Tibeth woke with a throbbing headache. As his vision cleared, his gaze fell on a huge ginger-like herb lying beside him. He casually pushed it aside, and the sharp rattle of metal echoed through the room.Only then did he look down and realize he was chained.The chain ran from his arm to his waist, yet it did not truly restrain his movements. He could still stand, walk, and move freely without much difficulty.He frowned in confusion.What was the purpose of the chain?Sitting up, he carefully surveyed the room. The giant old woman sat beside an enormous pot nearly four feet long, its contents bubbling softly as steam curled into the air. Beside her stood a man, adding ingredients one after another while following her instructions.Tibeth immediately recognized him.It was Victor."What are you doing, Victor?" he demanded angrily as he tugged at the chain wrapped around him.Then his expression changed.He could not channel his energy.The chain sealed his energy completely, and the

Victor could make out what looked like a city from the boat."I think we're getting close," he said excitedly.Tibeth got to his feet. He had been asleep when Victor spoke. The moment he spotted the city, his eyes lit up."Looks like some of the buildings are damaged, though. Hopefully there won't be any green-skinned creatures in there." He chuckled.Victor couldn't help but agree. The green-skinned men and the Gnoma. Ever since he became a third-level ancestor, he had never found himself in a situation where he was so utterly helpless against another being.For one, third-level ancestors rarely fought. They knew the consequences could be catastrophic if they did. Besides, losing would severely damage their reputation. To a certain extent, people like Victor lived sheltered lives. Only people like Tibeth, who had spent most of his life on battlefields, was accustomed to staring death in the face on a regular basis.Yet even Tibeth was deeply wary of the green-skinned creatures.Soon,

They pushed against the broken wall, smashing it apart even further as the three lizard-like creatures forced their way inside. Standing nearly three meters tall, they looked utterly terrifying.Nina didn't give them the chance to complete their grand entrance. She thrust out her hand, sending a blazing fireball hurtling toward them."Screech!!!"The creatures scattered with astonishing agility before launching themselves at the duo like crazed beasts."Four Slashes of Heavenly Consortium!"Samuel met the one in the lead head-on. Soulrender flashed, and the creature was sliced cleanly across the waist. Without pausing for even a heartbeat, he pivoted and drove a vicious kick into the abdomen of the second monster, blasting it across the room with explosive force.At the same time, Nina bound the third creature with mana shackles before driving a mana spear straight down its gaping throat. The spear tore through its body, splitting it apart as blood gushed onto the floor.The second cr

"Alright." Nina nodded.The two of them got to work immediately. Nina brought down tree after tree while Samuel shaped the logs into a raft with swift, practiced movements. Wood chips flew through the air as his hands moved with effortless precision. Before long, the rough pile of timber had transformed into a remarkably sturdy raft."That was fast." Nina clasped her hands together, unable to hide her amazement."Anything that involves creating is my niche," Samuel said proudly as he began engraving several runes into the surface of the raft."What are you doing?" she asked curiously, watching glowing lines spread beneath his fingertips."I'm creating a self-driving raft. After installing the runes, I just need to insert a few energy stones, and we'll be able to control it with our minds while relaxing," he replied."Woah. That's very cool. I didn't know we could get so much out of just an ordinary raft," she said, running her fingers over the intricate rune patterns."I can turn anyt

Suddenly, green-skinned men burst from the bushes and tall grass, charging across the riverbank with savage cries as they swung their weapons."Shit! We're under attack!" Victor shouted.His instincts screamed.He rolled away just as a spear slammed into the spot where he had been lying moments earlier, the impact blasting dirt and shattered stones into the air.Had he reacted a heartbeat slower, the spear would have pierced straight through his skull.Victor sprang to his feet.Energy erupted from his body in a violent wave, forcing back the green-skinned warrior charging at him. Without wasting a single moment, he shot forward instead of retreating.Qi surged around his sword as Dharma spells condensed beside him.The glowing projectiles streaked through the air one after another.Several green-skinned warriors were blasted backward, explosions ripping open their flesh.Yet, to Victor's horror, the torn flesh writhed and crawled back together before sealing itself almost instantly.

"Yes." Ouyang nodded."Do you perhaps know anything about it?"The green-skinned man chewed thoughtfully on a piece of meat before nodding."I think I actually do. The place you're talking about is probably the Ruins of Alchemy. It's not far from here."Their eyes immediately lit up."You know the place? Can you give us directions?" they asked eagerly."Yeah. Follow the road on the left and keep going straight. Eventually, the path ends at a river. You'll have to cross it to reach the Ruins of Alchemy. The problem is, there's a barrier preventing anyone from getting close to the waters near the ruins. We can only view it from a distance or from a boat.""A barrier?" Tibeth frowned, his brows knitting together."At least we have a lead. We can worry about the barrier when we get there," Victor said."Thank you for the information, friends," Ouyang said. "We'll be on our way now."He rose to his feet, and the others followed."Wait. It's already getting late. Aren't you tired after figh
