Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 102 The Blizzard Cliff

"Screech!" The Demonic Ape died, its head neatly cut off. The whole square stopped in its tracks,mouths open in shock.

Was it even possible?

The Demonic Ape who was at the peak of the sixth grade of Blood Purification could easily stand upto a warrior at the seventh grade of Blood Purification. When Ricky killed Phil, his power at the thirdgrade of Blood Purification had already stupefied most of them.

But again, the powerful Demonic Ape had been so easily slain by Ricky just now!

What were the bounds of his power? Did Ricky cultivate so frequently that it was akin to eating anddrinking for him? Was Ricky's spiritual meridian really incomplete like he claimed?

All these previously impossible speculations crossed their minds.

The disciples were not alone in their shock. Zenith, Boris and nine Elders were all deeply stunned bythis scene. In all their years, they had never encountered someone like Ricky.

For what seemed like an eternity, the whole square froze in total silence.

The tremendous silence was not broken until Ricky's voice rang out.

"Dominant Top Elder, have I now proven that I am much stronger than Phil ever was?" Ricky saidseriously as he stood tall, the Iron Destroyer in his hand. He looked at Boris directly.

"Huh!" That was all Boris could manage to say.

Boris, as an innate spirit, didn't want to break his word in front of many disciples of the Snow Sect.So he announced that Ricky was now free to go.

In this way, Ricky finally got himself out of trouble to live for another day.

Now, the warriors of Casting Faction and Refinement Faction, as well as the three Elders who hadvoted against Ricky all looked sullen. They were furious with the turn of events. They had Boris, theinnate spirit, with them! Yet Ricky still managed to live to see another day.

"Boy, you are so strong! Why don't you tell Elder Abbott in advance? We worry about you in vain!"rang Zenith's voice in Ricky's head

Ricky looked down, trying not to start laughing at the chief's admonishing message.

"The gap between Ricky and I has now grown even wider," Edgar said, gazing admiringly at Ricky."You have a particular taste indeed.” the charming woman said, staring at Amelia. "However, theprophecy has not yet been fulfilled. There is still a long way to go.”

"Since Dominant Top Elder has no objection, I declare that Ricky's life is spared. He has cleared hisname. But we regret what happened, and the Snow Sect will give Phil's brother some compensationfor the death of his kin," Zenith explained, looking out over the disciples.

"Chief, you say that one should be punished severely when he makes a great mistake, even thoughhe has been pardoned from the penalty of death. So what will this severe punishment be?" Borisasked.

If Zenith gave Ricky too easy of a punishment, he would be considered biased. He would have hisway with Ricky by then.

All the people, including Ricky, now stared up at Zenith in anticipation.

"I propose that the punishment will be sending Ricky to the Blizzard Cliff for two months! Do youapprove of this, Boris?" Zenith proclaimed, squinting.

"The Blizzard Cliff! The punishment is really going to be two months in the Blizzard Cliffl? What'sgoing on? I thought that Chief Zenith was on Ricky's side! But the punishment he's proposing is justas good as killing Ricky!" a loud din began to fill the square, the disciples becoming even moreconfused at Zenith's idea.

Even Elder Evan and the other Elders were also incredulous and began to ask Zenith, "Chief, areyou..."

But a glance from Zenith made them fall silent.

In the square, the relief on Grace's face turned into the worry again.

Once more, the members of the Casting and Refinement Faction became excited, grinning amongthemselves. Never did they imagine that Zenith would send Ricky to the Blizzard Cliff.

"This so-called Blizzard Cliff must be quite dangerous,” Ricky deduced. "Chief must have a certainintention behind his decision.”

"Ha-ha, it will be even better to exile Ricky in the Blizzard Cliff. Chief Zenith is really a just man,”Boris laughed heartily.

"If the Dominant Top Elder is still worried about the punishment's veracity, you may come and sendoff Ricky at the Blizzard Cliff with me,” Zenith said pointedly.

"Well, since you put it that way, I believe it. So, I don't see the need to come with you!" Boris replied."Well, there's no need for me to linger here. So, Chief, Elders, I bid you farewell!" Boris left, stillsmiling.

Zenith announced the end of the trial and immediately led Ricky away, because they had to travel tothe Blizzard Cliff soon

"What is Chief Zenith thinking? Why would he send Ricky to the Blizzard Cliff!? Ricky is still notstrong enough and will die for nothing out there!" Elder Evan and other Elders sighed, watchingZenith and Ricky leave

"Who knows? Maybe Chief has his own plans. Let's just hope for the best for Ricky. At this point intime, that is all we can do," Elder Abbott added.

Directly after the square had emptied of people, Grace took Heather to go to to the ZenithMountain.

Grace wanted to demand Zenith for a reasonable explanation for what she perceived to be anunjust decision. After all, Blizzard Cliff was very harsh and dangerous!

Ricky and Zenith came into a side room of the courtyard in the Zenith Mountain.

"Thank you for saving me today, Chief Zenith!" Ricky said profusely, bowing deeply.

"Don’t be so quick to thank me. I must tell you about the Blizzard Cliff first,” Zenith replied with asmile.

"Please, Chief!"

"The Blizzard Cliff has many serpents and beasts who are the most dangerous kind among the SnowSect mountains. For the warriors at the peak of Blood Purification who go there, they only narrowlyescape with their lives,” Zenith chuckled.

Upon hearing this, Ricky couldn't help but shiver as he imagined the dangerous conditions of theBlizzard Cliff.

Ricky knew finally why Boris became so happy while Elder Evan and other Elders had lookedimmediately worried when Zenith had proposed his idea for Ricky's punishment.

"Chief, do you have another intention behind this decision?" Ricky asked carefully.

"Ha-ha, so smart you are, boy!" Zenith laughed, his eyes twinkling.

"There are two reasons.” Zenith continued, "The first is to make appease Boris and his disciples.Once you go to the Blizzard Cliff, they expect you to die there. It's supposed to let their guardsdown. Besides, after saving your life, an easy punishment would have caused many disciples to thinkthat I support you blindly regardless of the rules.

As for the second reason, you have a chance in the Blizzard Cliff..."

"Zenith, come out!" The angry voice interrupted the sect chief.

It was, of course, Grace, standing angrily in the courtyard with Heather at her side.

Ricky was surprised. He wondered what had provoked Grace to call Zenith in this manner. Zenithwas the sect chief after all! Wasn't she afraid of offending him?

"Ha-ha, Grace is here to cause me trouble for sending you to the Blizzard Cliff!" Zenith laughedamicably.

This only made Ricky feel even more confused. What was going on?
