The Medallion

Chapter 46 Awakening

"You hit me really hard!" Rocky said the moment he regained his balance. He touched his chest and felt numb.

"If you were in a battlefield, you had already been dead. Remember that you must never let your guard down regardless of the strength of your opponents. If you get cocky, you die," Mia reminded him.

"What do you call that move?" Rocky figured that he might as well get something out of the pain it caused.

"They are called the Illusionary Palm. Deity Finger and Illusionary Palm are both from a branch called the "Illusion Technique" in the field of spiritual martial arts. You can practice it once you make it to the third grade of the Mysterious Dragon Skill. This is the only spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan that could utilize the dragon spiritual power without any of the nature being shown. No one ever studies this kind of spiritual martial arts anymore. As far as I know, I am the only one who....." Mia stopped talking before revealing any more information.

"Wouldn't that be just suitable for me?" Rocky had a weird feeling that Mia was deliberately demonstrating spiritual martial arts in front of him. She probably didn't know that he was at the fifth grade of the Mysterious Dragon Skill. 'Was all this intentional or just random?' Rocky thought to himself.

"If you ever make it to the third grade with your Mysterious Dragon Skill, I will teach you more from the spiritual martial arts," said Mia.

"Is she trying to motivate me by showing me the power of the spiritual martial arts?" Rocky had a discovery that Mia was trying to motivate him with the spiritual martial arts. He never thought that Mia would ever have such concern for him. Maybe she was not as bad as he thought she was.

"What the hell are you talking about? I could seriously kill you if I wanted to." Mia suddenly turned stern. She had indeed been trying to be nice to him but he ruined it by getting cocky. She appeared in

front of Rocky in a flash. She was so furious that she bombarded Rocky with a storm of kicks and punches.

The result was not surprising at all.

About an hour later, Rocky was standing there covered in bruises as he panted heavily and could barely hold himself together. Mia didn't even break a sweat compared to him and it clearly showed the gap in their strength.

Mia never thought Rocky could withstand her attacks for an hour. Although she had brought her power to the third grade of the Mortal Stage, she held nothing back with Rocky as every punch landed flat on him. She could tell that Rocky had a hell of a backbone. Had her opponent been an ordinary person, he or she would've begged for mercy long time ago. However, she could see in Rocky's eyes that he had no plans of giving up.

"That should be it for today," Mia said coldly as she turned to leave.

Rocky could no longer keep it together and collapsed right after Mia left him. He cursed, "This woman was obviously holding a grudge against me and just took it all out on me. What was her problem? Was she on her period? But after all, at least I was able to learn some moves from the spiritual martial arts and it was all worth it."

As Rocky could not even stand, he just wrapped up his training early and dragged his broken body back to his room. The moment he entered his room, he saw Uriah sound asleep on his bed without a care for anything happening around him.

"Time to get up lazybones. I need you to heal me." Rocky woke Uriah up and collapsed right on top of it.

Uriah woke up to see its master all bruised up. It immediately started to lick his wounds to help him recover. Although Rocky could just drink the magical saliva to heal his wounds, he didn't have enough energy to do anything after the beating Mia gave him. He just wanted to rest as he enjoyed the massage from Uriah's tongue. Unhygienic as it was, he still felt very comfortable.

It got dark pretty soon. Rocky borrowed Cloud Tiger after dinner and took it out to the depths of the Bamboo grove. He wanted to use Uriah to stimulate the potential of the Cloud Tiger but the results weren't as he expected.

'Although there were many ways to achieve its full potential, it was still not enough with our current method due to the lack of support and proper equipment. I have to try something more dramatic, ' Rocky thought as he watched Uriah heal Could Tiger with its saliva after a battle between the two of them.

An idea suddenly came to him. 'That's it! It might be a bit risky, but I'm sure it will work.' He thought to himself.

Another night went by.

After another day of brutal training with Mia, Rocky went back to his room and left a message to Flint beforehand asking him to head to the bamboo grove.

Flint saw the message left by Rocky and it read "Please bring the Cloud Tiger to the bamboo grove". He looked confused as he wondered what he was up to and why he did not just take it himself. Odd as it seemed, Flint still brought the Cloud Tiger to the bamboo grove to meet Rocky.

Flint got the feeling that he was being watched the second he set foot inside the bamboo grove. It felt as if he was about to be ambushed so he looked around cautiously.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Suddenly a shadow quickly charged towards Flint from the dark. Could Tiger immediately stepped up to protect its master. However the opponent was too powerful that it blew Cloud Tiger into the air. It then turned to Flint with its sharp claw that was full of power.

Despite the fact that it happened out of blue, Flint remained calm as the Dragon Spirit Mark on his arm began to shine. Freezing air permeated the entire area, and an ice sword materialized out of nothing. It came swooping through the air and took the fearsome hit from the claw! But the owner of the claw was too powerful as it kept pressing the sword towards Flint.

Just as Flint wanted to draw back because he could no longer hold it, a shadow dart shot forward about three meters away from him. Flint had no time to respond given the short distance while being suppressed at the same time.

The Cloud Tiger, which was unable to make it to its master in time, roared in anger. Roaring was not going to help its master now.

At that instance, the shadow dart just closed in on Flint with great force. If Flint was to be hit directly, he would probably die. However, there was nothing Flint could do as he watched it unfold right before his eyes. His face was covered in despair at the thought of dying right then and there.

At that very moment, it happened.

Just as the shadow dart was less than an inch away from Flint, an ice claw like a blade swooped through the air and clashed with it, causing a small explosion with a huge bang and sparks.

Flint couldn't help turning towards the direction where the ice claw came from. It was where the Cloud Tiger was. He never knew that his Cloud Tiger was capable of anything like it.

Meanwhile, the being that was suppressing Flint pulled back and stopped the attack.

There came the sound of hands clapping. A round of applause erupted around him.
