To Philip, a swarm of giant salamanders was no big deal. In fact, they were useless to a certain extent. Philip ruthlessly blocked their sneak attacks and easily dealt with them. It proved that the strength of these amphibians was not equal to their ambitions. After absorbing the beasts’ energy, Philip felt that his strength had returned to its peak. He could kill these creatures effortlessly now. The further he went, the more Philip felt something was wrong. He felt a powerful pressure approaching, and it gave him a bad feeling. The further he walked, the more he felt as if something was trying to break out of his body. It was as if a powerful force was attracting him. Philip took a few steps forward and saw a huge skeleton in front of him. The skeleton looked like the corpse of a beast. Philip could not tell what it was, but he was scared. It was more than a hundred meters tall and almost reached the sky. Philip felt very insignificant in front of it, which sent chills
The King of Beasts might be aware of this so it sent the giant salamanders to attack Philip and lead him to the path of no return. It never thought that Philip would not be affected at all. These little tricks meant nothing to Philip. Philip crushed the skeleton and found more than a dozen pink crystals. He gave everything to Verge Tower and left happily. He gained a lot, but the giant salamanders never appeared again, probably all wiped out by Philip. Since it was getting late, Philip found a safe spot to camp. He lit a fire and roasted a piece of beast meat. He could not take salamander meat. The creature was ugly and pitch-black, and the meat did not taste very good. As Philip was getting bored, Rabbit jumped out of his pocket. Rabbit had always been with Philip, but it had been sleeping in Philip's pocket without making an appearance. As Philip started grilling meat, Rabbit popped out when it smelled the fragrance. “Hehe, your cooking skills are really good, P
Suddenly, a biting chill washed over him. Philip frowned and immediately went on high alert. “What the hell is trying to mess with me now?” Philip took out his weapon and slashed with all his might in the direction where the attack came from. The next moment, he heard a strange scream. He backed away while evading the unknown dangers. Although he felt that these dangers posed no threat to him, he did not want to be injured for no reason. Philip’s energy circulated in his body and quickly got rid of the biting chill. At this time, Philip saw many toads lurking next to the underground river. These toads were different from the ones he had seen before. They were white and could spurt icy-cold swords from their mouths from time to time! It proved that these creatures attacked him just now. After attacking Philip, they quickly changed positions and hid behind the rocks. They should be quite adept at sneak attacks. Philip could not name many of the creatures in this world and c
Philip killed all the toads around him in disgust. Their ugly appearance affected his mood greatly. “These things are so ugly. I find them annoying when I see them croaking!” Rabbit grumbled. Rabbit glared at the toads and wanted to kick the carcasses too. “As a member of the royal family, I’ve always been upright and overboard. I despise creatures that use underhanded methods!” Philip laughed at Rabbit’s reaction. It was fun to have this guy along the way. Rabbit was always lackadaisical and came up with interesting comments. “Philip, let’s charge ahead boldly. There’s no turning back now that we've taken the first step. We have to go on!” Rabbit said with determination. It had a feeling that they could find something ahead. It would be a huge loss if they returned to Nimbus Mountain now. Philip nodded and continued into the depths of the underground river. With his ability, the water of the underground river could not touch him. He stepped on the water and moved forwa
Besides, if Philip was really as powerful as rumored, this transaction would not be considered a failure. If Philip was really the successor to the heavenly path, Carol could already imagine how wonderful her life would be! Although the Pill Guild’s status was very high, two other major guilds loomed over them. As the holy maiden, her status also depended on the guild. The other two guilds were arrogant and did not like the Pill Guild, which had a poor reputation. Therefore, Carol did not have an easy time outside, and her reputation was slowly affected. Although Carol had not done anything, she knew the Pill Guild was not good either. Everything would be different if her significant other was the heavenly path’s successor. No one would dare to ridicule her or look down on her status again. They had to worship her even if she was a village girl! The Pill Guild was in chaos right now. The arrogant first elder kept saying that he wanted to take a look. Carol wanted to tag alo
Meanwhile, Philip was moving forward without any knowledge of the chaos in the Pill Guild. After Philip was taken away by the suction force, he felt uncomfortable as if something was weighing down on his body. He quickly circulated energy and returned to normal. He did not forget the dumb Rabbit as he did so. It was in bad shape, struggling to breathe. Rabbit was not good at fighting, and its practice level was low. Without Philip's help, it would've suffocated to death. Very soon, Philip was thrown out by a powerful force. When he returned to his senses, he found himself on a huge platform. The platform was located above the underground river with a black coffin placed in the middle of the platform. The coffin looked extraordinary, and Philip could not figure out the material used for it. It was tightly sealed, and the wood was pure black but exuded a faint glow. Philip felt a strange vibe from the coffin as if an evil force was attracting him. “Philip, something is wrong
Unfortunately, Philip was so strong that the coffin could not affect him. The other party had no way to control Philip, let alone absorb his energy to replenish itself. “I think we should leave as soon as possible!” Rabbit suggested cautiously. Rabbit could not help but feel that this scary place was like a large cemetery. It felt as if it would die here. “Something's wrong. Look around you. Don’t you think we're trapped in an enclosed space? The water in the underground river seems stagnant,” Philip reminded Rabbit to look around. Rabbit looked down and found that the underground river was not flowing at all, just like a pool of stagnant water. “Oh no, we’re trapped. What should we do?” Rabbit said in fright. If they had not entered the underground river, they could have easily summoned the crane to take them out. Now that they were trapped in this place, however, no one knew what to expect. At this time, Philip saw a huge beast that seemed to be guarding the coffin.
While the cow was not paying attention, Philip kicked Rabbit and sent it flying a distance away. Rabbit did not expect that Philip would throw it away and screamed before it landed next to the coffin. It shivered when it saw the coffin, which was very spooky. “Philip, you don’t care about my feelings at all! I’m afraid of the dark. Do you think I can look this thing in the eye?” Rabbit trembled as it approached the coffin. Although it complained with all its might, it had to complete the task assigned by Philip. The cow never noticed the rabbit’s presence. It was so small that it was no different than a fly. A talking rabbit could not do any harm. Philip quickly fought the cow. He had to admit that the cow's reaction was faster than he thought. Although the cow was huge, it was very fast. Rabbit tentatively stroked the coffin in puzzlement. At this distance, there was nothing scary about this terrifying coffin. “I thought the coffin could swallow me whole, but it’s so…” R
Jamie was surprised by Philip’s easygoing reaction and immediately felt the gap between him and Philip. If Jamie were in Philip’s shoes, he would be worried, but Philip was confident instead. Jamie had a lot to learn from Philip. Jamie had no idea that Philip did not take Dennis seriously at all. Philip had too many capable people under his command. He was not concerned about Dennis at all. In comparison, Dennis could be considered the most useless person under him.… On the other hand, Rabbit arrived at the market. Rabbit was quite famous among the major families by now. As a non-human with a violent temper, he was in the center of attraction wherever he went. Someone tried to kidnap Rabbit once, but not only did he fail, but the person was also beaten badly. To this day, the kidnapper was still bedridden in the hospital. Rabbit’s notorious reputation had spread far and wide, and not just anyone could deal with him. At this time, many storytellers were at the tavern tal
People in seclusion would usually not receive any news from the outside world, so contacting them would be up to luck. Therefore, Lincoln's appearance was good news for the Hexa Guild. Now that the guild was under scrutiny, Lincoln's appearance would save them a lot of trouble. Lincoln stood on the spot, looking at the yard curiously. Philip had modified the yard, so it was full of energy. Any practitioner would feel the difference at once. Jamie and the others had discovered this fact but never asked out of courtesy. Everyone had their own secret. Maybe this was Philip’s secret. Lincoln closed his eyes and felt the abundant energy. He was reluctant to leave this place that contained tens of thousands of times more energy than the place he had chosen for his seclusion. Lincoln felt conflicted. He could practice much faster in this place if the energy level remained the same. Thinking of this, he could hardly contain his excitement to practice on the spot. Seeing Jamie nex
Lincoln had never met a monster beast with intelligence! After taking a closer look at Rabbit, Lincoln had other ideas. Philip was most likely a powerful person with extraordinary strength to have such a powerful monster beast as his pet. Dennis was not a fool. Philip had to be powerful and not a coward for Dennis to willingly follow him. Thinking of this, Lincoln showed Rabbit enough respect. “Mr. Rabbit, I’m looking for Dennis from the Hexa Guild.” The guild members behind him were full of disbelief at his courtesy. They had served him for a while and knew his character very well. Lincoln would never be so polite to ordinary juniors, so this rabbit had to be unusual. Thinking of this, their attitude toward Rabbit changed from disdain to admiration. Rabbit was shocked by their eccentric behavior and looked at them skeptically. Seeing their smiling faces, Rabbit decided not to make things difficult for them. Besides, they were polite. “Oh, you’re looking for Dennis. Come
This guild member could not forget how Hogster had always stolen his resources by force. Hogster’s ugly face made him sick. Although Lincoln was back, he had lost all confidence in the guild. He just wanted to return to Dennis' side as soon as possible. Although he was a member under the guild leader, Dennis was the one who had been helping him all along. In fact, if not for Dennis’ support over the years, even Alain would not have achieved what he had today. Hence, this guild member had always been grateful to Dennis. When Dennis left, he wanted to leave with him, but due to special circumstances, he stayed until now. Unexpectedly, it came in handy. Alain was excited to hear that. In Alain's opinion, such a lowly member would not dare to lie to him, so he had to be telling the truth. He knew that this was his chance to settle everything once and for all. Alain had been worried that Lincoln would blame him, but Lincoln was deceived instead, which was great. He had nothing t
Lincoln had a very good reputation, so the guild members dropped their guard and started to complain about everything. “Grandmaster, we've been having a hard time. Hogster always deducts our practice resources and gives them to the women he likes. It’s infuriating. We don’t even have that many resources to begin with,” a member said miserably. He had good talent, but Hogster did not give him any good resources, so his level remained stagnant. All his resources had been given to the women who had caught Hogster’s fancy. Lincoln scowled upon hearing this. How could Hogster take other people’s resources? He would not allow this to happen. “They also tried every means to arrange a political marriage with the Celestial Palace, but the agreement fell through, and they badmouthed the other party for it!” “They defamed the young lady of the guild, and now, they're furious at us. Their wrath is not a joke. Moreover, someone solved the side effects of their practice technique, but we'v
If Philip was at fault, Lincoln had nothing to say. However, if Hogster was the one who had caused all the trouble, he would not spare them. “I’ll get to the bottom of this. Now, tell me what’s going on with Dennis. Based on my understanding of him, he wouldn't betray the guild for no reason. He must have a reason for doing this!” Neither of them could explain what happened to Dennis. They could only say that humans were fickle. After all, they could not figure it out either. The person at fault would never admit their fault. Alain did not think that he was biased or thought that what he had done was excessive. He simply thought that Dennis looked down on him, which was why he decided to leave. Now that he was gone, Alain could say whatever he wanted, and Dennis could not defend himself. Thinking of this, Alain was very excited. He began to defame Dennis and shifted the attention away from him and his son. Lincoln scowled as he listened. Then, he returned to his room and summ
Alain was helpless. Although he had a lot to say, he could not do anything in front of Lincoln. Lincoln was stronger than him in every aspect, a force to be reckoned with. He was not someone Alain could deal with. Alain looked at Lincoln awkwardly. He wanted to appease his anger but did not know what to say. “You need to explain this to me. Why did Dennis leave? And I want to know why the guild’s reputation has become so bad. Did you do something wrong?”Lincoln heard that Dennis had been expelled and could no longer stay in the guild. Many people supported Dennis, so they were upset with Alain and tried to defame him. Hearing that, Alain knew that someone must have been talking behind his back, but he did not dare to lose his temper. He forced a smile and looked at Lincoln in a flattering manner. Before he could find an excuse, Hogster rushed over excitedly and said to his father, “Father, guess what I did to Philip? Hehe!” Hogster recounted his handiwork smugly without p
It had been years since the grandmaster went into seclusion for practice. He was not concerned about power. He once mentioned that he would not leave his seclusion unless he reached the top. Hence, no one expected to see him. “Grandmaster, you appeared at the right time. We would've been in trouble if you didn't come out!” “That’s right. Everyone is bullying us. Now that you’re out, you can help us.” Everyone complained about their grievances, feeling sorry for themselves. The Hexa Guild was in trouble, and they faced various problems too. All the major guilds were keeping a close eye on the Hexa Guild, waiting to see them make a fool of themselves. The Celestial Palace planned to destroy the Hexa Guild instead of letting them off. They could not accept the initial setup, so they decided to erase the Hexa Guild from existence. Hence, the Hexa Guild had been under great pressure, with the members wishing that someone could help them. Unexpectedly, a strong expert appeared.
Ronan was his buddy, and his wife's reputation was at stake. Philip could not stand idly by. He had to help. Jamie was very fast at ordering his people to make the matter public. No one expected another dramatic turn of events. Everyone thought that the young lady of the Celestial Palace was an unchaste woman for making that decision. Unexpectedly, the Celestial Palace found a way to solve the side effects of their technique. All the major guilds were in trepidation. Although the Celestial Palace’s technique was very powerful, the side effects reduced its allure. Now that that problem was solved, everything was different. On top of that, the holy maiden and other members of the guild showed their appearance in public. Regardless of gender, everyone was beautiful without any markings on their faces. After seeing this scene, everyone knew that the Celestial Palace was about to make a comeback. Carlos was very excited and thought that Vanna was a lucky star to bring so many
