Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 401 Competition Of Casting Skill

"Well, I guess that's pretty fair to me. After all, you are indeed a powerful warrior from tens ofmillions of years ago!" Seth spoke beautifully crafted words to glorify the Ruin Demi-spiritualEmperor again. As flattering as Seth's words could be, there was still a portion of it that was rather abit fishy, that he could still not be telling what he really thought of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor."Even though I am the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor, I am still very proud of my casting skill. Thus forthe next competition, I want to see how well versed you are with your casting skills. It is the skill Iwant to see and I don't give a pig's ass about your personal fighting power at all,” the murkyshadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor said obnoxiously.

Ricky, upon hearing these words, had his interest piqued while Seth, on the other hand, feltstupefied.

But Seth's distraction was replaced by a good thought--he suddenly came to a realization that he,indeed, could do a lot better than Ricky in this task. After all, Ricky had not yet reached the demi-immortal level and could by no means be close to being a master of the Demi-spirit Level at all.This also meant that Ricky, even though he was a casting master at the advanced stage of theMortal Level, was no match for Seth's casting skill.

"Well, in that case, please set a task for us to complete. We are ready," Seth daringly asked the RuinDemi-spiritual Emperor. Whenever it came to martial arts skills or casting, Seth was known to reachand take advantage of the chance to be a living legend. He was known to be a warrior of confidenceand would not let any chance slip his way.

"All right, then!” The indistinct shadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor nodded after he sawboth Ricky and Seth had been well-prepared and eager to start the test.

The emperor then waved the sleeve of his robe. And in an instant, two large pieces of ocher copperappeared respectively and fell in front of Ricky and Seth.

"As you can see, there are two pieces of innate copper essence in front of you. Note that both ofthem are of the exact same size. For this task, you will need to melt the copper essence and getpure water of the copper essence. The warrior who manages to perform the task in shorter time andthe copper water with higher quality wins this round,” the vague and powerful shadow spoke."Once you are ready, you may begin!"

Flames burned fiercely as the two warriors focused on the task ahead of them. Right after thecunning shadow finished his last words of instruction, Ricky and Seth did not hesitate to activatetheir spiritual energy to their full potential. They both used their spiritual energies to cover each oftheir copper essences. After covering, they immediately activated their own manual skills to fusewith their energies and start melting the metal.

.. And in half an hour after they had started the test, the copper essence started to melt a little."Wow. This innate copper essence must be a very special casting material, huh. What's taking thisthing so long to melt?" Ricky exclaimed inwardly. I bet it will take up so much time to melt this in aconventional way. Hmm. I think the shadow of this Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor wants to reveal thepeak of our strength!"

"Boom! Bang!" Seth, who was also having a hard time melting the innate copper essence, seemed tohave the same sentiments as Ricky. He then thought of a way on how to make the melting faster.He reached out his hand and took out a Rage Fire Pill from his pocket and swallowed it. Thensuddenly, large and powerful flames surged and appeared all over his body.

"Fuck! He has more than one Rage Fire Pilll Oh man, I'm officially screwed!" Ricky exclaimed out ofpanic as he saw Seth took the pill.

But then again, the presence of the shadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor might have savedhis life. After all, if it weren't for the shadow's presence, he might have already been killed by Seth'smagical and humongous flames.

Ricky had never thought that Seth had another Rage Fire Pill in his pocket all along. If Ricky hadknown about this, he wouldn't have even dared come into this place after Seth.

"Take a close note that winning by taking pills brings no honor to the victor. But, it is a fact that pillsare also part of the strength of the warriors. Thus, I declare that it is not, in any way, illegal to takepills in this competition!" the shadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor said directly to Ricky uponhearing his rough words. He thought that Ricky felt cheated that Seth took the pill to improve hisflames for this competition.

"No worries; I totally understand!" Ricky replied to him.

"Ricky, you good-for-nothing coward. If you choose to quit now, I may leave you as a completecorpse after I get the heritage, and I will let those people off outside. Otherwise ..." Seth saidferociously to Ricky after he saw the indistinct shadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor had noobjection about him taking the pill. He thought with confidence that he was sure to win thecompetition.

"You know what? Just set your heart at rest. I will surely tear you to shreds after I get the valuableheritage,” Ricky said nonchalantly in response to Seth's words.

"Very well, then! Ha-ha! You'd better mark your words!" Seth screamed out a hysterical laugh uponhearing Ricky's response. This did not intimidate him whatsoever, and instead, it helped him focuseven more on completing the challenge. He then ignored Ricky and set his mind on the task aheadof him.

From the power of the Rage Fire Pill, it could clearly be seen that it was working pretty well. Nowthe innate copper essence was melting at such a fast speed.

'l can't just let an enhancement pill defeat my raging soul. Now, let me show you the power of myFusion Fire!" Ricky thought to himself as determination ran through his veins upon seeing how wellSeth had melted the innate copper essence. But on the other hand, in Ricky's eyes, murdering himand stabbing him a million times wouldn't even be equal to a revenge.

There was no reason for this sudden annoyance aside from the term "ugly woman" that Seth usedto insult Grace before.

Meanwhile, three kinds of fire surged up from Ricky's body-- the Devouring Fire, the HeavenMelting Fire, and the Heaven Illuminating Fire respectively.

Among the three fires that suddenly surged up Ricky's body, two of them had a very good effectwhen fused together. The Heaven Melting Fire had the property of indestructibility while theHeaven Illuminating Fire allowed him to have a raging power. When these two were combined, theyformed the Fusion Fire, which was regarded as the best melting fire that could ever exist from theheaven and earth.

Meanwhile, the Devouring Fire aided purification. This helped Ricky harvest some pure water fromthe innate copper essence that he had just melted. This only proved that casting masters at theDemi-spirit Level were no match for Ricky's casting skills.

In addition to that, Ricky had his time cultivating with Doris before and this helped his casting levelreach the Demi-spirit Level. But there was a slight problem to that--he could not yet cast weaponsat the Demi-Spiritual Level only because he was not yet a demi-immortal warrior.

Suddenly, crackling sounds of burning flames echoed throughout the area where Ricky and Sethbattled their wits and skills as casting masters.

Being burned by the Fusion Fire, the innate copper essence beside Ricky also started melting at anapparent speed, which was about the same as the speed of Seth who had taken the Rage Fire Pill.If only Seth had not taken the Rage Fire Pill and under the same circumstance, Ricky had proceededwith his three-fire technique, the crowned winner would be very obvious.

This outstanding display of power from Ricky caught the attention of the shadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor. The shadow then looked at Ricky and nodded as a sign of satisfaction andapproval. Then, the shadow inwardly said, It seems that I had the right feeling after all. This youngman's casting talent is the work of a genius!

What is more important is that the three kinds of fire he broke out struck a strong chord with thefire inside my Small World. It only means that those three kinds of fire he owns are all sacred fires!"The Ruin Demi-Spiritual Emperor thought to himself as he realized how powerful Ricky's castingskills were.

'I can't believe that a single warrior merely at the Bone Reinforcement level owns three kinds ofsacred fire. He is really amazing! What a warrior of exemplary skill! With this show of cleverness, hecould even be dubbed as a powerful genius of the ancient history. It seems that waiting for him isclearly worth the wait.’

At the sight of this remarkable use of fire energies, the shadow had finally accepted that an amazingwarrior such as Ricky really did exist on earth.

After an hour of tedious melting and using all kinds of techniques, Ricky and Seth opened their eyesand woke up from the trance of the state of melting.

"How is this even possible?” Seth questioned himself after he saw that Ricky had also finishedmelting the innate copper essence as the same time as him. This, however, only brought him fearand insecurity.

Seth felt remorse that he had clearly underestimated Ricky's casting skill in this test. And now, hefelt several horses running on his chest as he was really nervous about how he did during thecasting test, now that he knew that Ricky was not as weak as he thought.

"Nothing is impossible. Now that you had the Rage Fire Pill, I developed clever and unique ways ofmelting. Do you think you're so special? That only you could be great in this world? If you did, thenyou are dreaming. Let me remind you that you are not the only one!” Ricky looked at Seth with athreatening smile

"Humph! I wouldn't be overconfident if I were you. Haven't you forgotten that the water's purity ismost important?" Seth said sternly as he rolled his eyes.

Then, he averted his gaze at the shadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor and asked impatiently,"Please tell us who won this round, sir.”

"You, lad, win the competition this time. You are the chosen one to receive my heritage!" theshadow of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor said to Ricky as he looked at him with utmostsatisfaction and pride.

This announcement left Seth feeling ignored and out of the picture as the shadow celebratedRicky's victory.
