"Volcano Fruit, the fire, the power! I hope you do not disappoint me!" Locking his eyes on the green fruit with crimson shadows, Ricky exclaimed with excitement!
Then, he went straight to the Devouring Skill and started to channel the power embedded in the Volcano Fruit.
Thanks to the devouring cultivation method he learned, he didn't have to take many of the Treasures from Heaven Earth orally anymore. He could just go directly to the Devouring Skill and refine them without any trouble.
As the refinement began, he felt that the flame and power inside his body strengthening and improving simultaneously.
The improvement on his flames was less drastic due to the Chaotic Fire Zone. But he knew he was getting stronger just by how his entire body felt.
For an ordinary warrior at the eighth grade of Blood Purification, his power was approximately five thousand kilograms.
As Ricky went on with the refinement of the fruit, he felt his power increasing by at least fifty kilograms every passing second.
'It seems that the fire from the Volcano Fruit isn't of much use to me. But maybe its fire can help me fortify my power at the eighth grade of Blood Purification through the Devouring Skill!' Ricky thought to himself.
It took Ricky a whole day to complete the refinement of the Volcano Fruit. As a result, he had reinforced his current level of Blood Purification significantly.
After a hard day's work, he felt that his power grew by a thousand and five hundred kilograms! And thanks to his stronger power, Ricky's strength would be no weaker than that of a warrior at the third grade of Bone Reinforcement!
'You did not disappoint me, Volcano Fruit!' Ricky shouted eagerly in his heart as he initiated his internal strength to feel his new gained power rushing through his body.
Now that he had reinforced his level at the eighth grade of Blood Purification, the power he obtained was no different to the power of a warrior of Bone Reinforcement!
"My master, your next goal must be to take down an opponent who is three levels higher than you in Bone Reinforcement. You are going to be a genius no one should take easily!" Alva suggested. "Defeating someone at a higher level is a difficult task.
If you could take down someone who is three levels higher than you in Bone Reinforcement, it could serve as a solid foundation for your breakthrough to the innate spirit! By that time, challenging someone who is three levels higher than you in the innate spirit stage should no longer be a problem!"
"Take down someone who is three levels higher than me? Now that would be amazing! I've never thought about that before!" Ricky responded.
"My master, be bold, please! You have every quality to achieve that. You own a peculiar fire and two sacred fires. Add to that, the powerful mysterious cultivation method and the incredible spiritual meridian! You are surely strong enough to take such challenge! There is no doubt in my mind that you will succeed in it!" Alva expounded further to his master.
He was dwelling inside Ricky's body for several days. Now he had known some of Ricky's secret weapons. As an ancient artificial, his knowledge had always been wider than others.
"Is that so? Ha-ha. I'm looking forward to it!" Ricky said as he laughed hysterically. He began to feel confident about taking on the challenge Alva just proposed to him.
A great genius who defeated someone three levels higher than him! Ricky decided that he should be the one!
He tidied himself and walked to Monkey Nine's place. Standing at the gate, he discovered that Monkey Nine was still in seclusion.
"Although Monkey Nine is a warrior of Bone Reinforcement, it seems that he still needs more time to refine the two Beast Fires. I guess I'll have to wait," Ricky mumbled as he could see from outside that Monkey Nine was still silent.
...
It took Monkey Nine another whole day to complete his refinement on the Beast Fires. Finally, he opened his eyes from the seclusion with a thrilled expression on his face. He could tell that his strength had improved significantly.
'I did it! I did it!' he screamed excitedly in his heart.
He then proceeded to walk out of his place and saw Ricky hunkering down on the ground outside. He approached Ricky and bowed to him. "Thank you so much!" he thanked Ricky with sincerity.
Judging merely by the way Monkey Nine looked at Ricky, it was clear that he respected him very much.
"I'm glad you're done with it. Next, we go to the Stone City!" Ricky said coldly as he stood up and raised his head to look towards where Stone City was located. There was an overwhelming murderous intent in Ricky's eyes that Monkey Nine who was a professional assassin shuddered in fear.
"So, you have already decided to do something to the Nan Clan?" asked Monkey Nine.
