Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 74 The Spiritual Energy Gathering Array

"Hasn't anyone ever told you that you look like a fool?" Ricky sneered, staring Jerome down.

To Ricky, it was obvious that Rufus just took advantage of Jerome. But Jerome was blind to this, ready

to be at Rufus' beck and call constantly.

"What are you talking about?" Jerome shouted indignantly at Ricky's insult.

"Can't you hear me? Are you deaf?" Ricky laughed sourly, turning away. He couldn't be bothered to talk

to Jerome anymore.

"Don't be so reckless! You're asking for trouble!

You better apologize to me! And return the Treasures from Heaven and Earth to their rightful owner! If

you don't give them to Rufus, I'm going to beat you to a pulp!" Jerome shouted, rushing to attack Ricky.

His blood vitality and spiritual energy emerged from him in a flash. With his right fist surrounded by his

thunderous power, Jerome struck at Ricky.

'Jerome's punch is much less forceful than Nate's. It appears that it's only been a few days since he

had a breakthrough to Blood Purification!' Ricky thought, assessing the power of Jerome's fist. He was

calm, knowing there was nothing to fear.

Gently pushing Heather aside, Ricky stepped forward and casually threw a punch.

He approached Jerome in the same way he had dealt with Nate. Channeling all his strength and

making use of the devouring runes, Ricky's fist collided against Jerome's in a powerful punch.

"Bang!" With a loud thump, Jerome flew backwards and fell to the ground with a heavy thud.

Rufus was stunned by what he witnessed.

"How can this be!?" he couldn't help but exclaim. Although Jerome wasn't a genius in martial arts, he

was nonetheless an excellent warrior at the first grade of Blood Purification. So how could he have

been knocked down by Ricky with one blow?

As for Jerome, he was flabbergasted. He stared up at Ricky, scared out of wits.

"From now on, you should first figure out whether you stand a chance of defeating your opponent

before you go and try to fight others' battles for them," Ricky said coldly, staring back down at Jerome.

Ricky turned his head to glare at Rufus. "If you want to take revenge on me, you can fight with me

yourself. Or better yet, find a better warrior to do your bidding!" he spat.

With these words, Ricky left with Heather without a backward glance, leaving Rufus and Jerome behind

to watch him walk away.

Rufus growled indignantly, but Jerome still lay sprawled on the ground, completely stunned.

...

After returning to his courtyard, Ricky gathered his things in preparation to trek up to the mountain

where Zenith stayed.

In the Snow Sect, there was a tradition where the mountain the current sect chief lived would be named

after him. Thus the mountain where Zenith lived was named the Zenith Mountain, located right in the

middle of the Snow Sect.

After about two hours, Ricky reached the Zenith Mountain.

The mountain looked like a hill, as it was not so high. A large and magnificent yard stood alone on top

of the mountain. There was a broad area of open land as a plateau, but no other disciples could be

seen for hundreds of meters around.

After entering the mountain, Ricky heard Zenith's voice.

"Ricky, wait there. I'll ask Edgar to take you to meet me!"

Edgar came down, nodded hello, and led Ricky to the yard.

On the way there, Edgar told Ricky that there were many arrays existing on the Zenith Mountain. Even

if an excellent warrior of Bone Reinforcement touched them by accident, they could have the warrior's

body smashed to pieces.

This was the reason Zenith had instructed Edgar to go down to lead Ricky to his place.

At this moment, Zenith was in a small room in the yard, sitting with his legs crossed on the cattail

hassock.

"Ricky, I think you might know why I summoned you here," Zenith spoke, at seeing Ricky's arrival. NôvelDrama.Org content.

"I think it might be because... well... I succeed in cultivating the Nine-degree Body Refining Formula,"

Ricky replied carefully.

"Yes, that's exactly right!" Zenith smiled. "It is the best and most precious cultivation method of the

Snow Sect, but since no one had practiced it for nearly a thousand years, it has been completely

forgotten by most of our warriors.

Consequently, many of them have no clue about the Nine-degree Body Refining Formula."

"Does this cultivation method... belong to the advanced stage of Black Level?" Ricky asked, his eyes

widening.

"It even greatly surpasses the advanced stage of Black Level," Zenith responded, smiling even wider

as he shook his head.

"Is it the cultivation method of Earth Level?"

"You don't have to think about this for the moment. The most pressing thing you must attend to is to

cultivate the Nine-degree Body Refining Formula. But with regards to how you must practice it, I can't

give you any advice.

What I can do is to do my best to try and help you. That's why I summoned you here, Ricky."

Ricky was surprised to hearing these words, his eyes lighting up.

He just received gifts from Elder Mateo, and now Zenith was going to help him become a better warrior!

"The sect chief is an innate spirit, so he might offer me something wonderful or do me a great favor!"

Ricky thought to himself.

Then he asked Zenith expectantly, "How do you plan to help me, Chief Zenith?"

"Well, it seems that you're impatient to find out!" Zenith remarked with a smile, seeing the excitement

on the young man's face.

Zenith waved his hand, and immediately Ricky and Edgar felt their bodies tremble as if the ground

were quaking, before they plunged into total darkness.

When once again their eyes opened, they discovered that they had reached a snow forest in the yard.

'Teleportation! The innate spirit is so powerful. When will I ever be able to have such power?' Ricky

thought with surprise.

What caught Ricky's attention even more was the strong and intense spiritual energy in the snow

forest.

When he focused on this energy, he could sense that its intensity was at least twenty times more than

that of any place he had ever been.

And the spiritual energy here was very pure, almost without any imperfections...

Ricky gently took a breath and stayed relaxed. He allowed the pores of his skin to open, and with this

he could feel that his strength also increased.

"Chief Zenith, this is..." Ricky exclaimed.

Edgar also shouted in amazement, "Master Zenith, this place is..."

"It is a Spiritual Energy Gathering Array!" Zenith's voice said, floating through the air.

"What is Spiritual Energy Gathering Array?" Ricky asked.

"The Spiritual Energy Gathering Array is the array drawn and created by the array deployer to gather

the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The spiritual energy inside the array zone is over ten

times more intense than that of other place.

But all of the arrays need the support of special Treasures from Heaven and Earth. And the Treasures

from Heaven and Earth for this Spiritual Energy Gathering Array can support it in working and

performing its function for ten entire days.

So in the following ten days, you will focus on your cultivation here. What level of the cultivation you

achieve by the time ten days are up is entirely up to you."

"Understood, Master Zenith!" Edgar nodded.

"Even if we can just cultivate at this amazing place for only ten days, it would be tantamount to

practicing outside for one hundred days, maybe even more!" Ricky gasped, reeling from the shock.

Zenith took out a large container of meat out of his Storage Ring and told them, "This is your food for

ten days. You should take every opportunity to cultivate in the next few days!"

With these words, Zenith disappeared. He had teleported away.

Exchanging tentative glances, Ricky and Edgar nodded and then sat down with their legs crossed, to

begin their cultivation.

They both knew they had to seize this once in a lifetime opportunity to cultivate. Not a second would be

wasted!

Since the pure spiritual energy here was twenty times denser than any other place outside, it gave

Ricky and Edgar different feelings and experiences during the cultivation. They felt that they reached

the higher levels at a rapid speed.

Ricky, with his Devouring Skill and Devourer Zone, reached the peak of the ninth grade of Skin

Refinement within only two days. Amazing!
