The Medallion

Chapter 69 Madness

"Well! You managed to take that one but I don't believe you can take another attack from me!" Tasha shouted angrily, clenching her teeth. She thought that another ferocious attack from her could easily take down Rocky. She had reached the ninth grade of the Mortal Stage so defeating Rocky should not be so difficult. But it did shock her to see Rocky standing safe and sound now. Tasha felt that she had been humiliated by Rocky. The strong desire to win the game sparkled in her eyes. It looked like she would never stop until she defeated Rocky.

But Tasha was unaware that she was on the brink of collapse. The Spirit Possession consumed lots of strength and spiritual power. Once the spirit manipulator was burned out by the Spirit Possession, the skill would fail to work immediately. But if the user didn't dismiss the skill in time, the spirit-manipulated beast's power inside the user's body would lose control, and the user would suffer immeasurable damage.

Despite such a situation, the strength left in her and the spiritual power she possessed were still enough to enable her to throw a formidable attack. Even if Rocky's dragon spiritual power could absorb her attack, Rocky would still get hit by the impact during the process. And considering the fact that he had got badly injured, how could he take a forceful impact anymore!

Rocky realized that he would have to find a new way to fight against Tasha's attack if he wanted to win the game.

Anybody else would definitely have second thoughts under such a situation. After all, Rocky was facing an opponent who had surpassed two grades more than him. It would hardly be possible that Rocky, a grade seven spirit manipulator, could take an attack from a grade nine one.

Rocky was an intelligent and audacious man. He had a plan under his sleeve. In a matter of few seconds, he had figured out a way to reverse the situation. Although it was an extremely risky step, Rocky had no other choice. He had to give it a shot.

He took out the last yellow spiritual crystal from his pocket. Everyone in the crowd was struck to see it. They didn't know how Rocky got the yellow spiritual crystal and why he took it out at that critical moment. They wondered what he would do with it.

"What the hell is he trying to do?" Marcia was equally puzzled when she saw Rocky take out the yellow spiritual crystal which she had sent him. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Meanwhile, everyone including the emperor didn't understand what Rocky was planning to do.

"Does he think that Tasha will give him time to upgrade his war beast? What a hopeless idiot!" Erica sneered. She thought that Rocky planned to use the yellow spiritual crystal to upgrade his war beast. And if he intended to do so, she knew that such a plan would be in vain.

On the other hand, the emperor, Priest Dean and Lena were wondering where Rocky got the yellow spiritual crystal from. How could a dethroned prince get such rare and priceless treasure?

While all were awestruck, Rocky stood beside Uriah with the yellow spiritual crystal. Uriah, however, was still trapped by Tasha's spiritual martial arts skill. As soon as it saw Rocky, it stopped struggling and whining. Staring at the yellow spiritual crystal in Rocky's hand, it immediately understood what its master wanted. Instantly, it opened its mouth wide without any hesitation.

"Thank you so much, little guy!" Rocky smiled and put the yellow spiritual crystal into Uriah's mouth.

Uriah swallowed it at once.

The audience began murmuring among themselves as they saw what had happened before their eyes.

"Is he trying to use the yellow spiritual crystal to upgrade his war beast's spiritual power? Does he want to reverse the situation by using his war beast?"

"It's a risky shot, but worth a try anyway. That's the only way left for him after all."

"But how can it be possible that the phoenix spirit manipulator would give him that chance? And the war beast also needs time to digest the yellow spiritual crystal."

While questions kept rising in the air, the spiritual power of the yellow spiritual crystal had begun surging up and filled Uriah's body. Soon the spiritual power started overflowing from its body, and there were rays of bright light sparkling around Uriah.

Tasha also thought that Rocky was using the yellow spiritual crystal to upgrade his war beast. How could she give Rocky such an opportunity to win against her? She charged towards Rocky with a powerful cry and began activating her spiritual power. She was planning to exert all the power left in her body to aim an attack at Rocky.

Uriah was writhing in pain because of the bursts of spiritual power inside its body. The spiritual power, however, kept increasing. It even broke through the fire chain that had trapped Uriah.

Everyone thought that Uriah would carry on with the bursting spiritual power and rush to fight against Tasha. But what Rocky did next shocked them further. He put his left hand on Uriah's forehead while Uriah was writhing on the ground with a painful roar.

Everyone was dumbstruck. They were filled with amazement at what they saw. They were wondering, 'What is he planning to do? Or has he decided to give up?'

With each passing moment, Tasha was getting closer and closer to Rocky. She kept approaching and the three giant tails behind her began blazing fiercely. They looked like three pillars of raging fire.

"Raging Flame Attack!" A few meters away from Rocky, Tasha stopped all of a sudden. When she opened her arms, her spiritual power burst out. Simultaneously, the three fire tails was targeting at Rocky like arrows shot from a bow. In a matter of seconds, they had enveloped Rocky.

Everyone was sure now that Rocky had lost to Tasha. There was absolutely no way he could tackle that attack. The attack that Tasha had launched this time was much more violent and powerful than the former one. No matter how puissant Rocky was, it would be impossible for him to take that attack from the three tails of fire. After all, everyone knew he was only at grade seven of the Mortal Stage.

Rocky, on the other hand, showed no fear on his face as he watched the rushing fire tails. He took out a bottle of the magical saliva from his pocket and drank down half of it. He knew that only a drop of the magical saliva would accelerate his metabolism and circulation of the spiritual power by leaps and bounds. Half a bottle would make it far easier to escape from that attack.

Obviously, he was taking a risk by putting all his eggs in one basket.

"Now!" After keeping back the bottle, Rocky widened his eyes and channeled his bursting dragon spiritual power into his left arm, which was on Uriah's forehead. The Dragon Spirit Mark around his left arm began to sparkle. No one could understand that Uriah's spiritual power was being channeled into Rocky's body through his left arm.

The fierce spiritual power was rushing from Uriah's body and was running inside Rocky through his energy meridians. With the help of the magical saliva which he drank moments ago, the circulation had finished in a matter of seconds. It had happened thirty times fast than before. After the circulation began inside Rocky, the spiritual power went back to Uriah's body.

All this while, Rocky felt like an explosion was going to take place inside him. If it was anybody else, they would have blown up and died after finishing such a quick circulation. The flow of such violent and powerful spiritual power inside would burst them in few seconds. But for two months Rocky had been using the magical saliva to speed up his cultivation. So, his body had been strengthened a lot by the magical saliva. And his body's endurance also had improved and surpassed that of most of the people.

During the circulation, the spiritual power inside Rocky had a quantum leap, which shocked everyone. They were fixed to the ground with eyes wide open and mouths agape.

While the power kept progressing and moving between Uriah and Rocky, the three fire tails were only a few inches away from Rocky.
