At that point, Ricky and Soar both came to terms that their strength just wasn't enough against the Blood Devil King.
"Ricky, even if we join our forces, we are still no match for this Blood Devil King. What should we do now?" As Ricky retreated, Soar's voice echoed inside his head.
"What else is there to do but our best?" Ricky responded heavily.
"To be honest, I believe that a stronger power lies within the Justice Saber Soul and the Justice Saber. I always get this feeling when I'm just an inch away from grabbing them."
....
"I admit you guys are strong. You've mastered the control over the Justice Saber Soul to perfection. But I'm afraid I've suppressed the justice power from it in my cultivation when I've integrated all the devil blood essence from my ancestors. Now the only thing left is the devil power,"
the Blood Devil King said full of pride, looking down at them.
"Blood Devil King, should I remind you of a saying—the bigger you are, the harder you fall?" Ricky was annoyed at the arrogant tone filling the Blood Devil King's every word.
He was a proud man, with a very high self-esteem. Being looked down upon by others wasn't exactly his cup of tea.
"Yes, but I doubt any of you could shake me." He laughed, mocking at Ricky.
"Charge!" Leaving the nonsense aside, the Blood Devil King gathered his Blood Devil Mouth, going straight to Ricky.
With no hesitation and unafraid, Ricky wielded his saber to resist being devoured once again. He knew that even if he ended up failing, he would at least consume a large part of the Blood Devil Mouth's energy.
Yet the Blood Devil King would never give him the chance to do so.
Tearing the space with his claws, the Blood Devil King revealed himself right in front of the Blood Devil Mouth. Quickly, it slashed at Ricky and blocked his saber just before it merged with the mouth, swallowing the young warrior at once.
Ricky was dragged down by a bloody sea of mud, and the blood washed over him like a python coiling around his body.
Ricky kept moving the best he could to escape this situation, but unfortunately he wound up failing.
The brothers might've been just a bit weaker than the Blood Devil King. However, it didn't matter how bigger or smaller was the size of the gap between their strength. The most powerful one would always stand out. And because they weren't a match for the Blood Devil King, the brothers were doomed to failure.
Still, they weren't the kind of men who would just give in.
"Ricky, you have to merge with me. I'll slice the Blood Devil Mouth," Soar told him.
"Okay!" Ricky shouted.
He chose to put his faith in Soar at that moment. Even if there was a chance his plan wouldn't work out, it was okay if he was going to die by his brother's side.
Not to mention Pearl and Tina who were still in the Massacring Zone.
Boom! Shifting into the Heaven Melting Fire, Ricky burst out a torrent of flame as he managed to temporarily unravel from the muddy swamp.
Then, Soar rose, attracting the Heaven Melting Fire back to him.
"Soar, let me help you with the Heaven Illuminating Fire!" Ricky said.
Suddenly, the Heaven Illuminating Fire spread all over Soar's entire body. Rapidly, under the scorching flame, the mud from the bloody swamp began to retract.
"The Heaven Illuminating Fire! You two do possess a lot of good stuff on you!" The Blood Devil King gapped, amazed at the power revealed. Like the previous Black Blood Zombies, he had instantly recognized the Heaven Illuminating Fire.
The brothers burst out the Heaven Melting Fire, but this hardly surprised the Blood Devil King since Soar had already shifted into the Great Dragon before.
"Yet, it's a shame your power isn't enough. This flame you've burst out feels utterly useless against me," the Blood Devil King stated indifferently.
Then, the Blood Devil Mouth started to expand all of a sudden, entrapping Soar inside the void.
The blood swamp mud shifted into multiple blood arrows, which were quickly shot at Soar.
