Chapter 974 Arrival At The Western Land

"Kenney, you'd better leave Hiram to me. You're no match for him yet. But since you're my son's friend, then you're also a friend of the Super Palace. With this, I vow that I won't allow Hiram to hurt you in any manner," Spike said to Ricky through telepathy upon recovering from shock.

"Don't worry about me, sir. Now that I have said that, I am confident that I can defeat him," Ricky replied. "After all, I came here with a striking and powerful warrior with me."

"A powerful warrior?" Spike was not quite sure of what Ricky was trying to say. As a result, he was taken aback by Ricky's words. At this moment, he seemed to understand why Soar and the others could have come out of the Shark Palace.

On the other hand, he was curious about the level of this powerful warrior that Ricky had just mentioned. If the said powerful warrior was a demi-spiritual emperor, then Spike would have sensed his or her presence already since all of Ricky's companions should be just around the corner at that moment.

'Could the strong warrior be a spiritual emperor? I wonder, ' Spike thought to himself as he was curious about this warrior's identity.

This was because only spiritual emperors' complete ruling power could be hidden from the demi-spiritual emperors' senses.

However, he could still not understand how Ricky could take a spirit emperor with him.

"You can't bite off more than you can chew. Seems like you are such in a hurry to go to hell. Let me help you with that. I can send you there as soon as we finish this," Hiram snorted grimly as he couldn't stand Ricky any more. In the blink of an eye, he activated a strong attack that swept towards Ricky.

Despite this crippling attack, Ricky did not take a single glance at him.

At that moment, the sea water and the void where Hiram was standing suddenly balled up, causing Hiram to shrink into a tiny particle and disappear.

Such a scene caused all of the people of the Super Palace dumbfounded. All they knew was that Hiram suddenly vanished into thin air the moment he was about to attack Ricky. On the other hand, Ricky and his companions remained composed because they very well knew who was behind Hiram's disappearance—the Evil Mandragora.

However, their hearts still sighed in dismay due to the huge gap between a spiritual emperor's strength and a demi-spiritual emperor's As a matter of fact, it was so speedy that it only took a millionth second for the former to defeat the latter.

It was natural for Spike, Bruce, and the others to feel puzzled.

'It must be a spiritual emperor! I didn't expect that Kenney would be protected by a spiritual emperor. What can we say? Hiram has been courting death. How dare he attempt to

in answered back.

After Ricky and the others left the sea area, luck seemed to be on their side, for they had not encountered any trouble along the way. Two months later, they managed to cross the sea area and arrive at another large continent—the Western Land.

In these two months, they all had made great progress. By using the Devouring Zone, Ricky had refined the three Flood Dragons' cadavers into blood essence. Afterwards, he distributed the blood essence among his companions.

During that period of time, Soar, Pearl, Hugh, and Amanda all became demi-spiritual emperors, all thanks to the blood essence of the Flood Dragons.

On the other hand, Ricky made a breakthrough and became a second-class completed spiritual king and strengthened his cultivation level. This was a great demonstration of the great effect of the blood essence from the Flood Dragons at the Emperor Level.

Nevertheless, Ricky was still unable to reach the level of lower-grade demi-spiritual emperor. Somehow, he found it too difficult to challenge who was at a higher level than him at the Demi-emperor Level.

In addition, his saber intent was enhanced greatly from being primary thirty percent to completed thirty percent due to the effect of the Dragon Intent Grass.

"Is this the Western Land?

Whew! I can't believe that we've finally arrived after almost three months' worth of travel," they all sighed with intense tiredness as soon as they landed on the continent.

Although they had always flown over the sea area, they all felt that the continent was more suitable for them. After all, this is where they felt more comfortable living on.

"Yes, it's familiar. I can already smell the breeze! This is, indeed, the Western Land," Hugh said with glee while looking at the marvelous plants around him.
