Felix fell silent before standing up. "If that's your decision, then I have nothing more to say."To his surprise, Lionel chuckled. "I was just joking. How could I possibly risk my life for that bone? Go ahead with the treatment."It was all a test to see if Felix truly understood the nature of the bone. Felix hadn't given away anything, so the Warlord felt reassured.Felix felt a little helpless. Dealing with these experienced veterans was truly nerve-wracking. Even a minor reaction could have complicated things. Gerald had been right. Only those who practiced the Dragons Destroyer technique could safely refine an ancient dragon's spine. Anyone else, like Lionel with his unorthodox approach, was bound to face problems sooner or later.Outside, Nala sat on a small bench in the courtyard, lost in thought.To be honest, she had always had men wrapped around her finger, but Felix was different. Not only did he seem unaffected by her charm, but he had also, strangely, become an enig

As days passed, Nala never left. She would only enter the wooden house after Felix had finished his treatments. Over time, Felix also discovered the presence of an elderly person living somewhere nearby. This person only appeared during mealtimes, bringing them food. Felix figured he was likely there to protect Lionel.On the fourth day, after finishing his treatment, Felix stepped outside and saw someone approaching."Zara?" he called out.Felix was surprised. He hadn't expected to see Zara here at such a time and place. Her face, as always, could only be described as unattractive."Felix!" Clearly, Zara was equally stunned to run into him here. But the next moment, she quickly looked away. "My… my mentor told me not to speak to you."If it hadn't been for this reminder, Felix would've forgotten about the conversation with Silas and the promise he had made.At that moment, Nala appeared, and Zara hurriedly spoke up. "Lady Nala, this is a new medicine my mentor developed. It ca

On the seventh day, after Felix withdrew the silver needles from Lionel's body, he wiped the sweat from his forehead."Kindly check your body. Your issue's all resolved," Felix said.In truth, the silver needles were just a diversion. Without the Dragons Destroyer technique, he would have been powerless against the ancient dragon's spine fragment within Lionel's body.After getting off the bed and stretching his limbs, Lionel's eyes gradually grew brighter. He struck out with a palm, and the door to the wooden house shattered into pieces."Not bad. I can feel my old vigor returning! Finally, I don't have to lie in bed like a sickly person waiting for death!" Lionel exclaimed.As his voice echoed, the elderly man who had been bringing them meals appeared at the door, his face also showing a smile."Congratulations on your rebirth, My Lord."Nearby, Nala also smiled. Her grandfather's recovery made her genuinely happy. Felix was now a secondary matter."Felix, how would you like

In a karaoke center in Canraville, Felix sat alone in the private room, surprised that Jack hadn't arrived yet. He thought to himself, "What a flaky guy."He took a moment to assess himself, and a smile spread across his face. His strength had once again increased since he had two pieces of Dragonspine in his body. Honestly, Felix felt like he was dreaming. Because of this, his fascination with the Dragonspine deepened, but he also had one lingering concern in his mind.After thinking it through, and since Jack and Vanessa hadn't shown up yet, Felix got up and walked to the lounge area in the center's main hall. He then dialed the strange number from before.Perhaps because of Lionel, Gerald answered his call after a few rings. "Did you succeed?""Yes, Mr. Hoffman. You might not believe it, but I found out the true cause of Lionel's condition."Gerald scolded him immediately, "Drop the suspense, you little brat. Tell me right now!"Felix couldn't help but chuckle. So Gerald was

Inside the envelope was a single sheet of paper with one huge word written on it, "Death"."Don't worry. It's probably just someone pulling a prank. I'll go check it out," Felix said.Knowing Felix's abilities, Jack didn't try to stop him. "Alright, but come back quickly. Let me know if it's something serious so I can tell Nessa."Felix headed to Room V03. Pushing the door open, he saw a young man sitting alone on the couch. The table was lined with unopened bottles of alcohol, and the TV was paused. It was clear he wasn't here to have fun."I don't believe we've met before," Felix said as he casually took a seat.To Felix's surprise, the young man rose to his feet and approached him. Then, he suddenly dropped to his knees in front of him. "Please! I beg you to save my grandfather!"Felix blinked in confusion. This wasn't what he expected at all. He had thought it might be an enemy coming to pick a fight. "Please stand up first. Who is your grandfather?" Felix asked.The young

Felix smiled and replied, "She's alright."Vanessa beamed at that. "I told Jack there'd be no problem! I'm the best person for finding you a girlfriend. Nancy is my best friend from college. She's now a university lecturer at Shunnington University in Canraville. "She's beautiful, has a great figure, a good personality, and lots of guys are chasing her. You have to seize this opportunity!"Felix scratched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Vanessa, I appreciate your kind intentions, but I'm not really considering anything like that for now."Vanessa glared at Felix, clearly unwilling to give up."Hey! At least spare me the embarrassment, alright? Even when her family sets her up on blind dates, she refuses to meet them. However, she came as soon as I called. If you act like this, what am I supposed to do? Plus, she's a woman—it's not easy for her to do this either."That left Felix speechless. He hadn't thought that far ahead."You know what? I'll get her number later, and w

Felix had no idea how to get to Shunnington University, which was why he hadn't realized anything. However, the driver soon withdrew a hand from the steering wheel. Reaching toward his abdomen, he pulled out a handgun, pointing it directly at Felix."Don't even think about moving an inch. I've killed more than just one person."In the back seat, Nancy was terrified, even though she couldn't see the gun. With the car speeding along, jumping out wasn't an option."So, you're a killer. I'm guessing this cab isn't yours either?" Felix remarked calmly.The driver smirked. "You're pretty sharp. The real driver is in the trunk. He's dead as a doornail. I was planning to grab some random passenger, but then you flagged me down."As he spoke, the driver glanced at Nancy in the rearview mirror, licking his lips. "Damn, this chick is a knockout. Way better than the ones I've paid for. I'm going to take my time with her."Felix's expression turned odd. Of all the people to run into, he had

Xena continued, "You can deny it if you want, but the truth speaks for itself. An S-rank fugitive is at least near the level of a Martial King. Even most martial artists wouldn't stand a chance. Yet you took him down effortlessly. Do I need to keep going?"The S-rank fugitive wasn't weak. You're just too strong."She wasn't wrong. Felix hadn't given it much thought as everything had happened too quickly."My strength has indeed recovered," he admitted.Hearing that, Xena broke into a bright smile. It was a genuine smile that came straight from the heart."All that effort finally paid off. Back then, you gave everything to save those kids. It seems heaven has finally smiled on you."Standing up, Xena prepared to leave. "Now that your strength is back, your medical skills must be as well. I have nothing to worry about anymore."Felix hesitated for a moment, then rushed forward and grabbed her hand. "Xena, let's be together!"Xena looked into his eyes, then slowly pulled her hand

The guide said, "This is where the selected contestants rest. The yard is huge and has everything you need. As long as you don't leave this yard, you're free to move around. I'll bring you to your room now."The yard looked huge, with fixtures of bridges and flowing rivers. Felix even passed by a fake mountain. It was large enough for hundreds of people to climb, standing thousands of feet tall and looked quite majestically.No one on Earth or Aquamarinus could have built such a luxurious residence. Felix could even see a bar and massage parlor, showing how indispensable technology was in the universe. His room was luxurious, around 2000 square feet, and was decorated with traditional but modern touches. "This is your room. I'll take my leave now, goodbye." The young man left with a bow. Felix turned around and stood on the patio. Outside his room was a large lake, with even fish swimming inside."A new neighbor? Did you just arrive today?" The sudden voice came from the patio

Felix arrived at the location of one of Nine Flames, where the guards instantly collapsed, their eyes rolling back as they fainted.By now, darkness had arrived. He walked forward without any hesitation, his right hand touching the flame.There was no need for any special tools. The flame simply vanished, and only Felix knew that it was absorbed in an instant by his Starmark.With the disappearance of the flames, people in many places immediately dropped to their knees.The light that should have lasted throughout the night vanished, and the darkness of Desolated Lands descended almost instantly. Every light went out in an instant.Screams echoed everywhere, and panic spread like wildfire. Even though their loved ones were close by, they couldn't see them with their eyes and could only communicate through voice.Scenes like this were unfolding in many places, even in Cloud City."It's really started," Eira said. She was in Cloud City. Although Luigi was standing on her left, h

Despite Thiago's murderous glare and overwhelming killing intent, Felix wasn't scared. In fact, it made him smile.Due to the unique trait of the Dragon Rebirth, his opponent had to harbor a true desire to kill him in order for Felix to grow stronger. Otherwise, it would all be meaningless. At least so far, everything was unfolding just as he expected.Meanwhile, Holt was silently praying like crazy as he lay on the ground. The battle had already begun, and his companion had understood his message. This was their only shot, however slim, at killing Felix.As time passed and the afternoon crept past 3:00 pm, his companion started to falter. His attacks were growing sluggish. He hadn't been injured, but he was clearly on the defensive now.Seeing this, Felix completely lost interest. Once his opponent lost the will to kill him, the Dragon Rebirth would no longer grow.Still, the battle wasn't for nothing. He'd made solid progress and was a little closer to becoming a Celestial Realm
The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection Chapter 1563
Felix had clearly found Holt's weak spot. These guys were so desperate to extend their lives that they turned the entire Aquamarinus into a breeding ground. Obviously, they were terrified of death. As long as there was even the slightest chance of survival, they'd take it.And sure enough, Holt immediately agreed. He pulled out some kind of device and flew off, clearly contacting his comrades."But even if I agreed," Holt said, "the three of us split up and searched in different directions. Even if they rush over, they won't make it until tomorrow."The fear in his eyes was obvious, so much so that Felix couldn't help but laugh."How interesting," Felix said. "You made a deal with the Ant Queen, right? Couldn't she at least give you something to help you move freely through Desolated Lands at night?"Holt shot him a bitter smile. "The Ant Queen's children—the soldier ants—are born hunters. That instinct can't be erased. And honestly, we've never needed to go out at night anyway."

Lumen flew out and quickly returned. Felix's expression eased completely, and with a step, he vanished from where he stood."Chasing me was fun last time, huh? Did you think it'd go the same this time?" he asked.When he reappeared, someone was already lying on the ground about ten yards ahead. It was a figure fully shrouded in a gray robe, a man named Holt Bovington.That was Felix holding back. Otherwise, Lumen's previous strike could've shattered Holt's soul on the spot."Felix Zeller? It really is you!" Holt's voice was full of shock. Whatever he'd planned to do was already too late. His soul had taken a devastating blow, and he no longer had the strength to fight."Yeah, it's me. Just like I suspected, you people really aren't all that strong when it comes to soul power."Felix had spared his life because he wanted answers."If you answer a few questions honestly, I'll let you live. Even with your soul badly damaged, I assume someone who knows about Nine Flames and Desolate

Three months later, deep within a mountain on Aquamarinus, a meeting was taking place. Who would've imagined palace-like structures hidden within the mountain itself?In one of the chambers, a sky-blue dome adorned the ceiling. Beneath it, three figures in gray robes sat cross-legged, their bodies cloaked in shadow. Their faces were completely obscured."I went to see the Ant Queen yesterday. There's definitely something wrong.""Enough with the vague talk. Be specific.""In just three months, the Ant Queen has lost millions of her children. Do you even understand what that means?"The atmosphere shifted as all three took a sharp breath. A long silence followed before one finally spoke, "Perhaps our earlier theory is right. Is someone hunting soldier ants in Desolated Lands at night?""It has to be. How else do you explain millions of casualties? At this rate, we're down to just a million soldier ants across the entire planet. If this keeps up, they'll be wiped out in a month. An

"I didn't expect you to be a doctor, too. Thanks," Myles said, but then suddenly froze. His mind started racing.Wait a minute! He took down a tiger of True Blood Realm. On top of that, he was extremely skilled in medicine. That could only mean…"You figured out who I am?" Felix asked with a smile, trying to put Myles at ease. Despite that, Myles couldn't hide his fear. "You're Felix Zeller?""That's right. Judging by your reaction, I take it I've become a traitor to The Recovery Association? Or maybe some kind of unforgivable villain?"The air grew a bit awkward, and Myles shot him a strained smile."Not exactly… It's just that you took down the Flame Monarch. That's kind of hard to wrap my head around."His expression shifted again."Actually, everyone's still pretty confused. When we woke up this morning, every city, town, and even the smallest villages received a message. Five days from now, the Flame Monarch is holding a Flame Ceremony."Felix paused, frowning. "What's t

With Lumen and Indigo attacking and the Infinite Shield defending, Felix held his ground. Occasionally, he cast minor spells that barely consumed any soul power. Even as the monsters surged toward him like a tidal wave, not one of them could so much as scratch him.Feeling the steady stream of energy flooding into him, Felix grinned. If things kept going like this, there was a high chance he'd break through to the next major soul realm—Soul Overlord Realm.If he could level up again during the elimination rounds, his odds of winning the whole thing would increase significantly. Especially since Soul Overlord Realm required soul enhancement, it was a whole different league compared to Aetherium Realm.Once he hit Soul Overlord Realm, he was confident he'd be able to go toe-to-toe in a soul battle with the powerful figure who had chased him during dusk.That guy didn't dare appear in Desolated Lands at night, which likely meant his soul wasn't strong. In that case, Felix might actual

The sun had already begun to set. After fleeing in a panic, Felix had no idea if there was even a single place ahead that could shield him from the coming darkness.A few minutes later, the presence chasing him within his domain disappeared. Logically, the pursuer should've caught up in less than ten minutes, but they gave up. Still, Felix didn't relax for a second. The darkness was about to fall, and that could only mean two things. Either the pursuer wasn't confident they could survive the desolate night themselves, or they assumed there was no flame nearby and Felix was as good as dead.Either way, this was the most dangerous moment yet.After sprinting several more miles, Felix finally stopped. All around him stretched a barren wasteland with no end in sight. Even though he had memorized maps to identify different areas, they were useless now. As darkness swallowed the land, all reference points vanished."Damn it! I guess I'll have to see for myself what the hell comes out i
