The Medallion -
Chapter 1562 Unbelievable
Rocky's real plan was to seize the commander of the army of the spiritual race and take him as a hostage. That way, they would have leverage and they could ensure a smooth escape from the Crescent Gorge.
Of course, it was not an easy task to just capture the commander of the opposing party right in front of the spiritual race's army. However, for someone like Rocky, who had already experienced every kind of challenge and tribulation, this was not something that he couldn't pull off.
Right after Rocky showed up, he instantly attracted the attention of the enemy commander, as well as the soldiers of the spiritual race who were putting the fire out.
"Hey! Who the hell are you?" The commander had a ferocious expression on his face as he glared at Rocky. He could not fathom where this guy got the guts to show up right in front of them. Soon enough, some of the soldiers managed to surround Rocky.
"Are you the commander of this army?" Rocky asked straightforwardly. There was no hint of fear or panic in his voice.
"So, what if I am?" the commander answered with a defiant sneer.
"Good. I am actually looking for you," Rocky said indifferently.
"You, despicable human! How dare you set our grain warehouse on fire? You even tried to let your comrades escape! You sure are pretty arrogant for someone that is about to die!" Since Rocky bravely appeared in front of them, the commander guessed that he should be the one who started the fire.
"So what? Your army ambushed our troops first. I don't want to hear someone like you call me despicable! You even set up a camp here in the Crescent Gorge and made trouble for my companions. Don't you dare make me the bad person here!" Rocky snorted coldly.
"Humph! I don't care what you say. Guards! Take that imbecile down!" the commander ordered firmly.
In an instant, over a hundred soldiers swarmed towards Rocky and were very eager to bring him down.
Seeing this, Rocky also made his move and released the Purple-flaming Phoenix from the Magic Spiritual Space. The moment the spiritual beast came out, it immediately shocked the soldiers. "Wait. Is that a spiritual beast?" one of them asked.
"Yes, it is a spiritual beast! He actually has one!" another exclaimed in surprise.
"But how? I thought it is almost impossible for a mere human spirit warrior to subdue a spiritual beast. And this one doesn't look ordinary either!"
All of a sudden, the soldiers of the spiritual race were thrown into a state of chaos. They quickly backed off and maintained their distance from Rocky and the Purple-flaming Phoenix.
Seeing that Rocky summoned a spiritual beast whose aura was actually comparable to that of a premium-stage spiritual beast, the commander was obviously infuriated.
"Go and play with them for a while," Rocky murmured to the Purple-flaming Phoenix as he let out a devious grin.
Heeding Rocky's order, the Purple-flaming Phoenix immediately spread its wings and directly rushed towards the soldiers of the spiritual race. It then opened its mouth and spurted a vicious purple flame column that easily swept across the entire area. In the blink of an eye, many soldiers of the spiritual race were burnt to a crisp and were vanquished.
"What are you doing? Kill the beast and that human!" The commander gathered all the spirit warriors and ordered them to go all out.
With this, more and more spirit warriors rushed out. However, their strength was only at the sixth or seventh grade of the Spirit Realm. Hence, even if they combined all of their powers, they were not able to resist the attacks of the Purple-flaming Phoenix.
At this point, those with Spiritual Infants were sent to chase Deputy Commander Ma and Eunice. Therefore, among the remaining ones, only the commander was able to keep up against the Purple-flaming Phoenix.
However, Rocky was approaching him.
The commander immediately perceived that Rocky's strength was also not to be underestimated. However, since he was at the premium stage of the Spiritual Infant, he was still confident that he could take on Rocky without a problem. After all, he was only inferior to warriors that were at the Emperor Realm.
As he was trying to launch a counterattack, the commander turned his head a little and clenched his fists. Then, he suddenly took a step forward, opened his mouth, and roared mightily. In the blink of an eye, a monstrous sound wave like that of a lion's roar, containing strong spiritual power, rushed towards Rocky. At the same time, the dust intensely rose as huge fissures appeared on the ground.
The commander's roar was extremely powerful that it could easily send shivers to anyone.
However, Rocky wasn't even fazed with this. Instead, he just calmly wielded his Mystical Dragon Sword and swiftly unleashed a violent sword force that instantly clashed with the intense sound wave. Upon collision, the sound wave was actually divided into two parts and just brushed past Rocky from his sides.
"Hmm. This guy also has a Spiritual Infant that's at the premium stage." Upon witnessing Rocky's move, the commander was able to gauge his strength.
"So, are you afraid now? Are we still going to continue this?" Rocky let out a mocking smile as he issued a challenge to the face of the commander.
The commander's face twitched in rage and the veins on his forehead almost popped out. As he fumed in anger, he suddenly rushed towards Rocky and threw his fist in an attempt to punch his abdomen. However, Rocky already saw through his attack and blocked it using his sword.
Clang!
The Mystical Dragon Sword collided with the fists of the commander.
But the moment their attacks clashed, Rocky felt a strong momentum that made him unable to stand still. As a result, he needed to retreat a few meters. However, before he could regain his balance, the commander rushed again, raising his hands like a bird's wings this time. Then, he was able to grab Rocky. The invisible spiritual power directly surged to his arms, using them to throw Rocky up into the air. Simultaneously, the commander leaped into the air and smashed his fists against Rocky, who was still in mid-air. The momentum of his punch was so massive, and the destructive force was astonishing. Seeing that the situation wasn't that favorable for him, Rocky immediately released the Magic Icy Armor to protect himself.
Boom!
The massive punch from the commander landed on Rocky's chest, which instantly made him numb. Fortunately, he was able to put the Magic Icy Armor just in time to protect him from the impact. Otherwise, that last attack might have broken a few of his ribs.
However, due to the strong impact, Rocky still crashed heavily on the ground, creating a shallow crater on it.
"Commander, that move is so awesome!" The soldiers of the spiritual race could not help but cheer loudly.
At the same time, their commander revealed a proud look, assuming that Rocky would have been injured badly after receiving his fierce attack.
It was known that the physique of the spiritual race was much stronger than the human race. Whether it was in terms of strength, speed, or even potential for cultivation, the spiritual race was always better. Therefore, if a warrior of the spiritual race and one of the human race were at the same level, the spiritual race's warrior would still be powerful than the human race's.
However, just when the commander thought that his battle with Rocky was already finished, he suddenly saw that Rocky's body disappeared on the ground. Seeing this, the commander instantly became wary. At the same time, he was stunned that someone like Rocky would be able to handle his full-blown attack. Then, in the blink of an eye, a figure suddenly climbed out from the ground. Streaks of sword light instantly intertwined into a net that enveloped the commander.
The commander's eyes instantly widened, caught off guard by Rocky's sneaky counterattack. He did not expect that Rocky was still able to fight back after being heavily injured.
At this moment, the commander was completely shrouded in Rocky's sword net.
Not giving up, the commander immediately crossed his arms and gathered all his strength. Then, he unleashed a monstrous power that formed a spiritual power barrier to negate the sword net.
Just as the commander thought that Rocky's surprise attack was about to fail, countless streaks of starlight suddenly bolted out and continuously condensed to hit him like meteors.
"Take that! Thousand-star Swordsmanship!" A familiar voice rang in the ears of the commander as he was about to be swallowed by the dazzling starlight.
In a flash, the armor of the commander shone brightly as the sword power hit it directly. Just a moment after, the silver armor disintegrated into pieces.
As the commander received a direct hit from Rocky's sword skill, he could not help but spit a mouthful of blood.
The next moment, the commander felt that Rocky's Mystical Dragon Sword was pressed against his neck.
The soldiers of the spiritual race, who had been cheering for their commander earlier, were suddenly rendered speechless. They were completely dumbfounded to see that their powerful commander would actually lose to a mere human spirit warrior.
Even the commander himself was flabbergasted and was in disbelief of what just happened.
