Chapter 153 Searching For The Treasures
Now that Rocky had found the odd red light in his spiritual me, he used his skills to try and separate
the red light from it. Hours had passed by, and sweat was trickling down his face as he tried to separate
it in vain. It seemed that the red light waspletely fused with his spiritual me. He couldn''t separate
it or manipte it, no matter how hard he tried. His failure to separate the red light also meant that he
was currently unable to use the spiritual power of the red light, which represented the nature of Fire.
"It seems that without the power of the Holy Dragon Bead, it is impossible to manipte the power of
the red light. It can be only manipted by the dragon spiritual power," Rocky murmured to himself.
Yet, he was unwilling to give up so easily. He concentrated long and hard and began to try other ways
to do it. Yet, after making several attempts, he was still unable to separate the red light from his
spiritual me. Rocky knew he had to give up trying for now as he had a more pressing matter to deal
with at that moment. So, he put it aside and then continued to absorb the spiritual power of the Dark
Heaven Egg at the medium grade.
He kept absorbing such spiritual power for about a whole night. He concentrated on absorbing the
spiritual power and he could feel it flowing through his veins.
The sky was still gray and the sun hadn''t risen yet when a neb light bright like a yellow jewel began
to shine abruptly. It came inside the col where Rocky was hiding for his secret cultivation. The streams
of its halo which were like ripples on theke spread around the area. Meanwhile, countless sand and
stones were floating around and continued to revolve around slowly under the influence of the
spreading nebe light.
The next second, within the nebe light, Rocky opened his eyes abruptly. His eyes turned sharp and
fierce. His heartbeat quickened and his whole body pulsed with power.
Boom, boom, boom...This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
The moment Rocky opened his eyes, the sand and stones floating in the air exploded like they were
out of control. Immediately, the sand fog was spreading all over the sky. Afterwards, the light of the
nebe continued to fade slowly, and the breath of a spirit maniptor at the second grade of the
Earthly Stage appeared in an instant. Through the help of the spiritual power of the Dark Heaven Egg
and a night''s hard practice, he finally finished his cultivation and reached the second grade of the
Earthly Stage.
"This Dark Heaven Egg is really awesome!" Rocky eximed. He could feel the energy coursing
through his veins. Despite his excitement, he soon regted his breathing and calmed his body so that
nobody would find out his real strength. Afterposing himself, he jumped out of the rock where he
was sitting.
Uriah, Rocky''s war beast, was lying aside to take care of Rubygon. It sensed that its master had made
a breakthrough in his strength and immediately roared excitedly, "Howl!" Even Uriah was excited that
Rocky had made such progress.
''Unexpectedly, a Dark Heaven Egg at the medium grade could offer me quite enough spiritual power
that I needed to reach the second grade of the Earthly Stage. But now there''s only one left. It seems
that if I want to make a breakthrough and reach the third grade, I have to get some more Dark Heaven
Eggs. Even getting the ones at the primary grade will be fine for me. To get more of the Eggs, I have to
start my n right away, '' Rocky thought.
In fact, when he helped to cure Jackson''s wound yesterday, he had already thought of a good n.
Since the magical saliva had a special attraction to the Dark Heaven Insects, he could use it to capture
more of them and breed them secretly. In this way, he would have enough Dark Heaven Eggs to
improve his strength and finally reach the Heavenly Stage.
Of course, even though he had figured out such a good n, it was very difficult to implement it. He
also had to be very careful to make sure no one would figure out what he was doing. The whole n
would be very tricky. The nests of the Dark Heaven Insects could have been anywhere under the
Gehenna Boarder, and ording to some historical records along with Rocky''s calction, there were
less than 20 Dark Heaven Insects in the whole Gehenna Border. Therefore, it was very difficult to
locate where these nests of the Dark Heaven Insects were. It was impossible to dig the whole Gehenna
Border to search for the Dark Heaven Insects. In addition, this was only the first problem to be solved.
More tricky problems would definitely ur once he carried out his n. He had to be able to
foreshadow the possible problems he might encounter.
Fortunately, Rocky was actually from the modern world. He was equipped with modern knowledge and
ideas that people in his current world would have a hard time imagining. So despite all the possible
difficulties, he already had some ideas about how to find the nests of the Dark Heaven Insects.
After leaving the col with Uriah and Rubygon, he returned to the vige in the east to ask Sue for help
in taking care of his Rubygon. After that, he took Uriah back to the military camp, and then found Thor
and Joss.
"Captain, where have you been? We''ve been looking for you all morning," Thor and Joss said eagerly.
As soon as they saw Rocky, they looked like they saw a living god. Their smiles were so wide that it
reached their eyes. The only difference was that they didn''t kneel down and worship Rocky. Their
worship, of course, was because Rocky had rescued them several times and already became a very
famous figure in the military camp.
Rocky rolled his eyes and asked, "Thor, does the sixth squad have any patrol task today?"
"Yes, we have. We were about to look for you and report to you about that, Captain…" Thor said and
nodded at once.
"All right! You two gather the other spirit maniptors now and we''ll set out for the task immediately. By
the way, ask everyone to bring a spade, a rope and a hook..." Rocky nodded and ordered. His n was
already in ce. Being a captain dide in handy for situations like this. He didn''t choose to be
captain, but he might as well use its benefits.
"Captain, why do we need to bring these things?" Joss asked curiously. He thought those things were
not useful for the patrol task. Rocky narrowed his eyes. They shouldn''t ask too much about his
intentions.
"Why do you have to ask? Just follow my order. I''ll wait for you at the gate of the military camp. You all
meet me there within five minutes!" Rocky said sternly. He then took Uriah to the gate at once.
Although Thor and Joss were surprised to see that Rocky was so mysterious, they still trusted Rocky
and immediately went to summon the other spirit maniptors of the sixth squad.
It wasn''t long before the well-prepared sixth squad and Rocky met at the ce hundreds of meters
away from the military camp.
"Captain, the area we are going to patrol today is…" When Thor attempted to report to Rocky the area
they were to patrol that day, he was abruptly cut off. "Before carrying out our patrol task, we have to go
to a ce first. Follow me!" Rocky said simply. After that, he and Uriah turned around and left.
The sixth squad''s spirit maniptors immediately looked confused as this wasn''t part of their task.
They didn''t know where Rocky was taking them. For a moment, they furrowed their eyebrows and
wondered where they were going. Yet, for them, Rocky was a god-like existence, and no matter what
Rocky told them to do, they would follow his order.
Thus, the sixth squad soon caught up with Rocky. They shook away their doubts and trusted his
leadership.
Led by Rocky, the sixth squad came to the vige where the tragedy took ce yesterday. The sixth
squad gaped at the sight. When they arrived there, it waspletely deserted. Most of the houses
were burned to ruins, and the dead vigers were already buried based on Marin''s order. All they knew
was that all the people in this vige were dead except for the one who had been saved by Rocky.
Now, the vige could also be regarded as a ghost vige. It seemed rather spooky even in broad
daylight, with fog floating around it.
"Captain, what are we doing here?" Joss asked timidly. He was carefully looking around for fear that
something would pop up all of a sudden. Even the other spirit maniptors of the sixth squad were
wondering what they were doing there. They were all distressed by that ce and wanted to leave as
soon as they could.
Instead of answering Joss''s question, Rocky went straight to the entrance of the Dark Heaven Insect''s
cave which he had discovered yesterday. Because the ground formation of the vige was rtively
soft, the entrance hadpletely copsed and was filled with sand and stone. Now, only arge pit
was in view.
"Start digging from here," Rocky said to the sixth squad''s spirit maniptors while pointing to therge
pit.
The sixth squad''s spirit maniptors looked at Rocky in confusion. They were all at a loss as to why
they should dig there.
"Captain, what are we going to do?" Thor and Joss couldn''t help but ask.
"There are treasures down there, and whoever dug them can have them," Rocky said nonchntly.
As soon as they heard their captain''s words, they got very excited and began to exim one after
another.
"Captain, are there really treasures down here?"
"If there are treasures down here, I''ll be rich if I can find one."
"Captain, you are really nice and generous by taking us here to share the treasures."
They chattered in delight and gratitude. Soon, the other spirit maniptors jumped into the pit and dug
up crazily with the spades they brought with them. They dug so fast as if they would run out of
treasures if they didn''t find it soon. The thought of treasures gave them the strength and the motivation
they did not know they had. Thor and Joss thought it was a little strange but they also jumped into the
pit and began to dig for treasures. Rocky had always been mysterious from the very start. This was just
one of many of his odd orders.
Of course, they wouldn''t find any treasures below the pit. Rocky only used the treasures as the bait to
lure them into doing freebor. He knew he couldn''t do it by himself even if he tried.
When Rocky saw the Dark Heaven Insect got out from the underground again yesterday, he guessed
that it nned to go back to its nest. From what he gathered, he believed that under the pit, there must
be an ess to the Dark Heaven Insect''s nest.
His goal was to go to the Dark Heaven Insect''s nest to explore its every nook and cranny.
