Chapter 670 Dark Nether Ind
"I won''t be able to kill Pearl because the spiritual emperor of the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce
must have given her some life-saving treasure, just like Doris had left her spiritual hologram in the
airship," Ricky revealed.
"You think a lot, but you are absolutely right," Tina nodded, grasping what Ricky had just said.
"If that''s what you think, then I will ept the Massacring Sand," Pearl answered. She no longer
insisted on refusing to ept Ricky''s n, and took away the other half of the Massacring Sand.
"That''s wonderful!" Ricky nodded with a satisfied smile.
Back then, Ricky had already separated a part of the Massacring Sand that was stored in the
Massacring Zone and went on to refine it.
Of course, his refining process was very slow. After all, he was not yet specialized in that particr

skill.
That very moment, the Golden Light Array receded slowly. Ricky and Pearl returned to the Heavenly
Passage again.
"Henry has already said that there are three tests, and we just passed the first one. In other words,
there are still two more waiting for us. The so-called Massacring Antenna should be in the final test,"
Ricky said.
"We don''t know how difficult this second test will be, especially inparison with the Golden Light
Array," Pearl murmured.
"It will definitely be more difficult," Ricky stated. He had already been expecting tougher and more
difficult tests lying ahead of them.
The two of them walked side by side once more towards the depths of the Heavenly Passage.
About half an hour or so had passed, and the passage morphed into a portal. They soon found
themselves being surrounded by the force of some array. What followed was the two were transported
into a gloomy ind made up of mostly rocks.
The color of the ind was gloomy and gray. It was almost the size of a small city.
The area surrounding the ind waspletely dark. It was extremely notable how the full-bodied dark
power gathered from all corners of thend and spread towards the ind.
Moreover, the periphery of the ind seemed to be shrinking. That was to say, the ind was getting
smaller by the second. Judging by the rate at which it continuously diminished in size, it might only take
about ten hours before the gray ind disappearedpletely.
Once the ind disappeared, he and Pearl would sink into the endless depths of the dark power
around them.
From Ricky''s perspective, the endless dark power only gave him the impression of death and danger.
"What is the test this time?" Ricky muttered.
Simr to what took ce in the Golden Light Array, two messages appeared in the void and entered
the minds of Ricky and Pearl.
"This ce is called the Dark Nether Ind, a ce surrounded by the Dark Sea. If you get caught in
it, you will vanish in an instant. Here, strength is paramount above everything else!" Ricky and Pearl
read the message together, loud and clear.
"The Dark Nether Ind? I estimate that this is to test our real power. We need toplete and pass
the test before the ind disappears!" Ricky attempted to gauge the current test that they were about
to face.
"The dark power here is quite suitable for me to cultivate." Pearl''s train of thought, on the other hand,
was on a slightly different page than Ricky''s.
"I forgot that you have the Feminine Mutant. While we''re on this ind, your strength will surely
increase tenfold. You don''t have ns of hitting me with a sneak attack, do you?" Ricky said half-
jokingly as the words uttered by Pearl registered in his ears.
Pearl simply ignored herpanion''s light jest. Since the main objective was to work with him closely
in order to ovee this difficulty, Pearl thought it was better to avoid any unnecessary dialogue with
Ricky.
Seeing that Pearl waspletely ignoring him, Ricky shook his head slightly in dismay. He had no
choice but to concentrate on the uing challenges, instead.
Howl! Howl!
There were low and shrill roars that echoed from deep within the ind.
The dark power that surged menacingly around the ind began to change. It transformed into
countless concrete devils. The devils seemed to being from all directions. Altogether, the devils
came dashing towards Ricky and Pearl. Their momentum was unwavering.
"Let''s just call them the Dark Nether Beasts, since they are condensed through the power of the Dark
Nether Enlightenment," Pearl said in a light tone. Her eyes were dead set on the approaching mass of
condensed devils.
"If my guess is right, we should kill these beasts before the ind disappears. The total number of
these Dark Nether Beasts is ny-nine, yet I''m not sensing any strong powering from their
"Perhaps more powerful Dark Nether Beasts will appearter!" Pearl eximed.
The two then stopped their chit-chatting, as they each broke out their powerful momentum and fought
with the ny-nine Dark Nether Beasts. After all, they didn''t have that much time, so they had to
The strength of the beasts that they were currently facing had already reached the peak level of a
middle spiritual king. However, they were still inferior in strengthpared with Ricky''s and Pearl''s
power. The difference in their strength only made the ongoing fight seemed more like a massacre.
After being killed, the Dark Nether Beasts transformed into a mass of darkher energy and gathered
in mid-air.
Ricky and Pearl instantly noticed what had happened, although they were not taken by surprise. They
already knew and expected that the second test could never be simple and easy.
"Perhaps the mass of condensed darkher energy in mid-air is our real opponent," Ricky said as his
face was painted with a stern expression.
In the blink of an eye, he sted a fierce scorching me fist against the darkher energy. After all,
the me was naturally the best choice to deal with such energy.
However, after the me fist crashed against the darkher energy, it was only absorbed mercilessly
by the energy, leaving it unscathed.
"It seems that our attack will not be effective against this mass of Dark Nether Enlightenment...not
unless we kill all the ny-nine Dark Nether Beasts," Pearl deduced, forefinger and thumb coiling her
chin.
"It will only cause us trouble if we kill these beasts. Yet we have no other choice and we still have to kill
them. This is such a contradicting situation that we''re in," Ricky said, not bothering to conceal the
helpless tone in his voice. He let out a sigh and then smirked.
Half an hourter, Ricky and Pearl had already killed all the beasts, and the smoke that was the Dark
Nether Enlightenment reached the size of thirty feet.
Immediately, Ricky''s and Pearl''s eyes were fixed on the dissipating air that served as the remnants of
the Dark Nether Enlightenment. They knew that the real test woulde next.
Howl! Howl!
That moment, the strong roar rang around the entire ind. The remaining cloud of smoke began to
change. It only took seconds before it shape-shifted into a Dark Nether Beast with the height of fifty
feet.
In addition, the Dark Nether Beast had two heads and looked extremely ferocious. It also had four dark
and thick arms.
The roar it emitted was so extremely deep and loud that it seemed to shake both heaven and earth. It
made the whole Dark Nether Ind shudder with fear.
Almost involuntarily, Pearl''s and Ricky''s faces darkened with tension. They were expecting the worst,
but this was far beyond what they had anticipated. They sensed an indomitable power that was more
serious than the Golden Light Array.
"This Dark Nether Beast is very powerful. Maybe ourbined forces will not be enough to defeat it,"
Ricky murmured solemnly.
Boom! Boom! Not having anything else to say, Ricky then let the mes soar and turn into armor to
wrap his whole body. The seven magnificent mes also surrounded him.
Pearl also activated the Feminine Mutant, transforming herself into the form of a dark queen.
"We will strike at this Dark Nether Beast from the front and the back!" Pearl eximed, having carefully
assessed their chances against the beast. "Then, I will use the Feminine Mutant to feel and find the
weakness of this huge beast."
"Oh?" Ricky grinned. He thought that he really must give it to Pearl for being so brave, unfazed and
sharp even in the face of impending danger. "I haven''t expected that your Feminine Mutant would have
such an intellectual effect on you. If you''ve made up your mind, then I have no choice but to support
you."
"Ricky, it seems that Pearl wants to earn your awe and respect once again," Tina smiled slightly.
"This isn''t news, though, Tina. I mean, how can a proud person like Pearl allow herself to be rescued
by others?" Ricky said with a shrug. Pearl really was just being herself. There was nothing outstanding
or weird about her proposal and her willingness to take charge of the situation they were in.
