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.

The crow continued to speak as if all its conversat

  • The Phoenix's Rise - Part II

    Copies of the Yellow Hand Organization quickly spread. At first from association to association. Then from order to order, until finally the news spread across the country. And it didn't wait too long, when people saw the copies being handed out by little kids hawking goods on street corners in the Willesia Area."Announcement! The new ranking of the Ten Brilliant Stars of the Almaria Continent!""The Phoenix of Nalfrost Realm, has become the first youngster from this Realm to be ranked among the Ten Brilliant Stars of Almaria Continent!""Announcement!" the boys further informed everyone.

  • The Rise of the Phoenix

    "Phoenix of fire!" hissed The Grimm in terror.Just then, The Grimm saw from the direction where the young opponent was standing, the Phoenix of the fire god rising from the ashes of a spark, created through spells and curses. The flames grew larger and larger, until they became the monstrous Phoenix.The resurrection of the ashes was signaled by the Phoenix spreading wings of fire.Kroong!"The Phoenix is moving!" exclaimed the crowd."Run if you don't want to die in ashes!"Instantly, the spectators on the street scattered. They ran, moving further and further away from the battle arena.At the same time, a buzzing sound could be heard. The Fire God took flight, fluttering hot wings - sparks of fire protruding from the edges of his wings. The phoenix flew very fast.

An unspeakable pain. He was

  • The Magic Hand

    "Hand over that AoE gem, chop it off with you and you can leave safely!" he continued.Things were quiet. The Grimm seemed to have the upper hand."Is that young man going to lose?" asked a worried spectator. He was rooting for Guo Jiang.His comrade glanced over and said curtly. "Not necessarily. That young man hasn't unleashed any other abilities yet. We'll see."At the same time, Guo Jiang replied. "There's no need to be arrogant. This is just the beginning of the battle. There are still many abilities you haven't seen yet!" His lips moved quickly, the magic spell he released.Illimiulso Persoego!The magic curse came out after he cast the spell quickly. Guo Jiang felt his magic energy being sucked away, missing ten parts. This is a powerful magic spell, one that requires a lot of energy.And a magic hand as big as a giant's hand emerged from the ground. It quickly gripped The Grimm's body, pulling with the intention of squeezing the Silver Armor.Krak! Arrgh!The Grimm cried out h

"What if I refuse? What will you do to me?" he asked angrily.The Grimm slashed with the silver sword in his hand. A ringing sound was heard, followed by a bolt of cold air, chills were felt in everyone watching."Then you must die!" shouted The Grimm, fiercely!He moved.His hand slashed at the Ice Sword Artifact. Then a cloud of cold wind rushed quickly towards Guo Jiang. At first it was only in the form of ice pellets. It quickly turned into a snowball. It was large and crashing down on Guo Jiang. The wind of his attack sounded roaring like a winter storm.Everyone gasped, hurriedly tightening the necks of their coats. The cold was getting more and more piercing!Guo Jiang did not remain silent."This is a snow element attack using a magic weapon!" he sneered."If you have a magic weapon, I d
