The legendary warrior

Chapter 1087 Showdown

Meanwhile, Ricky was now an upper demi-spiritual emperor at peak state. His strength was also at the limit of this level. Being new to this new level, he still had to explore the limits of his fighting abilities. However, there was one thing that he was sure of—no one on the Complete Emperor Island was his match anymore.

Beaming with confidence, he was set to step on an extraordinary path in the martial arts world.

After a few days, Soar, Autelan, and the others had almost absorbed all the ruling power contained in the massive Emperor Light.

At that moment, Ricky could sense that Soar's and Autelan's auras reached their peaks. Without a doubt, he knew that they had become strong enough to endure and break through the Thunderstroke Doom right now.

Meanwhile, Pearl also had turned to be an extremely strong demi-spiritual emperor at peak state. As a result, she would only have to cultivate for a few more months before she became strong enough to incur the Thunderstroke Doom.

However, whether she could pass the Thunderstroke Doom successfully was unknown to everyone.

On the other hand, Amanda and Amelia had become upper demi-spiritual emperors at peak state as well. Therefore, with their strong strengths they had, the two sisters could surely cultivate more smoothly until they could break through the Thunderstroke Doom.

"Wow, the Emperor Light is really powerful without a doubt. Cultivating here for a month is equal to one year's routine cultivation. Moreover, we could never gain the rules and experiences contained in the Emperor Light if we cultivated only by ourselves," Soar said enthusiastically as he felt the rush of power in his body.

In fact, he could even break through completely and become a spiritual emperor as long as he consolidated his strength for a few more months.

"I see that you have also become a strong demi-spiritual emperor, Ricky. Now, I don't need to fear anyone starting today. Let's go and investigate who those men in black truly are!"

"You said that, right. Now, let's see what they're hiding under those black covers. To be honest, I'm really eager to know if they are really that terrible," Autelan commented as he agreed with what Soar had to say.

"Hey, take it easy. I still think that they are the ones who will initiate to meet with us. After all, I think they know where we are," Ricky reminded.

After exchanging their experiences with their breakthroughs, they walked out of the Massacring Zone and started to prepare to leave the ruling region.

But before they left, they made sure to collect many ruling spirits and ruling essence. Even though these things would not actually be of use to them, they knew they would be useful for their friends who were not able to enter the ruling region with them.

In fact, they would give these ruling spirits and ruling essence to their friends as gifts.

Just as they were about to leave the ruling region, the men in black appeared again from the void, just like what Ricky had anticipated.

Only this time, instead of ten men, five more men joined them.

"Pearl, grab Amanda and Amelia and head to the Massacring Zone. We'll handle this. Go!!" Ricky ordered the girls telepathically as he immediately sent them into his Massacring Zone.

He knew that putting the girls in his zone would protect them. This time, what he could sense was a fierce battle of life and death coming right at them.

"Hello, everyone! I thought you were bluffing when you said that we would meet sooner than we thought. So now, it's time to tell us who you are and what you really want with us. Don't you think so?" Ricky asked in a low and threatening voice as he looked at the fifteen men in black.

"Ha-ha, we know that you would be expecting us, Mister Kenney!" said one of the men in black in a joyous voice.

"I can't believe that you can be so calm even after expecting us to come. I assume that you must have already refined the Emperor Light. In fact, I could tell that you all have made such wonderful progress."

"Well, it seems that you are pretty informed of what we have done!" Ricky murmured under his breath.

"Of course. How could you guys get the Emperor Light in the first place if it weren't for our help? Instead of antagonizing us, you should even be thanking and expressing gratitude to us," argued the man in black.

"What? Thank you? For what? And even if we wanted to thank you, we should, of course, know whom to express our gratitude to. I mean, you are like ghosts at night, with only your eyes exposed. Plus, you don't look like gentlemen at all, so why should we trust you?" Ricky said cynically.

"Ha-ha! You talk so articulately. No wonder the three elders of the Sky-breaking Dome didn't even have the honor to fight with your real body," the man in black said condescendingly. "But I also want you to know that you don't deserve to know who we are.

You only need to know that your current strength comes from the Emperor Light that we gave you. Now, it's time for payback. Return the Emperor Light to us."

"Are you insane? We've already refined the Emperor Light. If you want to take it back, then I suggest you keep dreaming!" Soar mocked.

"Ha-ha! Now, you're getting it! What we want is exactly the refined Emperor Light!" The man in black suddenly burst into laughter upon hearing Soar's words.

But Ricky, Soar, and Autelan weren't amused by this; instead, their faces grew darker.

"The refined Emperor Light? What do you mean by that?" Ricky asked.

"Now that we are going to take everything back, I don't think we need to hide things from you any longer. Otherwise, we will be the only ones who would know about our greatness," the man in black said with a smug smile.

"During the first day of entering the large Complete Emperor Island, we discovered four ruling regions, and found huge Emperor Light in three of them."

"No way. You're kidding. How could it be possible? No matter how many people you have, it would be impossible for you to search the whole island and discover four such hidden places in a single day!" Soar commented coldly.

"It may be difficult for you, but for us, finding ruling regions is as easy as pie. It was just a simple task. But there's no need for you to know how we discovered them," the man in black ridiculed.

"It is common knowledge that the Emperor Light can help a demi-spiritual emperor become a spiritual emperor, but what they don't know is that devouring a genius who has refined the Emperor Light would be more directly helpful. In this way, they can gather the good fortune of the genius and weaken the destructive power of the Thunderstroke Doom."

"What?!" Ricky, Soar, Autelan, and the three girls in the Massacring Zone were all greatly shocked to hear that piece of information.

"What do you think, Dragon Intent Grass? Are they telling the truth?" Ricky asked immediately.

"Yes, I am afraid they're telling the truth. I didn't remember any of that until the man in black pointed it out," the Dragon Intent Grass said in a deep voice. "To become a spiritual emperor, the most terrible thing is going through such doom. In fact, too many demi-spiritual emperors have already died because of this during the process.

After all, the heavenly law doesn't allow too many powerful creatures to exist in the world at the same time. As a result, the heavenly doom is used to control the situation.

The Emperor Light gathers the essence of countless spiritual emperors, and helps the creation of spiritual emperors. If it is refined by a genius with great luck, just like Soar or Autelan, the genius' chances of breaking through the heavenly doom will greatly increase.

If another genius devours the guy who has refined the Emperor Light, the former will be able to gather the great luck in the latter's body and use it. Moreover, when that person tries to break through the heavenly doom to become a spiritual emperor, he can use the great luck to resist a huge part of the attack from the heavenly doom."

"So that explains it!" Ricky said.

"But that kind of behavior is very cruel, indeed. The geniuses who have refined the Emperor Light have to be devoured alive, because only in this way can their great luck be gathered to its peak," the Dragon Intent Grass explained. "The fact that the master of these men in black came up with such an idea is enough to prove how cruel he must be."

"It doesn't matter whether he is extremely evil or not. The fact still remains that we have already refined the Emperor Light. If they really want to take it back, then they will have to eat us alive. So this is their plan. But whether they can achieve their goal or not, I seriously doubt! I won't let this happen!" Ricky said coldly.

At that moment, everything was clear to him now that he finally understood what these men in black wanted from them.

Undoubtedly, the reason why the men in black had lured them here to fight for the Emperor Light was because they wanted the strongest warriors to get and refine the Emperor Light. After that, they could capture these strong warriors and send them to their master to eat them. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Now that you're up to speed with what is happening, all of you will go to hell safely. It's your honor to be the nutrient for our master in his path to become a spiritual emperor."

As soon as the voice faded away, the fifteen men slowly walked towards Ricky, Soar, and Autelan, surrounding them.
