Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 1338 The Third Sheol City

The Evil Mandragora had transformed into something completely different. Ricky remembered heras a woman enveloped by a strong evil spirit, and the clothes on her body were worn and ragged.Now, she painted a completely different picture in her black leather skirt, showcasing her shapelyfigure. Her ink-black pupils were wide and expressive. These fine features would undoubtedly attractanyone who so much as glanced at her.

She was exquisite. A simple flash of her smile or the flutter of her eyelashes was enough to tantalizeanyone, and her plump red lips could make men fall head over heels for her.

Tina and Queenie were the most refined and comely women that Ricky had ever seen, and theyboth had potent blood power to boot.

However, the Evil Mandragora was more attractive than them right now. Even though Ricky was asensible man, he could not help but feel enthralled by her beauty.

In a heartbeat, Ricky used the space power, which allowed him to suppress his desire for the EvilMandragora.

He had been so close to losing his senses! The woman in question merely let out a chuckle, seeinghim struggle to regain his control.

"It looks like you've been busy, Evil Mandragora. You look totally different! Hell, if I didn't use mypower to regain composure, I might have gotten you in the sack." Ricky winked at her and dissolvedinto chuckles.

Hearing this, the Evil Mandragora sidled closer to him with a seductive smile. "Do you want to? Iwon't say no," she remarked, her voice sounding sultry and rich.

A snort escaped from Ricky's lips as he shrugged. "You win this time.”

The Evil Mandragora that Ricky was seeing now was her authentic form. Back then, she looked a bitragged because she had lost too much power, and her life essence had been sealed for years.

But this time, she had fully recuperated. After her seclusion in the Divine Manor, most of herstrength had come back.

Since the Evil Mandragora used abundant divine energy in her cultivation, she could now withdrawthe evil spirit she emitted at will. In this way, she was able to hide that she was from the devil race,and no one would notice except for those who were much stronger than her.

"Evil Mandragora, what level are you at now?" asked Ricky as he eyed the woman curiously.

"I'm a one-star upper spiritual emperor now!" she replied. "The divine energy inside the DivineManor didn't just help me get my strength back. It also enabled me to become an upper spiritualemperor.”

"Cool! You're now an upper spiritual emperor. Who knew the divine energy was so amazing?" Rickyremarked with envy.

If it were an option for him, he would have bathed in the divine energy as well. For the EvilMandragora, she didn't need to comprehend anything. Enormous amounts of energy were all sheneeded to advance onto higher levels, and her abilities could improve in the same way.

However, Ricky was not as lucky. If he tried to absorb the divine energy for a breakthrough, hewould end up dead instead.

"I envy creatures like you. You don't have to bother comprehending anything.” A small pout madeits way on Ricky's face, but a slight tug of a smile on his lips betrayed his amusement.

"There are pros and cons to being one of us, you know? So you don't need to envy us. Although wecan reach high levels without comprehension, we have a limit that won't allow us to become themost powerful. On the contrary, you have to comprehend things on your own, but you don't haveany of the same stipulations we have. You can become one of the strongest warriors once youcomprehend the supreme enlightenment.

Besides, Hannah is luckier than me. Once she has mastered her father's inheritance, she will be ableto reach the Sage Level,"

said the Evil Mandragora.

"Hannah's father is a holy being, and she had to be reborn because she was seriously injured. If not,she would have been at the Divine Level," said Ricky. After that, the two of them went quiet.

Ricky transformed into a youthful boy once again using the young realm of the TransformingOmnipotent Skill. He then went to inquire about where the Misty South Palace's selection wouldtake place.

This time, he asked the Evil Mandragora to accompany him, while he pretended to be her youngerbrother. After all, a child who had previously shown enormous power would draw a lot of attentionRicky also asked the Evil Mandragora to conceal her face with a veil, as her beauty wouldundoubtedly bring them unnecessary trouble.

Despite these measures, some flirtatious warriors still tried to hit on the Evil Mandragora. However,she scared them away with her incredible power.

The pair went on to collect information about the location of the Misty South Palace's selection,and, luckily, the answers came to them easily.

Ricky and the Evil Mandragora heard that the selection of the Misty South Palace, which was opento the warriors from the central and outer regions, would be held in the Third Sheol City.

The Sheol Cities were passages that connected the continent and the devil race.

Many cities had such a capacity, but the powerful creatures from the devil race could only usesixteen such cities to enter the continent. Security was tight in these places. Sixteen powerful forcesof the continent worked together to keep these sixteen cities well-protected.

Of course, not all the said forces were the most powerful on the continent. For example, the Dragontribe and the Phoenix tribe were influential forces, but they didn't send any of their men to defendthe cities.

When the Dragon tribe was at its strongest, some of the members were sent to guard one city.

But after their tribe declined, they withdrew their men and stopped guarding it.

The Misty South Palace guarded the Third Sheol City. Perhaps that was the reason why they wantedto conduct their selection there.

And although those Sheol Cities were sealed by the power of heaven and earth, creatures at theEmperor Level could still enter them. In fact, even Demi-saints could set foot inside.

It was a sign that the creatures from the continent and the devil race could soon interact with eachother.

"I didn’t expect them to hold their selection process in the Third Sheol City," said the EvilMandragora. "It looks like you have to fight devils before you can pass.”

"Well, that's not surprising. The Misty South Palace's primary task is dealing with the devil race. Itmakes sense that they want to see their candidates eliminate devils first before they accept them astheir disciple,” agreed Ricky, nodding. "But that's all right. I'm going to deal with the devil raceeventually, so this is like an introduction. The Misty South Palace just helped me start.”

"Do you know that the elite warriors and top disciples of all kinds of powerful forces are in the ThirdSheol City? We can only be considered strong if we have already fought against the devil raceourselves.

Although the Third Sheol City is protected by the Misty South Palace, other forces’ members arealso there. That's bad news for you if you want to join the selection in the Third Sheol City, as youwill have to use your actual name to sign up for the competition. Your enemies will undoubtedlyhunt you down in secret,” the Evil Mandragora explained, her eyebrows arched critically.

"Will they dare to stir trouble in the Misty South Palace's territory? Aren't they afraid of offendingthe Misty South Palace?" Ricky asked with a frown

"Of course, they can't afford to mess with the Misty South Palace. But they don't need to send saintsafter you. They will probably send upper spiritual emperors to take you out,” the Dragon IntentGrass chimed in at this moment. "In that case, the Misty South Palace will not interfere. Since you,yourself, are a spiritual emperor, they are within rights to send spiritual emperors to deal with youtoo."

"Spiritual emperors can't pose a threat to me. If they try to take my life, I will pay them back tenfold.Besides, Evil Mandragora, you are on my side. I don't need to worry about anything as long as theydon't send demi-saints or saints. I can just hide in the zone, and they won't be able to hurt me,"Ricky reassured his companion.

Afterward, he and the Evil Mandragora went straight for the Third Sheol City. It was a long journey,for their destination was located outside the outer region.

Unlike other competitors, Ricky didn't have a saint to lead the way. The Evil Mandragora could movefast for her level, but she wasn't as fast as a saint. It would take her more than half a month to getthere. And she couldn't possibly keep going with no rest.

Another thing they had to remember was to keep away from saints. After all, they were strongenough to see through his disguise.

Fortunately, Ricky and the Evil Mandragora didn't encounter any trouble along the way.

The pair arrived twenty days later at the Third Sheol City, a city in the southern desolation area.
