Besides, if Philip was really as powerful as rumored, this transaction would not be considered a failure. If Philip was really the successor to the heavenly path, Carol could already imagine how wonderful her life would be! Although the Pill Guild’s status was very high, two other major guilds loomed over them. As the holy maiden, her status also depended on the guild. The other two guilds were arrogant and did not like the Pill Guild, which had a poor reputation. Therefore, Carol did not have an easy time outside, and her reputation was slowly affected. Although Carol had not done anything, she knew the Pill Guild was not good either. Everything would be different if her significant other was the heavenly path’s successor. No one would dare to ridicule her or look down on her status again. They had to worship her even if she was a village girl! The Pill Guild was in chaos right now. The arrogant first elder kept saying that he wanted to take a look. Carol wanted to tag alo
Meanwhile, Philip was moving forward without any knowledge of the chaos in the Pill Guild. After Philip was taken away by the suction force, he felt uncomfortable as if something was weighing down on his body. He quickly circulated energy and returned to normal. He did not forget the dumb Rabbit as he did so. It was in bad shape, struggling to breathe. Rabbit was not good at fighting, and its practice level was low. Without Philip's help, it would've suffocated to death. Very soon, Philip was thrown out by a powerful force. When he returned to his senses, he found himself on a huge platform. The platform was located above the underground river with a black coffin placed in the middle of the platform. The coffin looked extraordinary, and Philip could not figure out the material used for it. It was tightly sealed, and the wood was pure black but exuded a faint glow. Philip felt a strange vibe from the coffin as if an evil force was attracting him. “Philip, something is wrong
Unfortunately, Philip was so strong that the coffin could not affect him. The other party had no way to control Philip, let alone absorb his energy to replenish itself. “I think we should leave as soon as possible!” Rabbit suggested cautiously. Rabbit could not help but feel that this scary place was like a large cemetery. It felt as if it would die here. “Something's wrong. Look around you. Don’t you think we're trapped in an enclosed space? The water in the underground river seems stagnant,” Philip reminded Rabbit to look around. Rabbit looked down and found that the underground river was not flowing at all, just like a pool of stagnant water. “Oh no, we’re trapped. What should we do?” Rabbit said in fright. If they had not entered the underground river, they could have easily summoned the crane to take them out. Now that they were trapped in this place, however, no one knew what to expect. At this time, Philip saw a huge beast that seemed to be guarding the coffin.
While the cow was not paying attention, Philip kicked Rabbit and sent it flying a distance away. Rabbit did not expect that Philip would throw it away and screamed before it landed next to the coffin. It shivered when it saw the coffin, which was very spooky. “Philip, you don’t care about my feelings at all! I’m afraid of the dark. Do you think I can look this thing in the eye?” Rabbit trembled as it approached the coffin. Although it complained with all its might, it had to complete the task assigned by Philip. The cow never noticed the rabbit’s presence. It was so small that it was no different than a fly. A talking rabbit could not do any harm. Philip quickly fought the cow. He had to admit that the cow's reaction was faster than he thought. Although the cow was huge, it was very fast. Rabbit tentatively stroked the coffin in puzzlement. At this distance, there was nothing scary about this terrifying coffin. “I thought the coffin could swallow me whole, but it’s so…” R
After taking so much flesh and blood, the coffin was already full of evil and no longer a pure existence. Philip knew that this thing had something to do with him. “What’s inside? Why does it need so much flesh and blood, and what is it used for? Does the coffin use the same technique as me?” Philip was tempted to pry open the coffin. He had no time to waste with the cow and simply killed it with one blow. The cow’s meat seemed pretty good, so he stuffed it into the space without wasting it. He then took out a dart and threw it at the coffin. The dart hit the coffin, but it stood motionless and undamaged. Philip knew how much strength he used. He then took out a whip and swung it at the coffin. He thought that maybe the dart was not strong enough to break the coffin. Hence, he decided to use a more forceful method to break open the coffin. If that failed again, he had to use something like an ax. “The giant salamanders were devoured of their flesh and blood upon contact wit
“These creatures are called Rainbow Butterflies. They're a rare treasure that you can hardly find on this continent, but I caught seven here! After eating them, I can recover part of my memory and strength. I’ll no longer be a useless rabbit that can only rely on others!” Rabbit was so excited that it wanted to jump and show Philip its strength right now. “It was rumored that these butterflies carry the bloodline of phoenixes. Maybe I can be reborn from the ashes because of them! These butterflies are amazing. Philip, I think you should take a few bites!” Seeing Rabbit gloating after eating all the butterflies, Philip really wanted to kick it. “Since you’re so kind, why didn't you leave me a few?” Philip rolled his eyes, but he was quite proud of Rabbit. It would be great if the other party could regain its strength. However, Philip did not value its strength. Philip could easily build up its strength with pills. What he wanted was Rabbit’s memory. If Rabbit could recov
“Besides, I’ll be of great help to you once I restore my strength and memory. You can't leave me in the lurch!” Rabbit was not a fool. With seven butterflies on hand, the other party could not be underestimated. It was doomed after messing with the other party. “Hehe, it's your fault for acting so arrogantly. Clean up your own mess.” While teasing Rabbit, however, Philip realized something very important. This person had to be very powerful to have set up such a formation millions of years ago. Although Rabbit said it felt very guilty for eating such precious things, that did not stop it from doing it. Philip felt his heart ache as Rabbit took one bite after another. After Rabbit swallowed all the butterflies, a series of changes occurred. The tightly closed coffin blasted open. Rabbit was sent flying before it could react. Philip rushed over and caught the rabbit before it fell into the river.Philip felt a strong suction force trying to suck him away. At that moment, h
Although Philip did not know the other party’s identity, he could tell the other party was not a good person from his strange black energy. “Are you two little guys so scared that you can't say anything? I’ve been practicing for tens of thousands of years, and there’s nothing good about this place,” the guy muttered at Philip’s silence. His black shadow hovered back and forth over the coffin as if looking for something. That thunderous voice pierced Philip's eardrums and made him very uncomfortable. “You’re quite strong to have found this place, and this damn little thing ate all my butterflies.” While he spoke, Philip looked at the coffin and saw three-meter-long crystal bones. The bone felt very weird and looked scary. “You’re quite talented to have reached the pinnacle at such a young age. You're much stronger than I was back then. Maybe I should take you as my apprentice! I don’t remember my full name anymore, but everyone called me Azrael.” Despite his explanation, P
“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
