"Report! A human army has entered the Demon Valley." A spy who was assigned to monitor Rocky strode into Jonathan's tent and reported.
"I see. You can leave now." Jonathan waved his hand.
Once the spy left, Jonathan turned towards Alyssa. Her hands and feet were shackled by the black iron that contained her spiritual power. Jonathan then shot her a chilling smile and said, "It seems your beloved still doesn't want to leave you."
Alyssa returned his gaze with a deadpan stare. She bit her lips tightly. Although she undoubtedly knew that Rocky would come to save her, a part of her heart didn't want to believe it. She knew that once he came, there was probably no going back.
"What? Why the long face? You should be happy you'll be reunited with your sweetheart soon," Jonathan provoked her.
"Enough! Do you really think you'll win? Don't be so quick to laugh when this hasn't ended yet. I believe Basil will defeat you and take us back," Alyssa said firmly with excitement.
"Haha! Alright. I'd love to see him try to rescue you from the tight restrictions I've set." Jonathan sneered with disdain before he left.
Meanwhile, Rocky led his army through the Demon Valley where ferocious demonic beasts were rampant with the help of the Star Beast Ring and the Army-blessing Scroll. They managed to overcome every challenge that came their way despite the multiple dangers they encountered.
Three days later, Rocky was near the gate that led to the alien world. They didn't rush in. Instead, they found an area that would be easy to defend but difficult for their enemies to penetrate. Meanwhile, Marcia and Sabina began to investigate the terrain surrounding the Demon Valley and how the Shura Race formed its troops.
A few hours later, Rocky and the other leaders gathered around the newly built sand table placed at the camp's center.
"According to our investigation, the area within a five hundred meter radius of the alien world's gate is completely guarded by the Shura Race. The northwest side of the gate is deliberately left unguarded to serve as a passage for us to enter. Once we enter, it will surely be blocked. By then, there will be no way out." Pointing at the sand table, Marcia began to analyze their current situation.
"What about the forces of the Shura Race?" Rocky asked.
"According to my observation, there are at least three thousand members in their troop. There may be more ambushes awaiting us. However, what's most worrying is that almost all the Shura Race members are spirit warriors. Although most of them have only reached the primary stage of the Spirit Realm, their fighting abilities easily surpass those of ordinary soldiers. I'm afraid we don't have any advantage over them in terms of overall fighting power," Marcia added to her analysis.
"It seems this battle was doomed from the start." Rocky's eyes turned cold.
"If Canaan is there, I'll have a go at him. Although there will certainly be immense danger and difficulty involved!" Colton roared.
"We have two goals. The first goal is to open the gate to the alien world and return to the original world. The second goal is to capture Canaan to avenge the Chief of the Di Clan. But we can't risk so many lives. We need to leave a way out for our troops!" Rocky pointed out.
"Do you have a plan, Basil?" Marcia asked.
"Do you remember the strategy we used when we rushed into the imperial palace to rescue the holy maiden—luring that tiger away from its cave?" Rocky looked at her and asked.
