Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 1724

When Rocky walked around the screen, he averted his eyes so he wasn't looking directly at Valeria. The last thing he wanted to do was to embarrass her.

"I will give you the black needles and then I will go. It will hurt a little bit," Rocky said as he walked behind her. Then, he took out the black needles and stabbed them into her back as fast as he could.

It didn't take long for Valeria to feel her meridians become smoother.

About five minutes later, Rocky had finished the acupuncture.

"You can rest in the medicated bath now. The black needles that are in your back will guide your spiritual power and help it repair your meridians. It will take about six hours. You must stay here the whole time. You are not allowed to go anywhere else," Rocky ordered.

"Okay." Valeria nodded.

"I have to leave the Ghost Palace for a while, but I'll set up some restrictions to protect you. I want you to rest and let yourself heal. I'll be back just before the six hours are up." Wasting no time, Rocky departed.

Valeria watched his back retreating and sighed. Then she closed her eyes, leaned back in the bathtub, and allowed the needles and medicine to heal her.

After leaving the Ghost Palace, Rocky went to the lake. He didn't want anyone else to come with him because he needed to focus on familiarizing himself with his new power.

Right now, the power that filled his body had already surpassed the limits of the Shura Race. The highest realm he was supposed to be able to reach was the Half-god Realm. If he put in the hard work, he could become a god one day.

It was a long, grueling task to reach the Half-god Realm. The first step was breaking through the Shura Realm and preparing a solid foundation.

Fortunately, Rocky had been able to use the Spiritual Energy Gathering Pill to increase his strength from a Spiritual King to a premium-stage Spiritual Emperor, saving him a lot of time.

But for any cultivator, reaching the peak level was tremendously difficult. It could not be fulfilled overnight. Even the genius of the Shura Race would need at least ten years to break through from the premium stage to the peak level.

Therefore, if Rocky wanted to break through to the peak level, he couldn't rely on his cultivation alone. He would have to find a new method.

He was already talented at gene technology but that was limited to spiritual beasts. The powerhouses in this world were not good at beast taming, let alone cultivating with beasts. Therefore, Rocky's gene technology was useless. At most, he could use it to transform the genes of spiritual beasts to make them stronger.

But the strongest warriors in the Shura Race weren't afraid of spiritual beasts, no matter how powerful they were. That was because the strongest beast was equal to the peak level of a Spiritual Emperor at most and there were very few of those. Beasts normally had power below the premium stage, so they posed no threats to the Shura Race.

After all, there was a large number of Spiritual Emperors in the Shura Race. For example, in teams that were responsible for escorting Godly Geniuses to the Nether Fire Land, there were at least seven or eight Spiritual Emperors. This was evident enough that the Shura Race had strong, talented cultivators on its side.

All of it was bad news for Rocky. He couldn't practice working with genes here.

That was why he had followed Esteban and learned medicine refinement. Refining rare pills could improve his strength, but the materials he needed were also extremely hard to find. A lot of time would be wasted collecting them. It was not a shortcut he could use for breakthrough. It could only be used as an auxiliary method.

"This is going to be a lot harder than I thought. I need a viable shortcut to break through to the peak level faster." Rocky sighed. His head was wrapped up with thoughts but he couldn't sort them and figure out a better way to cultivate.
