Finally, when he returned to his senses, he realized that the old man had led him to a dark room. There were no lamps in this room, but the walls were full of torches, mysterious and ancient looking. Philip’s mind cleared at this time. He looked around before he asked the old man in front of him, “What’s the meaning of this?” The old man smiled and said to Philip, “This is where you’ll receive the ancient powerful being’s heritage. I’m only responsible for bringing you here. The rest is up to you.” After he finished speaking, he disappeared. Although Philip was still a little puzzled at this scene, he immediately discovered that those torches emitted a strange power. This power was similar to the tower he had seen in the Devil's Courtyard before, and even the strange energy fluctuations were the same. However, this strange power was draining Philip’s energy this time. Not only did Philip feel that his energy was being drained, but even the various elements in his body w
As Philip accepted the heritage of the ancient powerful being, the people of the ancient Heavenly Court were unaware of it. The heavenly general sat on his chair, surrounded by his people. The fleets of the ancient Heavenly Court circled the area in constant vigilance, and the troops on land were not spared either. It was all just so that they could capture Philip. The old man walked out at this time. He looked at the heavenly general and said loudly, “Heavenly General, did you create such a big commotion just for one little Philip Clarke?” The heavenly general snorted coldly at the old man’s remark. “I didn't do anything at the Heroes Conference on account of the ancient powerful being, but do you think you can protect him forever?” Hearing that, the old man's expression finally softened. “I’m protecting him? He doesn’t need my protection at all. I can tell you that he’s accepting the inheritance of the ancient powerful being now. Once he succeeds, I’m afraid that you
Philip was very curious about this too. However, the flames were much stronger than the air currents, and Philip felt that he could barely hang on a couple of times. Fantasia appeared at this time. “Philip, take this!” Following her clear shout, Philip looked up and saw several pills flying toward him. “Thanks!” Philip reached out, grabbed the pills, and popped them into his mouth. A surge of energy exploded in Philip's mouth, and the unfamiliar energy filled his whole body. With the energy’s nourishment, Philip’s skin and nerves began healing. At this moment, Philip finally realized what he had just experienced. Seeing his skin peeling off inch by inch, Philip thought, ‘If others see this scene, they’ll probably think I won’t survive this.’ Fantasia chuckled and said, “You don’t have to thank me. They’re your rewards for winning the competition. I just gave them to you in advance.” After saying that, she disappeared from the spot just like the old man. On the o
A bright red umbrella suddenly appeared in Fantasia’s hand. She threw the umbrella out, and it shattered all the energy chains around her body. The umbrella continued growing bigger. Drops of light like pollen fell on everyone. The drops of light took root and sprouted on everyone's bodies, growing branches and leaves. Everyone was shocked. Although there were many people with weird skills on this continent, this was the first time they encountered such an odd method. Those drops of light sprouted with their life energy. As they grew bigger, they absorbed more energy. As this was an indiscriminate attack, everyone turned to Fantasia. In a flash, all attention was focused on Fantasia. All sorts of attacks were launched at this moment. No matter how powerful Fantasia was, she could not withstand it at all. Fantasia spat a mouthful of blood. However, she was unperturbed, and her counter-attack became more aggressive. Everyone was stunned. No one expected that
“If I didn’t come out, I wouldn’t know that I’m so popular. I’m surprised that I’ve attracted so many people.” After he said that, everyone stopped attacking and looked at Philip. “Since all of you want to capture me alive, come on!” Philip promptly dashed out, but his target this time was not the mysterious force and the heavenly general. He was aiming at the fleet of the ancient Heavenly Court in the distance. The huge fleet was a good hiding place for Philip. Philip had obtained the full inheritance but had not fully digested everything yet. It only temporarily increased all his elements to level 6S. For this reason, he was able to walk in the air with the help of air currents. He landed on a spaceship, and the Caelum Sword penetrated the hull of the spaceship. Then, Philip ran on the hull. The sword energy split the hull into two, and the spaceship fell to the ground with a loud rumble. Philip jumped to another spaceship. Seeing this scene, the heavenly gene
However, the heavenly general had no time to think too much now because Philip was like a slippery eel. No matter what false or real moves he used, Philip would retreat immediately. It seemed that Philip was not keen on fighting. After realizing this, the heavenly general's attack became more aggressive. However, when he was about to use his strongest trump card to kill Philip, Philip ran away. He suddenly felt as if the punch he threw with all his might had landed on soft cotton. He knew that he had to kill Philip no matter what. If he allowed such an opponent to grow, it might leave infinite perils for him in the future. Besides, he might be related to that person. However, this kid was too cunning and simply slipped away. “After him! Don’t let him run away!” The heavenly general issued the order and quickly gave chase. However, Philip was not running around like a headless chicken. From the memories of the mighty being, he knew that there was a place called the Cha
Philip stopped running and turned to face the people of the ancient Heavenly Court and the mysterious force. “Since you want to chase after me, let me give you a big gift.” Philip’s body suddenly swelled up and turned into a giant humanoid chimera in front of everyone. Level 6S flames were poles apart from level 5S. Boom! A flaming waterfall poured out in an instant. With his fire element, Philip turned into a huge flaming chimera and crashed into the people who were chasing him. He promptly returned to his normal state and ran into the territory of the fire phoenix royal family. Blossoms Valley was within the domain of the fire phoenix royal family. That mysterious force and the people from the ancient Heavenly Court did not belong to the fire phoenix royal family, so such a large-scale intrusion would mean declaring war on the other party. In the end, the people from the ancient Heavenly Court and the mysterious force stopped. They stood outside the territory of
Philip glanced back. He had nothing to lose. Seeing that the pursuers had stopped, Philip said, “Everyone, I’m sorry for this inconvenience. Once the people chasing after me outside have dispersed, I shall leave immediately. What do you think?” However, these members of the fire phoenix royal family did not want Philip to stay. After all, they were bound by identity and duty here. If Philip was allowed to enter and anything happened, they could not shirk the responsibility. “Although we really want to help you, we have our duty to perform here. “We can only give you one hour. If you don't leave after an hour, please don’t blame us for taking action.” One hour was enough. Philip smiled and sat down cross-legged. His actions seemed as if he had expected this. He had already taken these people’s reactions into account. Although an hour was not a long time, it was enough for Philip to recover a little. The guards of the fire phoenix royal family watched Philip while kee
“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
