The members of the Nyx Guild were angry when they realized they had met a tough opponent this time. “Damn it, these people are not our comrades from another evil cult at all. That guy’s technique can oppress us!” Cain roared angrily. He knew he would only end up dead if he wasted any more time here. He had to escape! Before Philip’s second move landed, he grabbed the person next to him and shoved him toward Philip. Philip slashed out and rendered that person into a pile of ashes. “Stop him!” Cain used his people to stop Philip’s attack. He took out a charm from his pocket and activated it with his blood. The next second, he disappeared in front of everyone. Before the members of the Nyx Guild realized what was going on, Philip had defeated them. Philip was not surprised to see Cain leaving in a panic. Killing them was too easy for him. His goal was not to kill these minions. Instead, he wanted to attract all the people from this guild and catch them in one fel
The best way to avoid future retaliation was to get rid of everyone. Philip's thinking was always so simple and crude. In his opinion, it was not too difficult to deal with them, but he had to watch out for their underhanded tricks. “I feel so happy here that I don’t want to return to my guild anymore,” Delia grumbled with anticipation. Philip smiled helplessly. Delia had to return to her guild. She was the young leader of the Smith Guild. How could Philip keep this talented girl here for no reason? With the protection of Philip and the others, the children did not pay any attention to what just happened. They soaked in the potion baths and gradually relaxed. To Philip's surprise, the twin siblings were the strongest among them. They did not feel much pain, and their potion turned clear the fastest. Philip was very surprised by their talents and decided to groom them properly. Simply based on their good personalities alone, Philip would never treat them badly. … Mea
Shawn noticed everyone’s dissatisfaction and finally decided to use the most extreme method to solve this problem. “Don't worry, everyone. I’ll contact someone from the reclusive faction to avenge us. Leave this to me. I’ll handle it perfectly,” Shawn said smugly, confident that he could take care of Philip. “Since you have a way to resolve it, we’ll leave it to you. I hope you can restore the guild's reputation as soon as possible and stop those arrogant guys from getting their way,” Joseph said loftily, very unhappy with Shawn. He would take this opportunity to sow discord between other elders and the leader. After dealing with Shawn, his status would rise quickly. Taking the position of guild leader would not be a problem. Shawn nodded. He knew exactly what Joseph was thinking. “Don’t worry, Great Elder Joseph, I won't let you down,” Shawn said through gritted teeth. He turned around and returned to his room without wasting any more time with these people. He had to
The other party spoke nonchalantly without regarding Philip as a difficult opponent. Shawn told him everything he knew about Philip, and the black figure vanished after that. As the energy fluctuations dissipated into thin air, Shawn relaxed. The few minutes of conversation were enough to fill him with fear. He wondered how the other party became so powerful. Since he had received the promise from the reclusive faction, he believed he could make a comeback with the Oncidium Guild soon. Shawn felt a little nervous as he stared at the crack that just appeared on the jade token. He recalled how he met the other party. The Oncidium Guild was not very powerful back then and was in a state of stagnation. Just when he thought there was no hope left, he saw an old man in plain clothes walking past his door. The old man said that he had a good impression of Shawn and wanted to give him a technique, which could help him take over other factions that were about to close down.
Philip did not ask Montel to make a prediction for him, but the senior members of the Zucker family were doing it for him at this time. Their existence was to serve the descendants of the Clarke family. Other than completing some daily duties, their most important task was to make predictions for Philip and pay attention to every movement in his life. Therefore, the Zucker family had to be very strong to prevent any backlash. “Patriarch, based on my prediction, I think something is wrong.” An old man with gray hair frowned. He was someone with stronger fortune-telling abilities in the Zucker family. The others also looked at their prediction results with troubled expressions. “There's something wrong with this. This prediction points to someone from a reclusive family or faction. Are those old freaks making a comeback?” The Zucker family was puzzled and nervous. The secular practice world usually did not interact with the reclusive world. The reclusive faction was ver
“Dad, why didn’t you contact me through the software like you usually do? Is there an emergency?” Montel could not figure out why his father would call him. Did he miss him so much? His father chastised Montel before he finished talking, “Have you forgotten all about your fortune-telling abilities already? I can tell at a glance that you haven't made any predictions for the young patriarch recently. We noticed something in our predictions.” Montel listened to his father’s message and froze. From his father, he learned a lot about the reclusive factions, which he had never heard of before. After the call, Montel was a little confused and could not react for a while. Several minutes had passed before he returned to his senses. Montel quickly grabbed hold of Philip and took him to a corner. “Why didn’t you answer your phone?” Philip was puzzled and took out his phone, which had turned off because the battery was out of power. “It’s been a while since I’ve used a mobile p
The outside world was far better than the reclusive world in every aspect. If the other party came into contact with the secular world and fell in love with this place, they would have certain thoughts about it. With their strength, taking over this world was a piece of cake. Philip sneered. That stupid guild was simply asking for trouble. “What should we do next? Fight them?” Montel was wary. If the other party was really that powerful, it would be difficult for them to resist. Philip was cautious. He knew that this was the biggest problem he had ever encountered. Montel had never seen such caution in Philip before. He felt a little nervous and wanted to comfort Philip. “Tell Aslan and the others to leave the women here to look after the children. Let’s gather in the study.” Philip waved his hand and went to the study. Montel became serious and informed everyone about it. Everyone was laughing and joking earlier, but they fell silent upon seeing Montel’s expressi
“Cut the crap and spit it out,” Philip said in a huff. Aslan cowered in fear. Only Philip could intimidate him like this. “I’ve known about the reclusive factions long ago, but I’m most familiar with the Beast Taming Guild. That damned guild captured many of our people back then, and even I was not spared from harm. "Fortunately, my father was amazing enough to take me back from them, or I’d have been their slave now!” Aslan briefly recounted his story, and Philip's expression became serious. Through the Beast Taming Guild, he could already tell the difference between their practice levels. In today's secular world of practitioners, almost no one could raise a monster beast as a pet. However, the reclusive world had a specialized guild that captured and trained monster beasts. Philip had to admit that the reclusive world was very much ahead of the secular world. “Although the reclusive world sounds small and mysterious, there are many guilds as far as I know! Of course,
“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
