The Medallion

Chapter 1846 Meaningless

However, as soon as Princess Layla's team entered the Ghostly Demon Land, the transmission point was destroyed by the powerful force. In turn, it caused them to fail to reach their original destination. Moreover, their landing became chaotic, spreading them to various areas.

All of the members of Layla's team felt that they were pulled by a vicious force as if they were sucked into a black hole. They became extremely dizzy until they eventually lost consciousness.

When Rocky finally woke up, he found himself lying on the bed of a dry river. Half of his body was buried in sand and dust, and it seemed that he was in a desolate place. A moment later, a gust of cold wind blew from all directions, making him shiver to his bone.

Then, after a while, he noticed that he was alone. His eyes widened and he shouted, "Valeria!" As soon as he got his body out of the sand, the first thing that came to his mind was Valeria. He was worried that something bad happened to her, so he hurriedly tried to find her.

Eventually, Rocky saw her leaning against a big stone, still unconscious.

Then, Rocky instantly flew to her side and infused a stream of spiritual power into her body.

A few seconds later, Valeria started moaning and slowly opened her eyes.

"Valeria, are you okay? Are you hurt?" Rocky asked in a serious tone.

"I think I'm fine. Just a little dizzy, I guess. By the way, where are we? Are we already in the Ghostly Demon Land?" As Valeria looked around, she saw the quiet and barren surroundings. Apparently, they had arrived in the Ghostly Demon Land, but they were far from their original destination.

However, from what they saw, they were a bit surprised that the Ghostly Demon Land looked more appalling than what they had imagined.

"I guess so. The aura here is very chaotic. It fits the description that they told us. In fact, I can feel the auras of both gods and devils in this place," Rocky said with furrowed brows. The existence of the Holy-Evil World was like a legend to the members of the Shura Race since only a few of them managed to get to that place. Moreover, because Rocky had already been to the depths of the Holy Heaven Palace, he could easily tell that the Ghostly Demon Land was indeed more terrifying.

"What happened here? It feels like it had been completely destroyed a long time ago. I'm afraid all kinds of dangerous situations will welcome us eventually," Valeria uttered anxiously.

"I think so too. Anyway, we should be prepared. It seems that only the two of us are here. I don't see Princess Layla and the others, so they must have been teleported somewhere else. I want to find them, but it will be a bit difficult since we don't even know where we are." Rocky continued to examine their surroundings, and he could not help but let out a frown, not knowing where they should head first. The area where the two were was basically filled with a layer of yellow sand and dust. As they walked around, they could see some huge rocks protruding from the ground but no sign of life could be found anywhere. There was not even a single grass or tree in sight.

They could not help but think that this place was just like hell.

"What's going on? Can we leave here alive? I'm getting scared." Valeria started to sob a little, frightened at their current situation. She was so worried that they might really die if they weren't able to find a way to get out of there.

"Don't worry. Although I also don't know what will happen next, you can trust me to protect you. I won't let anything bad happen to you," Rocky promised firmly.

Valeria's worries gradually ebbed away. She felt a sense of comfort knowing that Rocky was by her side.

"For now, let's find a higher spot to observe the entire area. Maybe we can find a clue as to where our companions are." Fortunately for them, Rocky could still keep a level head even in this kind of situation. After all, this would not be enough to discourage him and make him give up.

After wiping the tears in her eyes, Valeria nodded and regained her composure.

Then, the two of them started walking along the dry river.

After a few minutes of walking, they reached a high place, where they could have a better view of their surroundings. Immediately after, they noticed an oasis not far away from them. There was a small lake in the center of the oasis, and it seemed that they could utilize it.

"Is it just a mirage?" Rocky's eyes narrowed as he looked intently.

"Why don't we go and take a look ourselves?" Then, Valeria quickly flew down, determined to reach the oasis. However, the moment she rushed forward, a strong invisible force suddenly bounced her back, making her almost fall on the ground.

Fortunately, Rocky was fast enough to catch Valeria. After knowing that she was not injured or wounded, he eventually put her down.

"It seems that I just bumped into an enchanted barrier!" Valeria frowned, caught off guard with the unexpected hindrance.

"An enchanted barrier, huh?" After thinking for a while, Rocky activated a few demonic avatars.

"Inspect the scope of this enchanted barrier!"

With Rocky's order, the avatars rushed in various directions, determining the extent of the barrier.

However, after his avatars tried to see where the enchanted barrier ended, Rocky found out that it was actually covering a circumference of at least a hundred meters.

It meant that the oasis in front of them was inside the enchanted barrier, and they wouldn't be able to reach it if they could not break the barrier.

Indeed, it was such bad luck for them that the oasis was surrounded by the barrier.

However, Rocky was not the type to give up easily. He moved close to the barrier and began studying it. But after a moment, he discerned that it was very different from the enchanted barriers that were used by the Shura Race. It turned out that even his prying skill was not effective to it.

"I can only assume that this enchanted barrier was set up by a deity," Rocky sighed and concluded. If this barrier was established by a deity, then it would be impossible for him to do anything about it.

He already did everything he could to analyze it but to no avail. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

"Does it mean that we have no way of getting to the oasis?" Valeria asked, a little disappointed.

"Let me try other methods first." After saying that, Rocky summoned the God-killing Sword, unleashed a huge amount of spiritual power, and poured it into the sword.

Upon raising the God-killing Sword in his hand, he swiftly slashed it across the air. Then, a dazzling flaming blade shadow rushed out, aimed towards the enchanted barrier.

However, even with the power of the God-killing Sword, it did not even leave a scratch on the surface of the barrier.

"What? Not even the God-killing Sword could cut it open? I can't believe this!" Rocky opened his eyes wide, obviously not expecting this result. After all, the God-killing Sword was already a divine treasure.

Hence, it only proved that this enchanted barrier was on a different level. If his strongest weapon could not do something against it, then there was nothing else he could try at the moment.

"It's fine. Let's not waste our time and energy here." Seeing that even Rocky's most powerful treasure was not enough to damage the enchanted barrier, Valeria had to give up on the oasis.

"All right. Let's walk along the enchanted barrier. Maybe we can spot an entrance somewhere. We also have to find Princess Layla and the others first. Let's hope that they are safe," Rocky said. At this time, he still did not have any clue where to find them. It was his first time in the Ghostly Demon Land, and Mikayla was not able to mention the kinds of danger that he might experience inside it. Hence, their only choice right now was to reunite with the rest of the princess's team.

"Okay, let's do that. As long as I am with you, I will not be afraid of anything!" Upon hearing the words that left her own mouth, Valeria immediately turned her face away from Rocky. She blushed hard, not expecting that she could say that loudly. Naturally, women could be vulnerable when they felt alone and helpless. However, if they were with their loved ones, they could easily feel at ease since they knew that they could rely on them. Obviously, Valeria was no exception.

On the other hand, Rocky quickly understood what the real meaning behind Valeria's words was. But at the same time, he could just grit his teeth, feeling a little guilty that he was not in the position to respond with this clear confession of love. At this point, this kind of emotion had no place in his heart. He was too focused on completing this mission because a huge burden was placed on his shoulders.
