"That sounds amazing. Please, give it to me." Rocky's eye's glimmered with excitement.
As soon as the words left his mouth, the guardian waved his hand and a lotus-shaped lantern on the side of the palace flew towards him. There was a soft glow emanating from the lantern.
Rocky immediately reached out his hand and caught it. "How does it work?"
"Once you activate the lantern with your spiritual power, your demonic souls can materialize and move freely wherever the light reaches," the guardian explained. "What's more," he continued, "this lantern can absorb spiritual power. Once it reaches a certain level, it'll become a very powerful divine treasure."
Rocky nodded. Then, without dillydallying any further, he left the palace, lantern in hand.
"It's time to see what this thing is capable of!" The second he returned to the compass array, Rocky immediately activated the lantern with his spiritual power.
The lantern roared to life and hovered in the air like a bright beacon, its light covering a hundred meter radius.
Rocky willed his spiritual power to its fullest potential and the overflow of energy turned into light that enveloped his entire body.
Without missing a beat, Rocky then created three demonic souls.
Finally satisfied, Rocky and his three demonic souls rushed at the compass array, charging into battle.
As they approached, beast spirits emerged from within the array, hissing and growling at them. The second the four got close, they were met by some serious foes.
Despite the strength of these beast spirits, they were no match for Rocky and his three souls.
Beast spirit upon beast spirit fell by their hands.
Despite this, countless new beast spirits kept swarming from the compass array like a burst pipe.
From afar, Colton and several elders all wore grim expressions when they heard that Rocky was trying to break the compass array.
"I never thought he'd run into it so soon. This is one of the most powerful arrays in the entire Divine Spiritual Land!"
"Truly, this is quite shocking. If it were any other array, he might've stood a chance. But this is the compass array we're talking about; he's in big trouble now!" The elders broke out into a heated discussion. Most were convinced Rocky was going to fail.
"Even though this compass array is powerful, it's not that difficult to break. A Spiritual Emperor who is proficient in arrays would be able to do it." Colton, however, was a firm believer in Rocky's abilities.
"But even if he could defeat all these beast spirits, he'd be too wiped out to destroy the array. He'd need to be as powerful as a high-grade Spiritual Emperor. This will be no easy feat," one of the elders responded.
"Well, I guess we shall see," Colton said calmly.
Two hours later, the last of the beast spirits fell. Not a single beast spirit was left.
Rocky beamed excitedly. However, just as he was about to finish this round off, a purple ray of light shot into the sky from the center of the compass array. The ground began to shake violently, which would've sent shivers down anyone's spine.
"It's time to face the boss!" Rocky, however, was smiling gleefully, as though he was about to have a pleasant meal.
