CHAPTER 683 AN ATTEMPT TO KILL RICKY

A month passed slowly by, and everything was merely the same in the Dark and Light Rock Array.

When Ricky and Pearl appeared, Jacob also showed up in front of them.

"Great! You took only a month to reach the minor achievement of the first phase. As I expected, you

have proven yourselves to be the most suitable to practice my cultivation method," Jacob said, with an

evil smile that made the corners of his mouth curve sharply upward. Knowing full well that Ricky and

Pearl could not have come out unless they had successfully completed learning how to use the

cultivation method.

Nevertheless, his tone also sounded somewhat desolate. Ricky and Pearl's successful practice of the

cultivation method indicated that he would have to make a complete disappearance sometime in the

near future.

He had been prepared to face everything with an open heart and an open mind. When the day finally

came, he suddenly felt a great reluctance to leave forever.

"Sir, I don't think practicing this cultivation method is something worth showing off," Ricky said to Jacob

as his lips pressed into a thin line. He was upset. In fact, he felt really depressed.

"Ha-ha!" Jacob burst into laughter because he could guess why Ricky's face looked so gloomy.

"Boy, you're not only well natured, but also highly gifted. I don't want you to die too early, so I need to

remind you of something," Jacob said to Ricky telepathically.

"Though I only have a superficial understanding of this girl's nature, I am concerned that she will try to

kill you after you break the center of the array together with her. For the sake of your safety, I suggest

that you request her to swear that she won't kill you with her dedication to martial arts.

I suggest that because the Dark and Light Rock Array will continue to work for a certain period of time Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

after it is broken. There will be ample opportunity and time for that girl to murder you."

"Don't worry about me, sir. I don't think she will kill me after the array is broken. There are three

powerful warriors in the Golden Passage after all. She will have to rely on my power to fight against

them. In fact, she and I are mortal enemies, but we have no choice but to work with each other," Ricky

explained to Jacob.

"I see. All right. In that case, just disregard what I said," Jacob said in a low and calm voice.

"By the way, I have something else I'd like to discuss with you. To be more specific, I am going to ask

you to do something for me—a favor if you would."

"Please, tell me what you need, sir," Ricky said, nodding his head.

No matter whether Jacob had been a hero or a devil previously, he had done something good by

fighting against the devils. He had lost his precious life in the battle. Because of that, Ricky thought he

should respect Jacob, so he would try his best to do whatever Jacob asked him to do.

"I founded a sect called Blood Evil Sect when I was still alive. I am sure you will grow stronger and

stronger in the future. If there's any chance that you might meet the Blood Evil Sect one day, please

help them if it is convenient for you to do so. If you find that they did something evil, you may kill them

for me instead," Jacob said.

"I understand," Ricky said, promising to do as Jacob requested.

"Inside the fixed rock, in the very far west, there are the storage rings of countless geniuses who gave

their lives here in the years that have passed. There is also a command token that belongs to me. You

may take them all away with you after you break the array," Jacob continued.

This time the desolation in his voice was much more obvious.

"Thank you for giving me so many precious gifts," Ricky said in a solemn voice. "But why are you only

saying this to me? Don't you think you're being a little biased?"

"Ha-ha! If you can make peace with this girl, there is no difference between giving to you or to her. If

you won't make peace with her, I would rather give all those things to you, because I made a demand

of you," Jacob explained.

"Ricky, I hope you spare no effort in your work, and stop at nothing in order to break the array," Pearl

said suddenly, but the tone of her voice made it sound more like an order.

"Pearl, I know you don't want to stay here, but you have to know that I don't want to stay here either,"

Ricky reminded in a flat tone.

Then the two of them walked to the rock the array was on, and began activating the Dark and Light

Dual Cultivation Method they had practiced. Ricky burst out the light power and Pearl burst out the dark

power. The two powers shot toward the rock simultaneously.

At that point, the black patterns didn't appear as quickly as they did before. It was not until the rock

suddenly broke that the black patterns appeared, spreading into the array around them.

Then the two of them saw a huge gray and white array show up. Undoubtedly, it was the Dark and

Light Rock Array. At the same time they sensed that the enormous power from the Dark and Light Rock

Array was starting to slowly fade away.

'The array is finally broken, ' Ricky thought to himself.

Jacob was right to believe in him. Meanwhile, a golden curved object, which was the length of about

twenty feet, fell slowly to the ground.

Ricky eventually saw that it was an antenna.

"That really is a Massacring Antenna. You won't be qualified to obtain the heritage of the Massacring

Holy Ant tribe unless you get two Massacring Antennae. So, good luck to you," Jacob said at that

moment.

His shadow had already begun to disperse.

"Sir," Ricky mumbled while putting away the Massacring Antenna. He somewhat loathed to have to part

with Jacob.

He didn't say anything else, though. He didn't think it was appropriate to feel unwilling to part with a

spiritual emperor that had died from a battle against the devils. Maybe Jacob felt that it was an honor to

die in such a way.

"Boy, you are both gifted and lucky. I hope that you will grow into an extremely powerful warrior. In that

case, maybe we will have the chance to meet again in the vast river of time," Jacob said, trying to

comfort Ricky.

As soon as the sound of his words faded, he disappeared completely into nothingness.

Ricky gave a solemn bow in the direction that Jacob had disappeared in, so as to express his respect

for the spiritual emperor for the last time.

However, something happened at that moment. He sensed that someone nearby had the intention of

killing him. The feeling was like a gust of cold wind blowing toward him from all directions.

"You should follow Jacob and disappear from here now, Ricky!" Pearl's cold voice cut through the air

out of the blue. Then, she directly activated her Feminine Mutant.

Ricky could feel that her Feminine Mutant had become more powerful than before. The dark power

created by the Feminine Mutant made his heart beat faster.

Meanwhile, Pearl began absorbing the feminine power of the Dark and Light Rock Array, which was

dispersing across all angles like a kaleidoscope all around them.

Just as Jacob had expected, Pearl really wanted to kill Ricky by making use of the power of the array.

'Jacob is an excellent prophet, ' Ricky thought to himself.

"Pearl, don't you think that it would be unwise to kill me at this moment?" Ricky said in a cold voice,

while releasing his aura.

"I can't make sure that what happened here will be kept secret unless you're dead. If you're dead, the

source of feminine in your body, which belongs to me, will return to my body," Pearl said coldly.

She was determined to kill Ricky because she would by no means want to become Ricky's woman. In

her opinion, a man could only be her slave.

She felt humiliated by the fact that she had been intimate with Ricky. She had no choice but to erase

the memory of her humiliation by any means necessary.

She didn't think that she would have another chance to kill Ricky, so she took advantage of that

moment and went straight for the kill.

"Even if you kill me now, you won't be able to get out of here. Do you think that you can beat Henry and

his two companions?" Ricky asked patiently.

"That's none of your business. The only thing I'm sure of is that I have to kill you right now," Pearl said

angrily.

A loud sound could be heard in a good distance away from them. While she was speaking, Pearl

condensed her long whip again. The long whip seemed to then be even more powerful.

"Shit! You won't listen to reason at all!" Ricky said in a frustrated and angry voice when he found that

Pearl was really going to launch an attack towards him. "Do you really think that you can beat me?"
