Chapter 1118 The Hexagonal Netting Dragon Ring

"To be honest, I don't know myself either. I had this itching desire to save father ever since I heard that he was still alive. But he is not my actual father..." Rocky's feelings suddenly became a little contradictory after he heard the voice from the cave. In fact, as soon as they set foot in the Dragon Wing Valley, he immediately felt in his gut that this rescue was a little bit too reckless and not well thought of. Yet, he also felt as if something deep inside of him was driving him vigorously, making him feel that his thoughts were normal and reasonable because he was saving his father.

Meanwhile, the cave's wall suddenly began to shine like two bright lights. Soon after, a strong gaze was instantly fixed on Rocky.

"I think I know why... It's because your soul doesn't belong to your current body. Moreover, the soul that really belongs to the body is waking up, so your consciousness has been gradually affected..." The voice in the cave stopped speaking for a moment. After a short while, it then slowly explained Rocky the plausible reason.

"What? What do you mean? There's another soul in my body? Can it be..." Rocky's eyes widened in shock. All along, he thought that the real Basil was dead.

If what the voice inside the cave said was true, then that would mean that the real Basil was not dead, and his soul was still in this body. His soul had been in a deep sleep just because it was occupied by Rocky's soul.

"Do you often surpass your body's limits and use the power that your body can't bear?" the voice inquired.

Rocky's mouth turned into a frown as he nodded.

"Well, I think I know what's happening now. If you use power beyond your body's limits, it will not only hurt your body but also your soul. Perhaps you are not aware of this, but your soul has become incomplete. Thus, it will cause the other soul in your body to wake up. Moreover, the consciousness of the other soul will invisibly affect your thoughts, but you won't realize that it is the consciousness of another soul and not yours. As this happens, you would only think that it is your own thought. That can be the only reasonable explanation for your current situation." In this way, the voice successfully solved Rocky's doubts.

It could not be denied that it was hard for him to believe what he just heard, but it could also finally explain the strange situation that had happened to him. Was his consciousness really affected by Basil's soul that he would have the intense determination to save the emperor this time?

"Perhaps, you may find my words unbelievable to some extent, and I won't blame you for that. However, you have to believe that the power of the soul is very powerful. The spiritual race was once obsessed with souls' power, causing th

B—Basil... you have entered... the royal family's forbidden area... haven't you?" the emperor exclaimed in astonishment.

"Father, the Dragon Master Clan asked me to bring spiritual treasure in exchange for your freedom, so I went to the forbidden area without thinking twice," Rocky responded. At the same time, he fixed his eyes on the power of the spiritual shadows of the Hexagonal Netting Dragon Ring that was wildly colliding with the enchanted barrier.

"Do you... have the spiritual treasure... with you right now?" the emperor asked, with a noticeable tone of excitement in his voice.

Rocky nodded.

"Basil, no matter what happens, never let... the Dragon Master Clan... take away the spiritual treasure from you. Otherwise..." Without warning, the emperor's face changed drastically.

"I've already known everything about the spiritual treasure. Father, please don't worry about it. I have a plan, and I know what I'm doing! But, do you know why the Hexagonal Netting Dragon Ring is acting like this?" Rocky turned his gaze to the spiritual shadows that continuously shot out from the ring. As a result, its constant contact with the enchanted barrier almost covered all of it.

"The Hexagonal Netting Dragon Ring... is the Spiritual Weapon... owned by the fifth emperor of our Holy Dragon Empire... Among all the emperors... of our empire, the fifth emperor was the strongest spirit manipulator..." the emperor said with difficulty, catching his breath in the process. Then, he coughed a few times and continued, "It is said that he became a spirit manipulator at the peak of the ninth grade... of the Immortal Stage... And the most powerful part... of the Hexagonal Netting Dragon Ring... is that based on the holder's own will... it will have different forms of attacks or defenses to maximize the holder's strength..."
