CHAPTER 426 THE FINAL BLOW

After being knocked out by Ricky's palm attack, Sham fell on the shabby competition platform. He

shook his head hard and yelled in rage. His usual calmness as an assassin faded away as his eyes

filled up with fear.

The most powerful ultimate skill in his art of slaughtering was the Shadowy Fatal Attack—a fusion of

the Shadowy Replication and his strongest slaughtering cultivation methods. He had to exert his full

power just to activate this skill.

More than that, once this lethal attack had been made, there was no turning back. Theoretically, even if

Sham didn't managed to kill Ricky, both of them were still likely to get injured by Sham's attack.

Surprisingly, however, Ricky remained unharmed after the attack. On the other hand, Sham was

seriously wounded, and his power was completely plundered by the mysterious power of Ricky's palm

attack.

Such mysterious power was so terrifyingly mighty that the moment it began to take effect, Sham was

forced to exert all his power in vain. In that moment, he was helpless—just like a lamb to the slaughter.

What frightened Sham even more was how, right from the beginning, Ricky paid no attention to the

shadowy replications of Sham's sword at all. It was obvious that Ricky could distinguish the original

sword from the shadowy duplicate ones created in Sham's Shadowy Fatal Attack.

What formidable power!

Sham saw himself as a genius and star in the Realm of Wildness with years of slaughter experiences.

If he fought against someone mighty like Hoffman, the fight would just end in a draw.

But his genius was rendered useless by Ricky—a warrior a grade lower than him. He was so easily

defeated by Ricky that his conceitedness and invincible arrogance were devastated

Now, he felt frightened and perplexed about what to do.

"You must be wondering why you were defeated. Well, let me tell you the reason. This martial skill is

called Vitality Plundering Palm. If an opponent, less powerful than me, goes all out with no defense in a

fight, his power will be entirely plundered once this skill is practiced," Ricky explained in a slightly

condescending tone as he glared at his frightened opponent.

The Vitality Plundering Palm was a pivotal destructive marital skill developed from Ricky's

comprehension of the Chaotic Fire Skill and the legacies of the Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor, including

the Ruin Fire and the martial arts inheritance.

The Ruin Fire was already originally at the demi-spiritual emperor level since it once belonged to the

Ruin Demi-spiritual Emperor. Therefore, Ricky did not need to spend time growing it to suit his

cultivation level, and was able to use it at once.

Once he figured out the features of the Ruin Fire, it did not take long for Ricky to develop this skill.

While going through the cultivation process, he also practiced the Chaotic Fire Zone and the Chaotic

Fire Skill in conjunction with the martial arts inheritance he received from the Ruin Demi-spiritual

Emperor.

As could be told from its name, the power of the Vitality Plundering Palm which contained the energy of

the Ruin Fire and the chaotic fire runes, could plunder all the vitality and power of an opponent and

exponentially weaken his strength. copyrighted © content.

More than that, this skill could only be utilized fully by someone competent enough.

"My vitality was plundered! My vitality was actually plundered!" Sham murmured fearfully, as he

understood what Ricky said.

"Sham was actually defeated!" warriors outside the competition platform exclaimed as they watched

the ongoing scene. They took pity on Sham, not because of the result of the fight, but because their

prediction came true.

They felt sorry for Sham, a famous genius in the Realm of Wildness who was about to die after such a

crushing defeat.

"Sham, the future fight between you and me seems impossible now," Hoffman lamented.

Hoffman and Sham had always regarded each other as the only significant opponent in any life-or-

death fight. Since they considered themselves equals to some extent, they still felt for each other in

some situations despite serving different forces.

Knowing that Sham was about to perish, Hoffman couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.

...

"Now that you have gone all out, it's pretty clear that you no longer have any regrets. It's time for me to

end this fight now," Ricky said as he looked at Sham, his tone changing to one with a tinge of respect.

Ricky decided to kill Sham with courtesy, as he saw Sham as an opponent worthy of his respect. He

genuinely respected Sham as a powerful warrior, despite the fact that they were enemies.

Then, Ricky took out the Iron Destroyer and exerted the Ruin Fire on it, and pointed it directly at

Sham's neck.

"Ricky, if you dare to kill Sham, the Endless Shadow will certainly destroy your Misty South Palace and

kill everyone linked with you instantly," several warriors of the Endless Shadow said threateningly.

However, Ricky turned a deaf ear to this threat and directly cut off Sham's head using the Iron

Destroyer.

Sham's head was sent flying into the air.

Nobody seemed to notice that there was actually no blood dripping from Sham's severed head. As for

Ricky, it seemed unclear whether he noticed or not.

At once, the shadowy replication of Sham, who became headless now, magically turned into another

Sham with a head. Then, a beam of sword light flashed, and all of a sudden, the new Sham stabbed

Ricky's abdomen with a soft-iron sword.

"See? I, Sham, is still the final winner!" said a deep murderous voice right after Ricky was stabbed.

Then suddenly, the headless Sham transformed into black spiritual energy and vanished.

"How unanticipated!" warriors outside the platform exclaimed. As they looked back and reflected on the

whole fighting process, they came to an understanding. Then, they said in astonishment, "Obviously

the experienced warrior is bound to excel. Sham was able to trick Ricky using the Shadowy

Replication."

"The moment Ricky believed that Sham was dead, Sham carried out a lethal attack on Ricky!" they

added.

Sham had actually applied the Shadowy Replication not only to the Shadowy Fatal Attack, but also to

himself. When he exerted the Shadowy Fatal Attack, he swiftly transposed himself and one of the

shadowy replications and then manipulated his duplicate counterfeits into carrying out attacks.

"Oh, Ricky was unexpectedly stabbed!" Hoffman exclaimed with his eyes wide open, commiserating

with Ricky this time.

"Ricky!"

"Ricky!" Kristen and Tyson shouted anxiously upon seeing that the stab could obviously be deadly for

Ricky.

They were too scared to even imagine what would happen next. They were completely helpless—there

was nothing they could do to help Ricky. They couldn't enter other competition platforms of the Fortune

Pond like the one where Ricky and Sham fought.

...

"Ricky, you are indeed extremely powerful. It's astonishing that you were able to identify the original

sword of my Shadowy Fatal Attack and its attack direction," said Sham, as he stabbed deeper into

Ricky's body with the soft-iron sword.

"But you will never know my actual ability to exert the Shadowy Replication. I can not only create eight

shadowy replications but also swiftly transpose myself and one of them, in order to trick you into

mistaking one of my duplicate counterfeits for the real me.

Well, that's why I deserve to be the invincible genius assassin of the Endless Shadow.

You may rest in peace now, Ricky."

"Indeed, I didn't spot your final trick, but you seem to be overlooking the most important reason why I, a

warrior at the ninth grade of Bone Reinforcement, can challenge you, a demi-immortal assassin," Ricky

responded coldly after hearing what Sham said. A murderous expression flashed in Ricky's eyes.

Then, golden light started shining brightly on Ricky's body, and his momentum started building up. In an

instant, his top was torn to shreds, and his strong, flawless golden body was exposed.

It immediately became apparent that the soft-iron sword stabbed Ricky's abdomen in vain. Instead, it

merely became a lump under the power of Ricky's Nine-degree Body Refining Formula.

"No! It can't be! It's impossible!" Sham exclaimed in sheer panic as he witnessed the unexpected

scene.
