The Medallion

Chapter 254 Last Chance Of Survival (Part One)

Rocky had already taken the three treasures, when the people of the Timber Deity Empire were desperately looking for them. The Roaring Flame Empire had planned to offer them as a tribute to the Timber Deity Empire, as the two Empires had secretly formed an alliance. Therefore, it was imperative for the Timber Deity Empire to find them. Because, once their common enemy, the Holy Dragon Empire, found out about the three treasures, their secret alliance would be exposed. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not find them, because, a huge beast had swallowed Rocky along with the treasures, and the people of the Timber Deity Empire could never imagine that they should look inside the creature. Rocky, who was inside the gargantuan animal had no idea that he possessed three top-secret treasures. Neither did he know that so many people were looking for them desperately. He did not care what others were doing at that moment, for he had more pressing matters to deal with.

After briefly travelling in the enormous creature's dark inside, Rocky landed in a sticky place that smelt rotten, but strangely, he felt that he had returned to his mother's womb. To be more specific, he was right inside the spirit-manipulated beast's stomach.

Rocky kept activating the spiritual light in his palm, which soon illuminated the creature's stomach. That was when Rocky saw that the beast's stomach was like a small two-meter long room that kept extending forward. He carefully looked around and found all kinds of undigested garbage there, which included the white and scary bones of humans and beasts.

"Am I in the spirit-manipulated beast's stomach? If I am, then I am in serious trouble!" Rocky said to himself. Now that he had understood the gravity of the situation, he regretted having been greedy for the treasures. Had he known that he would get trapped in the beast's innards, he would have never followed the Rainbow Glow Unicorn. Although he did succeed in finding what he desired, he was also 'buried' in the beast's stomach, and did not know how to save himself. The thought of getting digested once the acids flowed in disturbed him. Were that to happen, all he had done would be in vain.

Rocky knew that he could be digested any time, so he could not sit still and wait for his death. Then, without wasting time, he took out his Frozen Wind Dagger and poked the stomach wall with great force a few times. But it was to no effect because the Frozen Wind Dagger twisted and turned every time when Rocky poked the stomach wall with it. Soon, he realized that what he was poking was extremely flexible, and even the sharp Frozen Wind Dagger was unable to cut through it. Now, it seemed that the only way he could get out of the beast's stomach was if the spirit-manipulated beast were to spit him out.

Just then, suddenly Rocky felt that there was some kind of strong spiritual power somewhere in front of him. So, he immediately stood up and walked to the farthest place in the stomach, where he found a small space that was filled with spider's web-like slender white flesh threads. He then saw that one end of those white flesh threads was connected with the surrounding flesh wall, while the other was connected to a dwarf-sized cocoon-like object. More precisely, it was like a pillar that was made of meat and reminded him of a sausage. Strangely, the strong spiritual power that he sensed was coming from the flesh pillar.

Rocky was intrigued when he saw the flesh pillar. After inspecting it carefully a few times, he found that something in it seemed to be constantly flashing. Immediately, he wondered if the spiritual source of the spirit-manipulated beast was hidden in that.

And if that were the case, he could definitely seriously injure it and cause some serious damage by destroying its spiritual source. If he could succeed in doing that, then, the spirit-manipulated beast would be grievously hurt and he might be able to get out of its stomach then. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

After that, Rocky was quick to act. Taking out his Frozen Wind Dagger, he waved it toward the flesh pillar. Meanwhile, he also applied his power at the Earthly Stage's third grade. As a result, his Dagger was transformed into an arc blade, with which he attacked the flesh pillar with all his might. In the very next second, Rocky saw that the flesh pillar suddenly produced spiritual power, which resembled the

sound of electricity, cracking. To his dismay, a slight flash that emanated from it directly diminished his arc blade's power.

"So, it even has the ability to protect itself, does it?" Rocky mumbled. Never in his wildest dreams could Rocky have anticipated that the spirit-manipulated beast's spiritual source could perform such a strong function. It could not only provide the energies the beast needed, but it could also protect itself.

Nevertheless, he did not give up. After all, it was a matter of life or death for him. After Rocky had attacked the spiritual source several times, the result was the same. Thus, he accepted that his efforts would not help him escape, nor weaken the creature, as it was much stronger than he was. Its strength was at least that of a beast who was at the third grade of the three-star level.

"If only I can figure out another way to get out of here," Rocky said helplessly. Just as Rocky was about to give up and wander elsewhere, he abruptly spotted that the flesh threads that were attached to the flesh wall were detaching themselves, and were moving out of the wall as if they had become alive. Then, they were creeping and squirming in the air, and finally, all of them rushed toward him.

Rocky saw and recognized that it was an emergency and that the situation could become extremely dangerous and life-threatening for him. However, as he could not retreat now, he hurriedly waved the Frozen Wind Dagger and released his spiritual power to resist the flesh threads. But two white flesh threads quickly entangled themselves with the hand with which he was holding the Frozen Wind Dagger. Anxious to destroy them by using the spiritual martial arts with his free hand, he raised it, but unfortunately, found that more flesh threads had already tied it securely.
