Chapter 1704 The Powerful Godly Genius

"Miss Vivian's in danger! Godly Genius, aren't we going to save her?" The men surrounding Rocky
immediately grew frantic and uneasy when they saw this. They knew they had to follow the plan and
stay back, letting Vivian lure the enemy alone.

Their whole scheme depended on Vivian's success!

But things were starting to grow dire for them. Everyone was deathly pale and was in a cold sweat as
the Spiritual Power Absorbing Stone sucked up all of their spiritual power.

She knew she had to play her part well since everyone was counting on her.

She mustered every drop of remaining strength she had and let out a defiant scream. Her body
radiated a cold blue light and a gigantic ice phoenix shot out of her body.

"The spirit of the ice phoenix? She actually fused with the spirit of a legendary beast's descendant..."
Tobias uttered to himself in awe.

A violent and icy whirlwind suddenly blew around Vivian, instantly freezing the mud and stone
whirlpool, which saved her and her comrades from getting sucked into the crack where the flames
spouted out.

"Hurry up and run away..." Vivian struggled to utter her order.

Without any second thoughts, they immediately broke free from their shackles and ran away as far as
they could.

In only a few moments, Vivian was the only one left inside the whirlpool.

It took all her might to summon the spirit of the holy beast, leaving no energy for her to try and escape.
The icy whirlwind surrounding her slowly grew weaker and weaker until it dissipated, causing the mud



and stone whirlpool to defrost and churn violently once again.

"Well, that's the end of that," Tobias said with a sigh of relief. He expected a violent fight would break
out when Vivian summoned the spirit of the holy beast, but he never saw her using her power to let her
comrades flee to safety. Realizing her strength has probably been depleted, he let out a sly smile.

Eager to finish her off, Tobias immediately released the furious demon shadow which rushed down the
mud and stone whirlpool.

Weak and frail, Vivian managed to put up a spiritual power barrier to try and block the oncoming attack.

But as expected, the barrier was easily broken. With the shadows quickly gaining on her, she saw no
other choice and lunged towards the crack where the flames spouted out.

Her body was instantly engulfed in flames, killing her in a matter of seconds.

"Miss Vivian..." Every member of the united guard team cried in shock. Only a handful of people knew
that this was actually part of the plan.

"Ha-ha!" Seeing Vivian being devoured in flames, Tobias couldn't help but let out a triumphant laugh.
The guard team of the Ghost Fief and the Flower Fief had lost their only leader and only high-level
Spiritual Emperor. They surely didn't stand a chance against him now.

Panic and fear struck at the guards' hearts when they saw her die.

"Who will fight me now?" Tobias gloated in front of them with his arms wide open.

Everyone glanced over each other, looking at Rocky.

"We still have to follow the plan," Rocky ordered with a blank stare.



Several middle-level Spiritual Emperors looked at each other. Although they wanted to immediately
check on Vivian, they knew that Rocky was next in command.

Without any questions, they quickly dispersed and did as they were told.

"Miss Vivian is dead. What are we waiting for? Let's run!"

"Let's escape! If we get captured, we'll experience something far worse than death!"

"What are we waiting for?"

Soon, panic ensued among the ranks.

Some cowardly guards suddenly made a break for it and began to flee in all directions.

Seeing that their army was in disarray, Tobias grew even more complacent.

"Finish them off!" Three Spiritual Emperors along with dozens of masters immediately rushed towards
those who were fleeing.

"Retreat!" Someone suddenly shouted, breaking all pandemonium loose.

Everyone trampled against each other to try and flee for their safety.

A wide grin slowly crept up across Tobias's face when he saw this.

"Godly Genius, they are coming!" While retreating, a middle-level Spiritual Emperor responsible for
covering for the others appeared beside Rocky and told him the situation.

"Good." Rocky nodded his head with satisfaction. As long as Tobias and his men were pursuing them,
everything would fall according to plan.



As soon as they arrive at an advantageous position, they would set up their ranks there to defend
against their opponent's attacks.

Although they were surrounded from all sides, the terrain gave them the advantage to fight back. The
battle went back and forth for hours, with no side clearly gaining the upper hand.

At first, Tobias and his men were caught off guard by the plan and were at a disadvantage in terms of
the number of people.

But relentless as they were, they managed to even the tide of battle. The stalemate lasted for hours on
end.

"Master Tobias, although we were the first to attack, they have occupied an advantageous terrain and
formed a strong defense around it. We can't break in at all. As we speak, more and more men are
being killed!"

"How pathetic. We ambushed the guard team and I killed Vivian. They were already in complete
disarray with the death of their leader and you still can't defeat them?! Forget it. I'll do it myself..."

Without another word, Tobias stormed with a group of men following closely behind him.

Meanwhile, Rocky was waiting for the perfect chance to launch a counterattack.

"Godly Genius, their high-level Spiritual Emperor decided to act on his own."

"He has finally risen to take the bait. It's only a matter of time before we can attack." Rocky smiled
calmly and gathered the one hundred people who he had trained before.

"Everyone, all of you have trained hard for many days, and now is the time for us to fight together.
Although you are not soldiers and can't be trained to be one in such a short time, you are all elites of



the Ghost Fief and the Flower Fief. Your strength, which is at least above the Spirit Realm, should be
enough to carry out my orders well..."

"We are willing to go through fire and water and risk our lives for you!"

"Godly Genius! Godly Genius!"

They all chanted in unison.

"Let's go. Let us show our true power to the Primitive Fief and defeat them!" With an uplifting battle cry,
Rocky led his men and charged towards their opponent.

Meanwhile, Valeria, who was gravely injured, watched from afar as Rocky led his team to battle. It
never once crossed her mind that Rocky would eventually become the spiritual leader of the guard
team. At first, she saw him as a good-for-nothing brat. But now, he was the reason she was still alive.

Of course, this change of feeling was unacceptable for her, but deep down she knew she could do
nothing to change this.
