“Greenpeak Sword Formation!” Philip smashed the sword formation down violently and even tossed the Caelum Sword into it. Leroy stood in the middle of the sword formation and resisted the sharp attacks, but these hundred swords left him no room to dodge at all. The green swords formed by the Greenpeak Sword Formation could only cut through his skin while the Caelum Sword concealed within kept attacking Leroy's vital points and weak points, so the Caelum Sword managed to cause some considerable damage. Seeing the increasing wounds on the holy son’s body, the people of the Moon Worship Creed yelled as they rushed toward Philip. “Everyone back down!” With blood trickling from his mouth, Leroy ordered them back, “This fight is between the two of us.” They stopped not far from Philip. Leroy gradually slowed down, and Philip was almost exhausted from supporting the Greenpeak Sword Formation. The strength suppression seal produced by the flying snake suddenly dispersed. Five
The wounds on Philip’s body sizzled with white smoke and disappeared after a while. His sunken chest also puffed up and returned to normal. “What the hell is this?!” Seeing this, Leroy's heart trembled, and he began to panic. He promptly kicked Philip's head, but this time, Philip made a move and raised his hand to grab Leroy's foot. Philip slowly opened his eyes, and his eyeballs turned orange like the sun, scorching people's hearts and souls. “Let go of me!” Leroy’s foot was deformed under Philip’s grab. However, Philip’s change was far from over. His body began to swell and grow bigger, nearly reaching the top of the cave, which was about 40 to 50 meters high. No one had ever seen anything so horrifying, and they fled in all directions. Philip took one step and the earth shook. Almost every one of the Moon Worship Creed died under this attack except for the five red crescents. They still had a little loyalty to the creed and attacked Philip with their individual mo
At this time, Ayana Wisteria slumped to the floor sadly, and people from other groups whispered, “There, that woman is the third princess of the White Marsh royal family. She and the holy son of the Moon Worship Creed are childhood sweethearts. They were engaged to be married!” “Is that so?” “But why did someone say that the Moon Worship Creed is a cult just now? And what has it got to do with the White Marsh royal family?” That person continued, “Every year, the Moon Worship Creed selects newborns from the information database and trains them. At a certain age, those kids will be put together to kill each other, and the last one who survives will have the chance to become the holy son.” “What savages!” “Will their family members agree to such brutality?” The man shook his head and said, “Those who agree will be given compensation. I have a distant relative who disagreed, which ended up in the deaths of the couple while their kid was taken away.” After that, a bout of cur
Philip chuckled and said to the Bamboo Swordsman, “Sure enough, like master, like sword spirit. Bamboo Shoot thinks that he’s not good enough, while you share the same thought. As a sword practitioner, you should have full confidence in yourself. Otherwise, how could you wield a sword?” “Bamboo Shoot thought you left without leaving a remnant of your soul. He was very excited when he heard that we had seen you,” Hiram added. The Bamboo Swordsman patted the shoulders of the two and said with a smile, “I’ve received his heartfelt words. Thanks, both of you.” “After this place closes, I’ll return to that stone house and live there in peace. I haven't had that tea for a long time.” After that, the Bamboo Swordsman looked at ease as if he was already sitting at the table in the stone house, drinking the tea made by Bamboo Shoot. Philip asked, “I wonder how we can get out. These passages are so complicated.” “Don’t worry. This place is only open for five days. When the time is up
Almost at the same time, a light portal similar to the one they saw when they selected a passage back then appeared on the wall of this room. The two said goodbye to the Bamboo Swordsman and walked out through the portal. “I should go back and look for Bamboo Shoot too.” After saying that, the Bamboo Swordsman turned into a wisp of white smoke and floated out. It was the same huge passage that they entered before, and countless light portals opened or closed behind them. Philip said to Hiram, “Hiram, I’m leaving.” “Are you in a hurry?” Hiram asked. “Yeah, it’s better to avoid unnecessary trouble. I hope you see you again.” As Philip gradually disappeared from his sight, Hiram murmured, “I forgot to exchange numbers with Carter.” Seeing more people coming out of the portals, Hiram rushed back to camp. All the surviving people came out from the portals, and the people from the ancient dragon royal family rushed over to gather the crowd. However, after a while of scree
The cab driver looked at Philip in surprise but did not say anything. He immediately started the hover cab and sped through the air. Philip, who was sitting in the back row, took out his communicator and sent a message to Emily, Iris, and Leopard, telling them that he had left the territory of the ancient dragon and hoped they would meet again in the future. He had no idea if they could receive this message. After sending this message, Philip shut down the communicator and threw it into the space ring. Glancing at the densely packed tall metallic buildings outside the window, as well as the neon signboards that were not very bright in daylight, Philip sighed. If this trip went well, maybe he could see them again before the next stargate opened, but if the time was insufficient, it could be regarded as the last farewell. The cab stopped in an old town southeast of the city. “The fare is 130 star dollars.” Philip took out a communicator he had gotten from a member of the Mo
The man took Philip into the elevator, pressed a few buttons, and the elevator went to the second-floor basement which was not displayed. This place was like a small processing factory. The boss took Philip to the deepest part and said to a skinny man wearing glasses, “Make him a communicator.” The man rummaged through the drawer, found a communicator that looked fairly new, and said to Philip, “Fill in your information.” Philip stepped forward and briefly input his data without concealing too much. After the information was entered, the man entered the information database and put Philip's information in it. “It’s done.” The man handed the communicator to Philip. The boss did not try to keep Philip but wanted to exchange communicator numbers with Philip, which he refused. He said, “If you need anything else in the future, you can come to me again.” Philip nodded and left. He was only stopping by in this White Marsh territory, which he had to pass through if he wanted
For some reason, whenever Philip heard of a woman who appeared suddenly, he would think of his mother. When the man was about to continue, his wife called for his help in the kitchen. The man smiled apologetically and said, “I’m sorry. If you really want to know about the Moon Worship Creed, you might as well go to the capital to have a look.” The man left after that. Philip bought an electronic map in a store. The store manager said it was the most detailed map of White Marsh, but Philip did not believe him. He opened the map and studied it. The capital of the Eighth Continent was on the way for Philip, so he could go and explore that place. Philip learned from a billboard that a new type of hover car was being sold, so he headed there. This car showroom was very spacious with three models parked in the huge space, a streamlined two-seater sports car, a four-seater sedan, and a spacious MPV. “Do you have an appointment, sir?” An enthusiastic sales lady stepped forwar
