Chapter 1569 Put Down Your Weapons


    But it was toote. A leopard-shaped spiritual beast rushed out of the grass directly towards a team


    member.


    He was so frightened that his legs weakened and began to tremble for he didn’t know how to escape.


    Just as the spiritual beast was about to bite him, a figure suddenly appeared wielding a military knife


    which he used to block the beast’s razor-sharp teeth.


    It was none other than Kye.


    "Idiot! What are you waiting for? Run now!" Kye cursed loudly.


    The team member quickly fled from the beast upon hearing hismand.


    As Kye wielded his knife fiercely, the spiritual beast swiftly retreated into the grass and disappeared.


    Not long after, more spiritual beasts rushed out and attacked Rocky’s team of spiritual warriors.

    "It appears we still need to find a way out of here," Rocky noted with a serious look. Realizing it wasn’t


    safe to stay, he immediately summoned the Purple-ming Phoenix.


    Kye and his team were shocked when Rocky called upon his spiritual beast with the strength of a


    Spiritual Infant.


    Once the Purple-ming Phoenix appeared, it shot out a me that burned all the grass within a


    hundred meters to ashes. The spiritual beasts that hid among the grass were then exposed.


    "Charge!" Rocky screamed intensely. He then led his team to engage in a fierce battle with the spiritual


    beasts.


    Before long, some of the beasts were killed while others fled.


    "Lead the way, Purple-ming Phoenix!" Rockymanded.


    The Purple-ming Phoenix flew in a straight line and burned all the grass in its path to ashes.


    Soon, the phoenix created a wide road for Rocky and his team to walk on.


    He continued to lead them on a quest for a safe route.


    Half a dayter, Rocky discovered one and led them towards it.


    Deputy Commander Lin led the patrol team into the forest ording to the route Rocky provided and


    began the search.


    The forest was so vast that a day’s search wasn’t enough. Therefore, they set up camp on the spot and


    set up a tripwire to warn them of any iing sneak attacks by the spiritual beasts.


    "Let’s continue the search for another day. If we''re certain that there''s no trace of the spiritual race''s


    troops, we can then return to the Tiger Whisker Pass," Deputy Commander Lin informed Rocky.


    Truthfully, he didn''t want to stay in such a dangerous area for too long.


    "I agree." Of course, Rocky had no objections.


    And the night passed without any danger.


    The patrol team continued to go into and search deeper within the primeval forest. When they found no


    trace of the spiritual race''s troops on the third day of their search, Deputy Commander Lin was ready to


    lead the team back. But not long after, they identally stumbled upon an entrance to a valley where


    they discovered a statue that was half-human and half-beast.


    "Deputy Commander Lin, have you been to this valley before?" Rocky asked the deputymander


    out of curiosity.


    "No, I''ve never been to this forest before." The deputymander shook his head.


    "Shall we get into the valley and search it?" Rocky suggested. Mysterious ces always piqued his


    curiosity.


    "Well..." Deputy Commander Lin hesitated. In fact, he didn’t want to enter.


    "Then let me lead the spirit warriors on a search!" Rocky proposed once he saw through the


    commander''s mind.


    "Okay," Deputy Commander Lin agreed reluctantly.


    After that, Rocky led the spirit warriors to the valley’s entrance while the deputymander and the


    others waited for them at the entrance.


    Rocky and his team were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them. It was a relic of ancient


    buildings that were once in the valley. It seemed that either the human race or the spiritual race had


    lived here before. Most of the relic looked intact, with many of the pce buildings still recognizable.


    "What the hell is this ce?" Kye asked Rocky who stood beside him.


    "A civilization must''ve lived here before," Rocky replied in amazement.


    "Captain! Look at this stone tablet!" one of the spirit warriors eximed once he discovered something.


    Rocky rushed over. The spirit warrior pointed towards a huge tablet split in two. Its upper hand was


    ced t on the ground while the lower half remained erect.


    He walked towards it quickly and carefully studied the words on the stone tablet. He was stunned to


    find that the words were extremely simr to thenguage of the Star Divine Race.


    ''Did the Star Divine Race used to live here? But how could the Star Divine Race civilization have


    reached the Supreme Ether Land?'' Rocky thought to himself, stunned.


    ''Did some powerful Star Divine Race warriors move to the Supreme Ether Land a long time ago? But


    how did they even enter thend in the first ce?'' Rocky couldn’t help but continue to ask questions


    in his head.


    "Can you understand the inscriptions, Captain Basil?" Kye rushed up and questioned him.


    "Of course not." Rocky shook his head. He didn’t want the others to know what he discovered.


    "Nothing special here. Let’s go back," Kye suggested with indifference. Seeing that it was just either


    human remains or the spiritual race civilization''s remains, he gave it no further thought.


    "Let''s go." Although Rocky was still quite curious about the contents of the stone tablet, he couldn’t


    reveal that he understood its inscriptions. Thus, he ordered all of them to leave.


    Just as they were about to depart from the valley, they suddenly felt a rumble. It sounded like galloping


    horses. It felt as though an army was approaching the valley.


    Rocky and the others had a horrible feeling in their gut. They were shocked by what they saw once


    they rushed out of the valley.


    An army of spiritual beasts was led by a single spiritual beast which had reached the Emperor Realm.


    They surrounded Deputy Commander Lin and the patrol team.


    "I have a bad feeling about this," Rockymented, his voice devoid of emotion.


    "Spiritual King Basil! You''ve arrived just in time. What should we do now? Are we going to break out the


    encirclement?" Deputy Commander Lin was slightly flustered as well. Although he bravely fought


    hundreds of times on the battlefield, he had never gone up against such an orderly army of spiritual


    beasts before.


    "Calm down!" Rocky immediately stopped Deputy Commander Lin from breaking out of the


    encirclement. This army they faced was clearly not formed at the spur of the moment and had possibly


    upied this area for a long time. The spiritual beasts only appeared once Rocky and his team broke


    into the valley. They must’ve seen them as intruders.


    However, Rocky still didn''t understand why the army guarded the ancient civilization ruins. It was


    inconceivable!


    "Deputy Commander Lin, order the troops toy down their weapons and stand down," Rocky told the


    deputymander immediately.


    "What? Put down our weapons? But why?" Deputy Commander Lin looked at Rocky in confusion. He


    couldn’t understand why Rocky would make such a request.


    "Just listen to me," Rocky pleaded in a serious tone.


    Realizing he was serious, Deputy Commander Lin momentarily hesitated before he ordered his troops.


    "Put down your weapons!"


    The soldiers and spirit warriors were just as dismayed and flustered. But they knew better than to


    disobey the deputymander''s order. They allid their weapons aside.
