Born Almighty Warrior novel Chapter 567

Like an intricate dance, the ninety-nine green swords started to spin around inside the Star Moon Sword Array. Luna watched as the swords devoured the brimming energy in the air like a beast starved.

With every second that passed, they absorbed more and more force from the surroundings. There was no end to their hunger. The green swords grew sharper and bigger, as if to make room for the power collected.

Standing inside the mouth of the Star Moon Sword Array, Ricky felt a strong wave of murderous intent. He felt his skin prick with boundless icy rays.

'I regret agreeing with Luna's plan. This Star Moon Sword Array makes me feel threatened, ' Ricky thought to himself. His fingers clenched as he realized both his desperate situation and his resolve.

The die was cast. It was his own rotten luck that he managed to roll snake eyes. 'My immediate priority is to break through the Star Moon Sword Array, even if I have to fight my way out.'

With that thought in mind, Ricky activated the four zones. They swept forward and then upwards, blazing a path across the ninety-nine green swords that now covered the sky. However, Ricky only had a second to glimpse at the clouds around them. The swords continued their dance. They moved to avoid his attack before slotting back in place. In other words, they had him surrounded to the point where he couldn't even find the center of the array. All he knew was that the Star Moon Sword Array was still active for the ninety-nine green swords to work.

To break through the Star Moon Sword Array, Ricky needed to crush the ninety-nine green swords first.

"Russell, you agreed to let me deploy my Star Moon Sword Array. And now, I want to repay you for that," Luna said in a soft tone. She looked down on him, hovering as she did above him and the Star Moon Sword Array like the God of War.

Her eyes narrowed, as sharp and cold as the blades she controlled. "Now, I'll activate the most powerful sword array attack. If you can survive it, you will win."

"Ha-ha! Luna, thank you in advance. But I have the ability to break through this sword array," Ricky said. Apparently, he was very confident of himself.

"You seem quite sure of yourself. Let's both save some breath and start our contest!" Luna growled. The rumbling in her throat echoed through the array as they glowed in time with her anger.

Like a foreboding heartbeat, Luna's body was enveloped by the same light. She controlled the enlightening power of the stars and moon. It surged up and spread across the air quickly in reaction to her call. The action was as easy as holding out one's own hand.

In more ways than one, it was an extension of Luna at this point. She had cultivated the enlightening force as religiously as she trained her body. Deploying the Star Moon Sword Array had the same sensation as releasing a long-held breath.

The enlightening force grew palpable as it spread across her body and the air surrounding her. Hundreds of visible rays of green light wrapped around her body in the shape of makeshift armor.

"Attack!" With a delicate shout, Luna thrust her hand upwards to the sky. The dark rays of green light followed the path of her extended arm and went further, reaching out to where she couldn't. They met the light of the Star Moon Sword Array and the rays mingled in perfect harmony.

Then, just as quickly, the wind whined as the green swords whizzed past Ricky's ear.

It would have been mesmerizing if it wasn't also a truly terrifying scene. The swords moved in a wild but precise pattern around him, needles under the hand of an expert weaver. His head jerked left and right as Ricky tried to follow the movement of each blade. Within seconds, the threads wove into their masterwork: the shape of the Eight Trigrams.

Suddenly, the electric sound of lightning piercing through the sky reached his ears. Instead of static, however, a gigantic sword pierced the center of the Eight Trigrams. It shot out of the light that contained it and began moving rapidly towards Ricky.

"What a powerful array force! Although the Luna's enlightening power is weaker than that of Garrett, the force of the sword array that she has launched is stronger than Garrett's," Ricky mumbled to himself as he watched the giant sword's murderous trail.

"How powerful and strong it is! It must be more powerful than Garrett's!" Just as Ricky did, the warriors around him could also sense the sheer power emanating from the sword. They watched incredulously, unable to help the exclamations that spilled from their lips.

"Let's see if Russell has the ability to withstand this attack."

Hearing his men's words, Garrett's face grew darker as he too recognized that Luna's sword array was stronger than any attack of his. Fearing the bile that bubbled up in his chest, he bit the inside of his cheek to compose himself.

"Russell, seeing is believing. Show me that you can withstand this attack," Garrett said to himself coldly.

All eyes turned to watch Ricky. Each pair waited eagerly to witness either his victory or his inevitable demise.

Ricky sneered at their doubts and ill will. Half of him felt like entertainment on a show, but the other half heard the challenge in their voices. His eyes blazed, reflecting the intensity of his determination and fighting spirit.

He was tempted to launch his Ultimate Golden Body and crush the Star Moon Sword Array, right then and there. But it was too early to expose his true identity and his strength.
