CHAPTER 675 EXCHANGE

That black flame was none other than the Heaven Illuminating Fire.

Wasn't it said that the dark water could freeze weak creatures and everything else? Ricky wanted to

check whether it could freeze his Heaven Illuminating Fire.

As Ricky had expected, the Heaven Illuminating Fire burned the dark ice.

Additionally, not just the ice on Ricky's body, but also the ice in the whole area was covered by Heaven

Illuminating Fire in an instant.

Under Ricky's control, the attack of the Heaven Illuminating Fire didn't burn or hurt Pearl at all.

And just in a little while, under the scorching heat of the Heaven Illuminating Fire, all the ice in the

whole area turned into cold gas and flowed back into the dark water.

After seeing this unfold in front of her, Pearl was struck dumb and stood frozen.

How could it be possible? How was this black flame able to burn the cold ice condensed by dark

water? Pearl thought incredulously as she was completely stunned.

She had really miscalculated this time. What Ricky had done was far beyond her imagination.

To make matters worse, the black flame broken out by Ricky could even burn the incredibly cold ice.

Undoubtedly, this flame could burn anything and everything.

This time, Ricky had shocked her with his trump card once again.

Maybe Ricky possessed other powerful trump cards as well which were even stronger than the power

of his golden eyes, or maybe he didn't. At this moment, Ricky's real strength was the mystery, like

being covered with a supremely fine veil that didn't allow Pearl to see through him.

"Pearl, it seems that you don't have to help right now," Ricky smiled smugly, looking at Pearl.

"Humph!" Pearl snorted at Ricky's self-satisfied grin.

Right then, Ricky no longer had any hesitation. He manipulated the Heaven Illuminating Fire to change

into a cage, using it to envelop the remaining half of the dark water. Then he put that half of the dark

water into the Devourer Zone.

When she saw Ricky collect the remaining half of the black water, Pearl's eyes turned slightly reluctant.

That was because the dark water really made an extremely strong effect on her Feminine Mutant.

At this point, had they not committed already to fight together, Pearl would have rushed to Ricky and

taken the dark water down. She really couldn't help herself.

"It seems that the dark water appeals to Pearl very strongly and I can clearly feel that she even wants

to kill me and gets that half of dark water right now," Ricky said to Tina as he sensed the faint killing

intent from Pearl.

"That's for sure. After all, the dark water is as tempting for Pearl as the Massacring Sand and Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Massacring Soil are for you," Tina replied.

"Ricky, I know that even you are after the Massacring Sand that Pearl has got."

"Ha-ha! Sure enough, no one knows me better than you Tina," Ricky laughed out loudly on hearing

Tina's remark.

...

After they collected the dark water, the Dark Nether Array disappeared. Then, the two of them entered

the Heavenly Passage again.

"Then there is the final test left for us. After we pass this final test in the Heavenly Passage, we can

move forward to obtain the Massacring Antenna. And eventually, we will be able to open the

inheritance of the Massacring Holy Ant tribe," Ricky announced seriously.

As he knew very well that this was also the time to fight Henry and his companions.

Ricky knew at the bottom of his heart that Henry was actually quite a tough opponent. In spite of his

confidence, Ricky felt more solemn when he thought about him.

But running away wouldn't solve any problems. There was no hiding from what he needed to face.

What must be, must be. This was the real and ruthless world of martial arts and every chance was

accompanied by the price of life.

'I hope that I would be the lucky one!' Ricky thought with expectations.

The next moment, Ricky started to move on.

But just at the same instant, Pearl stopped him and said to him softly, "Ricky, there is one thing I want

to discuss with you."

"Oh? What is the matter?" Ricky was a little confused and asked curiously on hearing Pearl's words.

"What attracts you more, the Massacring Sand or the dark water?" Pearl asked him directly with

frankness.

"I think I know where you're getting at. You want to exchange the Massacring Sand of yours for my dark

water," Ricky answered at once, understanding Pearl's intentions.

"You're right. I suppose that the Massacring Sand would be of great help to your cultivation of the

golden body. No matter how many Massacring Sand you have, it's probably not enough for you. And at

the same time, it's the same situation for me when it comes to my need of the dark water," Pearl said in

response.

"In this way, the best solution would be to exchange our resources. It's a win-win situation benefitting

both of us, so why not?

Perhaps your black flame can help you refine the dark water, but refining the dark water is definitely not

as good as refining the Massacring Sand. I think you know this better than I do."

"Ha-ha! Pearl, you're right. This kind of exchange is actually an appealing idea!" Ricky smiled after

hearing Pearl's words.

"So what is your decision?" Pearl asked.

"My decision, of course, is to exchange. It will help us both in getting the things we desire. However, I

want to keep a tenth of the dark water and you can also keep a tenth of your Massacring Sand," Ricky

proposed.

"After all, in the future, the Massacring Sand to you and the dark water to me may come useful

sometime."

"All right. Let's do it," Pearl said.

"I can't figure whether this exchange is your loss or mine," Ricky smirked.

"If the progress of my Feminine Mutant is more than that of your golden body, it is your loss; otherwise

it would be mine," Pearl said candidly.

"If so, I hope we can make the same progress. I don't want to make a losing deal," Ricky smiled

genuinely.

"I hope so. I also don't want to make a loss on the deal and the exchange," Pearl replied.

Although they both said so on the face, in their hearts, each was confident that their progress would be

greater than the other person's.

After the exchange, the two moved on and were ready to face the third test of the Heavenly Passage.

They both looked forward to it. That was because only by obtaining the Massacring Antenna from the

third test could they be entitled to take part in the battle for the inheritance of Massacring Holy Ant tribe.

...

After half an hour, the Heavenly Passage changed again in a jiffy. They were transported to another

place and could feel the power everywhere. Apparently, they had entered another array.

This time, the array was a rock zone.

All around them was rock, and even in the middle of the air, huge chunks of rock were floating.

This rock zone was divided into two parts. Half of the zone was permeated with the massacring power,

and the other half was permeated with the dark power.

It seemed that this rock array was a combination of the previous Golden Light Array and Dark Nether

Array.

"It feels like this is an array with dual attributes. Next, about how to go about breaking the array, I think

that it's quite obvious to both you and me. You deal with the dark part of the array and I will deal with

the massacring part," Ricky said to Pearl after he took a look at the array.

"That's for sure. I wonder whether the so-called Massacring Antenna is really in this rock array and

what exactly the test of this array is," Pearl speculated out loud.
