CHAPTER 582 A SMALL WORLD
The fourth-level Glazed Fruit was an invaluable treasure for the innate spiritual kings. It was extremely
difficult for them to get even just a single piece of the fruit because it required countless essence from
the heaven and earth for it to mature.
Terrence's deduction was right. It was probable that the fourth-level Glazed Fruit had devoured all the
vitality in this area, thus transforming it into the Virulent Sand Flow.
''I hope the fourth-level Glazed Fruit does exist in this desolated land. If it does, then I'll consider myself
lucky to have been transported to the Virulent Sand Flow, '' Ricky said expectantly. He cast his eyes
onto the Vitality Land before them.
''Let's go and find out!'' Soar, too, felt very excited at the possibility.
Thus, Ricky and his companions wasted no more time and hurriedly marched towards their target
destination.
Ricky placed the Virulent Sandy Crocodile into the Chaotic Fire Zone. He still needed the creature to
lead the way out of the Virulent Sand Flow after they explored the Vitality Land.
''Ricky, I have sensed auras of life that do not belong to the ruin beasts," Soar whispered the moment
they arrived at the Vitality Land.
''I have sensed them too. There must be someone else here, '' Ricky agreed. He and Soar shared the
same instincts and so they decided to be extra cautious.
Even Terrence and Madeline couldn't help but feel the said auras as well. The two nodded their heads
slightly in agreement.
''I guess that there were also other creatures who were transported into the Virulent Sand Flow with us
through the gateway. But they were lucky enough to have landed on the Vitality Land, to begin with, ''
Ricky deduced.
They gave each other a quick glance before they headed for the direction where the other living
creatures were present.
Figuring out that it was already too late to do it, they opted not to conceal their auras. Anyway, the other
creatures might have also already sensed their existences.
Upon their arrival, Ricky and his companions instantly sensed how the mysterious attractive force had
mysteriously disappeared. This meant two possibilities: One was that they were probably able to fly in
the air, and the other was that they might have cut open a portal in space.
''I know the world is enormous, and that's why we shouldn't be surprised at all. The attractive force was
omnipresent outside the Vitality Land, but it was completely gone the moment we entered this area, ''
Ricky sighed softly.
''Given our current state, the power of heaven and earth are too mysterious for us to be able to
comprehend. Perhaps, once we become innate spiritual emperors, we can finally comprehend a
portion of it," Terrence acknowledged, rather pensively. His voice was soft, but it had a richness that
sounded thoughtful and deep.
Finally, they reached the center of the Vitality Land where most of the other creatures existed.
Ricky immediately discovered that there were four figures squatting in the air, waiting for something to
happen.
But, what really caught his attention was the sight of a green tree. When he looked more closely, four
glazed fruits grew on it. The peculiar green tree was being surrounded by the four mysterious figures.
However, palpably impure auras and energies emanated strongly from the Glazed Fruits. The fruits had
not completely matured yet.
In addition, the four fruits also happened to be fourth-level Glazed Fruits. As such, the fruits, despite
being in its unripe state, were still fatally alluring to the innate spiritual kings.
'There is no denying it—those reaping are the fourth-level Glazed Fruits!' Ricky and his companions
mentally exclaimed altogether. Just by looking at each other, they instantly reached a unanimous
decision: they were all determined to acquire the Glazed Fruits.
Indeed, the four strangers found the Glazed Fruits first before Ricky and his group did. On the contrary,
the possibility that the Glazed Fruits belonged to the strangers never crossed Ricky's mind. After all,
the fruits were yet to reach maturity.
Even if it so happened that the four strangers had already kept the fruits in their pockets, Ricky would
still put up a fight for those precious fruits.
The truth was, Ricky was so prepared to engage them in combat because he had recognized their
identities all along. All four of them were members of the Bing Clan, and Louie was one of them.
Ricky glared at Louie and his companions. His eyes looked stern and determined.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Simultaneously, the four members of the Bing Clan opened their eyes. Save for Louie, his companions
were the least bit shocked as their eyes laid on Ricky's figure and countenance. Only Louie appeared
to be emotionally moved by their appearance. He had a surprised reaction on his face upon seeing
Ricky. Next, his facial expression curved into a cloud of bitterness at the mere presence of Soar.
The memory of his defeat at the hands of Soar left Louie seething with rage and displeasure.
''Ha-ha! God is with me, indeed. All of the creatures in the Land of Legacy have been searching
tirelessly for you. And yet, here you are. Who'd have thought that you would deliver yourself to me,
unannounced?'' one of them uttered with a mocking smile on his face. By this time, all four of them had
already descended on the ground. It appeared that this cocky young man was their team leader.
''He is Justin Bing, a fellow young genius, just like you. If my memory serves me right, he is a third-
class middle spiritual king.'' Terrence used their telepathic link to secretly convey the information to
Ricky.
''Louie is nothing but a small-fry to me. Even if he has transformed into a middle spiritual king, his
power is weaker compared to us. As for the other two, Casado Bing and Kevin Bing, it is said that they
harness the same cultivation method, and their combined power could rival that of a third-class middle
spiritual king's."
''Their team is almost as powerful as ours. There's no way to find out just yet who will emerge
victorious unless we fight them, '' Ricky bellowed as he manifested his inner strength.
''Oh, do you really believe that God has blessed you?'' Ricky looked at Justin Bing with a scornful
smile. "What a small world it is, indeed. I pity all four of you. You may have been fortunate enough to
have found the fourth-level Glazed Fruits, but you are bound to die miserably right before you can even
harvest them.''
Ricky had previously feuded with the Bing Clan. Showing mercy was no longer necessary. Admittedly,
he wouldn't mind eliminating the source of his trouble the moment he got the chance.
''Ha-ha. Don't get cocky, Ricky. Being an ace genius does not make you invincible.'' Justin Bing's smile
beamed with confidence. Ricky's exaggerated remarks did not faze him at all.
''If you truly are as powerful as Jasper, then I would not be so foolish as to fight you. But the sad truth
is, you are nothing compared to him. So hand over all your items, and I promise you a decent death, ''
Justin Bing growled with eyes that gleamed with the strong intent to kill.
''Have you lost your mind? You are the ones who are about to be killed!'' Ricky grinned. His confidence
never wavered.
''Let's kill them with a direct shot, Justin. I'll take care of Soar, '' Louie snarled in a gruff voice. It was
becoming increasingly difficult for him to hold back the anger that burned wildly in his chest. If his
vicious eyes could kill people, then Soar would have been eradicated thousands of times just by being
the sole subject of Louie's death glares.
Without further hesitation, Louie concentrated his energy and launched his Ice Punch at Soar. This belongs to : ©.
''You already lost to me once before. You cannot defeat me this time, either." Soar shrugged off Louie's
attack with much disdain.
While he wreathed himself in the scorching flames, Soar stomped his feet mightily on the ground. In the
blink of an eye, he appeared right in front of Louie. When he saw that he successfully caught his
enemy off-guard, Soar launched his Flame Punch. His Flame Punch collided with Louie's Ice Punch.
Boom! The fierce collision between the two opposing forces left multiple bursts of dust in the air
The intense battle did not last that long, however, for Louie's ice was easily crumbled under the wrath
of Soar's ferocious flame.
Bang! A figure was thrown flying into the air before it abruptly fell on the ground with a loud thud. Blood
gushed out of the poor fellow's weakened body.
The figure turned out to be Louie.
It all happened in a matter of seconds! Louie was hastily defeated after just receiving what was
supposed to be minimal damages from Soar's flames.
