CHAPTER 365 UNREMITTING SCHEMES
After kidnapping Marin's Verdanim, Rocky immediately let Verdanim take him to the base camp.
Kidnapping Verdanim was an impossible task for others, but for Rocky, it was just a piece of cake.
What was more, Verdanim seemed remarkably thrilled to be kidnapped by Rocky.
Four hours later, Verdanim managed to get Rocky at the base camp. It promptly took him to the beast
farm.
"Kid, what brought you here?" Sheridan, who was working in one beast stable, came to Rocky happily
when seeing him. Happiness flowed through him, warming his skin like the rays of the early summer
sun. His customary cautious grin exploded into an ecstatic smile that he had never worn before.
"Sheridan, coach me how to open the Magic Spiritual Space," Rocky said directly at the sight of
Sheridan.
"The Magic Spiritual Space? Someone at the Heavenly Stage can only open the Magic Spiritual Space.
Your strength now is not sufficient to open it," Sheridan responded with an odd expression, guessing
Rocky's intention.
"If you don't teach me, I will go find others." Rocky put a deceptive front to leave.
"Fine. I will train you." Sheridan compromised. Rocky was his beloved apprentice, after all.
"That's marvelous," Rocky uttered, raising his eyebrow.
"The foundation of the Magic Spiritual Space is its spiritual power and space it establishes, and the size
of it is determined by the spiritual power you have. The stronger the spiritual power is, the bigger space
becomes. The initiative usage of the Magic Spiritual Space was for people to carry their spirit-
manipulated beasts conveniently. Then many other usages were developed thereafter," Sheridan said
at a sluggish pace.
"Make it brief. Tell me precisely how to open the Magic Spiritual Space." Rocky hurried Sheridan,
stopping his patter.
"You need to be apprehensive of how to wield the Magic Spiritual Skill." Sheridan then imparted the
Magic Spiritual Skill to Rocky.
Rocky memorized it and, in a twinkle of an eye, tried to use it. He assembled his spiritual power and
reached out his left hand to discharge the spiritual power. Under the guidance of spiritual power, he
speedily identified an imperceptible crack and transmitted his spiritual power through it. And the crack
was ripped apart instantly.
"Great! You learn so fast as a bunny," Sheridan said excitedly. Excitement washed over him like
sunshine through fine white linen; he glowed from the inside out. Then he recognized something and
blurted, "That shouldn't be possible! You haven't reached the Heavenly Stage. Why could you open the
Magic Spiritual Space?"
"Can I go inside and lay my eyes on it?" Rocky neglected Sheridan's question. Content held by .
"Of course. Rocky, how did you cultivate yourself? How could you manage to reach the Heavenly
Stage in such a short time? But the Magic Spiritual Space you made must be extremely minor. It may
be entirely adequate to accommodate one or two spirit-manipulated beasts," Sheridan said, self-
assertive. He couldn't help but enter the crack, the access the Magic Spiritual Space opened by Rocky.
Rocky followed him in. As he stepped in, he heard Sheridan scream.
"Sheridan, what are you howling at?!" Rocky asked as he peered up. Then he was also rudely
awakened to see that the Magic Spiritual Space he established was not small at all, but was
substantially large. It was at least the size of a farm.
Such a Magic Spiritual Space could only be opened by spirit manipulators at least at the Supernal
Stage typically.
"Kid, how did you open such a huge Magic Spiritual Space?" Sheridan glanced at Rocky with
incredulity. His face dropped in an incredulous expression.
"I don't know either." Rocky shook his head. But he was skeptical that it might because of the Holy
Dragon Bead.
"Ha ha..." At that time, Sheridan burst into laughter.
Rocky rolled his eyes at Sheridan. Then he surveyed his Magic Spiritual Space. He had been worried
that his Magic Spiritual Space might not be significant enough to accommodate many spirit-
manipulated beasts. But now, he was reassured.
After having a glimpse, Rocky and Sheridan left the Magic Spiritual Space.
"Kid, can you explain to me how did you reach the first grade of the Heavenly Stage so fast?" Sheridan
pestered Rocky for the answer after leaving the Magic Spiritual Space.
"Keep it a secret for me," Rocky said and sauntered towards Verdanim.
At this time, a sturdy figure entered the beast farm. When he saw Rocky, he, in a dash, strode up and
stood in his way.
Rocky found out it was Dunn.
"Commander Dunn, what's up?" Rocky asked with his eyes narrowed.
"I eventually got you. Let's go have a drink together." Dunn laughed. The sound of his laughter was
bright and cheerful, like dandelions in summer days. He then placed his arm on Rocky's shoulder and
dragged him away.
Rocky was confused but still went with him.
After a while, Rocky was dragged by Dunn into a tavern in Evian City. After taking a seat, Dunn ordered
two bottles of alcohol and some dishes.
Dunn filled his and Rocky's bowl with alcohol and raised the bowl, asserting, "To our friendship out of
blows." Then he emptied the bowl in one go.
Seeing that, Rocky took up his bowl but only had a little.
"I presume you didn't come to fetch me up only to have a drink." Rocky said to Dunn directly.
"Literally, I require to ask you something. You didn't intend to be the Frontline Commander, but why did
you fight so hard in the competition? And why did you conceal your strength of the ninth grade of the
Earthly Stage? But don't get worked up. I didn't tell a single being about this thing. I only want to know
why you gave up such an excellent opportunity that many people crave for," Dunn said seriously.
"I'm not interested in it," Rocky said indifferently.
"But I found out you became a captain in the logistics camp. It's so mysterious that you declined to be
the Frontline Commander but became a small captain in the logistics camp. The Frontline Commander
is in charge of thousands of soldiers. It's such a tremendous honor. Most men and women would
respect you. Look at those Frontline Commanders in the base camp. They all assume important air in
front of others," Dunn responded indignantly, suggesting to be a little drunk.
"If you don't have anything else, I will leave." Rocky stood up and was going to take off, having no
interest in wasting time with Dunn.
"Rocky, I just wish to be allies with you. Aside from Sheridan, you are the only one congenial to me in
the Crimson Dragon Group," Dunn said, then he continued, "I'm going to the battlefront soon. I hope I
can have the golden opportunity to have a fight with you when I come back."
"We will discuss it later." Rocky cast a glimpse at Dunn and sauntered out of the tavern.
A figure appeared beside Dunn the moment Rocky left.
"Deliver the message that I already have an eye on Rocky," Dunn said, looking sober. Then that figure
disappeared immediately after Dunn finished talking.
