Chapter 1356 Adrian's Soul
Chapter 1356 Adrian's Soul
Ricky had no mercy to spare for the members of the devil race, and there was no way he would give them another chance. Thus, he readily confronted Ronan and used the skill of Resurrection.
Although Ronan was defeated, he was still the Purple Wild Devil tribe's beloved young master, and their tribe belonged to the eight most powerful tribes of the devil race. If Ricky didn't kill him, he would always sleep with one eye open.
And what happened next proved that Ricky had been right to be cautious.
"Do you think you can kill me? Hah! You are dreaming!"
Just as Ricky was about to attack him, Ronan suddenly cackled as if he had tricked his opponent.
Ricky eyed Ronan with a wary glance, and he immediately became more vigilant. His body stiffened with tension, like a coiled wire that could spring to action at any moment.
For some reason, his fight-or-flight instinct had activated, and every cell in his body pushed him to back off.
Ricky withdrew at once, listening to his instincts with no hesitation.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As soon as he jumped away, another unparalleled power burst out from Ronan's body. This exceptional power surpassed even Ronan's power from earlier when he was still in the Extreme Killing State.
Thankfully, Ricky didn't let his guard down. Otherwise, he would have received the full brunt of the attack. That would leave him with serious injuries if it didn't kill him outright.
He landed gently on the ground a few feet away, and from there, he identified the power Ronan had used.
It was the pure power of universe.
At this moment, half of Ronan's flesh and blood transformed into the flesh and blood of the creatures on the continent, and this was where the powerful force had originated from.
Specifically, he was wearing Adrian's flesh and blood.
"No way! How can you use the power of universe?"
thundered Ricky as killing intent emanated from him in waves.
It was a shame and a great disrespect to the creatures from the continent that the devil race used Adrian's flesh and blood. After all, the man had killed countless devils while he was still alive. He had championed against these very devils who were now using his flesh and blood!
'I need to retrieve Master Adrian's flesh and blood. He won't be truly at peace when the damnable devils are using him for their atrocious deeds!'
Ricky decided steadfastly in his mind.
"Aww, what's wrong? Are you angry that I can use the continent's power? And this isn't just anyone's power. This is your respected senior's, Adrian's flesh and blood!"
announced Ronan as he sneered at Ricky.
"I don't need to be angry since you will die soon anyway,"
came Ricky's reply. "I didn't think arrogant devils like you could use the continent's power, and you even have the audacity to use Master Adrian's power. What a bunch of shameless worms!
Do you admit now that the continent's power is stronger than your devilish power? That's the only reason you are using it. You know you can't defeat our strength, so you want to use it too."
Ronan's eyes burned with hatred.
"I don't care what you think. The winner will always have the last laugh and that will be me! I don't care what I have to do, but I will defeat you,"
he answered dismissively, glaring at Ricky viciously. "Now, I'm going to show you something more surprising. Are you ready for it?"
"Something more surprising, huh? Okay, I'm waiting. I hope this surprise is better than the last,"
scoffed Ricky as he eyed the other man with a frosty glare.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Adrian's flesh and blood, which encompassed Ronan's body, continuously released the power of universe. The energy gathered and slowly took shape, looking more and more humanoid in each passing second. Finally, the figure finished evolving. It appeared identical to Adrian's statue that Ricky saw at the center of the altar.
Strangely, Ricky felt like it was alive. If he didn't see where it came from, he would have thought this was the real deal.
And it seemed like he was right. Once the figure completed its form, it talked to Ricky in an utterly domineering tone. "You brat, why are you just standing there? I am Adrian's soul. Kneel!"
At the same time, Ricky felt an overbearing pressure that came from the ancient warrior, and it ruthlessly pushed him down to his knees.
His mind screamed at him to surrender at once and beg for his opponent's mercy. A real state of surrender called to his soul as if the real Adrian was really in front of him.
"Ha-ha! Look, weaklings from the continent, Adrian's soul has become a puppet of our devil race. You idolize him, right? Why don't you surrender to me now?"
Ronan mockingly urged Ricky.
As he spoke, he stood directly over the head of Adrian's soul.
"Damn you!"
Ricky cursed heatedly. "How dare you defile Master Adrian's soul like this? You don't deserve to live!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The following moment, Ricky's body burst out the chromatic energy and fused it into his Devouring Mutant. He also combined the two with the chaotic power, which put his Devouring Mutant above the seven mutants.
After that, Ricky entered a state of killing.
Gradually, the shura power he possessed began to be activated.
Under this power, he immediately overpowered the force of submission emitted by Adrian's soul. It gradually dissipated with no effect on him. He then turned an expectant gaze to Ronan, his eyes glowing with the color of blood.
Boom! Seeing this, Ronan trembled like a lamb about to be slaughtered.
This was the incredible ability of the shura power. It could terrify even a fearsome creature like a Purple Wild Devil.
"How is this possible? You even have the shura power!"
As a young master, Ronan, of course, was familiar with the shura power. He couldn't believe that Ricky possessed it!
After all, it could only be cultivated by the Shura tribe and owners who had the ultimate killing mutants. But why could Ricky use it?
The devouring power was even inferior to the shura power.
Unfortunately, Ronan didn't know that Ricky also possessed the Devourer Zone. The Devourer Zone's devouring power could hold all kinds of negative power, and Ricky had used it to obtain the shura power and the fiendish power.
"Kill!" Now that Ricky was under the shura power's control, his mind contained nothing but killing. He let out a roar like a beast.
He also brought out his Shura Justice Saber. And under the blood-red light, the shura power enveloped the Shura Justice Saber.
The image of a bloody sky and earth emerged behind Ricky, although it was notably incomplete.
"Stop resisting! Surrender!"
When Ronan felt the mounting presence of the shura power, he knew he shouldn't waste any more time. He instantly merged with Adrian's soul and condensed the power of universe into an Eight- diagram shape, intending to suppress Ricky.
The power of universe was indeed exceptional, as it could merge with any kind of power.
Under the influence of this force, Ricky felt like Ronan was pulling the seven mutants' power out of his body. The mutants felt like they want to assimilate with Ronan's power.
Because of this, Ricky decided to use the Ancestral Intent Formula. Immediately, the chromatic energy melded straight into his bloodstream, which helped him resist Ronan's invisible pull.
"If Master Adrian's real soul were here, I would have submitted. After all, I have nothing but respect for him,"
Ricky muttered with an icy glare. "However, this isn't the real deal. This is just a mask for you despicable devils!
I, Ricky, have no choice but to destroy it!"
The bloody heaven and earth behind him ceased growing after he said his piece. Endless shura power swept from all directions, merged with his strength, and gathered on the saber in his hand.
When the Eight Diagrams formed by the power of universe tried to suppress him, Ricky instantly lashed out with his saber.
"Destruction of Heaven and Earth!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After that, the three forces—the shura power, the purple evil spirit, and pure white power of universe— entwined with each other like exceedingly powerful ribbons. From NôvelDrama.Org.
The violent airwaves surged and billowed all around them, drowning the entire space as the two sides fought.
It lasted for such a long time that nobody could tell how much time had passed.
But, finally, the debris and dirt subsided. At this time, Jasper and Mike also finished recuperating.
