Chapter 1895 Within Three Days
"Then let's hear it. What does he want? Is he going to make me quit the competition for the throne?"
Zain asked, staring coldly at Vivian.
"You are mistaken, Your Royal Highness. Odin doesn't want you out of the competition. Instead, he
actually wants you to be the one who claims the throne," Vivian directly revealed while shaking her
head.
"What? No way!" The prince was so shocked, but he was absolutely sure that Vivian was lying.
"Why would I lie to you? Just listen to what I have to say. The only reason why Odin supported
Princess Layla is because of my brother. He is the Godly Genius of the Ghost Fief, so he should
naturally extend his help to the candidate that the leader chooses. But in reality, he knows that you are
the only one capable enough to inherit the throne. Moreover, even the king wants you to be the
successor. Think about it. Princess Layla has already handed Phillip's soul power to him, but he still
delayed his decision. If you were the one who accomplished the task back in the Ghostly Demon Land,
I am sure that the king already declared you as the next ruler," Vivian said in a very convincing tone.
"Humph! I did not think that you and Odin think so highly of me. But how on earth will you make this
work? Gilbert is your brother. Is it really okay for you to collude with Odin and betray him?" Although
Zain thought that Vivian's words made sense, he was not stupid enough to let his guard down that
easily.
"I am actually doing this for my brother's sake. Of course, I cannot directly go against his will. If
Princess Layla claims the throne, then I'm afraid that he will work the rest of his life under an unworthy
ruler. So, even though I am doing this for him, he cannot know," Vivian responded, deliberately making
it sound like Zain was the better option.
"Fine. Then, what does Odin want in return?" Zain finally asked. Apparently, all of Vivian's acting took
effect.
"He wants to take my brother's position and become the leader of the Ghost Fief. If you can help him
with this, then he guarantees that you will also have the support of the Flower Fief. When that happens,
five out of the nine major fiefs will back you up on your claim for the throne." Vivian then threw out the
bait to lure Zain in.
"That is too convenient. Why should I believe you?" Zain could not help but have some scruples since
what Rocky was offering was too good to be true.
"Well, not to be rude, but you have no chance of turning the tide of the events if your injuries cannot be
healed. Odin is presenting you a chance so that you can go back to your original state. What do you
need to hesitate for?" Vivian asked, continuing to manipulate Zain's mind.
"I already heard everything that you have to say. Now, I still need to think about this carefully."
"Of course, you can think about it first. However, it will be better if you can make your decision as soon
as possible." After delivering Rocky's message, Vivian left the room and disappeared in an instant.
"That guy is so ambitious that it makes him more dangerous." Even after Vivian left, Zain was lost in
thought. He could not decide if he could put his trust in Rocky.
Right after leaving the Royal Land, Vivian immediately rushed back to Gilbert's mansion and reported
everything to Rocky.
"So, were you able to deliver my message well?" Rocky asked the moment he caught sight of Vivian.
"Yes. I did everything according to your instructions. But I still think that he will not believe it so easily,"
Vivian replied in a bit of a pessimistic tone.
"Don't worry. Even he knows that I am his only hope. Believe me. He will come to me sooner than you
expect," Rocky sneered, knowing that his plan would surely work.
"I really don't know where your confidence is coming from. But of course, let's hope that you are right,"
Vivian replied with a shrug.
"By the way, do you happen to know a place within the Shura Race's territory that is suitable for
cultivating souls?" Rocky asked out of nowhere.
"You really have time to do that now?" Vivian glanced at him in disbelief.
"Yes. I am not busy right now. I still have a few days before things get a bit hectic again," Rocky replied
indifferently.
"Fine. I do know a good place, but I have to warn you that it is very dangerous. Are you sure that you
want to go there?" Vivian was a bit hesitant because she thought that it might not be the best place for
Rocky.
"Wait. Are you worried about me?" Rocky smiled mischievously.
"Can you be more serious? This place is nothing to joke about." Vivian let him have an earful.
"Okay, sorry. Where is it?"
"The place is called the Fallen Spirit Valley. It is where I got the deity's spirit back then. Countless years
ago, many of the souls of the fallen deities and devils drifted to that area. That is why it has been
famous as a place where you can cultivate your soul. However, as time passed, it has become home to
powerful diabolic beasts. Some of them have even lived there for more than a hundred years. Since
then, ordinary masters do not dare to step into the deathly valley. In other words, if one doesn't have
enough strength, he will just end up dead." Vivian gave a fair warning.
"I see. I've become even more interested. I will go to this place, so as soon as Prince Zain gave his
reply, let this Carrier Beast inform me." Rocky then took out a Carrier Beast from the Magic Spiritual
Space and handed it over to Vivian.
Afterward, Vivian left.
Rocky returned to the Ghost Palace. There, he packed up some pills and other necessary things just in
case he needed them on his trip.
When Rocky was almost finished packing, Valeria came in and saw his luggage.
"Are you going somewhere?" Valeria probed out of curiosity.
"Yeah. I decided to cultivate in seclusion for a few days. I will be back shortly."
"Where are you going this time?"
"Miss Vivian said that it's called the Fallen Spirit Valley."
"Fallen Spirit Valley? Isn't that a very dangerous place?" Worry instantly filled Valeria's eyes as she
thought that Rocky was really fond of risking his own life.
"Don't worry. It's not something that I can't handle."
"Are you going by yourself?"
"Yes, I am. It was just actually a spur-of-the-moment decision."
"Then, why don't I accompany you?" It seemed that Valeria was so concerned that she wanted to
ensure Rocky's safety.
"Thank you, but I think it would be better if you stay here and assist Leader Gilbert. We don't know
what may suddenly happen. Moreover, the Flower Fief might also need you," Rocky persuaded.
"Yes, you're right. Anyway, be careful!" Valeria knew that Rocky was just being reasonable, so she had
no choice but to agree.
Immediately after, Rocky left the mansion and headed for the Fallen Spirit Valley. Apparently, the Fallen
Spirit Valley was located in the middle of the territory, which was actually a plain. When one looked at it
from the sky, its shape was like a full moon that was just missing an acute angle.
Soon enough, Rocky landed at the valley and got off Rubygon. That was when he immediately felt a Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
very strong surging aura that belonged to the spirits of the deities and devils.
"This place feels so terrifying just with the mere presence of the overbearing auras," Rocky murmured
to himself as he entered the valley with Rubygon.
On the surface, the Fallen Spirit Valley was not much different from ordinary valleys. It was filled with
dense plants and beautiful sceneries.
But of course, this seemingly peaceful and lush valley was full of imminent dangers.
In fact, the moment Rocky and Rubygon started walking in the valley, they were instantly targeted by a
powerful diabolic beast.
The beast's strength was at the medium stage of the Shura Realm, and its size was way bigger than
Rubygon.
However, no matter how big or strong this diabolic beast was, it was still weaker compared to Rubygon.
In just a few exchanges of blows, Rubygon easily killed the vicious beast.
As they moved on, Rocky noticed that the spiritual power in the Fallen Spirit Valley was so rich
because of the existence of the spirits of deities and devils. Hence, it was indeed very helpful for a
warrior if he cultivated his soul in this place.
In the next few days, Rocky found a spot where he spent his time concentrating on cultivating his soul.
Because of the very advantageous environment, his soul successfully broke through and became a
genuine Fighting Soul. With his cultivation base and the strength of his soul, he had now become a real
master at the Shura Realm.
Then, just as Rocky finished his soul cultivation, he received a message from the Carrier Beast, saying
that Zain wanted to see him.
With this, Rocky immediately left the Fallen Spirit Valley and headed towards the Royal Land.
Upon arriving at the Royal Land, Rocky wasted no time and went straight to Zain's palace.
"Your Royal Highness, it has been a long time since I last saw you!" Rocky greeted in a casual manner.
"Stop all this nonsense and let's just get down to business. Let me be blunt. If I agree to have a deal
with you, can you assure me that you can heal my injuries?" Zain cut straight to the point.
"Well, if I can't even do that, I will be a huge disappointment to my master," Rocky said in an indifferent
tone.
"Fine. How long will it take to completely cure my condition?" the prince asked with furrowed brows.
"Give me three days."
"What? Three days? Are you insane?!" Zain was in total disbelief, thinking that Rocky was fooling him.
After all, he had tried every means possible just so he could recover, but none of them worked.
However, Rocky was claiming without any hesitation that he could heal his injuries in just three days.
Of course, the prince had a hard time believing this.
