"Nothing is impossible. Did you really think that you could kill me only with your soft-iron sword? Did you really think that I wouldn't recognize your Shadowy Replication?" Ricky said in a calm tone, staring down at terrified Sham.
"How... how could it be? These two persons are proving more and more powerful than each other!" Many warriors around them were shocked at seeing their fight.
"He figured out that Sham used the Shadowy Replication to fake his death!" Hoffman said happily. But his expression also turned serious.
He was happy because Ricky didn't die. Though he wasn't close to Ricky, he would like to see Ricky, rather than Sham, survive. He also looked grim, because Ricky was more formidable than Sham.
Hoffman also wanted to win the ultimate dragon meridian, and Ricky was standing in his way.
"This guy always makes us worry about him!" Kristen and Tyson finally relaxed when they saw that Ricky was safe and sound.
...
"It's impossible! Your body refinement is incredibly strong! How could it be? I used the Shadowy Replication very carefully, even more discreetly than using the Shadowy Fatal Attack. You couldn't have known it," Sham shouted with anger, his eyes wide and crazed.
"You can't understand my body refining. To be honest, nothing can hurt my body except a real spiritual weapon. Besides, I have seen this Shadowy Replication many times before," Ricky replied.
"If I couldn't detect it, I wouldn't deserve being called a talent.
My Vitality Plundering Palm is used to plunder vitality. When I collided with you just now, I didn't sense any vibe of vitality. Therefore, I could tell that it was only a shadow of you."
'What an impressive man! His speculation is right.' Every warrior nearby felt shivers run up their spine. They were growing more and more afraid of Ricky.
Sham was filled up with despair after hearing what Ricky had said.
But as a killer who had grown up in a murderous and bloody environment, he was familiar with despair. He chose to exert all his power to attack Ricky once more.
However, it was too late. Ricky gave him no chances to fight. He had already sent his Vitality Plundering Palm to slap Sham. Attacked by the Vitality Plundering Palm, Sham lost his power to resist.
Next, the Iron Destroyer slashed his neck, causing him to bleed profusely.
Next, his dragon meridian slipped out, which Ricky immediately absorbed. Now Ricky's dragon meridian was ninety-seven feet long!
After seeing this, every warrior's mouth fell open.
Hoffman was the only one who dare look at Ricky directly. He was feeling increasingly eager to fight, and really wanted to challenge Ricky. But he felt some hesitation.
Ricky knew what Hoffman was thinking. But he ignored him. He also wanted to fight against Hoffman, but it was not a good time to fight now. Otherwise, one of them would be doomed to die in the battle.
Ricky was confident of himself. He thought that he would be the winner, but he didn't want Hoffman to die, either. They had no history or previous animosity and Ricky also wanted to make a friend with him.
Moreover, Hoffman was a member of the Imperial Palace of Wildness. Ricky didn't want to become their enemy. He had already been the enemy of the Endless Shadow, which had hounded him for a long time. He wasn't afraid of them, but he worried about his friends and wanted to protect them.
'Hoffman, I hope that you can give up competing for the ultimate dragon meridian this time, ' Ricky thought to himself. Otherwise, he would have no choice but to kill Hoffman today in order to win. He didn't have a strong force that could stand by him. He was different from other talents. This was the only chance during these one hundred years and he didn't want to miss it.
