The so-called abyss golden beetles came from the forbidden abyss. Their bodies were only about two meters long, but they were covered with a layer of special material, making them harder than an alloy. No one could deal with them, and they were also immune to all elements. Even level-5S elemental practitioners could do nothing to them at all. They could only rely on physical strength or attacks to crush them before they could kill them. Hearing Panther’s explanation, Philip merely nodded. At this time, the two alpine beasts were almost dying as they fell to the ground. Their strength was on par, so both parties suffered injuries during a confrontation. Philip saw the staff taking the two beasts away. The host turned his attention to Philip and Panther in the arena. “Two warriors, for your back-to-back challenge, the coliseum will offer two special treasures as your reward. If you can defeat the abyss golden beetle, the fire element equipment and the two special treasures
As the sword in Philip's hand flashed, the black substance on the beetle dispersed. A crack also appeared on the beetle’s body. It was caused by this sword light. Panther was extremely shocked, hardly believing his eyes. However, it did happen in front of his eyes. The abyss golden beetle being injured by Philip's sword not only caught Panther by surprise but also the host of the coliseum and the real boss. This was an abyss golden beetle from the forbidden abyss. These beetles were said to be invincible in defense and were also one of the rarest top contenders of the coliseum. However, the beetle’s defense was so easily broken by a sword. It injured the beetle with seemingly just one strike. Seeing the sword’s success, Philip charged at the beetle again without hesitation. No one expected the beetle to be so powerless under Philip’s sword. It was almost fragile to a certain extent. However, Philip’s target was not just to kill the abyss golden beetle but to uncover
Philip frowned. “Can you tell me more about that? Where did this holy-tier being come from?” Panther said, “I heard that the place is called the Land of the Sinned Blood. Of course, some people also say that the people in that place created the Starfall Continent, or rather, all the people here emigrated from that place.” Hearing that, Philip realized that Panther was talking about his original world! Someone came from that place to the land of the shore and was a holy-tier being! A powerhouse of the other shore! Was it possible that this holy-tier being was Philip’s mother? With that thought in mind, Philip also became a little curious about the so-called forbidden abyss. Although rumors could not be fully trusted, there must be some reason for them. “Do you know where the forbidden abyss is?” Philip asked Panther. Hearing Philip's question, Panther's face immediately changed. He said, “Boss, don’t tell me you want to go to the forbidden abyss?” Without looking at
“What do you mean by this?” Philip asked that person coldly. He did not expect his teammates on the lower floor to be captured by this guy so quickly right after the coliseum had just been wrecked. However, right after he said this, Philip realized something. Since the other party could find his teammates so precisely, he must have planned to deal with him long ago. Philip promptly figured it out. After he dealt with Mr. Cusack, he must have been targeted by various forces on the middle floor. “My meaning is very simple. Since you killed my abyss golden beetle in the coliseum, you can go to the forbidden abyss and catch another one for me.” Although the young man said so, Philip knew that if he did not obey his wishes, Leopard and the others would be harmed. At this time, Panther said loudly, “The forbidden abyss has been activated, and the abyss golden beetle has been resurrected, so why should we catch another one for you?” A sneer appeared on the young man's face. “W
Of course, Philip and Panther saw this through the exit of the underground city. The middle floor also had other exits that did not just lead to the lower floor. At this time, the man said to the two, “This is the forbidden abyss. You can go in now.” After speaking, he was about to push them inside without waiting for them to react. However, Philip glared at him and said, “Since I promised Young Master Cosby, I’ll naturally do my part. You don’t have to treat us like this.” While speaking, Philip observed this man's expression. He wanted to make sure that the person who made things difficult for them was Young Master Cosby. Looking at the calm expression on this person’s face, Philip confirmed it. After all, problems had to be solved at the root. Philip had to take revenge on anyone who dared to lay a hand on his teammates. So what if Young Master Cosby was the strongest force on the middle floor? Philip walked out with Panther. It was the so-called the forbidden abyss
As soon as Panther finished talking, Philip felt as if someone was watching them. He winked at Panther and pulled out a gun from his pocket. He bought this for self-defense. In fact, based on Philip’s strength, such external tools had no effect on him. Apart from the exotic beasts in the abyss, only the hunting team that Panther mentioned could be the one watching them from afar. Thus, Philip quietly took out his gun without any hesitation, turned around, and fired in the direction where he felt someone was staring at him. In this world, this type of gun did not produce much noise. After Philip fired, he suddenly heard a whistle. This sharp whistle seemed to be some kind of signal, and a group of people surrounded him in a flash. There were seven or eight people equipped with unique equipment that Philip had never seen before and some glinting weapons. Philip immediately knew they were not easy to deal with. “Look what we found. A hunting party of two?” One of th
To the other guy’s surprise, the dagger in his hand suddenly fell into Philip's hand. Seeing this, the others stood on guard and quickly made defensive postures. “Who the hell are you, kiddo?” No ordinary person could snatch the dagger from that man’s hand. The members of this hunting party knew this person's strength best. With six-star strength plus elemental talents, this guy was considered above average even within their team. Hence, Philip’s action of snatching his dagger so quietly caught them by surprise. After toying with the dagger for a while, Philip said, “My friend has already told you very clearly just now that we’re here at Young Master Cosby’s request, so our business shouldn’t interfere with yours. “Otherwise, this dagger will be your outcome.” As Philip spoke, the knife shattered and fell to the ground with a loud clatter. “Let’s stop wasting our breath and just kill this kid. How dare he speak to us that way?” The person whose dagger was taken away
Seeing this, Philip realized what these people did and what their purpose was. After the member of the hunting party with the scythe left, Philip saw the unknown exotic beast writhing above his head. Before this, it was sprawled above quietly, but because its tentacles were cut off now, it started writhing. Philip also found that the severed tentacles were slowly growing back. In the dim environment, a pair of blood-red eyes stared at him and Panther. Philip quickly realized that they wanted to use the abyssal creature to kill him and Panther. Philip's eyes turned cold. The huge, exotic abyssal beast landed on the ground and swung its tentacles at the surrounding trees, producing muffled echoes. Obviously, this beast viewed Philip and Panther as enemies and targets. Panther cursed aloud. He did not expect this hunting party to be so despicable. Although there was no direct conflict between them, they used such underhanded means to deal with Philip and him. “What d
“Philip's strength mostly comes from his very powerful pet rabbit. Although it's a monster beast, it's a force to be reckoned with. It isn't something anyone can deal with,” Hogster said with lingering fear. He could not forget how Rabbit had beaten Alain to a pulp. “Yes, the rabbit is a force to be reckoned with. You'd better not mess with it for no reason. I really wonder where such a powerful monster beast came from.” Alain seemed very steadfast, but he was already having a mental meltdown. However, he did not want to embarrass himself in public, so he gritted his teeth and hung on. The hooded man looked at Alain and sneered inwardly. He took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to him. “Take this or I’m afraid you’ll collapse soon.” He could notice Alain’s condition at a glance and knew he would not last long. “Forget it. I won’t hide it from you. In fact, the rabbit inflicted all these injuries on me. I wouldn’t be in this miserable state if the rabbit weren’t that
Although the strength of the test subject had increased, he was not highly valued at all because his talent was not affected and did not meet the guild’s requirements. “Okay, you may leave now. Your strength has improved, so make sure to practice hard and don’t let us down,” Alain said grandly, sending the other party away. He knew that this person was nothing but a loser. The guild member who was the test subject had no idea how pathetic he was. Instead, he looked at Alain with excitement and gratitude. Hogster swallowed the potion without hesitation. He quickly felt the changes in his body as if he had become very powerful in just a few seconds. Hogster looked at the hooded man in surprise. He never thought that he could become so strong. “Wow, this is amazing!” Hogster was shocked by this unexpected outcome. His lack of self-esteem was quickly replaced with brimming confidence, and he even had the urge to mess with Philip. In his opinion, Philip was nothing special. Now
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm. That thing is quite good.” The silly member took the potion nervously and looked at Alain expectantly. “Sir, I think I’m getting stronger!” The silly guy showed off his strength excitedly. Alain stepped forward and examined the guild member curiously. Sure enough, his strength had increased. Alain found the increase in strength quite incredible. Moreover, he did not find any side effects on the other party, which was the most surprising. This potion was amazing beyond anyone’s imagination! Alain was very excited and wished he could take it too. “I believe you should know the value of this potion. Just win the competition and stop worrying about the rest.” Alain and the hooded man stepped aside to discuss offering the boys and girls. Hogster was taken aback to hear them. The two quickly reached an agreement as they knew how unethical this transaction was. “Father, you actually agreed to his request! Aren't you afraid that it’ll be expose
By taking the potion, a person could increase their overall strength, and there would be no side effects. It was a miracle potion, indeed. Alain was stunned to hear that. He felt that the hooded man was bragging. How could there be such an amazing potion? “Are you serious? It can’t be that simple.” Alain took the potion from the other party and sized it up, wondering if he should trust this thing. “If you don't believe it, you can give it a try. I don’t mind. You have many people under your command anyway. You can choose to use them as a test subject.” The hooded man was quite cold and aloof in both his actions and speech. Alain nervously clenched the potion tightly. “In that case, I’ll give it a try. Let me find someone.” Alain did not fully trust the hooded man’s words. In his opinion, it was better to play it safe. Who knew if anything would happen? He was nervous about giving something like this to his precious son. At this time, a guild member who was not highly valu
“I won’t be joining your guild, but I don’t mind being a spectator. At least I can watch the fun. I know that you’re quite strong, so you don’t need me. As long as nothing unexpected happens, I don’t think you’ll face a problem.” Philip smiled indifferently, quite confident that nothing much would happen. The overall strength of the Celestial Palace had improved significantly, so they really had nothing to worry about. Jamie was relieved to hear that. In that case, he could rest assured.… The guild competition officially kicked off, and everyone was ready to battle it out. The battles were not something that simply required strength to resolve. Occasionally, the competitors required tactics too. As Alain was feeling anxious, his reinforcement finally arrived at the scene. The hooded man turned up with some potions, ready to carry out his task. “Hey, you’re finally here. I thought I wouldn’t see you again.” Alain was worried. He knew that he was in a precarious situati
“Father, what happened to you? Don’t scare me!” Hogster sat by Alain’s bedside and asked in a panic. Hogster would not have been worried about Alain in the past, but things were different now. They were facing various crises. Without his father to take care of things, they would be doomed. Alain coughed violently and fumbled around for some healing pills before stuffing them into his mouth. The pills were not useful for his injuries but could at least relieve his pain. After Alain took the pills, Hogster hugged him excitedly. “This is great! I thought you were about to drop dead.” Alain almost died in anger over his son’s remark. “Hogster, you have to take part in the competition on behalf of the guild. This is the best chance for you to become stronger. You’ll make a name for yourself if you do this.” Alain held Hogster's hand and placed all his hopes on him. Hearing that, Hogster said awkwardly, “Father, although I’m quite strong, you can’t do this to me! How am I suppose
The rabbit had a very expressive face as if it was watching Alain make a fool of himself. “You’re quite the smooth talker. If you have more words of encouragement, let’s hear them.” Hay dangled from Rabbit's mouth, and he seemed disdainful. Alain seemed conflicted at the sight of Rabbit and felt like he was looking at Philip instead. “Why are you here?” This rabbit was weird, and no one could control it. As far as Alain knew, the rabbit was famous in major cities and good at picking fights. “Of course, I’m here to teach you a lesson. Do you think I traveled this far to buy you a meal?” After saying this, Rabbit jumped up and kicked Alain, who started spitting mouthfuls of blood. Alain was strong in his own right, so there was no way he would be helpless against an attack. However, he simply could not resist Rabbit and could only suffer a beating. The guild members in the surroundings closed their eyes, feeling sorry for their guild leader. No one thought they could win th
It seemed that Alain had overestimated his importance. “Hey, wait a minute. Don't be so hasty. I just want to think about how to make things better. You should know that things are not as simple as you think. If I agree so easily, others might target me.” The hooded man sneered inwardly at Alain’s flattering appearance. He knew that Alain was probably trying to bargain with him. “I thought you wouldn’t consider it, but you seem quite willing to work with us.” The hooded man smiled calmly as if mocking Alain from the bottom of his heart. Although Alain was being ridiculed, he could not say a word. The hooded man held the reins, so Alain had no choice but to obey. “I don’t mind this cooperation, but we need to plan this thoroughly. If you can help my guild to make a comeback in this competition, I can agree to your condition. Since you found me, you should know the trouble my guild is facing right now. Philip and his people are messing with us, and the Celestial Palace is keepi
Alain was a smart man and quickly grasped the key point. It seemed that this man was here to help him. “Tell me what you want. Stop wasting my time. If you’re here to help me, let’s have an open discussion.” Alain was no longer nervous and stared at the other party calmly. Hearing that, the hooded man smiled smugly. “I know that your guild is facing a crisis. I can help you with that. I can get rid of all your problems and also ensure that your guild scores victory. Although I can't guarantee that you’ll win the championship, taking one of the top spots won’t be a problem.” The hooded man spoke calmly as if he was confident that Alain would agree. Sure enough, Alain was expectant to hear this man’s offer to help him. At a moment of crisis, it was every man for himself. Right now, no one was willing to help him or lend a helping hand. Alain thought that this was too much of a coincidence. “There’s no such thing as a free lunch. What do you want in return?” Alain knew that
