The Medallion

"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.
