Chapter 1855 How Terrifying


    "I see. That battle between the warriors and the ghostly demons is just an illusion. But it looks so real,


    and I could even feel their overwhelming power surging towards us!" Valeria eximed as she let out


    all of her pent-up emotions. Atst, she was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.


    "That''s right. It seems that what we see is something that happened back then. The battle between the


    ancestors of the Shura Race and the ghostly demons must have been very intense," Rocky said with a


    nod.


    Although the illusion still persisted, Rocky and Valeria were at least relieved to know that it would not


    affect them.


    As the illusion that showed the battle between the ghostly demons and the strong warriors continued,


    dust continuously rose from the ground, making it a bit hard to see.


    But then out of nowhere, the dark sky opened as if it was a mouth of a giant beast, producing a loud


    rumbling sound. Then, a golden light shed through the thick clouds and shrouded the entire area.


    Afterward, the giant ghostly demons suddenly let out piercing shrieks as if sensing something terrifying


    from the golden light. Eventually, a sword shadow descended from the sky and turned into a divine


    radiance. In the blink of an eye, it bolted towards two giant ghostly demons. The moment the divine


    radiance passed through them, the ghostly demons fell and crashed to the ground.


    The impact was so strong that the ground shook, and a cloud of dust rose into the sky.


    Upon seeing this, the other giant ghostly demons quickly dispersed in various directions. At the same


    time, their faces showed extreme fear as the sword shadow inserted to the ground.


    "Isn''t that sword very familiar? I think it''s the same one that you have been using!" Valeria remarked,


    recognizing the sword at a nce.


    "I think so too. Then, it means that the God-killing Sword was actually used by someone in this battle in


    the past." Even Rocky was surprised. He did not know that the God-killing Sword was so special that it


    was used to defeat the ghostly demons when the ancestors of the Shura Race tried to seal Phillip.


    Because of the appearance of the God-killing Sword, the giant ghostly demons did not dare to fight


    back, and they quickly escaped.


    Soon enough, another rumbling sound was heard that shook heaven and earth. The dark clouds


    gradually parted, and the phantoms also disappeared. At this point, everything calmed down.


    "I wonder how the illusion could show itself after so many years. Well, I''d like to consider myself lucky


    that I was able to witness a part of the epic battle between the ancestors of the Shura Race and the


    ghostly demons. That was a rare opportunity!" Rocky said excitedly.


    "What? I can''t believe that you can say that with a huge smile on your face. I was so thankful that it was


    just an illusion. If that was true, I''m afraid that we might have died here," Valeria pouted and


    now. She thought that she would not be able to forget it for the rest of her life.


    "All right. Let''s move on!" Immediately after, Rocky and Valeria rode on Rubygon''s back again to


    continue moving southwest.


    Along the way, they saw more illusions as if they were memories engraved in this ce. They were all


    scenes from the battle in the past, and it would be an understatement to say that they were


    astonishing. At the same time, the scenes were also painful to watch. Hundreds of warriors of the


    Shura Race died in this merciless war, and all their corpses were just buried under the yellow sand.


    As they were getting much closer to the Demon Sealing Pce, the phantoms they saw gradually


    decreased. However, at the same time, the ghostly demons that had not appeared for some time now


    began to be dense again. It was as if they were guarding the surrounding areas of the pce.


    Therefore, to avoid any unnecessary confrontation, Rocky and Valeria sneakily moved forward. They


    also noticed that the ghostly demons that were inhabiting the areas around the Demon Sealing Pce


    were far stronger than the ones they encountered before. Hence, it would be wiser if they could get


    past them without fighting. These ghostly demons must be at least at the premium stage of the Shura


    Realm and their number was overwhelming. Once the two of them were spotted, it would be very hard


    for them to escape this situation.


    Although they had Rubygon with them, thebined powers of the three would still be far from enough


    to take on the number of the ghostly demons here.


    While proceeding with extreme caution, they were able to reach the periphery of the Demon Sealing


    Pce after two days. At this point, they could clearly see that the tower-shaped pce was enveloped


    in ck fog.


    "We are almost there. Fortunately, it seems that no team is ahead of us," Rocky said reassuringly. At


    this rate, he estimated that they could reach the entrance of the Demon Sealing Pce in less than a


    day. Along the way, they tried to look for traces from other teams, but they did not find anything. Thus,


    they were sure that they were the fastest group to reach the destination.


    However, since they got close to the Demon Sealing Pce, the ck fog became much thicker. As


    they traveled for a few hours, they had difficulty moving forward because the fog blocked their vision.


    They could not see properly if there were ghostly demons in behind the fog, so they could not move


    rashly.


    "Rubygon, lead the way for us!" This was the only way that Rocky could think of. They needed to be


    very cautious, but they also have to get to the pce as soon as possible. Therefore, they went down


    Rubygon''s back and made it lead the way. This way, if something suddenly appeared, Rubygon could


    protect the two of them immediately.


    With a blushing face, Valeria leaned closer to Rocky. She was kind of frightened, so she wanted to feel


    some sense of security.


    Rocky understood what she was feeling, so he put his arm around Valeria''s waist and enveloped her


    with his spiritual power for added protection.


    As the ck fog continued to get thicker, the atmosphere around them also started to be


    somewhat strange.


    They could not see anything, but they could feel that countless pairs of eyes were actually staring at


    them from within the fog. At this point, they could not tell the direction that they were heading, nor if


    something dangerous was about to wee them. They were like blind people who were still eager to


    move forward despite the imminent dangers.


    Eventually, the two of them suddenly heard the sound of something stirring in the air. Then, ck


    shadows that looked like bats suddenly rushed out from the fog and rushed towards them at incredible


    speed.


    Upon seeing them up close, Rocky and Valeria noticed that their appearance was horrible and


    daunting. None of them had a face, and their entire head was like a big mouth with sharp fangs. Even


    with the size of these ghostly demons, it would be pretty dangerous if they were caught in their huge


    mouths.


    "Damn it! There are too many of them!" Although they were rtively small, dozens of bat-shaped


    ghostly demons surrounded them and made their life difficult. If nothing was done, they could be in


    grave danger.


    "Rubygon, run forth and disperse them!" Rocky ordered at once.


    Hearing this, Rubygon let out a fearsome roar. Its momentum shot out and a violent aura surged out of


    its body. Then, it rushed towards the bat-shaped ghostly demons as if it was a ferocious predator


    hunting for its prey.


    Due to the domineering aura of the diabolical beast, the ghostly demons were immediately scattered.


    However, not long after, they also came back. Some of them encircled Rubygon, while the others


    attacked Rocky and Valeria.


    Deeming that they were in an unfavorable position, Rocky instantly released his Spiritual Domain to


    protect him and Valeria. At the same time, he tried to get near Rubygon again.


    However, the ghostly demons became even more vicious and attacked Rocky''s Spiritual Domain.


    Fortunately, it was strong enough that the ghostly demons were instantly devoured by the power of the


    Spiritual Domain.

    But that was not the end of it. More bat-shaped ghostly demons appeared and kept attacking Rocky''s


    Spiritual Domain. Under the intense barrage of attacks, the Spiritual Domain eventually became


    unstable.


    "If this continues, I won''t be able to maintain my Spiritual Domain!" Rocky murmured, obviously


    frustrated at their situation. Although his spiritual power should be strong enough to support the


    Spiritual Domain, being inside the Ghostly Demon Land affected the flow of his spiritual power. The


    more he released it, the cirction of spiritual power in his body was weakened. Hence, if the attacks


    of the ghostly demons went on, his spiritual power would be fully consumed.


    He was in a predicament since he also needed to protect Valeria. He could not afford to waste any


    spiritual power because they were yet to enter the real pce.


    "Odin, do what you have to do! I can protect myself. Trust me!" Seeing that Rocky had been having


    difficulties because he was protecting her, Valeria could not help but feel guilty. Therefore, in order to


    deal with the persistent bat-shaped ghostly demons, she offered to defend herself while Rocky took


    care of their enemies.
