CHAPTER 618 ENTERING THE CORRIDORS

Finally, the fierce battle came to an end. Tobias, Duncan, and other Golden Rhino warriors were all

killed.

Duncan was not able to beat Terrence when the latter had used all his strength. The reasons for this

were obvious. Firstly, Terrence had way better blood power than Duncan. And secondly, Terrence had

learned far more from Killing Swordsmanship than Duncan had from the Golden Enlightenment.

Besides, Duncan didn't have a mutant like Tobias did.

Soar's power had greatly improved after he absorbed the Enlightening Fruit. When he used his

complete strength, sparing nothing, Keith could only resist his attack for a short while.

Thus, all the schemes of the Golden Rhino tribe were destroyed by Ricky and his fellows with their

exceptional skills and strengths.

It was not until they finished the battle and checked the huge dead bodies lying on the ground that they

finally sighed with relief.

"Soar, put away the four dead Golden Rhinos. We can enjoy the roasted whole rhinos after we get out

of here," Ricky said with a faint smile on his face as he sat on the ground in a cross-legged position.

"Haha...I understand, Ricky. We must make full use of the meat of these spiritual king beasts," Soar

responded to Ricky with a grin. Then he picked up and put away all the dead Golden Rhinos right away

as Ricky had requested.

"Ricky, are you okay?" Terrence asked. His worry was apparent in his voice as he waited for Ricky's

answer with bated breath.

His tension was understandable because he could sense that Ricky's breath was weaker and less

stable. He wondered if the foundation of Ricky's martial arts had been affected during the intense

battle. Terrence was right. After-effects would be left to Ricky after he absorbed the blood vitality in the

Devourer Zone in that way.

If the same thing had happened to any other warrior, the after-effects might not leave their bodies in

their lifetime. However, for Ricky, a man who possessed four zones, the after-effects would be removed

completely just after a certain time.

"I'm fine, nothing to worry about. It's just that the battle was too fierce. I think, maybe I had

underestimated the Golden Flame Mutant," Ricky answered impassively.

As soon as he spoke about the Golden Flame Mutant, Ricky remembered the Golden Holy Fire.

Immediately, he communicated to Soar, "Soar, please give Tobias' corpse to me when we enter the

corridors in a while. I have to absorb the Golden Holy Fire in his body."

"Just set your mind at rest, Ricky. I understand. I would have done that even if you hadn't told me to,"

Soar responded, calming Ricky down.

"Thank you, buddy!" Ricky said with gratitude and relaxed. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Ricky, first of all, I think you'd better enter the Enlightening Corridor with Samson. There is the purest

enlightening energy in the Enlightening Corridor, which will help you and Samson recover a lot more

quickly," Terrence suggested.

"Okay. I hope the enlightening energy in the Enlightening Corridor will not disappoint me," Ricky said,

chuckling. "We'd better not lose any time. You should enter the Martial Corridor as soon as possible.

Let's meet again when the four corridors merge."

Then without any hesitation, Ricky entered the Enlightening Corridor alone, while Soar, Terrence and

others entered the Martial Corridor.

Inside the Enlightening Corridor, there were spiraling dark spaces, like the densely distributed stars in

the universe.

The moment Ricky entered the Enlightening Corridor, he felt as if the pores all over his body got

relaxed. It was as if he was bathed in the purest water in the Enlightening Pond.

The feeling was so incredible yet so real. Ricky felt like all the after-effects in his body were completely

removed and his strength came back to its peak state.

'Just as I had expected, the Enlightening Corridor is by no means a common one. I can feel the most

pristine and purest enlightening energy here. After practicing here for some time, I will recover from all

the after-effects, ' Ricky thought to himself, overwhelmed with emotion.

"Tina, you'd better get out and practice here for some time as well," Ricky urged Tina.

"Ricky, this is definitely a great opportunity. But I will not be able to make any improvement as long as

the evil spirit is not eliminated from my body," Tina sighed.

"That damn evil spirit!" Ricky shouted resentfully when he heard Tina's response.

"Ricky, please don't be mad. I feel like I've recovered a lot with your help and I am very grateful to you

for removing part of the evil spirit for me," Tina reassured Ricky with a smile.

"Tina, I have a feeling that my comprehension of devouring energy will surely deepen when I become a

middle spiritual king. I think I can remove the evil spirit from your body in a more effective manner

then," Ricky replied seriously.

"Ricky, I don't need anything else as long as you're by my side. I won't be afraid even if the evil spirit

will stay in my body till I die," Tina said softly with shyness dripping from her voice.

Taking this opportunity, she demurely confessed her affection towards Ricky.

Ricky was dumbstruck by her confession. After being dazed for a while, he stuttered, "T-Tina, I...I don't

know..."

"Ricky, I know who you're falling in love with but I will wait. I want nothing more but to have a tiny place

in your heart," Tina interrupted Ricky before he could finish his sentence.

Ricky fell silent on hearing Tina's words.

He really didn't know what to say to her. He had to admit that Tina did occupy a very special place in

his heart. In fact, her place in his heart seemed unshakeable and he had unknowingly started

depending on her unconditionally.

However, he couldn't deny that Grace and another girl also had pieces of his heart at the same time.

'I sure am fickle-minded, right?' Ricky thought, laughing at himself.

'Or should I act according to Soar's advice? He did say that a man was supposed to have many

women.'

"What the hell am I thinking about?" Ricky mumbled, shaking his head to get out of this loop of thought

that he was getting into.

"What are you thinking about, Ricky?" Tina asked curiously when she saw that Ricky lost in his

thoughts.

"Well, it's nothing important!" Ricky answered hastily.

The two of them stopped talking about this topic.

After having this awkward conversation with Tina, Ricky took Samson out of the Chaotic Fire Zone. He

used the enlightening energy to wake Samson up, letting him recover in the Enlightening Corridor as

well.

Of course, he told Samson what had happened in detail

since the latter lost consciousness.

After that, Ricky and Samson practiced and recovered together in the Enlightening Corridor. It was

obvious that their strength was increasing constantly, which proved how strong the value of the

Enlightening Corridor was.

Half a month later, the two of them not only recovered but also enhanced their strength. However,

neither of them chose to make a breakthrough. That was because both of them thought that they had

broken through too quickly recently and thus they'd better practice for some more time at the current

level.

It was worth mentioning that all the after-effects had been eliminated from Ricky's body.

It was great news for him.

During the period of time when Ricky and Samson had been recovering, the four corridors had merged

together for quite a few times and many new ghosts were born.

When the four spaces were merging, they got to know something about the Ghost Corridor and the

Resentment Corridor. They had only one feeling and that was the two corridors were extremely

dangerous.

As a result, they dared not get close to the Ghost Corridor or the Resentment Corridor after the four

corridors merged.

They were sure that Martin had become a ghost in the Ghost Corridor. Maybe Martin's ghost would

become a new ghost in the Land of Ghosts before long.

After both of them recovered completely, Ricky and Samson shifted to the Martial Corridor.

In the Martial Corridor, there were spiral spaces as well. When they entered the corridor, Ricky felt a

strong aura of martial arts infused in the whole space. Numerous voices talking about experience of

martial arts filtered through his ears, which would enter his body even if he didn't try to absorb them at

his own accord.
