CHAPTER 961 SEARCH FOR THE ANCIENT SPIRITUAL BEAST
After that, Rocky undid the state of Spirit Possession with Ken, and because he didn't use too much of
his spiritual power in keeping the state, there was no obvious side effect on him. He could still move
freely afterward, and he went to sit cross-legged on the ground, as he adjusted his breath for a while.
"It is unbelievable that something so special is hiding underneath the Mysterious Cave! Where is that
ancient spiritual beast sealed?" Rocky looked around and noticed that the hole above his head had
shrunk to the size of a well's mouth, and the light was so further up that it was almost too dark to see.
Several stalagmites were scattered around him, but because of the dim light, he could not see much of
the whole area.
'I can feel something... There is a breeze blowing from the right!' Rocky noticed that there was a faint
wind blowing from the right which was supposed to be the north direction. He looked that way, his eyes
squinting in the darkness. When he could not make out what was there, he shrugged and started
moving to the direction of the wind.
After about five minutes, he noticed that there were fewer stalagmites on his path, and a big entrance
loomed in front of him. A chill passed through him, as he peered inside and saw the pitch-black cave
that laid ahead. Terrifying aura emanated from somewhere inside.
"It looks very dangerous inside..." Rocky murmured to himself. Of course, it was a familiar feeling for
him and was not intimidating in the least, even if the aura in the cave was stronger than the one he felt
in the Myriad Beasts Ground or the Black Sand Abyss. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Without a trace of hesitation or fear, he briskly stepped into the entrance of the cave and made his way
along its tunnel-like passage.
Before long, the tunnel widened into a spacious passage, and it was so big that he could not see the
other end. Here, the rocks overlapped like countless underground hills, the ground rising and falling
from time to time.
At the same time, he also felt a strong aura hidden in it, which was no less than that of a spirit-
manipulated beast at the fourth grade of the five-star level. It meant that there were powerful beasts in
it, but unfortunately, because of its surroundings, the aura was quite chaotic. He couldn't sense them
enough to see if what he was sensing was one powerful beast or if there were multiple weaker beasts.
With the rough information he detected, he could not let his guard down. He tried his best to hide his
aura and then jumped as high as he could. At the same time, he looked around cautiously.
He made his way forward in that way, jumping and hiding, and reached about dozens of meters from
the entrance. Suddenly, he felt his feet land on something soft as if he had stepped on a pillow, and
when he looked down, something black was protruding from the rock that he had just landed on.
He was stunned at first, but his instinct told him that something was wrong. He jumped back and away
from the black thing. Right on cue, the bulge under his feet suddenly moved, and in the darkness, two
snow-white eyes opened silently, instantly dispelling the darkness around.
Rocky took this opportunity to look down, and saw that he had stepped on what seemed to be the belly
of some beast, as it was rounded like a ball. On both sides of its belly were countless thin limbs that
resembled caterpillar's limbs.
However, before he could look at it closely, a silvery-white web-like mucus that was about several
meters wide enveloped him.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Rocky immediately jumped up and waved his hand at the same
time to shoot a wave of Evil Flame. Because of the improvement of his strength, the Evil Flame had
changed from pure black to black with fiery red luster. This change was mainly because his power with
Fire nature that had formed the Evil Flame had been greatly increased.
After the Evil Flame collided with the web-like mucus, the mucus was immediately burned, but the Evil
Flame maintained its momentum and continued to fly forward.
Rocky was also surprised, as he didn't expect that the Evil Flame would be that strong. Generally
speaking, the power of the Evil Flame could be counteracted by the attacks of the spirit-manipulated
beasts of such a level. He knew that when he became stronger, his Evil Flame did too, but he did not
expect it to grow this strong.
After the Evil Flame flew forward for a distance, it exploded like fireworks, which gave enough light for
Rocky to see the giant beast's entire body.
"It seems to be a supernatural beast." When Rocky saw the colossal beast in front of him, he
immediately inferred that an ordinary spirit-manipulated beast couldn't have such an aura and gigantic
form. Moreover, he was now in the territory of the spiritual race, so the giant beast in front of him was
undoubtedly a supernatural beast.
This beast, with its aura above the fourth grade of the five-star level, was much stronger than a
guardian beast, let alone a spirit-manipulated beast. Therefore, Rocky dared not be careless.
He opened the Magic Spiritual Space and called out Robin first. He could not call Ken because of the
recent Spirit Possession between him and Ken. As of that moment, Ken had yet to recover the spiritual
power it had consumed earlier, so he decided to call it only if he really needed to.
As soon as Robin came out, Rocky asked it to use its advantage in speed to attract the ball-shaped
supernatural beast's attention, which would give them some advantage. On the other hand, he also
took advantage of the terrain to play hide and seek with the beast and began a guerrilla battle.
The ball-shaped beast was too huge and slow-moving, so it was helpless and had no way to deal with
Rocky and Robin. However, its skin was so rough and thick that even Rocky's Evil Flame could make
no difference. The beast could not reach them, let alone attack them, but at the same time, their
attacks were as good as tickles on its rough skin, doing no damage at all.
After a long while, as the supernatural beast seemed to be getting tired, it suddenly turned its huge
body away from them and slowly squirmed to hide once again, forgetting its two opponents.
After the beast had crawled away, Rocky breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it had not lost its temper
easily, and it reacted very slowly. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to defeat it, even if he used up
all his spiritual power.
"That supernatural beast is quite powerful. Even when I had Robin to help me, I could not even
damage it at all," Rocky murmured to himself.
After resting for a while, he continued to move forward with Robin. This time, he was smart enough to
let Robin explore the way ahead. Since it had mutated earlier and reached the qualification of a
guardian beast, it was very sensitive and could easily distinguish the position of a supernatural beast.
With this outstanding ability, Rocky was able to go deeper into the cave safely. After Ken recovered, he
also summoned it, and the three of them continued to advance into the depths of the cave.
At the same time, a delicate figure seemed to be shuttling through the maze-like Mysterious Cave with
a bit of anxiety.
"Does that guy really want to go deep into the cave to see the sealed ancient spiritual beast? Is he
stupid or maybe he has a death wish?" the delicate figure murmured to herself and disappeared in the
blink of an eye.
