Chapter 1276 The Reward He Wanted

At that moment, Michael witnessed how Peter stood up for Ricky and Mordechai. As a result, he pulled
back his momentum almost instantly. "Easy there, Peter. I wasn't really going to harm them. I'm just
trying to check the strength of these two geniuses from the Five-element Sect," he remarked
sarcastically.

However, Michael was aware that Peter had the location of the other land of opportunity that they were
about to explore. Therefore, he knew better than to piss him off.

"Hey, Ricky! It really doesn't matter if Peter is on our side. We are still in danger because, after all, both
Michael and George are middle spiritual emperors. As far as I can see, the only reason why they
haven't made a move is that they still don't have the location of the land of opportunity. Once they have
it, we might be dead meat,"

Mordechai said to Ricky telepathically.

"Let's just play it by ear and see how it goes. We will stand a chance against George the minute we
leave this place," Ricky murmured. "We've come this far, and we can't give up now. And besides, I'm
sure there's a way out of here. We just have to look for it."

Meanwhile, Peter gave Michael a stern look.

"Good. I expect you to keep your word," Peter said coldly.

Soon after, Peter led the way, and the rest of them followed him.

After traveling for a day, the group had set foot at a very glum place. There, they felt the dwindling life
and death powers in the area. Seeing how things were going in the area, they could not help but feel
rather relieved because it meant that the erosive power was now getting weaker.

But at the same time, they felt another kind of suppressive force that was proliferating in the area.



As they walked around, they stumbled upon tall palaces at the center of the location. Unfortunately, due
to the erosion of different kinds of powers, only the worn-out walls were left standing.

"By the looks of it, this used to be a city," Mordechai remarked as he analyzed the ruins.

Not long after, they laid eyes on a much taller palace amidst the dilapidated buildings.

What caught their attention even more was its magnificence, as if it was newly-built.

"This must be the relic. Perhaps, that biggest palace remains intact for a reason. Maybe it is being
protected by the suppressive force that we are feeling right now.

When some of our members visited this place, they said that the suppressive force on it was very
powerful. But as it weakens day by day, I think there's only a little of it that remains," Peter introduced
briefly.

Upon hearing this, all of them rushed towards the tall palace without thinking twice. Upon careful
analysis, they found out that the suppressive force that was being emitted on the area was weaker than
the strength of a middle spiritual emperor.

Peter and Michael joined forces and attacked the suppressive force. In the blink of an eye, the
dangerous force vanished, causing a staggering force to gush out of it. This force immediately engulfed
them and transported them inside the palace.

When Ricky came back to his senses, he was a little bit disoriented to find himself inside the palace.

Unfortunately, he didn't see any sign of Mordechai and the others in the same room. Without a doubt,
he believed that the unknown force was the one responsible for taking them inside the palace.

Seeing that there was no one with him, Ricky tried to look for answers as he began to examine his
surroundings.



All of a sudden, the mist power emerged, forming an illusion that instantly shrouded him.

This power of the illusion was based on Ricky's real strength.

"It seems like the test has started. Maybe the powerful warrior who had left inheritance here cultivated
the mist power and the illusion power. Go and break a leg! But I still think that you'll find it very easy to
break the illusion,"

the Dragon Intent Grass cheered on.

As soon as it finished speaking, Ricky began to activate his Golden Spirit Eyes, making him see
through the illusion. Gathering every ounce of strength he had, he started to launch attacks towards its
weak spot. In a snap, the illusion was destroyed and vanished into thin air.

"Wow! You've got the Golden Spirit Eyes!" A surprised voice reverberated across the room the moment
Ricky broke the illusion.

Hearing this, Ricky was intrigued. Looking around the room, he said respectfully, "Nice to meet you, sir.
I'm Ricky Nan. And you are?"

"This place used to be the Sacred Illusionary Kingdom. As the queen's will, I'm here to select the
successor for our king and queen. In fact, it will be easier for you to cultivate the power of illusion due
to your possession of the Golden Spirit Eyes. And because of that, I believe that you are a good
candidate to be the king's successor. However, you would still need to follow the protocol."

The voice instilled the idea.

"I'm flattered to hear that, sir," Ricky said humbly while lowering his head a little bit.

Meanwhile, he muttered to himself in his heart, "As it turns out, we are in the so-called Sacred Illusory
Kingdom. Well, it looks like the king and the queen must have focused on cultivating the illusion power."



"Hey, this is a good opportunity for you! You can better cultivate the power of illusion if you get their
inheritance. In addition, you possess the Gale Zone. When that happens, the illusion power will be your
trump card,"

the Dragon Intent Grass remarked.

"So, did I pass the test?" Ricky asked courteously.

"Yes, you did! You passed the test. It doesn't matter if you used the Golden Spirit Eyes. You made it,
anyway," the voice replied. "As a reward for passing the first test, you will be granted with a pill at the
intermediate stage of Sage Level. What kind of pill do you want?"

"Excuse me? What did you just say? Are you saying that I will get a pill at the intermediate stage of
Sage Level?" Ricky clarified as his eyes almost popped out in surprise. To him, it felt like he had just
won the grand prize in the lottery.

He was in disbelief. In fact, he was quite baffled because he passed the test just by simply activating
the Golden Spirit Eyes.

"Don't be surprised. This is normal. Anyone who passes the test will get a pill at the intermediate stage
of Sage Level. So, come on and tell me which pill you want.

Of course, the pill you want would be subject to availability. But I'll do my best to give what you want,"
the voice said.

Without wasting any more time, Ricky began to think hard of the pill he wanted the most.

After giving it some thought, Ricky said directly, "I think I want a pill that could help warriors refine the
Treasures from Heaven and Earth quickly. Do you have one like that?"



"I beg your pardon? Are you sure about that?" Apparently, Ricky's words took the queen's will by great
surprise.

It was very uncommon for someone to ask for a pill of this function. In fact, almost all the warriors
would choose the pills which could help improve their strength, cultivation level, or talent, but not this
kind.

Frankly, the pills which could help warriors refine the Treasures from Heaven and Earth were deemed
to be useless even if they were at the Sage Level or the Divine Level.

Warriors would not get enough benefit from such pill except for the faster refinement speed.

Needless to say, warriors would not want such a reward for passing the test. Moreover, Ricky was the
first-ever warrior to actually ask of such a thing from the will of the queen.

But after a while, Ricky did not receive any response. As a result, Ricky thought that the voice's owner
didn't have what he desired. "You don't have that kind of pill, do you?" he asked.

"Of course I have. I can give it to you if that's what you want. I just cannot wrap my head around the
fact that you would waste such a good opportunity for a pill that doesn't do any good.

You should know that the pills which can help warriors refine Treasures from Heaven and Earth more
quickly are not as precious as you think. Plus, you are still very young! You are less than fifty years old.
However, you act as if you don't have enough time to refine the Treasures from Heaven and Earth," the
voice replied.

"Yes, I need it. I'm running out of time. You must have noticed that. You see, there are seven of us that
came here, and three of them are middle spiritual emperors. If I want to get my hands on the
inheritance in this place, then I will have to defeat them all. Therefore, I must try to improve my strength
in the quickest way possible,"



Ricky pleaded.

"I see. But if I'm not mistaken, you've just become a three-star lower spiritual emperor. Isn't that right?"
the voice inquired.
