Splitmove was a technique that allowed the cultivator to travel within short distances in a split second, a very handy and useful technique. This was a type of technique that even Sanctuary level cultivators might not be able to master. However, Wilbur had looked up information on Skyler before this. He was just a beginner Ambience level cultivator. He must have some secrets of his own to be able to master the Splitmove at that stage. Skyler himself was shocked as well. He was a master of Splitmove and had never lost before. However, this man before him had just nullified his attack with just a wave of his arm, all while being able to attack Skyler as well. How had Wilbur been so sure where Skyler was going to travel to? Skyler could not understand the situation at all. Of course, Wilbur understood it fully. Whenever Wilbur got into a battle, he would extend his spirit energy to form an invisible sensor within a one-meter radius around him. That allowed Wilbur to sense
A heavy thump echoed through the room as Skyler felt like his entire system was upended. The spirit energy in his body flowed out uncontrollably, unable to condense at all. It could be said that Wilbur had rendered Skyler unable to fight anymore. The other gamblers stared at them in shock. Skyler was already terrifyingly powerful, but this man was even more so. He had taken Skyler out with just one move, and none of them could understand just how this man had done it. Matt and Gerard were much more relieved upon seeing Skyler taken down, and they turned to the gamblers and owner of the club. "Tell anyone a word of what happened tonight, and we'll have your heads." The owner of the club barely dared to say a word, hurrying off with the other gamblers as they ran out of the club. Jerome drove right home. Whatever happened to the club was out of his control now. He was fine with anything as long as he did not get swept up into this terrifying battle. Just then, Wilbur turned
A cultivator did not usually care much about money, but they did care about precious ancient treasure. That was much, much harder to find compared to money. Cultivation methods, weapons, pills, and antidotes. Anything of that sort was important to a cultivator. Wilbur raised his brows. Who would have thought that something would actually come out of scaring the guy? He fell silent for a brief moment before saying, "Go on. I'm listening." Sensing Wilbur's interest, Skyler crawled up slowly and put on a mysterious expression. "I stumbled across these ancient remains a while back when I went to Jarlinville, but it was sealed shut with a powerful spell. I was afraid I might be getting myself in trouble, so I didn't go in. However, I'm sure you'll be able to do so since you're so powerful! Judging from the spell sealing it shut, I'm sure it's hiding something pretty good." "Heh. You didn't go in, or you weren't able to?" Wilbur mocked. Skyler flushed, saying nothing further. W
Of course, there was no way Faye was convinced. She crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking up at the ceiling. Wilbur resigned to taking out the Marrow Cleansing Pill, waving it in front of Faye. "Look, I've got a present for you." "What is it?" Faye's curiosity was piqued, and she glanced at the pill. Wilbur said, "This is a Marrow Cleansing Pill. I got it just for you. Once you take it, I'll channel spirit energy into your body and you'll be able to start cultivating as a cultivator." "Really?" Faye was overjoyed. Ever since Faye had witnessed just what Wilbur was capable of, she had fantasized about what it would be like to have powers like his. She knew, however, that she would never have such a chance. However, upon seeing Faron and Elsa becoming cultivators too, frustration began to bubble up within her again. Faye was not actually mad about Wilbur helping Sammy. Faye knew that she would never be able to control Wilbur, and she was happy enough that Wilb
Faron chuckled. "It's a very misleading scene to walk into." "Exactly, Miss Yves. Did you consent to this? If you didn't, I can get the authorities involved in this," Elsa said seriously. Wilbur's expression darkened. "Still going, I see." Faye covered her body with Faron's shirt and blushed. "Cut it out, you guys. I'm going to take a shower." She got up and fled at top speed. Elsa snorted. "Yeah, she definitely could use a shower." "Not bad, dude! You must be spent, man," Faron piped up. Wilbur glared at the both of them. "I was using the Marrow Cleansing Pill to channel spirit energy into Faye. What are you two trying to imply?" "Oh, it's nothing. We just thought we'd come to see you since we haven't in a few days. We didn't expect to walk into something so… intense," Elsa giggled. Wilbur's expression was ashen. "Do you need anything? Get lost if you don't." "Nope, nothing needed! We'll be on our way to work, then." Faron turned to leave, whistling playfully. Elsa
The golden hourglass turned over, and there were only ten grace points left in there. The Builder Pill appeared in front of Wilbur. He took one last wistful glance at the Emperor's Whisper and left the demiplane with the pill in his hand. Noticing that it was still early, he took the pill at once and began to meditate. As time passed, Wilbur's body lit up with a myriad of colors as a powerful energy filled his room. The colorful light finally faded during the evening, and Wilbur slowly opened his eyes. Overjoyed, he realized that he had leveled up. After all those years, he was still stuck at the first stage of the Dragon's Chant. He had meditated tirelessly, and with the help of the Builder Pill, he had broken through to the second stage. Wilbur could clearly feel that his Dragon Crystal had doubled in size. That meant that he would be able to store even more spirit energy. On top of that, Wilbur was also able to cast some low to mid-level spells without even mutteri
He understood at last that it was not just an ordinary gathering. Wilbur sat down beside Nancy, glancing at Reggie. "Mister Class President, I thought this was a classmates' gathering. I don't think I know this man here. Was he in our class?" "Oh, the other classmates couldn't make it. This here is Mister Wade Lynch, from Youthful Travel Agency. He happened to have the day off, so I invited him to come. Mister Lynch's travel agency has over ten branches nationwide. It's worth several hundred million dollars! I was lucky enough to be hired as the general manager of the Seechertown branch, so please don't hesitate to hit me up if you're planning any vacations in the future." Reggie was showering him with praise. The other three classmates smiled joyously, chatting away with Mister Lynch. Everyone else was just a regular white-collar worker, and a few hundred million dollars sounded like an astronomical sum to them. Anyone would want to get to know someone like Wade. Nancy cou
Wade's gaze flashed with annoyance, but it was quickly replaced with a smile as he turned to look at Wilbur instead. "What should I call you, sir?" "My last name's Penn," Wilbur said. Wade nodded. "Mister Penn, it's a pleasure to meet you. May I please ask what you do for work?" "I'm unemployed." "Still haven't found a job yet, Wilbur?" Rainie Lark, one of the classmates laughed. Wilbur smiled. "Yeah, not much I could do about it." The other classmates giggled. Although they were not really mocking him, it was clear they did not think much of him at all. Nancy sighed to herself. These girls would lose their minds if they knew who Wilbur really was. Things had been so simple back then. Their friendship used to be so pure. Everyone seemed to have changed ever since entering society, and some people had changed more than Nancy could understand. Just then, Reggie raised his glass and said, "Guys, let's drink to Mister Lynch." The three girls raised their glasses, and
