The Medallion

Chapter 1904 Open The Entrance

"When are you planning to cultivate in seclusion, Odin?" Gilbert asked when they got back to his mansion.

"If I don't have anything else to deal with, I'll probably go in the next couple of days," Rocky replied auspiciously. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I see. Let me take care of those things for you, so you can go cultivate at ease," Gilbert offered.

Rocky smiled and nodded in appreciation, then gestured for Valeria to leave the mansion with him.

"Are we really going to cultivate in seclusion?" Valeria whispered after making sure that no one was around to hear them.

"I said that just as an excuse. I actually want to take you to the human race." Rocky smiled as he revealed to her his real intention.

"Really? We're going to the human race?" she exclaimed in disbelief.

"That's right. If you want to improve your strength in no time, cultivating in seclusion won't be enough. You must go through an adventure, and there's naturally no other better place for that than the Holy Heaven Palace. I plan to arrange a trip for you and Gloria to go there," Rocky elaborated.

"Wait. I'm going with Gloria?" The moment Valeria heard Gloria's name, her face looked petulant since they both liked Rocky. Nonetheless, knowing that Rocky had his own reasons, she didn't argue. Instead, she gently asked, "What about you, though?"

"Well, I don't need it, and there are other things I have to do." Rocky wanted to take this chance to deal with other important matters, so he did not have the time to go to the Holy Heaven Palace to cultivate with them.

"Alright, then. If you say so!"

After Valeria left, Rocky sent a Carrier Beast to inform Eunice, who was at the border, so she could relay his plan to Colton and ask him to make some arrangements.

Shortly after, Gloria came in a hurry, looking all pouty. Without further ado, she anxiously asked, "Are you really going to cultivate in seclusion with that woman?" She seemed green with envy.

"Why? Are you jealous?" Rocky was certain that Gloria would come to him as soon as she heard about it.

"Of course, I am!" She had no problem admitting that fact.

"Actually, you're going with her. It's you and Valeria who need to cultivate in seclusion," Rocky replied with a charming smile.

"Seriously? The two of us?" Gloria was stunned when she heard it.

"That's right. I'll arrange for the two of you to cultivate in seclusion in the Holy Heaven Palace," Rocky explained honestly.

"Oh, alright. Aren't you coming, too?" Gloria was having a hard time believing it. After all, this was the first time that Rocky had taken the initiative to do something for her.

"Well, I don't need it. Right now, you have to focus on improving your strength as soon as possible," Rocky added.

"Alright! Thank you. When are we going there?" Gloria asked cheerfully.

"Tomorrow. Tell Princess Layla about it when you get back, but skip the part about going to the human race." Rocky made sure to remind her.

"Understood!" Gloria nodded and happily went on her way.

After seeing Gloria leave, Rocky went to find Vivian. He needed to ask for her help for what he needed to do next.

"Would you like to go to the spiritual race with me, Vivian?" The second Rocky found her, he didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"The spiritual race? For what?" Vivian asked as she glanced at Rocky with a puzzled face.

"We'll go on an adventure!" Rocky grinned.

"That's it? Boring!" Vivian couldn't help but roll her eyes at Rocky.

"I'm serious! I was planning to go there alone, but it's pretty dangerous where I'm going. That's why I asked if you'd want to come with me," Rocky explained.

"Where are we going, then?"

"We're going to the Ethereal Valley of the spiritual race!" Rocky added, trying to sound more convincing.

"The Ethereal Valley? Are you kidding? That's the sacred place of the spiritual race!" When Vivian heard where they were going, she was shocked. It was said that the Ethereal Valley was the birthplace of the spiritual race, so it was regarded as their sacred place.

"That's exactly why I want you to come with me!" Rocky stressed.

"I guess I would have to go." Vivian sighed, knowing she could not refuse.

Rocky smiled and nodded, feeling glad that she would come around.

"Alright. I'll make some arrangements first before we set off."

"When you're done, go to the border of the spiritual race and wait for me. I will come to you after I send Valeria and Gloria to a place for cultivation."

Following his agreement with Vivian, Rocky went back to the Ghost Palace to prepare.

The next day, Rocky and Valeria left the leader's mansion and met with Gloria, who was waiting for them outside. The three of them left the Ghost Capital and headed for the border of the Shura Race.

At the border was a battlefield, where they passed through until they once again set foot on the land of the human race.

When they arrived, they were welcomed by this place that had experienced the destruction of the war. Clearly, it was virtually robbed of its peace. Everyone felt jittery. Fortunately, what was left of Zain's troops at the border not long ago had already retreated. Their absence had given the human race a chance to breathe.

However, this was only temporary. Until the current royal family of the Shura Race got completely replaced, the human race and the spiritual race would face all kinds of threats and dangers.

Meanwhile, the moment they reached the Ethereal Region, Rocky went straight to the Di Clan with Gloria and Valeria.

Since Colton had arranged everything well as soon as he received the news from Eunice, the three of them got to head directly to the entrance of the Holy Heaven Palace.

Apparently, Colton was waiting for them there.

"Hey, what's your relationship with the Di Clan? How come members of the Shura Race like us can enter the Holy Heaven Palace? It's incredible!" Gloria felt so curious that she could not help but ask

Rocky the question. After all, she didn't know much about him since she had no idea who he truly was.

"You'll find out later. Wait for me here," Rocky replied as he walked towards Colton alone.

"Chief Colton! It's been a while," Rocky greeted him as he cupped his hands.

"Good to finally see you again! It seems your strength has increased a lot compared to the last time we met." Colton sensed the change in Rocky's aura right away.

"Thank you for all your help this time, Chief Colton."

"It's the least I could do. If it weren't for you, the human race could not have stood a chance against the Shura Race. I heard they'd finally evacuated all their troops that were left at the border. You had something to do with that, didn't you?" Not long ago, Colton learned that that the army of the Shura Race on the human border had withdrawn. At that time, he was sure that it was Rocky's doing.

"Now that they're struggling to take care of themselves, they naturally can't care about the human race. They've got bigger fish to fry," Rocky commented, almost casually.

"Are you going to the Holy Heaven Palace with them?" Colton asked to change the topic of their conversation.

"No. I have to do something else, so I'll be setting out for the spiritual race," Rocky explained briefly.

"Oh? What will you be doing there?"

"Let's talk about it when I come back. Please take care of the two girls for me while I'm away." Rocky had been keeping things secret since he could not disclose anything at the moment.

"Sure. Leave it to me."

After his quick chat with Colton, Rocky signaled to Valeria and Gloria to come closer.

As they stood beside him, Rocky introduced them to Colton. "I'll leave you here. Chief Colton will take care of you while I'm gone."

"When will you be back?" Gloria asked in a soft voice.

"I don't know for sure yet. Just focus on your cultivation."

Rocky then waved goodbye as he watched Colton lead the two women into the entrance of the Holy Heaven Palace.

"I hope this time they can improve their strength smoothly," Rocky murmured to himself while he walked away from the entrance of the Holy Heaven Palace.

After taking his leave of the Di Clan, Rocky rode on Rubygon and fleetly went on their way.

In a couple of days, they reached the border of the spiritual race and met with Vivian, who was waiting for him.

"What do you plan to do in the Ethereal Valley?" Vivian asked.

"We're going to open another entrance to the Holy-Evil World."

"Another entrance?!"

"Yep. Back when I was in the Holy Heaven Palace, I met the strongest deity of the divine race. His name's Deacon, and he was also the first owner of the God-killing Sword. He asked me to find all three entrances to the Holy-Evil World, if possible. It's so I could protect the balance between that world and the Supreme Ether Land. The Holy Heaven Palace is one of the three entrances, and the spiritual race

and the Shura Race each have one, so that's three. The reason we're here right now is so I can take advantage of this opportunity to open the entrance in the Ethereal Valley."
