"Basil and my master are there..." Sabina, accompanied by two other women, was the first to spot Rocky, Marcia, and Bart. Her face turned pale when she saw that they were besieged.
Hundreds of members of the Dragon Master Clan and the Butterfly Divine Clan, led by Moira and Cherry, rushed forward and cleared a bloody path toward Rocky and the others.
"Basil, master, are you all right?" Sabina was the first to rush forward and ask. Concern reflected in her tone and expression as she turned her gaze at Rocky and Marcia.
"We are fine," Marcia replied with a shake of her head.
"Marcia, you go first. I'll cover you," Moira, who had just arrived, instructed Marcia and Rocky.
"No, you leave with Marcia and Sir Bart first. I'll take care of the rest..." Rocky refused firmly as he glanced at Moira.
When Alston saw reinforcements of the Dragon Master Clan and the Butterfly Divine Clan appear, his expression turned grim, and fury coursed through him.
"What are you waiting for? Kill them all!" Alston thundered.
Soon, thousands of members of the Heavenly Demon Clan, led by several elders and spiritual masters, rushed forward like a tide.
"Leave now!" Driven by a sense of urgency, Rocky turned and called out to Moira and the others. Then he summoned his two beasts to welcome the dense charging crowd of the Heavenly Demon Clan.
"Master, what should we do..." Sabina appeared anxious as she looked at Marcia.
"Listen to him," Marcia said at once as she nodded to Moira and Cherry.
The next moment, Marcia and the other women, and hundreds of members of the Dragon Master Clan and the Butterfly Divine Clan rushed toward the borders of the Heavenly Demon Clan's territory.
"Two patriarchs, please hold him back. Once I gather the power of the Dark King Mace, I will give him a fatal blow!" Now that Rocky was alone, Alston grabbed the chance to instruct the patriarchs of the Ghost Master Clan and the Giants Clan. A sinister smile tugged at the corners of his lips as he thought how devastating his attack would be.
The two patriarchs looked at each other and exchanged a subtle nod. A split second later, the patriarchs, the elders, and the spiritual masters of the Heavenly Demon Clan rushed toward Rocky to suppress him.
Rocky, however, seemed prepared. After Marcia and the others moved a few hundred meters away, the black flame behind him surged, transformed into wings, and rose into the sky. Suspended in the air, Rocky moved his left hand forward, and a ball of nine-colored divine light levitated over his palm.
Everyone gasped as the nine-colored divine light was the Divine Spiritual Source!
"Bloom! Divine Spiritual Source!" Rocky roared as he raised the Divine Spiritual Source in his hand. It emitted a dazzling light, like colorful fireworks that illuminated the whole night sky.
Marcia and others who were fleeing were surprised by the sudden luminosity and turned. The intense brightness almost blinded them!
"Run!" Understanding flashed through Marcia, and she urged the others to move faster. She knew that Rocky had activated the power of the Divine Spiritual Source and that it would be dangerous for them if they lingered.
A moment later, the entire Heavenly Demon Clan's ground was enveloped by the nine-colored divine light. Not a sound could be heard as deathly silence descended!
After a while, the nine-colored divine light slowly dissipated. None of the Heavenly Demon Clan lair buildings were in sight. Only ruins could be seen, and debris was scattered everywhere.
