Philip’s scent could be concealed, but it was different for Aslan. He had been imprisoned for thousands of years, and the ants were very familiar with his scent. However, the enhanced pill could conceal his presence perfectly. As Philip headed to the Water Dragon Pond to look for Montel and Clementine, many people gathered at the lake outside the secret realm. They were the reinforcements sent by the major families. The families were waiting for the water to detoxify before they sent all their people to enter the secret realm. They were behind the academy in timing, so they had to make up for it with numbers. “Old Hobart, why don’t I see anyone from your academy coming?” Seeing only a few people around Mr. Hobart, the Millen family taunted him. He knew that those were the lecturers of the academy. They came here in a hurry just to make their presence known. They had no way to enter the secret realm. Mr. Hobart chuckled and said, “We've sent enough people inside. Besides,
Everyone knew that Philip was no ordinary character. His ability to enter the secret realm proved that he could get the heritage. Gradually, Philip’s name entered everyone’s conversation. “I didn't expect the guy from the Practitioner Academy to be so powerful to come up with such pills, but I do wonder if someone gave him the pills or he made them himself.” “Are you crazy? How could a young kid like him make such wonderful pills?” Everyone spoke incessantly, especially the Millen family, who expressed their dissatisfaction with Philip to the extreme. The Millen family was already angry with Philip for killing a member of their family, so they could hardly tolerate it when others sang his praises. Since Philip was not around, and they probably would not have anything to do with him in the future, they might as well badmouth him as much as possible. Mr. Hobart merely listened to their conversation quietly with a smile. … Philip and Aslan walked through the forest to th
Unlike humans, monster beasts could absorb energy by nature, so monster beasts were already stronger than most practitioners since birth. Aslan could no longer absorb energy on his own and was no different from an invalid. Hence, he had to first repair his energy veins before he could improve his strength and return to his original level. Aslan was fully aware of this and sighed helplessly, at a loss for what to do. “I once tried to use my energy to restore those damaged veins, but it was too difficult! My efforts bore no results at all and even consumed the little energy I had left.” Aslan was full of frustration. He never dreamed that he would experience this. After all, he was a member of the royal family, and it was embarrassing to lose the ability to practice. “Can you help me? If I can regain my peak strength, I can be of great help to you.” Aslan pinned all his hopes on Philip. For some reason, he had full confidence in Philip. He somehow felt that this young m
“Not only did that bird steal my things, but it also pooped on my head! It went too far!” Philip could totally imagine the scene. He was very interested in the treasure mentioned by Aslan and wanted to know what it was. “Since we have time, let’s go and take a look. The treasure flew out from the mountain back then, so we can head there.” Aslan turned into a huge lion and carried Philip on his back up the mountain. Aslan quickly made his way up the mountain with his huge size and agile movements. The day passed in the blink of an eye. Many people entered the secret realm one after another. The first batch of people who entered the secret realm were very lucky with no major casualties so far. However, things were different for the next batch. As soon as they entered the forest, they encountered the Marching Red Ants who were frantically searching for their enemies. The ants were good at fighting and appeared in troops, so their strength could not be underestimated. The
Philip was more perceptive than Aslan. Although the latter was very strong and belonged to the monster beast family, he was no match for Philip’s techniques. Philip’s perception was the best! Aslan looked at Philip curiously and asked, “How did you know there was a magic circle there? I came here before and didn’t notice anything.” Aslan looked at Philip with admiration. If not for Philip’s young age, he would have thought that Philip had been living here for a long time. Philip was embarrassed. He had no idea how to explain this. If he told the truth, it would seem that he was bragging. In any case, it would make no difference. Philip decided to keep quiet and retain an air of mystery. After sensing the magic circle, Philip felt a little nervous. There was more to it than met the eye, and Philip was neither good at making nor breaking magic circles. He worriedly searched through Verge Tower but found no books about magic circles, leaving him in a dilemma. If he could n
Aslan picked up some stones from the ground and threw them at the bird. However, the stones could not get close to the annoying bird at all. They shattered as soon as they reached the village. The bird flew to the village in fright. Aslan cursed indignantly as the bird vanished from his sight. He wished he could go back in time to a thousand years ago, when he would still have the chance to deal with this wretched bird. However, that was wishful thinking. He obviously could not deal with the bird and was humiliated again and again. “Philip, think of a way for us to enter this village. I want to catch that bird and make you some roasted bird meat! Your strength will be greatly enhanced after the meal. Trust me!” Aslan said viciously, hating the bird to the core. Philip chuckled at Aslan. He was definitely going to enter the village, but he had yet to figure out the way. He was baffled too. Philip tried to get closer to the village and found a strong force sucking him into
Aslan grimaced at Philip’s suggestion of tossing him over. “Forget it, I think you should toss me over instead.” In hindsight, how was Aslan going to bring him over? In that case, the first option would not solve the problem. To be on the safe side, Philip decided to go alone. Aslan was more exasperated at the thought of Philip acting alone. His life was bound to Philip’s. if something happened to Philip, he would not be spared either. Nonetheless, Aslan wanted to trust Philip. “Okay, since you have the galls for it, I’ll join you!” Aslan patted his chest as if to assure Philip. Philip nodded. After all, Aslan was an elite monster beast, and Philip trusted him. At Philip’s command, Aslan made a lifting motion. Philip stepped on his hand and jumped forward. Aslan used all his strength to throw Philip up. Philip underestimated Aslan’s strength and was sent flying. He quickly exceeded the range of the magic circle and entered the village. Philip was extremely
However, Aslan was not interested in this secret treasure at all. “I don’t care about the treasure. I just want to get my hands on that damned bird!” Aslan said viciously, wishing he could tear the bird into pieces. Philip laughed at their deep enmity. “Wow, you actually hate that bird so much. But this place definitely contains valuable treasures or there wouldn't be a divine beast standing guard here,” Philip said calmly as if he had uncovered everything. “A guardian divine beast?” Aslan exclaimed in surprise. “Yeah, let’s not deal with it for now. You have to wait until I get the thing before you can touch that bird,” Philip said. He was afraid that Aslan could not hold back his anger and seek revenge. Aslan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Philip would stop him from dealing with that legendary divine beast. He really hated that damned bird very much. Philip wanted to tease Aslan but lost the mood after looking at the cave filled with bones.
