Chapter 1868 So Lively

Not long after, Rocky and Anya were able to enter the Demon Sealing Palace. At the same time, the
scene that welcomed them was more shocking than what they had imagined. The entire space inside
the palace was like a boundless void, and on top of it was a huge golden ball of light that was emitting
a tremendous holy power, enveloping the whole palace.

At the center of the Demon Sealing Palace stood an eight-sided altar. On the altar was a crystal tripod
with four feet, each of which was wrapped by a thick golden chain of spiritual power. It could also be
seen that these chains were connected to the golden ball above.

'That should be the Purgatorial tripod that seals Phillip's soul, ' Rocky thought after seeing the crystal
tripod situated in the middle of the palace. He heard from Mikayla that Phillip's soul was sealed in it.

At this moment, the demoness had turned into black fog and was already approaching the altar.

"Master, while I stop her, go and protect the Purgatorial Tripod. We must do everything we can so that
she cannot release Phillip's soul." As soon as she said this, Anya immediately turned into a light
shadow and chased after the demoness as if she was a ray of starlight.

With her astonishing speed, she quickly caught up with the demoness.

"You are so persistent, it's getting annoying!" The demoness was actually taken aback. She did not
expect that Anya would catch up to her this soon.

She then waved her hand, releasing two streams of black fog. Immediately after, they turned into two
huge black flowers, blooming in midair. The next moment, vines sprouted from the flowers and spread
out, instantly surrounding and entangling Anya.

It turned out that the black vines were so strong that even with Anya's current form, she was unable to
break free.



Taking this opportunity, the demoness continued rushing toward the tripod. But at this moment, Rocky
was already beside her. In an instant, both of them landed on the altar at the same time.

"Brat! Get out my way and go to hell!" The demoness was getting impatient. She was able to restrain
Anya, but now, Rocky was also here to make her life difficult. Then, she waved her hand again,
producing several black flowers that blossomed around the altar. The next moment, the petals of the
flowers instantly spread out and bolted towards Rocky as if they were sharp blades.

Fortunately, Rocky's Magic Icy Armor immediately activated and protected him. As soon as the petals
touched the armor, they exploded and released a black light. As the barrage of black petals struck him,
he was eventually covered in black light.

"Give up, brat! You cannot resist my power!" the demoness snorted, confident that it was enough to
finish Rocky off.

However, after a moment, an ice force suddenly surged out and instantly dispersed the black light that
surrounded Rocky. Eventually, his figure emerged, unharmed.

"What? How is that possible?" Obviously, the demoness was so surprised that Rocky was able to
withstand her power.

Rocky did not even utter a word. Instead, he took the opportunity to launch a sword strike using the
God-killing Sword. Seeing this, the demoness quickly flew away, afraid that she would be hit by it.

Now that the demoness was far away from him, Rocky wasted no time and rushed to the Purgatorial
Tripod.

The demoness could not help but grit her teeth, thinking that she could not let Rocky take the tripod.
Thus, she chased after him and released the deadly black flowers again. However, just like earlier, the



black flowers just exploded, and the light they produced did not have any effect on Rocky. Thanks to
the Magic Icy Armor, he was totally unharmed.

When Rocky emerged without any injury, the demoness's jaw dropped, stunned at what she saw. She
could not believe how strong his armor was to keep him free from harm even after all the attacks that
he received. However, she did not know that even though his strength had not reached the God Realm
yet, his physical body was already refined into a divine body. Hence, his resilience was beyond what
one could imagine.

Of course, the demoness was still unwilling to give up. She quickly used another skill to deal with her
opponent. All of a sudden, countless black vortices appeared beneath Rocky's feet. Afterward, black
shadows rushed up and intertwined with each other as if they were thorny vines. Then, they blocked
his way, slowing him down and preventing him from getting close to the tripod.

However, even with this skill, it was still not a match for the God-killing Sword. As soon as Rocky
slashed the sword a few times, the black thorny vines were instantly cut to pieces.

At this point, Rocky was now inching towards the tripod. However, he did not really intend to take it
away. He thought that as long as he could protect it and prevent anyone from getting their hands on it,
he need not take it from where it was placed.

Now that Rocky was already standing in front of the Purgatorial Tripod, the demoness's face turned
extremely cold. At this moment, she was not in a very advantageous situation. She could not confront
him head-on because of the God-killing Sword. At the same time, Anya was just behind her. Although
she was still restrained, she could break free from the shackles any time soon. If she continued fighting
with them, her body might not last that long. Hence, the demoness could not really force herself and
risk it all.



However, while the demoness and Rocky remained motionless for a while, a demonic dragon shadow
suddenly appeared out of nowhere and rushed towards Rocky.

Fortunately, Rocky immediately sensed that something was about to attack him. With his quick
reflexes, he waved the God-killing Sword and resisted the incoming demonic dragon shadow.

Boom!

With a reverberating sound, the God-killing Sword clashed with the demonic dragon shadow and easily
destroyed it.

However, although he managed to block the attack, he was still caught up with the impact. Since it was
a sneak attack, he was not able to fully defend himself. If it weren't for the God-killing Sword and the
Magic Icy Armor, he would have been seriously injured.

"Come out, you coward!" Rocky snapped. The type of person that he liked the least was the one who
could not fight him fair and square.

"Ha-ha! Do not get too mad. My hand just slipped!" Immediately after, Rocky heard a familiar voice.

When he looked in the direction of the voice, he saw that it was actually Zain. Rocky was a bit
surprised to see the prince because he did not notice him enter the Demon Sealing Palace.

"I see. You have also entered…" Rocky's eyes narrowed knowing that Zain would definitely make the
situation messier. He knew that the prince's attack was really directed at him because he was standing
next to the tripod. Of course, Zain would not let anyone take the tripod since he wanted it for himself so
that he could become the next king of the Shura Race. It meant that there was even a possibility that
Zain would team up with the demoness just so they could drive Rocky away from the tripod.



"Yes, of course. Did you expect that my uncle will be able to stop me? You underestimate me," Zain
uttered in disdain.

Not long after, several figures appeared one after another. Enoch, Layla, Valeria, and several masters
at the medium and premium stage of the Shura Realm rushed in. Obviously, they were all inside in
order to get a hold of the tripod that contained Phillip's soul.

'This is quite unexpected, but I can use this chance!' After seeing that Enoch and his men were already
there, the demoness let out a grin and felt confident again. She thought that as long as Enoch and the
others could distract and stop Rocky, she would have the chance to release Phillip's soul from the
tripod.

Of course, Rocky knew what the demoness was thinking. Hence, the situation was now against his
favor. Most of the people now inside this Demon Sealing Palace had their own reason for obtaining the
tripod. Therefore, even if he talked to them, they would not listen to him.

At this moment, the scene was chaotic and complicated. Even though Rocky was already in front of the
Purgatorial Tripod, he was not sure of what could happen next.

All he could do right now was guard the tripod against everyone with all his strength. Right now, the
demoness was just a few steps away from Rocky, but she could not freely rush towards him. If she
wanted to get to the tripod, she would need others' help to force Rocky away from his current position.

Obviously, anyone could do that. Zain and Enoch would not hesitate to attack him. Moreover, even
Layla was covetous of the soul of Phillip since she yearned to be the next ruler. Therefore, it was like
Rocky was against everyone else.

But before anyone could make the first move, a burst of laughter suddenly resounded from the depths
of the Demon Sealing Palace. "Ha-ha! Would you look at this? The Demon Sealing Palace hasn't been



so lively for a long time. In fact, I didn't expect that someone would be able to open the enchanted
barrier. Well, it seems that I still have the chance to see the sun again."

Upon hearing the voice, everyone, including Rocky, was stunned.
