Chapter 1056 The Battle With Trump Cards
"That''s because he has to kill seven of his most valued people so he could cultivate the Ruthless Killing
Skill to the highest level," the Dragon Intent Grass said in a severe tone.
"What? Does he really have to kill seven of the closest people in his life?" Ricky could not help but
exim in disbelief.
To Ricky, even the most savage creatures would surely have something or somebody that they
treasured and adored so much. But after hearing what the Dragon Intent Grass had just said, he was
stunned to find out that he was wrong after all when it came to Gerald.
Even when presented with facts, Ricky was still in denial of how it was possible.
"Ricky, perhaps the so-called extreme power does not exist in the world. On the other hand, I think that
once a creature cultivates the Ruthless Killing Skill to the highest level, its power absolutely has already
reached the extreme," the Dragon Intent Grass stated.
"Every time it kills one of its closest creatures, its heart bes a little bit colder, and a drop of cruel
blood will start to emerge in its heart. This drop of ruthless blood is condensed from the blood of the
murdered creature. When it kills thest one, seven drops of ruthless blood will fuse with its heart,
which soon will form an actual brutal heart.
When this happens, the creature who did this will no longer know mercy, but only merciless killing
intent in its heart.
Given this, the ruthless killing intent will automatically lead it to cultivate its respective ruthless killing
skill, making it like a kind of inheritance. Needless to say, this ruthless killing intent is manipting this
creature."
"I mean, to cultivate the Ruthless Killing Skill at the expense of the lives of seven closest creatures? I
can''t believe someone would do that," Ricky said in an inaudible voice. "This skill is too powerful and
could lead to huge consequences once used in the wrong hands. Once such a creature grows stronger
and bes a powerful warrior, it will kill all the other creatures for the sake of its own killing intent."
"That''s true. However, let me tell you that no such creature has done this before, at least not yet," the
Dragon Intent Grass said. "You know how I am certain? That''s because I know for a fact that righteous
warriors like you will never let such a creature grow."
"In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with justice or evil itself. However, I will always choose to follow
my heart. Beyond anything, I will not allow such a creature to exist. Even if it has no animosity with me,
I will kill it and prevent all of humanity from suffering its wrath and greed," Ricky said indifferently.
Soon after, he stood up confidently and shot Gerald an angry look.
At that moment, nothing could ever make him feel better than seeing Gerald defeated and lifeless.
Buzz!
Suddenly, Ricky''s real body instantly grew and extended up to ten feet above the ground due to the
golden blood power that surged in his real body. At the same time, his five types of forms broke out,
and the chromatic energy encircled his body. Such an amazing feature of his skills and capabilities
made him look like the unbeatable god of war.
"It''s the chromatic energy! No wonder he was able to easily find the Space Node and the mysterious
object in the Sky-breaking Hall," the Dragon Intent Grass uttered in a deep voice.
At the same time, it became curious about the chromatic energy—what kind of power it held, what it
was, and what its rtion to the mysterious thing in the Sky-breaking Hall was.
It watched as it lost in its thoughts.
"Ultimate ruthless killing!"
Meanwhile, Gerald walked slowly as he condensed all his strength in his own hands. Soon after, he sat
down and plucked the strings of the Seven-string Zither. His Ruthless Killing Skill immediately evolved
into seven passages, forming seven colossal scarlet musical notes inside of them.
At that moment, those notes immediately transformed into the shape of heart that had seven beams of
blood-red light surging out of them. Afterwards the light came closer together and merged into a single
beam of light. It then formed into the shape of zither, which zoomed towards Ricky''s direction,
suppressing him.
With a loud crash, a significant amount of blood gushed out of Gerald''s body, causing him to take a few
steps back.
Without the shadow of a doubt, this striking power was no other than the power of the blood essence
ball.
And this was Gerald''s strongest ruthless attacks of all.
Meanwhile, Ricky fell into a trance upon seeing his opponent''s attack. At that moment, he was engulfed
into the world of killing created thanks to Gerald''s performance despite Ricky having the Golden Spirit
Eyes.
"Now, that''s one vile killing skill!" Ricky couldn''t help but exim in awe once again.
On the other hand, the Iron Justice Saber gleamed brightly and becamerger in an instant as Ricky''s
Ultimate Golden Body grasped it tightly. With the help of the chaotic power, the chromatic energy, the
justice power, and the five forms, Ricky was able to condense all of his power on this saber.
"Gerald, maybe you won''t understand my words, but believe me when I say that I am not killing you for
my satisfaction. This is for the innocent creatures and the rtives that you have killed out of your
greed for power," Ricky dered.
"Perhaps to you, I am being nosy, or maybe even quite ridiculous. But all I know is that I want to keep
my conscience. That''s all."
"sh!"
Ricky roared in anger, and his saber swung and collided with Gerald''s powerful attack.
Boom!
After crashing into each other, both of them decided to integrate their bodies into their moves. Once
sessful, the collision between the two attacks would determine the winner of the bout. There was no
turning back at this point, for they had gambled and risked their lives to put an end into this fight.
At that moment, both of them were in a deadlock as Gerald''s brutal strike tried to annihte all of
Ricky''s power.
However, Ricky''s power was the strongest chaotic power, aside from the primitive power. At this
moment, he was no weaker than Gerald with the help of the chromatic energy and the golden blood
power.
As a result, after a short standstill, Gerald''s ruthless attack suddenly fell apart.
Simultaneously, Ricky''s real body gripped the saber''s handle. Giving his all, he pierced through the
Seven-string Zither and prated into Gerald''s body.
When Rickynded on the ground, the Seven-string Zither was destroyed in an instant, turning into
smithereens.
Bruised and hurt from the attack, Gerald spat a mouthful of blood. In seconds, his body detonated with
strong killing power.
Soon after, seven drops of ck blood shot out from his heart, which dripped on the ground.
"Those are the seven drops of ruthless blood!" the Dragon Intent Grass eximed.
"No doubt about that. What you see in front of you is formed by collecting all the blood from Gerald''s
victims. Just as the name suggests, this killing skill is so ruthless that these drops of blood even came
from seven of his close rtives," Ricky uttered.
Meanwhile, he activated the Heaven Illuminating Fire and used it to set the seven drops of ruthless
blood aze.
On the other hand, as Gerald suffered on the ground, he lost both his ruthless power and heart. With
his Ruthless Killing Skill destroyed, he and his body slowly returned to its normal state.
Now that he was back to the way he originally was, the only aura that he exuded was that of an
ordinary warrior.
"It looks like Gerald didn''t really cultivate the Ruthless Killing Skill at the start of his cultivation!" Ricky

said in a weak voice. "Is it possible that he inherited the Ruthless Killing Skill?"
"Well, I guess that could be the only exnation," the Dragon Intent Grass answered.
"I think he''s still breathing. Do you want to finish him off?" it then vaguely suggested.
Hearing this made Ricky confused. He might not be that merciful, but all he knew was that he wanted
to let Gerald go at that moment.
''Do I really want to spare him? Is it really worth it?'' Ricky asked himself.
"Father, Mother, and all of those that t I have killed, please forgive me. I''m truly sorry," Gerald pleased
right after he lost the Ruthless Killing Skill.
At that moment, tears started to roll down his cheeks. Shedding tears was already foreign to him, for he
could not remember thest time he cried.
"Did he regain his humanity after his Ruthless Killing Skill was destroyed?" the Dragon Intent Grass
asked in shock.
"Perhaps, I should give him a chance," Ricky muttered under his breath.
Despite Ricky''s mercy, Gerald could not find it in his heart to forgive himself.
