Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1226 A Gift

The capacity and endurance of a spirit manipulator's Magic Spiritual Space were directly related tohis own strength. Therefore, when Glutton made such a huge ruckus within Rocky's Magic SpiritualSpace, he immediately felt that his spiritual power was also in a mess. It was like a group of demonswas rampaging in his body, and his chest was so stuffy, making him hard to breathe.

'What is it doing? Does Glutton want to kill me?' Rocky clenched his fists as his face turned pale. Hehad just managed to escape from a huge disaster, and now Glutton was creating such excruciatingturmoil.

Eventually, the uproar subsided just before Rocky was unable to hold on any longer. The remainsfloating in the air gradually turned into ashes and scattered on the ground. Then, Glutton's bodyshone in bright red light, and a demonic aura shot through the sky in a great momentum. It was asif a demon king was about to descend to the world.

After a while, the body began to shrink, and it finally transformed into a human shape.

Then, the human-shaped Glutton emerged, wearing brocade clothes and a jade crown. There wasno hint of a demonic beast in its appearance. It looked quite elegant, like a gentleman. It could besaid that it looked very similar to a member of the spiritual race, but of course, the aura it emittedwas far superior.

Even Rocky was a little stunned when he saw Glutton's current appearance. He didn't expect thatthe mightiest ancient demonic beast could transform into the shape of a human.

"What? Do I look strange?” Glutton asked Rocky who was quite staring for a while now.

"Well, I just didn't expect that you could take this form," Rocky explained.

"I have no choice. This is the only way that I can suppress my strength. If I display my original form, Iwon't be able to control my own power,” Glutton answered indifferently.

"Hmm, but why do you look like a member of some spiritual race?" Rocky finally asked. This wasalready in his mind the moment Glutton's figure emerged.

"Ha! What an ignorant human! Where do you think the spiritual race evolved from?" Glutton shookits head and glanced at Rocky with disdainful eyes.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Rocky asked with furrowed brows.

"Fine, let me tell you. The ancestors of the spiritual race were from the same clan as the ancientdemonic beasts and the ancient spiritual beasts. However, they became more intelligent, and theyhad been much disciplined in studying and cultivating over the years. Eventually, their bodiesevolved into what you see now as the spiritual race. Then, they reproduced and slowly grew innumber. This is their origin,” Glutton explained briefly.

"So, you mean to say that the spiritual race in the Wild Spirit Land underwent a backwardevolution?" Rocky was surprised to hear this. Obviously, the survival of the fittest was a natural law;however, it was pretty inconceivable and against the natural law for powerful beasts, like the ancientdemonic beasts and ancient spiritual beasts, to transform into human-like bodies. Thus, it could becalled a backward evolution.

"I don't know about this backward evolution you're telling me, but you have to know that the birthof the spiritual race was what changed everything. It became the start of the extinction of thedemonic beasts. Thus, you can't blame me for hating the spiritual race,” Glutton said indignantly."But who is Divine King Belial? What is his relationship with the spiritual race? Why does the spiritualrace submit to him?" Rocky asked all the questions that he still found pretty vague.

"So, I was right. It seems like King Apollyon didn't tell you anything. Well, it's just normal. If youknew all the secrets regarding the spiritual race, their lives would be threatened. But it has nothingto do with me. I even wish that all of them would just die,” Glutton remarked with a cold expressionin its eyes.

"Now I'm more curious about the secret hidden by the spiritual race from the humans,” Rockyreplied in a dissatisfied tone.

"If King Apollyon didn't tell you, he must have his reasons, one of which must be to protect you. Ifyou don't want to be the enemy of the spiritual race, you'd better not know too much,” Glutton saidwith a bitter smile as if trying to be kindhearted.

"Fine. I will still know it sooner or later,” Rocky said as he shrugged his shoulders.

"You stubborn human. What you saw in the Heavenly God Temple is actually the answer that youare searching for." Glutton gave Rocky a hint.

"What I saw in the Heavenly God Temple?" Rocky was stunned and confused. The first thing thatcame to his mind was the twelve statues. He couldn't help but wonder if the secret of the spiritualrace had something to do with them

"I've already said too much. Let's just get out of here.” Then, Glutton eventually walked out of theMagic Spiritual Space, followed by Rocky.

As they walked out, the demonic light all over Glutton's body suddenly rose, and a pair of hugewings emerged on its back. Without warning, it pulled Rocky and disappeared from where theywere standing.

The speed at which Glutton flew was astonishing. Even Rocky couldn't help but get dizzy. It was as ifthe sky and earth were spinning at the speed of light. When he finally regained his senses, he sawthat they had already returned to the foot of the icy tombstone of the Myriad Spirit Tomb.

"We're here already? That's unbelievably fast!" Rocky exclaimed, flabbergasted at what he justexperienced.

"I'll keep my promise to you but make sure that you won't disturb me if you have nothing importantto say. I still need some time to refine the power absorbed from my remains.” After both of themagreed, Glutton asked Rocky to open his Magic Spiritual Space so that it could enter the space.When Glutton left, Rocky rode Uriah and flew back to the Magic Phoenix Empire. Soon after, he wasable to meet Marcia and the other women again in the royal palace.

"At last, you came back. Where have you been? We've been really worried because you're late.”Since Rocky had been away for two days and two nights, and they didn't know where he went, theycouldn't help but anxiously wait for him.

"I'm sorry. I was just kind of waylaid, but everything's fine now," Rocky replied with a forced smile.Alyssa walked up to him and gently said, "Just don't do this again next time. You can't just disappearwithout telling us where you will be going. You can't blame us for worrying too much.”

"l know," Rocky answered softly.

While they were still talking, Felicia and Erica came in

"Prince Crimson, it was thanks to you that the Magic Phoenix Empire was saved from such disaster.To repay your kindness, our queen has decided to marry my disciple, Erica, to you." Felicia made itsound very formal, but Rocky and the others could see through the underlying motive in every wordthat she spoke. They knew that she must be up to something.

At first, they were surprised. They didn't expect that the Magic Phoenix Empire would go this far. Butof course, they knew what the empire really wanted. The Magic Phoenix Empire hoped that Ericacould get pregnant with Rocky's child, who in turn would inherit the parents’ excellent genes."Well... I don't think that it's necessary.” Rocky did all he could to refuse politely. He also cast aglance at Erica and found that her expression was a little complicated. It seemed that she wasdissatisfied and wanted to disagree with the decision of the queen.

"Our queen said that even if you refuse, we will still send Erica to the Holy Dragon Empire. Her roleis to boost the relationship between the two empires. So, even if you don't accept our gift, we'resure that the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire would be glad to do so," Felicia said firmly,making them understand that there was no room for any negotiation.

Rocky frowned a bit after hearing this. Judging from what Felicia said, it was clear that the MagicPhoenix Empire would do whatever means just to force his marriage with Erica.
