Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1568 Be Careful

"Thank you so much for what you did today,” Kye suddenly uttered out of the blue.

"I just did what I thought I should do. Anyway, it's nice to see that you're starting to talk to me..."Rocky replied.

"I admit that I was doubtful of you before, but my moral compass is still as good as anyone. I knowyou're just trying to do the right thing. I'd be lying if I said that I was pleased that you replaced meas the leader, but after seeing your work up close, I realized it was for the better good,” Kyeanswered back, not letting his pride cloud his judgment. When he saw Rocky capture thecommander of the spiritual race's army and help them escape from the Crescent Gorge, he knew hewas in the wrong. What was more, Rocky didn't hesitate to save his life again this time.

"I'm glad that you think so!" A feeling of relief washed over Rocky. He didn't expect that he wouldgain Kye's trust in such a short amount of time.

"But this doesn't mean that I like you. You're still a closed book." Kye's tone suddenly changed as alook of disdain was seen on his face.

"Really?"

"Of course, what happened in that cave couldn't be that simple. I have a feeling that you're hidingsomething,” he added. His intuition was seldom wrong. He knew the man in front of him was nottelling the whole truth.

"It's better for you if you don't know much about some things. It won't do you any good. What'simportant is that you're alive and safe right now.” Rocky tried his best not to give him the truth."That's true, but I don't like the feeling of being kept in the dark," Kye said.

"Speaking of this, I have to ask you something.” Rocky suddenly shifted the topic.

"What is it?"

"You haven't merged with a martial spirit, have you?" he asked.

"Martial spirit? Are you kidding me? How could I have the chance to fuse with a martial spirit?" Kyewas caught off guard by the question.

For an unknown spirit warrior like him, it was almost next to impossible to merge with a rare martialspirit even if he was talented.

"Well, that's a shame. A man of your talent would go far if you had the chance to fuse with one. YourSpiritual Infant could even reach the advanced stage in no time!" Rocky said with a cunning smile."Where are you going with this?" Kye felt his words were tongue in cheek.

"Let's say that I have the power to let you merge with a martial spirit. How would you repay me?" Ashrewd look flashed across Rocky's eyes.

"Is this some sort of joke? Or are you playing tricks on me?" Kye was in disbelief. He couldn't believewhat he was hearing.

"Do you think I'm joking?" Rocky said in a serious tone.

Kye hesitated to answer. He shifted his gaze towards Rocky a few times to see if he was really tellingthe truth. In the end, he knew he couldnt pass on the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "If you canreally give me such a chance, I will follow and support you till death. I swear to serve you with all ofmy heart and soul!”

"I trust that you'll keep your word. Come with me." Hearing that, Rocky smiled at once. He thengrabbed Kye's shoulder and instantly took him into the Magic Spiritual Space.

"What is this place?” Finding himself in a seemingly magical and enchantingly beautiful place, Kyecouldn't help but feel amazed.

"Don’t ask too much.” Rocky then immediately summoned the martial spirits that were scatteredaround in his Magic Spiritual Space.

The spirit warrior was stunned to see a large group of martial spirits around him.

"This..." He was speechless. He couldn't understand how a seemingly simple man could havecollected so many of those rare martial spirits. What was even more surprising, they even seem toheed his orders.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Feel free to choose which one you'd like to merge with." Rockysnapped him out of it.

Kye's suspicions suddenly faded away as he began to carefully shuffle among the martial spirits toreplace the suitable one for himself.

Not long after, he found himself standing before a valiant looking martial spirit holding abroadsword and said, "I want him!"

"Well, try to merge with him,” Rocky said as he stood by and watched.

Kye nodded and without saying another word, released his spiritual power to try and fuse with themartial spirit.

But for whatever reason, the spirit rejected him. After trying for a long time to capture its heart, theyoung spirit warrior collapsed on the ground, exhausted and gasping for air.

"Did you fail?" Rocky, who watched from a distance, shook his head slightly in dismay.

"Damn it!" Kye gritted his teeth in frustration. He couldn't let such an opportunity slip by.

"Don't be discouraged. It seems that this martial spirit doesn't like you. When you regain yourstrength, you can try another one. With the number of martial spirits I have here, there should beone bound to be suitable for you.” Rocky offered a few words of comfort.

"Are you still willing to give me a try?" Kye, who was disappointed with himself, asked with his headbowed down.

"Of course. It's worth it in exchange for a loyal follower. But first, let's get out of here.” After sayingthat, Rocky left the Magic Spiritual Space along with the young warrior.

"Go and take a break!" He said to Kye.

The feeling of defeat was still aching in Kye's heart, and so, he gave Rocky a meaningful look andleft dejectedly.

“This fellow will surely be a valuable subject. If he can fuse with a martial spirit, there's no doubt thathe can be useful in the future.’ Rocky was lost in thought as he watched Kye's receding figure.

The night quickly passed.

The next day, the patrol troops continued to head back. They had to search one last area tocomplete their mission.

They arrived in a primeval forest near the Panta Mountain, which was one of the most dangerousareas where spiritual beasts would frequently appear. If it weren't for the threat that the spiritualrace was seeking to claim the area, Deputy Commander Lin would never have led his team there.To ensure his soldiers safety, the deputy commander decided to camp on the outskirts of the densejungle while he sent a team of spirit warriors to explore the area first. Only after confirming a saferoute would he order the rest to march inside.

It was none other than Rocky who led the scouting team.

After getting ready, they headed into the primeval forest.

Since no humans lived inside it, the forest was filled with wild plants and animals. The trees reachedhigh into the sky while the grass grew as tall as a person. As they moved further inside, they couldsee nothing but an endless sea of grass and leaves.

"Be careful. There may be spiritual beasts lurking around, waiting to ambush us,” Rocky remindedhis team.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he suddenly felt an ominous aura approaching.

"Watch out! There is a spiritual beast!" He immediately alerted everyone.
