The couple finally realized what it was like to be blind. As the two walked down the stairs according to their memories and headed in the direction of the academy, a familiar voice came from the right. “Teehee, Mom and Dad, why are you leaving without me?” The couple screamed in unison. The man waved the sachet back and forth in front of him. Suddenly, his right hand hit something, and the sachet in his hand fell to the floor. The next second, he lost his voice. Similar scenes happened in every ordinary family. Those who listened to instructions hid in their rooms without encountering any problems. If there was one disobedient person in a family, things would end up in a massacre. Philip had no time to bother about it. The sachets he made were meant to be salvation for ordinary people. At this moment, the sealed land had fallen. Philip saw a door of the villa slowly open. Maybe the other party chose to open this door because they sensed the presence of the sealing
“We can't know for sure if we can find something that makes people stronger, but this door is enough to drive some people crazy.” Philip could tell that something was definitely strange about this door. Just one door made so many practitioners lose their minds to the point of self-mutilation, which proved how powerful and weird it was. With a sudden buzz, the sealed door exploded with a white light that shrouded everyone. Before Philip and the others could react, the white light took everyone away. By the time everyone returned to their senses, they found themselves on a barren land. An abyss lay in front of them, clearly a dead end. They could only turn back. “Is this what it looks like in the sealed land?” Philip was confused to find himself there. “Verge Tower, why was I sucked in?” Philip could not figure it out. He had too many secrets. Everything would be over if he was exposed. Philip asked Verge Tower, curious to find out why he was taken in by the stone doo
Other practitioners were nervous at first, but their worries were quickly replaced by excitement after hearing the comments of the people of Mistral Temple. This opportunity fell on their heads for no reason. Everyone searched around in the sealed land for their opportunities. They walked ahead and soon saw a huge palace in front of them. Aslan was very excited and circled the palace. “This palace looks very grand.” As soon as they entered the palace, a transparent barrier appeared in front of them and trapped them on one side. Meanwhile, a horde of weird-looking beasts appeared on the other side. The transparent barrier separated both parties to ensure their safety. The powerful beasts simply appeared in the palace, and their enormous bodies made the huge palace look smaller. The transparent barrier separated both parties so well that no one could hear each other. Philip searched around the palace, wondering what he could find. At this moment, the dim palace li
A sword appeared in Philip's hand, and he swung it at the skeleton’s skull. The skull shattered, and lightning poured into the bones. The skeleton fell apart and turned into dust. As he recalled the earlier attack, Philip made a discovery. Although the power he used every time weighed at least several thousand kilograms, the strength of the skeletons was gradually increasing. The initial force of 500 kilograms gradually reached 1,000 kilograms. Philip had a feeling that if the skeletons were given a chance to reassemble again, their strength might reach 1,500 kilograms or more. By then, even Philip might be no match for them. Sure enough, rays of light zoomed at the piles of bones, and the bones reassembled again. This time, the skeletons were faster and stronger than before. Philip scowled darkly. His guess was spot on. The broken bones would reorganize and become stronger each time. Philip wanted to know what was the ray of light that hit the bones just now but coul
Initially, everyone gloated and thought they could take care of these monsters easily. Later, they realized that these skeletons were terrifying and simply not something they could deal with. “Why didn’t you say so earlier? This is terrifying!” “We’re doomed. I thought I was quite powerful, but the world was simply playing a joke on me! Everyone yelled in a panic when they realized this serious problem. However, it was too late. Not everyone could deal with the enhanced skeletons. They simply ran around trying to dodge the skeletons’ attacks. Reality proved that it was useless. The skeletons were much faster than them. Some people were hit by the skeletons and fell to the ground, howling in pain. Other arrogant people wanted to challenge the skeletons and had one of their arms chopped off. Philip felt helpless to see their misery. It was not that easy to wipe out so many skeletons. More importantly, they could not find a way to solve this problem. The people of Mist
The beasts and humans killed in battle would turn into bones piled up in the corner as if receiving baptism. Philip did not doubt that the corpses of these beasts and humans would one day turn into skeletons to fight against them. The people of Mistral Temple felt like they were going to have a mental breakdown. It felt like a dream to them. “Impossible. How could the ancient book deceive us?” “But they're still appearing after having been killed several times!” “Teacher, you have to save us. Many of our comrades have died!” The clergies of Mistral Temple ran around in a panic. They knew they were in deep trouble now. However, not all skeletons had the same strength after resurrection. That depended on their opponents. The skeletons destroyed by Philip would resurrect according to his standards, while weaker opponents might only achieve the same results after four rounds compared to what Philip could achieve in three rounds. After discovering this secret, everyone sto
Hearing the screams around them, Aslan and the others quickly checked on their people and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming everyone was fine. Those who died were weaker practitioners who were less guarded, mostly casual practitioners or members of large families. Philip could not do anything about it. He was not a god and could not protect everyone. After absorbing enough blood, the bone palace became spookier. An eerie red light kept flashing in the palace. The dismembered skeletons healed instantly and became stronger. After they returned to normal, they attacked Philip and the others with everything they had. Philip dared not drop his guard and quickly brandished his weapon. He did not know if the resurrected skeletons had become stronger. “These bones should be cooked in broth,” Philip frowned as he muttered under his breath. The force of these skeletons had exceeded 10,000 kilograms. Philip thought he could buy some time by dismembering the skeleton
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief for that narrow escape. Philip looked outside nervously only to find a huge pond. To be precise, they were deep underwater now. They were surrounded by bones that looked like they belonged to a beast. The white bones were hundreds of meters long and looked spooky with a red luster. They were trapped inside the palace, making it difficult to escape. Philip could only wait quietly for things to progress. Although the threat from the skeletons had ceased, they were facing new problems. The palace was shrinking rapidly, and they were trapped inside. With hundreds of people packed into the small space, it was very crowded. The remaining beasts were squeezed against the walls, unable to stand any longer. To vent their frustrations, the beasts simply crashed against the walls, trying to smash the palace into pieces, but it was futile. Tens of thousands of kilograms of force attacked the walls of the palace without leaving a mark, which prov
Everyone was dumbfounded. No one thought that Ronan would take action without paying any heed to them. Cameron panicked and ordered his men to stop Ronan, “Guards, take action! You have to stop Ronan!” His face turned pale, and he wished that the guards could kill Ronan. However, he suddenly remembered the deal between the businessman and himself. “Wait, don’t kill him. I want him alive. I need him for something important!” Cameron shouted nervously as if he was sure that his guards would defeat Ronan. Other than the guards, other family members also stepped forward. They wanted to show off their strength. Seeing this, Philip waved to Ronan. He would take action if required. Ronan waved his hand indifferently in response. He did not need Philip’s help for now. He was strong enough to take care of it. At this time, Rabbit appeared drowsily. Rabbit led a carefree life, and Philip always let him be, so he was an idle rabbit. After Cameron and the others saw Rabbit, their e
Ronan became more confident after the chat with Philip. If anyone dared to mess with him, he would not hesitate to teach them a good lesson. Cameron looked around but did not see Rabbit. He was worried but went straight to the point. “My child, after all these years, have you finally decided to return to the family?” Cameron smiled as he attempted the emotional approach as if Ronan had lived outside over the years because of his own decision. Hearing that, Ronan coughed and nearly threw up. Cameron was really good at blaming him. “What do you mean? Did I ask you to kick me out of the house?” Ronan's eyes flashed with anger. As a weak and powerless child back then, he was kicked out of the house right after his mother’s death. That feeling was really humiliating. All his grievances over the years exploded at this point. He could not tolerate these hypocritical people anymore. Cameron noticed Ronan’s reaction and knew that it was bad. This matter was out of his control. Ronan
“Since you've accepted my things, you should…” Cameron rubbed his hands excitedly, looking at Rabbit smugly and expectantly. His men looked at Rabbit in delight. It would be great if they could get storage space. Rabbit shook his head in disdain. “What are you thinking? Do you think you’re worthy of me? You don’t even have a measly storage space. Who are you to bargain with me?” Rabbit kicked the nearest person away. “Don’t bother me again or that’ll be your outcome!” He hopped back into the house. He was not afraid that they would mess with him. Cameron was shocked that Rabbit would go back on his word after taking their things. He was furious. Those were the treasures of the family. It would be a disaster if they lost them. However, it was clearly not the right time to dwell on it. Cameron decided to talk to Rabbit again tomorrow. He had to talk to Ronan anyway. It would be best if he could fool them. “Let’s get some rest for the night and talk about it tomorrow morning
Cameron persuaded Rabbit excitedly. In his opinion, he was halfway to success. Rabbit nodded. “Give me what you have for now. At least show me your sincerity. You should know that the guy inside offered me a high price!” Rabbit fooled Cameron. He wanted to know what Cameron could come up with. Just crystals alone would be a letdown. Hearing that, Cameron waved to his men, signaling them to take out all the good things from the warehouse, at least to fool Rabbit for the time being. His men reluctantly went to the warehouse and took out all the treasures they had collected. Anyway, it was just for show and would not really be given to the rabbit, so they did not object. It would be a great deal if these treasures could attract a guardian beast. Rabbit nodded with satisfaction at these things. He waved his hand, and everything vanished from those people’s hands. Everyone was shocked and wondered what was going on. There was no such thing as storage space in this world. They ha
It felt good to have a capable henchman around. Philip could not be bothered to waste his precious time on these losers. Cameron and his men reached the door when a rabbit fell from the sky. The old woman and the others knew the rabbit’s habits and warned everyone to watch out. However, the elites were caught off guard and looked around blankly, wondering what was going on. The next moment, the loudmouthed man was knocked to the ground. Rabbit landed on the guy and started punching and kicking, certain that the man would suffer the utmost pain from this beating. Cameron and the others were dumbfounded by this scene. They had heard of powerful spirit pets but had never seen a rabbit as a spirit pet. The rabbit was good at fighting, so it should not be an ordinary creature. “Go away and stop bothering us. I’ll kill you if I don’t get a good night’s sleep! Let me show you what I can do!” Rabbit swung his fists seemingly at random, but every punch landed. Cameron stood far aw
At this time, Cameron and his men returned in the middle of the night. He saw the Claude family members crying as soon as he returned. They were bruised and battered from a beating, looking utterly miserable. Cameron was furious that someone would dare to bully his family members while he was away. “What's going on? Why are you in this state? Did someone cause trouble while I was away?” Cameron was angry and in disbelief, feeling that something was strange. Everyone nodded nervously. “Ronan is here!” The old woman who suffered the worst beating was very upset and glared viciously in Ronan’s direction. “Cameron, although you left me in charge while you were away, I can’t do it anymore. Ronan kept messing with us and even brought some people to beat us up!” The old woman made up stories and described Ronan as an unforgivable evildoer. Cameron scowled, but he could not believe it. “What did you say? Ronan actually hit someone?” He was unwilling to believe it. Although Ronan
Philip took out some fine wine, which was worthless to him but priceless to Ronan. Ronan laughed at Philip’s nonchalance and patted his shoulder. The two of them sat down and started drinking. Rabbit joined in the fun and swallowed the wine in big gulps. Although the alcohol content was a bit high for Rabbit, he enjoyed it happily. They quickly felt slightly tipsy. Although they were practitioners, they did not use any techniques to sober up. It was okay to be a little intoxicated as long as it did not affect them too much. It was rare to find a friend who they could click so well with, so it was a blessing to get drunk together. As they drank happily, the aroma of the wine wafted out. Everyone smelled the fragrance and looked for the source of the scent. They quickly found Ronan's residence and scowled. That smell proved that he had to be drinking good wine in there. “How is he worthy of such fine wine?” “Just a whiff of that wine clears my head, so it has to be good s
Although victory was not confirmed, they had to take part. Since the other party said so, they had no choice but to win. At the thought of the other major families, Cameron scowled as he felt the pressure. “I heard that you have a non-human descendant in your family,” the other party said with a smile, but it was uncertain if his intention was to mock Cameron or to find out some information. The Claude family scowled as they instantly figured out who the other party was talking about—Ronan. This person had disgraced the whole family. “We do have someone like that in our family. Back then, one of our youths was restless and impulsive…” Cameron wanted to explain, but the other party interrupted him. The mysterious man smiled with satisfaction at Cameron’s admittance. “If that’s the case, it’s great. Let this person take part in the competition. I’m interested in his strength and want to try it out in person. “Other than your victory, this person has to take part in the comp
By treating Ronan badly, the people would receive some rewards from the higher-ups. After a while, everyone got used to it. Even the wine sold to Ronan was cheap wine that no one wanted. “There’ll be a place for me in the world somehow!” Philip shook his head. These people’s attitude was strange, indeed, but he did not think that they could not find a roof over their heads. Since the Claude family was so arrogant, they could take over their place. Thinking of this, Philip took them back to the Claude family's manor and knocked on the door with a smile on his face. The guards were horrified to see Philip and Ronan again. They did not forget how badly they were beaten earlier. Thus, no one dared to stop them from marching in for fear that they would be beaten again. They could not afford the consequences. The Claude family quickly learned about their appearance. They scowled, their faces turning ashen. “Why are you here again?” “We already told you that they won't be ba
