“There are 18 powerful beings on this continent, all kingly figures in their own right. They guard over 18 respective areas and can be regarded as the overlord in each place! “However, Azrael is different. Although he’s almost as strong as those 18 people, he doesn’t belong in their ranks because he’s a demonic practitioner! “He has a territory of his own, but he wreaked havoc in that place and made such a mess that countless people were dispatched to get rid of him! “He probably holed himself up in such a remote cliff because of their pursuit, lying in wait for his resurrection.” Rabbit explained in detail what happened back then. In short, Azrael was severely injured but the hunt for him was still ongoing, so he chose this method for resurrection. Philip finally knew Azrael’s background but did not think he was worthy of admiration. Philip had always despised demonic practitioners and did not share their views at all. “In that case, I’m actually doing a good deed by captu
Rabbit smiled at Philip. It had regained quite a bit of memories this time. Although still lacking, it was good enough. Philip nodded with satisfaction. This little rabbit had done something good this time. Philip emptied the coffin and walked to the depths of the underground river with Rabbit in tow. Although the underground river was like stagnant water, there was a path leading into the distance. Philip walked into the depths of the dark river and soon saw a glimmer of light. Azrael had been tortured beyond recognition by this point. He was sprawled in the cage, full of resentment. He hated himself for messing with an enemy like Philip. He wondered why someone so powerful would appear here to disturb his practice. If Philip was not so strong, he could take over his body by force, which was a good thing for Azrael. However, Azrael had no way to deal with such a powerful guy. Now that he was captured instead, it was a tragic end for him. ‘Oh no, if he walks to the end of t
Holy light would corrode Azrael at the slightest touch. Azrael found that his skin was burning and festering by now. Although he was a spiritual entity now, he felt the pain. He would be dead if he was fully exposed to the holy light. “Mmph!” Azrael groaned. He had no idea that Verge Tower was doing this with malicious intent. Philip was unfazed. He did not intend to pay attention to that lunatic. “We need to watch out. I have a bad feeling about this,” Rabbit reminded Philip uneasily. It felt that everything was too good to be true, so it did not dare to proceed. The place in front looked very grand, and no one knew what lay inside. “Something doesn’t seem right. Maybe I’m too sensitive, but I think that this thing…” Rabbit frowned at the holy light in front. Something felt wrong about everything. Philip was puzzled by Rabbit’s caution, wondering what it was thinking. “Just speak your mind. There’s no need to mutter under your breath. Are you hiding something from me
Philip did not doubt Rabbit’s words. Its strength was limited, so Philip never thought that Rabbit would deceive him. “Just because you failed doesn’t mean I can’t do anything,” Philip said with a bright smile. He was fully prepared and knew what to do. Rabbit had no choice but to follow Philip to this extremely dangerous place. Although devastated, it decided to give in. Philip quickly reached the holy place and had to squint his eyes. The light was too distracting, and he could not see clearly. As soon as Philip arrived, he saw the words ‘Heavenly Path’. He did not expect to find Heavenly Path’s Carrefour so easily. “It took me no effort to get here at all. This is surreal!” Philip sighed with emotion. He did not expect such an amazing thing to happen to him. With a bright smile on his face, he walked into Heavenly Path’s Carrefour. Philip was very excited to see this mysterious place. He knew that this place was very special. “Is this the so-called Heavenly Path’s Carr
Rabbit was quite traumatized by that constant wailing. When Philip walked closer, he realized that the thing making that noise was not a weird creature but a living person. That weird person seemed to be restrained by something, screaming miserably without moving at all. Since the person was the only living creature around, Philip walked over for a closer look. The other party was bound to this place and rendered motionless although they were quite powerful and capable. “What are you?” Philip asked curiously. He did not know if the other person could speak, but he had to find a way to communicate with the other party. “You can think of me whatever you want,” the other party replied quickly, proving that they could speak human language. Philip was puzzled. He reached out and touched the iron chains that restrained the other person and found that it was quite strong. “I’ll submit to you if you can release me from these iron chains. I'll kill whoever you want me to kill af
Philip was shocked to hear Rabbit’s words. So, the person in front of him was the so-called heavenly path’s guardian. After much deliberation, Philip decided to release him. He had to find out more about the guardian no matter what. “I can release you, but you have to tell me everything. Don’t try to lie to me.” Philip looked at the other person sternly and told him to make an oath. The guardian nodded and made his vow solemnly. “I swear upon my soul that I’ll never lie to you. If I do, you can do whatever you want to me. If you save me, I’ll give you everything I have.” Philip was surprised by his reaction. He was a good person, indeed. Not many people would dare to swear upon their souls. The result would be very bad if they broke their promise. Philip took out his weapon and broke the chains easily. The heavenly path’s guardian was shocked that Philip was strong enough to break the chains easily. As the heavenly path’s guardian, he knew how strong the chains were. “W
“I’m the so-called heavenly path’s guardian! But you must think that I’m very pitiful to end up in this miserable state.” He took the wine from Philip’s hand and smiled wryly. He never thought he would become so pathetic one day. As he spoke, he closed his eyes, recalling the past. Back then, all heavenly path’s guardians had an extraordinary status, and this place was thriving. Everyone wished that they could become a member of the heavenly path. Later, however, other creatures kept attacking this place. To wreak havoc, they even broke into the Heavenly Path’s Carrefour. Philip listened to the story while trying to imagine the scene, and his emotions surged. He did not expect that they had gone through so much back then. He could hardly imagine what the other party had encountered to end up in such a sorry state. “Back then, several powerful monsters came to my territory and trapped me, rendering me immobile in this place. I never thought they were so powerful!” Philip s
Philip took Rabbit out. He wanted to know the conflict between the two. The guardian’s expression changed rapidly upon seeing Rabbit as if he wanted to beat Rabbit up. “This damn rabbit is too much!” the guardian rushed over angrily. “This rabbit turned up when I was locked up back then. I begged it to help me, but it mocked me and even did something to my head instead!” The guardian was furious and did not elaborate. Philip finally knew why the guardian hated Rabbit so much. Rabbit had shamelessly mocked the guardian for being trapped in this place and even did something to his head. “I had some strength back then, so I took care of it. For now, maybe it can live a few more days.” Since Rabbit was Philip’s follower now, the guardian had no choice but to swallow his anger. “Since it’s your subordinate, I won’t say anything more, but I’m not happy with it!” Rabbit knew it had gone too far, so it gave in without defending itself. Philip smiled at the guardian’s ange
It could be considered returning the favor. Jamie shook his head helplessly. He knew Philip’s kind intentions, but this matter was not so simple. “I know that your wine can improve someone’s strength, but it’s no help to us right now!” The overall strength of the Hexa Guild had increased so much that it went beyond anyone’s comprehension. Carlos turned up at this time. He wanted to talk to Philip about this matter, but Jamie beat him to it. “My friends just told me that the Hexa Guild is hellbent on dealing with everyone, not only us. Anyone up against them will be killed. They must be insane to face any guilds without fear!” Philip was intrigued. They could not be so confident for no reason. They must have encountered an opportunity. “Maybe they encountered an opportunity. I can't be sure about this, but I can at least provide you something to ensure that nothing happens to your people.” After saying this, Philip handed Jamie some pills. Philip was very confident about
It was very suspicious that a bunch of losers became so strong all of a sudden. “Philip, don’t you think something is wrong? I have a feeling that the Hexa Guild did something,” Jamie asked bluntly with mixed feelings about it. There was clearly something wrong with the Hexa Guild. Philip nodded. He had been watching the competition carefully. He could see that these people’s strength had just been improved, and their foundation was not very stable. “Don't think too much. There is a problem with them, and it’s not small either. From the looks of it, they must've taken something that can quickly improve their strength. However, their skills and combat experience can't keep up, so they can only barely manage it.” Philip shook his head helplessly. At this rate, even the members of the Celestial Palace would suffer. Moreover, the Hexa Guild held a big grudge against the Celestial Palace. Once they met, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. “What should we do? All th
“You should prepare for the competition.” Philip turned and left after saying that. Everyone felt angry at his domineering appearance. Some people had ideas about Philip. “Which guild does Philip belong to?” a man with a sinister face asked angrily. He wanted to know which guild Philip belonged to so that he could go all out to target Philip's guild. Others shook their heads. No one knew much about Philip. At this time, a spy from the Hexa Guild stepped forward. He looked at the man flatteringly and provided all the information he knew. “Philip doesn't belong to any guild, but he’s an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace!” The fact that Philip became an honorary elder of the Celestial Palace had not been made public. Only people keeping a close eye on the Celestial Palace knew about it. The Hexa Guild had always wanted to deal with the Celestial Palace, so they had been keeping a close eye on the latter. They knew all the minor details. The man scowled as if he did
“I can explore the secret realm on your behalf, but why do you think she’d appear there?” Although Philip could not figure it out, maybe the old monk had his reason for saying that. “I’ll explore the secret realm after the guild competition is over. If I can find the woman you’re looking for, I’ll think of a way.” In fact, Philip would rather take the old monk with him. He did not know what the woman looked like, so it was better for the old monk to do it himself. “Sure!” The old monk smiled brightly, surprised that Philip would agree so decisively. The secret realm was full of dangers. He knew that he should not let others take risks for him, but Philip did not ask any questions and even agreed to his request without any hesitation. “I’ll think about it and see if I can find a way to bring you in,” Philip said off-handedly. He still preferred to bring the old monk with him. The old monk was dumbfounded and thought he had heard it wrongly. “What?” The old monk gaped at
“The truth is that I have a favor to ask of you, but I’m afraid of overstepping the line, so…” The old monk knew that his action was inappropriate, so he was conflicted and wondered how he should ask for Philip’s help. Philip was interested upon hearing that the old monk needed a favor. He wanted to know what stumped him. With his strength and status, the old monk should be omnipotent. “Feel free to speak your mind. If I can handle it, I don’t mind lending a helping hand.” Philip would not help for no reason. If the other party was willing to pay the price, he would not refuse. The old monk was excited to hear Philip’s agreement. “I have the location of a secret realm. I tried to enter it once, but the secret realm told me that I couldn’t enter it,” the old monk said with regret. “There should be a lot of good things in this secret realm, so I’m very disappointed that I can't enter and explore it. I was told that only people from other worlds could enter this secret realm.
“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
