But it was too late. A leopard-shaped spiritual beast rushed out of the grass directly towards a team member.
He was so frightened that his legs weakened and began to tremble for he didn’t know how to escape. Just as the spiritual beast was about to bite him, a figure suddenly appeared wielding a military knife which he used to block the beast’s razor-sharp teeth.
It was none other than Kye.
"Idiot! What are you waiting for? Run now!" Kye cursed loudly.
The team member quickly fled from the beast upon hearing his command.
As Kye wielded his knife fiercely, the spiritual beast swiftly retreated into the grass and disappeared.
Not long after, more spiritual beasts rushed out and attacked Rocky’s team of spiritual warriors.
"It appears we still need to find a way out of here," Rocky noted with a serious look. Realizing it wasn’t safe to stay, he immediately summoned the Purple-flaming Phoenix.
Kye and his team were shocked when Rocky called upon his spiritual beast with the strength of a Spiritual Infant.
Once the Purple-flaming Phoenix appeared, it shot out a flame that burned all the grass within a hundred meters to ashes. The spiritual beasts that hid among the grass were then exposed.
"Charge!" Rocky screamed intensely. He then led his team to engage in a fierce battle with the spiritual beasts.
Before long, some of the beasts were killed while others fled.
"Lead the way, Purple-flaming Phoenix!" Rocky commanded.
The Purple-flaming Phoenix flew in a straight line and burned all the grass in its path to ashes.
Soon, the phoenix created a wide road for Rocky and his team to walk on.
He continued to lead them on a quest for a safe route.
Half a day later, Rocky discovered one and led them towards it.
Deputy Commander Lin led the patrol team into the forest according to the route Rocky provided and began the search.
The forest was so vast that a day’s search wasn’t enough. Therefore, they set up camp on the spot and set up a tripwire to warn them of any incoming sneak attacks by the spiritual beasts.
"Let’s continue the search for another day. If we're certain that there's no trace of the spiritual race's troops, we can then return to the Tiger Whisker Pass," Deputy Commander Lin informed Rocky. Truthfully, he didn't want to stay in such a dangerous area for too long.
"I agree." Of course, Rocky had no objections.
And the night passed without any danger.
The patrol team continued to go into and search deeper within the primeval forest. When they found no trace of the spiritual race's troops on the third day of their search, Deputy Commander Lin was ready to lead the team back. But not long after, they accidentally stumbled upon an entrance to a valley where they discovered a statue that was half-human and half-beast.
"Deputy Commander Lin, have you been to this valley before?" Rocky asked the deputy commander out of curiosity.
"No, I've never been to this forest before." The deputy commander shook his head.
"Shall we get into the valley and search it?" Rocky suggested. Mysterious places always piqued his curiosity.
"Well..." Deputy Commander Lin hesitated. In fact, he didn’t want to enter.
