Meanwhile, as Ricky slowly walked out of the almost dissipated thunder, a calm voice echoed, "A scum
like him doesn't deserve your move."
Hearing this stunned everyone around to their silence.
"What? Ricky is still alive? How is that possible?" Soon after, various voices of doubt and disbelief
flooded the atmosphere.
Warriors exchanged their views and opinions as they wondered whether the deadly five-colored
Thunderstroke Doom was true.
At that moment, people could not help but stare at Ricky cynically.
On the other hand, the people and disciples from the Spirit Sect reacted differently, for they all became
excited.
At the same time, Ricky released Autelan and the others from the Divine Manor and instructed them
not to do anything until he killed Oswald.
Meanwhile, Autelan heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that Ricky was fine. But somehow, he thought
that something was not right and was not adding up. Although Ricky was still a demi-spiritual emperor,
the invisible pressure he released was like the power of a real spiritual emperor.
"Two Dominant Top Elders, please help me. Please do everything in your power to stop anyone from
getting involved in my fight against Oswald," Ricky pleaded to Mason and Easton using his internal
power.
"Ricky, we know that you have survived the destructive force of the five-colored Thunderstroke Doom,
but don't be too arrogant. Can't you see that Oswald has already become a spiritual emperor?" the two
Dominant Top Elders said seriously upon hearing Ricky's request.
Seeing that Ricky had just made a narrow escape from death, they didn't want to see this genius from
the Spirit Sect risk his life again.
"Don't worry. I won't do that if I am not confidence enough. Plus, if I don't personally kill Oswald, then I
won't have the chance to become an incredible demi-spiritual emperor," Ricky said through his internal
power.
"What? An incredible demi-spiritual emperor?" At that moment, both Mason and Easton felt doubtful
when they heard Ricky's words.
That was because an incredible demi-spiritual emperor was both familiar and strange to them.
Meanwhile, Ricky and Oswald had been locked in a standstill.
"I didn't expect you would survive just by resisting the first and second rounds of the Thunderstroke
Doom. There has to be more, maybe someone who is doing you a favor. Am I right?" Ricky mumbled
using his internal power as the killing intent was very visible in his eyes.
Ricky was determined to kill Oswald, whether for his own interest or for the public's interest. The owner
of the Blue Water Mutant was deemed by the public as a devil and he was not allowed to exist in this
continent. As a result, Ricky killing Oswald would have the public's support. Apart from that, Ricky
would still want to kill Oswald for personal reasons. Otherwise, he would not complete his road of
becoming an incredible demi-spiritual emperor.
As a matter of fact, he owed this incredible path to where it had all started—Oswald's Thunderstroke
Doom.
"What? How did you know it? Do you mean it is the same with you? But that's impossible!"
Oswald responded mindfully upon hearing Ricky's inquiry.
At this moment, he suddenly understood why Ricky was able to survive the five-colored Thunderstroke
Doom.
Ricky realized that the other grace that the mysterious voice mentioned was no other than Oswald.
At that moment, after he pieced the puzzle pieces together, more doubts and questions started to arise
in Ricky's heart.
Of course, he knew that there must be a strong master supporting Oswald from behind.
But he didn't need to pay attention and think about that for now.
What he needed to plan right now was how to kill Oswald.
Soon after, Ricky walked slowly and casually towards Oswald.
At that moment, his aura surged, bursting out six mutants with a deafening crash. After he condensed
the first mutant, it immediately flew towards Oswald's head without warning.
"Ha-ha, you want to kill me? Get a hold of yourself!" Oswald laughed scornfully when he saw Ricky's
fist bombarding him directly.
He thought perhaps Ricky didn't notice his complete ruling power.
"You're looking for your own death. Do you really think that having six mutants can make you an
invincible demi-spiritual emperor?"
Sneering, Oswald moved forward and grabbed the endless heavenly power, fusing it with his fist as he
punched out.
"Let's make it fair and square, shall we? Since you want to use your fist to crush me, let me return the
favor with a punch!"
Boom!
Soon after, the two fists crashed into each other. Among the sweeping air waves, two strong inverse
powers pervaded separately. As a result, Ricky and Oswald stepped back at the same time, leaving the
same deep trace in the void.
Seeing this magnificent display of power, all the people around them could not help but gasp in
astonishment.
To their surprise, Ricky not only resisted a punch from Oswald but also acted on par with him.
"How is this possible? Hasn't Oswald become a spiritual emperor yet? But he owns the real ruling
power!" warriors all around exclaimed with doubt.
"From the way I see it, Oswald is a real spiritual emperor. Although there is no chance for his power to
be improved, he remains a real spiritual emperor," a spiritual emperor said in a deep voice. "In fact, the
reason why Ricky was able to resist the attack is not that Oswald is a weak emperor, but because he
has become the legendary incredible demi-spiritual emperor!
An incredible demi-spiritual emperor has an incredible martial arts road. When a warrior achieves this,
he will use the incomplete ruling power to fight against and even defeat the complete ruling power!"
After his explanation, the entire area became silent. In fact, all the spiritual emperors, including Oswald,
just stared at Ricky.
They had not comprehended what the incredible demi-spiritual emperor meant until now when a real
incredible demi-spiritual emperor existed right before them.
Incredible demi-spiritual emperors appeared in countless eras, but only one incredible demi-spiritual
emperor could emerge within so many eras. In fact, in recent eras, any one of the incredible demi-
spiritual emperors was already considered to be unique and unparalleled.
At that moment, everyone was in shock that no one knew how long the silence had lasted.
"Sure enough, Ricky has become the legendary incredible demi-spiritual emperor. No wonder the aura
he releases is the same as that of a real spiritual emperor," Autelan said after understanding what had
happened.
"That's my brother!" Soar also exclaimed excitedly.
On the other hand, Tina, Pearl, and Amelia also felt enthusiastic because they were proud of the man
they loved.
It was widely known that an incredible demi-spiritual emperor was the symbol of supreme power.
"What?
He has become an incredible demi-spiritual emperor!" Oswald said grimly after recovering from shock.
"Perhaps, I should thank you for your help. If you hadn't kept me in your five-colored Thunderstroke
Doom, then there is no way for me to become the legendary incredible demi-spiritual emperor!" Ricky
said with a smirk.
Oswald became more somber after hearing Ricky's words.
This was because the fact told him that it was true. If it weren't for Ricky passing his five-colored
Thunderstroke Doom, then Ricky would have never become the incredible demi-spiritual emperor.
"Argghhhhh!" At that moment, Oswald's heart became more furious than ever.
"Elders, I hope you can give me an opportunity to fight against Oswald alone.
After all, it's my road of martial arts," Ricky said respectfully to the spiritual emperors around him.
As a reply, all the spiritual emperors around nodded in agreement. To be more specific, a kind of
invisible obedience force released by the incredible demi-spiritual emperor made them nod
involuntarily.
But of course, regardless of the influence of the incredible demi-spiritual emperor, these spiritual
emperors were willing to do that.
More importantly, no one wanted to be an incredible demi-spiritual emperor's enemy, so they needed to
have absolute confidence in him.
Moreover, Ricky's request had no conflict of interests with them, so it was not big of a deal because
they could also kill Oswald if Ricky failed to do so.
Perhaps, many of them also thought about using Oswald's hands to kill Ricky.
"Thank you so much," Ricky replied respectfully and then turned to look at Oswald.
Without a doubt, this was the beginning of the real battle between them.
