Zenith simply looked at Sinastro without making a move. After a long while, Sinastro said calmly, “What are you trying to say? Or rather, what will you do?” Zenith glanced at him and said, “Nothing. If you want to do something, go ahead, but I can guarantee you won’t leave this place alive.” Sinastro fell silent and looked at Zenith for a long time. On the side, Holy Lexie and the others hesitated to speak. Zenith did not look at them either. Finally, Sinastro sighed and said, “Sir, are you saying that you won’t take action against me if I leave now?” Sinastro knew very well that if Zenith attacked him, he would never leave this place alive today. Zenith was much stronger than him. When Zenith smothered his demonic energy just now, he was not only saving others but also intimidating him, which he did successfully. On the other hand, Philip looked at Zenith calmly. He could not figure out this great-great-granduncle of his, but he knew very well what Zenith was implying.
Zenith’s smile disappeared, and he became serious. Philip was taken aback and quickly said, “I understand.” Zenith smiled again. This was how the Clarke family trained their people and why they still thrived today. Revenge had to be taken by the individual! If the other party oppressed the weak, the family would stand up, fight back against the other party, and plunder some practices resources for one’s use. However, killing others had to be done by the individual. This method could maximize the younger generation’s strengths and abilities. After all, the Clarke family would not raise useless children! Philip understood Zenith’s intention and said nothing. Zenith turned to Jurgen and said with a smile, “Mayor Jurgen, the purpose of this talent meeting is aimed at the ancient ruins of White Imperial City, right? Why don’t you tell us about the changes in the ruins?” Philip looked at Jurgen in astonishment. He had no idea that this talent meeting was held for this pur
Philip fell silent. They walked to the tea table, where Zenith motioned for Philip to sit down. After taking their seats, Zenith said, “Let me give you a summary of the situation.” Philip looked at Zenith solemnly. “Go ahead, Grandpa.” Zenith nodded and said, “With your current strength, you can't know too much about our family affairs. In fact, few people on the Starfall Continent know about the Clarke family. Everyone only knows about the nine royal families but not the forces above them. Perhaps the great emperor of the ancient Heavenly Court knows, but that’s not important. “This time, our existence will be exposed gradually. Today can be considered our first appearance.” Zenith glanced at Philip meaningfully. Zenith knew of Philip’s existence the moment he arrived in Lookout City. As a level nine holy being, Zenith was extremely sensitive to his bloodline. However, Philip was not in danger at that time, and the family did not say that they should expose their ide
Zenith raised his eyebrows and looked at Philip with approval. “You’re right. The god is the controller of the continent. The stronger the continent, the stronger the god. Strictly speaking, the Starfall Continent is just a world created by a lower god.” A hint of emotion crossed Zenith's eyes. Philip became excited. According to Holy Snyder’s guess, if Philip’s laws of five elements could reach the holy tier at the same time, he could create a world that contained life. Could he be considered a god by then? However, the next moment, Zenith glanced at him and said, “Don't think that you can create a world once your laws of five elements reach the holy tier. Even if you can, it’ll only be a domain world. “A real world requires time, space, light, darkness, the five elements, and other various laws and properties. You don’t have most of these things, such as time, laws of dark, and various other laws.” Philip's excited expression collapsed, replaced by helplessness. “Then w
Zenith smiled at Philip and said, “These are not things you should know now. You'd better focus on your practice first. We’ll talk about it when you become a holy being or even a god.” Zenith waved his hand and added, “Back to the topic on hand, let me tell you what Jurgen told me just now.” Philip had no choice but to collect his thoughts, sit upright, and look at Zenith attentively. Unfazed, Zenith told Philip everything Jurgen said. A drastic change had occurred in the ancient ruins of White Imperial City. In the past, the ancient ruins of White Imperial City was just a city. Some lucky people would be teleported to various locations and get some things. However, since a hundred thousand years ago, this occurrence had reduced to the point that no one could even enter the various mysterious places in White Imperial City. This time, the ancient ruins of White Imperial City had formed a complete world! Philip was astounded. “A complete world?” Zenith said, “Yes. The a
Philip was dumbfounded and puzzled. “In that case, isn’t it impossible for indomitable pseudo holy beings to enter White Imperial City?” Zenith shook his head and said, “Don’t you remember? I mentioned Monster City in White Imperial City just now. There are countless exotic beasts in Monster City, and all of them are practitioners too. There's no shortage of exotic beasts in the outside world. "After all, after so many years of recuperation and reproduction without anyone to control them, there must be many high-level existences. Killing an exotic beast of the same level is the same as killing a human practitioner of the same level.” Philip nodded thoughtfully. In that case, fighting between indomitable pseudo holy beings could be avoided to the greatest extent. Of course, if someone had a grudge against another, fighting could still happen. Anyway, two options were given. Exotic beasts or humans, but in fact, neither was easy to kill. The exotic beasts in this world must
This was the Clarke family, so full of pride and dignity! This remark also showed the status of the Clarke family on the Starfall Continent. However, Philip also knew that he should not rely on the Clarke family too much. It was true with the development of Big Dipper Palace too. After all, it was not the same Clarke family on Earth. This Clarke family must have many talented descendants. If Philip was too conspicuous, some people in the Clarke family would definitely be unhappy. If that happened, many people in the family might target him. He was a smart man, so he would not return until he was strong enough. “I understand,” Philip said softly. Zenith waved his hand. A burst of energy surged from his palm and pushed Philip out of the yard. Following Zenith’s cue, Philip turned around and left. … The mayor’s residence. After the incident with Sinastro, no one was in the mood for the so-called talent competition. Jurgen announced the end of the event and left w
Dane knew very well that if he killed Philip outside, the news would definitely reach Zenith’s ears. If that happened, Dane would die for sure. Thus, he could only make a move inside. He could even shift the blame to others to protect himself. Frowning, Palmer said helplessly, “Are you sure you want to do this? I don’t think it’s good for us.” Dane fell silent. His clothes fluttered in the breeze, and his silhouette looked a little forlorn. After a long while, Dane sighed. “It’s a choice made out of desperation. The ancient Heavenly Court is not comparable to the royal families, after all. Let’s decide later.” Dane shook his head with a grimace and left. Palmer had no choice but to follow suit. … In the yard of the residence of Lookout City's mayor where the White Marsh royal family was located. An old man was leisurely drinking tea with Adonis and the others. Adonis asked cheerfully, “Sir, you certainly know how to enjoy life. Aren’t you afraid that something wil
“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
