Philip accepted the clay doll and gave Buck an emerald pendant as a gift. Philip had carved some formations of the pendant that produced some special effects, worth hundreds of such clay dolls. At Buck’s level, however, he could not see anything different about this pendant. He just thought it was a good accessory. Buck was very moved by Philip’s gesture. Of course, he did not think that the gift was valuable. He accepted it gratefully out of courtesy and made a weird pose. Philip thought his reaction was strange but did not take it to heart. Maybe he came from a different culture and acted differently. At least Philip had never seen anyone putting their hands together when thanking others. After saying goodbye, Philip turned around and left. The rich man hugged his girlfriend and glanced at Buck smugly. He thought that Buck was just an ordinary rich man. At any rate, he was a practitioner. Buck would be shocked if he displayed his skills. “Hey, Fatty, do you wa
Buck merely walked away without a word or retaliation. Rich was puzzled. Why did nothing happen with his attack? Rich could not figure it out, but he never considered Buck’s strength. In his opinion, he was the strongest person around. How could a fat man like Buck be a practitioner? The charming woman stood beside him in confusion. “Rich, why didn’t you teach him a lesson? He has to suffer a beating for his arrogance!” The woman was very unhappy and wished she could give Buck a good beating. She was simply furious at the sight of his departure. Rich waved his hand with no intention of chasing after Buck. “Forget it, it’s no big deal if he wants to be arrogant. I have other things to do. I don't want to waste my time.” He left without the woman, who felt a little flustered. She dared not stray away from her boyfriend on this unfamiliar island. If she got lost, she might not be able to find her way home. Most terrifyingly, there was no shop in sight, just a des
“Rich, let’s have a break. I can’t take this anymore!” The woman knew that Rich was a practitioner, so she spoke in a very pleasant manner and did not dare to offend him at all. Rich looked at her impatiently, angry that she was so useless. He was also frustrated that he could not find the mysterious treasure despite searching around. He heard a mysterious story before he came here. It was said that there was a mysterious treasure in West Ocean Island. Anyone who found the treasure could do whatever they wanted, even go to the legendary wonderland! Few people knew about this, so Rich wanted to take the lead in exploring West Ocean Island before the news spread. He thought he could easily find the treasure on his own. After all, it should be easy for a practitioner to find treasures. His repeated failures made him frustrated. He had never suffered such a setback all his life. Rich was very angry, and combined with the burden he had, Rich simply wanted to leave this
Philip felt his surroundings in confusion. He was clearly at the bottom of the ocean, but he was surrounded by forests and plants, which was simply surreal. If not for the fact that this was the bottom of the ocean, Philip would have thought that this was the real West Ocean Island. Philip smacked his thigh as this thought occurred to him. “Maybe this is the real West Ocean Island!” With this discovery, Philip felt excited and ran around the island. As expected, the island was exactly the same as marked on the parchment map. Indeed, this was the real West Ocean Island! Philip took out the map and began to study it carefully. After making sure of his position, he walked in the direction of the treasure. As Philip headed to the treasure, the other two were still running around at random. As time went by, even Buck became impatient. “It seems that this legend is false. I can't find any trace of the treasure despite circling around.” Buck sighed helplessly, feeling th
Rich could not even find a place to lay low when his energy was exhausted and wait for his energy to recover before moving on. “Damn it, what the hell is this?!” Rich fiddled with his phone in a panic. After confirming that there was no signal, he smashed the phone in anger. At this time, Buck noticed the raging Rich. Rich looked at Buck as if he saw hope and quickly chased after him. “Check if your phone has a signal. Call someone to pick me up! This earthquake is getting stronger. Who knows what will happen if we don’t leave now?” Rich anxiously urged Buck. This intense earthquake struck fear in Rich’s heart. Although he had experienced earthquakes before, it was scary to encounter such a huge earthquake in unknown waters. Buck glanced at Rich and left without a word. Rich was angry at Buck’s arrogance. He dashed in front of Buck and blocked his way. “How dare you disobey me again and again? Do you know that I’m a practitioner?” Rich was very angry and used his
A magical place like this should produce rare and unique treasures, but there was nothing else here except for that ordinary-looking door. The door was no different from the security door found in normal houses. It was even more broken down. Philip looked at this door with mixed emotions. Philip felt that it must be an illusion and started looking around, but he found nothing else—not even a plant. Philip was dumbfounded. He put the door into his Verge Tower space. After making sure nothing else was around, he left. This finding was surprising, indeed. Philip quickly reached the barrier and jumped out. He immediately felt the vibration of the ocean floor. Something was heading to West Ocean Island at top speed. If he was not mistaken, it had to be a terrifying underwater creature. Philip hurried to the shore and solemnly looked into the distance. Based on the speed, the other party should reach here within ten minutes. This was not good news. Judging from th
Philip smiled and did not take it to heart. In his opinion, no matter how powerful the underwater creature was, it was no match for him. After all, his strength was not just for show. Buck did not take Philip seriously. “At your age, you must have experienced several large earthquakes before. But don’t think that you can turn a blind eye to this crisis just because of that. Hide when I tell you!” After saying that, Rich appeared in front of them. Rich planned to stay alone at first, but when he saw Philip and Buck together, he thought of a plan and quickly found his half-dead girlfriend. As the earthquake became stronger, Rich finally caught the presence of the underwater creature. Since this was not an earthquake but an attack from underwater creatures, Rich relaxed a little. He had to find Philip and Buck and throw the three of them out as food for the creature so that he could survive. He did not want to deal with underwater creatures. Who knew what terrifying
At this point, Buck no longer saw Philip as an ordinary person but as a god. “Are you a practitioner?” Buck asked Philip curiously. Buck always had a smile on his face, even when facing a crisis now. Philip had a good feeling about that. “Aren't you one too?” Philip smiled without much reaction. Buck had reached the peak of the seventh zone, just a step away from a half-step to the other shore. With a little effort, he should be able to reach that level before forty. Philip had assessed Buck. Although he was quite old, his ability was quite good compared to an ordinary practitioner. On the other hand, Rich was almost 30 and still acted like a playboy. With his weak abilities, he might not even reach a half-step to the other shore by the end of his life. “Your practice level is higher than mine at your young age. I feel embarrassed,” Buck said in embarrassment. He admired Philip from the bottom of his heart. Philip kept a low profile even though he was so strong. H
