Chapter 1938 Provocation
"Alex, you have to realize that this ce is no joke. Although you have be a Spiritual Emperor at
the peak state and obtained the divine treasure, you are still not strong enough to go against that evil
spirit. There''s no need for you take this risk with us. Tripp and I have our mission toplete. With
your current strength, you should be able to lead the Wankong n and make it rise again," Rocky
said with a firm and serious look on his face.
"That''s not fair! Without the two of you, I wouldn''t be able to attain my current strength. You are my
benefactors. Therefore, before I leave the Ethereal Valley and part ways with you two, I will definitely
do my best to help you. You don''t have to worry about me. I am not the kind of person who''s afraid of
death," Alex replied stubbornly. It seems that she was not ready to let this matter go.
"Fine. We''ll try things out. But promise me that if we can''t deal with the evil spirit, you will leave first,"
Rocky said with a sigh. From the short time that they had been together, he got to know what kind of
person Alex was. If she had already made up her mind, it would be almost impossible to dissuade her.
Furthermore, the Ice Wand was in her hands, so she was the only one who could open the door of the
crystal pce. Hence, Rocky wouldn''t have much of a choice.
"All right." Alex nodded, satisfied with Rocky''spromise.
After that, the three of them wasted no time and quickly searched for the aura of the evil spirit. Soon
enough, they were back deep into the crystal pce again.
Along the way, they saw more dead bodies of the spirit warriors one after another.

"This is bad. It won''t take too long before almost all the spirit warriors in the crystal pce get killed,"
Rocky murmured and shook his head. He knew that the more strong spirit warriors died, the worse the
situation would be for the entire spiritual race.
Then, after searching in the crystal pce for more than two hours, the three of them finally found a
hidden hall situated at the end of the crystal pce.
However, they didn''t dare to act rashly. They stayed outside the hall first, hid their auras, and observed
from their current position.
At the same time, on the other side of the pool in the hall, Ruth of the Lingji n and the Spiritual
Emperors of other ns were being trapped by a strong force that floated in the air. Moreover,
something was constantly absorbing the power from their bodies, making them weaker every passing
second.
In the pool, the purple shadow sat with its legs crossed on the surface of the water, perfectly still, and
was emitting a strong demonic aura. Just as Rocky guessed, it was a devil spirit and it was a powerful
member of the demonic race.
"It is a devil spirit. A very powerful one. Judging from its malevolent aura, it is definitely not just an
ordinary devil spirit!" Rocky had been alone with Phillip''s soul in the Heavenly Demon Tower before, so
he was quite sure when it came to distinguishing the strength of a member of the demonic race.
Although the aura of the purple devil spirit in front of him was not as strong as that of Phillip, it was just
about a level lower than Phillip''s. Therefore, it was at least a medium-stage devil.
"Yes, I can feel it! This devil spirit seems to be exceedingly powerful!" Now that Alex had be a
Spiritual Emperor at the peak stage, she was now able to feel the strength of powerful beings such as
the purple devil spirit.
"From what I can see, I''m afraid that even with the three of us working together, we won''t manage to
hurt it at all," Vivian said with an obvious frown. Even if the devil spirit hadn''t technically reached the
God Realm yet, its strength was already close to breaking through to the God Realm. Thus, even if she
and Rocky released their real strength, they would also just be close to the God Realm. At present,
they could not count on Alex''s fighting power, and she might even be a liability in battle. In addition, the
opponent was a devil spirit without a real body. Once they fought head-on, their chance of winning was
slim to none.
"Then, I don''t think it would be wise to risk our lives in a losing battle." Even Rocky had to admit that
they had no chance of winning against the purple devil spirit.
"But what about the Spiritual Emperors? Are you saying that we''ll just abandon them?" Looking at Ruth
and the Spiritual Emperors who were trapped inside, Alex couldn''t help but feel sorry for them.
"Most of their power has been absorbed anyway. Even if we managed to save them, I''m afraid that they
would be disabled for the rest of their lives. Besides, you felt the power of the devil spirit, and you know
that saving all of those people is beyond our abilities," Vivian uttered straightforwardly.
"But they are still members of the spiritual race! I can''t just sit by and do nothing while they are being
killed in front of me!" As the young master of one of the five major ns, Alex had been raised and
trained as the heir since childhood. Naturally, she had a deep sense of responsibility. Even if her n
had been in apetition with the other four ns, all of them were still from a single race. If all of
these Spiritual Emperors died here, it would be a huge blow for the entire spiritual race.
"I''m sure you are aware that if they were in our position, they would also abandon us," Rocky replied
without mincing his words. "If we do what you are asking, it''s as if we''ll just dive into our deaths. This is
an overwhelming odd with an almost nonexistent chance of oveing."
"I know. But I can''t just give up without even trying. I also fully understand that my strength alone is not
enough. You are not required to obey my whims, but can you help me? I will repay you double in the
future!" Alex could only plead at this point.
"I don''t really know. What about you, Tripp? What do you think?" Rocky shook his head with a bitter
smile and turned to Vivian.
''If this devil spirit escapes from the Ethereal Valley, it will be a disaster that could also affect the Shura
Race. After all, the previous demonic race member has already caused so much chaos in the Ghostly
Demon Land.'' Vivian crossed her arms on her chest and thought deeply for a while. Ideally, by looking
at the overall situation, they really had to find a way to kill this devil spirit or seal it again before it made
more trouble.
"Well, if both of you think that it is best to resolve this right now, then we can only take the risk and do
our best." Rocky also made up his mind, knowing that if they let the devil spirit roam free, it would bring
endless troubles to every race. Hence, they should do what they could to bring it to an end before more
tragedies rose.
"All right then. Just like before, I''m going to act as a decoy and attract the attention of that devil spirit. At
the same time, you guys wait for the chance to save those Spiritual Emperors," Rocky instructed.
"Be very careful!" Alex reminded in a serious tone. Of course, she was very worried for Rocky.
In the blink of an eye, Rocky''s aura surged out and he quickly rushed towards the pool from where they
were hiding.
Immediately, the purple devil spirit, who was busy absorbing the power of the Spiritual Emperors,
stopped from what it was doing, rmed at the sudden appearance of Rocky. It then stared at Rocky
with furious eyes.
"How dare you disturb me, imbecile? Kneel down!" the purple devil spirit roared, unleashing a strong
pressure that gushed out towards Rocky.
The next moment, Rocky felt a force as heavy as a boulder rushing directly towards him. His knees
became weak and he almost stumbled down to the floor. However, with his fast reflexes, he released
the holy power of King Corey to resist the pressure. In an instant, he was able to regain his bnce,
completely warding off the overwhelming pressure from the devil spirit.
"What the hell? Your strength is a little strange. It seems that a part of ites from the demonic race,
but there''s also something else in there..." It seemed that the purple devil spirit easily sensed the
demonic spiritual power that was hidden in Rocky''s body.
It was known that the Shura Race had a dark history. They turned to worship the devils and practiced
various evil skills which ultimately led to the fall of the Shura Race''s royal family. Since then, the Shura
Race had fallen into a devilish road, and it had been difficult to return from it.
Although the divine race had won the warter, it was still not enough to change the fate of the Shura
Race. They could only let the Shura Race continue to cultivate their devilish skills, resulting to their
further decline.
Since King Corey was a direct descendant of the Shura Race''s royal family, he happened to have gone
through the dark period of the Shura Race. He had inherited the power of the devils from an early age
and also practiced different devilish skills. Therefore, even after inheriting a part of Deacon''s power
later on, he still possessed his devilish skills. As a result, the holy power of Corey was actually half
divine and half devilish.
Now, Rocky, who had inherited that same power, also had a half divine and half devilish nature in his
body. That was why the purple devil spirit felt that Rocky''s power was indeed strange.
"Aren''t you talking too much? How about getting straight to the point and fight with me? Let me see the
true power of the demonic race which you''re proud of!" Rocky tantly provoked the devil spirit in order
for the two girls to find a chance to save the Spiritual Emperors.
