"I've known from the start that you will never let us down!" Marcia said as she faintly smiled, making her beautiful face a lot more attractive. Right now, she was feeling genuine bliss from the bottom of her heart. Being able to see Rocky again gave her great comfort and courage. Ever since they got into the Supreme Ether Land, she had been trying her best to protect their comrades. Hence, upon seeing him, she thought that all her hardships weren't in vain.
"I'm also very happy that everyone is safe, but we don't have the time to celebrate yet. The most important thing right now is to get you guys out of here." Rocky stressed. He had always been level-headed and the kind that could easily weight the priority in any kind of situation.
Hearing this, Marcia regained her composure and calmly said, "Yes, you are right. So, how many soldiers are there in the rescue team?"
"About ten thousand," Rocky quickly replied.
"Only ten thousand, huh?" Marcia repeated as she shook her head. Currently, there were about thirty thousand soldiers from the spiritual race's army that besieged the Sky Fog Plain. On the other hand, Marcia had already lost more than half of her people after the enemies attacked them. So, right now, there were only about ten thousand soldiers left on her side. Therefore, even with the members of the rescue team, they would still be outnumbered.
"Well, among those ten thousand members of the rescue team, three of them are spiritual kings whose Spiritual Infants have already reached the advanced stage, and that includes me," Rocky said as he tried to be optimistic.
"Oh, really? You have already reached that far?" Marcia answered in surprise. Those who possessed a Spiritual Infant at the advanced stage were considered to be powerful masters among the human race. Moreover, if they were able to reach the Emperor Realm, they would become even more formidable. Since all of them had almost entered the Supreme Ether Land at the same time, Marcia was a bit shocked to learn that Rocky already had a Spiritual Infant at the advanced stage. Of course, it was a great feat that was not easy to accomplish.
"Why are you so surprised? Your Spiritual Infant should be at the advanced stage too, right?" Rocky was confident about this because he was well-aware that Marcia's talent was not at all inferior to his. Moreover, she possessed the spiritual race's bloodline, so she should have easily enhanced her Spiritual Infant to the advanced stage.
With a faint smile, Marcia just nodded slightly.
"By the way, have you already integrated the martial spirit?" Rocky asked.
"The members of the spiritual race were born with a spiritual soul, so I didn't really need to fuse with a martial spirit to improve my strength," Marcia replied straightforwardly.
"I see. Then what about Sabina?" Rocky asked again as he turned to Sabina this time.
"Well, encountering a martial spirit is very rare. So, no, I haven't done it yet," Sabina answered with a bitter smile.
"Not a problem. Come with me to the Magic Spiritual Space," Rocky quickly urged.
"Huh? What for?" Sabina furrowed her brows and stared at Rocky in confusion.
"Just come with me. You will know when we get there," Rocky said with a faint smile and immediately opened the Magic Spiritual Space.
Left with no choice, Sabina entered the Magic Spiritual Space with Rocky.
Then, upon entering the space, Rocky summoned all the martial spirits that he had hidden there.
At the sight of this, Sabina was obviously stunned. She did not expect that Rocky would be able to gather all of these martial spirits. But then, after a while, she just smiled and thought that considering how talented Rocky really was, nothing would be impossible for him.
"So, you have a lot to choose from. Pick a martial spirit that you think will be the most suitable one for you. For now, I'm going to head out and discuss with Marcia how we could break out of the enemy encirclement. I'll come back for you in a while," Rocky remarked.
Then, Sabina heaved a deep breath and instantly began to search for the best one among the martial spirits there.
With this, Rocky left the Magic Spiritual Space first.
"I could see that you have experienced a lot of adventures in this world. Am I right?" Marcia asked with a smile. After Rocky quickly offered Sabina to get into his Magic Spiritual Space, she was sure that he should have gained a lot of things that Sabina could benefit from.
"Well, yeah. Sort of..." Rocky answered as he scratched his head lightly. Then, he continued, "Anyway, your tactic to lure the enemy army into the empty valley is really brilliant. Because of the thick fog, the spiritual race's army haven't noticed that you have already retreated from your original defensive position yet. However, once they discover this and they attack, everyone will be in danger because of this area's terrain."
