Whoosh!
However, before the two of them could launch another attack, there were blares that were accompanied by a diffusing golden light. The three other golden pillars were all surrounded by golden lights, all of which contained power equal to the limit level of a middle spiritual king.
Everything that was taking place at that moment could be reflected through the light curtain.
All of a sudden, the attack encountered by Ricky and Pearl quadrupled in number.
The golden lights seemed to have doubled in speed, and Ricky and Pearl didn't have enough time to dodge or defend themselves.
"The second level of Ultimate Golden Body!" Without any hesitation, Ricky used the second level of Ultimate Golden Body to shield them inside.
Cling! Clang! The golden lights ended up landing a direct hit on the second level of Ultimate Golden Body and bounced back in the Golden Light Array.
The golden arrow had left deep marks on the second level of Ultimate Golden Body. The impact it left was a clear demonstration of how powerful it was.
"How formidable the array is!" Pearl said while still being able to remain calm. The recent attack was, indeed, packed with power, but it would take more than that to make her shiver or twitch her eyebrow.
Also, it seemed as though she had her own way of dodging the golden light even without the protection of Ricky's Ultimate Golden Body.
Ricky second level of Ultimate Golden Body had reached the major achievement after he had successfully refined the Massacring Sand. Massacring Sand was, after all, deemed to be a true treasure.
"You really have a magnificent golden body." Pearl also noticed the second level of Ultimate Golden Body. Her face shifted into a more serious expression.
If the golden arrow alone could already speak for the extreme power possessed by the Land of Legacy, and yet the only serious impact it could leave on the second level of Ultimate Golden Body was a few scratches and marks, then there was no way that Pearl could destroy it.
As such, she would only be at a disadvantageous position in the life-and-death battle she was going to have with Ricky.
"Well, if it wasn't magnificent, we'd probably be dead by now," Ricky smiled. "Let's figure out a way to break the Golden Light Array. My golden body won't last that long, though."
"This is an array, so the center of the array must be the four golden pillars. We just have to try our best to break them. Since you've shown your true power, I have no reason to hide mine. I'll deal with the rest," Pearl suggested.
There were two reasons why Pearl decided to reveal her power and volunteer to help out. First, she wanted to tell Ricky that she was as strong as he was after he exhibited a fraction of the golden body's power.
Second, she wanted to make an effort for the sake of their temporary union. She couldn't ask nor fully depend on Ricky to solve any danger that came to them. Otherwise, their partnership wouldn't last as long as she'd anticipated it to be. She didn't want the union to fall apart right now.
"Oh? Since that's how you plan to carry on, then I am really looking forward to it." Ricky couldn't hide the surprise he felt at the bold and courageous proposal that rang with Pearl's words. On the other hand, he already had an inkling as to what Pearl was up to.
"Ricky, Pearl is your life long enemy, but she knows what is more important when the circumstance calls for it. If it were someone else, they would have crossed you under such circumstances," Tina pointed out.
"Tina, this is exactly why I decided to work with her," Ricky replied through his internal power. He acknowledged the reality behind Tina's reminder. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have a kept time bomb right beside me."
Boom! Just when Ricky and Tina were preoccupied with exchanging words, the energy within Pearl suddenly surged and she activated her Feminine Mutant. Shortly after Pearl's transformation, the Dark Enlightenment that she released made Ricky's golden body want to fight against it.
This was a normal occurrence. Feminine power was the dark power's extreme form, while massacring power was the light power's extreme form. When the two powers appeared at the same time, they would of course want to fight each other.
