“There’s a problem…”

Feeling the power lingering in his body, Philip shook his head. He felt that there was a problem. His absorbed power had inexplicably changed and reacted differently, causing his body to be injured.

There was most likely a problem. However, at this moment, Chen Heng did not know where this problem came from at this moment.

Standing where he was, Philip thought seriously and then studied this phenomenon for a long time. Then, he found a connection. The reason why the initial power had a backlash and caused his body to look like this seemed to be mainly because of the problem with his body.

Philip tried a few times. He excluded the other effects and then increased the strength and potential of this body before going through the baptism of the golden door.

Other than the body’s strength, the other conditions in the few tests were all normal. But the results were very different.

In this test, Chen Heng felt very different. The time and strength he had to endure were much more than before. This also opened up an opening for Philip and told him the reason.

It was not because of any other reason but because of the strength of his body. After further research, Philip further confirmed the cause. Other than the strength of his body, the potential of his body was also the biggest condition to bear the initial force.

Only when his body was strong enough and his potential was strong enough could he bear the initial force to the greatest extent and bear the price of opening the golden door.

It was precisely because of this that Philip’s body would automatically crack. Strictly speaking, Philip’s body was not bad. After all, his foundation was above average back then. His strength was close to Fifth Rank. Compared to an ordinary person, it was needless to say.

After taking over, Chen Heng had even used the killing power to push it further, reaching the Fifth Rank. In terms of body strength, it was not bad. However, the so-called ‘not bad’ depended on the comparison.

Compared to an ordinary person, a Fifth Rank was definitely impressive. However, compared to Chen Heng’s main body, this body was nothing, Chen Heng’s main body was still being nurtured within the Golden Dragon Tree compared to Philip’s body.

However, even though it had not been fully nurtured, its potential had already been revealed. Once it was nurtured, it would be at least at the peak of the Fifth Rank, with endless potential. Compared to that body, Philip’s above-average body looked ordinary, nothing special.

It was the huge difference in his body that caused the changes. Philip’s body would automatically crack, causing wounds. It was also because his body could not withstand the power of the golden door.

It was a very simple and direct reason. Following that, Philip began to look for a solution.

Since he had already found the reason, it was naturally very simple to solve it. It was fine to strengthen his body directly. Chen Heng had many ways to strengthen his body.

‘Whether it was the baptism of the power of slaughter, the devouring transformation of the Heaven-Devouring scripture, or the Black King’s Sacrificial Ceremony, all of them was able to achieve good results, allowing Chen Heng to achieve his goal.

However, after considering everything, Philip’s gaze shifted to the Heaven-Devouring scripture in the end. It was placed on the many stone slabs in the stone palace.

The stone tablets that were placed in the Red Lotus Society’s headquarters were now taken by Philip. This was not strange. After all, those stone tablets belonged to him in the first place.

There were traces of the unique existences of the past and even corpses within these stone slabs. According to legends, these stone tablets were formed from the opponents that the Black King had killed in ancient times.

On the path of the Black King’s rise, he had defeated many ancient gods and demons and sealed these gods and demons within the stone slabs for later viewing.

This was a legend that Philip had learned. In the past, in Philip’s hands, these stone slabs were only good-looking, and from then on, they had no other effects.

But now, in Chen Heng’s hands, it was no longer the case.

‘Over three thousand stone slabs. Even if most of the imprints contained within are already incomplete, it’s still shocking enough…’

Philip thought back to those stone slabs, then fell into deep thought. ‘If I can swallow these stone slabs.’

Over three thousand stone slabs. Every stone slab contained the imprints of ancient gods and even their blood essence. These things were undoubtedly great nourishment.

If he could use the Heaven Devouring scripture to devour and transform them, he would definitely be able to raise the level of his bloodline to a whole new level.

Before this, Chen Heng had originally planned to leave these stone slabs for Red. After Red’s body was completely nurtured, it would devour these stone slabs to reach a higher level.

But now, since Red had yet to walk out of the Golden Dragon Tree, giving them to Philip to use seemed like a good idea. In the blink of an eye, many thoughts flashed through Philip’s mind.

In the following days, he began to try intermittently. Time slowly passed.

In the following time, other than continuing to visualize that initial space and strengthening his connection with that space, Philip also devoured the remaining marks and blood essence in the stone slabs to strengthen himself.

Under his actions, the changes in his body were very star-like. In just two short years, Philip’s appearance had become much younger.

Although he still looked like the old man from before, his spirit and body exuded a vigorous vitality. He did not look like an old man about to age, but more like a burly man in his prime.

Of course, it was the same in reality. After two years of continuously devouring the stone slabs, Philip’s life level had already transformed. It was now very different from before.

After experiencing the continuous transformation of his life level, he was actually at another stage. It was as if he had returned to his growth period.

If one observed, one could see that Philip’s appetite had become larger and larger in recent years. He was becoming younger in all aspects. Thanks to this change, the power of the initial space had also become more closely connected to Philip.

Rumble!

Within the quiet and spacious room, a rumbling sound was heard. It was extremely loud and could not help but attract the attention of others. However, only one person was standing there at this moment.

Philip stood alone in his original spot. His black robe fluttered in the wind. He extended his hand as if he had grabbed onto something at this moment. Upon careful observation, the surrounding space seemed to have been grabbed. A feeling that it was real and real appeared as it condensed.

Swish…

A wave of ripples appeared. Vaguely, a more powerful force was condensing and surging into Philip’s hand. Feeling the condensed force in his hand, Philip’s expression was calm. He only said faintly, “It has finally reached this level…”

Two years had passed, and Philip’s body had changed far more than his body, but his strength. He had not spent much effort on his strength during these two years.

After all, since he had expended his strength in other areas, he had naturally neglected to increase his strength. Even so, Philip’s strength was still growing at an unimaginable speed.

In just two short years, his strength had risen, rapidly expanding. He had already reached the peak of Fifth Rank, about to reach Sixth Rank. And this was still the result of him not focusing on increasing his strength.

If others knew about this, they would be shocked and incredulous, not understanding how he did it. However, Philip was very clear.

His strength had improved so much had nothing to do with him. To a large extent, it had to do with the power of the initial space.

In two years, as Chen Heng’s body resonated with the initial space, the golden door was gradually opened to him. A large amount of initial power was continuously flowing into his body.

At this moment, the initial energy in his body had already surpassed Chen Heng’s original body. It was obvious how terrifying it was. And such a huge amount of initial energy had resulted in many effects.

The increase in strength was one of them. Under the influence of the huge amount of initial energy, Philip’s strength continued to increase. Even if he wanted to control it, he could not control it.

It was only at this level because Philip had not focused on increasing his strength. Otherwise, he would have broken through the barrier and reached Sixth Rank.

In just two years, such a change had occurred. No one would have believed it. However, although the results were great, the price was obvious.

In these two years, Philip could feel the changes in his body. His mood swings became increasingly rare. In the past, Chen Heng was a rational person.

As aclone of Chen Heng, Philip naturally inherited his personality. But no matter how rational he was, there would still be mood swings, and he would have his preferences and thoughts.

But now, this kind of situation was becoming rarer and rarer. Two years had passed, and Philip’s emotional fluctuations were becoming raroer and rarer. The many obsessions that originally existed had also gradually faded away, becoming unimportant.

Even the increase in strength was no longer an important matter. This kind of situation, just like what Chen Heng had deduced back then, tended to evolve into a mechanical evolution gradually.

For Philip, this was not a good sign. If he continued with the current trend, he was afraid that all of his emotions would disappear and be wiped out in the end. Only pure rationality would remain.

At that time, he did not know what would happen. But fortunately. This was only a clone. Even if something happened, it would not be a big deal as long as it did not affect the main body. It would not be a big deal.

At this moment, Philip was already rejoicing, Fortunately, the main body didn’t do this back then. Otherwise, the current situation would be terrible.

If the main body and the clone did the same thing separately, the situation would be different. If the main body was affected by the initial power and became like this, even if the clone was fine, it would gradually be assimilated and eventually become like this. None of them could escape.

But now that the clone had become like this, the main body’s existence could become the last straw that hung the clone. Through the connection between the main body and the clone, the main body could exert influence on the clone.

Even if the clone completely lost all emotions in the end and only left behind pure reason, it could still use this connection to control the clone’s actions, maintaining the final bottom line. This result was naturally much better.

“The deeper the connection with the initial space, the weaker the fluctuations of my emotions. At the same time, the deeper the connection with the surrounding world…”

As Philip felt the changes in the past two years, many thoughts silently flashed through his mind. During these two years, as Philip’s connection with the initial space became deeper, he seemed to have an additional layer of connection with this world. Every move he made felt like it was supported by the

world.

He was like the chosen one who was enveloped by the will of heaven. Every move he made was like a powerful force that could resonate with the world. Even if it was just a part of his power, when he used it in the end, it could achieve great results.

This was also one of the benefits that Philip had obtained recently. However, from the looks of it, the so-called initial space of this world clearly had a huge secret. It was even very likely that it was the core of this world.

In other words, it was the core of the world. Otherwise, it would not have such an effect. Philip thought so in his heart.

Then, in the next moment, he seemed to sense something and looked into the distance. In the surroundings, a vague sense appeared from the world itself and was transmitted back to him.

Philip’s connection with the surrounding sky and earth was particularly close in this situation. He saw the specific location that he could sense through this connection in just a short moment.

In the distance, in an unknown place, a mysterious and vast altar appeared. It was a mysterious and huge altar. It was desolate and huge, giving off a feeling of vicissitudes of time. It was extremely ancient.

This altar seemed to belong to an ancient and powerful existence. On it, Philip could feel a powerful aura. It was displayed from within. From the world’s perspective, Philip could easily feel a sense of disgust.

Then, a strange feeling appeared. Philip lowered his head and looked forward. With his will, the scene in front of him changed. A figure appeared.

On the vast altar, the figure of a girl appeared. She wore a long robe, and her face was filled with stubbornness and awareness. That figure also gave Philip a very strong feeling.

“Yaoyao.

Philip looked at that figure and subconsciously muttered to himself, standing on the spot, revealing the other party’s identity.

It was none other than Lu Yao. Under Philip’s gaze, Lu Yao stood on the altar. She raised one of her hands high and threw a green pearl onto the ground. With a loud bang, the pearl exploded into countless pieces..
