Born Almighty Warrior novel Chapter 168

"You want to get the Heaven Melting Fire in me!" Ricky mused upon hearing the question from the man.

"Master, what are you talking about? I would never dare covet your Heaven Melting Fire!" the man replied, his voice quivering with fear.

"It doesn't matter. You'd never be able to get it even if you wanted to. I will tell you why I have the fire later. First, let me ask you this. What is the relationship between you and the Heaven Melting Fire? You are the Heaven Melting Pagoda, so why are you so afraid of the fire?" said Ricky.

Ricky moved the Heaven Melting Pagoda from his Soul Sea without taking down the Heaven Melting Fire which was still surrounding it.

Ricky knew he could beat this man, but he was still cautious. He didn't dare believe a single word Alva said.

From the way he treated Ricky before, this old guy must be crafty!

"I was cast from the Heaven Melting Fire. In a way, the Heaven Melting Fire is my parents, and even though it can bring me back to life, it can also destroy me," the man said solemnly.

"Well, how can the Heaven Melting Fire bring you back to life?" asked Ricky.

"As long as you let me stay in the fire, I can heal myself. One day, I can retrieve the power of the magic weapon!" the man said excitedly.

"Is that so? Then why should I keep you in my Heaven Melting Fire?" Ricky said, feeling a little bit dissatisfied, "In other words, what would I gain by helping you recover?"

"Well..." the man said, struggling to find the right answer to Ricky's question.

After everything he had been through, he was almost disabled. There wasn't really anything he could offer that would benefit Ricky. Besides, he understood that there was a price to pay in exchange for everything. And Ricky... well, he was too smart to be fooled by this man.

Then, the man came up with a compromise. "I'll take you as my owner. Right now, I might be a mere spiritual weapon of intermediate level, but I still have a lot to offer and I can certainly help you in your battles," he proposed seriously.

"Ha-ha. Why didn't you just say that earlier? Fine, we have a deal," Ricky laughed upon hearing Alva's proposition. Ricky didn't hide his intention though. What he wanted was to gain the Heaven Melting Pagoda.

Not just because of the Fire Dragon Egg, he wanted the Heaven Melting Pagoda itself.

It might have been seriously damaged and turned into a weapon in the intermediate stage now, but it was still an extremely powerful weapon. Who, in their right mind, could say no to it?

The man sighed, accepting his fate. He knew it had to happen. Eventually he was going to end up having an owner. But there was no one to blame. It was bad luck. He unfortunately ended up having to battle a man with Heaven Melting Fire inside him.

Suddenly, a flame ignited between the man's eyebrows.

"This is the core of my life. Take it and ingrain it into your blood essence so you can become my new owner. Then, everything I have and all that I am will be in your hands!" said the man.

"You sure you're done pulling tricks on me?" Ricky asked suspiciously as he took the flame in his hands.

"Master, my life is now in your hands. Why would I ever dare play tricks? Besides, there is no way I can refuse the temptation of the Heaven Melting Fire," said the man.

Upon hearing the man's words, Ricky's doubts evaporated. He directly integrated the flame into his own blood essence.

After the full integration, Ricky immediately felt that was now in full control of the Heaven Melting Pagoda. And everything about the pagoda was presented to him. The pagoda couldn't keep anything from him anymore.

Now he could get into the Heaven Melting Pagoda whenever he wanted. And the man, who was standing in front of him, was the spirit of the pagoda. Ricky could turn him to ashes with a snap of his fingers!

"Well, it seems like you've told me the truth. You can recover in the Heaven Melting Fire now!" Ricky said happily as he looked at the pagoda.
