As Archibald watched the video, he said, "Save the video. I'll bring it back to Master.""Okay!" the disciple replied. After tapping a few keys, they continued to watch the sludge in the video.It had left Archibald and the disciple stunned. They would have thought they were watching a magic show if they had not recorded the scene. How could a person melt?Archibald left with the video two hours later, still in indescribable shock. All he could think about was how powerful the Elixir of Perception must be. It became even more apparent when Archibald returned to the Hall of Herbs and played the video on the TV.Chad watched with a serious expression. The knowledge he had inherited responded with some information upon seeing that.The Elixir of Perception, the third form of Evergrow, could reshape a person's body. Chad now knew about the three forms of Evergrow—black soil, white clay, and the Elixir of Perception.Imperious had mentioned that Evergrow had seven forms, each with dif
Camden smiled and waved his hand. "Alright, let Joe investigate the cause of Leonard's death. Make sure to find everyone involved in this matter."Joe cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Master! Leave this matter to me."Then, Camden said, "Alright, we've all had a long day. Let's rest. Joe, you stay behind; I need to teach you the cultivation method.""Thank you, Master!" Joe said excitedly and followed Camden to the bedroom.An hour later, Camden watched Joe meditate, unable to suppress his smile. With his newly reshaped body, Joe had entered a meditative state on his first attempt and quickly began to meditate.He even showed signs of entering the introspection stage. If Camden were to teach him the method ahead of time, Joe could start doing that immediately.In Mystic cultivation, before reaching the earthbound immortal stage, one must go through five steps—meditation, concentration, contemplation, introspection, and visualization. Talented individuals can achieve all five real
Chad was amused by Benjamin's words. "A curse that requires the chimera pill to be lifted? Why don't I don't know about it?"As a Parasite Emperor, the supreme existence among all curses, was there a curse he had not heard of?Chad grabbed Benjamin's wrist and began to feel his pulse. Chad had not noticed anything abnormal about Benjamin's body.However, after checking his pulse, Chad's expression changed. Benjamin was indeed cursed, a type Chad had never encountered before. The most shocking part was that Chad could not suppress Benjamin's curse, even though he was a Parasite Emperor.Was that curse from a higher existence than the Parasite Emperor? So Chad would not know anything about it?It was not impossible. The effectiveness of a curse largely depended on the target and the cultivation method. When Abaddon turned Chad into a Parasite Emperor, he used a special cultivation method to treat humans as parasitic insects, making Chad immune to all other parasitic insects.Howeve
"Why can't you tell me? Was my father murdered? Why didn't my mother let me see him one last time after he passed away?" Benjamin was visibly agitated, having gone through a lot in the past few days.Chad sighed and said, "You wouldn't have been able to see him. Your father's body was never in the capital city."Benjamin was stunned. "Who killed my father?"Chad did not answer immediately. Instead, he gave Benjamin a firm pat on the back, trying to locate where the parasitic insect had nested in his body.Poison witch doctors typically cultivated parasitic insects that would target specific areas such as the brain, heart, or intestines. However, Benjamin's parasitic insect seemed unusual. Chad found it lodged in Benjamin's lower energy core.A Mystic's energy core was divided into three sections—lower, middle, and upper. The lower energy core was at the navel, the middle at the heart, and the upper energy core, also known as the Sea of Consciousness, was located in the brain.The
The Elixir of Perception streamed to the ground, forming an elliptical sphere that refused to disperse. Anything that landed on it could not float.The black substance Benjamin vomited exhibited the same characteristics, creating a solid mass upon hitting the floor. Chad could see something moving inside the sphere.Benjamin continued to vomit, but Chad realized that something was wrong. He noticed that Benjamin's body was visibly dehydrating.Although unsure of the exact cause, Chad treated Benjamin to stop him from vomiting. Once the vomiting ceased, Benjamin collapsed to the ground, his body as limp as mud.Benjamin's condition resembled what Chad had seen in Joe's body reconstruction video.However, Benjamin did not turn into a pile of mud, unlike Joe. Instead, he was weakened and flattened, resembling a paper-thin figure on the ground.Benjamin's transformation process was relatively brief, lasting about half an hour. When it was over, Benjamin looked significantly healthier
Chad was surprised that she had changed her name to Tiffany Putnam and, more shockingly, had mastered the poison witch doctor's techniques. Chad speculated that Tiffany must have met Alexander before her brother Nathan did.Chad asked, "You said she studied in Saffronesia?"Benjamin nodded. "Yes, she attended high school in Saffronesia and stayed there until she graduated from university before returning."It meant Tiffany had lived in Saffronesia for about seven or eight years. She could have become quite skilled if she had reconnected with Alexander and learned poison-witch techniques during that time.Chad asked Benjamin, "Now that the poison is gone, what do you plan to do next?""I need to go back to the capital for my father's funeral. I must attend his funeral no matter what," Benjamin replied sincerely. No matter what happened next, he was determined to return to the capital for the funeral.Chad had also received an invitation to the funeral that would take place in five
Joe had just become a Mystic practitioner and was not well-versed in the ancient legends of Hacniane. "What kind of tree is Yggdrasil? Is it very valuable?" he asked.Quade, excited, replied, "Yggdrasil is the Path to the Zenith, isn't it?"Camden clapped and exclaimed, "Yes, it's the Path to the Zenith. Mystic practitioners didn't need to ascend to become immortals in ancient times. Once they reached a certain level of cultivation, they were qualified to ascend the Path to the Zenith."Still skeptical but not daring to voice his doubts, Joe remained silent. He thought the idea of Yggdrasil being the Path to the Zenith was far-fetched, but with his newly reconstructed body, he was not in a position to argue.Quade asked, "Master, what should we do now? Yggdrasil is much taller than before. How can we obtain it?"Camden shook his head slightly. "We can't move it. Yggdrasil has rooted itself deeply here. We'll need to negotiate with the Pernier family unless we buy this land. Let's
Sten said, "There was a war 20 years ago. Hacniane calls it the Battle of the Sky, and in Saffronesia, it's known as the Battle of the Dome. I fought in that war."Matilda was taken aback. "Twenty years ago? A war? I was only three or four years old then. Why are you telling me this?"Sten smiled. "During that war, two of my comrades remained in the sky..."Matilda was confused but continued to listen politely."They left behind these relics," Sten said, opening an old digital camera. He flipped through the photos on the small screen, showing images of a couple with their daughter.As Matilda saw the photos, she felt a vague sense of familiarity, as if some long-forgotten memories were resurfacing. The child in the pictures looked strikingly like her."During the war, the couple often looked at these photos," Sten said.Matilda, entranced by the photos, asked, "What happened to them?"Sten replied, "The war was brutal, with many casualties every day. One day, I returned from th
