Philip found various plants, pills, and weapons on different levels of Glaze Tower. The rewards he received after passing the levels were normal herbs that could be bought in the outside world. Although the number was staggering, there was no point in having so many ordinary herbs. Philip wondered if his people had discovered this secret. He passed the levels one after another and collected everything he found. Soon, he reached the ninth floor easily. He had no idea the sensation he caused in the outside world when he reached the ninth floor. Many big guilds were worried and gave up on dealing with Philip. However, those who wanted to deal with Philip became more determined. “Damn it, we can’t let him continue to develop no matter what. He’s terrifying. We have to kill him while he's still young at all costs!” “That's right, we have to treat him as a demonic practitioner and get rid of him while we can!” Otto's expression changed drastically when he saw Philip’s progress.
Rick scowled. Of course, he knew the truth, but he had no idea what he should say to ease the atmosphere. In fact, each level had a time limit, and the challengers would be eliminated if they were stuck on one level for too long. However, as long as they were not killed by the beast, they would not die. The challengers were kicked out one after another. Some chose to give up while others were eliminated from taking part in the next challenge. Rick was very upset when he saw Philip passing one level after another as if he was about to conquer Glaze Tower. In his opinion, Philip was just a young kid. How powerful could he be? Why could he remain in Glaze Tower for such a long time? At this time, a cold gaze stared fixedly at the Glaze Tower rankings. His name was Lester. As the strongest member of the Cadence Guild, he only managed to reach the sixth floor this time. He tried his best to challenge the next level but was almost torn into pieces by the beast. Due to this re
“I could've stayed inside longer to have some more fun, but I had a feeling it wouldn’t do me any good. The last two levels are difficult, and I cherish my life very much.” “Yeah, I wasted so much time inside because I discovered the secret of Glaze Tower.” Everyone chatted with each other as if they were comparing answers after an exam. Hearing the exchange, the onlookers pricked up their ears curiously. They wanted to know the situation above the fifth floor. Hearing the onlookers questioning them curiously, the members were full of contempt. “Do you want to know the secret of Glaze Tower now? Hehe, you can forget about getting information for nothing.” Everyone was full of disdain. They knew these people were up to no good. Except for some newly recruited members who chose to quit on the eighth floor, other veteran members continued the challenge. At this moment, Philip was on the ninth floor. Thick smoke appeared before his eyes and quickly permeated the whole place
Philip left Glaze Tower after collecting everything he could find. The next moment, Glaze Tower dazzled brightly, and a person was teleported out. Everyone stopped talking and walked forward curiously to take a look at the teleported person, who was none other than Philip. Philip walked out leisurely while checking his loot. He had searched every nook and cranny and only chosen to leave after confirming that there were no other treasures in Glaze Tower. After he passed the challenge, however, Glaze Tower rewarded him with other things, which looked quite good. Unexpectedly, Glaze Tower also merged with Philip, becoming one with him. Philip explored Glaze Tower excitedly. It would be best if Glaze Tower really became his private property. He received a lot of information about Glaze Tower, and he could also kick everyone out of it. He could see Aslan and the others accepting the challenges and searching for treasures. If he could see these extraordinary things, Philip was su
After paying the entry fee, they found a serious problem. Glaze Tower would not let anyone in. By right, they simply had to enter Glaze Tower's entrance and the tower would bring them inside to start challenging the first level. However, they stood at the entrance for a while but Glaze Tower did not do anything. “What’s wrong with Glaze Tower? Is it not accepting people anymore?” “If that’s the case, that sounds bad. My fellow guild members are still on their way here.” “What’s going on? Can anyone rectify this problem?” Everyone was horrified by this sudden development. No one owned Glaze Tower, so it was impossible to find a solution. “I’m sure Glaze Tower decided not to let more people inside because someone has passed the challenge. This must be Philip’s fault.” Rick seized the opportunity to pin the blame, glaring at Philip viciously. Lester scowled at this unexpected outcome. Although he had been kicked out of Glaze Tower, he still had the opportunity to enter aga
Rick retreated into a corner dejectedly, trying to think of a way to trigger a conflict between Philip and everyone else. Although there was conflict, everyone hid their emotions without venting their frustrations. At this time, Otto approached Philip privately. He had a good impression of Philip and wanted to know him better. “Have you heard of a place called Deadly Arena?” Otto and Philip sat in a tavern drinking like best buddies. The other members of the two guilds were eating and drinking at other places. Everyone was exhausted after spending so much energy in Glaze Tower over a long duration. “What is it? Is it something like a battle arena?” Philip said curiously. He had never heard of it. Otto nodded. “We can take a transportation tool called a cloud vessel to the Clandestine Continent.” This continent was more than met the eye, and it was famous for the so-called Deadly Arena. Philip’s interest was piqued. After his people had their fill, they arrived at the
The young man’s face was stained with blood, but he did not seem injured. He looked cool and handsome. An older man stood across from the young man. The former clutched his stomach as if trying to stop the blood from flowing. The older man looked at the young man solemnly and said, “Thank you for not killing me. Please excuse me.” The older man left after losing the fight without displaying any anger or staying around to mess with others. The audience cheered like crazed fans and chanted the young man’s name, “Fabian! Fabian!” Everyone was excited to see this mind-blowing scene. Philip observed the young man with a saber in hand. He could tell Fabian was very strong, a force to be reckoned with. The challengers would receive certain rewards, and everyone could make some money by placing bets. Of course, the winner would get more rewards while the loser would receive some compensation. However, that was on the premise that they survived. Everything that happened in Dea
Philip noticed his people’s eager expressions and shook his head helplessly. Since they were here, there was no reason not to take part. He would have let them do it even if they had not asked. Everyone quickly signed up excitedly. Everyone received a name tag, and their names appeared on the huge stone tablet. Everyone had a zero above their names. Their stats were clearly so clean because they did not have any rankings. “Oh? So many little guys signed up! This is really interesting!” “It’s been a while since we saw any fresh faces. It’s interesting to see them sign up for this.” Everyone was interested in these rookies. In their opinion, they were nothing but cannon fodder. They were relatively young and did not seem powerful at all. “How many young talents can there be in the world? There are only a handful of them.” “Most young people can only be seen as pitiful cannon fodder.” Everyone discussed these young people excitedly but did not think highly of them. Heari
“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
