Chapter 886 Don''t Look Around


    Deeply unsettled, Alyssa quickly drew a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself. She couldn''t afford a


    distraction right now, not when she had found that everything had gone crazy ever since she''d met


    Rocky again. She was no longer the stone-cold princess from before. There was no way to maintain


    control in a situation like this one.


    "Aren''t you going to tell me your mental cultivation method first?" Rocky asked, looking at her straight


    into the eyes. His expression was deeply grave.


    "No, just... Go ahead and follow the cultivation method you''ve already got. I''ll assist you," Alyssa


    replied, somehow managing to get her wits back.


    With a nod, Rocky agreed and immediately closed his eyes. Almost instantly, the Fire spiritual power in


    his body began circting. He injected it straight into the Sea Blue Magic Jade cupped in his left hand.


    Now, he was connected to the jade and it began glowing in a brilliant blue light,ncing in all directions


    like the scattering sunlight through ocean waters.


    Alyssa watched as the blue light began to spread and quickly turned her palms over. The vine-like


    spiritual mark emzoned on her arm came to life and it began to squirm and crawl as though it were a


    living being. She then pressed her palms against Rocky''s chest, and he could feel the sensation of an


    incredible spiritual power flowing into his body to race with his own.


    But it wasn''t long into the process when Alyssa found a problem from within Rocky.


    ''Is that...a spiritual soul? Oh my god! He''s drawing the power of a spiritual soul hidden in his body! And


    there is some kind of tremendous evil power that has been sealed away down there! And it''s not just


    that... There seems to be the power of a primordial spirit maniptor also tucked away here. How is


    this even possible?! How is he able to hold onto three different incredible powers at the same time?


    Only the power from the primordial spirit maniptor makes sense here... But the other two... the other


    two shouldn''t be in human beings at all!'' She carefully schooled her face into a look ofplete


    indifference, as though she had found nothing whatsoever. Meditation had trained her well in


    maintainingposure. But the shock to her system nevertheless caused a strong wave of energy


    through Rocky, revealing the difort and agitation in her mind.


    Had it been anyone else doing this other than Alyssa, they might never have recognized those three


    powers so quickly. They might have, like Sabina, only sensed the existence of something mysterious


    smoldering from within. And like Sabina, they would''ve never been able to discern what it truly was.


    Within the spiritual soul container that held the evil power that had broken from the seal, a special


    existence had nested. This spiritual soul was power in and of itself, and it had developed for the sheer


    purpose of caging the evil power that lived within Rocky''s body. Rocky was unable to draw from the


    power of this soul itself. Unless someone was from the spiritual race themselves, no other spirit


    maniptors could have sensed it. Not even if they were powerful enough to reach the Divine Stage or


    well beyond that.


    But Alyssa was different. She had grown up within the spiritual race itself. And more than that, she


    herself held a small fragment of power that came from a spiritual soul. It nested within her the way


    Rocky''s rested within him. It was one of the biggest reasons that she had been so unusually powerful


    at her age. And it was also what drew her to find the spiritual soul nesting inside Rocky, even if it had


    been deliberately concealed from prying eyes.


    Alyssa had no idea where Rocky could''ve gotten this spiritual soul power. When her own spiritual


    power circted and weaved through his, she determined that this power''s ultimate purpose was to


    hold back that evil power within him. She therefore spected that someone in the spiritual race had


    from the evil power within him. The spiritual soul itself was the source of power for the spiritual race. It


    could only grow in strength as the days went by and if the person who held that soul diligently worked


    on strengthening it. Should that person''s spiritual soul be damaged, their manner of cultivation


    would weaken along with it. But as someone of the spiritual race was willing to use their own soul to


    protect Rocky, whoever it was must have found Rocky very important to them.


    But in spite of all that effort, the tremendous evil power that had been sealed within Rocky still gave


    Alyssa pause and a cause for concern. Judging by the aura emanating from the seal itself, she was


    certain that such a seal could''ve only been crafted through the use of a secret skill known only to the


    spiritual race. That smoldering evil power within Rocky gave off the sense that it was merely biding its


    time. As though it was waiting for the opportune moment to cause the most damage possible, in spite


    of the fact that all it could do now was lurk behind the seal. Alyssa couldn''t even imagine how powerful


    that evil power could possibly be. It was too powerful to have ever been generated by mere humans.


    So lost was Alyssa in what she''d found that she suddenly realized that her spiritual sense was being


    guided by an unknown force. It was almost simultaneous with the sensation of the spiritual soul''s power


    inside her flowing through towards Rocky.


    To her amazement, her spiritual sense then followed soon after, entering Rocky''s body. All she could


    see now wasplete pitch ckness. There was a weightless sensation of falling into an eternal pit,


    causing terror to rise in her throat.


    "What''s going on?" Alyssa gasped. Her spiritual sense was getting towed beyond her control, getting


    pulled into Rocky''s body as though it had a mind of its own. It felt like hurtling down from a great height,


    with aplete loss of control.


    Before she could truly begin to panic, a ze of light shone up in front of her. A brilliant figure, shining


    so intensely that he might have been burning, appeared like a guiding star, reaching out to her almost


    "Rocky? Is that you?" The light cleared before her eyes and she realized that it really was Rocky,


    enveloped in fire.


    "What are you doing in here, Alyssa?" Rocky''s shining, zing form asked. It looked like Alyssa wasn''t


    the only one stunned by the revtions. Rocky had found himself undergoing the same experience that


    she had. His spiritual sense was towed elsewhere into this vast darkness, as though he were driven to


    it by an unknown force beyond his control.

    "I...I don''t know! I don''t have the faintest clue of what''s going on! I was just about to ask you the same


    thing, and... Oh my god, just look at you!" Alyssa stammered in shock, unable to even look at him


    directly now, even as her lips formed a pout.


    "Hey, don''t me me for any of this. We''re in the same boat here," Rocky replied, the corner of his lips


    curled as he watched her.


    "Look, we''re both in a state formed only by our own senses. You know what I mean, right? This is what


    people call that moment when one''s spirit hase untethered from its body," Rocky exined simply.


    "Yes, I know very well what that is," Alyssa replied with a twist in her gut. He was lying, and she knew it.


    Still, the atmosphere was unbelievably strange and the air between them was an awkward one. As


    though to alleviate this embarrassment, a column of brilliant blue light came sting down from above,


    covering them both in illumination. Both Rocky and Alyssa gasped as they gazed up at its incredible


    radiance.
