"The enchanted barrier of the Demon Sealing Palace was established through the power of the gods of the Holy-Evil World. Only powerful demons are able to get past the barrier. However, if one possesses a holy treasure from the demonic race or the divine race, they have the chance to overcome the barrier," Anya said. "For example, the God-killing Sword that you have is a holy treasure of the divine race. Its original owner was Deacon, one of the gods of the Holy-Evil World."
"So, in short, I can use the God-killing Sword to open the enchanted barrier that seals off the Demon Sealing Palace," Rocky assumed based on Anya's words. He was actually surprised that the God-killing Sword was, in fact, a key that could unravel the enchanted barrier of the Demon Sealing Palace.
"Yes, that is right. That is the sole reason why King Corey was summoned to this place," Anya affirmed, nodding her head lightly.
"I see. Then, I have to be more careful from here on." Rocky realized that he was lucky to accidentally break the shackles in the area and release Anya in the process. Otherwise, he would've made mistakes since he didn't know any information about the palace. However, he was also quite confused by the fact that Mikayla didn't warn him about such a thing.
"Argh!" While Rocky was still talking with Anya, they suddenly heard a loud roar from afar.
Rocky quickly recognized that it came from Rubygon. At the same time, its roar sounded as if it was not in a good situation, so he rushed out in a hurry and headed to the area where he left Valeria and Rubygon.
Not long after, he saw that Valeria and Rubygon were surrounded by a group of martial spirits that he had released.
Seeing that they were in danger, Rocky immediately took out the God-killing Sword and unleashed its powerful holy power. Upon sensing this, the martial spirits instantly trembled in fear and quickly dispersed in various directions.
"Are you okay? Were you hurt?" Rocky asked as soon as he landed beside Valeria.
"No, I'm fine. But where did those martial spirits come from? They just suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and they are all very powerful!" Fortunately, Rocky made it in time, but Valeria was still a bit shaken. At this moment, she was trying to calm herself by taking deep breaths.
"Sorry. It was actually me who let them out," Rocky admitted and let out an awkward smile.
"What? It was you?" Valeria was stunned and upset at the same time that she wanted to smack Rocky in the head.
A moment later, Anya also arrived and appeared in front of them.
Seeing the unfamiliar face, Valeria instantly became wary.
"Don't worry, she is not an enemy. Her name is Anya, and she's actually one of your kind. She is one of the ancestors of the Shura Race and got stuck in this place," Rocky explained.
"Did you just say that she's one of our ancestors?" Valeria could not help but exclaim. Obviously, it was more shocking than the fact that Rocky accidentally let out a horde of martial spirits.
"Master, who is she?" Anya glanced at Valeria and turned to Rocky.
"Oh, yeah. This is Valeria, my nominal wife." Rocky then introduced Valeria.
"Madam! I'm sorry I didn't know." Anya's tone instantly became very respectful upon learning who Valeria was.
"No, please don't call me like that. It sounds very awkward to me. Besides, you are my ancestor. I should actually be the one who shows more respect. Please just call me Valeria." Valeria was so flattered that she did not feel too comfortable with it.
"What? I can't do that. Master has inherited King Corey's holy power. Since you are his wife, then you also are my master," Anya replied firmly. She still stayed respectful towards Valeria for Rocky's sake.
"Ha-ha! I know this would happen." Rocky could not stop laughing after hearing the conversation between the two.
"What are you laughing at? This is not funny at all! Tell her to address me normally!" Valeria quickly glared at Rocky for making fun of her and Anya.
