The Medallion

Chapter 1852 The Shocking Scene

Meanwhile, a battle was quietly stirring at the border battlefield of the Ethereal Region. At this point, the human race had decisively launched a counterattack to take back the defensive line that they lost when Zain led his troops and invaded their territory.

It had been more than half a month since Zain was ordered by the king to retreat his forces because the human army had invaded the Shura Race. Since then, only half of his troops were guarding the border against the rest of the human army.

But with more than half a month's worth of rest, the human army at the border finally recuperated and regained its morale.

On the other hand, the previous consecutive battles had exhausted the Shura Race's army. Since they were on the offensive before, they thought that if they stopped attacking, they could still relax their vigilance against the human army. At the back of their minds, they were confident that they could easily fight back even if the human race launched a surprise attack.

Therefore, this lax attitude of the Shura Race's army gave the human army an excellent chance to get back at them.

Of course, this was all arranged by Rocky before he and the other prominent figures of the Shura Race left for the Ghostly Demon Land. He knew that once Zain left the battlefield, no one would be strong enough to command the army of the Shura Race in this war against the human race. Therefore, this was the chance that they had been waiting for.

Moreover, Rocky's independent army also began launching small-scale attacks on the border of the Shura Race at frequent intervals. Their purpose was to test the defensive prowess of the Shura Race's army, as well as collect essential information.

Gradually and discreetly, the human race was slowly turning the tide of the battle without making it too obvious.

At this moment, inside the Ghostly Demon Land, Rocky and Valeria were still treading the swamp. Although they were now ahead of Enoch's team, they still could not afford to let their guard down. After all, they had to overcome all kinds of dangers that they would encounter all by themselves.

Right now, they had just defeated a few more ghostly demons, so they took the opportunity to find a place to have some rest and recover their strength. At the same time, both of them were thinking about different issues in their minds.

As expected, Rocky had been restless since he happened to hear the conversation between Enoch and the mysterious woman. Based on what he heard, his instinct told him that this woman was not someone ordinary. He was not sure where she came from. But he speculated that she must be a demoness. If that was true, Rocky thought that he might not have sufficient strength right now to prevent her evil plans.

'From the beginning, I already thought that this mission would be very difficult. But I did not expect that it would be this troublesome. More and more hurdles just keep piling up. If I had known that something this big was actually ensuing beneath the surface, I wouldn't have agreed to this so easily, ' Rocky thought to himself as he felt a little regretful.

At the same time, Valeria was also thinking and trying to absorb all the shocking secrets that Rocky told her yesterday. She thought that she already heard all his biggest secrets, but she learned that it was not the case. Of course, it made her a little upset. She had completely put her trust in Rocky, but it seemed that the feeling was not mutual. Thinking about it, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.

However, while they were still resting, they suddenly felt a strange and domineering aura rise into the sky not far away from them.

"What the hell is with this aura? This ghostly demon is even more powerful than the ones we encountered before!" Rocky and Valeria could not help but shift their gazes to the source of the aura as their eyes widened.

"It seems to be coming from that direction!" Valeria immediately pointed to their right.

"It is smarter if we stay away from it. We can't get involved with every single ghostly demon in this place." At this point, Rocky knew that it was much more important to protect themselves and get out of trouble as much as possible.

However, even before the two of them could leave, two warriors at the Shura Realm, followed by more warriors at the Emperor Realm, suddenly appeared. It seemed that they were frantically running away from something ominous.

Not long after, Rocky and Valeria saw a female ghostly demon flying above the members of the Shura Race and chasing after them.

In an instant, one of the fleeing warriors was caught, and his spiritual power was sucked out of his body. The very next moment, he became as dry as a mummy.

When the two Godly Geniuses saw this, their faces turned pale. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

"Run! Now!" Rocky immediately pulled Valeria while she was still in a daze. Then, they quickly ran in the opposite direction, trying to get away from the ghostly demon as soon as they could.

However, the female ghostly demon suddenly turned in the direction of Rocky. It was as if it sensed something from him that instantly caught its attention. Immediately after, it stopped chasing the other warriors of the Shura Race. Instead, it began rushing towards Rocky and Valeria.

Even though the two were already running at their top speed, the ghostly demon still managed to quickly cut the gap between them. After just a few moments, it was already at their tails. Then, in the blink of an eye, it waved its arms and appeared in front of them. Wasting no time, Rocky and Valeria started running backward since they would not be able to move forward.

Upon seeing their desperation to escape, the ghostly demon let out a burst of eerie laughter.

Even before it started chasing after them, Rocky could already sense how powerful it was. Realizing that they could not outrun it, he finally decided to confront it head-on. Therefore, he instantly summoned the God-killing Sword, faced the ghostly demon, and slashed the sword in the air.

In a flash, the God-killing Sword released a stream of sharp energy that turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed toward the ghostly demon.

Apparently, the ghostly demon did not expect that Rocky would possess a divine treasure. Caught off guard, the tremendous force from the sword dismembered the ghostly demon, making its body dissipate right after.

Unexpectedly, just after a few moments, its body slowly formed again and eventually returned to its original state.

When he saw this, Rocky's face darkened. His eyes narrowed as he carefully observed the monstrous ghostly demon. It was becoming even more obvious that this one was on another level compared to the zombies that he had dealt before.

But before it could attack, Rocky wielded his sword and slashed it a few more times, sending out a barrage of sword shadows that incapacitated the ghostly demon. With this, Rocky immediately took the opportunity to pull Valeria and continue to run away.

However, to their surprise, instead of reinstating its original form, the ghostly demon turned into a mass of demonic fog that surrounded them, blocking their escape route.

"Damn it. This one is so persistent!" Rocky could not help but exclaim in frustration. He clenched his fists, not expecting that they would come across such a powerful ghostly demon that could withstand the attacks of the God-killing Sword.

"I'll deal with it. When you find a chance, go away and find a safe place to hide!" Rocky uttered loudly. He was now seriously considering going all out, so he wanted Valeria to hide. That way, he would not need to worry about her while fighting the ghostly demon.

"What? No way! I am not leaving without you!" With a serious look on her face, Valeria shook her head and strongly refused. She thought that it would be such a stupid thing to save her life while Rocky confronted such a dangerous situation.

Then, out of nowhere, the ghostly demon let out a deafening shriek. Immediately after, a strong demonic aura spread out and surged towards them like a raging tide.

Just as the two of them were faced with an imminent menace, a shining dark light shot out and descended from the sky. It emitted a strong evil aura that immediately dispersed the demonic fog.

"I know this aura... Finally!" When Rocky saw the dark light, he seemed to have quickly realized what it was.

On the other hand, the ghostly demon trembled in fear the moment it saw the dark light. In an instant, the black fog dissipated, rushing away from the scene.

The next moment, the dark light caused the space around it to shake violently. After a while, a figure was revealed from the light. An overbearing dragon-shaped diabolic beast stood in front of them,

exuding an overwhelming aura. As it raised its head, it seemed like a beast king that ruled every other beast on the surface.

"Y-you know what this is?" Valeria stammered, confused that Rocky was elated to see another monstrous beast that was even more powerful than the ghostly demon.

"I was actually waiting for you! At last, you arrived." Rocky could not help but laugh and feel relieved. He then walked towards the diabolic beast and examined it closely.

Valeria was confused and worried at the same time. She wanted to stop Rocky from approaching it because it might suddenly attack him. However, she was rendered speechless at what happened next. The dragon-shaped diabolic beast suddenly knelt on the ground and respectfully bowed to Rocky.

It turned out that this dragon-shaped diabolic beast was none other than the legendary diabolic beast that was hatched from the red diabolic egg.

"Hmm, you need a name. All right, I have decided. I shall call you Rubygon!" Rocky declared, naming the diabolic beast with a huge smile.

Hearing the name that Rocky gave it, the diabolic beast raised its head high and let out a roar, responding to its master.
