The Medallion novel Chapter 1851

"It appears that we're far behind. No wonder we didn't see anyone else along the way. I guess the spot where we teleported to is at the farthest edge of the Ghostly Demon Land. However, this will work to our advantage since someone is clearing a way for us and helping us avoid a lot of trouble," Rocky inferred calmly.

"But despite that advantage, won't we be in further danger if we bump into Prince Zain or Prince Enoch? Don't you think so?" Valeria asked, her brows furrowed. These candidates were competing for the position of successor to the Shura Race's current king so, naturally, the three teams were set up against each other the moment they set foot on the Ghostly Demon Land.

"We've overcome all of those dangers along the way. You're well aware of how terrible those ghostly demons can get. We should be less worried about those from our own race and more worried about those monsters, don't you agree?" Rocky shot a fearless smile. Compared to the terrifying ghostly demons from the Ghostly Demon Land, the masters of the Shura Race were nothing to be frightened of at all.

Following the clues the corpse left behind, Rocky and Valeria were now on the tail of the team that had just passed through the area.

Along the way, they discovered more corpses of the Shura Race masters along with the ghostly demons.

Another two days had passed in the blink of an eye.

The duo entered a swamp teeming with immortal ghostly demons that, they soon realized, were like zombies that seemed impossible to eliminate. They now found themselves in a precarious situation. They needed to escape while they still could.

Fortunately, these zombie-like ghostly demons were only active at night. This meant it was relatively safe during the day.

Although Rocky and Valeria had been walking for two days, it seemed that they had only gone through half of the swamp.

"Looks like it will take two or three more days to walk out of here. It's getting dark. Let's find a place to rest," Rocky proposed to her as he observed the sky overhead.

They then began searching for a safe and secluded area. Suddenly, they accidentally came across a base camp.

Rocky instructed Valeria to stay where she was as he quickly hid his aura before cautiously approaching the base camp. He soon discovered that this base belonged to Enoch's team.

He managed to draw closer and sneak in easily under the cover of darkness. He then made his way to the largest tent.

Outside the tent, Rocky hid in a very secluded corner where he eavesdropped on what was happening inside.

"Madam, where on earth is the Demon Sealing Palace? Why haven't we arrived yet despite our long journey?" a low male voice, most likely Enoch's, asked.

"The Demon Sealing Palace is not easy to find. It is quite a mysterious place. To be frank, even I am clueless about its exact location. But I can definitely sense it. We're getting very close." Rocky heard a charming voice reassure an impatient Enoch.

"I've brought numerous powerful warriors with us this trip. We can't return empty-handed. I'm determined to be the next king of the Shura Race to have the chance to revive the demonic race. I hope you will be able to fulfill what you've promised me," Enoch reminded, surprising Rocky who was still stationed outside the tent.

'The demonic race?' Rocky's eyes turned cold when he heard those words. He never expected Enoch to be siding with and working for the demonic race which had long been eliminated in the Holy-Evil World. Also, the only remaining members of that race were confirmed to be mostly weak.

Being the prince of the Shura Race, how did he become brazen enough to proclaim that he would revive the demonic race?

"You can rest assured that I will fulfill my promise to you. But remember that you must first release Philip's soul once you find the Demon Sealing Palace. Otherwise, all of our plans will have been nothing but empty talk! And don't you ever bring up a trifle like that before me next time, boy. If you annoy me one more time, I will massacre the entire Shura Race!" the woman threatened viciously.

'So, this woman is a demoness!' Rocky decided in his mind.

"Please don't be upset, madam! I'm leaving now," Enoch said at once. He was too much of a coward to provoke the mysterious woman any further. Once he managed to calm her down slightly, he prepared to leave the tent.
