The sun had long set by the time Rocky arrived at the forests surrounding the Myriad Beasts Group. Even after the entire day of trek, he still hadn't reached his destination. He was aiming to reach the second grade of the Heavenly Stage at the Myriad Beasts Ground. As he looked at the dim sky, he realized he still had a long way to go.
Rocky recalled the last time he was at the Myriad Beasts Ground. A few minutes in it, he found himself nearly meeting his death. He was well aware that the place was lurking with dangers.
But situation had changed now and the place was not as dangerous as it was before to him. He had strengthened himself a lot, especially his inner evil spiritual power. And he could reach the third grade of the Heavenly Stage if he got the chance. Besides those, there was one person who played a very important part in it, Sabina. If it were not Sabina, Rocky would never think about going into this place for further cultivation.
"Isis must hate me now," Rocky thought. "But," he continued out loud, "self-preservation is the number one rule of nature. There is nothing more important than protecting myself." As he walked into the forest with his four beasts, Rocky continued to talk to himself.
With no sun to cast shadows to guide him, Rocky was lost in time. He wasn't sure when he would reach the second grade of the Heavenly Stage. But it was alright, Rocky thought. This was what he prepared himself for, after all. He was determined that nothing would stop him from reaching his destination.
In his recent battle against the spirit manipulators of the Heavenly Stage from the Timber Deity Empire, Rocky was introduced to his flaws. And it dawned on him that his biggest one was on the Spirit Possession. Spirit Possession was a great power to have. Through it, he could defeat powerful enemies. However, he needed to do it within a certain time frame or, otherwise, he would risk getting killed by the enemy. So he committed himself to only summoning the skill in times of absolute need.
Unfortunately, when Rocky activated his Spirit Possession during his encounter with the powerful master Liam, he found that it was of not much use.
Rocky was able to tap into his animalization power. Animalization from the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill was one of the four secret skills in the Wild Spirit Land. But during the time of his encounter, he only reached the first level and only activated
most now was a chance, a chance where the Rainbow Glow Unicorn would voluntarily submit to him. But the chance was rare. Unlike ordinary war beasts, this spiritual beast species had its own thoughts and was able to distinguish good from bad.
So far, the Rainbow Glow Unicorn trusted Rocky. It followed him around because it felt like Rocky was harmless and it longed for his magical saliva. Soon, their relationship grew into co-dependence. Rocky made sure that the Rainbow Glow Unicorn continued to trust him. But, despite Rocky's efforts, Rocky could not make the Rainbow Glow Unicorn submit to him. He could not make it believe that he could be its master.
And that trait in itself was what made it unique from other beasts. They had their own thoughts and beliefs, similar to humans, and they did not waiver easily.
Taming the Rainbow Glow Unicorn remained challenging for Rocky. But Rocky was persistent on achieving so. After all, if he succeeded, he knew that he would be the first spirit manipulator to own two spiritual beasts.
The Rainbow Glow Unicorn was an amazing treasure hunter. It was a master compared to all the other spiritual beasts. Though all spiritual beasts were gifted with treasure hunting abilities, none of them compared to the Rainbow Glow Unicorn.
Rainbow Glow Unicorns had extra-sensory perception that detected not just what was in the physical world, but also those not obvious to the naked eye. It had the ability to see inside beasts. Last time, it even sensed the Water Essence Pill inside the body of a Three-tailed Aquatic Lizard. Rainbow Glow Unicorns were born treasure hunters.
