The superior power and more skillful spiritual martial arts of the timber spirit manipulator easily dominated Rocky. Only the assistance of the Dark Heaven Insect Queen prevented Rocky's total defeat from his opponent.
The intense battle and the effects of the Centipede-snake's venom had almost completely exhausted the Dark Heaven Insect Queen. Rocky was almost at the same state after the intense battle with the timber spirit manipulator.
"This timber spirit manipulator is truly powerful. His spiritual race, naturally born with the power of thunder, makes him a truly formidable foe. Each attack required an enormous amount of power to match!" Rocky said to himself as he analyzed the powerful opponent before him. If the power of the Holy Dragon Bead had not been sealed, then Rocky would probably have a chance to salvage the encounter. However, this was not the reality of the situation.
Uriah and Rubygon had both almost reached their limits as they fought the Jumbo Horned Beetle. This made the situation even worse for Rocky.
If the fight continued the same way, Rocky knew that they would all be doomed. The only choice, it seemed, was to come up with a maneuver that would take the opposing spirit manipulator by surprise. Otherwise, absolute defeat would be the only fate that waited for them.
"Death is upon you now!" the Timber spirit manipulator exclaimed as he skillfully executed another martial arts maneuver. His spiritual power of Thunder nature took the shape of a ferocious shadow wolf that charged at Rocky as soon as it completely materialized.
The attack was impossible to meet head on, this Rocky knew full well. He moved away from the approaching attack at the last minute to avoid getting blind-sided by any follow-up attack. Rocky turned after avoiding the attack at the last minute towards the timber spirit manipulator. His opponent let out a maniacal laugh and then disappeared into thin air.
The timber spirit manipulator immediately materialized beside him and exclaimed, "Thunder Chains!" before Rocky could do anything.
A link of chains that crackled with electrical energy, materialized and bound Rocky! Rocky felt like he was struck by a jolt of electricity! He was paralyzed and was unable to move!
The shock brought by the energy of the chain severely limited Rocky's movement and his opponent took advantage of this. He slammed his palm directly at Rocky's chest. The force sent Rocky backwards. He fell to the ground in a heap and spat out blood.
"Ha-ha..." The Thunder Chains prevented Rocky from making a counterattack. The timber spirit manipulator walked towards Rocky and attacked him with a Thunder Bursts Strike as Rocky stood up. This sent Rocky flying backwards once more and falling to the ground. Rocky looked crestfallen and dispirited.
Rocky took control of himself and used the momentum of his fall to get himself into a standing position. He glared at the timber spirit manipulator with a challenging look.
"Damn! You have a will of steel!" the Timber spirit manipulator said as his face grew ominous.
"And you're pathetic," Rocky replied, as he wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth.
These words mocked the timber spirit manipulator and he seethed with anger. His eyes grew wild with unbridled enmity. He charged at Rocky as he activated his power to its full. He looked determined to kill Rocky with his next attack.
