Chapter 1944 Great Pressure
Vivian placed her hands next to her on the ground and was about to push herself up when Rocky opened his eyes and said, "Don't move. The devil spirit's power caused a lot of damage to your body, especially to your meridians. It would be wise to not use your spiritual power for a while." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
"Ha! I'm not as weak as I look! Where is Alex?" Vivian asked, crossing her arms over her chest. She put up a facade of strength because she didn't want anyone to pity her.
"She is cultivating outside of the cave. Last night, I gave her a cultivation method that she can easily handle," Rocky replied casually.
"What? She's out there all alone? What were you thinking? What if something happened to her?" Vivian stared at Rocky with wide eyes.
"Settle down. She is a Spiritual Emperor at the peak stage, and she has a divine treasure that can summon the beast spirit. What could possibly harm her now?" Rocky responded, shaking his head as a smile spread on his face.
"You are right." Vivian had nearly forgotten that Alex had fused with a deity spirit like she had. Now, there weren't many warriors in the spiritual race that could face her and win.
Just as Vivian was about to say more, Alex stepped into the cave and interrupted her.
"You're awake!" As soon as Alex saw Vivian, she ran towards her.
Vivian tried to hold back her smile, but she couldn't.
"Alex, Vivian will need to rest at least three days before she could walk again. In that time, you should concentrate on your own cultivation," Rocky explained. After a short period of thought, he determined that it was not appropriate for them to head for the snow peak so soon. They had at least half a month left to stay in the Ethereal Valley, so there was time to rest.
"Okay. But before we go to our destination, can we meet Jeffrey and the others at the given location? I'm afraid that they will worry about us," Alex asked hesitantly.
"Okay." Rocky had no objection. Their companions were on the way to the snow peak, so stopping to meet them would make no difference in their path and waste no time.
Over the next three days, Alex focused on cultivating the Water Cultivation Method. It didn't take her long to reach the third stage.
Vivian spent time recovering under Rocky's careful treatment, and her injuries were healed much faster than she expected. At least fifty percent of her injuries were better.
Then, the three of them set off and headed towards Jeffrey and the other teams.
Ten days before the closure of the Ethereal Valley, they arrived at the agreed-upon location. However, they were surprised to see that Jeffrey's team and the other teams weren't there yet. Even the team led by Alex before was nowhere to be seen.
They decided to sit and wait.
Half a day passed, but no one from the Wankong Clan showed up. Instead, the Lingji Clan and the Xiayu clan arrived with their teams.
Ruth, who had been rescued by them in the past, had joined the Lingji Clan's team, and the Xiayu Clan's team was led by Abdullah.
The spirit warriors in the two teams stared at Rocky and the two ladies in shock. None of them had expected the three of them to arrive first.
When Ruth laid her eyes on Rocky, she smiled. She had been sure that Rocky would have been dead in the crystal palace. But he was alive!
Ruth walked up to the three of them under the watchful eyes of the public. "Nice to see my three saviors again!"
"Nice to see you too, Elder Ruth. I have a question for you. On your way here, did you see Jeffrey or any other spirit warriors from our Wankong Clan?" Alex asked in a worried voice.
"No, I didn't." Ruth shook her head. The truth was, she had joined her team very, very recently.
"That's not good. Why are Jeffrey and the others taking so long to get here?" Alex said, shaking her head. Worries filled her mind. She wondered if something had happened to Jeffrey and the other team.
Then, several teams arrived and walked towards them, but their companions were not with them.
After waiting for another few hours, Jeffrey and the other team were still missing. By now, the teams of the other four clans were almost all there.
"Jeffrey and the others must be in big trouble!" Alex exclaimed.
"Are you going to go back and find them?" Rocky asked.
Alex narrowed her eyes. She didn't say anything.
"I think you should. If they really are in trouble, you are strong enough to rescue them," Vivian suggested.
"Okay. I'll go find them, and once I make sure they're okay, I'll catch up to you guys," Alex said. She was so worried about her clansmen that she was finding it quite difficult to stand still and not take action.
Rocky and Vivian nodded their heads, giving her permission to go.
In an instant, Alex turned around and left.
"It looks like they are all going to the snow mountain," Vivian commented, turning to look at Rocky. The four clans around them were pacing around, clearly preparing to leave.
"I think you're right. All of them should be more familiar with the route to the snow mountain than we are. I think we should join the Lingji Clan," Rocky said after thinking for a while. Since Vivian's wounds hadn't healed yet, and the road to the snow mountain would only be more dangerous and unpredictable, they needed to use the four clans' resources.
Vivian nodded in agreement.
"Elder Ruth, my friend has been seriously injured, and our young master has gone to look for our companions. Is it okay if the two of us join your team?" Rocky asked politely.
"Of course you can." Ruth didn't even give it a second thought. After the three of them had saved her life, she owed them a lot.
She waved her hand and Rocky and Vivian followed her over to the Lingji Clan's team.
"Ladies, I'd like to introduce two Spiritual Kings from the Wankong Clan. A few days ago, the young master of the Wankong Clan and these two helped me and some other Spiritual Emperors to escape. Without them, we would have all died. Right now, their young master has gone to find the other spirit warriors from their clan, and this Spiritual King is injured. So they are joining us for the time being. I hope you can take care of them," Ruth explained.
Because the Lingji Clan's team consisted of only female spirit warriors, the moment the two of them entered the team, they naturally attracted attention. Some of them were at the beginning of their puberty, so they rushed to Rocky and Vivian to flirt with them.
The spirit warriors from the other clans narrowed their eyes when they saw so many women gathered around Rocky and Vivian, but they held their tongues.
Not long after, the teams of the four clans started to walk towards the snow mountain.
The entrance of the snow mountain was covered in a very broad precipice that was mostly crisscrossed like a maze of canyons. The valley ahead of them was teeming with many powerful demonic spiritual beasts.
After entering the valley, the Lingji Clan's team separated from the other teams.
During the first two days, they didn't encounter many powerful demonic spiritual beasts.
But on the third day, the number of the demonic spiritual beasts doubled and they were all extremely strong.
Even the Lingji Clan, which was considered the top clan among the five clans, was struggling to defeat them.
