Chapter 1002 The Dreadful Secret

"The Wood Clan? Are you sure? The Wood Clan wants to get the spiritual treasure so badly. They
must have some ulterior motive and scheme behind it. It never occurred to me that they would use
humans to enter the Hell of Dragon Fang and look for the treasure. Chances are that they could not
break through the forbidden spell, so they had to use humans to do it for them. But the guardian beast
that protected the spiritual treasure was too powerful for humans to handle," the delicate figure
commented as she saw through the whole situation. "But if it was a human, you could not kill him,
right? Based on our ancestral teachings, we are not allowed to harm any human beings."

"To deal with those simple obstacles, I don't have to do it myself! I already activated the spirit-
manipulated beasts of the Hell of Dragon Fang to deal with those humans," the beautiful figure from the
spiritual race snorted.

"Where is that man? You did not kill him, did you?" the figure suddenly asked.

"Is he your lover? Why did you give your spiritual soul to him?" the beauty asked. Her face showed
concern as she waited for an answer.

"Of course not! It's just that he is valuable at the moment and may come in handy in the future," the
figure replied softly, but her tone sounded cold and murderous.

"What do you mean he is valuable? Is he so important that you would go against the teachings of our
ancestors and get involved with a human being? You even gave him your spiritual soul! You are
completely aware of what the other spiritual races, especially the major spiritual races, would do to us if
they found out the traces of our race!" the beauty reprimanded the figure in the projection.

"I know. But I trust that this person can help us open the sacred place. I had to take the risk!" the figure
insisted.



"How can a mere human open our sacred place?" The beauty of the spiritual race was taken by
surprise. She was not convinced that a mere human could help them.

"Didn't you sense the power that is hidden inside his body?" the figure pointed out.

The beauty thought about it and replied, "Yes, I did. But I was worried that your spiritual soul is inside a
human body at that time and didn't care what he's capable of!"

"It was why I did not hesitate to save him back then. I sensed the unyielding power hidden inside his
body, and I am confident he can help us open the sacred place. He may be our only hope," the figure
said firmly.

"Even so, it's too dangerous, and it's not worth the risk! After all, even if we can enter the sacred place,
we still cannot do anything with our current strength." The beauty shook her head.

"That is not necessarily true. Don't forget that there is a dreadful secret among the clans of the spiritual
race. Once this secret is exposed, do you think the humans will still be at the mercy of spiritual race?
The fact that the Wood Clan sent humans to look for the spiritual treasure this time, they must have a
plan. If they find the spiritual treasure, it will cause a great uproar among the clans of the spiritual race,
and even endless battles. It will also expose the rest of the spiritual treasures. We can say goodbye to
peace at the Wild Spirit Land, once the spiritual treasures are reunited. This is an opportunity for us!"
The figure seemed to have it all figured out.

"If that's the case, I'm afraid there will be another war among the clans of the spiritual race." The beauty
nodded in agreement.

"Exactly! That is why we cannot afford to miss this opportunity," the figure said seriously.

"But if you do this, you will go against the last and most important teaching of our ancestors. You might
even bring disaster to our remaining clansmen. Are you sure you want to do this?" the beauty asked. It



filled her face with worry and apprehension.

"Only a few of our clansmen are left. If this continues, our clan will be wiped out, eventually. As the
daughter of the former chief of our clan, it is my duty to protect our clan's survival," the figure answered,
still unshaken by the danger that she was about to face.

"Can you do it alone?" the beauty asked with a sweet smile. This time she was convinced.

"Will you help me?" the figure asked in a meek voice.

"If I did not intend to help you, then I wouldn't have freed that man and told him the location of the
spiritual treasure. I realized that you must have a plan. I know you too well. Even if we haven't seen
each other for decades," the beauty said, still smiling. She had already determined part of the figure's
plan, and it was why she allowed Rocky to go.

"Then you know what to do next, right?" the figure asked.

The beauty did not respond. She turned around and waved her hand as she walked out of the cave.
The delicate figure projected from the spiritual ball also vanished.

As soon as the beauty stepped out of the cave, a sudden rush of air surrounded her and the black robe
on her body fluttered. Her four translucent wings unfolded and dazzled under the sun. Without a word,
she released numerous spots of spiritual light, which made her look luminous and attractive.

The next moment, the beauty took flight and soared higher until she disappeared behind the clouds.

Meanwhile, Rocky took Ken with him as soon as he got the location of the spiritual treasure from the
beauty. He was aware that the spirit-manipulated beasts inside the Hell of Dragon Fang were in a
frenzy and would not hesitate to kill a human like him. However, since he knew the location of the
spiritual treasure, he was determined to continue despite the imminent dangers.



True enough, the spirit-manipulated beasts that he encountered as he neared the strange-shaped
flame mountain were more dangerous and more murderous. Every once in a while, he would encounter
a spirit-manipulated beast above the fifth grade of the five-star level.

Rocky walked for two days before he finally reached the flame mountain. It looked like an elegant piece
of art, connected by four huge pillars. In between the gaps were wild, smokeless flames, blazing out of
control. The entire place was majestic and emanated with magnificent aura.

The flame mountain was said to be the hell on earth. Spirit-manipulated beasts at the fifth grade of five-
star level or even six-star level protected the entire mountain from intruders. They were mighty guards
that patrolled around the blazing mountain, ready to pounce on anyone who came near. There were
hundreds of them, and not even a fly could go near.

"I don't know if I can do this..." The only way for him to enter the mountain was through Ken's invisibility
ability. However, he was worried about the countless spirit-manipulated beasts that kept the
surrounding area under surveillance. The stronger ones would definitely have razor-sharp senses, and
could detect him despite Ken's invisibility ability. This happened when he entered the Mysterious Cave.
He encountered a guardian beast that could see through Ken's invisibility ability. It terrified him that if it
happened again, it would be disastrous for both of them.

Still, the spiritual treasure was now within his reach. The danger was not enough for him to give up.
With this, he pulled himself together and instructed Ken to activate its invisibility ability. Rocky then
walked towards the mountain stealthily.
