After that, Rocky undid the state of Spirit Possession with Ken, and because he didn't use too much of his spiritual power in keeping the state, there was no obvious side effect on him. He could still move freely afterward, and he went to sit cross-legged on the ground, as he adjusted his breath for a while.
"It is unbelievable that something so special is hiding underneath the Mysterious Cave! Where is that ancient spiritual beast sealed?" Rocky looked around and noticed that the hole above his head had shrunk to the size of a well's mouth, and the light was so further up that it was almost too dark to see. Several stalagmites were scattered around him, but because of the dim light, he could not see much of the whole area.
'I can feel something... There is a breeze blowing from the right!' Rocky noticed that there was a faint wind blowing from the right which was supposed to be the north direction. He looked that way, his eyes squinting in the darkness. When he could not make out what was there, he shrugged and started moving to the direction of the wind.
After about five minutes, he noticed that there were fewer stalagmites on his path, and a big entrance loomed in front of him. A chill passed through him, as he peered inside and saw the pitch-black cave that laid ahead. Terrifying aura emanated from somewhere inside.
"It looks very dangerous inside..." Rocky murmured to himself. Of course, it was a familiar feeling for him and was not intimidating in the least, even if the aura in the cave was stronger than the one he felt in the Myriad Beasts Ground or the Black Sand Abyss.
Without a trace of hesitation or fear, he briskly stepped into the entrance of the cave and made his way along its tunnel-like passage.
Before long, the tunnel widened into a spacious passage, and it was so big that he could not see the other end. Here, the rocks overlapped like countless underground hills, the ground rising and falling from time to time.
At the same time, he also felt a strong aura hidden in it, which was no less than that of a spirit-manipulated beast at the fourth grade of the five-star level. It meant that there were powerful beasts in it, but unfortunately, because of its surroundings, the au
s good as tickles on its rough skin, doing no damage at all.
After a long while, as the supernatural beast seemed to be getting tired, it suddenly turned its huge body away from them and slowly squirmed to hide once again, forgetting its two opponents.
After the beast had crawled away, Rocky breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it had not lost its temper easily, and it reacted very slowly. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to defeat it, even if he used up all his spiritual power.
"That supernatural beast is quite powerful. Even when I had Robin to help me, I could not even damage it at all," Rocky murmured to himself.
After resting for a while, he continued to move forward with Robin. This time, he was smart enough to let Robin explore the way ahead. Since it had mutated earlier and reached the qualification of a guardian beast, it was very sensitive and could easily distinguish the position of a supernatural beast.
With this outstanding ability, Rocky was able to go deeper into the cave safely. After Ken recovered, he also summoned it, and the three of them continued to advance into the depths of the cave.
At the same time, a delicate figure seemed to be shuttling through the maze-like Mysterious Cave with a bit of anxiety.
"Does that guy really want to go deep into the cave to see the sealed ancient spiritual beast? Is he stupid or maybe he has a death wish?" the delicate figure murmured to herself and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
