As they lunged at him, Felix pulled out his harmonica and began to play. When he first saw the waiter, he suspected the waiter was one of the wraiths Billy had mentioned. Normal martial arts wouldn't work against them, so the harmonica was his best option. But to Felix's surprise, the harmonica's sound only briefly slowed these creatures before they resumed their attack. They were neither human nor ghost. Just as he was about to retreat and burn the memorial coins, a white flash exploded through the tavern, followed by waves of agonized screams. "Lumen?"Felix froze in amazement. The mysterious dagger he had absorbed into his soul in Echo Cavern, which he'd never managed to control, was now protecting him automatically. Its power was incredible. While the harmonica couldn't hold them back for moments, Lumen cleared the entire tavern in less than a breath.When Lumen returned to his soul, Felix felt a pull. He left the tavern and immediately drew in a sharp breath. The previ

Both Dean and Atlas rushed forward excitedly. "Can you demonstrate the power now?" Tyler nodded. "Yes." Without another word, Dean left and returned with his palm open, holding blue powder. They had scraped it from their blue crystal using ancestral tools. The powder provided 30 minutes of protection from the creatures outside. Dean used it for supply runs. Otherwise, they would have starved.He had only brought his direct line and elites here, leaving the rest in Bedford at the family compound. Those people were expendable, so enemies wouldn't waste time killing them.At the entrance, Tyler walked out with the blue powder. Various wraiths wandered about and were easy to spot. The powder kept them from attacking Tyler.Taking a deep breath, he approached the nearest wraith and touched it with his right hand. Immediately, both became motionless.After about ten minutes, Tyler's lips curled into a smile. He withdrew his hand and commanded, "Down!" The wraith actually dropped

Even after the old man spoke, the Maximus family remained on guard. This was Corpse Town, not the outside world, after all. He could be a powerful wraith."Stay calm!"Dean, who was already at the mastery of Transcendent Realm, studied the old man carefully before launching an attack through the air.The old man slammed into the courtyard wall with a bang, coughing blood before dropping to his knees in terror. He pleaded repeatedly, "Please don't kill me! I beg you!" Finally, the others relaxed as Dean's expression softened. "You're just worthless Aetherial Realm trash. How dare you try to act mysterious before me?" Aetherial Realm? Atlas realized something. "Elder Dean, it seems the blue crystal can't change Corpse Town's rules. He must have just arrived. Let me question him." With Dean's nod, Atlas approached. "How did you get in here?"The old man was terrified beyond reason and only wanted to survive. To him, these people couldn't be human. How could living people exist

Dean suddenly burst into wild laughter. "You're right! When I said tomorrow, I was just messing with you. This ends now, Felix—right here and right now!"Nearby, Tyler gave a cold smirk and waved his hands. From the dark alley across the way, over 100 wraiths surged forward, blocking Felix's only path of retreat. He mocked, "So, Felix, what will it be? You can either come inside or deal with those monsters behind you."Dean had already made up his mind to use a desperate technique, even if it hurt him in the process. His earlier fight had given him a clear measure of Felix's strength. Though Felix was still technically in the middle stage of the Transcendent Realm, he seemed to have a secret technique that boosted his combat power to frightening levels.Felix could now fight against masters of the Transcendent Realm without losing. To kill someone like him would require Dean to reveal his trump card. And anyone who had reached Dean's level always had a trump card or two hidden u

Two deputy chiefs appeared, which was exactly what Dickson had feared the most. His worst nightmare had come true."Alright," Dickson muttered. Just as he spoke, his eyes widened in shock and joy as he spotted someone standing at the entrance of Corpse Town. "Dickson, it's been forever!" There stood Felix, smiling calmly. He had not expected to run into Dickson right after coming out of the town.Dickson roared with laughter, rushing over to Felix and pulling him into a bear hug. His happiness was so genuine that it could not be hidden.The two deputy chiefs stood frozen in disbelief. They knew exactly who Felix was—Deborah's apprentice, the one who had been forced into Corpse Town over a year ago. Yet here he was, alive and well, as if he had never faced any danger."No way! Is this kid blessed by the gods or something?" one of them muttered.They could not be blamed for thinking that. Felix had already survived Echo Cavern, one of the three forbidden zones, and now he had made
