A spiteful gleam flashed through Nate's cruel eyes when he saw Ricky hold his saber to Gilbert's head. Nate leaped up to the gate without any hesitation.
"Put down my father's head!" Nate said maliciously, unsheathing the sword on his waist.
"Well, let's have a fight! If you defeat me, I will give you everything I have. That of course includes your father's head. If you lose to me, you will get nothing," Ricky said nonchalantly, moving his Iron Destroyer from Gilbert's head and then turning to Nate.
'The battle has finally come; I've been waiting for it a long time. My nightmares can finally dissipate, ' Ricky thought to himself seriously.
"My master, please end this battle quickly. Those messengers may have some special ways to send messages to the innate spiritual kings. Once they know you're here, they will be on the way soon," Alva reminded him.
...
Boom!
Their aura suddenly changed and was boosted to its limit.
Ricky realized that Nate had some power too. He cultivated to the first grade of Bone Reinforcement. More specifically, his power was at the peak of it.
'It seems that he has taken the Young Wraith Blood Pill. Otherwise, how else could he reach the peak of the first grade of Bone Reinforcement in such a short time?!' Ricky thought to himself coldly. He was even more impatient to finally kill Nate.
"Die!"
Both of them roared that out at the same time. They swiftly swung their weapons and struck each other fiercely. The clash of their weapons produced violent sparks. The gate of Stone City seemed to be destroyed.
They even began to fight with their bodies. Both of them utilized the deadliest and fiercest attacks in their entire arsenal.
Until then, they had kept attacking with a same goal. That goal was to kill the other person as soon as they could.
Nate was Ricky's obstacle in cultivation. As Ricky grew stronger quickly, he also became the only thing that could hurt Nate as well.
In the battle, the two of them fought for not only the sake of their family feuds; more importantly, they were fighting for themselves. In any case, only the winner could survive.
Nate reached the peak of the first grade of Bone Reinforcement in a short time and consolidated it completely because of the Young Wraith Blood Pill. Although Ricky was able to skip two levels on his own, it was a risk for him to fight against Nate now.
That was because the two levels he skipped were from completely different realms. He was challenging the power of Bone Reinforcement with only that of Blood Purification.
So, in the battle, Ricky went all out and employed the Sixth Degree of Nine-degree Body Refining Formula so as to grasp the advantage and win the battle.
Nate, being a warrior of Bone Reinforcement, had already cultivated it to his limit in the realm of Skin Refinement and Blood Purification. He had now begun to refine his bone. Therefore, he could absolutely crushed a Blood Purification warrior with ease. Even in the battle of physical strength, Nate didn't perform any worse because his realm was superior to Ricky's.
Furthermore, Nate clearly knew Ricky had a strong body, so he tried to fight with his sword and avoid bodily collisions as much as he could.
So, after several crashes in the first round, they were equally matched.
"I have heard that Ricky has the ability to skip levels and challenge the superior. I didn't think that it was true. He even skipped two levels though. This was really something! How did he do that?!" Many warriors exclaimed things like that when they saw the fierce battle above the gate.
"Actually, Ricky was unable to kill Gilbert with just his strength, don't you see that? So, how did this happen?"
"It must be because Ricky's master, the core disciple in the Snow Sect. Don't you remember how fierce she was? She directly took Ricky's father away in front of the whole Nan Clan, and they didn't even dare to say anything! She was such a strong warrior!"
"Maybe that's true..."
