Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 347 Fighting With Lucas

Boom!

A strong and powerful force swept the area, wiping away all of the contents from the twelfth staircase going down. The deafening sound crackled all throughout that everyone watched closely as the fight happened. The powerful fire and the power of defending earth resonated and filled the whole area in a snap.

The clash was extremely loud, that it could have been heard by an elderly with poor hearing ability. And this massive racket was made by no other than Ricky and Miles as their raging fists collided with superior power.

"Crrrrack!” The snapping of numerous bones could be heard from a distance as the force was too much for Miles. Then, unexpectedly, he was overthrown by a strong invisible force which sent him rolling down from where they stood to the ground.

Tyson saw it coming, unlike the others who watched the painful fate that Miles had in store for him. Even the Chief of the Sky Manor stood up from her seat as she was appalled by the electrifying spectacle. Not a single soul present in the fight ever anticipated the sudden reverse of strength. This was because only moments ago, Ricky was at the weaker end of the spectrum and now, in just a blink of an eye, he defeated Miles and sent him to his doom.

“Damn! He is still hiding his strength! He definitely could do more than that!" the Royal Sky Guards said inwardly. The Royal Sky Guards were left thinking for a possible reason on why Ricky kept on hiding his true powers. Then, there was a light bulb moment. It suddenly hit their minds about what Ricky could've had all along. This realization brought their hearts closer to him and they couldn't help but root for him even more. They wondered why Ricky was stronger even than a warrior at the peak of ninth grade of Bone Reinforcement, which was the top strength anyone could have. And for proof, they saw with their own naked eyes how Ricky pulverized a warrior at that same level, which could only mean one thing.

"Is it possible? Could he really have the strength of a demi-immortal?" Some Royal Sky Guards spoke to one another as they speculated about his real strength

"Damn it! This guy is really hiding his real strength!" Maxine said with loathing in her eyes.

"It's going to be alright, Maxine. Clam down." Lucas said. Lucas rubbed his hands at Maxine's back to show empathy towards what she was feeling.

Maxine's shoulders went down as a sign of relief after feeling her comrade's support. And to alleviate her own fear, she thought of how weak Ricky was when he encountered Lucas in a fight. "Hmm... wonder if Lucas can force Ricky to use his real strength,” wondered by the Chief of the Sky Manor as she witnessed the impeccable surge of power from Ricky.

"Ha! Miles really bit more than he could chew. He definitely sought trouble when he decided to fight Ricky," Tyson said coldheartedly as he looked at Miles who retreated awkwardly after stumbling down the staircase.

"Chief, it clearly looks like I have passed this obstacle. I believe that I am now ready to step on the twenty-fourth stair!” Ricky cupped his hands, let a little bow and said to the Chief of the Sky Manor. He ignored his opponent's eyes that only spoke a deep-seated hatred towards him after being defeated.

"Of course! Whether you succeed or not next, I will let you choose a suitable intermediate Black Level cultivation method from the Cultivation Method Hall of our Sky Manor," the Chief of the Sky Manor nodded and said with a light smile.

"Thank you very much, Chief!" Ricky politely smiled as he jumped his way to the twenty-fourth step of the staircase.

"Who's next? Give it all you've got," Ricky turned around to his audience and asked loudly as if he swallowed a megaphone. After his announcement, he then turned his head and locked eyes with his next target—Lucas.

Lucas received this threatening look and glanced back at Ricky with such contempt. In response to Ricky's invitation, he swiftly stepped on the twenty-fourth stair.

“Russell... so young and fresh and has such powerful strength. It's such a pity that he got in trouble with Maxine, and now, Lucas. Once he starts this fight with Lucas, he will regret it. Everyone knows he will not have a good end. What a shame! He could have been the best Royal Sky Guard if he were just humble." One of the Royal Sky Guards thought to himself as he watched how Lucas prepared for the fight. He and the other Royal Sky Guards also shared the same sentiments regarding Ricky's decisions.

"Okay, so how do you want me to do this? Do you want to go straight down, or prolong the agony with a painful suffering? You choose," Lucas asked directly as he looked sternly at Ricky.

"You wish! It's you who will go down,” Ricky responded with a smirk on his face.

"I knew you would say that. But I'm not so sure if you can keep both your arms and legs intact after this fight," Lucas said ferociously with a bigger grin on his face, after hearing the answer from Ricky. "I guess you injured your head when you were born, didn't you? You knew how I'd respond to that and you still asked me the question? You're talking nonsense, you freak!" Ricky taunted his opponent and burned him verbally.

"Oh, you didn't just go there. You will pay for this you bastard!" Lucas got to his breaking point and started to get really angry upon hearing Ricky's harsh words. He huffed out air from his nose as he looked at his opponent angrily. Suddenly, because of all the resentment in his body, he burst out a momentum of demi-immortal power. The power then condensed into an invisible aura and aimed straight at Ricky in such an incredible speed.

As soon as the momentum sped towards Ricky, Lucas also moved a few steps as his tactic. He was so quick that before anyone could feel the vibration caused by his attack, he was already standing in front of Ricky. He then gathered up his strongest energy and condensed it into a bloody fist which directly hit Ricky.

"Get the hell out of here! Bloody Fist, destroy him!"

"Lucas had really broken through into the realm of demi-immortal!" some Royal Sky Guards observed as they talked amongst themselves.

"Lucas is giving it his all! It looks like he doesn't want to give Russell the slightest chance of winning this. He even wants to render him disable," said a voice from the crowd.

"I think he'll be able to do that to Russell, though. Of course the Chief will not let that happen. But unfortunately Russell will fail in this fight!" another one responded.

As the people shared their thoughts about the fight, the strong evil spirits and incomplete innate power rushed toward him. He knew that his opponent wanted to stun him so that he could be attacked with the Bloody Fist without the slightest resistance.

However, things didn't unfold as Lucas expected, because demi-immortal strength was not that huge a threat to Ricky anymore.

Ricky shook his body and activated his inner strength. Intense and powerful flames started to spread all over his body. He then fused the power of the Heaven Melting Fire with his cultivated strength and the momentum suddenly raged all over him which overwhelmed the attack that Lucas used to crush him.

But, Ricky did not want to use the Eighth Degree of Nine-degree Body Refining Formula as his weapon, because if he did, it might give away his secret identity to the Royal Sky Guards. Fortunately, he found himself in the position wherein the power of the Heaven Melting Fire was enough for him to fight against Lucas.

"Whoa, what a strong flame power!" The Royal Sky Guards exclaimed as they felt the strong flame power resonate all over the area.

"Is this the power of the Beast Fire?" several Royal Sky Guards speculated.

'I don't think that this flame is as simple as the Beast Fire, though..." the Chief of the Sky Manor murmured inwardly. The Chief suddenly had the gut feeling that Ricky's Heaven Melting Fire and Kristen's Devil flame were of the same level.

"Ricky was really quite complicated. He seems to have a lot of secrets. Maybe it's good for Kristen to be his friend. And I'm afraid his pet, the little red snake on his shoulder has reached the realm of innate spiritual king.”

"Raging Fist!"

And with a loud and ferocious shout, Ricky activated the Chaotic Fire Skill to extract the raving power from the Heaven Melting Fire and filled his right fist with it. He then materialized a red fist figure and punched Lucas in the face.

"Small trick! Is that all you got?" Although the punch shook Lucas’ head, he was still afraid to admit that it really sent him some pain and as a result, Lucas taunted Ricky more and more.

Boom!

All of a sudden, Lucas wanted to attack once again and in a split second, their fists collided once again.

Then, the whole place violently shook down to the ground because of the collision. The bloody evil spirit's force and roaring flame instantly impacted together and rose strong and powerful waves in the air. Then, air waves strongly resonated from their collided fists.

Violent vibration sent the whole space buzzing with the powerful collision.

Ricky and Lucas were surprised as to how strong the effect of their crashed fists were. Both of them bore the violent impact of their own attacks. Their robes waved fiercely as the wind sped to their clothing because of the strong gust of power that reverberated the whole area. They had no choice but to hold on to their robes as they resisted the impact.

But the force was so strong that they weren't able to withstand the huge impact. Suddenly, both of them were pushed back from the stairs at the same time. Their shoes left deep scratches on the ground as they tried to stay where they stood

The crowd's jaws were left agape as they have seen the marvelous battle between Ricky and Lucas to be a hard tie.

Then, there was a deafening silence--all of the people who watched them were bewildered for they never have expected that this would even happen. They expected differently from the fight. All of them assumed that it was Lucas who would reign supreme. They envisioned that by the time the fight ended, Lucas would be the one on top with a calm and triumphant face while Ricky would be on the ground just like what Miles suffered.
