lived for 10,000 years. It was not only powerful but also bloodthirsty. If it had not been trapped in the palace over the years, it would've devoured the entirety of East Hill Island by
“Dude, are you okay?” Everyone ran to him in a panic, at a loss for what to do. They looked at Philip before turning to the poor victim again. Philip took out a pill from his pocket and asked Lyle to pass it to him. However, Lyle found that the other party had been corroded down to his bones. Everyone was dumbfounded by this scene. It was shocking to find that their comrade who fought side-by-side with them had been taken without even leaving a whole body intact. Everyone fell silent as the pile of white bones vanished before their eyes. Everyone was flabbergasted by the strong acidity of the rain. “This damn acid rain took my man’s life!” Yule scowled. Yule thought that the snakes were difficult enough to deal with. Unexpectedly, the palace affected them more than the snakes. Everyone sighed upon hearing that. “No wonder the snakes stay away from this palace. This place is scarier than they are!” “I thought this was a very safe place, but it turns out to be the mos
“The air in this place contains corrosive energy. If you want to leave alive, put it on without further delay.” Hearing that, Yule put on the cloak in a panic. He knew that Philip would never lie about this. Moreover, he did feel some discomfort. Philip became more curious about the hidden secrets in this place. “Corrosive energy in the air? Hehe. This is getting interesting. I’ve never encountered such a situation in all my years of travel. What an eye-opener,” Philip sneered. He was very intrigued by this mysterious palace. He had never felt such a sense of crisis before. This palace was simply over the top. At this time, one of the guild members felt uncomfortable, so he took off the cloak he was wearing. He wanted to adjust his clothes. The cloak was very well-fitting and would adjust according to the person’s body shape. However, his clothes under the cloak felt tight and uncomfortable. After he took off his cloak, he put it aside and quickly adjusted his clothes. He
Rather than getting the group to come back, Mason’s shouts attracted more snakes instead. A large swarm of snakes approached him. “Help! Stay away from me, you snakes!” Mason struggled desperately. Although he was not weak, Philip’s suspension spell was not so easy to break. Very soon, Mason was surrounded by snakes with no way to resist.After a long time, Mason finally regained his freedom to move. Unexpectedly, Mason was different now. All the snakes coiled around him as if they had become his slaves. “Hehe, damn Philip. I bet it never occurred to you that I’d evolve into a stronger person. What won’t kill me will only make me better!” Mason roared with a gleeful laugh as if he had solved a difficult problem. Philip and the others had no idea what happened. They were exploring the palace excitedly. The palace looked luxurious, but there was nothing in the hall. Everyone wondered where the treasures were kept. “I have a feeling that this place is dangerous.” Lyle frown
“Aren't you afraid that the snakes will eat you if you stay? These snakes are not as simple as you think. I know a lot of information no one else knows about. I can be of great help to you if you take me with you.” At this point, Mason looked at Yule in a panic, hoping he would put in a good word for him. Yule looked at Mason awkwardly and helplessly. He had promised to protect Mason, but there was a premise for it. If Mason kept playing with fire, Yule could not keep protecting this troublemaker. “Don't look at me like that. I did say I’d protect you, but you’re making a lot of trouble for us now. If it weren't for you, we would've taken care of all the problems already.” Yule shrugged. He did have the idea of pleasing Mason and getting along with him, but the facts proved that he was not worth it at all. After hearing what Yule said, Mason became desperate. He panicked, feeling that his end was near. Mason glared at Philip vehemently before deciding to leave. At this ti
Mason was very confident that Philip could not break this large barrier. Philip sighed and said, “You said it yourself. Once I break this barrier, you’ll do whatever is requested of you. To prevent Mason from going back on his word, Philip reiterated the deal. Mason nodded calmly. He felt that he was powerful enough. After getting Mason's affirmation, Philip walked forward and broke the barrier without hesitation. He did it so quickly that no one could react. Philip shrugged and pointed ahead. “I’ve destroyed the barrier. You may check and see if the barrier is still up.” Once the barrier was destroyed, they could enter and exit freely. Philip waited for Mason’s assessment with a calm smile on his face. Mason frowned, feeling that something was wrong. Although skeptical, Mason decided to check. If the barrier had been destroyed, it was enough to prove that Philip was a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, a weaponsmith like Mason could not afford to offend him.
“Well, I can give it a try, but I can’t guarantee the result. This is clearly an ancient formation. Even a powerful weaponsmith like me can hardly break it.” To preserve his dignity, he had to make things clear. Since he had mentioned the background of this powerful formation, it would not be too embarrassing if he failed. Lyle and the others simply nodded and smiled without comment. Mason plucked up his courage and studied the formation. He knew that this barrier’s function was just to stop them without harming them. However, it would be different once he tried to break the formation. “I’ll show you.” Mason was not sure that he could break this barrier. At most, he could only weaken the barrier for a short duration and ask them to break it by force. Although this method was a little embarrassing, it was the best choice. Philip and the others simply watched without a word. Lyle grabbed a stool from somewhere and watched with a bright smile on his face. After some work,
The palace looked very small from a distance, but it was actually so big that Philip could not see the end at a glance. Fortunately, they just had a good break or they would have been exhausted by now. “This place looks amazing,” Aslan marveled in surprise at this beautiful scenery. Just the luxurious appearance of this palace alone was more than met the eye. “Great, we finally reached the palace.” Yule was surprised at this mysterious place too. “If you hadn’t led the way, I’m afraid I would've gotten here on my own. It doesn’t seem like a good place.” The scary snakes alone were enough to keep everyone away. All the snakes were deadly creatures. It would be a dead end if they could not find the right direction in the fog. Mason could not wait to rush inside. He marched to the palace, thinking he could be the first to enter. To his surprise, he was stopped at the door. Some sort of barrier at the door blocked him. “What’s going on? Am I not allowed inside?” Seeing th
