Chapter 1178 The Real Purpose

"Really? What is the truth then?" Ricky asked with an arch lift of eyebrow.

'I knew he was hiding something,' he thought suspiciously meanwhile.

"All right, I admit it. Our Transmission Array is available at any time. I swear that this time I am telling
the truth," said Edie.

"I see. Well, if you didn't want me to use it, you could have just told me the truth. You didn't have to
make up a lie to deceive me. I don't think I would be shameless enough to insist on using it in such a
case," Ricky said in a low voice.

"You misunderstand me, Kenney. You should know that I lied to you only because I wanted you to stay
here for two more months. In that case, after one month staying here, you can go to a secret land with
me to look for some Treasures from Heaven and Earth," Edie revealed, earning a surprised chuckle
from Ricky.

"Ha-ha, you must be joking! Your Wind Mountain Alliance has two saints and countless spiritual
emperors. With your position, thousands of spiritual emperors will undoubtedly come to serve you as
soon as you announce your intention. On the other hand, I'm merely a lower spiritual emperor. Why
would you prefer to go with me?" Ricky protested.

Edie sighed when it looked like Ricky was still doubting him. He muttered, "It's so difficult to lie to a
smart genius!

To tell you the truth, the secret land I am going to this time is the Emperor Beast Swamp."

"The Emperor Beast Swamp? What is that?" Hearing Edie's words, Ricky was sure that he was finally
telling the truth. And his curiosity was also piqued.



"It is an ancient battlefield left in the endless mountain," Edie explained at once. "Many ruins and
heritages of emperor beasts of at the Sage Level can be found in it.

The ancestors of many emperor beasts in the endless mountain have left heritages all over the
Emperor Beast Swamp, and many of them are from our Wind Mountain Alliance.

The Emperor Beast Swamp only appears once every era, and when it appears, only some Sage Level
forces in the endless mountain can sense its presence. This is because only the blood essence of
saints can sense the remains and power of the ancestors."

"I see...So your purpose is to find the heritage of your ancestors in the Emperor Beast Swamp." Ricky
nodded as he finally understood what Edie wanted from him.

"Yes, you're right. Of course, the heritage of our ancestors is not my only target. I won't refuse it if I
have the chance to get the heritage of any other emperor beast," Edie added. "I believe that you won't
refuse to get the blood essence of any emperor beast, will you?"

"Ha-ha, of course, I won't!" Ricky burst into laughter.

As a matter of fact, the blood essence of any emperor beast could not compare with his Chaos blood
power, but he was hankering for the energy that such blood essence could give.

As for why Edie thought highly of Ricky, it was probably due to his strength and uniqueness. Ricky was
confident in himself in these aspects.

"I just hope that after everything is done, you can keep your promise and let me get to the Middle Land
through your array," Ricky said seriously.

"Ha-ha, don't worry. I swear that after our trip, I will let you use the Transmission Array to go to the
Middle Land, and I can even escort you there in person," Edie promised without hesitation. Hearing



Ricky's serious tone, he knew that he had already pissed him off this time.

And he didn't want to offend a genius like Ricky. At least, not more than he already had.

"You don't have to do it in person. Just let me use it, and we are quits," Ricky said, shaking his head.

"But before we enter the Emperor Beast Swamp, Kenney, I still have one more question to ask you,"
Edie suddenly said telepathically in the next moment.

"Go ahead!"

"What's your real name?" Edie asked. "I can assure you that I told you my real name, and I can swear
that. I can also admit that I have an indisputably high position in the Wind-Mountain Alliance, which is
better than most of our members.

I really want to make friends with you."

"Since you asked, you must have a clue about my true identity already. My name is Ricky, and I come
from the Eastern Land," Ricky replied by telepathy. He decided to tell the truth this time because he
thought that he could not hide it any longer.

"Just as I expected. You are really Ricky! You are an ace genius from the Eastern Land, and the one
and only incredible demi-spiritual emperor in the past several eras!" Although he had guessed it for
some time, Edie was still shocked when Ricky admitted it himself.

"I didn't expect that my name would have reached the endless mountain," Ricky hesitantly said.

"No, it hasn't. I only found out because some warriors of our alliance had once gone to the Eastern
Land, and they told me about you. When I heard about a warrior like you, I collected all the information
that I could get. As early as you killed Redmond and the Yellow Water Emperor, I guessed you might
be Ricky. Also, your white hair gave you away," Edie explained.



"I see!" Ricky nodded, satisfied by Edie's explanation.

"But I think your information will soon reach this part of the world, and your identity will be revealed as
well. However, by then, you should have already reached the Middle Land. Ha ha!"

"I hope so. Now I just want to go to the Middle Land as soon as possible," Ricky said.

With the Chaotic Sword Intent Herb and the tusk of the ancient mammoth in hand, the trip to the
endless mountain was already fruitful enough for him.

"Just set your heart at rest. You only have to wait for two more months," Edie reassured him again.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet a genius like Ricky. Besides, the Emperor Beast Swamp
was about to open. In such a case, he could not let Ricky leave.

Then, Edie arranged a cultivation site for Ricky and the two girls.

First of all, Ricky helped Amelia refine the Sage Level Aquatic Fruit. He believed that after refining this
fruit, Amelia would be qualified to incur the Thunderstroke Doom.

"Edie, do you really want to take him to the Emperor Beast Swamp?

Don't forget that there are many geniuses in our Wind-Mountain Alliance!" said the Thousand-hand
Emperor as soon as Ricky had left.

After all, Ricky did not belong to the Wind-Mountain Alliance, so the Thousand-hand Emperor didn't
want to share any opportunity they could get with Ricky.

"If I tell you my reasons behind it, you'll definitely agree with my decision," said Edie.



"What is it then? Do you know something more about that guy?" the Thousand-hand Emperor asked
curiously.

"Three months ago, our people came back from the Eastern Land with a piece of news about an
incredible demi-spiritual emperor..." Edie then told the story about Ricky.

"That guy used to be an incredible demi-spiritual emperor!" The Thousand-hand Emperor was
astonished after hearing Edie's explanation.

He could hardly believe his ears.

On the other hand, it took Ricky three days to help Amelia refine the Aquatic Fruit thoroughly.

And as a result, Amelia was now powerful enough to incur the Thunderstroke Doom.

In fact, Amelia had almost reached this level since they left the Complete Emperor Island. However,
she was not a freak like Ricky. She had to be well prepared for even one strike from the Thunderstroke
Doom.

"Amelia, after this Aquatic Fruit is refined, you can incur the Thunderstroke Doom at any time, right?"
Ricky asked.

"Yes, but I would rather wait until I completely digest the power I've gotten from the fruit," answered
Amelia. "I think it will likely be the time when you return here with Edie from the Emperor Beast
Swamp."

"Ricky, do you understand what Amelia means? She doesn't have the confidence to break through the
Thunderstroke Doom and become a spiritual emperor unless you're by her side," Tina said in a teasing
tone.



Hearing Tina's words, Amelia blushed fervently. Of course, the blush on her face embarrassed her
even more, and she wished that the ground could just open and swallow her up.

"Well, let's talk about something else. Amelia, take out your weapon. During my secluded cultivation, I
might cast weapons, and I can integrate that tusk into your weapon," Ricky said, awkwardly changing
the topic in a hurry.

Then, with Amelia's weapon, Ricky began to cultivate in seclusion.
