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
Death was commonplace in the world of practitioners. Philip stood in one corner and sensed his surroundings. A fierce battle seemed to be happening outside. However, the bone palace restricted their vision and senses, so Philip could not see what was happening outside. In a place where Philip and the others could not see, the huge beast skeleton was fighting with an ancient statue. They fought vigorously as if fighting for territory. A huge grave mound was piled up next to the two creatures. Dirt kept running down the mound as if something was trying to get out. While the two creatures fought, a loud noise shocked everyone, and Philip finally saw the situation outside. He saw two strange creatures fighting, but before he could react, the mound exploded not far away, shocking everyone. The mound burst open, and a young man emerged from inside. The man had the face of a six-year-old child, which looked very bizarre. “Philip, did you see that guy? How can someone look like
“Don’t be angry.” A dainty woman nervously approached the old man, trying to appease his anger. However, the old man was very angry and refused to listen. With a flick of his finger, the woman instantly turned into dust. Seeing this, the other women knelt in horror and dared not approach him anymore. “Anyone who dares to mess with me, Dustin, will be killed!” Dustin Lindell was very angry and wished he could cut the person who owned the sealing stone into pieces. Anyone from the Guzo Continent would definitely recognize this old man. There was a mysterious profession called engraver on the Guzo Continent. An engraver could engrave various spells on people's bodies that produced various temporary effects. This art could only be engraved on the human body. Although painful, the effect was quite significant. Certain spells could increase speed while others could increase strength temporarily, so this art was quite amazing. It was extremely difficult to learn this art.
Now that Dustin had lost all contact with the sealed land, staying here would only invite trouble and might even cost him his life. In that case, his only choice was to leave. After Dustin left, Philip noticed that everything in the surroundings seemed to have lost all life. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Philip exited the palace. The others followed Philip's lead and watched the surroundings carefully, fearing that something might happen. Philip tried to punch the statue and found that it was very hard, stronger than the bones. Philip guessed that Dustin made the statue. However, the statue had greatly weakened after the earlier battle. Since the statue was not activated, only an empty husk was left. Philip punched the statue several times and finally shattered it. He then solemnly looked in the direction where the old man was headed. He did not know who the old man was or where he came from. If he came from Philip’s world, Philip had to be very careful, because
The next moment, they appeared in the world where Philip was. Coincidentally, they bumped into the arrogant Claude family. They happened to land at the Claude family’s new residence. The Claude family members were unhappy to see visitors at the door of their new home. “Who are you? Why are you here? You look weird. What are you?” Sadie happened to pass by at this time, and she scowled at the sight of these people. “This is no place for beggars. Go somewhere else to beg for food!” Sadie’s sharp tongue infuriated everyone. “How dare you, woman? Do you know who we are?” Weaver retorted furiously. He never dreamed that a woman would yell at him like this. No one had ever dared to insult him. “So what? Don't forget that we're the Claude family. Do you think you can mess around here?” While Sadie was talking, someone rushed over and looked at her excitedly. “I have news about Philip. Do you want it?” Sadie was excited to hear that. She forgot about the spider people and pulle
Everyone shook their heads upon hearing that. “We want to follow you not only because of your strength but also because you saved us. Our foundation and power are quite shaky at this point. It’s best if we can find a solid backer.” The three unique races handed their tokens to Philip. The three tokens were put together and dazzled brightly. Philip was curious about the tokens, which clearly had nothing to do with the ancestral land. They had the tokens in hand but could not figure out the situation. “Putting the three tokens together is proof that the three races have chosen to pledge our allegiance to you. It can be seen as a contract,” Fitz said excitedly. It was the first time they used this function. Philip was surprised to sense their allegiance when they activated the tokens. “In that case, you may come with me.” He took everyone into his Verge Tower space and left this place with them. He knew that he had picked up a huge bargain. All of them were not weak and cons
“Philip, I sense a seal in that man's body. I think that seal is preventing him from leaving this place. The seal is totally trapping him. If no one can help him to unlock that seal, he can forget about leaving this place.” Philip was surprised that Puffy managed to discover the problem in Fitz’s body. Before this, Puffy was still getting used to their language, so he could not communicate with Philip effectively. Now that he was more proficient, he could manage some basic communication with Philip and convey some important information. “This is not only affecting him but also everyone else. Everyone has a seal that binds them here. If they want to leave this place, they have to remove that constraint!” While Philip interacted with Puffy, the others looked at them anxiously. From their point of view, Philip fell silent after that strange remark. It confused them very much. “What are you trying to say?” Fitz said excitedly. He could not wait to hear what Philip had to say. H
The Claude family members went on a rampage and seized the square, building their house right in the middle of the city. Their house had been destroyed and needed to be rebuilt. They could do whatever they wanted with their strength now. The city guards tried to speak to them but were driven out by the Claude family. Several batches of city guards had been deployed, but no one could deal with them. The Claude family members were like gods of war. Whether men, women, young, or old, they could knock their opponents down easily. The most arrogant person among them was a woman named Sadie. She was so powerful that it felt as if she was above everything. Some people had heard of her name and knew that she used to be an ordinary person in the family. All of a sudden, she became the pillar of the Claude family. “If anyone knows Philip's whereabouts, tell us at once. Once we find Philip, we’ll definitely reward you handsomely!” Sadie said arrogantly to the crowd. She was very calm and
Without reason on their side, the spider people could not do anything. Now that everyone supported Philip, they would not give in to the spider people so easily. “Well, since your plan is that good, I think you should sacrifice one of your own people, at least to appease the magpie people." “I say Philip is right. Those guys are just putting on an act. They’ll never kill one of their own. Don’t be fooled by those hypocrites!” “We don’t want to work with the spider people!” All the races expressed their opinions. No one wanted anything to do with the spider people at all. They had gone too far. It would spell trouble to get involved with them. “Hehe, good riddance to bad rubbish. The spider people have always been up to no good. You get what you deserve!” Rabbit hopped excitedly, happy that the spider people had become the target of public outrage. “I believe the magpie people won't mind. We did it on the spur of the moment, so I think we should be forgiven. After all, t
Fitz felt particularly bad at the thought that he failed to protect his people. He vowed to take revenge. People of other races shared the same thoughts. Everyone thought that their people had gone out to seek ways to leave but were met with an accident. Unexpectedly, they were harmed by the spider people, which was simply despicable and unacceptable. “You just need to sacrifice one more person for everyone to leave this dangerous place and lift the curse from us,” Weaver said. Everyone's eyes turned bloodshot at his words, shocked that Weaver would say that so openly. “Hehe, you’re really bold to perform a sacrifice. Why not use one of your own?” Fitz laughed and stared at Weaver. Weaver scowled. Of course, the idea crossed his mind, but the records stated that they had to use other races for sacrifice. Using their own people as sacrifice would void it, so they had to use others. This would not only reduce the other party’s manpower but also save a lot of effort. However,
Philip wanted to figure out what the spider people were up to. It looked like they had been planning this for a long time, which was terrifying. He had to let the others know about this. Everyone had the right to know. Moreover, the pitiful magpie woman was scared out of her wits. Philip had to bring her home. “Let's go back now. We’ll explore this place later. Do you want to stay here or go out with us?” Philip looked at Celeste curiously. He did not think she was brave enough to venture out. Sure enough, Celeste tugged at the corner of her clothes as she pondered. “I'll go out with you!” Celeste finally decided after much deliberation. Since she had decided to follow Philip, there was no point in hiding here anymore. She had to pluck up the courage. Celeste had lived in the forest for very long and had never gone out before, so she was curious about the outside world. “I want to see the outside world!” Celeste said nervously. Philip simply nodded without a word. The
At this point, Philip sprang into action. He appeared in front of the other party, catching them off guard. “Who allowed you to kill people for no reason?” The spider people were shocked by Philip’s sudden appearance. They were frightened to see someone there, and he was none other than the human who had strayed into this place by accident. The spiders panicked and wanted to run, but Philip quickly released Puffy. The spider people could not escape because of the curse placed on them and also because of Puffy's existence. The passage only allowed entry, not exit. When anyone stepped into that passage, they would not only come under Puffy’s attack but also suffer a gut-wrenching pain. They felt something was wrong when they tried to escape. Someone noticed Puffy approaching them and yelled in fear, “It’s that deadly thing!” Someone recognized Puffy and ran away screaming. They had no chance of winning against Puffy, so they had no choice but to run. Seeing someone running aw
Philip could tell that Celeste wanted to help, but she was too weak to do anything. “Don’t worry so much. Let’s wait and see what happens. If possible, we won’t stand by and do nothing. These people are simply outrageous.” Philip did not have a good impression of the spider people, and this incident made it worse. “Not bad!” Rabbit hopped onto Celeste’s shoulder excitedly. Ever since he found out that Celeste had no ability, he liked her even more. He liked people who had no combat power. Except for that extra eye, there was nothing strange about her. Besides, she was quite a beautiful woman, so Rabbit was fond of her. “Philip will take care of it. Don’t worry about it. He’s an outstanding man who fights for justice. You’ll have a good life if you follow Philip, especially since you have that ability but are powerless to take care of yourself. I’m sure you need someone to protect you,” Rabbit chattered away. Rabbit knew how special Celeste’s ability was. She would be of gr
