Chapter 1257 The Mysterious Woman


    The giant ice bird hesitated for a second when it heard the sweet voice, hovering in the air uncertainly.


    When it finally started moving, it turned away from Rocky as if it forgot that he existed, did a quick one-


    eighty-degree turn, and then flew deeper into the ice forest. Its deafening screech could still be heard,


    even as it disappeared from sight.


    Rocky breathed a sigh of relief, and felt the restraints on his body loosen up. Still, he didn''t let his guard


    down. He determined that the colossal ice bird was the source of the screams outside, which made a


    shiver crawl through his spine. Its aura was even stronger than that of the strongest ancient demonic


    beast!


    Therefore, at that moment, Rocky was also amazed and curious. He could not help but wonder where


    that enormous ice bird came from and why it lived in this strange ce.


    Soon, however, Rocky heard the sweet voice that had stopped the ice bird from attacking him. As his


    head swiveled towards the direction of the voice, he saw a beautiful, mysterious woman standing in an


    ice pavilion beside the ice forest. She looked weak and fragile like a thin reed that could easily be


    blown away by the wind.


    Seeing this, Rocky couldn''t help bute closer, as he was afraid that the woman needed help. He


    arrived at the ice pavilion and found that, on a closer look, the mysterious woman looked like an angel


    that had just fallen to the mortal world, with an extraordinary aura all over her body. Her beautiful face


    was clear and pale, bare of any makeup. It was like her skin had been condensed from the purest


    water. Her every movement spoke of a graceful charm, irresistible and ready to capture anyone''s


    attention.


    However, what shocked Rocky most was not the woman''s beauty. As he studied her face, he could


    swear that she looked so familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere else.


    Soon, Rocky remembered the twelve statues he had seen in the Heavenly God Temple. The woman in


    front of him looked exactly like one of the twelve statues, so he began to suspect that she was the real


    body of one of them.


    The Heavenly God Temple had already existed since the beginning of the spiritual race. If the woman


    were the real body of one of those statues, then that meant she had been alive for a long time already.


    But her face didn''t look that old. It was obvious that any exnation behind this had already surpassed


    thew of heaven and earth!

    Of course, Rocky had a lot of reservations. First of all, why was this woman here? Besides, it seemed


    that she had been here for a long time. Moreover, what was this woman''s identity, and what kind of


    rtionship did she have with the other eleven statues? As Rockyid eyes on the mysterious woman,


    a door full of secrets seemed to have appeared in front of him.


    Before Rocky could figure out what was going on, the woman suddenly looked up at him, her eyes


    roving all over his body. Suddenly, she started trembling like a leaf, and rushed up to him with tears


    streaming down her face. "You''re here! You''re finally here. I''ve been waiting for you for a long time. I


    thought you had forgotten our appointment," she cried out.


    Rocky was stunned by her words and intimate actions. It was as if she knew him, but he didn''t


    recognize her at all. He couldn''t figure out what was going on. Objectively, the woman''s actions


    seemed genuine. It seemed like she truly knew Rocky, and it was as if she had seen her beloved whom


    she hadn''t seen for a long time.


    ''What the hell is going on?'' Rocky was doubly confused, and everything that was happening was utterly


    beyond his expectation and imagination.


    "Uhm... Excuse me. I''m sorry, but do we know each other?" Rocky tentatively asked as he pushed the


    mysterious woman away.


    "Don''t you recognize me?" The woman stopped crying and looked at Rocky strangely.


    He remained silent, unsure what he should say to the woman that would not upset her more. Rocky


    had never seen this woman in his life. But earlier, when they shared that embrace, it felt right. It felt like


    something familiar, something safe.


    "Belial, don''t you recognize me? Why? You can''t forget me!" The mysterious woman fervently shook


    her head as if she could make him remember by doing so. Suddenly, apelling aura burst out from


    her body, like a violent wind and a massive wave, which mmed against Rocky like a concrete wall.


    Rocky felt his breath stop, and his face changed dramatically. It felt like he was drowning, as the ocean


    of her power overwhelmed him. It was like a strong wind, blowing him to the edge of a cliff when he


    was only one step away from death.


    ''What a terrifying woman!'' Rocky thought to himself. Obviously, this woman was more powerful than


    the average person. Even Ma, who had reached the peak of a ninth-grade of the spiritual race


    power, did not give him such a terrifying sense of fear.


    Although Rocky was not sure who the woman was, he was confident that she was beyond the


    existence of the spiritual race.


    A momentter, the aura released by the woman suddenly disappeared. She stared at Rocky as if she


    had seen through something and said, "You are not him, but you have his strength and aura on your


    body, and you look exactly like him..."


    "Who do you mean by saying ''you''?" Rocky asked.


    "He is the embodiment king of evil!" the woman answered eagerly. She sounded flush with infatuation,


    and her eyes turned ssy as she talked about the man. She seemed lost in their memories.


    "Wait..." Rocky suddenly connected the dots in his mind. "Is he Divine King Belial?" As soon as this


    thought urred to Rocky, he immediately got in touch with Divine King Belial. He was astonished that


    the woman in front of him seemed to be connected to the evil king, and it appeared that she had been


    waiting for him all this time as if she didn''t know that the king had long disappeared from the world.


    However, Rocky abruptly realized a more shocking problem. This woman just said that he looked


    exactly like Divine King Belial, and she was one of the twelve human statues. If his spections were


    urate, then the one among the twelve human statues he had seen in the Heavenly God Temple who


    looked exactly like him would be Divine King Belial.


    So Divine King Belial was also one of the twelve statues.


    "Why do you possess the power of Belial? Did he send you here for me? But why didn''t hee here


    himself?" The mysterious woman peppered him with so many questions like a dissatisfied housewife


    that Rocky didn''t know which to answer first.


    "I do have the power of Divine King Belial, but he didn''t send me to find you," Rocky exined.


    "Where is he? He told me that he woulde here to keep mepany after everything was settled?


    Did he go back on his word?" The woman''s face darkened, and Rocky knew he had to pull himself


    together, or the situation could be worse. He didn''t want to fight this woman!


    "If you want to know where he is, I need you to answer some of my questions first," Rocky suggested


    with a frown.


    The woman seemed eager to know the whereabouts of Divine King Belial, so she answered without


    hesitation, "What do you want to know?"


    "How did all the beings buried in the Myriad Spirit Tomb die? And who are the twelve statues in the


    Heavenly God Temple? Besides you and Divine King Belial, who are the ten other figures?" Rocky


    asked straightforwardly.
