The Medallion

Chapter 53 Enhancing Rapidly (Part One)

"It doesn't have any nature," Rocky answered.

"That's not possible. Give me your hand," Marcia doubted what he said so she grabbed Rocky's hand at once before he could even react. Meanwhile, she sent some of her spiritual power into Rocky's body.

"Eh? It really doesn't have any nature. Also, it seems that you..." Marcia suddenly put on an evil smile as if she had found Rocky's secret, but she soon solemnly said again, "How could it have no nature? It is way different from the recordation of the Dragon Master Clan." She seemed to have been looking for something in the Magic Spiritual Space from where she then took out a book from and said, "This Vast Nebula Skill is at the Earthly Stage and whose power has no nature. Though it isn't the spiritual method of the Dragon Master Clan, it is created by a powerful royal spirit manipulator."

"How powerful was he?" Rocky asked.

"I will tell you once you succeed in mastering this skill. But you have to raise your power up to the Earthly Stage before you could begin practicing this skill. Even if you could cultivate at a high speed, you would still need to cultivate for at least one year before you can reach the Earthly Stage. So you have to be very patient," Marcia said with a snort.

"I'm afraid I cannot wait for that long," Rocky said worriedly.

"The Vast Nebula Skill not only contains the formula of the spiritual method, but also the complementary spiritual martial arts that comes with them. It is a very precious skill, so don't lose it no matter what happens," Marcia warned Rocky as she passed the Vast Nebula Skill to him.

"Why are you suddenly being so nice to me?" Rocky asked as soon as he took the Vast Nebula Skill. He had been quite suspicious of Marcia's recent behavior, but since she gave him these things for free, he accepted them all.

"Well. It is because I don't like taking others' things for free. So you can take this as payment for your miracle liquid. After all, I am no longer in need of any of these things," Marcia hesitated for a while before she could reply. It was actually all an excuse. She was nice to him because she wanted to use Rocky's power of the Holy Dragon Bead. Besides, she had been feeling something strange towards Rocky. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Rocky could tell that Marcia was very secretive and he knew that she would not tell him the truth so he decided not to bother asking her again. He didn't believe that pennies could fall from the heaven.

"I should be leaving," Marcia felt awkward to stay longer in the room with Rocky alone. Although Uriah was also there, she was still getting ready to leave.

"General Gorgeous. Where could I see you again?" Rocky hesitated for a few seconds before he stopped her to ask.

"See me again? Why would you need to see me again?" Marcia asked in confusion.

"If I get my hands on more miracle liquid, I could send some to you," Rocky showed her that he could also make up creative excuses to see her.

"I guess I could ask someone else to... No. No one else is allowed to know about this." Marcia was going to say that she would just ask someone else to take it, but she thought that it would be very inappropriate. After considering for a while, she took out the delicate dagger with a sheath that she used the last time when she tried to kill Rocky.

"You can take my Frozen Wind Dagger. Whenever you want to see me, you can come to my general's mansion with it. There is a unique Snowflake Mark on the Frozen Wind Dagger which cannot be copied by others. It represents me and only me. My guardians will recognize it the moment you show it to them. Besides, the Frozen Wind Dagger is made up of a bone which belonged to a dragon that had lived for a millennium. It can greatly strengthen your spiritual power. You may also use it to save your

life when necessary." Marcia threw the Frozen Wind Dagger towards Rocky. She then disappeared in a flash.

Looking at the sheath decorated with gems, Rocky pulled the dagger out if it. The dagger immediately emitted a chilling and dazzling energy.

"It was certainly a good deal to exchange two bottles of magical saliva for so many precious things," Rocky murmured excitedly as he looked at the spiritual power gathering crystal and three yellow spiritual crystals in his left hand, and the Vast Nebula Skill and the Frozen Wind in his right hand. Every one of these treasures weren't easy for any spirit manipulator to get, but he acquired them all in one breath.

But as the old saying goes, "Don't show your valuables." Rocky put away the spiritual power gathering crystal and the three yellow spiritual crystals with the Frozen Wind Dagger. He then read through the Vast Nebula Skill and burned the whole book using his spiritual power after he memorized every word written inside it.

Rocky heard people talking outside his room after he just arranged everything discreetly. He immediately opened his door and saw a group of men crowded in front of the door of his room. Some of them even fell on the ground as he opened the door.

"What are you doing here?" Rocky asked them as he stared at them angrily with his arms crossed.

Seeing that Rocky was angered, these trainees all scattered at once.

At that time, Flint also came back. He gave Rocky a strange look as he asked, "Do you know General Marcia?"

"No, I don't. Why, what's it to you?" Rocky answered while shaking his head.

"Then why would she ask for you specifically to show her around? Everyone was talking about it," Flint said.

"I don't know, I absolutely have no idea. Did she leave yet?" Rocky asked innocently.

"Yes, she just did," Flint replied as he warned him, "You should watch yourself for the next few days. I'm afraid that someone may give you trouble because of this."

"Well. I don't really care. If they do give me trouble, I will just ask Uriah to 'play' with them," Rocky said disdainfully. He then seemed to suddenly think about something so he asked Flint, "Do you have anything like... maybe small bags? Would you mind if I borrowed one?"

Flint went towards his bed and searched for something. After a while, he took out a palm-sized silk bag and threw it at Rocky. Rocky saw there was a word 'Ji', Flint's surname, embroidered on the silk red bag. It had a golden mark which looked like an emblem on it.

"Flint, you must have come from a very rich family. This bag looks very beautiful, as if it was made very delicately," Rocky couldn't help but guess. This was the first time that he asked about Flint's background.

Flint glanced at Rocky before he left with his Cloud Tiger without saying a word.

"Humph. He probably thinks he was so cool for doing that," Rocky snorted as he put the spiritual power gathering crystal and the yellow spiritual crystals into the silk bag Flint lent him. He then went to the bamboo grove with Uriah.

Because Rocky had just got the spiritual power gathering crystal, he was eager to try some experiments. Though it was still daytime and he could be easily seen by other people, he couldn't help but hunker down beside the pond as he held the spiritual power gathering crystal in his left hand. He

was not sure how much magic the spiritual power gathering crystal had in it so he did not take the magical saliva first.
