The legendary warrior

Chapter 16 The Nonuple Flame Strike



"Ricky...you...you..." Lewis and Vivian stammered in panic at the sight of Ricky killing Luther decisively. After all, Dustin had
achieved ninth grade of Skin Refinement, which stood like an insurmountable mountain before them.
"Relax; if Dustin asks about his brother's death, you guys can turn me in!" Ricky casually said, a mischievous smile on his face.
For people like Luther, there was nothing except death that could truly terrify them. That was why Ricky never spared people of
his kind, or else it would only lead to endless retaliation.
Lewis and Vivian were shocked to hear what Ricky had said. They looked at each other and made up their minds," Ricky, we
don't tell on friends. As for Luther's death, count us in."
...
Deep in the forest of pine trees, Ricky was holding a long knife and fighting against a giant silver wolf, which had a vertical snow-
white eye on the center of its forehead. The third eye meant that it was a three-eyed wolf, whose strength could reasonably be
compared with a warrior in sixth grade of Skin Refinement.
"Ricky is really amazing. He can fight a three-eyed silver wolf in sixth grade of Skin Refinement, with only fourth grade power,
and he doesn't seem to be losing at all," Vivian said with admiration, her eyes looking at him differently.
Beauties were always attracted to heroes.
"Actually, he is just using the wolf to practice his way of cutting. If he really wants it to die, the wolf won't make it a second
longer." Lewis signed, remarking," It is short-sighted for anyone who claims this guy doesn't have spiritual meridian."
Indeed, when Ricky felt he could wield the knife smoothly enough, he ended the poor wolf's life with one single strike.
"It looks like knives suit me well. I need to find a cultivation method using knives when I get back to the Snow Sect," Ricky said
casually, putting away the knife.
"But it's still a little slow in terms of enhancing my breakthrough. Eight days of intense fighting only took me to the peak of the
fourth grade of Skin Refinement, which is not good enough for the fight in twenty days," Ricky added, with some dissatisfaction.
However, if what Ricky said were to be heard by other warriors, he would be torn into pieces instantly. Because, as a matter of
fact, it usually takes a warrior at least two months to get from the initial fourth grade of Skin Refinement to the peak of the grade.
Even for some masters, one month of practice was necessary.

But Ricky had done it in only eight days!
"Lewis, Vivian, how many Body Refining Pills do you have? Can you lend them to me?" Ricky asked.
"Ricky, do you seriously plan to force a breakthrough from your current grade? Like now?" Lewis' asked, eyes widening.
"Alright, could you guys watch my back when I am making the breakthrough?" Ricky smiled at them. Days of getting along well
with them had made him trust Lewis and Vivian.
"Damn!" After cursing a little bit, Lewis handed all of his Body Refining Pills to Ricky.
"Ricky, don't you dare give them back to us. True friends don't do that," Vivian said and handed over her Body Refining Pills to
Ricky.
Why did he need so many Body Refining Pills for one breakthrough? They were curious about it, but since Ricky wouldn't tell,
they felt it would be unnecessary to ask.
"Ha, I wouldn't mind if I don't need to repay them!" Ricky replied jovially.
After finding themselves a cave, Ricky started the breakthrough without any hesitation. There were twenty Body Refining Pills
from Lewis and Vivian, twenty five from Luther, and combined with what Ricky already had, it was enough for this breakthrough.
Ricky consumed forty Body Refining Pills before he achieved fifth grade of Skin Refinement.
Now, Ricky's strength was significantly improved. The three of them then killed many more fierce beasts of sixth grade of Skin
Refinement, and returned with fruitful results.
Upon returning to the Snow Sect, they traded all the materials gathered from the beasts for 1, 000 silver coins. Each of them got
their fair share of over 300 coins, which made Ricky think that it was so much easier for warriors to make money compared to
ordinary people.
Of course, that was only true if you didn't get killed and eaten by the animals.
They went to the Medicine Pavilion, each spending 100 silver coins for three Spiritual Energy Nourishing Pills.
The Spiritual Energy Nourishing Pill, containing pure spiritual energy between the earth and sky, possessed the power to
effectively speed up the practicing of warriors in Skin Refinement level.

And in front of them, Ricky spent another 100 coins to buy 50 Body Refining Pills, which confused Lewis and Vivian even more.
"Ha, it'll do me no harm to refine my body a little bit more," Ricky said jokingly. But even he knew his reason was far-fetched.
Fortunately, the two didn't care too much about what he said. With Spiritual Energy Nourishing Pills in their pockets, they all
hurried back, because they couldn't wait for their own breakthroughs.
"There's only over 100 coins left, not enough to repay my master. But it is enough to buy a set of cultivation method for knives."
Deciding on this, Ricky went to the Cultivation Method Hall.
On his way there, disciples of different sects pointed and talked about him. It was obvious that the duel between him and Wade
had made him more famous than before in other sects.
Four floors of the Cultivation Method Hall displayed cultivation methods of different levels. It was said that only innate spirits and
leaders of a clan could have access to the fourth floor.
Ricky only had over 100 silver coins with him, so he had no choice but to stay on the first floor.
But in here, one couldn't expect cultivation methods of a higher level than inferior or intermediate stages of Yellow Level.
The truth was, a big sect like the Snow Sect was totally capable of providing cultivation methods at inferior or intermediate stage
of Yellow Level for free to their disciples. But with the intent of giving the disciples more pressure, they decide to charge for them.
Cultivation methods of inferior stages of Yellow Level cost around 20 coins, and that of intermediate stage of Yellow Level cost
roughly 60 coins.
Ricky mulled it over for a while and eventually bought a cultivation method of intermediate stage of Yellow Level named Nonuple
Flame Strike with 70 coins.
Now that the newly-traded 300 hundred silver coins had become less than 40, Ricky complained," It might be easier for warriors
to earn money, but it is never enough for me!"
Despite that, Ricky felt pretty comfortable with this book of Nonuple Flame Strike.
"The next thing to do is to practice the Nine-degree Body Refining Formula and Nonuple Flame Strike, and to prepare for the
duel 20 days later." Ricky muttered, ready to go and practice.

"Did you guys see that? That man without a spiritual meridian is trying to practice the Nonuple Flame Strike. Does he have a
death wish?" Some disciples said mockingly, seeing the cultivation method that Ricky chose.
"Nonuple Flame Strike represents a super strong method of knives, and it is said that the method can only be practiced by
warriors with spiritual meridian of fire nature!"
"Indeed! I heard that there was this disciple with spiritual meridian of water nature, who practiced the wrong nature of method. He
got his spiritual meridian destroyed and it nearly cost him his life."
"What do you know! A piece of trash without spiritual meridian doesn't deserve any nature. He can practice any methods of any
nature, but he is just a mimic with only mediocre skills. Ha-ha!" Among the din of the discussion, that laugh was ear-piercing.
"Look, that's Garfield, he gets along well with Hurley. Now there must be a good show to watch!"
