Chad's face darkened as he grabbed Samuel by the neck and squeezed with sudden force."Die!"Crack!Samuel's neck snapped!Just as Chad withdrew his hand, he saw Samuel's neck visibly start to heal and reattach. That was entirely unexpected for Chad, and by the time he tried to grab Samuel again, it was too late.Samuel formed a seal with one hand, and a massive array appeared behind him, enveloping him completely. In the blink of an eye, Samuel vanished!Chad, shocked, shot into the sky and scanned the surroundings but found no trace of Samuel."Damn it!"Chad roared in frustration as he landed back on the ground, reverting from his immortal state.The berserk pill's effects were still coursing through him, his head adorned with the glowing rings of an immortal crown, his body brimming with violent, restless energy, desperate for release. The truths Samuel had revealed only fueled Chad's fury further.At that moment, the phone in the Hall of Herbs rang. Chad rushed inside to
Late at night in the Skyshroud Tower, two security guards were yawning in the security room.In front of them were numerous surveillance monitors, which, as usual, showed nothing but emptiness in the building after dark."Did you hear? The 16th floor is now home to dozens of stunning women.""Yeah, I was on duty when they moved in today.""If only I could snag one of them!""Dream on! Those women wouldn't look twice at someone like you!"As the two guards chatted, the monitor showing the 16th floor suddenly became lively. Dozens of gorgeously dressed women emerged from their single apartments, looking like they were about to go out.The two guards instantly perked up, watching as the women, divided into several groups, took the elevator downstairs."We're heading out now; my ride's here!""Go ahead. I'll wait for the others!"The women chatted in the lobby, and several rideshare cars arrived one after another, attracting the guards' attention as they approached to inquire.H
Chad's performance, instead of causing any jealousy or anger from Miss Sixth, made her feel that Chad was exceptional.That was the fundamental difference between animals and humans. Moreover, Chad's interactions with those women were all on a spiritual level, involving the primordial spirits.During their journey, Chad realized for the first time just how vast his Mystic Archive had become. The Mystic Archive was filled with real spiritual energy, quickly transforming into internal energy, replenishing his empty meridians.As a result, the backlash from the berserk inner pill lasted less than an hour. Chad used the continuous supply of spiritual energy to make up for his previous deficit. In a few hours, his emaciated body had completely recovered.When Chad finally emerged from the bedroom, he saw himself in the bathroom mirror and noticed some changes. He was significantly leaner, which only made him look even more handsome.Stepping out of the villa, he saw Jasmine sitting by
Chad looked at the spirit fox with a peculiar expression, carefully recalling the previous night's events.With so many women entering the Mystic Archive, he wondered if that little fox had mingled among them.The Mystic Archive was the human's ancient method of passing down knowledge, so any creature that gained enlightenment and entered the Mystic Archive would appear in human form.Chad was sure he had attended to each woman equally in the Mystic Archive world. If that white-furred fox had gone in, it surely would have been blessed with Chad's attention.Nancy, unable to resist the charm of the adorable creature, quickly took the little white fox from Jasmine. "Oh, such a cute little fox! Chad, can we keep it?"Jasmine, worried the fox might be frightened, wanted to stop Nancy, but Chad held her back. "If you want to keep it, of course you can," he said, giving Jasmine's hand a reassuring squeeze.Understanding Chad's concern, Jasmine looked at the little white fox with a seri
The ancient emperor cut down Yggdrasil to obtain more Evergrow and achieve immortality.Chad recalled Samuel's statement. "Evergrow is the key to becoming immortal."That implied that once infected with Evergrow, a person's body would undergo a transformative change, granting near-immortality. One could then attain an immortal body by using the three sacred trees to cleanse the Evergrow from their system.The three sacred trees were identified as Yggdrasil, Ashraddine, and Irminsul. Marshawn's diary mentioned that these three ancient sacred trees were paths to the Zenith, each leading to a different celestial realm."Nonsense!" Chad muttered as he closed the diary, organizing the clues in his mind.Marshawn's diary and Samuel's words claimed that Snow, after being kidnapped, was sent to the firmament and successfully entered the celestial realm.Initially, Chad did not believe it, but with both sources corroborating the story, he could not ignore it. If true, Marilyn was not Chad
Ronan chuckled lightly. "Of course, I hope you can make it in time. Otherwise, everything will be in vain!"Sadie said, "Maybe, by the time you get there, our great-uncle will already be cured. You should know that Dark Phoenix has recently healed many prominent figures; her medical skills are remarkable."Chad turned to Willow. "My phone is broken. Please give me your phone and buy a new one when you can. I'll pay you back when I return."Willow nodded. "Yes, Dr. Jennings. I can buy a new one myself; you don't need to worry about the money."Chad took Willow's phone and got into a Mercedes Sprinter. Ronan and Sadie did not accompany him.Once inside the vehicle, Chad inserted his SIM card into the phone and saw dozens of missed calls and messages, mostly from Matilda and Youlee. Ignoring them, he put the phone away and closed his eyes to rest.Chad eagerly anticipated meeting Dark Phoenix, hoping it would be their most peaceful encounter.That was his main reason for agreeing t
The driver's tattoo was a black fox head, indicating that the driver had a guardian immortal and was a shaman.The black fox was the most powerful among the Fox family spirits in the northeastern shamanic system. The black fox guarded the household while the white fox served the shaman. The Fox family's roles were divided very specifically.After a two-hour drive, the car exited the highway at an off-ramp. Chad saw the sign indicating they were in Orcreek, a small town adjacent to Bloomington.That puzzled Chad. After seeing Micah in Jeems County, that esteemed elder, Tenan, was also in such a small town.Did those former high-ranking officials choose to retire in such places?The car soon entered a narrow road flanked by endless wheat fields. After about 20 minutes, they arrived at an estate.Once out of the car, Ronan also arrived shortly after."Dr. Jennings, please come in!" Ronan said with a smile, leading the way into the courtyard.Upon entering, Chad felt like he had en
Chad stepped out of the bedroom and saw an old man and a young man standing outside.Ronan sneered disdainfully, "Finnley, aren't you doing well in Saffronesia? Why are you back?"Finnley smiled humbly and adjusted his glasses. "Great-uncle is seriously ill. Of course, I had to come back! Besides, I brought Dr. Mueller, a great medical god from Saffronesia. He will surely be able to cure Great-uncle!"Ronan scoffed, "Oh, really? Are you that confident?"Finnley replied proudly, "Of course, you don't know how superior Saffronesian medicine is compared to Hacniane medicine!"Jasper respectfully asked, "Excuse me, where is the patient? May I see him?"Ronan laughed derisively. "He's in the bedroom, but I must warn you, my great-uncle fought against Saffronesian soldiers in the past and has hundreds of Saffronesian lives on his hands!"That statement was not an exaggeration. The senior members of the cabinet were all veterans from that era. Tenan was one of the top generals in the c
