After a while, Ricky stopped wondering about his father's whereabouts. He clearly understood that, no matter how hard he tried at that point in time, it wouldn't make any difference. His father had been missing for such a long time that it seemed hopeless. He had no informers to keep him updated either. The most important thing for him right then was still his cultivation strength. Once he was strong enough, he would be able to find and protect his father.
Thinking about that, he calmed down. He sat quietly and began to adjust his breathing. Now, he needed some more time to let himself recover. It was not a wise idea to keep breaking through and making great progress all the time without any rest. Ricky's nerves had been on edge when he was in the Fortune Land. After everything he had gone through there, he needed some time to take a good rest.
What was more important, was that it would be the best way for him to enhance his current abilities instead of rushing to make new progress.
Although he had recovered a lot after he consumed the Regenerating Grass, he still felt like his body was a bit weak. That was an after effect which he couldn't avoid. Ricky had made up his mind that, after he reached the demi-immortal level, he would be able to kill any person or creature at the demi-immortal level.
That way, he would be strong enough and would be qualified to challenge the innate spiritual king when he was at the peak of demi-immortal. Once he gathered his thoughts, Ricky took a deep breath before he closed his eyes.
Boom! Boom! Before he could rest for even one day, several powerful momentums appeared above the Misty South Palace. Among them, there was one which was especially powerful. It was much more powerful than Zenith.
'Finally, there you are, Shadow King, ' Ricky thought to himself the moment he felt it. It was quite familiar to him considering the fact that he once had fought with him. He stood up at once and exerted his internal strength. A pair of spiritual energy wings appeared on his back. Then, he flew out of the palace in a rush.
By the time Ricky got out, Zenith, Soar, Grace, Elder Evan, and the other elders had already gathered there.
Standing in front of them was Boris, an array deployer, and two middle-aged warriors in black. One could see from their breathing techniques that the two warriors were from the Endless Shadow.
At that point in time, all the people present fixed their eyes on the center of the space. They were staring at the middle-aged warrior in black in the center, who was floating in the air.
Needless to say, he was none other than the Shadow King.
The invisible, but strong aura emitting from the Shadow King filled the space up. Strands of murderous intent were floating through the air that surrounded him. Suddenly, all of them descended from the sky and dashed towards the Misty South Palace.
Luckily, they had Zenith. Zenith's strong aura formed a protective screen, so they did not fear the enemies that were running at them.
'It seems that Boris and his men are cooperating with the Endless Shadow, ' Ricky thought to himself when seeing those men. 'That's a good thing too! I can use the secret weapon left by Doris to deal with them at the same time.'
"Shadow King, the fight over the fortune was something that happened among the juniors. The number of days they have left alive are fixed. We are the seniors. As seniors, I don't think it's appropriate for us to poke our noses into this affair," Zenith said first. He, of course, knew why those people had come there. So, he just decided to directly say what he thought.
"Zenith, are you trying to teach me a lesson now?" the Shadow King replied in a distant tone upon hearing what Zenith had said. "Haven't you forgotten one thing? The strong always rule. In the Realm of Wildness, I am the strongest and I have the final say in everything that happens.
So, don't you dare try to teach me any lessons! Just give Ricky to me, and I will show mercy to you and leave you alive."
"Ha ha, if I did what you said, I would be ashamed to call myself some kind of leader here. How am I supposed to establish and maintain my credibility in the Realm of Wildness if I bend a knee so easily?" Zenith smiled coldly as he made his reply. The Shadow King was arrogant and threatening, but his claims did not work on Zenith.
"Well, now that you are asking for death, I'll just do you this favor and make it happen!" the Shadow King replied coldly in kind.
The next moment, the Ultimate Killing Domain pervaded the surrounding area. There were air waves which could be seen by everyone in the air. In the blink of an eye, the Shadow King had already appeared in front of Zenith. He stretched out his palm and it turned into a sharp sword that was rushing quickly towards Zenith's throat.
Faced with such overwhelming and dangerous attack, Zenith did not try to retreat. Instead, he pushed off the ground with his feet and jumped into the air. Immediately, the Ultimate Blizzard Domain was released by him. It was expanding quickly to cope with the Shadow King's Ultimate Killing Domain.
At the same time, he formed a freezing palm to resist the Shadow King's physical attack.
Bang! Bang! The next moment, the palm and the sword collided forcefully. The two strong momentums met with each other violently. Consequently, their Ultimate Domains also collided with each other.
Next, the air shimmered and rippled. The disturbance that was caused by the collisions spread outwards and filled up the surroundings. There were crackling sounds as they engulfed the space.
