Without a doubt, the young man with ash-grey hair was no other than Ricky. In a span of two years, he had just returned to his peak in the martial arts.
During these past two years, endless pain tortured every part of his body as he cultivated to return to his former glory.
Not long ago, he tried to reconstruct his body, and he was successful in doing so. In fact, his body gained more power than before due to the golden blood power and the chromatic energy that he used to refine it.
At that time, twenty percent of Ricky's golden blood power had already awakened. In the past two years, he had not only returned to the demi-spiritual emperor realm but also reached its peak.
Moreover, with the help of the golden blood power and the chromatic energy, his foundation of the martial arts was completely restored.
Fortunately, it seemed that Ricky was blessed this time around. This was all due to the chromatic energy and the golden blood power that he was able to be completely reborn.
Soon after, his body changed its shape, along with his visage. Despite the changes that kept happening in his body, his eyes and his evil smile remained the same.
However, after undergoing a major overhaul, there seemed to be one unexpected thing that happened. As it turned out, his grey hair did not revert back to its original color.
But he did not care at all. Instead of being saddened by this, he chose to be glad about it. "Well, this kind of suits me. This will be the mark of my rebirth," Ricky said.
In addition, his grey hair would also symbolize and remind him how he fought the Sky-breaking Dome and the Nether Manor.
Meanwhile, as Ricky set foot on the Complete Emperor Island, a chaotic battlefield met his eyes.
Cracks on the ground could be seen, which looked like real dragons that puffed out air waves from afar.
But what caught his eyes more were the mountains that had been demolished.
There, he laid eyes on the smoke-laden place that was filled with traces of ashes from the previous fights. Even after years since the last battle, Ricky was able to see through the scenes of the intense battles that took place in the area as if he were there.
Moreover, the entire area felt hot to the touch, an evidence that intense battles had taken place in the area.
"No wonder that this was once the battlefield for spiritual emperors. Numerous traces of war, bloodshed, gunpowder, and smoke are very visible in this area. The fighting spirit in my heart inspires me more when I see them," Ricky exclaimed as he admired the Complete Emperor Island.
"The way I see it, no one can cause this much destruction. This must be the work of spiritual emperors.
And I'm sure to become a spiritual emperor here!"
"This Complete Emperor Island emerged at the time that you were reborn. Perhaps it is a sign from God that he wants you to be a spiritual emperor!" the Dragon Intent Grass also suggested.
"I can sense the dense ruling power here. That's strange. When I was outside, I felt that it was full of the incomplete ruling power. Maybe that is what makes this island special," the Evil Mandragora uttered.
"I also heard that as long as you obtain the Emperor Light, you can easily become a spiritual emperor!"
"You got that right!" Ricky replied.
However, only Tina and Ricky were aware that even if Ricky had the Emperor Light, he would still not be a spiritual emperor because he had lost the Heavenly Meridian.
'It doesn't matter whether I make it or not. Regardless, I should bravely march forward. Now, I have the golden blood power and the chromatic energy. Plus, I can even be reborn! With this, I believe that I can still become a spiritual emperor even though I have lost the Heavenly Meridian, ' Ricky said to himself with resolution.
"I never doubted you for a second, Ricky. I firmly believe in you from the very start!" Tina sent him a message through her internal power.
"Wow, thank you for the kind words, Tina! Then let us not waste any more time and head for my next target—the Emperor Light."
Soon after, Ricky kept walking and moving forward as he looked for his target's whereabouts.
