However, Fane had once again shown Rudy that all those worries were pointless with the skills he possessed. He smiled as he grabbed the golden token in Fane's hand, turned around, and displayed it in front of everyone, "What do you think? Do you have anything else to say now?" As he said that, he walked toward Gent who had been the one with the most to say earlier. He placed the golden token in his palm, looked right at Gent and said, "Didn't you say that Fane could never manage to get a golden token? Then what's this in my hand? Is everyone hallucinating?" Gent was about to spit out blood at those words. It had completely ripped apart his earlier arrogance. He had thought that, even if Fane was talented, Fane would only be around his level.Yet, he realized that he was greatly mistaken. No wonder Fane had always looked at them with that attitude previously. Fane had never regarded them seriously.Gent's lips twitched, not saying anything. In truth, compared to the others, Gent w
Looking at everyone's crazed expressions, Fane knew that it would be taken as a silent acknowledgment if he remained silent. Fane did not think much about it, it was up to them what they wanted to think.However, he felt that he would end up becoming a lab rat to major forces if he remained quiet. If they wanted to dig out his secrets and did something to him, then it would be disastrous. Fane took a deep breath and looked at everyone there, "Please stop those idiotic thoughts in your heads. Don't just place random judgments on anyone you want."Don't use your limited brains to judge the whole Hestia Continent. There are many like me in Hestia Continent, you just haven't met them before!"Samuel frowned, pausing for a moment before shaking his head vigorously, "There's no way! There's no way someone like you can appear in Hestia Continent, who's so extraordinarily strong in both alchemy and combat. You're not like someone from Hestia Continent at all."Fane frowned, suddenly feel
Otherwise, he would not have abandoned the other seventh-level cities to come here. Faced with an alchemist who would definitely achieve a lot in the future, he would naturally try his best to curry some favor. After all, those alchemists would definitely be of great help in the future.Fane raised an eyebrow. Since that person was so understanding, it saved him a lot of time. He could not be bothered to dwell on what happened before. He nodded at the white-robed man and handed the golden token in his hand.Everything after that went smoothly. Those alchemists that were trying to cause trouble earlier had all completely shrank back. They no longer dared to do anything to Fane. However, Fane knew that it was just a temporary silence. After all, their grudges were still there.The inner city's entrance was at the most internal spot of the outer city. At noon on the sixth day, Fane brought Rudy to the inner city's entrance. It was a massive circular passage.The passage was obscured b
The handsome man wanted to say something in response, but could not find anything to say after a long time. The news really had been broadcasted a while ago. All the alchemists that came from major clans had all already rushed over.Anyone who could help had already done the best they could. After all, it was an incredibly important event. Those who were in the top three would get incredible amounts of resources.The black-robed man frowned as he patted the handsome guy on the arm somewhat dejectedly, "I know it's hard, and I know you don't want to just let it go, but you might end up becoming a joke if you make a mess of things."I'm not trying to insult you. There are so many people and so many excellent alchemists. Your skills are only average among them. What can you do even if you take part? You'd just be making up the numbers."If any accidents happen, you might very well end up being targeted. Just look at how everyone is acting inside…"The handsome guy said resolutely, "I
The black-robed man asked, "The two of you arrived at Prosper City by yourselves?"Fane immediately understood what the black-robed man was thinking. After all, they would have had to pass the test of an eighth-level city to arrive at Prosper City. Before that, they would have to get past a ninth-level city. It was impossible for alchemists to reach this place alone.They had to have strong warriors protecting them. The two of them had also only reached this place thanks to the protection of others.Fane coughed before finding a reason, "We separated from the others after coming out of the eighth level city…"The black-robed man frowned, "So that's what happened. No wonder you don't know anything. The news is already out. As long as you're not a wandering warrior, you should have already received the news."After saying that, the black-robed man measured them with even more suspicion. Fane was starting to get a bit confused at that point since Aaron was nowhere near as suspicious
"Compared to the two other worlds, Hestia Continent is way too bad! It's the seventh group today. If you want to take part, there are only five spots left! "The mood is not the greatest at the moment. The six earlier groups had performed poorly. Not only did they lose badly, but they were also mocked terribly by the alchemists from the other worlds as well. The alchemists on our side aren't really treating the contestants that well either."Everyone feels like they're not good enough, and won't get good results if they join, so all of them became cowards. No one is willing to participate…"Fane was confused as he listened on. He asked doubtfully, "Which continents are we competing against? What are bronze and black treasures?"Aaron slapped his forehead, "I forgot that you just got here and don't know anything. Whatever, you should be planning on entering as well, right? If that's the case, let's talk as we walk."After that, Aaron motioned to the black-robed man saying that he w
Fane had been far too quiet, but Aaron did not seem to mind. Just by listening to their conversations, Fane slowly understood. The various rules after entering the inner city were making the Whirling World more and more interesting.The inner city was actually an immense palace. There were already over ten thousand alchemists gathered there. The center of the inner city had a massive array that was about a hundred feet in length.The array was called the Heaven Array. It was an ancient array that had already been lost to the Hestia Continent. The alchemists gathered in the inner city all sat around the array.Aaron raised an eyebrow and said, "The ones who are sitting in the innermost circle are the alchemists with incredible backgrounds and amazing skills. The one at the center is Rudeus from the Scarlet Pavilion. "The one right in front of him is Mitchell Turner from Phoenix Valley. The two are said to possess the same level of skills. Before entering this tournament, their name
Rudy whispered into Fane's ears, "Why does this place feel like a funeral?" Fane could not stop himself from letting out a laugh. He looked up at everyone, and it really did feel like it was a funeral.Everyone was incredibly sullen and miserable. Everyone was in incredible pain. Aaron smiled as he whispered, "I don't think that this is a funeral at all."Rudy raised an eyebrow and said, "Then what is it?"Aaron coughed and said seriously, "It's like all of them ate a bucket of crap."The three of them let out slight laughs. After a moment, Aaron continued, "I think that the reason they're suffering so much isn't that the other worlds are too strong or that they are too weak, and that they dragged Hestia Continent down. It's just because all of them have been shouted at by Rudeus."Fane raised an eyebrow, "They were shouted at by Rudeus? Is he allowed to do that? Even with his status, surely the alchemists here are all no regular alchemists? Middle Province isn't owned by Scarle
There was a heavy rumbling as the door slowly opened. A boundless sense of energy seemed to come from it.A few of them looked inside. Other than the green light, they could see nothing. The light completely obscured their sight. If they wanted to look inside, they would have to step in themselves.On the way there, Fane had already talked to Lourain about it. Lourain wanted to see what the legendary Valley of Enlightenment was like. That was why Fane asked for two spots.The three of them exchanged looks with each other, and they did not hesitate to step forward together, entering the door.The power of distorting space suddenly pulled the three of them in. The space around them started to spin rapidly. They did not know how much time passed, but it felt like a whole century before the space slowed down in front of them. Then, the sense of weightlessness disappeared as their feet landed on solid ground.The three of them had not been sent to different locations and arrived at the
Zayne scoffed, "Alright then, how do you want to work together?"He wanted to see what Fane was trying to do.Fane did not waste any time, "Both of us have all three keys, and we can open the door. Ten people can enter the door anyway. I just need two of those spots.Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, "You sure know quite a bit."Fane even knew that only ten people would be allowed through. He seemed to have done his homework.Zayne took out his purple key from his storage ring. At that moment, all three keys were there. As long as all the keys were placed together, the gateway to the Valley of Enlightenment would open."If you only need two spots, then I don't mind working with you," Zayne looked at Fane meaningfully, but he quickly added, "However, make sure you don't cause any trouble during the important moments."Fane smiled before he said, "I've always been someone who keeps to my word. I'm more worried that you'll cause me trouble instead. There are many geniuses in the V
The two of them knew what that meant. Their eyes met, and worry was evident in their eyes."Is it Fane again?" Zayne said with a frown. At that moment, the first name that popped up in his head was Fane.Only Fane would truly be a big problem for them. Seymour's expression turned sour. He suddenly felt like Fane seemed to be his Achilles heel. Fane could pop out at any time and put him in a difficult spot."That's right! It's me!" At that moment, a voice was heard from afar. The two of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw five figures appearing in the air.This time, Fane did not have a disguise on. He was facing everyone with his real face."It really is you!" Zayne's face completely soured at that moment. Even if they were meeting for the first time, he was already incredibly sensitive to Fane's name.Nothing good ever happened when Fane was mentioned and Fane had actually appeared in front of him."How dare you!" Seymour shouted angrily!He walked forward to sta
When Shin and the others saw that, they were speechless. That person who had looked down on them was completely bound and on the ground at that moment. He looked pathetic.Fane quickly walked toward Warren, reaching out to pull off the mask to reveal his face.Fane controlled his energy, reducing the destructive power in Warren's soul. After the pain diminished, Warren slowly woke up.He looked up and saw the one person he never wanted to see in his life. He lost his voice as he said, "Fane?! It's you!" He almost bit his tongue as he spoke.Fane smiled and nodded slightly, "Yes. It’s me.""No wonder, so it's you! Where's Presti then?" Warren looked up and said.Fane raised an eyebrow and shot an incredulous look at Warren. Warren immediately understood what happened, and his whole face turned pale, "He's dead!"Fane nodded. There was nothing much to hide. Warren gulped, suddenly feeling like his thoughts from earlier were an absolute joke at that moment. He had even been think
After seeing that, there was a surprised look on Warren's face. However, he quickly pushed back that surprise. Even if that man was skilled, he would just be an above-average warrior. Above-average warriors were like paper to him!"Brat, it looks like you have some skill. However, that means nothing in front of me. I'll show you right now what a warrior at the peak is!"Right after he said that, he circulated his true energy around his feet. Red energy started to frantically blow away the dust on the ground. He lunged into the air incredibly fast.Fane raised an eyebrow before he started to form seals with his hands. Countless seals danced around in the air, and a chain appeared.That chain looked like a black dragon as it danced in the air.Warren scoffed in disdain. It was just a petty trick from an above-average warrior in his eyes. That chain would shatter in just one blow.He did not even bother thinking about it as he raised the sword in his hand. A silver ray of light quic
He leaped forward and landed in front of those four. Fane had already noticed Warren a while ago, but Fane relaxed when he saw Warren was alone. If it was just one person, then there was nothing to worry about!"Presti really is a piece of trash. He couldn't even get you!" Warren said with a sneer.Shin clutched his chest and turned to look at Cavill next to him. Cavill nodded slightly and did not say anything. The two of them shut their mouths at the same time as they looked in Fane's direction.Warren immediately felt something was wrong. He turned to look at Fane and saw that Fane was still completely calm as if nothing had happened."Brat, it looks like you're no ordinary person!" Warren said with a sneer.Fane turned to look at him before saying calmly, "Are you here to kill us?"Warren laughed out loud, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What do you think I'm doing here? Do I look like I'm here to chat?"Fane laughed. He could not believe another one turned up so soon aft
When Warren heard that, he felt incredibly exasperated. He mumbled, "It's just Shin, how could there be any trouble? Even if he has some fellow disciples with him, Presti is more than enough. They're all trash anyway."Zayne frowned, and he unleashed an incredibly strong aura that forced Warren to take a step back, "Shut up! Do you think we can afford to be careless right now? We're at the cusp of accomplishing everything right now. We have to be extremely careful. What kind of attitude is this?"Warren immediately shut up and did not dare to say anything. Zayne coldly looked at Warren, and deeply felt like Warren was not someone who could accomplish much. If it was not for the fact that he was useful, Zayne would not even bother bringing Warren through the door with him.Seymour turned to look into the distance. Gray mist filled up the skies, and no one could see the end of the horizon.There was nothing in the skies, and Seymour suddenly started to feel some worry. He was not clo
In front of an ancient stone door, two men were standing there, while another was sitting down and resting.The men who were standing had very stiff expressions on their faces. The two of them looked at each other with animosity in their eyes. It was obvious they were not friendly with each other. The man who was sitting down had his eyes shut and completely ignored the other two."Seymour! You're just the same as Desmond. You can't even get something so simple done. Desmond lost his life. I think you're about to follow suit!" Warren sneered as he mocked.Seymour's expression was dark, and he shot right back, "Warren, stop with those disgusting words of yours! Don't think I don't know what you're trying to do. You're just trying to push me down and take all the credit for yourself!"Stop joking around! You aren't smart enough to steal my credit! Even though Desmond is already dead, he still did the best he could. He was just tricked by Fane. If it was you, you wouldn't even have
Fane frowned. After he reached out to grab Presti's neck, Presti's life ended with a crack.Shin's eyes widened as he looked at Fane with fear. His savior could very well kill him!Cavill started to panic as well. He looked at Fane with alarm. Even though he was thankful that Fane saved the two of them just now, he had no way to tell what Fane would do after this. Fane slowly walked in front of them, and he did not show much emotion on his face.Cavill said in a dry voice, "Fane, you…?"Fane shook his head, "Don't panic. I won't kill you. Let's work together. It's not like only one person will be able to enter after the door opens."Shin looked at Fane with an incredibly inquisitive look. He thought about it before he said, "I… I don't want to work together. I'll give you the key as thanks for saving me. That Valley of Enlightenment doesn't sound like a good place at all. If I enter, I don't even know if I'll be able to survive."As he spoke, Shin had a bitter look on his face.
