Chapter 1641 The Spiritual Race Army’s True Intention

"There are fifty people in total, including us," Tessa replied.

"Good. With your help, our army will be able to move quickly and execute the mysterious military arrays
swiftly." Rocky nodded with satisfaction.

The mysterious military arrays couldn't be activated by ordinary soldiers alone. Only spirit warriors
could boost the arrays to their full potential. The more spiritual warriors that joined, the more powerful
the mysterious military arrays.

So with the help of spirit warriors like Tessa, Rocky's army would greatly improve in terms of combat
capability.

After briefly explaining the current situation of the battlefield to Tessa and others, Rocky called in Kye
and asked him to take them to get familiar with the environment and communicate with the soldiers.

The spies under Rocky, who had been monitoring the spiritual race army's movements very closely,
had just intercepted a vital piece of information. A spiritual race army amounting to fifty thousand
people was heading towards Panta Mountain. Why they were headed there remained a mystery.

Panta Mountain was the junction between the human race and the spiritual race. Its location was quite
far from the current battlefield, which was why their sudden race towards it was naturally suspicious.

Rocky immediately sent out more spies to uncover who the commander of the spiritual race army was.

Two days later, Rocky was informed of who their commander was. It was none other than Beverly, a
female beast manipulator of the spiritual race who had fought with Rocky before.

'Does she know that there's an Emperor Realm spiritual beast in that mountain? Does she plan to
subdue and manipulate it to command thousands of other beasts? If the spiritual race succeeds, this



will greatly affect our chances of winning the future battles.' Rocky had a bad feeling about this, like a
cold and heavy stone stuck at the pit of his stomach.

In the end, he promptly ordered and led five thousand troops to the primeval forest of the Panta
Mountain to further investigate.

After three days of traveling, Rocky's army finally arrived at Panta Mountain. It seemed as though they
were one step ahead of the spiritual army since they couldn't find any trace of them.

Their early arrival meant that they were at an advantage. Rocky immediately began to station troops
around the forest to ambush the spiritual race army who would soon showed up.

As he expected, Beverly and her spiritual race army arrived at the primeval forest a day later. They
immediately sent spies into the forest to search for the Emperor Realms beast.

Although Beverly and her army had stepped right into their trap, Rocky was in no rush. Instead, he
waited in the dark like a patient predator ready to pounce on his prey at the right moment. It was also
because he wanted to uncover how the spiritual race would subdue the Emperor Realm spiritual beast.

Another day passed.

After a lengthy search, the spies sent by the spiritual race finally uncovered the beast's whereabouts
deep within the primeval forest. Beverly led her troops into the forest with no hesitation and headed
straight for its nest.

The spiritual race caused quite a disturbance which immediately alerted the Emperor Realm spiritual
beast that was near.

It seemed to have guessed that they were coming for it. It swiftly summoned a menacing spiritual beast
army to guard its lair.



However, the spiritual race army was by no means ordinary. Many of its members were highly-skilled at
hunting spiritual beasts. Every soldier in the army received nothing less than the best in terms of
training for hunting. This gave them the advantage of knowing how to deal with powerful spiritual
beasts.

Although an intimidating spiritual beast army guarded the lair, Beverly's army swiftly launched an attack
as soon as they arrived at its location. Rocky assumed that they intended to finish this battle as quickly
as possible.

Because the spiritual army made preparations in advance, the spiritual beast army soon fell into
despair under their impressive attack.

The Emperor Realm spiritual beast was furious in its cave as it witnessed its spiritual beast army's
inability to fend off the spiritual race army's attack. At last, it headed to the battlefield to lead its army.

Just as it showed up, two mighty spiritual race warriors of the Emperor Realm arrived to face it head-
on.

"No wonder the spiritual race army is so aggressive. They had help from the Emperor Realm masters.
If those two manage to subdue this beast, then it will truly be a dire situation." Rocky, who lurked alone
beside the lair, knew that something amiss was about to happen once he saw the two Emperor Realm
masters join the battle.

The only people who could save the Emperor Realm spiritual beast now were Rocky and his army.

But if Rocky's army fought now, then they would inevitably suffer numerous losses.

Rocky couldn't overthink now. He needed to stop the spiritual race first.



He immediately left the Emperor Realm spiritual beast's lair and joined his troops outside the primeval
forest. They planned to launch a surprise attack on the spiritual race army.

Once everything was ready, he led his army to attack from behind the spiritual race army. The latter
were immediately caught off guard.

They did not expect to be attacked by a human army. Soon, they found themselves caught between a
rock and a hard place as they were surrounded by not just the spiritual beast army but by the human
army as well.

Beverly was shocked upon seeing the human army appear out of nowhere. However, she redirected
her focus on subduing the Emperor Realm spiritual beast. To help preserve her power, she swiftly
ordered the two Emperor Realm masters to help her and her army retreat.

Soon, the spiritual race army retreated from the lair.

Once the spiritual beast army realized that their enemy had fled, they redirected their attack towards
Rocky and his army. They seemed to regard them as enemies as well.

"Sir, do you still recognize me?" Rocky hastily took flight and positioned himself to face the Emperor
Realm spiritual beast.

"You! It appears both the humans and the spirit warriors wish to get hold of the sacred weapon among
the ruins…" The spiritual beast instantly recognized Rocky as the mysterious spirit warrior who fled
with the human army under its watch. However, it still thought Rocky's intention was the same as the
spiritual race's—to steal the sacred weapon.

"What sacred weapon?" Of course, Rocky had no clue about the sacred weapon. He became curious
about what the spiritual beast had just said. It seemed that the spiritual army intended to not only



subdue the beast but to steal its precious sacred weapon too.

"Stop pretending. You humans are just as greedy as the spiritual race. You always wish to manipulate
us. Once you get your hands on the sacred weapon, you'll succeed," the spiritual beast commented
with hostility in its voice.

"It seems you've misunderstood me. I'm not going after any sacred weapon. I just want to stop the
spiritual race from hurting you," Rocky admitted.

"Do you honestly think I'm stupid enough to believe you?" The spiritual beast snorted.

"Whether or not you believe me, it doesn't matter. But there's no doubt that I've helped you out just
now. I don't require anything else in return. I just wish for me and my troops to leave safely." Rocky
knew that the spiritual race army would lead another counterattack soon after they left. He couldn't
allow his army to be further entangled with the spiritual beast army.

The beast paused to think further before it replied, "Alright, I'll let you and your troops go. But you must
swear that you will never step foot into this forest again."
