Chapter 191 Monkey Nine
Chapter 191 Monkey Nine
"Devouring" was from the Devouring Skill and Devouring Fire; "Wrath" was from Heaven Melting Fire and Chaotic Fire Skill!
This strike was the apex of Ricky's power.
"Bang!"
The collision of sword and saber was like the clash of the torrents of flame and an endless black hole. Waves swept the entire island, and their ripples disturbed the lake of magma! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
From the center of the collision, bright sparks and light burst forth, filling the whole place!
Bang! With a dull sound, a figure flew straight out of the center of the explosion, crossed half of the island, and fell directly into the magma.
Obviously, it was Ricky!
Even he brought up his strongest power, there was no chance for him to beat this assassin of Bone Reinforcement!
Right when Ricky fell into the magma, a cluster of Heaven Melting Fire shot out, wrapping itself like a cage around the assasin of Bone Reinforcement!
The assasin had expected this coming and so didn't care about it. Instead, he just stared directly at the magma where Ricky had landed.
He wanted to know what price Ricky would pay!
"Ha-ha, ha-ha! What a relief!" After a minute, laughter came out from the magma, together with a figure which leaped onto the island. It was, of course, Ricky.
"How coult it be!?" the killer of Bone Reinforcement shut his eyes in disbelief. Was he seeing things? His last blow was supposed to have been fatal to Ricky. Having completed his task, he would have been satisfied to die!
But the fact was that Ricky only acquired a few scrapes!
Closing his eyes, the killer asked himself how it could be possible that such a powerful warrior at the seventh grade of Blood Purification existed in the Realm of Wildness. The young master of the Imperial Palace of Wildness, when he had been at the seventh grade of Blood Purification, was inferior to Ricky! Ricky would be a big threat to the Endless Shadow if he survived today!
....
At that moment, Ricky was in an embarrassing state. His robe had been totally burned and thus he was naked. There was a deep wound on the chest, but none of his internal organs hurt. Blood covered most of his body.
But on the other hand, his energy had reached a higher level than ever before. His power had surpassed the realm of Blood Purification and Ricky himself was now beyond the seventh grade of Blood Purification!
"So it is, if you want to achieve a huge breakthrough in realm and power, you have to fight a battle to the death. The collision just called forth the power beyond the Blood Purification inside me!
If I want to break through and reach the eighth grade of Blood Purification right now, it will be as easy as snapping my fingers!"
Ever since Ricky refined the Heaven Slaughtering Fire and gained its power, he had always been eager to break through and reach a higher level. There was a difference, however. The breakthrough
with the power of the Heaven Slaughtering Fire was only on the grade and his power would be the same as before. Ricky wanted to improve both his grade and his strength.
This breakthrough would make him, a warrior at the eighth grade of Blood Purification, have equal power to a warrior at the first grade of Bone Reinforcement.
Suddenly, his whole body's energy exploded, and the familiar sound of a breakthrough echoed.
With his energy slowly simmering down, Ricky reached the eighth grade of Blood Purification.
Immediately, Ricky seated himself to cultivate, not just to consolidate the realm of the eighth grade of Blood Purification, but also to heal the trauma caused by the collision!
Half a day flew by and Ricky finally came to. The wound on his chest had stopped bleeding.
Then, he put on a set of blue clothes from his storage bag.
Before the departure, he had packed in anticipation for this!
"If only I knew this coming, I think I would have chosen to commit suicide!" the assasin said with resentment, seeing Ricky coming towards him.
"Ha-ha, unfortunately, there is nothing in the Misty South to heal the hurt of regret!" laughed Ricky.
"You are right. Just do it. Maybe being killed by a genius like you is the best way to die!" said the assasin.
"It will be my pleasure to know your name before your death," said Ricky. "Very few of my enemies have impressed me, after all."
"Should I feel honored?" laughed the assasin coldly.
"Whatever you wish to feel!" laughed Ricky.
"No name for assasins, only code names. Mine is Monkey Nine!" he replied.
"Monkey Nine!" muttered Ricky. Suddenly he waved his right hand, and the Heaven Melting Fire around Monkey Nine returned to Ricky.
"What? You want to use me as a punching bag to practice your skill again?" said Monkey Nine coldly, seeing Ricky do this.
"Ha! You think you are qualified to be my sandbag?" grinned Ricky, with no trace of contempt but confidence.
"You..." snorted Monkey Nine, growing speechless.
"If you don't believe, try it out," grinned Ricky.
"Humph!" Quieting down the anger in his heart, Monkey Nine asked, "So, what do you want?"
He could see that Ricky did not seemingly want to kill him. He must want something else.
"What if I say I let you go?" grinned Ricky.
"Let me go?" said Monkey Nine in surprise.
"Yes, I will let you go!" said Ricky.
Monkey Nine was silent after hearing this. From the look on Ricky's face, he could see that he was serious about what he said, not joking in the slightest. Who didn't want to live instead of dying?
However, if he left, it meant that he betrayed Endless Shadow and would be hunted down forever. Once he was caught, death would be inevitable!
....
"What's your condition?" Monkey Nine finally got the courage to ask, after a brief moment of hesitation.
"Ha-ha, what a pleasure to talk to someone who has guts!" Ricky laughed. "Not like the last assasin! Because of his fear of the Endless Shadow, he committed suicide!"
"Maybe, that's a better choice," said Monkey Nine quietly.
"How can it be better? You still have chances as long as you are alive," Ricky said. "Even if you are ready to kill yourself, do it before get caught. It can't be too late to kill yourself!"
"You win. Tell me your terms!" said Monkey Nine quietly.
"Quite simple. Serve me, and I will sapre you," said Ricky.
"Serve you? Monkey Nine asked in surprise. For a moment he was quiet, before he raised his head, said slowly, "I don't think you would need an apprentice like me."
"Why not? I want an apprentice like you very much," smirked Ricky. "What do you think? All I need is an answer and an oath. I never treat my men unjustly. I believe you already know that from Caleb and Elvis."
