Philip came back to his senses and stared at his chest in disbelief.
This ancient sage’s secret treasure had never acknowledged him. Although he could bring it around freely, it was also because he had Emperor Kai’s Token with him. Now, under Blackie’s intimidation, this little thing had finally acknowledged Philip as its master.
Then, Blackie bared its fangs and circled Philip. It sat on the floor and jerked its head up at Philip as if showing off.
Philip smiled and said, “Thank you, little one…”
With that said, Philip turned around and left.
After Philip left the Death Canyon, he finally looked back. That altar gave Philip a very uneasy feeling.
***
After returning to the dormitory of the training camp, Fennel and the others also returned with no serious problems. The doctors of Cochly Mountain and those special drugs healed them very quickly.
“You’re back… I heard that you went near the stargate. What did you see?” Fennel asked.
Philip told Fennel what he saw. Fennel nodded and said with a frown, “It’s not much different from before. A space lies behind each stone door, which is where each zone is located for the disciples to carry out their daily training…”
“Due to the influence of the stargate, the energy and rules of each zone fluctuate differently. The closer to the stargate, the stronger the power of energy and rules. However, that place isn’t where the stargate is. The real stargate should be under the altar. There’s a very vast space below that.”
Fennel told Philip about his previous experience, and this chat lasted the entire night.
***
The next day, Philip finally had an understanding of the stargate and the division of the zones.
After a small break, Philip and the others decided to walk around Cochly Mountain. Not long after they went out, they bumped into strict guards who kept checking their identities.
“What’s going on?” Fennel asked with a frown.
Philip chuckled and said, “It seems that someone doesn’t want us to go out and move around.”
