Hearing that, Philip merely sneered. Although he did not know who this so-called Great Augur was, it was too naive for this person to think that he could catch him so easily. Suddenly, Philip’s aura exploded. That stranger was startled. “It seems that the Great Augur is right. He said that if I underestimated you, I would fall into your hands.” After he finished speaking, the crisscrossing water elements instantly formed a big net and shrouded Philip. Philip tried to use his sword energy to break through the net formed by the water elements, but for some unknown reason, the net was surprisingly tough. On top of that, the net was gradually getting tighter. At this time, the stranger finally said, “If you don't want to die under my hammer, you’d better behave. I still have to take your head to get the reward from the ancient Heavenly Court.” Hearing that, Philip finally realized the identity of the stranger. It seemed that the ancient Heavenly Court had not given up yet
Philip thrust the Caelum Sword into the ground and activated his earth element. His whole body practically merged with the soil on the ground. Philip did this because the opponent was using the water elements in the underwater world to assist him in combat. Thus, Philip used the earth element contained in the sand under his feet to assist him. At this moment, it was no longer a battle between Philip and the stranger but a contest between the earth element and the water element. The ripples of the water element centered on the pagoda, forming veins like spider webs one after another, continuously gathering the water elements in the underwater world. No matter how much the water element fluctuated, the sediment under the water remained motionless. The earth element was like a solid fortress under Philip's control. The earth element gathered together like a whole. Although this stranger also possessed many elemental talents like Philip, the difference between him and Phili
Just when the stranger thought that Philip was going to kill him, the red-white flames on Philip's body disappeared. Philip said softly, “Take your weapon and leave.” The stranger asked in surprise, “Aren't you going to kill me?” Seeing the expression on the stranger's face, Philip shook his head and walked to the cave. “You fought with me because you wanted to kill me, not because the weapon in your hand wanted to kill me.” A wave of admiration welled up in the stranger's heart. Although Philip did not make things very clear, the stranger knew Philip meant there was nothing wrong with him being a killing tool for others. “Aren't you afraid that I’ll go back and contact the people in our organization to go after you again?” The stranger looked at Philip's back and asked loudly. Philip just waved his hand without even saying a word. The stranger did not care if Philip could hear him or not. He shouted, “My name is Raven. From now on, killing you is my only goal in li
Seeing this scene, Philip released his rules of insight first. He wanted to see if there were any guardian beasts around him, and he watched the cave entrance warily. After all, he could not let his guard down yet. Who knew if Raven might return with a group of people to kill him? Philip adjusted his breathing rhythm and heart rate as much as possible. Combined with the power of the source of life, Philip seemed invisible in this cave. There was an explosion at the entrance of the cave. Philip watched as a figure was blasted in. The figure crashed into the energy mine, and when he saw the person clearly, Philip realized that it was Raven. Blood gushed from his mouth, and cracks appeared in the sledgehammer in his hand. Obviously, he was blasted into this cave after a tough fight. A battle god of the ancient Heavenly Court said smugly to Raven, “If you don't tell us where Philip Clarke is hiding, even if we kill you, the Great Augur won't say anything.” The battle go
Philip’s action was not obvious. The green life essence was like little snakes. They suddenly exploded after they swam above the energy mine. When the battle gods of the ancient Heavenly Court looked back, they merely noticed that something was wrong with this energy mine. Raven naturally saw everything, but he did not say anything because he knew that Philip was doing this to save him. The roars of the beasts got closer and closer, almost arriving. They had been staying next to the underwater energy mine for a long time and had long regarded this place as their territory, so any commotion would definitely arouse their caution. The battle gods of the ancient Heavenly Court looked solemn, but that did not mean they were afraid of these beasts. “Let me interrogate this kid first. As for the things that are coming over, I'll leave them to you.” The leading battle god of the ancient Heavenly Court said leisurely. He did not seem to take the guardian beasts of the energy min
The middle-aged man said that because Fenrir was defeated by his men back then. Fenrir's face darkened at the man’s words. After all, no one wanted to reveal their shame in front of everyone. As the saying went, one should not air one’s dirty laundry in public. However, this middle-aged man not only revealed his shortcomings but also his most humiliating moment. “The 28 zodiacs were said to be invincible back then, so I wonder why only the white tiger in the west is left now.” This was obviously Fenrir's retort against the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man did not take his words to heart at all. “I don’t need to tell you why we left, but are you here today just to provoke us?” The middle-aged man suddenly took a step forward and unleashed his aura. A strong gust of wind hit the battle gods of the ancient Heavenly Court. Although he did not attack directly, it was obvious that the middle-aged man wanted to intimidate Fenrir. Philip moved quietly toward Raven. He
Philip’s movements were very nimble and subtle. Although Philip knew both parties would notice them the moment he rescued Raven, since they were fighting each other, no one could spare the time to deal with him now. That spurred Philip's confidence. After quietly moving to the entrance, Philip reappeared and pulled Raven before speeding up abruptly. As Raven was seriously injured, he could only allow Philip to take him away. However, he still said stubbornly, “Don’t think that I’ll be grateful to you and give up the idea of killing you just because you saved me once.” Philip smiled. He saved Raven simply because Raven did not reveal his whereabouts at the most critical moment. Philip flicked a smear of life essence on Raven. “I don't need you to be grateful to me. When you noticed my location, you didn’t tell the battle gods of the ancient Heavenly Court. We’re even.” Seeing that he was out of the range of the cave, Philip slowed down and moved underwater with Raven
This was the center of a vortex, and it did not take Philip too much effort to get there. If not for Philip’s high practice level, ordinary people would need a lot of courage to enter this vortex. The water element in this vortex was huge, and one careless move could tear someone into pieces. However, Philip was not afraid. His water element was fully activated to resist the water pressure from the surroundings. Finally, he saw the whole appearance of the underwater energy mine. The energy stones were stacked like mountains here, and water vapor shrouded these energy stones. From time to time, colorful small fish swam back and forth. Corals swayed atop the energy stones, making this place seem like an underwater wonderland. Philip unleashed his rules of insight and found no beasts around, so he knew his guess was correct. Without hesitation, he took off the ring in his hand and pressed it on the energy mine. Buzz! A buzzing sound spread through the underwater world.
The diners were surprised at this scene. As frequent customers, they had never seen the owner appear in person, let alone greet someone. The owner actually took the initiative to walk out today. “Sir, you don’t have to wait any longer. Please take a seat in the private room reserved for you.” The snake woman smiled brightly, obviously very interested in Philip. All the male diners were jealous and wished they had the same opportunity. However, she was here for Philip and ignored everyone else. She did not even spare anyone a glance as she walked away. Although everyone was jealous, they knew that Philip was a capable person. The woman approached Philip probably because of his extraordinary talent, so there was nothing they could do about their jealousy. They had taken part in the competition as well and knew how strong Philip's people were. Just one kid alone took the Wagner family down.Some people felt indignant and wanted to mess with Philip. At this time, a kid walked
Ronan gave Philip a thumbs-up as everyone returned to their meals. His words really carried some weight to command these people with just a casual remark. Philip was unfazed by the compliment. He was staring at a person. To be precise, he was looking at a curtain where a woman behind the curtain was staring at Philip too. She was the owner of this diner, and she was not a human but of a humanoid race. She had the upper body of a human, which was very beautiful and attractive. Anyone would be attracted by her beauty with just one glance. However, she had the lower body of a snake. The diners would turn their heads from time to time and look at the curtain as if trying to catch a glimpse of that woman. A gust of wind would ruffle the curtain from time to time, allowing everyone to see the woman’s face and marvel at her beauty from the bottom of their hearts. Philip sneered at their reaction. They were really stupid for not realizing that she was half-human with a snake’s tail.
Ferocity flashed in Cameron’s eyes. If Ronan refused, things would be difficult. Cameron would never allow such a strong enemy who had a grudge against the family to stay alive. Anyone who posed a threat to the family would arouse his killing intent. Other family members gathered around and expressed their dissatisfaction with Ronan. “Who does he think he is? Is it beneath him to have lunch with us? He really thinks he's a big shot!” “Does he think we’re unworthy to eat with him? How ridiculous!” Everyone complained and thought Ronan was an arrogant person. Ronan was not bothered about their opinions of him at all. He wished they could treat him as their enemy. “Your performance was quite good. The deep-sea merfolk are probably furious by now,” Philip said with a smile. Ronan's performance was indeed outstanding, and his extraordinary actions humiliated the other party. “They must've decided to mess with you during the finals, but I ruined their plan. I’m sure they’ll
Tangy nodded. He would never show any sign of weakness. Tangy knew that Nolly wanted him to continue the battle against Philip. It was also one of his dreams, so he would never give up so easily. “Don’t worry, leave it to me. I’ll never let Philip leave this place alive. Since we can’t defeat him openly, let’s settle it in private. I believe he’ll fall into our hands eventually,” Tangy said viciously. He thought of a plan to deal with Philip. “But you need to take care of the kid under Philip’s command. He’s so strong that I think he has awakened his latent ability. I don’t think I’m a match for him.” After careful observation, Tangy determined that the kid had awakened his latent ability. Nolly nodded in agreement. It would be embarrassing if they failed to seek revenge. More importantly, they made such a big fuss yesterday and even vowed to deal with Philip. This situation was embarrassing enough already. “Let’s do this…” They discussed privately and quickly decided o
“That kid is amazing. He must be the descendant of a powerful being!” “You’re right. There’s no way a normal kid can reach that level. I can’t believe that Philip is capable enough to get someone so powerful to work for him!” The deep-sea merfolk were deep in a discussion. They thought Philip was simply lucky, not powerful. “If it weren't for his good luck, he probably wouldn't even make it through the preliminary round!” Before long, the deep-sea merfolk focused on their own battle because they found Tangy retreating repeatedly. Everyone knew how strong Tangy was. As the strongest fighter among them, he could at least fight Ronan to a draw. He could easily crush the losers from other families in a matter of minutes. Despite that, Tangy was unable to handle Ronan, which was simply unbelievable. “What's going on? Is Tangy going to lose?” Nolly was flustered. If Tangy lost, their plan to deal with Philip would be ruined. They planned to get rid of Philip during the fight.
Members of the Wagner family nodded vigorously, and even those who were not participating in the competition were excited. Everyone knew that they had to win, whether for the family or their personal honor. The young man taking part in the competition laughed smugly. As a grown man, how could he lose to a child? It would be too embarrassing if he lost! Defeat never crossed his mind, so he immediately sprang into action when the alarm rang. He launched a fierce attack without further ado, trying to end the fight quickly and show the child his powerful strength. However, when he charged at his opponent at full speed, the child was gone! The kid was nowhere to be found as if he had vanished into thin air. “You’re too slow.” A delicate voice sounded from behind him, and the child appeared in front of him. The guy was sent flying out of the battlefield with a kick before he realized what was going on. According to the rules, the fight would be over once one party died or was sent
Ronan quickly picked his opponent. He was surprised and wondered if Lady Luck was smiling at him or if the draw was rigged, but he actually picked the deep-sea merfolk right away. Although he wanted to teach them a lesson, he had to carry on with the act too. “Haha, this took no effort at all. Our opponent is Ronan!"Although Ronan is strong, we’re fully prepared this time. No matter how powerful he is, he’ll never escape our clutches!” The deep-sea merfolk sounded very confident, smiling brazenly as if certain of their victory. They had sent their strongest fighter this time. They had planned to reserve this person to deal with Philip, but they faced Ronan instead. Their contestants were not fixed in advance. Under unforeseen circumstances, they could choose a substitute. Therefore, they decided to assign this strongest fighter to face Ronan and Philip. This person’s name was Tangy. Tangy knew that he had to face two opponents, but he was not nervous at all. He hoped that h
“That’s enough. You may leave.” Ronan turned around and returned to Philip's side, unwilling to exchange more fake pleasantries with Cameron any longer. In his opinion, such empty talk was meaningless, and he did not want to say another word to that person. Philip smiled at Ronan’s indifference. “If you want to deal with the deep-sea merfolk, you need to make sure you don’t lose. Acting must be done wholeheartedly. Don’t let anyone realize that you’re acting,” Philip said to Ronan earnestly. Rabbit nodded vigorously. No one was better than him in acting. Ronan suddenly felt a little pressure. “Oh no, the pesky flies are here again.” Ronan frowned unhappily as the patriarchs of the families approached them. “I’m sure they're here for our wine!” Ronan did not want to sell the wine to them. Not to mention how much the wine had improved his strength, Ronan was a drinker himself. He would be left with nothing if they bought all his wine. “Ronan, we’re here again!” “You s
“Ronan, I know you’re unhappy with me, but the family is depending on you!” Cameron had to bite the bullet because he could not think of anyone but Ronan who could win the first prize. “Since I promised you, I’ll take part in the competition,” Ronan said calmly. However, Cameron could not help but feel something strange in his words. Ronan had come up with a plan after a discussion with Philip last night. Ronan was not in favor of helping Cameron because their relationship was so bad that it was not necessary for them to work together anymore. However, Philip had a different opinion. He was certain that the Claude family would put all hopes on Ronan, so he wanted Ronan to set them up. Ronan was not concerned about his reputation because he was not a hypocritical and superficial person. Hence, losing the competition meant nothing to Ronan. In that case, Philip did not want to miss this opportunity. Ronan would take part in the competition as agreed and try his best but witho
