Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1662 Ferocious Hatred
However, Rocky wasn't interested in the girl's body. He didn't even care to look at her properly. Hereached for and took out the magic needles that Esteban often used for practice and began to prickthem into the girl's flesh.
The use of magic needles was, in fact, no different from ordinary acupuncture. The only differencewas that these needles had to be used with the spiritual power which would condense the spiritualpower at the needle’s tip and stimulate the meridians and acupoints. The materials required for themagic needles were quite unusual as well. Although Esteban never admitted how he acquired them,Rocky speculated that they were most likely refined from strange meteorites that held questionablepower. That would explain how they could easily concentrate and control the spiritual power.
The Skill of Magic Needle wasn't difficult for Rocky since he already possessed the basic medicalskills necessary to execute it.
Soon, over twenty magic needles protruded from all over the girl's body—each needle covering allher important meridians and acupoints.
However, this skill wasn't just about gathering spiritual power. It also needed to form a connectionwith the tips of the magic needles to achieve the treatment's purpose. This was the mostchallenging part.
But Rocky was able to easily master even this kind of divine skill without being taught thanks to hishighly developed skills in beast curing
His hands continuously emanated spiritual power which eventually connected to the spiritual powerconcentrated at the tips of the magic needles. Together, they formed a network that would helpslowly draw out the poison from the girl's heart meridian towards her limbs.
Esteban would've been stunned if he was present. He would've never expected Rocky to master theSkill of Magic Needle, which Esteban created himself, by merely observing his treatments for threemonths.
"Il need you to cut open your lady's hands and feet, please,” Rocky requested the middle-agedwoman politely.
She immediately summoned the spiritual power within her into her two fingers and formed a lightblade. It sliced into the girl's hands and feet one after another. Blood as black as coal began to gushout of the wounds, a cold aura emanating off of it.
Five minutes later, the black-tinged blood began to gradually turn bright red and no longer gave offthe cold aura.
"She should be okay!" Then Rocky checked on what was happening within the girl's body. Afterconfirming that the poison had been completely discharged, he began to remove the magicneedles.
Once he finished withdrawing and putting away the magic needles, Rocky turned around and satback in his seat silently where he continued to read his medical book.
The middle-aged woman glanced at Rocky with a weird expression. But she continued to put on thegirl's clothes quickly and then carried her out of the ice bed, ready to leave.
"Are you really just an assistant?" The middle-aged woman asked as she turned to face him beforeleaving.
"Maybe not even an assistant,” Rocky replied playfully. "But if possible," he continued. "Keep whathappened today a secret for me! If Esteban replaces out, I may not be even able to assist anymore."The middle-aged woman shot him a suspicious look and nodded before she swiftly left with the girlcradled in her arms.
Once they were gone, Rocky hesitated for a moment. He stood up and gazed at the broken door.He couldn't help but wish for the chance to go out and have a look. However, he knew thatstepping outside would mean entering the Shura Race's territory. He was safe in the Ghost Palace.But beyond it, danger awaited him if he were to go anywhere with his human identity.
By then, Rocky suddenly thought of something. He immediately turned around and strode towardsa box beside the medicine cabinet. When he opened it, he was met with various masks made ofhuman skin, all of which looked as though they were from the Shura Race.
In addition to his penchant for dissecting, Esteban was also particularly keen on human skin masks.He often cut off the skin of corpses to make them so that he could disguise himself every time hewent out. Only within the confines of the Ghost Palace would Esteban reveal his true human form.Once he selected a mask, Rocky soaked it in a special potion concocted by Esteban and applied it tohis face. The mask began to shrink, tighten, and stick to his face in the blink of an eye. His face soonmorphed into a ferocious one from the Shura Race.
Rocky walked out of the palace and was relieved once he checked himself in a water basin'sreflection to make sure nothing was wrong.
As soon as he walked through the gate, a burst of dazzling light shot down from the sky and madehim squint. He stayed in the shadows of the Ghost Palace for three months. It was only normal thathe felt uncomfortable once he went out.
But once Rocky got used to it he continued to follow the stone path connecting the Ghost Palacewith the outside world. He began to familiarize himself with the new environment he was in.
"Most of the buildings here are shaped like palaces. They may belong to a powerful individual fromthe Shura Race.’ Rocky observed as he walked.
Not long after, he strolled into an area with quite a vibrant aura. Multiple members of the ShuraRace wore brocade clothes coming and going. Guards patrolled the vicinity back and forth as well.He observed more carefully and discovered that most of them were quite powerful. They were atlevel four or five of the Spirit Realm and many of them already achieved the Spiritual King levelAlthough he didn't see any warriors of the Emperor Realm, the Shura Race was indeed a naturallypowerful race with its numerous strong fighters!
However, he didn't move forward to avoid any unnecessary trouble. Instead, he was back to the wayhe came to return to the Ghost Palace.
But on the way, he suddenly sensed a powerful beast's aura. It was at least above the EmperorRealm. Rocky had only felt a similar aura in Harlan before.
Out of curiosity, he followed the aura and traced its origin.
The aura came from a further distance than he expected. It took nearly five minutes for Rocky topass through the towering buildings before a huge round platform appeared in front of him.
This area was hidden deep with the round platform located behind a wall more than ten metershigh. Surrounding the platform were eighteen huge pillars that were connected with a thick, longiron chain the color of coal. The other end of the chain was tightly wrapped around the hugecrawling beast stationed at the center of the platform.
'Why is this demonic beast imprisoned here? Judging from its aura, I'm afraid it's even stronger thanHarlan.’ Rocky's interest was piqued and began to approach it cautiously.
In that instant, the demonic beast sensed that someone was approaching. It swiftly straightened itsneck and raised its huge head. Its crimson eyes stared back with ferocious hatred.
