Chapter 43 The Rankings (2/2)

ust won a battle, Ricky wasn't thinking of these plots against him that were brewing up in the various factions in the land.

He had been concentrating on cultivating in solitude in order to heal himself.

He had finally expelled Dustin's sword-light out of his system upon taking the Spiritual Energy Nourishing Pill Grace had given him.

Ricky began to realize the true extent of the sword-light's power.

Jim's sword-light was much smaller than Dustin's.

'I should really try to cultivate the Light Apperception!' Ricky thought decisively.

Once he had healed his wounds, Ricky was in no haste to end his cultivation. He instead turned his mind on concentrating on the mysterious runes in the Blood Zone.

When he had been battling Dustin, these mysterious scarlet runes had suddenly and voluntarily connected to his mind. They had asked him to use their power. It meant that he was now even more fit to understand these runes more.

'There is definitely a connection between the runes and the Chaos Manual!' Ricky thought.

He closed his eyes, trying to connect to those mysterious runes deep in his mind.

This time, the runes didn't deflect his connection. They willingly and easily allowed him to connect to them.

All of a sudden, Ricky felt as though he could control with ease these mysterious runes and even the scarlet flames.

”Boom!”

Suddenly, these mysterious runes gathered together, and in a flash of light, integrated themselves into Ricky's mind.

Ricky saw what appeared to be a sea of blood, all around, undulated waves of red light.

'The Chaos Manual—Devouring Skill!'

These five words appeared out of nothingness in his mind.
