“The emperor of the fire phoenix royal family and I were good friends. I waited and watched what happened. He
later stepped forward to negotiate with these outsiders…”
“These people were actually interstellar predators. They had taken a fancy to the planet’s core in the deepest part
of the continent.”
“The planet’s core is the heart of the entire continent, so it was impossible for us to agree to their unreasonable
request.”
After that, the fight started.
The Bamboo Swordsman and the emperor of the fire phoenix royal family joined forces, but they could not
withstand the leader’s attack. The two quickly fell into a disadvantage, and the Bamboo Swordsman’s sword almost
shattered when it blocked the attack.
“The ancient Heavenly Court noticed the anomaly here and dispatched almost all their people.”
Hearing this, Philip was taken aback for a moment. He finally found a trace of the ancient Heavenly Court in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStarfall Continent.
About a dozen holy-tier powerhouses of the ancient Heavenly Court arrived at the scene.
The leader’s eyes were full of contempt as he said, “Is this the strongest force you have on your planet?”
Under the forceful attacks of more than a dozen people, this person could still handle them with ease.
He yelled, “I’ll let you see the difference in our strengths!”
A shadow behind the man gradually grew larger and finally shrouded nearly half of the city.
Just one wave of his hand killed tens of thousands of people, and even several veteran holy-tier experts were not
spared.
“As no one could put up a fight, they resorted to using a forbidden technique and summoned the will of the great
earth before they could defeat the enemy. .. However, it’s a forbidden technique, after all. The rules of this planet
were destroyed, and the pathway from holy-tier to god-tier was destroyed too.”
“I was seriously injured in that battle, and due to my age, I could never fully recover from it. After that, I returned
here. There used to be a small town here, and I was born here.”
Following the old man’s words, the scene changed and became a simple frontier town untainted by worldly affairs.
“But both the ancient dragon royal family and the White Marsh royal family thought that this town belonged to the
other party. They kept sending their people to harass and attack this town… Thus, this town slowly fell apart, and I
started my wandering days. But it’s my home, after all. I returned here before I died and used all my final strength
to split the ruins of the town and the ground apart.”
The old man turned to look at Philip and said, “We had an enemy stronger than ever, but we were still fighting
amongst ourselves. I hope someone will step forward and unite everyone. If we face another invasion again, it may
not be as simple as the destruction of a city… I wonder if you’re interested, young man.”
Philip said with great interest, “What’s in it for me?”
The old man was taken aback before he laughed and said, “Brat, before I built this sword tomb, I had predicted the
appearance of a peerless genius, and the timing is about right too. Although I can’t be certain who it’ll be, I’ve
taken a fancy to a few people after this series of tests.”
The old man narrowed his eyes, poked Philip in the chest, and said, “It’s your honor to have caught the attention of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe Bamboo Swordsman, kiddo.”
After that, he turned around, walked forward with his head held high, and said, “I don’t have anything for you. I
think your abilities seem to be in conflict but also coexist harmoniously. There’s nothing else I can give you but to
help you improve your practice further.”
The surrounding shadows turned into stars and merged into Philip’s body.
Feeling this pure and violently fluctuating energy, Philip relaxed all his muscles and allowed it to change his
constitution.
Philip absorbed the energy without qualms, and his level continued to increase. The early stage of a half-step to the
other shore, the middle stage, to the late stage!
This was equivalent to the late stage of an eight-star practitioner on the land of the other shore!
After all the energy was completely absorbed, Philip opened his eyes. His gaze blazed as he adapted to his body
which had suddenly become stronger.
Philip secretly wondered what other people had gotten. At the same time, he also learned that the Bamboo
Swordsman was not a god-tier powerhouse.
There had not been a god-tier powerhouse for thousands of years in this world. The Bamboo Swordsman was only
at the peak of the holy-tier, a half-step to god-tier, a quasi-god-tier!
