"So, what's the bloody chaos of the Wild Spirit Land you just mentioned?" Rocky asked
straightforwardly.
"These nine spiritual treasures are immensely powerful as they can turn living things into ashes. Their
strong power is the reason why the nine powerful warriors from different clans of spiritual race who
owned them were afraid that these treasures would be used for battles among the different clans. So,
they agreed to seal them in nine different places in the Wild Spirit Land. They also used their own
power to set up the enchanted barriers that any clan of spiritual race could not enter. The warriors did
everything in their power to protect the treasures and prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.
However, the nine powerful warriors also had their own motives. So, they allowed humans to set foot in
the places where the spiritual treasures were sealed in anticipation that when their clans needed the
help of the spiritual treasures someday, the humans would know where to find it," Lena explained.
Rocky was dumbfounded when he heard her explanation.
"However, the spiritual race is also afraid of the power of the spiritual treasures, so they won't take out
them unless they really need to. Once the spiritual treasures are taken out, the restriction on the
different clans will be broken. This means that the nine spiritual treasures will reappear in the world. If a
spiritual treasure appeared, the other clans who had the spiritual treasures would surely try to take
them. The reason why the Dragon Master Clan wants this spiritual treasure in front of you is because
this is the Sunrise Magic Dragon Bow owned by the Dragon Master Clan. It was originally sealed in
another place, but it was taken back to the Holy Dragon Empire and was sealed in this royal forbidden
area," Lena continued.
"So, you mean all the clans of spiritual race in the Wild Spirit Land are searching for spiritual treasures
to protect themselves. But there are only nine spiritual treasures, and the number of clans searching for
the treasures is far more than that. And other clans that didn't own spiritual treasures are looking for
it..." Rocky said doubtfully, getting more confused by the minute.
"Well, that's normal. Back then, the nine clans of spiritual race with the nine spiritual treasures were the
strongest among all the clans, which included the Butterfly Divine Clan, the Dragon Master Clan, the
Phoenix Master Clan, the Wood Clan and so on. As time went by, the nine clans, like the Butterfly
Divine Clan, faced inevitable challenges to become extinct. Over the years, some clans among the nine
became weaker while there were also other clans that became stronger. So inevitably those spiritual
race clans that didn't own the spiritual treasures wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to take
one of the spiritual treasures and use it to secure a place among the powerful clans," Lena explained
further.
"You sure do know a lot. Who on earth are you?" Rocky could not help but ask again when he found
out that the mysterious person attached to Lena knew so much and explained to him every piece of
information.
However, Rocky suddenly felt a strong burning sensation in his chest. Then, the figure of the Dragon-
shaped Soul Beast suddenly appeared on the dragon-shaped jade on his chest.
"Is that really you?" the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast deeply looked at Lena and asked.
When Lena saw the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast appearing on Rocky's chest, she was astounded and
shouted, "Why are you with this young man?"
"It really is you, my old friend. He has taken over your unfinished mission," the Dragon-shaped Soul
Beast said in a deep and ethereal voice.
When she heard this, a smile appeared on Lena's face and she said, "I see. I see. Well, it seems that it
is not a coincidence that you can enter here as someone else other than the emperor! It must be fate. I
am really relieved. Even if the nine spiritual treasures are truly gathered already, there is still a glimmer
of hope."
"Wait, are you the Witch that appeared in my memory?" When he saw that the Dragon-shaped Soul
Beast knew the mysterious person attached to Lena, Rocky immediately had that thought in mind.
"You are really smart indeed." Lena glanced at Rocky and continued, "If you want to know everything
about the spiritual race, you only need to find the blood essence of the nine legendary guardian beasts
to unlock all the memories. If you do that, you will perfectly understand everything. Of course, it would
be the best if you could prevent the nine spiritual treasures from being gathered. In that case, you can
take your time in collecting the blood essence of the nine legendary guardian beasts. Your lone mission
is to protect the Holy Dragon Empire and avoid the disputes among the different clans of spiritual race
in the entire Wild Spirit Land. This is also the duty of the Holy Dragon Empire's Witches. If you fail to
carry out the mission, the prophecy of the first Witch will come true."
When she said the last sentence, Lena looked profoundly serious.
"The prophecy? What kind of prophecy?" Rocky asked immediately.
"Total darkness and complete destruction," Lena said in an exceptionally low voice.
"Huh? Darkness and destruction? What do you mean by that?" Rocky was stunned at what he heard.
He wanted to ask more, but Lena's body suddenly softened, so he immediately hugged her.
"What did she mean by that, old man?" Rocky asked the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast immediately. He
knew that the latter probably had a clue about what she meant.
"You will know when the time is right." Then the Dragon-shaped Soul Beast suddenly flew back into the
jade.
"Everything that they're saying is so vague. Can't they make it clearer?" Rocky complained to himself.
But at least he finally knew some of the history and secrets behind the spiritual treasures. However,
there were still many questions that were unanswered. What was the Divine Spiritual Source? How
could it have the power to create the nine powerful spiritual treasures and the nine legendary guardian
beasts? Besides that, he still wondered whether the remains of the spiritual race that he saw in the
Myriad Spirit Tomb were related to it or not.
However, what worried him most was what the Witch said that if all nine spiritual treasures were
gathered, something terrible would happen.
While he was lost in all kinds of thought, Lena woke up.
"Basil, what happened just now? I can't remember." Lena asked when she found herself lying in
Rocky's arms.
"Not that much. You passed out suddenly." Rocky thought for a while and shook his head. He thought it
was best not to tell anyone about the information he just heard.
"Really? How can this be?" Lena rubbed her temples in confusion.
"Maybe it's the influence of the royal forbidden area..." Rocky guessed. "I'll get the spiritual treasure
first."
"Isn't it dangerous?" Lena asked worriedly.
"I don't think it would be dangerous." Rocky thought that the spiritual treasure should be safe in the
royal forbidden area, so it didn't need any kind of protection.
So, Rocky walked towards the Sunrise Magic Dragon Bow that was floating at the center of the top
platform. He paused for a moment then reached out his hand.
