"I see." Rocky nodded. If that was the case, and they finally made it to stop the spiritual race from
retrieving the ninth spiritual treasure, there was no need for him to worry about the future.
"If you have no more questions, please go and prepare for the journey first. The Water Master Clan's
ruins are in the southernmost Water Beast Sea of the Wild Spirit Land. By then, I will bring the
members of the Butterfly Divine Clan to meet you. Since it is the last spiritual treasure, I am sure that
many spiritual race clans are determined to get it. This time, not only will there be a large number of
human spirit manipulators, but a large number of powerful spiritual race beings will certainly go there. It
will be an unprecedented melee, so you have to be fully prepared. I think it will be best to join hands
with other spiritual race clans that also want to prevent the ninth spiritual treasure from appearing. After
all, our Butterfly Divine Clan alone may not be able to help you deal with that many spiritual race
clans," Cherry said thoughtfully. Moreover, she knew that Rocky had a close relationship with the
Dragon Master Clan, the Wood Clan, and the Phoenix Master Clan. He had also helped the three clans
before. Therefore, if Rocky were to talk to them, perhaps, he could gather the power of these three
clans to prevent the ninth spiritual treasure from being taken out.
"I'll do as I see fit," Rocky responded as if he already had his own plans in his mind.
After that, Cherry said goodbye and left.
Once she was gone, Rocky went to Moira first and told her the legend about the calamity beasts that
Cherry had mentioned.
"I did hear about this legend from my father. However, since it had happened before the beginning of
the spiritual race, I don't know whether it's true or not, and we can't verify it. However, if we can prevent
the ninth spiritual treasure from appearing, it might not be a bad thing." Moira also knew that if the ninth
spiritual treasure were released, it would definitely cause a massive change in the entire Wild Spirit
Land. It was hard to predict what would happen after that.
"That is why I'm hoping the Dragon Master Clan can help me this time," Rocky said with certainty.
"As you have helped our clan a lot in the past, this time, we will go all out to help you prevent the ninth
spiritual treasure from appearing," Moira replied without hesitation with a grateful look on her face.
"Thank you." Rocky nodded gratefully as well. Then, as he was about to leave after talking with Moira,
Harriet suddenly came in.
She looked like she was looking for Moira but was stopped to talk with Rocky for a bit.
"Isis said that you were not used to living in the city, so she arranged a room for you with the Dragon
Master Clan. How are you holding up here?" Rocky asked. After he returned to the Crimson City, he
heard that Harriet was sent to the Dragon Master Clan's residence because she was not used to
human life.
"Uhm... It's not bad," Harriet answered awkwardly, glancing at Rocky.
"It's okay. I already know Harriet's story. Don't worry. I'll take care of her in the future," Moira answered
as she stepped forward to intervene. In fact, the first time she saw Harriet, she felt like she was an old
friend. They were from different spiritual race clans, but Moira had been a mother. Thus, when she saw
the helpless and barely matured Harriet based on the spiritual race's age rank, her maternal nature
was aroused.
"Thank you." Rocky nodded. He was relieved to hear that, and he had somehow expected that as well.
After that, he went back to the Crimson City, where he immediately ordered his men to inform Marcia
about the ninth spiritual treasure. He needed her help in gathering a group of elite spirit manipulators of
the Holy Dragon Empire.
In addition, he also sent messages to the Timber Deity Empire and the Magic Phoenix Empire, hoping
to get support from the two empires. He also asked the two empires to inform the Wood Clan and the
Phoenix Master Clan, hoping that the two clans could take a stand and stop the ninth spiritual
treasure's appearance.
Rocky was unsure how the Wood Clan and the Phoenix Master Clan would react, but he knew that he
needed to try his best for everyone's sake.
Five days later, Marcia led a hundred spirit manipulators of the Holy Dragon Empire to the Crimson
City.
The Timber Deity Empire and the Magic Phoenix Empire also sent messages to Rocky, both saying
that they would send a team of spirit manipulators to support him. However, there was no news from
the Wood Clan and the Phoenix Master Clan for a long time. It seemed like they didn't want to get
involved in the coming melee.
"Isis, you should stay in the Crimson City with Sue to take care of Nigel." Rocky knew that it was very
dangerous this time, so he didn't want Isis to come with him. Moreover, somebody needed to take care
of Nigel. If something bad happened, he could not bear to make Nigel an orphan in one stroke.
"But..." Isis certainly knew that it was very dangerous to go this time, so she could not help but worry
for Rocky.
"Isis, don't worry. We will be with him." Sabina walked towards Isis and grabbed her hand reassuringly.
"Yes, we will protect him. He won't even lose a hair," Shirley added, glancing at Rocky with a smile.
Lucilla and Erica nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, sisters. I entrust him to you," Isis said with relief. She knew that she didn't need to worry
about Rocky at all with these women by his side, and she trusted them wholeheartedly.
Once all the preparations were finished, a hundred members of the Dragon Master Clan set out
together with Rocky, and the other women. A hundred elite spirit manipulators that Marcia had
gathered herself joined them, and they all headed for the rendezvous with the Timber Deity Empire and
the Magic Phoenix Empire.
Three days later, the team led by Rocky arrived at the appointed place.
The next day, Alyssa led a group of more than one-hundred elite spirit manipulators from the Timber
Deity Empire to meet with them. On the other hand, the Magic Phoenix Empire sent fifty elite spirit
manipulators led by a peerless master of the Divine Stage.
When they were finally complete, Rocky led the team to their destination, the Water Beast Sea in the
southernmost part of the Wild Spirit Land.
The Water Beast Sea was named for the fact that it gathered the rarest underwater spirit-manipulated
beasts and supernatural beasts in the Wild Spirit Land. It was also the only mysterious water area in
the Wild Spirit Land, where the two kinds of beasts inhabited together.
When they arrived at the Water Beast Sea, they were met by the dazzling blue sea and sky, as the
horizon almost disappeared with the glorious blue. The surface of the sea sparkled like a thousand
diamonds everywhere the sunlight touched, and it gave Rocky and his companions a somewhat
peaceful feeling.
"This looks like a great place for a vacation." Rocky looked around the boundless sea. He could not
help but think that it would be very suitable for a vacation if he built a wooden house here. Of course,
that didn't take into consideration the shark-like spirit-manipulated beasts that could jump out of the
water at any time.
However, unbeknownst to them, this sense of peace would be broken soon.
The Water Beast Sea had a vast coastline, so Rocky took advantage of it and led the team around it.
They almost reached the westernmost area of the coastline, for they detoured the long way to avoid a
confrontation with other spiritual race beings and other human spirit manipulators.
"Let's camp here first. Marcia and Alyssa, I want you two to supervise our camp's preparation. Sabina,
Lucilla, come with me. We will spy on the enemy," Rocky said immediately.
The latter two women nodded at once. Then, they left with Rocky, running along the coastline to spy on
the enemy.
