Born Almighty Warrior novel Chapter 1426

"Lad, there's no doubt that you are a casting genius! It only took you half a year to transform twenty percent of runes into holy runes,"

said the Casting Ladder with awe and a hint of disbelief.

"At this rate, you can become a casting master of Sage Level in less than three years on your own."

"Three years?"

Ricky repeated, pursing his lips into a frown.

Three years sounded too long.

"Well, yeah. If that's too much for you, don't forget that top talents usually need dozens of years or more. I'm afraid your expectations are too high,"

responded the Casting Ladder when it noticed the displeasure on Ricky's face.

"What about Kamari? How long did it take him to become a casting master of Sage Level?" Ricky asked.

"You can't compare yourself to him. The disciples of the Helian Clan have been cultivating on me since childhood," the Casting Ladder reminded him gently. "And besides, Kamari has also cultivated on the 999th floor.

I suspect that if he relied on his own comprehension, it would take him around five years to become a casting master of Sage Level. With that in mind, I can say that you are the strongest casting genius I have ever seen."

"I'm honored to hear that, sir. However, if I didn't get the incredible opportunities that I have had, I would not have improved as much,"

Ricky humbly replied. "I am curious, though. From the way you talked, I can tell that you still have much confidence in Kamari."

"The Short Human tribe is the best at casting, after all,"

admitted the Casting Ladder, sounding amused that Ricky noticed such a thing. "I trust their talents to prevail. Otherwise, even if I wanted your casting manual so much, I wouldn't have dared to offer such conditions."

"Ha-ha! So you are that confident in the Short Human tribe! It's touching, but I won't surrender so easily,"

responded Ricky. He didn't feel bad that the Casting Ladder didn't seem to believe in him, for he believed in himself already. "In terms of casting, I believe I'm superior to the Short Human tribe."

"Ha-ha, let's wait and see. Now, you're going to turn all the runes on your body into holy runes."

The Casting Ladder wasn't offended by what Ricky said. Instead, it only chuckled and redirected their focus once again.

In the next moment, the two opposite powers were released at the same time in the vortex space.

One was the negative environment power of the Casting Ladder, while the other was the positive environment power. These two powers immediately fused and encompassed Ricky.

He struggled underneath the pressure mounted by the negative environment power, and when he resisted, the positive environment power poured into his body. In an instant, his perception of casting exponentially increased.

At the rate he was going, Ricky figured that a year of cultivation in this place had the same result as cultivating for one hundred years outside.

'No wonder Kamari became a casting master of Sage Level before the age of fifty, '

Ricky thought, nodding to himself.

'I heard that even a mediocre person can become a casting master of Sage Level after cultivating on the Casting Ladder for a hundred years. Seeing this, that rumor seems to be accurate.'

Then, Ricky threw all his hesitation into the air and immediately entered the state of cultivation.

"You can forget everything in this place and simply concentrate on your cultivation," the Casting Ladder intoned wisely.

In the next breath, Ricky felt another force emerge, and this new force stirred movement within his Soul Sea. His mysterious axe pulsed excitedly.

"Is this the original energy?" Ricky muttered, his brows creased in confusion.

"Oh? I didn't think you would recognize it," remarked the Casting Ladder with surprise.

"Anyway, you're right. It is indeed the original energy of casting, which is essential if you want to turn all of your runes into holy runes overnight. If you don't have it, even a perfect cultivation environment cannot help you."

"This is awesome. Thank you so much, sir!" Ricky responded gratefully.

At this point, he knew that no matter what the purpose of the Casting Ladder was, it was sincere in helping him cultivate. It wouldn't have offered the original energy of casting otherwise.

"If I had to guess, I'd say the Casting Ladder must have two reasons to help you. First, it probably wants to use you to humble the Helian Clan, who has become too arrogant through the years that they've been unmatched," the Dragon Intent Grass revealed through telepathy.

"The second and primary reason must be because it values your talent and wants to befriend you. It hopes to sow good seeds, just in case the Helian Clan or members of the Short Human tribe offend you in the future. That way, it could step in and help them.

Aside from those two reasons, I can't think of any other reason why it offered the original energy of casting to help you. And you should know that if it helps you with the original energy of casting, it won't cause any negative after-effects on you.
