The Medallion

Chapter 55 Rocky's Lucky Charm

No one would have ever thought that the spiritual crystal could be used for the cultivation of the spiritual power. It was originally used for upgrading the star rating of spirit-manipulated beasts and it was something that people never thought to try. Rocky utilizing the spiritual crystal to accelerate his cultivation was a highly risky thing to do. After all, the spiritual power of the spiritual crystal was too much for humans to take. One could be injured or even die for even trying. It was a hard lesson that they learned from other's mistakes.

"Just take it easy. Don't swallow the whole piece," Rocky said as he placed the yellow spiritual crystal in front of Uriah.

Uriah grabbed the crystal and gave it a lick and it seemed like it had tasted something delicious. It suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the whole thing at once.

"Whoa, hey! I said take it easy!" Rocky exclaimed, rolling his eyes at Uriah.

Uriah grumbled in protest.

A few moments after swallowing the yellow spiritual crystal, Uriah began writhing in pain and Rocky felt a strong surge of spiritual power coming from it. The spiritual crystal had begun working. Rocky then relayed his dragon spiritual power to his left arm and placed it on Uriah's forehead. The Dragon Spirit Mark around his left arm stared to sparkle.

The moment the dragon spiritual power entered Uriah's body, the spiritual power that it obtained from the crystal immediately flowed to Rocky's arm. Rocky then felt as if an explosion was taking place inside his body, which made him tremble in pain.

Rocky took a deep breath and began cultivating grade six of the Mysterious Dragon Skill. He initially could not control the strong spiritual power that he absorbed from Uriah, but his dragon spiritual power

gradually began to assimilate the power and relayed it into his energy meridians. It was the same as the last time, but the only difference was that he did not pass out and he felt certain that it worked.

His dragon spiritual power acted like an energy converter, absorbing Uriah's spiritual power and then assimilating it into his body. It was basically magic.

The wild and violent spiritual power was now totally under Rocky's control. After the processing of his dragon spiritual power, the spiritual power was now circulating inside him and was flowing back into Uriah's body at the same time.

The spiritual flame in Rocky's elixir field changed as well. The flame that was originally a murky color now gave out a hint of red light, blending with the murky flames.

Rocky was a royal spirit manipulator. The color of one's spiritual flame depended on the nature of their dragon spiritual power. Everyone's spiritual flame had one single color, but Rocky's spiritual flame now had two. It was pretty much unheard of.

That only meant the dragon spiritual power he gained from the Holy Dragon Bead must have had something special about it.

However, Rocky was currently so engrossed in his cultivation that he did not notice the change in his spiritual flame.

The spiritual power from the crystal was something that was beyond what a human's body can take, and it was now circulating inside Rocky's energy meridians. Subsequently, a faint halo of light glowed around him. Once a spirit manipulator surpassed the Earthly Stage, a halo would glow around his or her body. The extent of its luminance indicated how strong a spirit manipulator was.

A powerful spirit manipulator like Marcia would be capable of controlling the spiritual power that the halo exerted. The halo could be as powerful as raging flames, making an area of about a hundred

meters around a spirit manipulator inaccessible.

In Rocky's case, his spiritual flame was in the process of forming. The glow of the halo around him signified that he was now closer to reaching the Earthly Stage, and the brighter his halo glowed, the closer he was to the Earthly Stage.

The halo looked like a bunch of fireflies as it glowed prominently inside the dark bamboo grove. It glowed until the break of dawn. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"I'm close to grade six of the Mortal Stage now," Rocky murmured as he slowly opened his eyes. He had advanced by leaps and bounds after just one night of cultivation. He had just reached grade five of the Mortal Stage a few days ago and now he was close to grade six. Such a great progress within a short period would definitely knock the wind down out of everyone in the Wild Spirit Land.

Rocky would have been ecstatic with joy and excitement by now, but he was calmer and cooler than before. He had realized that he had been taking his progress for granted. He was stunned when he first learned that his dragon spiritual power was out of the ordinary. Although the nature of his spiritual power was still undefined, it had the special capability of absorbing others' spiritual power. He was even further surprised when he found out that his spiritual power was able to assimilate others' spiritual power into his body.

It was not something that modern theory could explain, but Rocky felt that this special ability of his was one of a kind in the entire Wild Spirit Land and he believed that was capable of creating a miracle.

He might be the first and only spirit manipulator who had successfully used the spiritual crystal in cultivation, which was already a miracle in its own right.

This miracle was just the beginning.

After tasting the sweet benefits that the spiritual crystal brought to him, he couldn't possibly stop now. In the next two days, he tried cultivating with the help of the magical saliva along with the yellow spiritual crystal at the same time. He knew fairly well that it was another highly dangerous thing to do. However, he was quite satisfied with the outcome before, so it was a risk he was more than willing to take.

Rocky had reached grade seven of the Mortal Stage by the day before the Dragon Birth Festival arrived. Meanwhile, Uriah was now close to reaching the third grade of the three-star level, making it almost invincible against those war beasts at its same level.

"Only one yellow spiritual crystal left. I would be able to upgrade to grade eight of the Mortal Stage. It seems that I have to exchange the magical saliva for General Beauty's yellow spiritual crystals," Rocky contemplated. It would be impossible for him to get a hold of even one yellow spiritual crystal by himself. As he thought about it, he remembered Uriah was a great help in making all the progress that had been achieving possible. If not for Uriah's magical saliva, Rocky would have had no chance in saving Marcia out of danger.

Uriah was really Rocky's lucky charm.

All of a sudden, the bamboo leaves rustled.

Rocky turned around and saw a figure walking with a white tiger. It was Flint and his Cloud Tiger. After Rocky had triggered the Cloud Tiger's potential, he and Flint had been getting closer with each other. Every now and then, Flint would walk the Cloud Tiger around the bamboo grove.
