Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1849 Some Dangers
Needless to say, it was just the real beginning of the journey for Rocky and Valeria.
It had not been easy for them to escape from the Ghostly Worm, but it seemed that they had notime to rest just yet. After they ran for only a few miles, the ground under their feet suddenly shookagain. This time the tremors felt more like a wave.
"This is different. Is it an earthquake?" Since Rocky had lived in modern society before being rebornas Basil, he knew what earthquakes felt like. Therefore, when he felt the unusual trembling, this washis first reaction.
Sensing that it might become even bigger, he immediately took Valeria's hand and took out theholy treasure from the palace that enabled them to fly for a short period. Then, they quickly soaredinto the air to avoid being caught up with the quake.
Just before they could fly, the ground already began to crack. However, a few moments after theyflew up, the ground beneath them suddenly stopped vibrating.
They observed it for some time, but it had already calmed down.
Seeing this, Rocky and Valeria could just look at each other in confusion. They assumed that it mighthave just been a false alarm.
Since there was no sign that the ground would move again, the two of them landed on the groundalready. However, the moment their feet touched the ground, the strong shaking of the groundbegan again. Soon enough, the earth split apart and it was instantly on the brink of collapse.
With this, Rocky had no choice but to carry Valeria again into the air. Just a few seconds after theirfeet left the ground, everything became calm again. Because of this, the two became rather pissed,not understanding what was going on.
"What the hell is happening?” Valeria asked in an annoyed tone.
"I'm not sure. But it seems that a ghostly demon under the ground can sense our spiritual powerwhen our feet are in contact with the ground. So, when we stand on the ground, the ghostly demonreacts, producing those massive quakes.” Although he was not a hundred percent sure, Rockythought that it was the only logical explanation.
"Then, how are we going to move forward? What should we do now?" Valeria could not help but letout a frown. They had already wasted a lot of time. If things continued this way, she was worriedthat it would be too late when they joined with Princess Layla and the rest of the team.
Of course, Rocky also knew that they could not go on like this. Hence, he entered the palacethrough his spiritual sense and met with the guardian. "Is there a treasure here that can release astrong spiritual power enough to attract the attention of the ghostly demons?”
Upon hearing Rocky's request, the guardian instantly brought a palm-sized stone base with fourhuman-shaped statues on each side.
"What does this treasure do?" Rocky asked with furrowed brows.
"This is called the Sculpture of Four Deities. With this treasure, you can summon the deities incharge of wind, fire, rain, and thunder to assist you. However, you can only use it for two hours. Itwill be up to you how you can use them effectively,” the guardian briefly explained.
"Only two hours? Well, I don't have any other choice, do I?" Soon enough, Rocky withdrew hisspiritual sense and took out the Sculpture of Four Deities.
Upon seeing that Rocky brought out another strange-looking treasure, Valeria could not helpherself from asking, "What is that?"
"We are about to know!" As soon as Rocky said this, he infused his spiritual power into the treasurethat he got from the palace.
In an instant, a golden light shone brightly and enveloped the Sculpture of Four Deities. Then, thestatues on the stone base turned into light shadows and came to life. They rushed out, eventuallytransforming into human figures.
The four human-shaped figures came in four different colors which signified their nature.
"Please pave the way for us!" Rocky uttered, addressing the four deities.
Immediately after, the deities surrounded Rocky and Valeria. First off, the Deity of Wind released astrong wind that lifted and carried them across the air.
Then, the Deity of Thunder also released its power of thunder that protected Rocky and Valeria.Next, the Deity of Fire turned into a ferocious fire dragon, moving in front of them. Wherever itpassed, the ground instantly became scorched soil. At the same time, harsh howls could be heardfrom beneath the ground as if the ghostly demons were being burned to a crisp.
"This is amazing! We might be able to get out of here in no time!" Valeria exclaimed. Under theprotection of the four deities, Rocky and Valeria could safely move forward. They did not need towalk through the yellow sand where the ghostly demons were waiting for them.
With the help of the Deity of Wind, they moved at an incredible speed. Hence, not long after, theygot out of the yellow sand area and entered a primeval forest. The trees here were so huge thatthey already reached the clouds. At first glance, they could tell that it existed since ancient times. Allgrasses and trees were unusually large, making them feel like they had stepped into the world ofgiants.
Upon entering the forest, the power of the four deities was also exhausted. The next moment, thetreasure turned into ashes and was dispersed by the wind.
"Just how many treasures do you have? We are lucky that you always have something to keep usaway from danger. Otherwise, we might have been killed by the ghostly demons by now." Valeriagasped for air and continued, "I wonder where Princess Layla and the others were teleported. Wedon't even know if they are safe or not.”
"That's right. If all of them were together, then we should not worry too much. But if they were alsodispersed, it is even more disadvantageous for the whole team,” Rocky said while shaking his head.After they had gone through the yellow sand area, Rocky had been more cautious. He assumed thatthere were more areas in the Ghostly Demon Land that might be more dangerous, so he could notafford to be careless. After all, he could not die before he accomplished his mission.
As they wandered around the forest, they noticed that it was very dense. It also meant that itstopography was more complicated than the previous area. Ghostly demons might be lurkingeverywhere, so they needed to be extra vigilant as they moved forward. Moreover, it was alreadydark. At this point, they could not risk going on. Thus, they immediately looked for a relatively safeplace where they could rest and wait until the sun rose again.
After securing a tree hole, Rocky took out a stove from the Magic Spiritual Space and decided tocook something. Although they did not really have to eat anything because of their currentstrength, he thought that it would be an effective way to ease the atmosphere and let Valeria relax.Since they entered the Ghostly Demon Land, she had been too nervous and scared. She did notneed to say it because he could see it in her eyes.
If she continued to be like this, it would affect their journey. She might get into unnecessary dangerbecause she did not have a clear head. Hence, Rocky was trying to calm her down.
When Rocky was still living in his original world, he loved cooking for himself, so he could easilymake good dishes.
After an hour, he was able to finish cooking a pot of delicious soup. Obviously, it also smelled verynice.
It did not take a while before Valeria's attention was caught by the fragrant aroma. Then, as soon asRocky finished filling up a bowl, she quickly took it from his hand. As she took a sip, a look ofsurprise and extreme satisfaction appeared on her face.
"It's so delicious! I did not expect that you will be good at cooking! Wow... I don't even rememberthe last time that I ate ordinary food; but I still remember when I was a kid, I would just go to thekitchen and replace something to eat whenever I was hungry," Valeria said in a low voice. She let out agentle smile as she felt nostalgic. Before she was adopted by Flora, she had been living an ordinarylife, and she hadn't had to worry about any kind of complicated responsibility. Looking back, shethought that it might not be bad if she still had that kind of life.
"I haven't eaten any normal food for a long time either. I just thought that it would be the perfecttime to do it." Rocky smiled while filling up a bowl for himself.
"I'll go ahead and eat first.” It seemed that Valeria could not resist the temptation of eating thedelicious soup anymore. In fact, she finished the bowl rather quickly and filled her bowl again.
"You don't need to rush. No one will take it away from you.” Rocky chuckled, elated at the fact thathe was seeing a childish part of Valeria.
"I'm not sure about that! You might eat it all, so I have to finish my part!" Valeria stuffed her facewhile blushing. She was not really hungry, but she felt so contented with the warmth of thedelicious food. Eventually, she forgot all the fears and dangers that they had encountered not longago.
