Chapter 699 Golden Pattern Skill
"It seems that you''ve absorbed a lot of experience from our martial arts. Although this experience might
seem useless to you right now, I''m sure it will be of great benefit to you in the future. It will y an
important role in the improvement of your cultivation," the golden shadow stated calmly as he appeared
before Ricky.
"So we''re moving onto the next cultivation method—the Golden Pattern Skill."
His voice faded away. Without leaving a moment for silence, he immediately pped his hands and an
energetic force erupted from them. The source of massacre started to augment within a second. Mighty
rays of golden lightning shed in the sky before flying into Ricky''s mind.
Information entered his mind.
"The Golden Pattern Skill is the cultivation method inherited by those in the Massacring Holy Ant tribe.
It is also a cultivation method at the inferior stage of Heaven Level,"
Ricky murmured. A vision of text seemed to appear before him and he read them aloud as they came.
"What? It''s a cultivation method of the Heaven Level!" He couldn''t help the gasp that escaped him as
he understood the meaning of those words.
The Heaven Level was the highest level a cultivation method could reach in the Misty South. Except for
the Chaos Manual, the Gxy Saber Skill, a cultivation method at the inferior stage of Earth Level, was
the strongest skill in his roster.
Thus, he was dumbfounded upon learning that he was about to acquire a cultivation method at the
inferior stage of Heaven Level.
"Since we are a holy tribe, it''s natural that our inheritable cultivation method has achieved the Heaven
Level." There was another pause. The golden shadow spoke in stilted words, slow and steady as if
conversation took effort. "In the following process, you''ll need all your concentration to learn methods to

refine the Golden Pattern Skill."
"Yes, sir." Ricky nodded inprehension as he tried to contain his excitement.
"The massacring power will turn into golden pattern when you concentrate on the refining process..."
Ricky murmured to himself as the cultivation method shed in his head.
The Golden Pattern Skill evolved from massacring power. Thetter umted inside the user''s
body until it could generate a powerful golden pattern. The resulting pattern could then take on different
forms and structures to attack enemy.
The greater the variety of golden patterns one could make, the more powerful one''s skill would be. So,
the utmost refinement of the golden patterns was crucial.
There was a tale once that said the man who couldplete the Golden Pattern Skill, would then
possess a thousand patterns. But when the patriarch of the Massacring Holy Ant tribe practiced this
skill, he only gathered a total of seven hundred patterns in his time. Considering this, it was beyond
imagination for one to possess one thousand golden patterns.
It took Ricky three days to fully learn about the Golden Pattern Skill.
"When the tribe was buried in the dust and dirt, their only hope was their unique cultivation method.
When their cultivation method gets handed down from generation to generation, their spirits willst
forever in the world of martial arts," the golden shadow said in a serious tone after Ricky finished the
refining process.
"Since you possess the Massacring Mutant, you have a big advantage over all other creatures when
learning massacring power. I hope that you will try your best and acquire one thousand golden patterns
in the future."
"Sir, I will try my best. Although this road might be long and fraught with danger, I will make sure the
Golden Pattern Skill shines in the world of martial arts one day, no matter the costs!" Ricky firmly
replied with a solemn expression on his face.
"That''s great. Now that you have grasped the Golden Pattern Skill, my mission isplete." He
hummed in contentment before he continued, "And I''ve got some good news. I''m d to hear that the
three juniors from the Predatory Holy Ant tribe have begun practicing their martial arts in the ancestral
Now I feel much better. I really hope I can atone for the sin of our tribe."
"Sir, the Massacring Holy Ant tribe did the right thing when they chose to fight the devils. They were
great people for whom I have the utmost admiration. Our younger generations will learn from their
brave deeds. The traitors were the ones with terrible sins, but they were just a minor part of your tribe.
They couldn''t represent the entire Massacring Holy Ant tribe," Ricky stated in a low voice. He looked
deeply into the golden shadow''s eyes, conveying his determination with a nce.
"Ha-ha. It has never urred to me that I could beforted by a junior." The golden shadow burst
into amicableughter upon hearing Ricky''s words.
"The moment you inherited the cultivation method, the ancestralnd of our tribe has been put under
your control. When you use your mind, thend will integrate into your body." Their eyes met as the
shadow continued his exnation.
"I have ced everything at your disposal and so, it''s time for me to go."
"Sir, I feel like the burden that''s been ced on my shoulders has risen considerably." A faint smile
lingered on Ricky''s face as he heard the other''s farewell.
"Since you are young and energetic, I''m sure that it''s not such a big deal to let you handle those
things." The shadow mimicked his smile. A bit of awkwardness energized the air surrounding them as
they waited for his departure.
"Are you going to vanish after your mission isplete?" Ricky asked with a small frown. His voice
took on a bitter note as he spoke.
"I''m just a soul left by the patriarch of the Massacring Holy Ant tribe. My mission is to pass down the
inheritable of the tribe. Since my mission waspleted, there is no reason for me to stay here." The
golden shadow paused for a moment and continued, "My death marks the end of an era. Only when
I''m gone, can the Massacring Holy Ant tribe from the ancient times be extinct from the world. And
a new generation of the Massacring Holy Ant will emerge in the ancestralnd again."
"Is that so?" Ricky gave a heavy sigh. There was a touch of sadness in his voice.
"There is one thing I want to ask you, sir," Ricky asked hurriedly, worried that hispanion might
disappear in the next second.
"What is it?" With a tilt of his head, the golden shadow asked for a rification.
"Where can I find the Massacring Soil?" There was a spark in Ricky''s eyes as he looked at the shadow
expectantly.
Ricky thought that he would be able to acquire the Massacring Soil in the ancestralnd of the
Massacring Holy Ant tribe. But to his surprise, he didn''t find even a trace of it. Since there was a link
between the Massacring Holy Ant tribe and the Massacring Soil, and the golden shadow was a
creature of the former, Ricky assumed that he would know something about thetter.
"Ha-ha. It seems that the Massacring Soil is hard to hunt for, but when you look around carefully, you
will be surprised to find that it is just within your reach." A hint ofughter could be heard from the
golden shadow''s cryptic answer.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Ricky scratched his head in confusion.
"Since the ancestralnd of our tribe is under your control now, the Massacring Soil hidden within it will
show itself as long as you give the order," the golden shadow replied with a grin.
As his voice faded away, he vanished off the face of the earth. Since his mission wasplete, it was
time for him to leave.
"Thank you so much, sir!" Ricky said, bowing respectfully in his direction. Sparkling dust particles
lingered in the air where he stood, disappearingpletely in the next moment.
Lost in thought, Ricky let his eyes roam thend that stretched before him. ording to the golden
shadow, the Massacring Soil was concealed somewhere here. That assurance served to strengthen
Ricky''s resolve to find the treasure no matter how difficult it would be. He felt that he was just one step
away from attaining the Massacring Soil.
Without wasting another moment, Ricky fused his mind and wishes to the ancestralnd. He could feel
the warmth of his blood as it flowed through his body in a steady stream. It then oozed from his
fingertips, hitting the ground in droplets.
As the dirt absorbed his blood, a tighter bond formed and connected his body with thend.
Suddenly, he felt the ancestralnd emit a strange aura. Its power caused tremors to reverberate in his
body, affecting even his Source of Golden Body as it throbbed in sync with his pulsations. The more
intense the aura was, the more violent his Source of Golden Body became.
''Did the strange powere from the Massacring Soil?'' Ricky quietly thought to himself as he
withstood the enormous pressure that bore down on his being.
Without hesitation, he immediately transferred the original energy of the ancestralnd. He set it aside
to summon the strange power that activated his Source of Golden Body. Before he could blink, a ball of
golden soil emerged in the sky.
Buzz! Buzz! The ball of golden soil spun above Ricky, emitting a noise like lightning in the sky. In the
next instant, the Source of Golden Body escaped his control and shot upwards to meet the ball.
"Is that the Massacring Soil? It surprising to find that it has such a strong attraction to my Source of
Golden Body," Ricky shouted with excitement.
He could also sense that the attraction was mutual.
The Source of Golden Body and the Massacring Soil swirled around each other. The innate energy of
the Massacring Soil poured continuously into his Source of Golden Body and strengthened his power.
"It seems that my Source of Golden Body and the Massacring Soil areplementary forces. They
were made for each other!" Ricky felt giddy with excitement as he witnessed such an amazing scene.
When he was innd of fortune of the Realm of Wildness, the Fortune Elder told him that he could
achieve the real Ultimate Golden Body only when he acquired the Massacring Soil.
When he possessed the Massacring Soil, his Ultimate Golden Body could be evolved into the Chaotic
Golden Body, an unbeatable and eternal skill in the world of martial arts.
