Boom!
In the next moment, Queenie's momentum burst out unintentionally. It seemed that her cultivation level was not the only aspect that was enhanced. Her state of mind had also unknowingly improved.
"I didn't expect that this test can improve your state of mind and lead you towards some epiphany," Ricky remarked admiringly.
All creatures were envious of this kind of invisible epiphany, as the state of mind could be considerably enhanced.
"Honestly, I just got lucky!" Queenie replied.
To a large extent, Queenie's attitudes towards Ricky had changed a lot.
After all, it was thanks to his treatment that she could achieve all these. Without him, she would not grow as much as she had.
And Queenie was not inherently evil. She did have a conscience, so she treated anyone who got her recognition sincerely. What was more, her state of mind had improved, so her actions were well-thought-out as well.
Of course, she still acted like a bratty and moody woman to those she was not familiar with or did not recognize.
'It seems that it is already impossible to make Ricky yield to me, ' Queenie thought to herself.
Actually, people like her paid more attention to friendship. If she did not recognize a creature, she tended to treat that person without any sincerity; but once someone obtained her recognition, that person could count on her sincere attitude. And she would never change until she died.
Of course, to these two, they were merely acquaintances who just acknowledged each other. It needed more time for them to be closer friends.
"Perseverance and courage cannot be boiled down to luck or fluke!" Ricky answered her with a laugh.
"Then, you can restore your power first!"
After leaving the plain filled with vines, Ricky and Queenie came to a circular valley.
Several peaks were around them, but no one knew how high they were. And on each peak, a platform stood tall and imposing. When Ricky and Queenie stepped out of the exit, they landed on one of these platforms.
At that time, the first thing that caught their attention was the center of the valley.
There was a round light of power like an altar in the middle, wherein stood a seed about the size of a fist. It contained a strong aura of vitality and energy.
The shadow of a giant tree emerged from these two kinds of auras.
"The grand humanoid evil tree is over there!" Queenie exclaimed with excitement.
"This seed is the grand humanoid evil tree?!" Ricky was astounded. After all, the image of the grand humanoid evil tree in his mind was a gigantic tree, as vast as the entire world, just like the Void Tree in his body.
"Yes. As long as this seed is integrated into one's body, it will instantly become the grand humanoid evil tree. You can consider this seed as the original form of the grand humanoid evil tree," explained Queenie briefly.
"Oh, I see now!" Ricky responded, nodding enthusiastically.
However, the two of them refused to move, as it would be reckless to do so at that moment. Both of them could clearly feel the suppressive force coming from the seed, which deterred them from approaching.
"Hmn... I wonder how many people can pass this test and come to this core area," Queenie remarked lowly, her voice almost nothing but a breathy whisper.
"Ha-ha, is this the core area of the ancestral land of human devils?" Soon after, a voice resounded around them, and two mysterious figures appeared.
One was a young man dressed in a white robe, and he had a long saber strapped to his back. Beside him stood a young man dressed in black, his arms folded over his chest in a menacing posture. He had a deep scowl on his face and looked around with contempt at seemingly everything that moved.
"Rodger Dugu! Gage Lin!" Queenie cried out in surprise. The beautiful smile on her face was wiped away, and her expression grew somber as she beheld the two figures. "As I expected, they passed the test!"
She immediately described the two men to Ricky through her internal power. "Rodger Dugu is another genius of our race. He is as powerful as Sawyer. Like Kurt, his devilish blood power belongs to the Blood Devil blood power, and his human blood belongs to the Heavenly Saber blood power.
He also possesses the Heavenly Saber Mutant and has achieved unparalleled attainments in saber skills."
"No wonder he is full of the same kind of momentum as the king of saber. I have felt it even before I got a look at him. It is a toxic combination of bloodlust and killing," Ricky replied.
"The other one is Gage Lin, who is a genius of the race of Heavenly Unicorn Cattle, the emperor beast. He also has the blood power of a legendary beast, the legendary unicorn," Queenie explained further.
'Won't any devils come here?' Ricky wondered in his mind.
Right after he thought of this, a burst of laughter echoed in the air and broke the silence. Two young men in blood-red robes landed in their midst.
"Ha-ha! I didn't expect that the humble human devils have already developed so well that three of them could come here!"
"The devils!" Ricky and the other five people shouted in alarm, and their gazes turned cold and sullen as they looked at their hated foes.
"Even though we are devils, there is no need for you to look at us with so much hatred," the thinner of the two young men replied with a faint smile. "Kill them!"
Rodger Dugu bellowed in a voice full of murderous contempt. At the same time, a saber came out from his back, filled with strong saber intent.
Without any hesitation, he rushed towards the two devils.
Boom!
However, at that moment, the four peaks in the surroundings suddenly shifted. A strong force burst out from these peaks, which were instantly covered with the suppressive force.
Bang! Rodger Dugu was thrown back by the suppressive force like a limp doll.
Then, in the blink of an eye, the peaks transformed into massive competition platforms.
These four competition platforms spun rapidly in the air, as two of them fused afterward.
In a flash, the four platforms disappeared, and only the two new platforms were left.
There was no doubt that each two of these four groups would have to fight against each other.
Rodger Dugu, Gage Lin, Molly Ximen, and the tall man were on one competition platform, while Ricky, Queenie, and the two devils were on the other.
