The Medallion

Chapter 1127 His Soul Might Disappear (Part Two)

"Does it mean that my sister actually broke the taboo curse of the spiritual race?" Moira murmured to herself. She didn't know what to think as she was consumed by a myriad of emotions.

"This is bad. Someone has been able to get free from the mixed blood curse of the human and the spiritual race. If any other clans of the spiritual race know of this, the consequences would be dire!" Rex said as he broke in a cold sweat.

"That's right. We must do something. We cannot let them leave the Dragon Master Clan alive!"

The two elders beside Rex had reached an agreement. They wanted to keep Marcia's breakthrough a secret, so they needed to silence her. Without a second thought, the two of them flew in the air and rushed towards Marcia and Rocky.

Marcia sneered as she saw the two elders viciously rushing towards them. She immediately gathered her spiritual power, and suddenly, a huge dragon shadow, as red as blood, dashed out. It was covered in blood-like streaks and patterns all over its body and possessed an overwhelming power that seemed like it could destroy the whole world. Moreover, the aura it carried was no less than that of the ancient spiritual beast summoned by Rocky earlier.

Upon seeing this, the two incoming elders couldn't help but stop in their tracks. Disbelief and horror were written all over their faces.

"What the hell is that huge beast?" Rex's eyes also widened in shock.

Then, a low, deep, and booming voice suddenly reached everyone's ears. It seemed that it came from a distance, but the voice was loud and clear. "Holy-blood Dragon King! One of the nine legendary guardian beasts and the sole legendary guardian beast of the Dragon Master Clan! Congratulations, my daughter! You were finally able to remove the despicable curse! It must be the will of Heavens!"Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

All the members of the spiritual race looked around with a terrified expression on their faces. Upon recognizing whose voice it was, they all turned and looked at the direction of the Dead Valley.

"Father? Is it father's voice?" Marcia's body trembled violently. It had been too long since she yearned for the day that she could see her father again. With her current strength, it felt like it wouldn't take long before it became real.

Even Moira started to shake intensely. She could not believe that her sister would be the one to unleash the legendary guardian beast of the Dragon Master Clan.

"This is the Holy-blood Dragon King? This is inconceivable! Why would the legendary guardian beast take a half-spirit and half-human being as its master?"

"It is said that the spiritual master who can control and possess the legendary guardian beast is the chosen one by God himself. He or she is destined to become the head of all the clans of the spiritual race! Simply put, the legendary guardian beast is the symbol of the king!"

"Who would expect that the daughter of the former patriarch will be the master of the legendary guardian beast of the Dragon Master Clan? No one could really fathom the will of the Heavens."

The members of the Dragon Master Clan started whispering to each other. It didn't matter whether they were Rex's supporters or members of the Mu Clan. All of them gazed at Marcia, mesmerized by her elegance and strength. Everyone knew that the legendary guardian beast played a crucial role in the Dragon Master Clan. Upon witnessing its majestic appearance, everyone stopped their fighting, knowing deep inside that the rightful ruler had already appeared before their eyes.

It was tough for Rex to accept the situation. He quickly composed himself and fixed his eyes on the Holy-blood Dragon King, which was exuding a domineering aura that could make everyone bow down.

"Hey, you two! Hurry up! We can't waste any time. Go and catch that human bastard. We must get the spiritual treasure from him at once!" Rex ordered. Now that Marcia had gotten a hold of the Holy-blood Dragon King, he should at least prevent her from getting her hands on the spiritual treasure too. The moment she acquired the two powerful holy treasures, all the other members of the Dragon Master Clan would inevitably acknowledge her and stand by her side. Moreover, the Mu Clan had already been revived. If everyone started supporting her, then Rex's position as the patriarch would be greatly threatened.

Therefore, he needed to do everything he could to stop Marcia getting the spiritual treasure.

With this, the two elders also agreed and continued to attack Rocky and Marcia.

"Blood moon!" Marcia immediately unleashed a spell in a low voice.

As the Holy-blood Dragon King received Marcia's summon, its entire body emanated blood-red lights that instantly turned the sky into a dark and bloody malevolent color. Then, two blood moons emerged up in the sky. These were two enormous moon-shaped wheels of fire that blazed ferociously. They were ten meters wide, and their flames constantly intertwined in the wind. They encircled the Holy- blood Dragon King and stormed towards the charging elders.

At the same time, the two elders also called forth their guardian beasts, which were also ginormous dragons that almost covered the sky. One was enveloped with extremely poisonous smoke, and the other one was condensed from ice crystals, like a frozen river that emitted a staggering chilly air.

The two guardian beasts also stunned the onlookers.

Immediately after, the powerful guardian beasts pounced on the Holy-blood Dragon King and started a savage battle. However, the Holy-blood Dragon King was on a different level. With the two blazing moon-shaped wheels around it, it was able to handle the simultaneous assaults of the two eight-star guardian beasts.

At the same time, the two elders launched their attacks against Marcia herself.

However, two of the elders from the Mu Clan also took action and blocked them before they got to Marcia.

"Leave these two old-timers to me!" one of the two elders said to the other. "Go ahead and get to those two brats quickly!" Then, he didn't waste any time and turned towards the two elders of the Mu Clan.

With this opening, the other elder of the Dragon Master Clan rushed to Marcia and Rocky at lightning speed.

"Marcia! Hand over the boy behind you. The Dragon Master Clan is the only rightful owner of the spiritual treasure!" the elder threatened as he asked for the spiritual treasure.

"Nonsense! This spiritual treasure is a forbidden object. It is nobody's property. It is I who obtained it from the forbidden area, so it stays with me!" Rocky snapped back with a sneer.

"You insolent brat! Then I have no choice but to kill you! Don't ever think that you'll be able to return to the Holy Dragon Empire without handing the spiritual treasure to us!" the elder roared angrily. Suddenly, a strong spiritual power surged out from his body like a wild storm, causing extensive lashing whirlwinds. The power of the elders from the Dragon Master Clan could never be underestimated.

Then, out of the blue, Rocky felt a sudden sharp pain in his head. He immediately grabbed his head and even pulled his hair slightly in order to somehow alleviate the pain.

Noticing that Rocky suddenly seemed to be in pain, Marcia asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Are you all right?"

"It's nothing. Just a headache." Rocky shook his head and acted like the pain was very manageable. However, the truth was that the piercing pain in his head was still getting worse at each passing

second. It was as if his head was being split open or was about to explode.

Hearing Rocky's response, Marcia didn't pry anymore and got ready to fight. The elder was already getting closer and she knew that it would be a tough battle.

Even though her opponent was an experienced elder, Marcia didn't show any hint of fear.

Immediately after, the two engaged in a fierce battle that shook the area. They were almost evenly matched and no one was able to get the upper hand.

Meanwhile, Moira and Rex also started their own fight as if re-enacting their unfinished business a moment ago. Around them, the atrocious battle between the members of the Mu Clan and the Dragon Master Clan also ensued. Since the Mu Clan had been really preparing for this day and had an advantage in terms of number, they gradually edged the other side.

All of a sudden, Rocky, who was on the sidelines and watching the battle between Marcia and the elder, felt a hazy sensation as if he was being engulfed by darkness. When he was able to see clearly again, he saw a figure in front of him—a soul to be more specific. It seemed familiar and he knew that it wasn't the first time he saw it. He then remembered that time when he encountered it in the mirror upon arriving at this world. However, this time, he could easily tell that it was looking at him with strong loathing and disgust.

"Wait. I know you… You're Basil!" Rocky soon realized who he was looking at. His voice and body trembled in shock due to what he just witnessed.

Right after Rocky shouted, the whole dark space suddenly became distorted. Countless images began surrounding him—pictures and memories that he hadn't seen before. In these images, most scenes showed the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire when he was young, a gentle and beautiful woman, and Lena, who was still a little girl.

'Are these Basil's memories? It seems that the mysterious man I met in the Dead Valley was right. Basil's soul is about to wake up. It must be the reason why I am seeing his memories. But why? Is this an effect of using too much power earlier? If this goes on, my soul might disappear sooner or later.' As he was pondering on these thoughts, Rocky's heartbeat raced, making him feel a little nauseous. He was a little scared of the thought that the time might come when his soul and consciousness would inevitably fade away.

Needless to say, the disappearance of one's soul would mean real death. Although he should have died in the accident back when he was in the modern world, his rebirth in Basil's body gave him a new life. As he lived in this world, he also met a lot of people that he cared dearly.

If he was to pick, he would rather lose his power than disappear in this world.
