Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 409 Surgery
"You know the Magic Spiritual Space, Sue? It gives me the impression that you really learned a lot when you were around Isis,” Rocky said as he was caught on the hop. Sue could tell from his move that he was opening the Magic Spiritual Space. Rocky hadn't expected that.
"I've seen Miss Isis performed it before. She even taught me a mental cultivation method,” Sue said as she held out one hand, faint spiritual power glimmering on her palm. She already had some semblance of a spirit manipulator.
"It seems you are close to the second grade of the Mortal Stage." Rocky arched one brow, feeling a little surprised that Isis had taught Sue the method of mental cultivation.
"It's not even close to what you can accomplish. I still need to work on it. I haven't scratched the surface. Miss Isis told me that a spirit manipulator could only be counted as a master after reaching the Heavenly Stage,” Sue said, gazing at Rocky admiringly.
"I'm flattered. I'd be indebted to you if you don't tell Isis that I have reached the Heavenly Stage," Rocky said, knowing that if Isis heard that he had progressed so fast, he would definitely get the third degree from her.
Just then, the Magic Spiritual Space opened, and out came four beasts. They packed into the courtyard, jumping and sprinting after being closed in the Magic Spiritual Space for so long. Rocky's Magic Spiritual Space was the size of a farm, but there was nothing inside it. The four beasts couldn't come upon anything to amuse themselves there, so they just slept most of the time.
Sue's mouth dropped opened when she caught sight of the four beasts, especially Rubygon now a head taller than her.
"Bet they give you goose pimples, right?" Rocky grinned. Musical peals of laughter came thick and fast.
"Rubygon is growing up honestly in double-quick time. Look at the size of it! All these are your spirit-manipulated beasts? Here are four of them. Miss Isis told me that a spirit manipulator could only have one spirit-manipulated beast. But you have four!” Sue seemed a little confused.
"I have my ways." Rocky smiled enigmatically.
Rubygon gave a delighted shout at the sight of Sue. It leaned close to lick at her face, and she giggled.
"Is this one your new spirit-manipulated beast? It's adorable. It reminds me of when Rubygon was young." Sue's eyes lit up when she caught a glimpse of the Ghostly Ice Fox-wolf draping itself on top of the Rainbow Glow Unicorn.
"You could say that." Rocky nodded to her.
"When can I have so many spirit-manipulated beasts like you?" Sue asked hopefully.
"You will get your chance as long as you work on your aim. Speaking of which, I have two primary- grade Dark Heaven Eggs. They can help you cultivate. I would have reserved more for you if I knew that you were learning the mental cultivation.” He reached into his silk bag and brought out his last two primary-grade Dark Heaven Eggs. This kind of low-graded treasures was easy to find in the Myriad Beasts Ground. He would have collected more for Sue if he had known her situation. "Primary-grade Dark Heaven Eggs. That is very rare, isn't it? I can't accept this. You should keep them, Mr. Bai." Sue had heard it from Isis that the Dark Heaven Eggs were produced by wild spirit- manipulated beasts named Dark Heaven Insects. They were precious treasures and could be used to enhance the spirit manipulator's spiritual power. So Rocky's gift of two primary-grade Dark Heaven Eggs was very valuable. She couldn't just accept it.
What Sue didn't know was that primary-grade Dark Heaven Eggs were easy pickings for Rocky now. "That's nothing. I will get you something of higher quality when you reach the Earthly Stage. Primary-grade Dark Heaven Eggs are now of little use to me. Take them and use them in your cultivation. You haven't gotten any spirit-manipulated beast yet, right? Let me get one for you from Sheridan later,” He continued as he thrust the two primary-grade Dark Heaven Eggs into her hand. "Thank you so much, Mr. Bai!" Sue said gratefully, her eyes glittering with mixed and intense emotions.
"You consider me your brother. I'm just doing what a brother should do. There is no need to thank me. It's my responsibility to make sure that you live a happy life. It is the least I can do for your grandpa,” Rocky sighed. Every time he laid his eyes on Sue, he couldn't help feeling conscience- stricken. He always had the notion that if he had shown up earlier at that time, Sue's grandpa wouldn't have died.
"I know." Sue nodded. A sad look flashed across her face, then vanished. She looked up at Rocky and gave him a comforting smile.
"Well, I'll head to Sheridan and get a spirit-manipulated beast for you now," Rocky said as he commanded the four beasts back into his Magic Spiritual Space. Then he set off towards the beast farm.
He entered the beast farm and was greeted by the sound of hundreds of beast shouting at the top of their voices. In the middle of the farm was Sheridan, who was healing a war dragon and seemed to have some setbacks. The war dragon's skin was tinged with orange, and it was smaller than a normal war dragon.
"You look troubled. What's wrong, Sheridan? Your brows are knitting together.” Arching one brow, Rocky wended his way to him.
"Glad you are here, Rocky. Come here and take a look at this war dragon.” Sheridan turned and saw Rocky, which brought a smile to his face. He waved Rocky closer.
Rocky stopped beside Sheridan and observed this orange war dragon. Its right leg was swollen badly and its body was convulsing violently, but it was still conscious.
"How long has it been in this condition?" Rocky asked Sheridan.
"It's been half a month. At the beginning, it just couldn't walk normally. Then its leg swelled up. A few days ago it began convulsing like this and couldn't eat or drink. I used various treatments but none of them worked. I'm afraid that it won't last three days if it keeps going like this,” Sheridan said with anxiety written all over his raddled face.
"It sounds like edema. The muscles and nerves in its right leg may have suffered severe injuries. Many nerves are severed inside, causing the secretion disorder of the nerve system. A substantial amount of blood and water accumulates in its right leg.” A brief investigation was all Rocky needed; then he made the conclusion quickly. He had seen too many cases like this in the northeast military camp.
"Is there any way we can heal it?" Sheridan inquired.
"It requires surgery.” Rocky stroked his chin thoughtfully.
"Surgery? Well, do whatever you have to! This war dragon is a member of the Elite Regiment. It will ruin my reputation if I can't cure it," Sheridan urged. He had treated many beasts but never came across a situation like this one. He had no idea what to do until Rocky was here.
