With Caelum Sword clenched tightly in his hand, Philip walked deeper into the depths of the forest. He would leave a little something for the hunting party. After all, he had to return the favor. Philip already had a plan in mind. With the carcass of the exotic beast here, the hunting party was sure to check on the outcome. However, Philip and Panther were definitely not as familiar with the forbidden abyss compared to that hunting party. He could only wait for the opportunity to take revenge. After all, Philip did not think that they were here just to mess with Panther and him. Although it was a bit dim here, Philip could still see the path, albeit vaguely. He continued to walk forward one step at a time. Without the interference of the hunting party, Philip and Panther did not encounter any beasts, merely a few random insects and such. Philip found this a little odd. They had already reached the depths of the forbidden abyss, so it was impossible for them not to bump in
The man seemed confident when he spoke. After hearing his words, Philip frowned, while Panther looked surprised and uncertain. Although the man’s words might not be completely true, Panther saw with his own eyes how the stone had turned into a blue flame when Philip knocked it down. Philip sneered and said, “Everyone will die? That’s too good for you.” He snorted coldly and approached the man with a scythe. Seeing this, the man with a scythe started feeling a little scared. He was not afraid of Philip but feared setting off that chain explosion he spoke about. If they really fought here, they would die without their bodies intact. Philip forced him into a corner. Suddenly, the scythe in the man’s hand began to change. He shook it lightly and a huge blade appeared. It was just like the Grim Reaper’s scythe. “I’m warning you, kiddo. If you really trigger an explosion, none of us can leave here alive.” Philip narrowed his eyes and chuckled. He did not stop but continued
The man never thought that Philip would charge at him at this moment, which was simply a reckless move. However, Philip did not care at all because he was aware of the other party’s tricks. Philip was already on guard and knew the man must be trying to lure an exotic beast over. Philip’s counter-attack came so fast that the member of the hunting party had no time to react at all. Philip pressed his sword blade across the other party’s neck. “Are you thinking of doing the same old trick by drawing a beast here?” Philip asked. The guy wanted to say something at first, but seeing that Philip had seen through his trick, he had no way to hide it now. Even so, he was unwilling to give up. After being a member of the hunting party in the forbidden abyss for so long, it was impossible for him to walk around here freely if he had no means at all. “Don't think that you can threaten me. You have no idea what I just did. At worst, we’ll die here together.” Philip merely sneered. No
At this time, a woman walked out. Her face was stern with murderous air. Hearing her words, the boss nodded and said, “I’m afraid he’s in trouble.” “Let’s see what’s happening.” The group of six headed in the direction of the devouring beast, but when they arrived, they discovered something astounding. The devouring beast was out of its lair, its round body covered with purple lines. Its jaws were wide open, and Old Siete was hanging right in front of it. Seeing this scene, the six members of the hunting party were dumbfounded. However, no one dared to make a sound for fear of harming Old Siete. The boss of the hunting party looked grave. He could tell that Old Siete was deliberately hung in front of the devouring beast, and someone with such strength was not a person they could deal with. After all, few people could tame the devouring beast. Although the devouring beast seemed to have no other powerful features except for its mouth, everyone in the hunting party kn
Philip spoke to the captain bluntly. No matter what the captain was up to or how dangerous he thought that place was, Philip would not give him the right to refuse. Of course, if they did not care about Old Siete’s life, everything would be naught. “This is no joking matter. The danger there is beyond your imagination, and you can only find the abyss golden beetles after entering the forbidden fortress.” Hearing that, Philip felt that he had to go there. Since there was a forbidden fortress here, someone must have been there before, and his mother’s clues might be hidden inside. Philip said, “You don’t have anything to consider. I want you to take the risk, and I’ll be going with you too.” Hearing that, the captain of the hunting party realized that something must have attracted Philip for him to appear here and want to enter the forbidden fortress in the depths. His mind started racing again. A person who could control the devouring beast in the abyss must be quite pow
Philip felt quite emotional at the sight of this fortress because the style was similar to the fortresses in his original world. However, it looked very old and dilapidated now. Only a small section still retained its complete shape. “We’ve reached the deepest part of the forbidden abyss now. Once we pass through this fortress, we’ll have completely entered the abyss. It’s a passage connecting us to another world, but I don’t think we can use it anymore.” Hearing the captain's explanation, Philip simply nodded. In this place, he could sense a different atmosphere. That should be the abyss passage connected to another world mentioned by the captain. Before they entered this huge fortress, Philip had already sensed from the outside that there should be many powerful exotic abyssal beasts inside. In a flash, he discovered many things inside that constantly sent out danger signals. The hunting party did not seem to receive the signals, but Philip could clearly feel them. Wi
At this moment, everyone from the hunting party followed Philip and rushed into the fortress. Those lizard men gave chase. However, they obviously seemed more frantic now as if they were afraid that Philip and the others would enter the fortress. Seeing this, the hunting party ran faster. Suddenly, a space gate appeared in the sky. Philip narrowed his eyes slightly upon seeing this gate. The captain of the hunting party shouted, “Is there a space mage around?” The so-called space mage was a special profession in the land of the other shore. Space mages were proficient in space magic and powerful practitioners of elemental talents. Almost every space mage was the prime target other forces vied for. As the captain spoke, several people walked out of the space gate. Philip recognized them immediately. One was Young Master Cosby, while the other one was the captain of Draco Corps, but Philip had no idea why they were together. Philip halted. Upon seeing those people
The few people who just tore the beasts apart with their bare hands looked at Philip with hostile eyes. At this time, Philip was a prized merit in their eyes. The captain of Draco Corps added, “Philip, I have to admit that you’re very strong, and I can’t beat you. But the Eight Berserks on the upper floor of the ancient dragon royal family aren’t an existence you can easily deal with either.” Philip was ready to fight with the Caelum Sword in his hand. Philip was not only powerful in elemental talents but had also comprehended the rules of swordsmanship and space long ago. Although he did not know the strength of the Eight Berserks or what was so special about them, Philip felt no fear at all. At this time, the eight people unleashed their overwhelming aura on Philip. Since they were called the Eight Berserks, they must have their own unique traits. However, when Philip was about to attack, he heard a distant voice coming from the fortress. It was a woman's voice, seemi
Anyone with any ideas could only shake their heads helplessly after hearing Philip’s remarks. At the same time, they were amazed by the ring’s function. “Wow, that’s great. The person who made this thing must be a genius!” Cameron clapped his hands excitedly. Of course, he was worried that someone would steal his treasure. After all, owning a treasure was a sin in itself. It was inevitable for others to covet his treasure. It would be bad if they attacked him because of greed. With Philip’s explanation, his trouble would be reduced. “That sounds amazing.” The patriarch of the Lamy family seemed dissatisfied. He had some crooked thoughts too. With their family’s financial resources, they could not buy so many rings, so he planned to steal the other two as well. He was not that stupid to steal from Philip, so he could only set his sights on the other major families. Everyone wanted the rings anyway. As long as he refused to admit it, no one would know that he was guilty.
It was too much to use half of the family's assets and properties in exchange for one storage space. “Are you sure about this? Do you know how much that would cost?” “The Lamy family must be crazy to go all out for this treasure!” Everyone complained helplessly. They might be in trouble if the Lamy family insisted on doing it this way. “I know you guys can’t afford it, so stop wasting your time. The Lamy family has made an offer. If you can up the price, go ahead. Don’t stop us from buying that treasure!” the patriarch of the Lamy family said smugly. He felt that his offer was high enough and no one could afford it, so this thing would definitely belong to him. Even Ronan was surprised by this development. He had heard of the Lamy family before. Ronan had worked for the Lamy family before, but their attitude toward him was the same as that of other families—indifferent and disdainful. Therefore, Ronan had the same bad impression about everyone. The Lamy family was not
Rather than saying that they were unwilling to believe it, it was more likely that they did not dare to believe it. Ronan calmly put the ring aside. “I'm wearing a ring that looks better than the ones you're about to get. Watch this.” After saying that, Ronan demonstrated to everyone what a real storage space could do. Anything he took in his hand vanished and appeared at will, which looked simply amazing. Everyone was jealous at this scene. They stared at Ronan’s hands nervously, trying to see if he was performing a magic trick or showing off the storage ring. After Ronan's many demonstrations, they finally confirmed that Ronan was not lying. Everything was true. Everyone exclaimed in amazement. “Wow, I can’t believe that I really saw a storage space in action!” “It’s amazing!” “I have to get hold of one!” Although Sadie had been dealt a heavy blow, she hid in a corner and observed the situation instead of leaving. She wanted to see how things would develop. When S
“Heh, look at those crazy family patriarchs. They can't wait to suck up to Ronan! Do you think they’ll question the Claude family after hearing about the storage space? They’ll only turn up in person to find out about it! “With so many of them putting pressure on us, what do you think we can do? Now, we may not even get that amazing storage space because there are too many people competing with us!” Cameron was furious and almost passed out in anger because of this stupid woman. Sadie scowled at the yard in disbelief as she realized that the crowd causing the commotion was the patriarchs of the other major families. She thought that they were servants sent by the families, but everything was different from what she imagined. “How did this happen? I planned everything perfectly. We just need to throw the wool over their eyes. Things shouldn't have turned out like this!” Sadie almost had a mental breakdown at this bad news. “No way. This is impossible…” Seeing the family
“Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. I want to claim the credit for what I’ve done!” Sadie quickly turned and left. The butler wanted to stop her, but she vanished before he could say anything. In the end, he remained silent. “The plan really backfired on her. Unfortunately, she can only blame it on her bad luck.” The butler knew the situation the family was facing now. Their residence would probably be turned upside down. The Claude family could have owned a storage space, but everything was ruined now. Not only would they fail to get one, but others would also humiliate them! Sadie quickly arrived at the yard and rolled her eyes at the crowd. “Dad, over here!” Sadie beckoned her father excitedly as if she had great news for him. Cameron was very anxious at this point and wished he could find a solution. When Sadie called him, he thought his solution had appeared. He rushed over and looked at Sadie curiously. “What’s up? Is there any good news?” He was very excited
Everyone was excited to hear that Ronan had those legendary items. It was great. “Our family has to get one!” The patriarch of the Lamy family was the most excited. The members of this family had always been strong-headed and were determined to get it. The other families were unhappy to hear that. They were not that bad either, so they were annoyed by that high-handed remark. “All the major families are powerful in our own rights. I think there’s no need to conclude so quickly.” “I agree. I’m afraid you’ll hide and cry if you fail to get one. That'll be embarrassing.” “Even the major families are not confident about this. Who do you think you are to get it?” Everyone targeted the swell-headed Lamy family even though they were indeed big and powerful enough to steal the treasure from them. The Claude family was the most excited yet regretful. Instead of feeling happy that the families were bickering with each other, they were worried. Although the families were fighting
Besides, Philip mentioned that he would help Ronan make a name for himself. The storage rings that Philip provided were quite meager, with only 30 to 70 cubic feet of storage space each. However, that did not stop Ronan from admiring Philip. He knew that Philip had various treasures, but he was willing to share them with Ronan, which was too generous for words. To prevent Ronan from getting the short end of the stick, Philip also provided some common things for doing business. Due to this, Ronan wanted to serve Philip. In their world, the best way to express gratitude was to acknowledge the other party as their master. It was not only to seize the opportunity but also to find a good roof over their head. Thinking of this, Ronan did not dare to call Philip his brother anymore. Ronan decided to approach Philip at night and find a way to acknowledge him as his master so that he could serve Philip wholeheartedly. Philip had no idea about Ronan’s thoughts. He was still think
Everything Rabbit owned, including the storage space and various treasures, was given by Philip. So, Rabbit could come up with some amazing things for these people to please him. Rabbit felt very proud of this accomplishment. “Ahem, everyone, follow me! I know you’re eager to see Philip, but you have to follow the rules. Don't be as rude as the Claude family!” Rabbit said calmly. He was very unhappy with the Claude family. Hearing that, members of the Claude family were livid. They were shocked by Rabbit's words. He was deliberately putting them down! Those remarks were likely to affect their status among the major families. That off-handed tone might cause other major families to reject them. “I’m surprised that this family would be so arrogant and disrespect you!” “How could they treat that precious storage space so carelessly? I say, those people are too bold to disregard such a valuable treasure!” “This family is stupid and arrogant. Let's ignore them to avoid any ass
However, Cameron and his people were arrogant enough to lock Philip up. How dare they?! “Cameron, you went too far!” “I never knew that the Claude family were such people. I really misjudged you before. You’re really too much for treating such an amazing person that way.” Everyone pretended to be angry and kept speaking up for Philip, trying to please Rabbit and indirectly please Philip. Cameron was startled by Rabbit’s words, which easily landed him in trouble. “No, that's not exactly the case. I didn't lock Philip up but gave him a place to stay. How would I dare to lock up such a powerful person? You really think too highly of me.” However, Cameron’s explanation was useless. Everyone believed that Cameron locked Philip up on purpose, so they wanted to get him into trouble. Whether Cameron locked Philip up or treated Philip as a valuable guest, they wanted to ruin Cameron’s reputation. Once they got rid of Cameron, they could focus on pleasing Philip. “You must be
