Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 1357 The Battle Continued

Jasper and Mike finished adjusting their breath right on time, and they immediately used their strength

to disperse the violent airwaves. With it gone, Ricky and Ronan finally came into view.

Their silhouettes painted a tableau of sorts that brought much relief to Jasper and Mike.

That was because, at that moment, Ricky was standing over Ronan's prone body with pure shura

power surrounding his body. Meanwhile, he was holding the Shura Justice Saber, which was shining

brightly with a scarlet-white light.

Ronan had nothing in his heart but fear and uncertainty, trembling like a leaf beneath the other man's

feet.

Even though he had burst out his strongest trump card, which was Adrian's power, he was still no

match for his opponent. He lost, fair and square.

"Somehow, you keep on proving that Scales was so much better than you. At least, when Scales

fought with me, he never cowered before me like a frightened rabbit,"

Ricky told Ronan, staring down at him condescendingly.

"Besides, Master Adrian's power belongs to the continent alone. No matter what you do, you won't be

able to understand it, let alone use it to its optimum strength.

From the very beginning, you were doomed to die in my hands."

The next instant, Ricky cut off Ronan's head and burned his soul with the sacred fire.

Whoosh! Seeing this, Jasper and Mike let out a relieved sigh.

"We're lucky we brought you here. I don't even want to imagine what would have happened if you

weren't here to fight that devil!"

Jasper confessed to Ricky. Although the fight had ended, his eyes still held a trace of fear.

After all, he didn't think those creatures from the devil race could actually enter this land.

"Well, let's bury Master Adrian's flesh and blood before anything else happens so that he could rest in

peace," said Ricky, prompting the pair to action.

"Okay!"

the two answered with a nod.

But just as the three of them moved towards Adrian's flesh and blood, which was still on Ronan's body,

it suddenly disappeared on its own!

When they saw this, Mike suspected what had happened and remarked, "Countless eras have passed,

so Master Adrian's flesh and blood should have faded already. But, instead, the devil race kept it,

making it coexist with the evil spirit, and it even absorbed the flesh and blood essence of many

creatures of the devil race. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

So, I think it's normal that it disappeared on its own, since Ronan is dead, and Master Adrian's flesh

and blood can't absorb his essence anymore."

"Even though a spiritual potentate is a creature of great stature, he could still die, and his body will

naturally disintegrate. I guess it doesn't matter how long you have cultivated unless you've become a

holy being, and all your efforts will be in vain,"

Ricky sighed dejectedly.

His words reflected a depressing reality, but the three of them didn't dwell on it much. After all, it was a

fact of life. They looked at Adrian's statue with thoughtful expressions.

But in the next moment, Ricky felt another confrontation between two forces. These came from Jasper

and Mike without a doubt.

"Jasper, Mike, can you stop for a second, please? I'd like to say something,"

interrupted Ricky.

"Of course, Ricky. Go ahead."

Mike nodded.

"Since I saved your lives, I hope the two of you would listen to my advice while you are staying in this

Passage World,"

started Ricky. "I understand the competitive nature of your relationship; I really do. But I hope you won't

have a life and death battle here inside this Passage World, as it can also put the rest of us in needless

danger.

Please prioritize everyone's safety. And when the selection is over, the two of you are free to have any

kind of battle you want. That's no skin off your nose, right?

After all, the devils alone would benefit if we lost one of you here. I believe you got a sample of that

earlier."

Ricky could only suggest this because he saved Jasper and Mike from certain death previously. If he

didn't, he would feel out of line because this was a matter between the Eight Diagrams' inheritors, and

he had no right to intervene.

Hearing Ricky's words, Jasper and Mike fell into a thoughtful silence.

"Jasper, I hope you will listen to me this time," Ricky added telepathically. "This isn't the right time to

have a duel to the death. What use will the inheritance be, if you die here anyway?"

"I get it, man. There's no way I can kill Mike after what happened with Ronan, at least, for now. We'll

have a truce,"

Jasper agreed emphatically.

"Mike, let's have a truce! We can have a duel, but we should be careful not to kill each other, okay?" he

then said to Mike, accepting Ricky's suggestion wholeheartedly.

"All right. Let's have our battle of life and death after the selection," Mike agreed. "Anyway, let's

continue our unfinished battle now. The winner will get the inheritance of the Law of Universe, and the

loser will surrender."

"And I'll be your referee!" Ricky chimed in with a cheerful smile. He was glad that, at least for now, his

friends wouldn't kill each other.

Boom! Boom! Boom! In a split second, the battle started again. Jasper and Mike had jumped at each

other at the altar, their attention focused solely on the fight.

One cultivated the Eight Diagrams' Law of Change, while the other cultivated the Eight Diagrams' Law

of Fortune-telling.

The two powers from the Eight Diagrams burst out and clashed over and over. Mike's and Jasper's

silhouettes came in and out of view, moving so quickly.

In terms of offensive power, the Law of Change was stronger because it was closer to the heavenly

law. The Law of Fortune-telling, on the other hand, was mysterious and unpredictable, so it could easily

resist any attack.

Technically, both of them possessed the Eight-Diagram Mutant, but one was related to the Law of

Change and the other the Law of Fortune-telling.

"Their power must be on a plane with each other since the Law of Change and the Law of Fortune-

telling are equally powerful. The result will depend on who has a deeper understanding of his own law,"

the Dragon Intent Grass surmised.

"This is an incredible fight!"

Ricky shook his head in awe and remarked. "These two are magnificent! If they had a deeper

understanding of their law, they can be on par with the top forces' talents from the inner region."

"That's for sure. The Eight Diagrams could be considered as one of the most ancient legacies in the

world. Its original owner was the top master of the initial era, so he must have been at the peak state of

the Divine Level,"

added the Dragon Intent Grass.

An hour later, the battle between the two had ascended to its fiercest stage. The two forces collided

with a loud explosion, and the dusty air billowed around them like a mist, shrouding the two as they

jumped away from each other.

"I don't think anyone will win if we continue like this, Jasper. How about we fight each other with our

strongest move? The outcome of our battle depends on the depths of our understanding of our

inheritance anyway, and that will be clear even with a single attack,"

Mike suggested telepathically.

"Sure, that sounds like a good idea!"

agreed Jasper.

"The Law of Fortune-telling, Fortune-telling Heaven!"

An ancient and mysterious force emerged from behind Mike's body right after he made a series of

gestures, symbolizing arrays. The mystical force swelled and surged like a raging river, which then

compressed and formed ten white heavens.

These ten white heavens were arranged in a specific pattern, and the Eight Diagrams' shadow

shrouded it like a cloud. At the same time, Jasper felt an incredible pressure that pushed him down,

coming from the combined force.

"Come on!"

When Jasper laid eyes on the suppressed heavens, his heart didn't waver. Instead, his fighting spirit

increased, and the Law of Change's purest power burst out of his body like a dam that had broken.

"The Law of Change! The power of Azure Dragon! The power of three stars!

Three stars in one!"

The Eight Diagrams rose over Jasper's head as a shining north star, while an Azure Dragon phantom

condensed in the distance. The Azure Dragon opened its mouth and spat out the power of the three

stars, which then formed the Eight Diagrams' strongest power.

Boom!

In the next breath, the two patterns of Eight Diagrams collided against each other, followed by their

Omnipotent Skills.

Ricky's eyes narrowed in interest, for he knew that this was the moment that would decide the victor

and the vanquished.

'I hope Jasper will win!'

he thought secretly to himself.

Around him, airwaves spread in all directions and turned into ripples. The power of the Eight Diagrams

had drowned everything like a flood, and nothing could be seen beyond the chalky breeze. A long time

passed before the debris had settled, but, finally, Ricky could see what happened to Mike and Jasper.

At this moment, the two of them hovered in the air, still as statues. Both of them were disheveled and

their breaths were barely there.

'Is it a draw again?'

Ricky wondered in silence as he beheld the scene.
