Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1724 A Game

When Rocky walked around the screen, he averted his eyes so he wasn't looking directly at Valeria.The last thing he wanted to do was to embarrass her.

"I will give you the black needles and then I will go. It will hurt a little bit,” Rocky said as he walkedbehind her. Then, he took out the black needles and stabbed them into her back as fast as he could.It didn't take long for Valeria to feel her meridians become smoother.

About five minutes later, Rocky had finished the acupuncture.

"You can rest in the medicated bath now. The black needles that are in your back will guide yourspiritual power and help it repair your meridians. It will take about six hours. You must stay here thewhole time. You are not allowed to go anywhere else," Rocky ordered.

"Okay." Valeria nodded.

" have to leave the Ghost Palace for a while, but I'll set up some restrictions to protect you. I wantyou to rest and let yourself heal. I'll be back just before the six hours are up." Wasting no time,Rocky departed.

Valeria watched his back retreating and sighed. Then she closed her eyes, leaned back in thebathtub, and allowed the needles and medicine to heal her.

After leaving the Ghost Palace, Rocky went to the lake. He didn't want anyone else to come with himbecause he needed to focus on familiarizing himself with his new power.

Right now, the power that filled his body had already surpassed the limits of the Shura Race. Thehighest realm he was supposed to be able to reach was the Half-god Realm. If he put in the hardwork, he could become a god one day.

It was a long, grueling task to reach the Half-god Realm. The first step was breaking through theShura Realm and preparing a solid foundation.

Fortunately, Rocky had been able to use the Spiritual Energy Gathering Pill to increase his strengthfrom a Spiritual King to a premium-stage Spiritual Emperor, saving him a lot of time.

But for any cultivator, reaching the peak level was tremendously difficult. It could not be fulfilledovernight. Even the genius of the Shura Race would need at least ten years to break through fromthe premium stage to the peak level.

Therefore, if Rocky wanted to break through to the peak level, he couldn't rely on his cultivationalone. He would have to replace a new method.

He was already talented at gene technology but that was limited to spiritual beasts. Thepowerhouses in this world were not good at beast taming, let alone cultivating with beasts.Therefore, Rocky's gene technology was useless. At most, he could use it to transform the genes ofspiritual beasts to make them stronger.

But the strongest warriors in the Shura Race weren't afraid of spiritual beasts, no matter howpowerful they were. That was because the strongest beast was equal to the peak level of a SpiritualEmperor at most and there were very few of those. Beasts normally had power below the premiumstage, so they posed no threats to the Shura Race.

After all, there was a large number of Spiritual Emperors in the Shura Race. For example, in teamsthat were responsible for escorting Godly Geniuses to the Nether Fire Land, there were at leastseven or eight Spiritual Emperors. This was evident enough that the Shura Race had strong, talentedcultivators on its side.

All of it was bad news for Rocky. He couldn't practice working with genes here.

That was why he had followed Esteban and learned medicine refinement. Refining rare pills couldimprove his strength, but the materials he needed were also extremely hard to replace. A lot of timewould be wasted collecting them. It was not a shortcut he could use for breakthrough. It could onlybe used as an auxiliary method.

"This is going to be a lot harder than I thought. I need a viable shortcut to break through to thepeak level faster.” Rocky sighed. His head was wrapped up with thoughts but he couldn't sort themand figure out a better way to cultivate.

However, with his premium grade spiritual skill, Rocky already stood out among the nine GodlyGeniuses. The only opponent that was close to matching him was Israel. Therefore, there was noneed for him to rush.

Rocky lowered himself onto the edge of the lake and began to familiarize himself with his newpower.

Six hours passed quickly.

After he noticed what time it was, Rocky went back to the Ghost Palace. When he arrived at thepharmacy and bypassed the screen, he saw Valeria leaning against the edge of the bathtub."Ahem!" Rocky coughed politely.

Valeria had been relaxing herself in the hot water with her eyes closed. She immediately opened hereyes when she heard someone approaching. When she saw that it was Rocky, she slid back into thebathtub with a red face.

"It's time to pull out the black needles.” Rocky stepped closer to her back and yanked each blackneedle out one at a time.

After he was done, Rocky stayed silent and walked behind the screen again.

As soon as he was gone, Valeria stood from the bathtub. Then, she evaporated the residual waterthat was on her body using her spiritual power and got dressed. After that, she joined Rocky on theother side of the screen.

"Thank you. I feel much better now." It was rare for Valeria to express her gratitude sincerely soRocky raised his eyebrows.

"You're welcome. Today was only the first course of your treatment. Because your meridians were sobadly injured, you'll need at least four courses of treatment, once every three days. It will take half amonth," Rocky explained.

"That's a long time!" Because of previous experiences with wounds, she had thought that it wouldonly take a few days to recover. It usually took only two or three days for the elders from the FlowerFief to heal her wounds.

"It's because I don't want you to have any long-lasting consequences. You know that your meridiansare damaged. If you can't fix them fast enough, your future cultivation will be affected and youcould even lose control during your cultivation one day. Normally, I wouldn't care so much, but youare my fiancee. I have to try my best to fix you,” Rocky said in a teasing tone.

Valeria shot him an angry look. The way he had said the word "fiancee" had sounded a little harsh."Keep resting for the time being. While you are undergoing the treatment, try not to use yourspiritual power. You should adjust your breath normally,” Rocky warned.

"Okay." After casting a glance at Rocky, Valeria turned around and left. Rocky watched her figure asshe strolled away.

"I hope she follows my orders. Actually, she is a nice girl despite being arrogant and willful fromtime to time. But unfortunately, she still has to do whatever she's told for the sake of her fief. I am inthe same boat! In order to go back to the original world and see my friends again, I have to dowhatever I can and make use of all the resources..." Rocky's eyes narrowed into a frown.

Meanwhile, in the floating hall above the northernmost tip of the continent, a delicate figure wasstaring at the pillar of divine power which had reached three feet.

A look of surprise was etched into her face. As she looked around, she noticed that the other eightpillars were much shorter.

"Why did his pillar of divine power grow so much? He must have had some adventures in theNether Fire Land." The figure shook her head. She couldn't understand it. "I was watching. He couldhave made the Nether Dragon King surrender, but he didn't. He is unpredictable, but he is also themost interesting Godly Genius I've ever seen...

In order to avoid making the other Godly Geniuses less confident, I won't announce the progress oftheir pillars of divine power this time. As for the Nether Dragon King's task, it will be announcedlater. After all, the next task is more interesting than the Nether Dragon King. Let them rest for a fewmore days, and then we will welcome them to the new trial..." the figure muttered to herself. To her,the battle between the Godly Geniuses was just a game.
