In order for Conlay and the others to find him, Philip had to make as much commotion as possible. Even if he could not find them by then, they could find him. Almost instantly, the aircraft of the fire phoenix royal family drifted over Philip like a dark cloud. Instead of being nervous, Philip had a smile on his face. It was simply wishful thinking if they wanted to rely on these aircraft to capture him. Philip sprang into action abruptly. He burrowed into the desert floor with the earth snake he conjured. The moment he sank into the ground, artillery and gunfire exploded at the very spot. A second later and Philip might be blasted into smithereens. Members of the fire phoenix royal family yelled, “Send the spider battalion after him!” The spider battalion was the modern mechanical civilization of the fire phoenix royal family. The little mechanical spiders were very flexible and adept at moving underground. Not only could they attack and capture enemies, but th
Philip promptly fled after setting the fire.He was not stupid enough to stay where he was after setting the fire and wait for the fire phoenix general and the people from the fire phoenix royal family to catch him.With the help of the earth element, he retreated while fighting the people of the fire phoenix royal family.This aroused their hatred for Philip. That was because Philip managed to kill countless soldiers of the fire phoenix royal family, but they could not do anything to him at all.Philip tried to contact Conlay with his communicator, but the latter seemed unreachable.Philip used the great Astrum's heritage to change his trajectory.Due to this method contained in the memory of the great Astrum, he was able to accurately avoid the pursuit of the fire phoenix royal family battalion.However, a thought suddenly popped into Philip's mind.Something was wrong. Conlay once mentioned that the driving force behind this floating city was the existence of technological
When Conlay saw Philip, there was a look of surprise and excitement on his face. “How did you guess we were hiding underwater?” Philip smiled at his remark. “Isn't the most dangerous place the safest?” Leopard came over at this time and said to Philip with a smile, “As expected of the boss, you’re much smarter than that so-called fire phoenix general.” Philip simply waved his hand and used his energy to dry his clothes. He asked, “How did you trick the fire phoenix general?” Philip had been wondering about this. The size of this floating city was not small. If it really entered the water, it was impossible for the other party not to have noticed the commotion. However, the floating city entered the water right under everyone’s noses, so how could Philip not be surprised? Conlay smiled and told Philip everything. Hearing Conlay's narration, Philip only thought that Conlay was very bold. Not long after Philip left, the fire phoenix general led a large army to the oa
The heavenly general suddenly laughed. However, his laughter was extremely unpleasant to the ears. It sounded like two pieces of metal clashing against each other. “Philip, you’ll never hear this secret from me. I won’t tell you even if I die!” Hearing that, Philip simply smiled. Although he had never interrogated anyone, he had seen enough in the ancestral land. “I'll only give you one chance. You can either suffer a fate worse than death, or tell me who that person is and I’ll make it quick for you.” Philip pulled out the Caelum Sword. With a slight flick of the blade, a piercing sword aura flew toward the heavenly general. A gash appeared on the heavenly general's body. “Is this your version of a fate worse than death? Philip, are you really aware of your strength?” the heavenly general taunted. Philip sneered and said, “It's not time for you to act tough.” Philip lashed out with his Caelum Sword repeatedly, and pieces of flesh as thin as onion peel fell from the
This visual impact was extremely overwhelming. “So? Are you willing to talk now?” Philip stopped what he was doing and looked at the heavenly general. He would not do this if not for the secret. After all, this was against human nature and morality. Philip realized that Conlay was standing behind him with a pale face. Philip turned to him and said, “Don’t think that this is cruel. If I had fallen into his hands, I wouldn’t fare any better.” Philip did this because he was well aware of this. Under this torture, the heavenly general finally succumbed. “Put me down, let me have a good meal, and I’ll tell you everything.” The heavenly general finally gave in. His face was full of tears, snot, and spit. However, he could not care less now. He just wanted Philip to kill him quickly. He did not want to go through such torture anymore. “Tell me the secret first. I promise that you’ll have a good meal,” Philip looked at the heavenly general and said blandly. Seeing Phi
Looking at the heavenly general's dead body on the ground, Philip did not know what to say.After hearing the heavenly general’s words, Conlay's face changed drastically.“The Arcane Ocean?! I’ve heard about that place from my teacher. It’s rumored to be the cemetery of the mighty beings!“According to legend, it’s good enough if one out of ten mighty beings can walk out alive once they enter.”Philip frowned. No wonder the heavenly general said he could not guarantee that Philip could walk out alive.However, he had to go to that place if he wanted to find his mother's whereabouts, no matter if the heavenly general spoke the truth.Another question arose in Philip's mind. Who was Conlay’s teacher?If he knew about the Arcane Ocean, had he been there before?“Has your teacher ever been to the Arcane Ocean?”Hearing Philip's question, Conlay shook his head and said, “My teacher said that with his strength, there’s no way he can enter the Arcane Ocean.”Fire appeared in Philip’
Philip smiled and said, “Since the fire phoenix general is here, they’ll definitely head this way, but what if he’s dead? “Without a commander, what do you think the fire phoenix battalion will do?” Conlay said in surprise, “Are you saying that you’ll get rid of the fire phoenix general?” Philip nodded. Since the beginning, he had had this intention when he planned it. Now, he also discovered that the fire phoenix general’s clone was something he had made at a great cost with a strength similar to his own. What Philip killed earlier was none other than that clone. Although this method was costly, it could save one’s life at a critical moment. Moreover, Philip refused to believe that the fire phoenix general had other clones. “Assemble the practitioners of the floating city and form small teams.” Hearing that, Conlay quickly issued the order. “After everyone is gathered, you guys can go out once I start fighting with the fire phoenix general up there.” After Phil
Philip dared to fight the fire phoenix general so confidently because not only did he now have the power of the source of life, but he also vaguely felt that he was about to reach the next level of practice. He was now lacking the opportunity to break through that barrier. The fire phoenix general happened to be his opportunity. After leaving the exit of the floating city and swimming into the icy water, Philip suddenly felt a slight fluctuation from something underwater. However, Philip had no intention of investigating now. The two major issues had not been resolved yet. No matter what, he had to get rid of the fire phoenix royal family’s battalion from the oasis first. Finally, he emerged from the lake. At this moment, many members of the fire phoenix royal family’s battalion were stationed around the oasis. A person appeared by the lake. It was the quartermaster of the fire phoenix royal family. Seeing Philip coming out of the lake, the quartermaster was dumbfounded
“Since that’s your request, I’ll oblige.” Philip flew up the stage and quickly landed next to the old monk. Everyone was jealous to see Philip forging a connection with the old monk. Many people at the scene recognized Philip and knew who he was. “Look, isn't that Philip? I can’t believe that the old monk is so interested in Philip. It seems that we can’t take Philip lightly.” “I always thought Philip was a loser, but maybe I’m mistaken.” “He’s on very good terms with the Celestial Palace. Why would you think he was a loser?” Everyone discussed this topic with great interest. Carlos was quite close to Philip, so he felt proud to hear those comments. He knew that everyone was just jealous of Philip. The old monk stretched out his hand and invited Philip to go to his room. Philip nodded at his indication. “You look like a newcomer. Sure enough, the younger generation is taking over the world. For someone at your age to reach this level, you’re certainly a force to be
No one had ever seen the old monk, so they did not know what he was like. Philip and his party soon arrived at Zenith, which looked very grand just like a palace. The large arena in the middle was crowded with people. Everyone was looking at the stage, waiting to pay homage to this legendary old monk. Some people had seen the old monk and heard his lecture in the past. They felt that they had benefited from it, so they arrived early this time to grab a good spot. Others had never seen the old monk, but they knew they would benefit from his lecture about practice. Philip and Carlos squeezed into the middle of the crowd and found seats. Philip was very curious about the old monk and could not wait to see him. Soon, the old monk appeared in front of everyone. He looked very impressive. Seeing his attire, Philip felt that this old man was definitely not an ordinary person. His clothes were very expensive, not something anyone could afford. It was not only in reference to the pr
Rabbit was attacked by the spell before he could react. He stood on the spot blankly, wondering what was going on. Rabbit tried to move when he felt that something was wrong with him. He seemed to have lost control of his body and could not move. “You have no say in this matter. Since you left with me, it means that you've agreed to follow me.” The hooded man was calm. He did not think that Rabbit could escape his clutches easily. After all, the piece of yellow paper was not an ordinary item. He had gone to great lengths to get it. He could control the rabbit’s mind and body fearlessly with that piece of yellow paper. Over time, the rabbit would eventually become his puppet. The hooded man was very excited to think that he would have a powerful helper. Rabbit lost his senses and had no idea what happened. Subconsciously, Rabbit wanted to resist, but he could not for some reason. He could only stand and wait for orders. “Hey, bring me a glass of water,” the hooded man said
“I sense a familiar vibe from you. Where are you from?” Rabbit asked curiously. He had a feeling that this man did not belong to this world. He felt familiar. The man stared at Rabbit while thinking about how to take it away. “I have many secrets. Do you want to know more? Come with me, then. I can give you a good life and help you quickly level up. You can become the best rabbit in existence and stand at the top of this world!” Rabbit hopped over and nodded excitedly. He knew that this person was mysterious and weird, so he wanted to find out more. The hooded man was shocked that this rabbit was dumb enough to leave with him. However, he did not reveal his smugness and just held the rabbit in his arms devoutly. He never thought that he could have such a powerful pet. Thinking of this, he decided to do something to make this rabbit his own. This rabbit had developed intelligence, so it would not agree to become his pet so easily. Rabbit was just leaving with him, but being
The hooded man was very interested in Rabbit and wanted to make contact with him to find out more about him. He quickly found Philip’s house and was surprised to find that it was surrounded by a barrier that blocked all his perceptions, which made him conflicted. It was not a place he could enter at will. He felt some energy fluctuations from formations too. If he was not mistaken, entering this place would be dangerous for him. After much deliberation, he turned around and left without staying any longer. His visit here was enough to verify his guess. Since Philip could come up with such a powerful formation and barrier, he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. At the very least, Philip was not someone he could deal with so easily. As for Rabbit, the hooded man was not bothered by him at all. He just wanted to know how Philip subdued such a powerful pet. The hooded man had dealt with many monster beasts in the past but failed to subdue any. He had even suffered badly un
“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
