Chapter 1174 The Incomplete Map

"By the way, please tell the auctioneer to continue the auction. Don't wait for my signal anymore," Edie
told the manservant. Even if Ricky couldn't offer anything in exchange, he wouldn't let everyone know
about it.

He already expected that Ricky had nothing to offer in exchange, but he had planned to ask Ricky to do
something in return instead.

It was better for Ricky to work for them than for harm to come to him after all. "Got it!" the servant
replied and left quickly.

Just as Edie instructed, it didn't take long before the auction continued.

"Next, we are going to show you the third item!" Saying this, the quickly brought out the last item,
presenting it to the audience. However, the warriors paid no attention to it yet, as they were all busy
waiting for news about Ricky.

"So it is true that Kenney has six hundred and fifty zones of cultivation resources? He was able to pay,
right? That's why the auction is continuing?" All the warriors in the hall were astonished when the
auctioneer decided to proceed. They had all expected that Ricky would not be able to provide six
hundred and fifty zones of cultivation resources, and they were waiting for him to either get beaten up
or thrown out.

"Who knows!"

"The Wind-Mountain Alliance must trust him a lot, and maybe they have resolved this matter internally.
Or they could be cheating us by working with each other!"

"Not necessarily. I don't know about you, but I have a strong feeling that Kenney is not as simple as we
think. Besides, the Wind-Mountain Alliance has never cheated anyone these past years, so why would



they do it now?"

At this moment, a variety of discussions could be heard in the crowd.

"We will know whether he is cheating us after the auction ends and he leaves. We can follow him
secretly then," the team leaders of the Moon Dragon Palace and the Star Tiger Palace talked to each
other through telepathy.

"That's right. Hutton won't let him go easily. We just need to follow him secretly."

Meanwhile, Ricky and Edie were talking in the castle's secret room.

"I really want to be friends with you, Kenney, but there are still some things that need to be done by the
book. I can't protect you this time, and if you can't provide anything of equal value, the consequences
will be really serious," Edie told Ricky straightforwardly as soon as he stepped foot inside.

"Don't worry! I know the rules," Ricky replied with a smile.

"So what are you going to give us in order to get that tusk?" the Thousand-hand Emperor asked.

"Edie, can you tell me whether the power you cultivated is the power of the wind?" Ricky asked first
without answering the Thousand-hand Emperor. From the moment Ricky observed Edie with his
Golden Spirit Eyes, he had known that he cultivated the wind element.

"You are right. I'm cultivating the power of the wind." Edie nodded, though he still looked confused.

"In that case, have you ever heard of the power of the gale?" Ricky asked.

"Of course, I've heard about it. It's a kind of power that evolved from the power of the wind. In fact, it is
an extreme version of the wind's power. The power of the gale is unpredictable and formless, and it's
also one of the strongest powers," responded Edie lengthily.



"To be honest, my aim is to achieve the gale supreme enlightenment," he added further.

"If I give you a ball of Gale Fire, will you agree to let me have the tusk?" Ricky smiled.

Both Edie and the Thousand-hand Emperor were dumbfounded when they heard his offer.

They felt like their ears were stuffed with cotton, and they could not help but wonder if they only
misheard him.

"Are you serious, Kenney?" Edie asked seriously after a few seconds of silence.

Meanwhile, the Thousand-hand Emperor was still staring at Ricky speechlessly.

"I won't make fun of such a thing," Ricky guaranteed with a smile.

The next moment, he put his palm out, and a ball of Gale Fire appeared over it in an instant. He then
said in a low voice, "I have controlled over this Gale Fire, and it is at the level of a two-star lower
spiritual emperor, which is suitable for your current level

As for how powerful this fire can become in the future depends on your own ability."

"It is indeed the peculiar fire!" the Thousand-hand Emperor said in shock. As an upper spiritual
emperor of the older generation, he could certainly recognize the peculiar fire.

"It is the power of gale, the power of peculiar fire! This fire is really the Gale Fire!" Edie gasped
breathlessly, and he could not help but take the fire from Ricky's palm into his.

After a long time, Edie managed to restrain his excitement a little bit.

"Kenney, I don't want to take advantage of you. The value of this Gale Fire is far beyond six hundred
and fifty zones of cultivation resources. It could easily be double that or even more!" Edie said
hesitantly, shaking his head. Then he continued,



"So, please don't hesitate to tell us if you have any other requests. For example, we can send you to
the Eastern Land through the Transmission Array."

"Wow! Really? The Wind-Mountain Alliance has a Transmission Array to the Middle Land?" Ricky said
excitedly.

"Of course!" Edie nodded enthusiastically in reply.

"Okay, then that will be my request. But it's not time for me to leave yet," replied Ricky mysteriously.

Edie only nodded in reply and didn't ask anymore, for he didn't think Ricky would tell him anyway. He
only assured him, "It all depends on you! Just tell us when, and we will do it."

"Thank you very much!" As they exchanged these pleasantries, Edie and Ricky could not help but size
each other up.

'How could he use the peculiar fire to exchange for something so easily? He is definitely not a simple
warrior,'

Edie thought to himself. 'I should have checked this man out.' Meanwhile, Ricky also thought to himself,

'The Transmission Array is definitely a big deal. In a Sage Level force, the decision of using it should
only be made by the top leading warriors. Just now, Edie had made such a quick promise to me without
consulting anyone else, so he must have a high position in the Wind-Mountain Alliance.'

In the auction hall, the spectators were finally able to put their focus back on the auction, just as the last
item was revealed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, next, we are going to show you fifty pieces of an incomplete map!" the warrior
in charge declared with a flourishing gesture toward the item.



"What? They have fifty pieces of an incomplete map!" The warriors around could not help but gasp in
surprise.

"Everyone, please settle down and listen first," the auctioneer continued. "The fifty copies of the
incomplete map are identical to each other. And two of the saints from the Wind-Mountain Alliance
have confirmed that they have the real Sage Level power. So, these incomplete maps must have been
left by a saint.

If you follow these maps, you will likely reach the saint's land of legacy.

Of course, luck is also an important factor. You might need incredible luck to find what you are looking
for."

"I see!" Some of the warriors who didn't recognize the map now nodded in understanding.

"Then, how are we going to bid for them?" some of the warriors asked.

"It's very simple. Each piece of the map costs twenty-five zones of cultivation resources," responded
the auctioneer. "If any of you think you are lucky enough, you can bid for it. I am sure you can all afford
twenty-five zones of cultivation resources, am I right?

Of course, you can also join hands to buy one!"

Ricky listened intently while still inside Edie's private room. He nodded at Edie approvingly and said,

"You did well copying the incomplete map into fifty pieces, and twenty-five zones of cultivation
resources for each piece seems like a good price as well. All together you will get more than one
thousand zones of cultivation resources if you sell all of them."

Then, Ricky looked curiously at him and asked, "By the way, why didn't you make more copies?"



"Fifty pieces will be just enough. If there are more, those warriors will think that it is not that valuable. If
there are less, we will not be able to earn many cultivation resources," Edie answered. "But this
incomplete map is definitely left by a saint."

"How many pieces of the incomplete map are yet to be found?" Ricky asked.

"There is still more than a half left..."

"More than half is missing? So that means this map is useless," Ricky said, shaking his head.

"Not necessarily. I have told them that it all depends on luck," replied Edie with a sly smirk. "How about
you? Do you want a piece of the map?"

"I have nothing on me now, and I don't have any more peculiar fire to exchange with you," answered
Ricky, shaking his head quickly.

"Don't worry. I will make sure that they will send a piece of the map to you for free," Edie said with a
warm smile.

"Ha-ha, thank you. To be honest, I also want to try and see if I am lucky enough to find something
following this incomplete map." Ricky smiled, while in his mind, he was already plotting what he would
do next.
