When Philip reappeared, he found that he had entered the ancient tower. To Philip's surprise, he was not on the top floor. He was in a gray and dark place without sunlight, and Philip was surprised by the faintly visible buildings around him. He did not expect to find such a big place in this ancient tower. Was this a space enchantment? Philip was in an old house surrounded by desks, ancient books, and writing materials. At Philip’s touch, these things were instantly reduced to ashes. Philip sighed. Such things could not withstand the erosion of time. Philip pushed open the door and found that the door was integrated with the ancient tower. The next moment, Philip frowned as he saw countless corridors and rooms. Philip kept opening the room doors and saw a lot of porcelain, treasures, and armor. Unfortunately, everything turned to ashes in an instant. After Philip opened dozens of rooms, he discovered the scent of herbs. Philip got excited. There were some treas
There was a restriction on every room. Although damaged now, the remaining traces still reflected the past glory. After half a day of exploration, Philip finally found an attic that looked different. Faint traces of restrictions could be found in the attic, and Philip found the room to be full of sword intent as soon as he entered. It was a completely different world in the room, but the sword intent did not attack Philip. Philip walked into the attic slowly. Although the interior of the room was simple, it was extraordinary too. The pictures and paintings on the wall revealed the power of countless rules that could drown someone at a glance. Philip saw the picture of a sword on the wall and was lost in it instantly. Philip saw a blood-red world with sword intent and sword shadows raging all over the sky. Philip felt as if he was right in the middle of it. For a brief moment, he felt that his body and soul were ripped apart, and Philip woke up. Philip trembled in shock.
By the time Philip opened his eyes, an hour had passed, and there was no injury on him. His wounds just now turned out to be hallucinations, which blew Philip’s mind. The Splitting Sword Intent was very powerful indeed, but everything in the attic had been reduced to ashes. However, something was left for Philip, and he found a trace on a broken stone tablet. [In Year 36, 027 of the primordial age, demons raged and a hundred races ran rampant. At my teacher’s command, I stood guard over the Verge Tower to protect the foundation of the human race…] This message was incomplete, but Philip still learned something useful. This ancient tower was Verge Tower, an artifact left behind by the human race, but unfortunately, it had been reduced to this dilapidated condition. It seemed that this was left by the predecessors of the human race when they first arrived from the ancestral land to the Starfall Continent, but there was no mention of what happened back then. Moreover, Verge
Everything was reflected in the mirror, which seemed to be a treasure but was now a part of Verge Tower. After taking a few glances, Philip set off for the next floor. As long as he controlled Verge Tower, all the treasures inside would be his. Just like this, Philip advanced several floors. He saw a world of ice and snow, a space full of fire, and a dark abyss. Philip found that Verge Tower was like a prison. However, Verge Tower also formed a world of its own, and every floor was full of life. Finally, Philip came to the tenth floor, which was the ocean world. The whole space seemed submerged in water with no sky in sight, and Philip felt a strong life force in the boundless water world. Philip did not expect to run into Sylvia's companion, Candace, in the canyon of an underwater chasm. The moment Philip appeared, Candace noticed him. Philip was mostly attracted by a huge crystal shining brightly with energy and light, and Philip immediately recognized it as a water sto
Philip had no time to dodge, and a black turtle shield appeared on his body. Bang! The attack hit him head-on. Although he was not injured, his blood surged. “Hmph, before you attack someone, you should find out who they belong to. How dare a chimera prince hurt my people?” The attacker was none other than Sylvia Shell. Philip said flatly, “Hehe, do you think your status is nobler than mine?” Sylvia scowled and said coldly, “This is the ancient dragon territory, not your chimera territory.” The threat was pretty obvious. Philip pursed his lips. He was not a real member of the chimera royal family but an imposter, so he was not afraid of her. This world was the survival of the fittest. Only the strong had the right to speak, and those with the biggest fists set the rules. “Hehe, I’ve weathered countless storms and am not afraid of a little girl like you.” Philip said with a chuckle, not taking Sylvia seriously at all. Sylvia was a pampered girl since she was a chil
The next moment, sword cries filled the space, and a splitting word intent appeared in front of Philip. Following Philip's movement, the sword intent disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already in front of Sylvia. The sword hummed constantly, and Sylvia was shocked. Energy emerged from her in defense. Even so, the sword intent pierced through Sylvia’s shoulder and wreaked havoc on her body. Candace quickly asked, “Your Highness, are you alright?” “I’m fine, but the chimera prince ran away. This is so annoying.” Sylvia said coldly, her body already injured. “Should I give chase?” Sylvia said coldly, “Don't chase after him. He has many tricks up his sleeve. You may not be his match. “It seems that my father is right. There are countless experts in the Starfall Continent, and I’m just a frog at the bottom of the well.” Candace said softly, “Your Highness, I don't understand. We can enter the tenth floor because we have this token. How did the chimera prince get h
Philip clearly saw his punch hitting the big roc without the slightest ripple. “That thing’s too strong, damn it!” Philip cursed angrily. He did not expect the big roc's defense to be so strong. Philip dared not hesitate. With a roar, his energy surged, and the whole space fluctuated. The next moment, Philip turned into a giant that was hundreds of meters tall with flames all over his body. It was the chimera manifestation. The space became hazy, burned by the flames of the giant chimera. Philip clenched his fists and punched the big roc. Boom! As the fist shadow fell, the space hummed and vibrated. However, Philip saw the sarcasm in the big roc’s eyes. The big roc simply stood motionless, waiting for Philip’s attack. Bang! The space shook, and energy fluctuations spread to the surroundings. Dust billowed within a range of several miles, and Philip saw the huge eyes of the big roc even more closely this time. The big roc flapped its wings. Philip felt a trem
Sword cries resounded throughout the space, full of monstrous sword intent and murderous aura! The big roc was looking at the sky with a hint of excitement in its eyes. A screech pierced through the sky! It seemed to be saying that this was interesting. Philip was exasperated. However, the big roc remained motionless and allowed the sword formation to cover it fearlessly. In the sky, the Chimera Sword Formation started spinning, and fiery red sword shadows fell from the sky. The red sword shadows illuminated the space for a moment. Clang, clink! With the sounds of metal collisions, the sword shadows hit the big roc, creating sparks. Seeing this scene, Philip was speechless, and shouted coldly, “Form!” The fiery red sword shadows continued to gather in the sky and formed a giant sword shadow that glowed with a sharp cold light as if it could tear the surrounding space. The big roc screeched as if it was taking this more seriously now, and a dark golden light app
They could also see some toddlers, which proved that the predecessors were living quite a good life. “We thought you had ascended to another place. Is this the place you ended up? It doesn’t look like the paradise described in the books!” Selma blinked innocently, wondering why this place looked like this. This place was not rich in energy, and there was nothing special about it, so it was not attractive at all. “We didn’t ascend but have been trapped in this place over the years with no way to leave.” Fitz did not want to deceive them and simply told them the facts. Now that they had entered, the newcomers had no way of leaving either. “Didn’t you notice? The passage that led you in has been sealed. There’s no way to leave now.” Selma turned her head curiously and looked at the exit. Philip followed suit and found that it was indeed the case. The exit was blocked by a huge stone. No one knew when the stone appeared. It felt like it appeared out of thin air. Philip's ex
When Philip’s eyes adjusted to the light, he saw a gurgling stream in front of him. There was a small village beside the stream and many more villages along the stream. Philip counted four in total. The villagers who lived along the stream observed Philip as he looked at them. “Outsiders?” A man standing in the front stared at Philip in surprised disbelief. Philip noticed that he had a snake tail. Hearing the man's words, everyone ran out. Without exception, they all had a snake tail. It was clear that they belonged to the same race as Selma. Selma covered her mouth in shock at this scene. It was true. Their predecessors were staying there. The man mellowed down after seeing Selma. He felt a familiar vibe on her. It seemed that they shared the same bloodline. Philip nudged Selma, who quickly understood his meaning and showed her true form. Cavin followed her cue. Seeing this scene, the man laughed and applauded. The spider people arrived at this time. They were surpri
Philip finally realized that Ariadna was not wealthy enough to do business with him. “This emerald pendant is very valuable! Don’t look down on it just because you’re strong!” Ariadna grumbled under her breath but had no choice but to accept it. After all, Philip had the final say about its value. Maybe her treasure was worthless to Philip because he was too strong for it. After taking the emerald pendant, Philip told Ariadna what he knew per their agreement, which was the secret about people living in the ancestral land. As expected, Ariadna was shocked by the news too. “Are you serious? This is too far-fetched. Are you saying that our predecessors have been trapped here and haven't left for another place?” Her outburst gave Philip a different idea. When he spoke to Selma earlier, he subconsciously believed that these so-called predecessors had ascended. It was strange that they reached a very odd place of ascension. After hearing Ariadna’s remark, however, it seemed mor
No one knew if their predecessors would treat them as their own. Although they had the same bloodline, they had not seen each other for such a long time. Besides, they sneaked into the ancestral land without permission. Maybe they would be killed before they stepped inside. Philip’s information was very useful, indeed. Selma quickly returned to her family members in a panic and discussed with them. With only a few of them, the discussion was very brief before they reached a decision. Cavin grimaced at this unexpected development, and he was more in awe of Philip. He was shocked by Philip’s strength. If Philip could sense that, his observation skill was nothing in front of Philip! Cavin felt helpless about it. It felt a little embarrassing to have shown off his skill in front of Philip now. “Selma, what should we do now? We have to consider the stalkers behind us. They won’t give up that easily. We may be in trouble if we don't find a way to get rid of them.” Cavin glanced at th
“Are you referring to humans like us or unique races like them?” Philip was surprised that Rabbit sensed something that he did not. Philip stroked Rabbit's round head with satisfaction as a compliment to him. Rabbit wiggled his short tail in pride. He really felt something was wrong, so he hoped Philip would pay attention to it. “I don’t think they're one of us. They're more likely one of the unique races.” Rabbit did not kick up a fuss after he noticed something was wrong but simply spoke to Philip on the side. He knew that these people might go crazy if they found out people were living in their ancestral land. Philip looked at Rabbit solemnly. After much deliberation, he finally decided to tell Selma about the discovery. Meanwhile, Selma was still thinking about how to get rid of Ariadna when Philip pulled her aside all of a sudden. Selma looked at Philip shyly with a hint of panic in her eyes. “I need to tell you something. Be mentally prepared for it,” Philip said se
If Philip had not been on guard, he might have been misled by the mist into thinking that it was nothing. Others rushed over, eager to find out what happened. Ronan looked around excitedly. He wanted to judge the situation by the traces left behind, but surprisingly, there was no sign of a battle. He was confused and wondered what had happened. He had been expecting a fierce battle. After all, it was very difficult to subdue such things. However, he saw a scene of peace in front of him. “Philip, what happened? Something feels wrong. There should be something toxic here, but I don’t see anything. Are you too strong or are those things too cunning?” Ronan was very curious and felt that things were more than met the eye. “You’ll find out soon. Anyway, did those guys follow you?” Philip looked back at the restless people mockingly. They were not that strong, but they would never miss any chance to take advantage of others. “Some of them did follow us, but they're not very quick
“On top of that, I can also help to expand your awareness and enhance your mental strength.” Philip persuaded the mist with everything he had, hoping that it would leave with him. He was strong enough to interact with the mist in an equal setting. If the mist refused to give in, Philip would consider beating it into submission. After much deliberation, the mist, who was more like an innocent child, agreed to Philip’s suggestion. Philip felt the excitement expressed by the mist. “I’ll take you into my space now. Don’t resist. You’ll feel that mysterious power in a minute.” He took the mist into his space, and the large expanse of blue mist vanished in an instant. The fierce killing intent in the passage disappeared with it. Philip looked at the disappearing mist in excitement. He found something very good this time. The mist was obviously still in its growing stage, an ignorant little thing at present. The mist would grow under his help into a strong existence. He was glad to
Arachne and the others saw the mist and were frightened. They quickly hid beside the snake people without lurking in the dark anymore. “What’s up with the weird mist?” The spider people brought more people than Selma’s team this time. Everyone was squeezed in this place, making it a little crowded. The snake people looked at them in disdain, shocked that they had the nerve to approach them. “Don’t you see how crowded this place is? Stop squeezing your way inside!” Cavin said with disdain. Although Cavin looked like a timid child who anyone could bully, he was quite manly in a confrontation. Rabbit huffed at them in anger but did not know what to say. Arachne rolled her eyes. “This is obviously the only safe place around. Where should we go if not here? You can leave if you think it’s crowded,” Arachne sneered with disdain. They knew that Philip had entered the danger zone, so they wanted to stay close to keep abreast of his updated situation. However, they overlooked
Whether the fine wine or the delicious beast meat provided by Philip, their strength improved greatly after the meal, which was simply too good to be true. Everyone guessed whether eating such meat on a long-term basis would make their bodies stronger. “Our business will definitely soar if we have such meat on the menu!” Selma marveled solemnly. She knew how attractive the meat was to humans or other races. It was worth looking forward to a meal that could improve one’s strength. Moreover, they could feel their bodies slowly absorbing the meat’s energy without going to waste, and they did not have to go through the effort of absorbing it, which was simply amazing. When Philip and his people left after having their fill, Arachne followed them with her people. Ariadna was so jealous that her thoughts became distorted. If she had not been so stupid back then, she might have gotten the chance to sit with Philip and enjoy the meal too. She lost the chance because she was stupid and
