The spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage with their spirit-manipulated beasts ran after Rocky. But they didn't go forward as Rocky stopped. Keeping a fair distance from Rocky may be safer at the moment. They felt their auras radiate even though they could not physically see each other.
Each of them knew that the other spirit manipulators also wanted to get Rocky's Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds. Besides, the situation was quite clear that the one who launched attacks late would be more likely to earn the seeds without working hard for them.
In the eyes of the spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage, Rocky was a total nobody. Though they didn't know how Rocky got the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, they were sure that Rocky would be unable to maintain the eggs. Therefore, no matter who got the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds from Rocky first, he would definitely become the next target.
They were powerful but they were also just at the Earthly Stage, which meant that a protracted battle would undoubtedly cripple them. As a result, the one who attacked last would have a greater chance obtaining the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds.
In this case, the spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage just waited and watched until someone attacked first.
Time passed and Rocky stood still as well as his fellow spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage stood against him. They were merely observing the movements of Rocky through the chunks of leaves from a distance. They remained in a stalemate, but no one preferred to take the lead to break it.
Surrounded, Rocky understood that the spirit manipulators were waiting to profit from the others' conflicts. That was why he stopped running. Instead of being chased, he stopped and tried to gain the initiative.
Suddenly, a rumble came and instantly, the dense forest over there trembled.
Those spirit manipulators also noticed the abnormal noise and became on guard.
At that point, a beast in the shape of a rhinoceros rushed out of the forest and darted towards Rocky. With a strong aura, it was a wild spirit-manipulated beast at the second grade of three-stars at least.
Immediately, the spirit-manipulated beasts beside the spirit manipulators all howled in fear. The most powerful among them was just at the second grade of two-stars. Instinctively, they looked timid and overcautious faced with a wild spirit-manipulated beast stronger than them.
Actually, the three-star wild spirit-manipulated beast was rare for an ordinary spirit manipulator. The spirit manipulators were powerful themselves. A powerful spirit-manipulated beast would make them even more formidable and fitter for a battle.
The wild spirit-manipulated beast ran into Rocky and the other spirit manipulators were startled. It seemed that the wild spirit-manipulated beast came for the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds and Rocky's fellow spirit manipulators thought he would be freaked out or even doomed in the blink of an eye.
What they cared about the most was the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, not Rocky's safety. If the wild spirit-manipulated beast swallowed Rocky together with the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds, it would be a big loss for them.
Considering this, without hesitation, the spirit manipulators rushed towards Rocky and they were determined to snatch the Heaven Divine Lotus Seeds before the wild spirit-manipulated beast attempted to swallow it. They had no time to think about how to take the seeds out of the Spiritual Fairyland and had no choice but to discuss it later.
However, they didn't realize they had been taken in by Rocky. In fact, the three-star wild spirit-manipulated beast was lured by the magical saliva in the bottle with him which he opened when he stopped.
