Chapter 258 Belly Dance
"Never mind. Since you do not want to express your sincerity, there is no need to continue our
conversation." Rocky threw a disappointed nce at Marin and then turned to leave. A mischievous
smile crossed one corner of his lips as soon as his back was turned away from Marin. He was sure that
Marin was in a state of great internal conflict because of his request. Rocky knew that Marin was not
the type of person who would break her words but, nheless, she wasn''t the type of person to agree
to such a ridiculous request. Rocky''s real intention for the request was to make fun of Marin.
"Fine! I will do as you asked. Come to my ce tonight!" Marin said firmly as she clenched her teeth.
Determination filled her countenance after what felt to her was an eternity of internal debate.
Rocky never expected that Marin would agree to his ridiculous request. After all, his request was only
intended to deride Marin. But since Marin agreed, it was Rocky who was caught off guard. He didn''t
know how to properly react. As Rocky pondered how to tell Marin that it was only a jest, Marin lowered
her head and went away with blushed cheeks.
"Is she really going to do a belly dance for me?" Rocky''s eyes grew big and his eyebrows went up in
anticipation. "A great show awaits me tonight!" Marin was a gorgeousdy with a voluptuous body. A
belly dance from her had the potential to make any man fall for her hard. Rocky remained in shock from
hearing Marin''s agreement to his request. The Marin he knew would rather die than do something like
that. But unexpectedly, Marin said yes to his absurd request; and it bowled him over in disbelief.
Rocky stopped trying to figure out why Marin agreed to his request and soon left to return to his ce.
He saw Uriah and Little Rubygon sitting in front of his door in a mncholic state as their eyes
wandered around, waiting to pick up a hint that he had returned. Both of them looked very worried
because Rocky had been gone for days. They soon saw Rocky walking towards them, and their eyes
couldn''t light up brighter than they did. They rushed towards Rocky and jumped to his arms. Rocky fell
to the groundughing as Uriah and Little Rubygon started to lick his face.
"Ha-ha! Stop! Boys! I haven''t washed my face for days! All right! All right! I know you two missed me so
much! But if you don''t stop licking me, I would lose ayer of skin on my face." Rocky gently pushed
Uriah and Little Rubygon back when it became obvious that they did not intend to stop anytime soon.
He lovingly stroked their heads between their ears as he rose to his feet. He walked towards the door
with Uriah and Little Rubygon on his sides and then entered theb. Rocky went to the table and took

out the map. He studied it under the gentle light of three night-luminous pearls. After a few minutes, he
was convinced that the area on the map was nowhere near the Gehenna Border. He was convinced
that it should be somewhere else.
Rocky was excited to find out what treasure was buried at that marked spot on the map. Unfortunately,
he was unable to figure out where the area was exactly. Finding out what treasures were hidden in that
ce would have to wait for now.
Even though Rocky''sst encounter almost killed him, he was able to get away with a lucky haul. Not
only did he near the sixth grade of the Earthly Stage, but also he walked away with three extremely
valuable treasures. In addition to the treasure map, he obtained a book containing a rare spiritual
martial arts skill and the Dragon me Pearl. Rocky knew that every spirit maniptor would give
anything to have the treasures that he found but more especially the book.
It was difficult for spirit maniptors to reach the Heavenly Stage, and it was equally difficult for them to
obtain a spiritual martial arts skill. This showed what Rocky''s luck really brought him through this time.
He could not help but admit that the ident turned out to be a truly blessed event.
There was a time when only those who obtained the power of spiritual race could be considered as
spirit maniptors. However, they developed techniques that allowed humans to learn spiritual martial
arts that, in turn, allowed them to be spirit maniptors. This was why ancient spirit maniptors
had many ordinary humans for students. This effectively increased the strength of their forces while
increasing the number of spirit maniptors in the Wild Spirit Land. That was the same time that
different types of spirit maniptors appeared—ordinary spirit maniptors and primordial spirit
maniptors, including royal spirit maniptors, phoenix spirit maniptors and so on.
But the primordial spirit maniptors who obtained the spiritual race''s power had their own limits. Most
of them only had the capability of creating the cultivation methods for the Mortal Stage and the Earthly
Stage. Only a handful of primordial spirit maniptors were strong and powerful enough to create the
cultivation methods for the Heavenly Stage for ordinary spirit maniptors.
And such elite primordial spirit maniptors were few and far between. That was why a cultivation
method for the Heavenly Stage was priceless and invaluable for ordinary spirit maniptors. Countless
people yearned to obtain such a cultivation method, but very few of them even had the chance to see
one before their death. It was like a daydream for most of them to get a cultivation method for the
Heavenly Stage. Even if ordinary spirit maniptors seeded in reaching the Heavenly Stage, they
could not upgrade further without a cultivation method for the Heavenly Stage. They would have no
way to improve further and most stayed at the preliminary grade of the Heavenly Stage.
Although Rocky could regain the Holy Dragon Bead''s power and the position as a royal spirit
maniptor after he reached the Heavenly Stage, he could not get the royal cultivation methods for the
Heavenly Stage because he was disowned. The royal cultivation methods that were passed down from
the Dragon Master n were only for the royal members.
Rocky had the problem of not having the means to further grow stronger without a cultivation method
for the Heavenly Stage. Even after he gained the Holy Dragon Bead''s power, achieving his n was
not be possible. But the book he found changed everything. Rocky had nothing to worry about now.
The book presented the ability that allowed Rocky to still upgrade his grade even after reaching the
Heavenly Stage.
Rocky had known how to use the Dragon me Pearl and witnessed its power. He believed that he
could summon more of the Dragon me Pearl''s power once he summoned the Spirit Possession.
The power of the mes that he possessed after he activated the Spirit Possession would definitely
improve the Dragon me Pearl''s powers.
"Although I was almost killed because of the Rainbow Glow Unicorn, I could not upgrade my cultivation
level and get the three treasures if not because of it," Rocky whispered to himself. He even thought that
the Rainbow Glow Unicorn led him into that situation on purpose to help him. In retrospect, he lost
nothing and gained a lot instead, so now he felt very grateful to the Rainbow Glow Unicorn.
Rocky hadn''t returned for three days, so the three Dark Heaven Insects suffered a lot from hunger. He
then shoveled heaps of soil to feed them and gave them a drop of the magical saliva as reparation.
The sun had set when hepleted his tasks.
After some thought, Rocky decided to go to Marin''s ce. He wanted to know what Marin nned to
do. Although she agreed to his request earlier, he was unsure whether she''d go through with it or not.
Campfires zed under a star-filled sky when Rocky arrived at Marin''s ce. It was the first time that
he hade to visit her room. He used to always meet her in her military tent, and this unfamiliar
location brought a slight unease to Rocky.
Even as themander of the northeast military camp, the ce where Marin lived was the same as
the other rooms where soldiers lived.
Rocky knocked on the door, and before long, a sweet voice called from inside. "Who is it?"
"It''s me!" Rocky answered briefly.
The ce grew ufortably silent all of a sudden as if no one was around.
"I will leave if you don''t open the door," Rocky shouted after an annoying silence. He thought that Marin
must have felt extremely distressed and regretted her agreement to Rocky''s request earlier.
''If she opens the door, then she will really mean it. She must have prepared a great show then!'' Rocky
thought to himself with an impish smile and wondered if Marin would ever open the door. Although he
wanted badly to see Marin''s belly dance, he believed that it was more likely that she would not open
the door.
