CHAPTER 534 THE MASTER HAD BEEN THERE
"If it recovers much better, we can continue to set out on our journey," Rocky said to Sabina. It had
taken them almost a day to fight the Furious Long-nosed Bear. So, a lot of spirit manipulators would
have overtaken them.
"Okay." Sabina nodded her head and looked up towards Tasha who was unable to move and put on
the back of Rubygon.
It seemed that Tasha was tired of scolding, so she merely stared at Rocky with rage. She seemed quite
eager to bite him to death.
"Why are you controlling her and letting her stay with us?" Sabina asked.
"From now on, she is our chip," Rocky replied raising his eyebrows.
"Chip?" Sabina was confused after hearing his words.
"This girl is the precious disciple of the imperial preceptor of the Magic Phoenix Empire. If the Magic
Phoenix Empire gets the Sea Blue Magic Jade, we could exchange it with her. Then we may be
unrequired to take any action," Rocky said shrewdly.
"You are so despicable!" Sabina said with total contempt.
"Thank you so much for your compliment," Rocky responded calmly in agreement.
"But it seems that it is indeed a good thing for us to save her risking our lives," Sabina said of the
thought that Rocky's idea was great. After all, they had saved Tasha at the risk of their own lives.
Hence, it was reasonable for them to get some benefits back from her.
Then Rocky threw the three-tailed fox, which curled up beside, into his own Magic Spiritual Space.
After that, he continued moving towards the peculiar light along with Sabina, Uriah, Rubygon and
Tasha, who was carried on the back of Rubygon.
Simultaneously, the phoenix spirit manipulators of the Magic Phoenix Empire led by Erica were also
looking for Tasha.
"Erica, what should we do now? If we are unable to find Tasha, the imperial preceptor would blame us,"
a woman spoke while walking in front of Erica. Dressed in blue, she looked quite matured.
"We will find her out for sure. She is extremely clever and knows how to act according to the changing
circumstances." Even though worried, Erica obviously was not thinking about extreme situations. In holds text © rights.
fact, she shouldn't have taken Tasha along with her this time. After all, as Tasha was not that powerful,
it was not that safe for her to enter the Myriad Beasts Ground. However, since Tasha had insisted on
going there, Erica agreed to let her go with her. But she never expected things to go wrong this way.
"Erica, there is something that belongs to Tasha here." A sweet voice suddenly came from one end of
the group.
Hearing this, Erica rushed over immediately along with the other phoenix spirit manipulators. Soon,
they saw a phoenix spirit manipulator picking up an earring from a branch.
"This is Tasha's earring."
"She must have certainly passed by here."
"But, there are visible bloodstains here. Is she in danger?"
"These footprints definitely belong to a wild spirit-manipulated beast."
In no time, the group of phoenix spirit manipulators were able to find some bloodstains and a row of
huge footprints on the nearby grass.
"What should we do now?" The phoenix spirit manipulators threw a sudden glance at Erica, as she was
the most powerful one among them as their leader.
"It might be useless to look for her in this way. Well, you all proceed towards the peculiar light. I will
follow these footprints on the Glint Phoenix, in search of Tasha. And I will meet you all tomorrow
afternoon," Erica said, pondering for a moment.
All the phoenix spirit manipulators exchanged looks and then nodded.
In an instant, Erica summoned her Glint Phoenix from the Magic Spiritual Space. Then she rode the
Glint Phoenix into the air and disappeared.
Soon after, Erica arrived at the valley of strange stones where Rocky, Sabina and Tasha had stayed
before.
"Well, it seems that there had been a battle here." Erica had discovered traces of fighting around as
she jumped down from the Glint Phoenix.
Erica then continued to ride the Glint Phoenix along the traces. Not before long, she found the place
where Rocky and Sabina killed the bear.
Erica was shocked when she saw the dead body of the bear lying on the ground. The bear had been
dead for a long time.
"Who could kill this Furious Long-nosed Bear of the fourth grade of the five-star level?" Erica also found
that the debris was scattered all over the ground and that the place was burned to black. The dead
bear had lost a palm and was covered with severe wounds. With no doubt, it had been through a fierce
battle.
But, according to Erica's experience, she speculated that there were no more than two people who had
killed the five-star bear.
However, to kill a wild spirit-manipulated beast of the fourth grade of the five-star level, one of them
must be at least at the Supernal Stage.
"Is there a master at the Supernal Stage seeking for the Sea Blue Magic Jade?" Erica suddenly looked
serious and worried with knitted eyebrows.
This time, she was ordered by the imperial preceptor to seek for the Sea Blue Magic Jade. Logically
speaking, no one else knew that the object appearing might be the Sea Blue Magic Jade, so the
masters at the Supernal Stage or the higher level wouldn't appear.
Furthermore, the Myriad Beasts Ground was extremely dangerous. If it weren't for the rare treasures to
appear, even the masters of the Supernal Stage wouldn't be willing to take a risk to enter there.
Therefore, it was decided that no one with strong strength would come to grab the treasure this time.
However, the moment Erica witnessed the dead bear, she changed her mind. With hesitation, she
climbed on the back of the Glint Phoenix and went to meet the other phoenix spirit manipulators.
At the same time, outside the Myriad Beasts Ground, teams, made up of spirit manipulators from
various empires, headed towards the peculiar light from various directions. But along the way, they had
to encounter the very powerful wild spirit-manipulated beasts, which caused many of them severely
injured and even dead.
However, there were still many spirit manipulators who were unafraid of death. They bravely continued
moving towards the peculiar light.
The next day, Rocky, Sabina, Tasha and their beasts arrived at the river valley not far away from the
peculiar light.
"Hey, let me go, you bad guy..." Tasha, who was on the back of Rubygon, kept shouting, while the rest
of them were crossing the river.
"This girl is full of energy. She seems not to be thirsty despite yelling from this morning." Rocky gazed
at Tasha on the back of Rubygon. She seemed to have cursed him for countless times.
"In fact, you don't have to do that. Just place her down and keep watch on her. She can't run too far
anyway." Maybe since both of them were girls, Sabina sympathized with Tasha.
"She is a smart girl. Who knows what tricks she might come up with if I let her go? The lesser the
trouble would be, the better. We have almost arrived at the destination anyway," Rocky said while
looking towards Sabina.
"As you like." Sabina didn't say anything else.
After the life and death situation they encountered yesterday, their relationship had suddenly become
very subtle and Sabina was no more indifferent towards Rocky.
Just then, both of them felt a strong vibration. The river under their feet had suddenly seemed to be
boiling and surging.
Upon seeing this, the two raised their heads towards the peculiar light. They saw that the light, which
was not far away, was shrinking constantly.
