CHAPTER 219 RUNAWAY

The spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage with their spirit-manipulated beasts ran after Rocky. But

they didn't go forward as Rocky stopped. Keeping a fair distance from Rocky may be safer at the

moment. They felt their auras radiate even though they could not physically see each other.

Each of them knew that the other spirit manipulators also wanted to get Rocky's Heaven Divine Lotus

Seeds. Besides, the situation was quite clear that the one who launched attacks late would be more

likely to earn the seeds without working hard for them.

In the eyes of the spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage, Rocky was a total nobody. Though they

didn't know how Rocky got the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, they were sure that Rocky would be

unable to maintain the eggs. Therefore, no matter who got the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds from Rocky

first, he would definitely become the next target.

They were powerful but they were also just at the Earthly Stage, which meant that a protracted battle

would undoubtedly cripple them. As a result, the one who attacked last would have a greater chance

obtaining the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds.

In this case, the spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage just waited and watched until someone

attacked first.

Time passed and Rocky stood still as well as his fellow spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage stood

against him. They were merely observing the movements of Rocky through the chunks of leaves from a

distance. They remained in a stalemate, but no one preferred to take the lead to break it.

Surrounded, Rocky understood that the spirit manipulators were waiting to profit from the others'

conflicts. That was why he stopped running. Instead of being chased, he stopped and tried to gain the

initiative.

Suddenly, a rumble came and instantly, the dense forest over there trembled.

Those spirit manipulators also noticed the abnormal noise and became on guard.

At that point, a beast in the shape of a rhinoceros rushed out of the forest and darted towards Rocky.

With a strong aura, it was a wild spirit-manipulated beast at the second grade of three-stars at least.

Immediately, the spirit-manipulated beasts beside the spirit manipulators all howled in fear. The most

powerful among them was just at the second grade of two-stars. Instinctively, they looked timid and

overcautious faced with a wild spirit-manipulated beast stronger than them.

Actually, the three-star wild spirit-manipulated beast was rare for an ordinary spirit manipulator. The

spirit manipulators were powerful themselves. A powerful spirit-manipulated beast would make them

even more formidable and fitter for a battle.

The wild spirit-manipulated beast ran into Rocky and the other spirit manipulators were startled. It

seemed that the wild spirit-manipulated beast came for the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds and Rocky's

fellow spirit manipulators thought he would be freaked out or even doomed in the blink of an eye.

What they cared about the most was the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, not Rocky's safety. If the wild

spirit-manipulated beast swallowed Rocky together with the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, it would be a

big loss for them.

Considering this, without hesitation, the spirit manipulators rushed towards Rocky and they were

determined to snatch the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds before the wild spirit-manipulated beast

attempted to swallow it. They had no time to think about how to take the seeds out of the Spiritual

Fairyland and had no choice but to discuss it later.

However, they didn't realize they had been taken in by Rocky. In fact, the three-star wild spirit-

manipulated beast was lured by the magical saliva in the bottle with him which he opened when he

stopped.

The special scent of the magical saliva could spread for miles away which made the wild spirit-

manipulated beasts easily get a scent of it. Though the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds were rich in

spiritual aura, it didn't have the special attraction like the magical saliva had. Unless a wild spirit-

manipulated beast was really close to the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, it would be attracted by the

spiritual aura of them.

Rocky attracted the three-star wild spirit-manipulated beast to make a mess and he knew the spirit

manipulators would be uneasy before it. Once they rushed out to launch attacks, he would then have

an opportunity to escape.

Almost simultaneously, the three-star wild spirit-manipulated beast and the spirit manipulators at the

Earthly Stage appeared before Rocky.

Threatened by the spirit manipulators, the wild spirit-manipulated beast violently stamped on the

ground. In an instant, the ground quaked under their feet. Then, tossing its head and tail, it blew itself

against the spirit manipulators.

The spirit manipulators were astounded at its fierce attack, and instead of taking it directly, they

stepped back to keep a distance away from the mad beast.

Based on the time lag he had figured out, Rocky suddenly sped up in one direction before the spirit

manipulators realized what had happened. Covered by the wild spirit-manipulated beast, he dashed

into a dense forest.

Realizing that Rocky took advantage of the disarray in order to escape, the spirit manipulators were

about to chase after him but the wild spirit-manipulated beast was so gigantic that it thoroughly blocked

their way. As a result, they did nothing other than helplessly watched Rocky disappear in the dense

forest.Content held by .

They did everything possible to steer clear of the wild spirit-manipulated beast getting in their way. The

lucky ones made it with their respective spirit-manipulated beasts, and then proceeded to run in the

direction of Rocky without a delay. However, the unlucky spirit manipulators turned to be the targets of

the wild spirit-manipulated beast.

Except three of them, all the other spirit manipulators were pinned down by the massive beast.

The three spirit manipulators held pace with their spirit-manipulated beasts in a mad rush to be the first.

On the other hand, Rocky was speeding along just ahead of them.

"Damn! That lad is weak but runs fast," one of the spirit manipulators grumbled.

They didn't know each other, but they all aimed at seizing the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds from Rocky.

It was preferable for them to work together.

"We seem to have been fooled by the lad! Here is an idea. Let's kill him together and we share the

Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds equally. That's pretty fair since there are, in total, three Heaven Divine

Lotus Seeds," the spirit manipulator in a blue robe forwarded. He was the most powerful spirit

manipulator among them.

"That makes sense. The lad will take the benefits if we fight against each other. No one will suffer

losses if we share it equally among ourselves."

"Alright. That's a deal, then."

The three spirit manipulators reached an agreement and planned to deal with Rocky with their joint

efforts. However, each of them were selfish and greedy, and thought about grabbing the Heaven Divine

Lotus Seeds first when Rocky was subdued and turning away with no consideration for the other two

spirit manipulators.

Rocky noticed that the three spirit manipulators, who appeared to have come to an agreement, were in

hot pursuit of him. The crisis was around the corner once more.
