Chapter 663 Marching Towards The Enemy Line


    Rocky discovered something new from the brain surgery he performed on the wild spirit-manipted


    beasts in the Spiritual Fairnd. As it turned out, the brains of spirit-manipted beasts were just like


    would neither work nor update its software. Simr things would happen to spirit-manipted beasts''


    brains if their cerebral cortices were damaged.


    Because of that, damages to a spirit-manipted beast''s brain should be prevented by not stimting


    its cerebral cortex. But not stimting its cerebral cortex also meant that the wild spirit-manipted


    beast could not be deprived of its self-consciousness. The only way Rocky coulde up with to solve


    this dilemma was to block the cerebral cortices. Blocking some programs in aputer would disable


    some functions in the saidputer, but theputer itself could still ept instructions given to it.


    Likewise, blocking a beast''s cerebral cortex would still allow the beast''s brain to read the instruction,


    but the cerebral cortex would be incapable of following it. This method would allow the beast''s brain to


    function normally and cause its cerebral cortex to lose its function at the same time.


    This kind of theory had undoubtedly gone out of the scope of science and technology. In other words, it


    was something that could not be resolved only with science and technology—it would not be easy to


    put such theory into action.


    But this was not a problem for Rocky. He had alreadye up with a solution. He wanted to put


    something he had learned into use. It was a kind of masterstroke unrivaled in this era—the Mysterious


    Beast Transformation Skill.


    As everyone knew, the state of a spirit-manipted beast''s spiritual source was closely rted to the


    condition of its whole body, and the spiritual source also controlled the beast''s whole body—including


    its brain—through its spiritual meridians. The Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill was a miraculous


    skill that would allow one to go inside the body of a spirit-manipted beast and ess its spiritual


    source. What Rocky wanted to do was to use the skill to go inside the brain of the spirit-manipted


    beast, find the spiritual meridian that controlled the cerebral cortex, and disable it, consequently


    blocking the cerebral cortex''s function. What would not change was that the cerebral cortex would still


    be under the control of the brain. It would just lose control of the spiritual source and could no longer


    follow the instructions given by the brain.


    However, everything was always easier said than done. Rocky was but an amateur regarding the


    Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill. For him, to do such a detailed and precise operation was even


    moreplicated than connecting through spiritual power. But giving up was never an option for


    Rocky. The more difficult the challenge was, the more persistent he would be.


    In order to find the location of the targeted spiritual meridian, he had to first build a spiritual power


    bridge. It would not be easy for there were tens of thousands of spiritual meridians inside a spirit-


    manipted beast. Experienced as Rocky was, he naturally had his own way. He would stimte the


    cerebral cortex to cause some vibrations. Once the cerebral cortex was stimted, the meridian that


    vibrated was the spiritual meridian he targeted. Luckily, it worked—he managed to find the spiritual


    meridian that controlled the cerebral cortex.


    The next step after finding the spiritual meridian he targeted was to cut it off. But considering that some


    mutations urred thest time Rocky made a spiritual power connection, what would happen this


    time if he cut off a spiritual meridian remained unpredictable. Therefore, Rocky had to be extremely


    careful when he entered the beast''s brain. He had to slowly break down the connection between the


    spiritual meridian and the cerebral cortex using his evil spiritual power.


    Right at the moment the spiritual meridian got separated from the cortex, the situation suddenly


    became vtile. Soon, the spiritual meridian shook and twisted randomly just like a writhing snake, and


    spiritual power constantly leaked out if it. The spirit-manipted beast also began to show rejection


    towards Rocky''s spiritual sense.


    If Rocky''s spiritual sense was thoroughly ejected from its body, the experiment would be a total failure.


    Moreover, he would also be at a high risk of being devoured by that spiritual power. That being the


    case, his top priority now was toe up with a solution immediately.


    Just as the situation got more and more urgent, Rocky suddenly had an epiphany. He tried to fuse the


    spiritual meridian he just cut off with other spiritual meridians, then used his spiritual power to patch


    them up. After a series of treatments, that spiritual meridian fusedpletely with other spiritual


    meridians in the brain, and the situation finally started to stabilize.


    It was only then did Rocky put his guard down ande out of the wild spirit-manipted beast''s


    brain.


    This wild spirit-manipted beast—or Experiment No.1 as Rocky called it—seemed to be in stable


    condition after the spiritual meridian-cutting surgery, so Rocky took it out of theboratory and locked it


    up in istion as he wanted to observe it for a few days.


    Once he finished everything, Rocky left the Magic Spiritual Space, sent the four beasts back into the


    Magic Spiritual Space, and went back to the Crimson Dragon Army''s base. The Crimson Dragon Army


    was about to reach the left wing of the Timber Deity Empire''s defensive line and fight against the


    Roaring me Empire''s army of fifty thousand forces. As the Commander in Chief, Rocky naturally


    ought to be there in the battle and lead them.


    When the sky darkened, the Crimson Dragon Army, which had been lying in wait, started to continue


    their march towards the left wing of the Timber Deity Empire''s defensive line.


    After walking for one whole day and one whole night, the Crimson Dragon Army finally arrived at the


    perimeter of the left wing of the Timber Deity Empire''s defensive line. They pitched camps five miles


    away from the defensive line, got themselves settled and prepared for the oing bloody battle.


    On the other side, the Roaring me Empire had ced fifty thousand forces on the left wing of the


    Timber Deity Empire''s defensive line to build a stronghold and wait for the battle.


    Rocky had received a tip that total changes had been made in the defensive line of the Timber Deity


    Empire. After the Roaring me Empire sent fifty thousand forces to support the Timber Deity Empire,


    the Timber Deity Empire only left ten thousand men in the right wing of their defensive line. The middle


    part of the defensive line had also been pushed towards the border of the Misty in, and the defense


    there had also been tightened. In other words, the forty thousand forces from the Magic Dragon Army


    heading towards the right wing would only have to deal with ten thousand men of the Timber Deity


    Empire. It seemed, winning on the right wing would be as easy as blowing off dust.


    By contrast, the fifty thousand forces of the Roaring me Empire standing before them here on the


    left wing were just like the Alps. Rocky was under tremendous pressure. After all, he had to win a battle


    against fifty thousand soldiers with less than thirty thousand men. It was quite like striking a rock with


    an egg.


    Nevertheless, Rocky had expected all of these.


    "Head Allen, how''s the investigation about the Roaring me Empire''s army going?" Rocky, who was


    poring over a topographic map of the area, asked when he saw Allen walk into themander-in-


    chief''s tent.


    "Commander in Chief, Ie to report something. The Elite Regiment''s scout we sent to the Roaring


    me Empire''s army base just returned with detailed information," Allen answered with a slight smile.


    "And?" Rocky raised his head and looked at Allen.


    "This time, the person acting as Commander in Chief for the Roaring me Empire''s army is some


    kind of big shot. People called him Blood Lord Leo, and he''s reached the fifth grade of the Supernal


    Stage already. Rumor has it that even the devil will take a detour when they see him. He''s just been


    conferred as Duke of Loyalty and Valor, and he''s even been granted a military right to lead an army of


    one hundred thousand men by the emperor of the Roaring me Empire," said Allen.


    "Blood Lord Leo? The name sounds creepy," Rocky said mockingly.


    "Blood Lord Leo is infamous for his cold-bloodedness. He can kill without even batting an eyelid. He''s

    wicked, merciless, and cruel. However, he''s indeed apetent and skilled army leader. When I was


    in the Roaring me Empire, I often heard about him too. It is said that Blood Lord Leo never lost even


    once in the wars against other countries during these past few years—he''s not one to be looked down


    upon," Allen continued to exin.


    "Is that so? It seems… the battle against the Roaring me Empire''s army will be a very fierce one,"


    Rocky said with a dry tone. And yet, there was nothing on his expression but utmost self-confidence. It


    was as if the fifty thousand men of the Roaring me Empire were not up too much in his eyes.
