CHAPTER 467 COLLISION TRAINING

During the past two days that he had been training hard, Rocky started to feel something strange that

went on with his body. Despite his training, his body acted odd—it seemed not to adapt to the strength

that it had gained over the workout. As of now, the evil spiritual power in his body had already reached

the third grade of the Heavenly Stage. Nevertheless, it was quite strange that he still stayed in the first

grade of the Heavenly Stage. During his training, there had been a mismatch between his evil spiritual

power and the one that he had, hence, his body was not able to adjust well. In order to take control of

the energetic spiritual power, he should start practicing his skill to the third level of the Demonic Fire

Skill. Should everything go well, then he would be able to practice both the evil spiritual power and the

Fire spiritual power at the same time, all within his body as a circulation.

Having too much more than his current strength, the excessive power in Rocky's body caused him so

much pain. Sore and aching, his body meridians went through excruciating pain every time when he

finished a circulation with the two kinds of spiritual powers that he had. As for spirit manipulators, every

time they upgraded to a new level of strength, the meridians of their entire body would expand. On the

other hand, Rocky's body had significantly improved and its strength surpassed that of most people

with the help of the magical saliva for his cultivation. However, when compared that with some other

spirit manipulator's body at the Heavenly Stage, his body's meridians were still considered to be much

stronger than theirs. In conclusion, he should not really be experiencing so much pain and agony with

his new found strength.

But now, his current spiritual powers had two kinds of natures. On top of that, the Fire spiritual power

kept absorbing the middle and high level Dark Heaven Eggs during its cultivation lately, which was

already considered to be of significant improvement. In other words, the two different spiritual powers

inside his body had forced his meridians to suffer twice as much of the intensity of one spiritual power.

With that being said, his body's meridians had reached a limit, which was way too much for his

threshold. If he did not improve his grade as soon as possible, then he would not be able to achieve the

normal cultivation in the shortest time. And if he tried to keep doing the cultivation, his body might get

overworked and might even collapse at any moment. Anyone who would experience that would be in

so much danger.

Right under his current situation, Rocky had no choice but to go with the most sensible thing to do—to

find a way on how to make a breakthrough so that he could reach the second grade of the Heavenly

Stage.

Meanwhile, as Rocky recalled the fight that he just had with Furious Long-nosed Bear two days ago,

something randomly popped in his mind. Right towards the end of their fight, he remembered feeling

something changed in his body, right after he encountered a strong impact from Furious Long-nosed

Bear. Having not felt anything like it before, it seemed as if he had enough strength to fight. However,

the tricky part in the situation was that though he knew that he had enough strength, his body was

weak and would not allow such a thing. And because of that, he had not been able to raise his spiritual

power to fight against his opponent the best way he could.

'So, if I imagine this correctly, I need to train my body to become stronger so that I can make a

breakthrough and reach the higher grade. Because as for me, the stronger the spiritual power the

better for it would be such a waste if I don't have a strong enough body to release the power, ' Rocky

thought to himself. By how it looked, it seemed that he had already found a clue on how to solve his

own problem. As Marin had once mentioned, after a warrior reached the Heavenly Stage, a very strong

impact would happen to his or her body every single time they made a breakthrough. Hence, it should

be expected that something horrible might happen if there was not enough preparation made to the

person's body.

Considering such things, Rocky thought that if he ever wanted to make a breakthrough to achieve his

goals, then he would have to train his body harder than what he was used to.

With this, it made complete sense that he had not been able to break through the bottleneck, all

because his body was not yet ready. In fact, the power of the Holy Dragon Bead in his body was much

stronger than the power of the Dragon Spirit Bead. And as a result, his body needed to be stronger in holds text © rights.

order for him to make a breakthrough.

Suddenly, Rocky's eyes lit up as if he had already figured out the root of his problem. Now that he knew

what to do, he immediately chose to spend another whole day in the cave just to heal the injuries that

he had sustained. Feeling better with his right shoulder, he left the cave with Rainbow Glow Unicorn,

and started their journey heading to the dangerous path of the Myriad Beasts Ground.

Knowing that there might be a high chance of danger in the journey, Rocky opted not to take Uriah or

Rubygon with him. And besides, he thought that there would be several more days for the two of them

to heal their injuries and recover, which was why he asked Rainbow Glow Unicorn and not either of the

two. In addition to that, he thought that Rainbow Glow Unicorn would be able to help him escape from

the impending danger. With its power, he could hide himself and save his life by using the skill of

animalization.

Although he already had a backup plan in case something came up, Rocky still dared not to be

careless. During the entire journey, he did nothing but moved forward quite cautiously. After about an

hour, in the tall weeds, he found a Pillar-horned Rhinoceros that was sleeping. Being at the third grade

of the four-star level, it looked like it was a mixture of a lizard and a rhinoceros due to its body being

long and flat. By looking at its outside appearance, Rocky could tell that it was very strong. The Pillar-

horned Rhinoceros had a pillar on the top of its head, which was as thick as an adult's arm. The

markings on its body were like stars, all over its body.

Rocky's face also grew solemn at the sight of such a wonderful animal in front of him. All of a sudden,

he took his upper clothes off. With only his pants on, his sturdy and muscular body seemed to be

beaming with strength. Meanwhile, after giving a signal to the Rainbow Glow Unicorn to stay behind, he

then raised his spiritual power and threw himself towards the Rhinoceros. Turning into a shadow, he

dashed at the animal at full speed.

Feeling a sense of a strong spiritual power, the once sleeping Rhinoceros suddenly woke up. As soon

as it opened its eyes, it saw someone throwing himself at it at such a high speed. Its sharp eyes then

widened. Standing up with much vigor, it showed no sign of weakness as it was ready to fight for its life

at the sight of an intruder.

Boom!

Rocky and the Rhinoceros crashed into each other toe-to-toe. Unarmed, Rocky held the pillar, the one

on top of the rhinoceros's head, as tightly as he could. Right at that moment, the two of them looked

like they were gladiators who were trying their best to win the bout.

However, the Rhinoceros had its head up which enabled it to push Rocky back in a split second. Rocky

slipped back several steps all at once as he tried to regain his balance.

"Wow! I can't believe that this Rhinoceros is indeed a formidable opponent with such amazing strength.

Well, I guess that I can make the most out of this one. It can just help me with training my body." Rocky

said calmly, as he was unbothered by the strange eye contact he had with the Rhinoceros. Smiling, he

secretly thought that having an odd opponent at that moment was a fun idea.

Based on his conclusion before starting the journey, Rocky was pretty sure that he had to train himself

and upgrade to another higher grade in order to make a breakthrough in his power. As a result, he

would need to do a very systematic training to provide his body the necessary exercise. That was why

he felt excited at the sight of the Rhinoceros. With its strong four legs and its amazing strength, Rocky

would be able to take use of it to train his body completely.

Just after regaining his balance, Rocky charged forward once again without any hesitation. On the

other side, the Rhinoceros's desire to fight seemed to fully arouse at this moment. Realizing what

Rocky was doing, the Rhinoceros rushed toward him with its huge body, ready to attack.

Boom! With a loud rumble, the man and the beast had another tough collision. Simultaneously, a huge

airwave blew around the area due to the sheer force of the collision. The force of the impact upon

collision was a lot stronger than the last time, resulting in the trembling of Rocky's arms. With his

muscles almost vibrating, it was clear that he was experiencing some very strong force as of the

moment.

Yelling loudly into the air, his spiritual power rose immediately. His whole body then burst with the

power and pressure, which then he used to fight against the Rhinoceros. Foreseeing that its opponent

had good resistance, the Rhinoceros was about to jerk with its head up, aiming to send Rocky flying

out of the battlefield. But, instead of slipping back just like what he had done last time, he stood firmly

on the spot this time around.

After a while, the two seemed not to make any progress with their fight. Retreating for a few steps, they

collided again and started another round.

Over and over again, they continued with this process—collide, wrestle, retreat, collide,

wrestle...Continuing for almost six hours, Rocky had finally come into a halt as his body and his

spiritual power became exhausted.

Meanwhile, the Rhinoceros was no better shape than Rocky. Although there was no injury found on its

body, it was out of breath, as if it had used up most of its strength and was ready to collapse at any

given moment. It glanced at Rocky helplessly as if it was looking at someone really crazy in front of it.

Then, it turned and slowly walked away, as if it would never hurt Rocky again.

As the Rhinoceros was out of sight, Rocky sat down on the ground with a heavy thud. Tired, he felt that

the muscles of his arms were heavy and difficult to lift, as if a thousand pounds of something were

hanging on them. Also, he felt that his feet were sore and numb.

Rocky then put on his clothes right after he was done taking a short rest and left the place with

Rainbow Glow Unicorn. After a short while, they found a tree hole nearby which they thought was safe.

He then asked Rainbow Glow Unicorn to stand sentry outside, while he himself walked alone into the

tree hole. He then drank two drops of the magical saliva and started his cultivation in the hopes of

recovering his spiritual power.
