Ascent of Hero on the Dragon Throne

"How dare you talk back to me? I'm a king! Give up your body before I make you suffer! Back when I fought with Divine King Belial, that bastard destroyed my flesh body and sealed my spiritual soul. Fortunately, I managed to use a technique that fused my remaining power with my spiritual soul. Now, I'm just waiting for my chance to be reborn. As long as I can possess a flesh body, I can come back to life!" the shadow, claiming to be a king, boasted and threatened Rocky.

Hearing this, Rocky immediately thought to himself, 'This ghost has genuine enmity towards Divine King Belial. This is bad. Since it was able to fight Divine King Belial, it means that I'm in grave danger! I will surely die if I can't get out of here as soon as possible.'

Pondering on these thoughts, Rocky gritted his teeth and glanced at the exit of the stone chamber. The chamber itself was an enchanted barrier. If he was able to leave and close the door, no matter how powerful the shadow was, it shouldn't be able to break free from the barrier. This was Rocky's only chance to escape. However, he hadn't retrieved Glutton's corpse yet, and he couldn't just leave without it. All his efforts would be in vain if he failed to take it out.

Meanwhile, the amber stone was still cracking, and more thick gray smoke rose and merged with the shadow. With this, the aura of the shadow became more and more powerful. Surging dark energy had started to cover the entire chamber.

"Hey, brat, think carefully before you make a move. If you just obediently surrender your body to me, I promise to leave your soul intact." The shadow could almost read what was in Rocky's mind just by looking at the expression in his eyes.

However, Rocky wasn't the type to just give up in the face of overwhelming adversaries. He made up his mind and suddenly rushed towards the corpse of Glutton, releasing a strong evil power from within his body. This turned into an evil light that dashed forth and collided with the seal on the corpse in just the blink of an eye.

Instantly, the seal on the corpse was removed. Then, a demonic power gushed and flowed like a raging wave that spread out all over the c

ved Glutton's corpse into his Magic Spiritual Space, he suddenly rushed towards the door of the chamber to escape. Since the shadow failed to possess his body, it was now his perfect opportunity to run away.

Seeing what Rocky was trying to do, the shadow quickly chased after him. However, it was not completely unsealed from the amber stone yet, and thus, it was held back just before it was able to grab Rocky.

With that, Rocky was able to successfully get out of the stone chamber. Then, he immediately gathered the evil power and activated the door on both sides with his hands. The stone door piled up in the middle and created a loud rumbling sound, trapping the shadow inside.

Rocky didn't even stop to breathe but hurriedly dashed and left the Evil King Hall.

"Damn it! I was so close!" Inside the chamber, the shadow kept on cursing angrily after Rocky had barely escaped from its grasp. In its frustration, the chamber began to shake violently.

"That sneaky bastard! If I just possessed his body, I would be able to fully release the power that was sealed in my spiritual soul. Why the hell does he have the Oracle Jade of Divine King Belial?!" The shadow was so disappointed at the missed opportunity. Then, suddenly, it looked at the darkness of the chamber and said coldly, "Show yourself. Do you think I won't be able to notice you?"

Immediately after, a man in a red robe emerged from the darkness of the chamber.
