The Medallion Chapter 1173 Two Beast Statues

Rocky and the women accompanying him walked along the gloomy passage. At first, their
surroundings were quite peaceful, but after about thirty minutes of walking, they immediately felt that
the temperature suddenly dropped as if they were in a deep cellar underground. Even though they
were protected by the spiritual energy, the chilling air still permeated in their skin.

"What is with this place? It feels so horrifying," Lena said with a frown as her body started shivering.

Then, suddenly, a burst of ghostly cries came from the depths of the passage.

Rocky and the women couldn't help but look at each other, surprised at what they just heard. However,
they just kept walking until they arrived at the end of the passage. They stopped in their tracks and
were shocked as they looked around.

What welcomed them was a spacious and strange room without a definite purpose. On the other end of
the room, they saw that there was a road leading towards the depths of the forbidden area. However,
they soon noticed that more than ten misty white souls, like shadowy fogs, wandered around and
occupied the room. They perceived that these souls emitted strong auras that were at least equivalent
to the masters at the Supernal Stage. Furthermore, they also possessed a vicious aura of hostility,
making them unable to move freely. Then, they realized that these souls must the ghosts of the
Butterfly Divine Clan that Kayla had mentioned before.

As a result, they stopped at the entrance of the room and didn't dare to move forward.

"What should we do now?" All the women looked at Rocky and waited for his decision.

"It looks dangerous. You have to wait here first while I go and take a look. Once everything is clear, you
can follow me," Rocky said after thinking for a while. He then pulled out the Frozen Wind Dagger and
rushed inside the room.



However, the moment Rocky stepped into the room, the souls of the Butterfly Divine Clan seemed to
be infuriated by the presence of a stranger. They immediately let out sharp cries and dashed towards
him. Their faces were like demons that would haunt every living soul. They swarmed towards Rocky as
if they were going to devour him whole.

As he saw the fast-approaching ghosts, Rocky immediately waved the Frozen Wind Dagger and
slashed several Moon Blades to resist them. However, to his surprise, the Moon Blades just passed
right through them and didn't seem to take any damage at all. He clearly saw that the souls were still
rushing towards him at an incredible speed.

Rocky was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect that the Moon Blades would be rendered ineffective
against them. With his quick-thinking, he decided to use the Hexagonal Netting Dragon Ring and
spread out the light barrier around him. However, the ferocious ghosts still ignored and just passed
through the light barrier that he had set up.

"Basil, watch out!" the women couldn't help calling out to Rocky as they saw that he was being chased
down by more than ten of the fiendish-looking souls.

There was a frown on Rocky's face, as he was disappointed that even the light barrier didn't hinder
them. Fortunately, his reflexes and movement skills were at a high level.

Just as the souls were able to make contact with his body, Rocky instantly disappeared from where he
was standing and was able to return to the room's entrance, where the women were, in the blink of an
eye.

As the women saw that Rocky was able to come back to their side, they breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"This is tough. The souls of the Butterfly Divine Clan are so difficult to deal with! We won't be able to
move forward like this," Rocky said in frustration, clenching his fists.



"It seems that it's useless to break in by force. It will be more problematic if we are possessed by
them," Lena remarked as she analyzed the situation.

"You're right. It seems like we can't do anything to guard against them. So what are we going to do to
pass through the room?" Sabina grumbled as she put her hands on her waist.

"I think I know a way. I can use the Dragon Master Clan's secret skill to suppress these souls. But I will
need to remain here in order to perform it. You guys go ahead while I prevent them from rushing
towards you," Lena finally said after hesitating for a while.

Rocky and the other women immediately showed expressions of disapproval on their faces the
moment they heard Lena's suggestion.

"What? No! We can't leave you alone. That's too dangerous!" Isis strongly objected. After all, Lena was
the Witch of the Holy Dragon Empire. If anything bad happened to her, it would be a great loss to the
empire.

"I will be okay. I can suppress them for a few hours with my strength. I should be fine within that time.
Remember our purpose for coming here. We need to assist Basil in acquiring the spiritual treasure.
While I stay here restraining them, that should give you enough time to fulfill the mission," Lena
insisted.

"How about I accompany Lena? After all, I won't be much of a help. The rest of you can go with Rocky
and continue searching for the spiritual treasure," Sue suggested in order to come up with a
compromise.

"Basil, what do you think?" Isis asked while all of the other women also looked at Rocky.

"Why are you hesitating? Don't worry about me," Lena urged Rocky to agree already.



Rocky fell silent for a while, looking at Lena anxiously. However, he also knew that what she said was
right. Right now, it was their top priority to obtain the spiritual treasure. Otherwise, all their efforts of
coming to this place would be all for naught. Thus, left with no choice, he nodded and agreed.

Soon after, Lena stepped into the room. As soon as she entered, the souls of the Butterfly Divine Clan
gave the same response as before. They immediately rushed and attempted to pounce on her.

At the same time, a golden light suddenly shone from within Lena's body, and an extremely strong
spiritual power was instantly drawn, enveloping the entire room.

"Secret skill of the Dragon Master Clan—the Dragon Soul Suppressing!" Lena's hands crossed in front
of her chest. In a flash, the golden light that spread throughout the room instantly turned into golden
dragon shadows, binding the incoming souls in place and rendering them motionless.

"It's done. Go now," Lena instructed Rocky and the others as she sat in the middle of the room with her
legs crossed.

Immediately, Rocky and the rest passed through the room and reached the other end. Sue stayed in
the room and guarded Lena as she suppressed all the souls.

Then, Rocky and the others continued to move forward until they entered an aisle that seemed like a
long corridor. They still encountered some souls of the Butterfly Divine Clan, but they didn't move in
clusters and weren't aggressive, like the ones they faced earlier.

After they walked for a few hundred meters, two beast statues made of copper suddenly appeared in
front of them. They were several meters high and looked rather atrocious. Most of the aisle was
blocked, leaving only a gap wide enough for a single person to pass through.



However, just as when they were about to approach the statues of the two beasts, the whole corridor
began to tremble. The next moment, they noticed that the bodies and limbs of the beasts gradually
moved as if they were coming to life.

Then, suddenly, the huge eyes of the beast statues opened and flashed a strong radiance. They
opened their mouths and quickly spurted two beams of spiritual power with a diameter of dozens of
centimeters, aimed directly at the group.

Immediately sensing the danger, they quickly dodged sideways, clinging onto the stone walls beside
them. The two beams swept past where they previously stood, leaving two deep charred marks on the
ground.

Right after hurling the beams of light, the beasts began to move. They dashed towards the group, like
massive tanks that plowed the aisle. Since the beasts almost occupied the entire aisle, the beams of
light that constantly darted from their mouths made the situation even more dangerous. They didn't
have much space to get away from the beasts' attacks.

Fully aware of their situation, Sabina suddenly activated her ice shadow and rushed directly to the two
beast statues. As soon as the icy light rose, she immediately shouted, "Freeze!" Instantly, two streams
of icy spiritual power emerged from her arms and shot towards the beast statues at an incredible
speed.

Upon contact with the beast statues, the icy spiritual power instantly covered and froze them, sealing
their movements.

Rocky and the others were relieved to see that the two ferocious beasts finally stopped moving.

However, at that moment, they saw that the ice enveloping the beast statues was starting to break and
collapse. Soon after, the beast statues broke through, and they suddenly launched their fierce attacks
again.
