Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1181 The Legendary Guardian Beasts

While Rocky was raising the spirit-manipulated beasts that could produce treasures, he still tried toreproduce them as much as he could. These types of spirit-manipulated beasts were rare, so hewanted to produce and raise various kinds of them. However, it was not easy to reproduce a largenumber of these beasts. If one wanted to have a high success rate, he needed to replace a veryconsistent gene alignment.

Fortunately, Rocky didn't need to worry so much about the resources because the Timber DeityEmpire and the Holy Dragon Empire had established lots of beast hospitals in different cities andeven in other countries. The success and the benefits that could be acquired from these beasthospitals were overwhelming. Some countries had started to wonder who the originator of this planwas. A lot of beast hospitals were constructed in just a few years.

The mastermind behind this brilliant plan was Rocky, the famous Prince Crimson of the Wild SpiritLand, though he didn't really want to take much credit from it.

For him, he didn't care much about fame and fortune. His vision had always focused on thedevelopment of the gene technology and the advancement of his researches.

A few months ago, he used the genes of Marcia's Holy-blood Dragon King and his own Dark MagicInsect to cross-breed a few Nigel Dragon Insects through asexual reproduction. The result was morethan gratifying because they were growing up healthily. Rocky was looking forward to seeing thekinds of treasures that these Nigel Dragon Insects would produce after they grew up.

Furthermore, huge progress had been made in the genetic modification of the four legions’ spirit-manipulated beasts. After taking the newly developed genetic medicine, the rejection and deathrate exhibited by the spirit-manipulated beats was less than five percent. This was an astonishingfeat, meaning that the development had a high success rate, and its effect could be readilyobserved soon after. However, Rocky's target was to bring down the rejection and death rate by onepercent. He knew that even though the progress was great, there was still a lot of room forimprovement. In terms of science, research, and development, Rocky was a perfectionist who didn'twant to settle for less.

Two months ago, the four legions’ spirit-manipulated beasts that had undergone the geneticmodification process were sent into battle. Upon observation, they all exhibited surprisingly goodresults. Their speed and strength increased dramatically, and they could use their capabilities totheir fullest potential. Those beasts that were especially used in combat were invincible. In the faceof these superior spirit-manipulated beasts, the army of the other countries trembled in fear.

As the spirit-manipulated beasts became more powerful, the casualties in battles were also greatlyreduced. Even if there was a lack of soldiers in the field, the overall combat prowess of the army wasstill solidified.

Obviously, all of the other countries noticed that the sudden increase in the abilities of the fourlegions® spirit-manipulated beasts was completely extraordinary, raising an urgent concern.However, the genetic modification process was carried out in secret, and thus, no one outside theHoly Dragon Empire knew that the changes exhibited by the beasts were due to geneticenhancement that was carefully studied and performed by the Prince Crimson himself.

Of course, the other countries also had brilliant doctors and scientists, so it would only be a matterof time before they realized that the upgrade of the spirit-manipulated beasts was due to geneticmodification. However, it didn't pose a threat or concern to the Holy Dragon Empire, becausethroughout the entire Wild Spirit Land, Rocky was the only one who had completely mastered thegenetic technology. Even though he had assistants, he was the only one who knew the final processof producing the medicine for genetic modification; thus, there was no way that the secret of themedicine would be leaked.

Through the smooth implementation of the genetic modification, several countries had started tofear the Holy Dragon Empire. After battling the empire for more than a year, these countriessuffered heavy casualties without making any progress. They realized that they were just wastingtheir lives and resources all this time. Therefore, some countries had already withdrawn from theborders of the Holy Dragon Empire. Although there were still some countries that stayed and triedto push their luck on besieging the empire.

Therefore, the originally tense situation all over the empire was gradually alleviated. As the battlesdecreased, the borders became relatively peaceful. However, they had no time to relax yet.

The entire Wild Spirit Land was still not peaceful and could break out wars at any minute because ofthe existence of the spiritual treasures.

More than a year ago, the clans of the spiritual race in the Wild Spirit Land had begun to diligentlysearch for these spiritual treasures. At that time, only two of the nine spiritual treasures had notbeen found yet. The Sunrise Magic Dragon Bow was in Rocky's possession, while most of thespiritual treasures were in the hands of the clans of spiritual races who had originally possessedthem. The Wood Clan, the Phoenix Master Can, the Butterfly Divine Clan, and the Ghost Master Clan,which were the four major spiritual race clans, had all found their own spiritual treasures. On theother hand, there was one clan that possessed two spiritual treasures and was quickly making aname for itself in the Wild Spirit Land—the Heavenly Demon Clan.

Although the Heavenly Demon Clan kept a low profile, it wasn't a secret to everyone that they hadtwo spiritual treasures. Moreover, some of the prominent spiritual race clans, including the WoodClan and the Phoenix Master Clan, were aware that the Heavenly Demon Clan had been growingstronger and stronger in the past few decades. However, they just turned a blind eye on thembecause they couldn't risk unnecessary deaths in their clan. The clans of the spiritual race werefacing a dilemma in terms of their reproduction. Their number was growing smaller as time passedby. If a war started between two clans, the consequences would be dire. The involved clans wouldsuffer great damages, and the other clans might take that opportunity to take advantage andoverpower them. Everything would eventually be in disarray. Because of this, the major clans of thespiritual race weren't able to move freely and take action against the Heavenly Demon Clan like theydid to the Butterfly Divine Clan back then.

On the other hand, the Heavenly Demon Clan was pretty smart. They were so careful with theiractions so as not to provoke the major clans of the spiritual race. Previously, they even set a plot toally themselves with the Wood Clan. However, that plan was ruined by Rocky. It was pretty obviousthat their main goal was to acquire the legendary guardian beast of the Wood Clan. Unlike the otherspiritual race clans, the Heavenly Demon Clan didn't have its own legendary guardian beast. Even ifthey possessed two spiritual treasures, they weren't satisfied. After all, spiritual treasures were notsomething that could be readily used by any member of the spiritual race. Only powerful spiritualmasters that were recognized by the spiritual treasures would be able to use them. Therefore, eventhough they had two precious spiritual treasures, there was still a possibility that they might not beable to use them.

In comparison, it was more practical to seek for legendary guardian beasts. Although they might notbe as powerful as the spiritual treasures, they could be enhanced over time and reach a level thatwas as powerful as a half-god or even stronger.

For example, the descendant of an ancient spiritual beast without a soul possessed by Rocky was sopowerful that the spiritual masters of the Wood Clan couldn't do anything to defeat it. In the end,they could only resort to taking its soul away. The legendary guardian beasts were transformedfrom the nine strongest ancient spiritual beasts that were born in the same era when the spiritualrace was born. To say the least, such beasts were extremely powerful that they were coveted bymany.
