Chapter 1190 Talents Gathering

"I didn't expect that I would end up having to kill myself," Grady said bitterly upon hearing Ricky's
words. "I should have seen this coming."

"That's right. You deserve this," Ricky responded calmly.

"But don't celebrate yet, because, soon, you will end up just like me," Grady said threateningly, his eyes
flashing cold and grey.

"Oh? Is that so?" A faint smile pulled at the corners of Ricky's lips as if Grady's words had amused him.

"My brother, Lundy, will avenge me!" Grady looked excessively confident as he declared this, but Ricky
didn't look any less amused.

"Your brother will never know what happened between us. And even if he manages to find out, I will
send him to his creator so that you two can reunite," Ricky retorted, flashing Grady a taunting smile.

"Will you?" Grady responded with a sneer.

"You'll find out soon enough. Take your life now!" Ricky said.

Grady was not a coward. Knowing that Ricky would not let him live, he destroyed his soul to end his
life.

Once he was dead, he turned into his beast form—a Red Potentate Roc. Ricky absorbed his beast
form into the Devourer Zone, which provided nourishment for his Blood Vitality Devouring Skill.

As soon as Grady took his last breath, Flint's last hope shattered into pieces. Tears poured down his
cheeks, as he fell to his knees on the muddy swamp ground.

He turned to Edie with a pitiful look and cried,



"Edie, Winifred, we grew up together. Let me go this time for old time's sake. I swear I won't do it again.

And besides, we are all members of the Wind-Mountain Alliance, and we are related by blood. If I die,
how will you explain it to our seniors?"

Flint begged desperately for his life, and Ricky could see that although Winifred was scowling at Flint,
Edie seemed to be hesitating.

"Humph! When you turned your back on us and sold Edie's secret to our enemies, did you think that we
are still your family? Did you feel sorry?" Winifred snorted coldly.

"Look at this pathetic guy, Ricky!

He is trying to use their soft spot to get his way. If it goes on like this, I bet Edie and Winifred would not
have the heart to hurt him," the Dragon Intent Grass remarked with much annoyance.

"I know. Anyway, I never planned to let Winifred and Edie lay a hand on him since they are still
connected by blood. I don't want to hurt them," Ricky replied at once. "But I can't let Flint live.
Otherwise, he will cause me more trouble," he continued with a frown.

'If worse comes to worst, I will just head for the Middle Land after I kill him,' he thought to himself
without speaking it out.

Without saying another word, Ricky strode forward and reached a hand out toward Flint, his arm
transforming into a sharp blade. Before Edie, Winifred, or even Flint realized what he planned to do,
Ricky stabbed Flint with his arm, killing him. He instantly turned into his beast form—the Wind Benu.

Of course, Edie's initial reaction was to get angry. After all, Ricky killed Flint without asking for his
permission. He cast a sharp glare at him and huffed, "Ricky, how could you—"

Winifred also looked slightly upset.



"I couldn't let him live, and you know why," Ricky said calmly.

"If you are not okay with that, we can go our separate ways. As for whether or not to take revenge, it's
up to you," he added further.

Edie and Winifred felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured on their heads when they heard
Ricky's words. It was like a cold balm to their upset hearts, and it urged them to keep their silence.

In fact, the two of them were not angry about what Ricky had done to Flint. They both knew that Flint
deserved to die, and if they were in Ricky's shoes, they would not spare Flint's life either.

At this point, they could only feel sorry for Flint.

"Perhaps, the two of us owe you our thanks for that," Edie said after a long, mournful silence.

"Don't say that. After all, I just killed a member of the Wind-Mountain Alliance. But, I hope you would
not blame me for that. And you should also think about how you will explain Flint's death to your
superiors!" Ricky responded.

After that, Ricky, Edie, and Winifred continued looking for the ruins and visible swamps.

They had already decided to fight for the Blood Beast King, but the marsh mud they had acquired was
not enough to replenish the energy they would have to spend.

After all, the strong gravitational pull of the Giant Visible Swamp was very strong.

That meant they had to collect more marsh mud to succeed.

Time flew by quickly, and they luckily found more visible swamps. However, they couldn't find a single
ruin.

Fortunately, they had obtained ten blood beasts so they wouldn't return empty-handed.



Around twenty days later, a dramatic change had taken place in the whole Emperor Beast Swamp. All
the visible swamps had sunk and disappeared.

Strong blood vitality rose into the sky from the center of the Emperor Beast Swamp.

"The Giant Visible Swamp has appeared, and next would be the Blood Beast King!" Edie said excitedly.

'How much could this Blood Beast King increase my odds of becoming the saint?' Ricky wondered
expectantly to himself.

With the help of the grand humanoid tree, he expected that his way to becoming a saint would be very
smooth. But he didn't have the Heavenly Meridian. Hence, he had to take advantage of anything that
could help him achieve his goal.

"Let's go!" Ricky said.

Then, the three of them headed to the Giant Visible Swamp.

At the same time, all the geniuses in the Emperor Beast Swamp rushed toward the Giant Visible
Swamp too. They were aware that they would have to fight many difficult opponents over the Blood
Beast King, and they might even run into other dangers. Despite that, they couldn't give up the
opportunity to obtain the Blood Beast King.

The Giant Visible Swamp was embedded in the center of the Emperor Beast Swamp like a black-red
vortex.

And waves of strong blood vitality continuously poured out from it.

There was a certain kind of power in the blood vitality, which was infinitely stronger than the Emperor
Level power. It was the blessing power that only an innate spiritual sage could possess.



Many figures landed on the ground simultaneously, looking excitedly at the Giant Visible Swamp in
front of them. They couldn't wait to just rush in immediately.

However, they had to wait for the Blessing Blood Tower to emerge from the center of the Giant Visible
Swamp before they could set foot in it. They needed to enter the Blessing Blood Tower first and fight
each other over the Blood Beast King.

If they broke into the Giant Visible Swamp now, they would be crushed to pieces by the blessing power
in the swamp.

It was the real blessing power, and there was no way that lower spiritual emperors like them could
survive it.

More and more people showed up.

And before long, the most competitive three geniuses arrived. They were Lundy, Ashley, and Raylan.

Lundy was a handsome young man who was clad in a scarlet robe. There was a golden mutant mark in
between his eyebrows, which made him stand out among the crowd.

Behind him was a horde of warriors, all of whom looked prideful and aggressive.

As soon as Lundy appeared, the geniuses in front of him parted in the middle, making way for him
automatically.

At the same time, Sumner, Mona, and Lionel came out from another direction, and with them was a
woman clothed in green, flowing dress and a hazy veil. It was none other than Ashley.

From another direction came a good-looking young man with fair skin and a folding hand on his long,
delicate-looking fingers. He was quite a charming gentleman. Behind him followed a group of warriors,
looking ready to cater to his needs. It was none other than Raylan.



Of course, Edie was more captivating than him, and Edie's features leaned more toward the feminine
side.

The warriors present fixed their eyes on Raylan and Ashley while talking about them, but most of them
paid more attention to Ashley. After all, she was a gorgeous woman and powerful to boot.

They didn't talk about Lundy because they already knew a lot about him. They didn't think there was
any need to talk about him.

Soon, Ricky, Edie, and Winifred arrived. They, too, drew the attention of many warriors. After all, rumor
had it that Ricky could challenge someone whose level was higher than him at the Emperor
Level.
