Jax looked at Philip anxiously, at a loss for what to do. “Since you can’t wait to die, let me grant your wish.” Harris sneered, surprised that someone would seek death at his doorstep. At this moment, a member of the Spada Guild stepped forward and glared at Philip fiercely. “Senior Harris, you don’t have to do such a thing in person. Killing him will only dirty your hands. Let me do it. Dealing with this insignificant insect is a piece of cake.” The person who spoke was a burly man over two meters tall, looking very strong with muscles all over his body. Everyone glanced at Philip, horrified by the difference in stature between Philip and that man. Although Philip had a stout figure too, it was far from that man who was over two meters tall. Everyone thought Philip was dead for sure. They turned away silently, unwilling to see Philip being killed. Only people from the Spada Guild were bold enough to kill someone in the downtown area of Imperial City. Jax looked at
“That stupid guy dares to use his bare hands to stop Lark’s fatal move? Doesn't he know that Lark is using his best attack?” Some people mocked Philip when they realized he was just a brainless fool. Philip overheard their comments and laughed at their naivety. “Let me show you absolute power today.” Philip did not dodge but blocked the attack with his hands. He easily stole the rod and swung it in his hands. Everyone was dumbfounded by his actions. Who would have thought that Philip could easily snatch the rod from Lark? Moreover, Philip easily resisted Lark’s powerful and deadly attack. It was simply surreal! “Wait a minute, what's going on?” “Where did this guy come from? He actually withstood Lark’s attack!” The people of the Spada Guild were dumbfounded at Philip’s strength. The onlookers were horrified. They had turned away from the tragic scene because no one thought Philip could withstand Lark’s attacks. Jax stared at Philip in shock. He knew that Philip w
At first, Harris thought that Philip would be ripped to pieces as long as Lark took action. Everyone would be in awe of the Spada Guild when they saw Philip's tragic end. Instead, Lark was defeated by Philip as soon as he made his move. Philip’s actions not only insulted Lark but also disgraced the Spada Guild. If word of this got out, everyone would think the Spada Guild was a pushover. Lark was ranked third among the internal members of the guild, and his strength could not be underestimated. It would be over once everyone found out that Lark had been defeated by an unknown person. Although Harris claimed to be the shorty’s brother, it was just in name. The shorty’s biological brother was the senior apprentice in the guild. As the second apprentice, Harris could only shamelessly claim to be his brother. The reputation as the senior apprentice was not to be trifled with. If they failed to take care of Philip, it would be the same as disgracing the senior apprentice, an
When the blood came into contact with the long whip, mysterious runes appeared on the whip. “You can brag in hell about being killed by this move of mine.” Harris laughed as he swung his whip to attack Philip. Countless shadows surrounded Philip, trying to besiege him! This move was Harris’ trump card. When Harris completed a big mission for the guild back then, an elder personally selected this technique for him! This technique was enough for him to reach the top! He could easily kill any number of people who tried to attack him. This powerful skill was called the Penumbra Technique. Combined with his whip as a magical weapon, this technique fully played an important role. Everyone panicked upon seeing Harris taking this so seriously. The members of the guild knew Harris very well. He had never been driven to this state before. Harris would only use the most powerful killing moves when competing against the members of the guild. Philip had to be very strong for Harri
“That's how it should be. This fight will only be interesting if you attack me with all you have, or it’ll be boring if I simply crush you in a one-sided match.” Everyone gasped at Philip’s arrogant tone. In fact, Philip thought Harris was a pretty good talent. He was young with good abilities. He would have a bright future if he developed properly on the right path. Thus, Philip felt exasperated at Harris' inexplicable provocation. Messing with Philip was never a good thing. The best outcome would be to destroy Harris' core so that he would never practice again. Although Philip was not a ruthless person, he was no saint either. Harris was dead for messing with him. Philip grabbed a cleaver from the side that the members left behind as a spare weapon. The cleaver was worthless, simply used as a tool for chopping firewood. In Philip’s hand, however, the cleaver came alive and hummed shrilly. Philip stroked the cleaver as if he could converse with it. “Don’t worry, you’
Philip used a small portion of his strength to gauge Harris’ level. As Philip continued to lower his level, he finally fought on par with Harris. Harris was so shocked that he regretted fighting Philip by now. He was complacent at first, thinking that Philip was not worth his time. Later, he realized that Philip was giving way to him. As time went by, however, he realized that something was wrong. Even though he tried his best, he could not penetrate Philip's defense at all, not even finding flaws in Philip’s movements. He was scared of this powerless feeling. He had never encountered such a difficult opponent before. ‘What’s going on? He looks no different from ordinary people, but why is he so powerful?’ Harris thought. Harris kept backing away, feeling too helpless to resist. If he could turn back time, he would do it even if he had to pay with everything he had. On the surface, the two seemed to be fighting on equal footing. However, Harris knew that it was a one-si
Endless energy poured into Harris. Soon, he became very powerful. The members of the Spada Guild widened their eyes in surprise. They recognized the pill Harris took. It was a level-enhancing pill, a nickname given by the guild members. Taking this pill would not increase their actual practice level but would only enhance their strength for a short time, maybe even double their current strength. It was a forbidden drug, and no one was allowed to use it. Someone would only use it as a last resort. A practitioner would suffer a serious backlash after taking the pill, maybe even death. The guild members quickly educated everyone about the side effects of the pill. The onlookers could not believe that Philip could drive Harris to this stage. They thought that Philip was just an arrogant person. However, he had the strength to go with it. At this point, they believed that it would be an honor for Philip even if Harris ended up killing him. Harris roared in anger and po
Philip used a lot of strength in this kick. Even if Harris’ energy core was not destroyed, he would be severely injured at least. It would be impossible for him to practice again. Suddenly, a figure appeared on the battlefield. Philip ignored the other party but continued with the kick. There was a cracking sound at the moment of impact, and the sound of the energy core breaking was audible. Philip saw a practitioner in black clothes in front of him. The man held the half-dead Harris in his arms as he glared at Philip solemnly. Harris fearfully used all his strength to look up at the practitioner in black before cowering in silence. His energy core was destroyed, and Harris could hardly move due to the excruciating pain in his body. “The senior apprentice is here!” Everyone exclaimed in horror as if the other party put a lot of psychological pressure on them. Harris sighed and said, “You’re finally here.” He could not muster the courage to say another word. He f
Rabbit hopped around the grandmaster and felt that the latter was not lying. Rabbit had weathered many storms with Philip. He knew that according to human legends, the elves should be noble creatures. They were always arrogant and avoided contact with other creatures. “Anyway, since we’re here, let’s take a look inside. Who knows if any surprises are waiting for us?” Rabbit comforted Philip, and Black Rabbit was startled by his words. “You seem disappointed by this discovery. It doesn’t make sense to me. Are you really not aware of this situation?” Amid Black Rabbit's confusion, everyone entered the territory to watch the fun. Since the guard was enjoying his wonderful life, he did not pay attention to the invaders. He was supposed to be on duty with another guard today, but he swapped the other guard out because he wanted to be on a date with this female elf. The two were having a great romantic time in the room. Philip and his people entered the territory of the elves w
Later, the humans attacked the stone monsters, leaving the stone woman the only remaining survivor. Then, the elves found her. In the end, she was enslaved and became the gatekeeper of the elves. “Don’t blame me for your bad luck if you refuse to believe me. The humans are not to be trifled with. I’m sure you guys are no match for them,” the stone woman said vehemently. She came here with good intentions to report her findings. She wanted to claim the credit, but the other party disregarded her. The stone woman fought Philip earlier and knew exactly how strong he was. Although she was weaker than the elves, she knew that Philip could crush them easily and they would not be able to do anything about it. The elf warrior who received the message did not report the incident but returned to his station happily. He had been flirting with his female companion before they were interrupted. He had finally found a suitable female elf after so many years of being single, so he had no
Black Rabbit squeezed out a flattering smile and nodded excitedly at Philip. “Don’t worry. I’ll lie to anyone but you. I’ve decided to see you as my master and follow you from now on.” Rabbit was disgusted by Black Rabbit’s flattering look. “We’ll arrive soon. Although that woman is a bit scary, she’s nothing compared to you.” Meanwhile, the stone woman arrived at the elves’ location. Since the forest belonged to them, and coupled with the natural characteristics of a stone, she was very fast and arrived at the elves' territory before Philip and the others. The stone woman knelt at the door and stared ahead in a panic. “Are the elves around? Please come out. I need to speak to you,” the stone woman shouted at the door anxiously. An elf walked out unhappily with a weapon in hand. “Why are you making a fuss here? Do you want to die?” The elves were very arrogant and would never allow such an ugly thing to make a fuss at their door. It was not only impolite but also affect
“I know how you managed to survive, but I’m not interested in it. Don’t worry, we’re not one of those people. I won’t do anything to you.” When the stone woman collected the stones, Philip realized that the stones were connected to the woman's body. The stones felt different from ordinary stones because they had been carefully nurtured by the woman, which was quite amazing. “Leave now. Stay no longer. I’m afraid to see humans now.” The stone woman trembled and took several steps back. She entered a cave and refused to show herself again. The stone woman had done no actual harm to them, and she was truly afraid of them. Philip waved his hand and led everyone away without further ado. He was not interested in that ugly woman. Black Rabbit hugged Philip's thigh in fear along the way, feeling extremely nervous. He had thought that Philip and his people were warriors of a certain race, but they turned out to be humans. After joining the humans, he had no way of backing out. He hat
Trapping her opponent with stones was the stone woman’s strongest killing move. Once this method failed, it proved that the opponent was strong—at least not someone she could deal with. At this point, she had no choice but to surrender. However, she had said so many harsh words earlier that she felt too embarrassed to back down now. “Why are you so strong?” Philip and the others did not hide their identities or disguise their appearances with fake ears and tails. The stone woman looked at them in puzzlement. “You don’t have any clear racial distinction, and I don’t sense any racial power in you. Are you humans?” the woman yelled in horror, shocked to see humans roaming freely in the world of the gods. Philip was puzzled, wondering how she came to that conclusion. He thought they looked pretty good. She could hardly determine that they were humans simply because they had no ears or tails. Seeing Philip's confusion, the stone woman knew her guess was right. These people in fr
“Are you looking for the elves? If so, you came to the wrong place. You might've had the chance to see the elves if you had taken a detour at the front, but now that you’re in my territory, you have no chance of getting out alive no matter how strong you are.” Philip nodded at her explanation. “In other words, you’re nothing but a watchdog raised by the elves,” Philip said with a smile. The woman was furious by that remark. “Damn it, go to hell!” The woman waved her hand at the stones on the side, and the stones moved. Everyone watched her actions curiously. “Did you think I managed to live to this day by relying solely on my domain? Hehe, you’re greatly mistaken. I have exactly what it takes to deal with you!” The stones attacked Philip. They were not ordinary stones but humanoid creatures made of stones! They were very tall and seemed determined to crush Philip with sheer size. His exotic fire did not affect them. They were not ordinary stones, and stone was not afraid
The woman was clearly startled by Philip’s remarks. “That’s none of your business!” Before she could say anything else, there was a loud crack, and the domain that the woman was so proud of suddenly shattered. Everyone’s vision was restored to normal, and they saw an ugly woman in front of them. The woman stood in front of them, spitting blood as she glared at Philip with anger and disbelief. “How did you break my domain? That’s impossible! Someone of your level is no match for me!” Philip sneered at the woman’s confidence, “If you had other underhanded tricks, maybe I’d be no match for you, but your level is nothing worth mentioning." Although her domain was powerful for normal people, it was nothing to him. Philip had awakened his own domain ages ago, so he had done some research on this topic. In reality, he did not destroy the other party's domain with his strength but simply shrouded his people in his domain, which he had full control over. After everyone entered h
“No way! Then who held my hand just now? I felt a woman holding my hand. It couldn't be Katie, so who else could it be but you?” Everyone complained, and Philip felt something was wrong. “I didn’t!” Katie quickly clarified. Hearing everyone bickering over it, Philip said, “To be honest, I felt someone holding my hand too. If it’s not one of us, there must be other people in the dark. We need to watch out and don’t let them get their way!” Everyone scowled, surprised by Philip’s remark. At this time, Black Rabbit tentatively grabbed Philip’s pants. “I told you to hurry, but you guys refused to listen. There’s a strange woman who has been living here for a long time! She’s a force to be reckoned with. If possible, we should grope through the dark and leave this place quickly. Don't stay here any longer. It’ll be bad if we lose our lives here!” Black Rabbit said nervously. He had never been here but he had heard the legend of this woman. It was rumored that the woman would c
Black Rabbit had led Rabbit’s brother to join the wraiths. Although he regretted it, he felt proud to have groomed such a loyal subordinate. “Everyone, you need to give it your all. We have no time to lose.” Seeing the sky getting darker, Black Rabbit seemed worried. Everyone felt annoyed by Black Rabbit’s order. “You dare to order us around when your strength has been taken away?” Aslan complained about the arrogant guy. Black Rabbit looked at Philip nervously without a word. He knew that Philip was the final decision-maker. The others were Philip's subordinates. Philip did not notice anything strange. Black Rabbit was up to something. Philip did not think he would give them a warning for no reason. While everyone traveled as fast as they could, the whole forest went dark. Everyone frowned at this sudden change. They were traveling under the scorching sun one second ago, but their vision went dark the next second. Something was clearly wrong. “Philip, I can’t see y
