Chapter 1025 He Was Far Outnumbered

Soon, another figure came out of the ancestral temple. He was tall and robust, and his aura was of the
Heavenly Stage.

"Rocky, long time no see!" the figure called out to Rocky.

"Dunn?" Rocky recognized that the man at once. Dunn was a spy in the Crimson Dragon Group for
many years under Alyssa's order. Then, after his identity as a spy had been discovered, he returned to
the army of the Timber Deity Empire.

Logically speaking, since Dunn was a spy arranged by Alyssa, he could be considered a trustworthy
person for her. However, Rocky did not expect that Dunn would betray her. The traitor thought that he
was doing the right thing by using the opportunity to improve his strength and social rank.

"Now you can't deny it, can you?" Geoffrey stared at Rocky gleefully.

Rocky shrugged and smiled. Since Geoffrey had even bribed such an important witness, then Rocky
had no reason to refute. Instead of responding, he turned to Queenie and said, "This is none of your
business. Just go back to the Cao Mansion!" He wanted her to stay somewhere safe because he knew
that a fierce battle could erupt at any moment. He didn't wish to involve Queenie or the Cao Clan in his
problems.

"No, I won't go back. I can't let them gang up on you." Queenie didn't care about Rocky's true identity.
Her only thought was that she couldn't let Geoffrey and others browbeat Rocky.

Of course, Rocky would not give her any chance to be willful. He seized her, released a wave of his
domineering spiritual power to lock the spiritual power inside her body, and then summoned Robin.

"Take her back to the Cao Mansion," Rocky ordered as he threw Queenie on its back.



"No, let me go!" Since her spiritual power was locked, Queenie couldn't do anything to fight back. That
didn't stop her from glaring at Rocky and struggling, albeit uselessly.

Meanwhile, Robin looked around warily. It could probably tell that its master was in danger, so it was
unwilling to leave him. However, under Rocky's insistence, it howled mournfully, then took Queenie out
of the crowd, quickly flying away with her on its back.

On the other hand, Geoffrey didn't order anyone to chase after Queenie because he didn't want to get
her involved either. After all, she was a member of the Cao Clan. Even if the clan wanted to protect
Rocky, he had used despicable means to kidnap Queenie, so there was no need to make things too
complicated. Anyway, he only had one target, and that was Rocky. His top priority was to defeat Rocky
and then use him to beat Woods. And even if Queenie went back to the Cao Mansion to ask for help so
they could save Rocky, they didn't have enough time to stop him. Rocky would be in their custody
before the Cao Clan arrived here with their people. If by some stroke of luck, the Cao Clan could make
it, Geoffrey was sure that they wouldn't want to have anything to do with a strong enemy of the Timber
Deity Empire like Rocky. The plan he made from the start had considered everything. No one would
have the chance to help Rocky again.

"Please go ahead, Master Sherman." At this time, Geoffrey suddenly nodded to Sherman.

Sherman took a deep breath, and then his aura of the Divine Stage suddenly rose. He waved his
hands in the air, and spiritual lights flashed like lightning, as the air around them gained greater
strength.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of odd-shaped wooden pillars rose within a hundred meters radius of the
ancestral temple.

Spiritual currents crisscrossed like an electric net and covered the sky above the crowd with heavy
spiritual clouds, like an enchanted barrier, which completely blocked the area within the one hundred



radius.

"Now, you can't escape even if you have wings!" Geoffrey glared at Rocky darkly, and if looks could kill,
Rocky would have died.

Rocky knew that Geoffrey was worried that he might use his ability to hide, so he asked Sherman to set
up an enchanted barrier. Although Rocky's ability to hide allowed him to be invisible, it couldn't help him
pass through the enchanted barrier. Sure enough, Geoffrey was well prepared to hunt him down!

Besides that, he had seen that Rocky had a very powerful mysterious spirit-manipulated beast before,
so to make sure of his success, he brought with him two masters at the Divine Stage, Sherman and
Alexander.

With all these efforts, Geoffrey was confident that Rocky could not escape. He had so many warriors at
the Supernal Stage, and had already cut off most of his escape routes.

Geoffrey had given all he could for this mission. It was no easy feat to pull together such a powerful
lineup to catch Rocky, who was only at the Supernal Stage!

In other words, he might have thought too highly of Rocky.

"Go ahead. You will be rewarded handsomely if you take him down!" Geoffrey didn't waste time,
ordering all his men to move.

More than twenty figures surrounded Rocky at his behest, most of them spirit manipulators at the
Heavenly Stage. However, they weren't there because they hated Rocky. All of them had eyes on the
bounty that Geoffrey would give to them.

Without any hesitation, Rocky tightly clutched the Frozen Wind Dagger between his hands, and in an
instant, it turned into a crescent-shaped Flaming Blade. He didn't even blink, as he faced down all the



spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage from all directions. Instead, he rushed to meet the fastest
approaching figures. He waved the Flaming Blade like it was an extension of his hand, and soon, he
clashed with a spirit manipulator who had moved a second too slow. The latter was on fire before he
could react, and the Evil Flame danced all over his body. With the fire burning more and more
intensely, the man turned to ashes within a few seconds.

Since Rocky broke through to the Supernal Stage with the help of Alyssa, his power of Fire nature had
soared, which made the Evil Flame more powerful. It was difficult for ordinary spirit manipulators at the
Heavenly Stage to resist it.

When they realized what had happened, the other spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage hesitated
in their movements, as a look of horror shadowed their faces. After all, only a ridiculously powerful
person could kill such a warrior in a few seconds. However, they took courage in the fact that they
outnumbered him, and quickly regained their momentum. At the same time, they summoned their spirit-
manipulated beasts to assist in the battle. Dozens of shadow beasts flocked to attack Rocky.

With Rocky's current strength, not even forty spirit manipulators at the Heavenly Stage were a threat to
him, let alone just twenty of them. Thus, he met them in battle with courage and determination. This
was the difference between the strengths at the Supernal Stage and the Heavenly Stage.

Soon, more than half of the twenty spirit manipulators had been killed or injured, while Rocky was yet
to break out in a sweat.

"What are you waiting for? Attack him together!" Geoffrey's face darkened. He signaled to the masters
at the Supernal Stage who were still standing there furiously, trying to get them to attack Rocky.

Generally speaking, spirit manipulators who had reached such a stage had great pride for their craft. It
meant that they were rarely willing to attack weaker people, especially when there was only one spirit
manipulator on the other side.



Therefore, several masters at the Supernal Stage looked at each other, speechless. At first, they were
unsure whether they should gang up on a single person. After a few moments of hesitation, two
masters at the primary stage of the Supernal Stage took the lead to attack Rocky. Perhaps, in their
opinion, with the help of the two relatively weaker masters, it would be more than enough to take Rocky
down.
