Still in silence, the four figures waited until about the time of the burning charcoal before taking action. The white smoke blown into the room was a weakening poison similar to a tranquilizer that could make anyone feel weak, asleep, and unable to control their Qi energy.

After they had waited long enough, the four figures carefully opened the door to the room, now smiling at each other in satisfaction as they saw the targeted young man fast asleep, not realizing in the slightest that he was in danger.

"Take him! We'll kill him in the forest where Padre Virtue breathed his last. It won't take too long for one of the four shadows to carry the unconscious young man.

Armed with the cultivation of the four people, all of whom were at Earth Practitioner Level 3 to 5, they jumped straight up and disappeared after moving several times across the roofs of other houses.

The night passed quietly, and even the nighttime animals did not make any noise; it seemed that the Middle was also hiding

  • Ujian Alkemis dan Mukjizat.

    A miracle happened."Magic! It's like magic!" Guo Jiang hissed seeing the changes in the cauldron.The liquid in the cauldron suddenly turned red. As red as the evening sun.Amazed at the pill-making demonstration, Guo Jiang remembered that, in compounding and refining, timing must be right. It must not be slow, nor too fast. Everything is just in time."Lastly, let's see what happens after these 3 jugs of Hazel Flower go in." Guo Jiang hissed. Expecting the next miracle to happen.The young man instantly sowed three pinches of Hazel Flower powder into the cauldron. And white smoke billowed, the water above the cauldron churned. The cauldron made a rattling noise, as if it was about to break because it could not bear the white smoke and boiling water.Guo Jiang wished anxiously."Hopefully, this pill will be successfully formed. If it fails then it's a waste of my struggle to fight against the Golem. This realm is really cunning. He gives prizes but the winners are required to concoct

  • The Great Sorcerer Alatar

    The wind of the attack was fierce, preceding the movement of the stone creature's fist.Wush!The Golem's hand moved to punch. He formed a fist and intended to block the attack speed of the Eye of Refinement—the arrow with hot magic that Guo Jiang shot.The Golem's fist may contain millions of jin of energy. But the Eye of Refinement is a magic weapon.Guo Jiang smiled coldly at it."Although this creature is strong, it is very stupid. It's so stupid that it can't distinguish between the power of magic, and the power of ordinary combat weapons."Two powerful forces met.Guo Jiang sneered even more inwardly. When the fist golem struck, his lips widened in a smile. In his eyes the magic arrow seemed to pierce through the stone creature's fist like a knife through butter.A cracking sound followed. The crack spread rapidly throughout the golem's limbs. The golem shook. The crunching sound of breaking branches could be heard. The golem's face became stiff. Then...Blam!A shattering sound

  • The Golem's Challenge

    Duar!The golem punched towards Guo Jiang. It intended to crush Guo Jiang. But of course, the young man didn't allow any of that. His body levitated, disappearing quickly. Guo Jiang was and is now seen floating; he looked like a Demigod. Majestic and mesmerizing. The Golem was gaping, not expecting such a skillful opponent.That Flying Above the Clouds ginkang movement made Guo Jiang look agile, swerving as if he had wings. His Cloak Stomper robe fluttered as he dodged the Golem's fist. The wind of the punch rippled through Guo Jiang's body. It was the wind that made the young man's cloak flutter.Guo Jiang was choked up seeing the effect of the Golem's fist. "For the sake of the black turtle. I don't know how many millions of jinn, the power of this magic creature. But I can't lose. A big prize awaits me." Jin is a unit of weight in China. One jinn is equivalent to 0.5 Kilograms.Guo Jiang darted quickly downward. His right hand formed a palm. He slammed into the Golem with full forc

  • The Voice of the Castle

    Walking down the hallway inside the castle, Guo Jiang took notes. Inside the castle, the gloomy air spread disgust. This place had not been trodden by humans for many years. Naturally, the unpleasant odor and strange aura were all that remained there. Suddenly a voice rang out, its echo reverberating within the castle. Guo Jiang was instantly alert, fearing that it was a dark attack."Welcome to the ancient castle. You are a fortunate figure, one of the lucky few experts when entering this realm." Silence again. Only the echo of voices could be heard this time.Afterwards, "With you being in this room, I guess that you have successfully passed the first test. The test of the raven guarding the door. And the magic spell reward must have been earned."Guo Jiang looked up. He looked around. Who knows if there was a form of the voice that had been speaking. Not finding any figure, he finally came to a definite conclusion. "It's a machine voice, a human voice recorded and left into a syste

  • The Challenge of the Golem

    Standing in front of the large door of one castle, Guo Jiang was busy thinking. "This puzzle is really strange. But I must not get trapped. Wrong answers will be fatal. This crow seems to be cunning. He wants to trap me not only to lose the first challenge. He wants to punish me." Guo Jiang did not want to be less clever than the crow.He started thinking. What happens if someone runs, faster and faster. Then the answer just popped into his mind. The breath must be rushing. And Guo Jiang remembered the breath that always rushes when people run fast."Our own breath. That will be hard to catch when we run faster and faster. This can't be wrong." This was a spontaneous answer. And Guo Jiang put on a triumphant face. MEski was sour, but the crow conceded.The crow sportingly recognized the young man's victory. Although he was annoyed by his behavior, but a winner is a winner. "That's right young man," the raven shouted modestly. "Who would have thought that the riddle that I composed was

  • The Castle Gate and the Talking Crow

    Guo Jiang stepped without hesitation, as he passed through the iron chain bridge, and the sound of roaring water could be heard from under the bridge. "Usually there are a lot of wild and evil creatures performing hidden techniques in such a shelter behind the darkness of the night. I feel the presence of a strange aura!" Guo Jiang thought.Suddenly, the sound rang out, deafeningly loud. Guo Jiang slashed with the sword.He looked carefully, but there was no one in front of the castle door."Welcome to the palace of the blue-robed knight. Answer and solve the following riddle, then you can pass into the castle without difficulty."Guo Jiang realized. The voice was not a human voice.At first he almost laughed. It turned out to be a crow. But the crow could speak human language."This is just the work of arrays and magic, isn't it? Making all illusions seem real." Guo Jiang consoled himself. He couldn't believe that the crow was real.The crow continued to speak as if all its conversat
