The Medallion

Chapter 35 Special Ability (Part Two)

Hearing this made Flint hesitate. He knew that Rocky was only at the second grade of the Mortal Stage. He was afraid that Rocky wouldn't be able to take his attack if he launched a third grade attack.

"Come on! No hesitation and hit me with it!" Rocky knew what Flint was worried about so he tried to motivate him into fulfilling his request.

Flint's brows knitted together. He then began channeling his dragon spiritual power to his palm. Obviously, this one was much stronger than the previous two. The icy aura was even more visible this time as the air around his palm began to freeze.

"Be careful!" Flint reminded him. He was still worried that his third grade attack possibly hurt Rocky. The moment he launched his attack, an icy aura flashed in the air with a strong and cold wind that could freeze whatever it touched.

The palm attack arrived in front of Rocky in only a matter of seconds.

Rocky had already prepared himself. He then activated all of his dragon spiritual power to withstand the palm attack. At the exact moment the two forces clashed, and a bright ray of dazzling light appeared. "Bang!" Rocky was pushed a few steps back by the forceful impact as he covered his aching chest.

Although his dragon spiritual power was able to absorb Flint's attack, he was also hit by the attack. Now, he was beginning to understand the limits of the absorbing capabilities of his dragon spiritual power. Whenever his opponent surpassed the spiritual energy he could produce, the absorbing capacity would have more trouble taking the attack. The bigger the gap between him and his opponent, the more forceful the impact could be.

Rocky was delighted to know that he was right about himself even though he was slightly injured by the experiment. Although he still didn't know what the quality of his dragon spiritual power was, he now learned more about its special ability.

"Are you alright?" Flint drew back his dragon spiritual power and walked towards Rocky as fast as he could.

"Yes! I'm fine! Don't worry about it. Thanks a lot, man! It was a huge help," Rocky smiled.

Flint nodded at Rocky. He was obviously stunned by Rocky. He could not understand how his spiritual power disappeared as soon as it touched Rocky's. He was wondering how Rocky was able to withstand his attack. But he didn't speak of it anymore. He was not that kind of man who had such interest in others. He just walked back to his Cloud Tiger and left with it.

Rocky had his dinner earlier than the others that night. He then took Uriah to the bamboo grove and walked to the pond as usual. He collected three drops of the magical saliva from Uriah's mouth and then took out the yellow spiritual crystal to feed Uriah. Uriah roared in excitement as it saw the yellow spiritual crystal.

"Hush! Easy there, little guy!" Rocky gestured for Uriah to keep quiet. He then looked at the yellow spiritual crystal while saying, "General Beauty said that a red spiritual crystal can help a one-star war beast upgrade to the next level. But Uriah had not even reached the one-star level yet. Would it be a waste to give it the crystal?"

It seemed that Uriah understood what Rocky was talking about so it groaned angrily as if it was protesting against Rocky's doubts.

Rocky laughed and shook his head. He then stroked Uriah's little head and said, "All right! You can have it. After all, it's a gift from General Beauty herself. Here you go. I'm not going to deprive you of that. I still need the magical saliva from you to accelerate my cultivation." He then placed the yellow spiritual crystal right in front of Uriah. As soon as Rocky put it down, Uriah immediately went for the yellow spiritual crystal. It seemed that it was afraid that Rocky would change his mind and take the spiritual crystal back.

Rocky laughed and left it to eat. He mixed a drop of magical saliva with water and drank it up. After he was done with that, he closed his eyes to begin his cultivation.

But after a while, he heard weird cries coming from Uriah. When he opened his eyes, he was greeted with Uriah trembling in pain and rolling its eyes.

"What's happening? Are you sick?" Rocky immediately embraced Uriah to feel its temperature. As soon as he touched its forehead, he was almost scorched by Uriah's heat. Rocky was caught by surprise.

Meanwhile, he could feel the spiritual power in Uriah's body bursting out as if it was a container that could no longer hold what was in it.

"Could this be due to the yellow spiritual crystal?" Rocky thought about it and was immediately panicked. He then remembered that he shouldn't have given Uriah the yellow spiritual crystal in the first place. Marcia once said that a red spiritual crystal could upgrade a one-star war beast to the next level, not mention a yellow spiritual crystal. Yellow spiritual crystals had much more spiritual power than the red ones. But Uriah was a beast whose star rating was under the one-star level. Obviously, it was too much for Uriah to consume a whole yellow spiritual crystal.

Although he had figured out the reason, he didn't know how to help Uriah get rid of the pain. Subconsciously, he took Uriah into the pond and hoped the cold water would be able to help. However, Uriah's temperature just kept rising. The spiritual power overflowing from it grew stronger and stronger. If this situation was to keep going, Uriah would soon die of his own overwhelming spiritual power.

"What should I do now?" A lot of ideas flashed in his head but without the help of modern technology, none of them was feasible.

At that very moment, Rocky suddenly felt something on his left arm where Uriah was leaning on. He felt intense heat as faint streaks appeared around his left arm. It seemed that his Dragon Spirit Mark was

activated by the spiritual power from Uriah. He was suddenly reminded of the absorbing capabilities of his dragon spiritual power.

Uriah leaned its head towards Rocky's left hand as it looked at him with its innocent eyes. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Rocky concentrated and began to channel his dragon spiritual power to his palm which he then placed on Uriah's forehead. All of a sudden, Uriah's strong spiritual power was flowing into his left arm. Dazzling light was flashing around his arm within a matter of seconds. The strong spiritual power was spreading inside his body as Rocky was struggling to take in the forceful energy. The pain almost killed him.

"Ah! Ah!" Rocky yelled out in pain. He had underestimated the spiritual power. How was he supposed to know that a little crystal could contain such powerful spiritual power? No wonder the spiritual crystals were considered priceless treasures in the Wild Spirit Land. And the spiritual power of the yellow spiritual crystal was different from what Rocky had seen before. It was much more wild and violent. It was like thousands of beasts were flowing inside his body and the pain was far beyond the normal humans' threshold.
