Wilbur chuckled and said, "I wouldn't dare to take on the job if I don't have what it takes. You've underestimated me." "You're trash who doesn't even know about the cultivator list. How dare you speak so arrogantly?" Spiritual pressure instantly emanated from Joey as he spoke, and it washed over Wilbur. Wilbur looked displeased. An unseen spiritual pressure rose from his body too. Two spiritual pressures started to clash with each other, and strong gusts of wind picked up in the living room. Jude panicked and quickly said, "Please stop! You can't fight in here!" Wilbur scoffed coldly and retrieved his spiritual pressure. Joey did the same, and he stared at Wilbur coldly. Jude was their employer, after all. Their behavior was slightly inappropriate. Jude frowned and said, "You're both powerful cultivators, so there's no need to fight. Let's discuss business instead." It was apparent that Jude did not want to offend anyone. Joey scoffed coldly and sat slowly. He stil
It did not matter to Wilbur, and Joey also nodded. Suddenly, a dozen people broke into the living room. They looked at Jude with unfriendly faces. "Uncles, what are you guys doing?" asked Jude while frowning. There was an old man in his fifties among those people. He looked at Jude and said coldly, "Jude, you didn't inform us when the hidden realm is going to open. Are you trying to enter it on your own?" Jude frowned. Wilbur glanced at those people. He assumed they were a part of the Cook family because Jude called them uncles. It was their family business, so Wilbur could not interfere. He stayed silent instead. "Uncle, entering the hidden realm is very dangerous. I don't wish for you all to take the risk with me," Jude explained with a frown. His uncle sneered coldly and said, "Yeah right. You just want the relics all to yourself. You may be the eldest leader of our family, but don't forget that the Cook family is not just you, so don't you dare try to keep us out of
Everyone stood at the entrance of the canyon. Jude looked at the time and said, "It's about time. The hidden realm is in the canyon. Let's go." Everyone headed toward the canyon. Suddenly, a dark figure appeared and blended in with the shadows. The figure silently watched them. Wilbur and the others slowly walked toward the canyon. Cook Mountain was a main part of the Kardon Hills mountains. It was closely attached to Kardon Hills, so it was a rare sight to behold. As they walked to the center of the canyon, Jude stopped in his tracks. Everyone followed suit. "The hidden realm will open in half an hour. Remember, everyone, no one is allowed to enter except for us. We can't all enter to explore. Someone has to stay to pass down our family legacy," Jude said in a low voice. Everyone nodded silently. Jude sounded righteous, so there was no disagreement to be said. Wilbur did not know what the hidden realm looked like. He could tell that Jude and the others were also un
Wilbur and the others looked at the view around them. The entire group had solemn looks. They were in a field, and the field seemed endless. Bright sunlight shone on the field. They could see huge flying creatures in the sky that they never saw before. There was a huge palace at the center of the field. It was so high that it looked like it was connected to the sky. There was a mysterious aura about the palace. Everyone looked shocked and excited. They did not expect the hidden realm to be another world. It was quite magical to them. However, Wilbur was frowning. This demiplane was much larger than his, and it had its own ecosystem like a small world. He could tell how powerful the Cook ancestor was. Joey also looked excited. It was clearly his first time entering a hidden realm like that. Wilbur said slowly, "All your family secrets lie within that palace. Let's go check it out." They nodded in a daze, and Wilbur led the way. Wilbur looked at the creatures in t
"You're here," said the man with a nonchalant expression. "Only my descendants can enter this realm, but I have a small test for you. Go and hold the historical halberd. Those who pass the test can gain my inheritance. Those who fail will stay here forever like the zombies here." Jude was shocked. 'Could it be that my ancestor is alive? But it's impossible,' he thought. He did not understand what was going on, but he also did not dare to ask. They realized that those people were also part of the Cooks. 'Isn't this test too cruel?' they thought. According to the records of the Cook ancestors, no one returned from entering the hidden realm. Which meant whoever entered the realm became a slave of the palace. They could not guarantee that they could pass the test. "Ancestor, isn't this test too brutal?" asked Jude in a frightened tone. The man said nonchalantly, "Dangerous things happen all the time in the journey of cultivation. How can you be worthy of my legacy if
Wilbur said coldly, "I'm not as shameless as you are. I agreed to Jude's terms when I accepted the mission, so I won't take anything in here. You can't either." "Haha! You're a fraudulent Sanctuary level cultivator. How dare you speak to me like that? I can't figure you out," said Joey with contempt. Wilbur smiled faintly and said, "If you don't put down the historical halberd, I'll make sure you know being a Sanctuary level cultivator is not that impressive." "Outrageous!" Joey shouted angrily and spiritual flames instantly surged on him. He pointed the historical halberd at Wilbur. Runes vaguely appeared on the historical halberd. Powerful spiritual energy instantly washed over Wilbur. Wilbur also exerted his own spiritual pressure to fight back. The Cooks were overwhelmed by the spiritual pressure from both parties. They crawled far away and looked at Joey with fear. None of them expected Joey to betray them like that. They also did not expect Wilbur to defend them
The eerie move and the high-speed punch did not allow Joey to have time to react. He could not imagine how powerful the Godly Training Form was. The punch landed on his waist, and a loud explosion could be heard. Joey screamed tragically and flew for several hundred meters. He crashed into a gold pillar and was stuck there. The historical halberd was dropped to the floor. Joey spat out blood. He looked at Wilbur with disbelieving and fearful eyes. The Cooks were also shocked. They wondered how Wilbur almost killed Joey with a punch. Joey was a Sanctuary level cultivator. Moreover, he was wielding the historical halberd. How was that even possible? They looked at Wilbur in complete disbelief. It was just impossible! The Cook ancestor waved, and the historical halberd was summoned to his hand. The hall buzzed when he held the historical halberd, and it caused an anxious feeling. The Cooks looked at their ancestor fearfully. Wilbur also looked at the man with g
Suddenly, the ancestor lifted the historical halberd. Time seemed to pause in the palace. Everyone was shocked to discover that they could not move. That included Wilbur. He was attacking the ancestor in a weird position, but his weapon stopped at the chest. The historical halberd was unaffected by that. He slashed down at Wilbur. The marble floor underneath shattered into dust before the historical halberd hit the floor. The floor sank and crashed. The Cooks were shocked. Their ancestor was deranged, and they were afraid that they could not escape death if Wilbur died. They felt like they would become mindless slaves. Their ancestor would not have mercy on them. They could imagine how tragic their lives would be. A layer of iridescent shield suddenly appeared on Wilbur. A flickering light arrow also appeared behind the ancestor at the same time. All the energy from the historical halberd was absorbed by the Dragon's Safehaven. The Dimensional Arrow also pierc
