Chapter 1931 Give Up
Chapter 1931 Give Up
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of deafening explosions reverberated. Then, when the spirit warriors of the Wankong Clan
looked around, they were dumbfounded to see that the mountain of ice thorns that blocked their way
had actually disappeared. Moreover, they did not even sustain any injury at all. Of course, they could
not believe what just happened, and it was as if they were dreaming.
With the help of the mighty defensive power of the Demonic Bone Shield, Rocky and the rest of his
team finally got past the area that was bound by the spiritual array.
After confirming that there was no imminent danger around them, Rocky decided to put away the
Demonic Bone Shield and deactivated the Army-blessing Scroll.
Soon enough, the speed of the whole team slowed down until they eventually halted.
Except for Finnegan, the rest of the spirit warriors, including Alex, could not help but sit on the snow
upon realizing that they were already safe. They were furiously panting from fatigue since their spiritual
power was almost exhausted.
"I cannot believe that we really made it past that vicious spiritual array!" Alex exclaimed. She seemed
to sound extremely excited and confused at the same time.
"Me, either. What Rookie just did is beyond my comprehension!" Even Finnegan could only sigh in
disbelief. After all, he was a Spiritual Emperor at the medium stage and was supposed to be the
strongest in their team. However, his strength was not enough to get his team past the overwhelming
tests in the Ethereal Valley. Moreover, the one that actually saved them was just a Spiritual King.
Of course, if he knew Rocky's real strength, everything would make sense.
"Everyone, get enough rest and take some pills to replenish your spiritual power. Although we have
gotten out of that trouble, it's still hard to say what kind of test we will encounter next," Rocky urged the
members of his team.
"Hey, I need to talk to you," Vivian whispered as she signaled to Rocky.
Rocky raised his eyebrows, wondering what Vivian wanted to talk about. Then, he followed her away
from the warriors of the Wankong Clan.
"So, when are we going to leave these people and act on our own? We are wasting too much time."
Vivian went straight to the point. It seemed that she wanted to remind Rocky that their main purpose for
coming to the Ethereal Valley this time was to open the entrance to the Holy-Evil World. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
"I know what you are thinking. However, let's just wait until we escort them to the designated area,"
Rocky replied without any reluctance.
"What? You don't have to be so kind to these people! Wait a minute. Do you have a crush on Alex? Is it
what this is about?" Truth be told, Vivian was sometimes annoyed at Rocky's generosity and
helpfulness. After all, she was born in the Shura Race, and they were known to have a culture of doing
things according to their own interests. Hence, she didn't understand why Rocky would go to such
extent to help people that he barely knew.
"So what if I do? Am I not allowed to have a concubine?" Rocky replied jokingly.
"Well, I actually have no objection to that. But just remember that the two Godly Geniuses won't let you
go if they know about this!" Vivian glared at Rocky before she shook her head and laughed.
"Don't worry. I just want Alex to get what she wants. Think of it as our thanks for her support to us,"
Rocky said with a gentle smile.
"Okay, fine. Whatever!" Because of the times that they spent together, Vivian already knew what kind of
person Rocky was, and no matter what she did, she would not be able to change his mind. Besides,
she just came to assist Rocky in his task, so she had no problem doing how he wanted to do things.
After resting for about four hours, Rocky and the rest got back on their feet and went on their way.
A whole day passed, and the team of the Wankong Clan still did not encounter anything out of the
ordinary.
Except for a few demonic spiritual beasts, they were able to handle things quite smoothly.
"It seems that we can get out of the snow land very soon." As Rocky looked onwards, he saw
numerous icebergs at the distance. But behind those icebergs, he could catch a glimpse of reflected
rays of the setting sun, which indicated a whole other area.
However, just as Rocky and the others thought they were about to reach the end of the snow land, a
deafening roar suddenly echoed and shook the vicinity.
Rocky could not help but frown while he looked in the direction where the roar came from. Afterward,
he saw many spiritual lights flickering in the northeast. From where he was standing, it appeared as if
there were spirit warriors fighting in the distance.
'It seems that I am about to see something good!' A subtle smile was revealed on Rocky's face after he
sensed something. Then, he approached Alex and said, "Young Master, you and the other spirit
warriors should stay here. Tripp and I will go there and have a look."
"No. I'll go with you! Finnegan can stay here with the rest," Alex proposed. It seemed that she was also
interested in what was happening.
Rocky hesitated for a moment, but then he eventually agreed.
After a while, he, Alex, and Vivian headed towards the northeast, where they saw the other spirit
warriors.
Not long after, they saw that more than twenty spiritual warriors were actually fighting with a ferocious
Ice Phoenix that was flying in the air. The aura of the Ice Phoenix was actually equal to a Spiritual
Emperor at the peak stage, so it was extremely strong. Judging from the rich spiritual energy that it
kept on emitting, it could easily be said that the Ice Phoenix was no ordinary spiritual beast. In fact, at
its level, it could be considered as the king of the spiritual beasts.
Among those spirit warriors, who were facing the Ice Phoenix, there were two premium-stage Spiritual
Emperors, two medium-stage Spiritual Emperors, three primary-stage Spiritual Emperors, and the rest
were Spiritual Kings. Based on the situation, it could be inferred that the spirit warriors from more than
three of the noble clans had joined hands.
However, although there were many talented spirit warriors out there, it was apparent that they couldn't
have the advantage over the Ice Phoenix, whose strength was equal to a Spiritual Emperor at the peak
stage.
Upon seeing that the spirit warriors were fighting together against a spiritual beast, Rocky instantly
became intrigued. He speculated that there must be a huge reason behind this, so he quickly observed
what was going on.
Before long, Rocky noticed that the Ice Phoenix seemed to be guarding a strange and huge ice tree
behind it. Upon closer inspection, he could see a large lair on the ice tree, and there was a faint flicker
of spiritual light in the lair. Usually, based on his experience, this signified the presence of a divine
treasure. Although the existence of divine treasures should be very rare, it must be possible here in the
Ethereal Valley.
Acting on his instincts, Rocky hurriedly said to Alex and Vivian, "I think there is a treasure in the lair. I
will go and see if I can get it."
"What? You can't go! It's too risky. Can't you see what's going on? All of those Spiritual Emperors have
already joined hands, but they still can't succeed. What makes you think that you can get it?!" Alex
strongly refused.
On the other hand, Vivian didn't say anything. After all, she knew that in reality it was just a piece of
cake for Rocky to get the treasure in the lair if he used his real strength. However, if he was trying to
get it while only exhibiting the strength of a Spiritual King, it might be pretty difficult to do it.
"But my gut says that it could be a divine treasure. It's worth taking the risk!" Rocky said persuasively.
Although the divine treasure might not have a high rank, it was still something that was extremely rare
in the Supreme Ether Land.
"You think that it's a divine treasure? That's impossible!" Although Alex wasn't that knowledgeable
about treasures, she at least knew how rare divine treasures could be. In fact, it was said that they only
appeared in legends.
"Did you forget that this is the Ethereal Valley? Anything is possible, including the presence of a divine
treasure. Also, think about it logically. Why would these clans' spirit warriors work together with all their
might if it isn't for something very precious?" Rocky asked with a straight face.
"You have a point. But this spiritual beast is astonishingly powerful! What can you do about it?" Of
course, Alex still had a lot of misgivings. She knew that Rocky was powerful, but she didn't want him to
take such a huge risk.
"Let me just have a go at it. Wait for me here." As soon as Rocky finished his words, he quickly rushed
over and approached the ice tree.
At the same time, even though the spirit warriors had combined their efforts to take down the Ice
Phoenix, they were still unable to break through its impregnable defense. In fact, they were already
frustrated that they were on the verge of giving up. They thought that even though the treasure in the
lair was very attractive, it would not be worth it if they lost their lives.
Since most of the spirit warriors had started to give up, even the remaining medium-stage and
premium-stage Spiritual Emperors also had no choice but to retreat.
However, just as these spirit warriors backed off one after another, a figure suddenly rushed out of
nowhere and bravely approached the Ice Phoenix. It seemed that he wanted to break through its
defenses on his own.
