The Medallion novel Chapter 1457

Rocky strode over to Tessa's side as though nothing had happened. Placing his hand on her shoulder calmly, he coaxed, "Come one!"

Just then, the martial spirit that had been resisting fusion with Tessa earlier suddenly shot towards her body.

At first, Tessa was too shocked to move. When she finally regained her senses, she quickly took the opportunity to fuse the martial spirit with her body. It didn't take long for her to successfully complete the fusion. Suddenly, her body flashed with a bright spiritual light, and her spiritual aura grew in power.

"You finally merged with it!" Uriel exclaimed in surprise.

About half an hour later, Tessa's spiritual light transformed into a spiritual pillar. When that happened, her spiritual aura also broke through to the King Realm.

"I've succeeded!" At that moment, Tessa opened her eyes excitedly, revealing a trace of pride.

"Congratulations," Miguel muttered. Although he was a bit bitter at her success, he managed to plaster on a fake smile.

"Congratulations, Miss Tessa," Ramon said, clapping his hand on her shoulder chummily.

"This is good," Uriel said with a satisfied nod. "Although it was a little dangerous just now, you managed to complete the fusion smoothly." Then, turning to Rocky, he frowned slightly. "And where did you go earlier? You are so reckless! If you didn't come back, I wouldn't have known how to explain it to the governor..."

"There was an emergency just now," Rocky quickly explained. "So, I needed to do what I thought was best for us. If this made you unhappy, please, forgive me!"

"Well, I'm not angry at you," Uriel said with a sigh. "You were able to buy us enough time to let Tessa fuse with the martial spirit." Rocky had managed to lure away the group of martial spirits, which allowed Tessa to focus. Otherwise, the fusion would've failed and all would've been for naught.

"However, the martial spirit that Tessa fused with is a medium-level one," Uriel said. "Unfortunately, that means the disk's power has been exhausted. So, let's stop here and go back."

Upon hearing that, everyone shook their heads and sighed dejectedly.

Normally, the Spirit-restricting Disk could trap two to three low-grade martial spirits. With a middle-grade martial spirit, however, it could only trap one. Once the power of the disk was used up, it needed a year to recuperate, and only then would it be usable again. Thus, until then, even if one had the chance to return to the Martial Spirit Graveyard, it'd be in vain.

Without dilly-dallying any further, Uriel gathered the members and made preparations to leave the graveyard.

"Elder Uriel, I have an upset stomach," Rocky complained all of a sudden. "You guys can go ahead first. I'll catch up in a bit."

"Then we'll wait for you at the entrance," Uriel said somewhat reluctantly. "Hurry up. Although the spiritual fog has dissipated, that doesn't mean martial spirits won't show up..."

Rocky nodded meekly. He watched as the group left, and waited until they were out of sight. When he felt they were far enough, Rocky retreated to a secluded area and whispered, "You can come out now!"
