At this time, the remaining two battle rings had wholly merged. Molly and Eric then left respectively, but
neither of them left the core area. Instead, they prepared to watch the last battle for the grand
humanoid evil tree not far away.
"Hey, Eric. Who do you think will win this battle?" Molly whispered.
"Who do you want to win?" Eric asked instead. He didn't give a straight answer.
"Of course, I want it to be Rodger. Don't you see how disdainfully Queenie looked at me?"
Molly answered back in a cold tone. Eric didn't say anything more, but a small smile pulled at the
corner of his lips.
"Why are you smiling?"
"Nothing. I just thought that it might be quite difficult for Rodger to win this time, even though he has the
Heavenly Saber Mutant. As for Ricky, you already saw what he managed to do," said Eric with a shrug.
After that, the pair grew quiet as they both focused on the upcoming battle.
The fighting spirit and tension between Rodger and Ricky continuously thickened with each passing
second. Suddenly, Rodger broke the silence. "Ricky, I have felt the blade intent from you, and it's
probably more than forty percent. You must have been a saber master, too."
"I'm flattered, but I wouldn't call myself a saber master, especially not in the face of a blade master like
you. After all, you can manage fifty percent blade intent." Ricky threw a faint smile to Rodger.
He had to admit that his saber skills were not as outstanding as Rodger's, and he could even go so far
as to say that Rodger was far superior to him in this respect.
"I assure you that this is not just lip service. I am merely stating a fact I gathered from my observations
today. By the way, have you regained your strength at peak state?" Rodger asked.
"Sure, tackling ten more battles would be fine for me now." Ricky smiled.
"That's good to know. Okay, let's cut to the chase! I will take action first," declared Rodger. He was
keenly aware of the rules: the one who took the shot first would usually take the lead in all probability.
"Ha-ha, I'll be much obliged to see how powerful your Heaven Saber Mutant is." Ricky laughed
boisterously, as the inner energy inside him was bursting out.
With the buzzing sound, his array, the Wail of Ghosts and the Howl of Wolves, was revealed.
"You have seen it earlier, Rodger. This array is combined with my power at the peak state. If you can
destroy this array, you will win the battle," Ricky uttered sincerely as his figure was merged into the
array in an instant.
Rodger didn't mind his words and declared at the top of his lungs, "Heavenly Saber Stunts!"
At this moment, the real power of the Heavenly Saber Mutant was revealed. Everything around Rodger
had turned into the saber shadows, and everything was filled with nearly-fifty percent saber intent.
He might be the same as he was, but meanwhile he had become a sharp saber, peerless in other's
eyes.
As the Crimson Devil blood power swelled like a breaking wave, the Nether Body emerged from
Rodger's body.
The Crimson Devil blood power and the power of Supreme Ultimate once again fused.
This time, he concentrated all the energy in his hand.
"My skill, the Heavenly Saber Stunt contains the power from human, devil, heaven, and earth,"
Rodger declared loudly. His hair and robe flapped with the wind as if there was an air current coming
from below. At this point, he was the most competent saber master.
'Did Rodger invent the Heavenly Saber Stunt? Ricky thought to himself.
At this moment, he could feel the thick, cloying feel of danger in the air. It was even stronger than when
he was fighting Scales.
"Rodger is truly worthy of being called a saber holy being, and the Holy Three-Saber's name will suit
him well, too."
Even Dragon Intent Grass was effusive in its praise now. On the other hand, Ricky felt that the threat to
his life increased with every breath he took.
To this moment, Rodger's power was raised to the extreme. Four shadows of human, devil, heaven,
and earth emerged behind him, and all the four elements individually responded to his Heavenly Saber
Stunt.
Swish!
In the next breath, Rodger swung his saber three times.
One contained the power from human, one from devil, and one from earth.
"Ricky, keep your eyes open now, the three strikes I just sent out contain the power from human, devil,
and earth. Lastly, I will send out the strike which contains the power from heaven!" Rodger warned
Ricky in a deep, confident tone.
"Are these all the moves you wanted to show me? It makes me wonder how powerful you really are,"
Ricky murmured, and three Shadowy Replication appeared as he completed his finger posture.
The three Shadowy Replications burst out six mutants, chaotic power, and chromatic energy
simultaneously. Then, the three replicas rushed toward the saber strikes that contained the power from
human, devil, and earth respectively.
Boom!
As a result, the whole array was drowned out by the airwaves. Rodger's strikes exploded along with
Ricky's three Shadowy Replications.
Swish!
At the very moment of the explosion, the saber containing the power from heaven pierced through
Ricky's real body.
'It seems that the near-fifty percent blade intent could lead Rodger to my location in the array,' Ricky
thought to himself.
Without hesitation, he gathered all his strength and launched his strongest attack to fight back.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the next moment, an intense saber light burst out, blinding everyone with its tenacity. The force
generated by the explosion swept over everything, leaving chaos and destruction in its wake.
"Oneness of the Heavenly Saber Stunt!"
Rodger shouted out abruptly.
Everything changed at that very moment.
The power which originally contained in Rodger's previous three strikes disappeared, and then all of it
reappeared suddenly in the last strike that contained the power from heaven. The four strikes then
were integrated into one, bringing about an unprecedented power surge.
In a flash, it seemed like Rodger was about to break Ricky and destroy his array.
'I see. The Heavenly Saber Stunt is so powerful that any trike of them can summon the other three
strikes at any time.' Ricky suddenly realized something that he had never thought of before.
Truth be told. he didn't expect Rodger to be this strong, and he could not help but look at his opponent
with awe.
"You are indeed a genius with rich fighting experience!" Ricky commented with admiration.
"However, I still have an ace up my sleeve!"
He then roared with his Golden Spirit Eyes.
He had kept his Golden Spirit Eyes inactive during the fight with Scales in order to kill him by surprise.
Moreover, the power of his Golden Spirit Eyes could be considered his strongest move, as it could
eradicate any enemy, and it would always blow the mind of his rivals away.
However, Ricky didn't expect Scales to back out of their fight prematurely. So, he had not got a chance
to show his magical eyes ever since.
Now, a sense of crisis clouded over him like a thin, invisible mist. He thought it was time for him to
show his special eyes.
"Golden Spirit Attacks!"
With a roar from Ricky, thousands of feet of golden light exploded, and a golden world appeared. A
golden giant rose from the ground and fused with the power of the array. The golden giant then threw a
punch.
"What the hell!" Rodger was shocked by the punch; he couldn't believe his eyes. A shocked expression
froze over his face, even as the sound of fighting continued to rage around him.
Of course, the people around him, including Rodger, recognized Ricky's eyes immediately. "Eyes of
Heaven and Earth!" shouted Ricky with all his might.
Bang!
Under the attack of Golden Spirit Eyes, Rodger appeared inferior to Ricky, which was a sharp contrast
to their earlier situation. If Ricky defeated him with this move, he would have no more chance to
destroy Ricky's array.
Just like Scales, Rodger was a decisive person. He knew that there was no chance for him to win, so
he retreated all his power.
"Wow, Ricky! I can't believe you also have a pair of Eyes of Heaven and Earth. How enviable!" Rodger
shook his head while gathering all his vigor.
The sudden change of the Heavenly Saber Stunt had granted Rodger the chance to break Ricky's
array by surprise. However, Rodger didn't expect that Ricky owned a pair of Eyes of Heaven and Earth.
"At every critical point, Ricky showed so many trump cards that made me jealous!" Eric commented not
far away.
Since Ricky had just fought with Scales, nobody expected him to bring out more impressive moves.
They had all thought he was exhausted, so they were naturally stunned when they saw Ricky showed
off his another trump card.
"Actually, Rodger, I intended to show that move to Scales in the first place," Ricky remarked as he
faced Rodger. "But Scales was quite decisive. He preferred to admit defeat and leave at once, so I was
able to reserve it for my next deserving opponent, which turned out to be you."
