The legendary warrior novel Chapter 41

Suddenly!

The three black shadows of the sword loomed the sky in front of Ricky, dashing to his neck as it tried to give him a fatal blow.

This swift sword was encapsulated by a powerful sword-light, which further increased the sharpness of its edges.

All in all, this powerful strike given by Dustin frightened all the warriors in the Skin Refinement.

As part of the top ten outer disciples of the Snow Sect, Dustin was much stronger than Jim.

Nevertheless, Ricky had also become much stronger during the past few months. He returned his sword to its sheath on his back, because his lowly weapon at the inferior Mortal Level stood no chance against Dustin. If he so much as tried, it would be broken into two.

Instead, Ricky crossed his arms around his neck to protect himself from Dustin's attack.

"Go to the hell, boy!" Dustin viciously roared when he saw Ricky fend off his strongest hit using the mysterious body refinement cultivation method.

"Is he crazy? How could he resist physical combat with the cultivation method?" All the disciples around remarked, with disbelief and shock on their faces.

"Dustin was not like Wade. He was much stronger than him, and with the power of his sword-light he could be the strongest. I didn't think Ricky's arms could have survived that hit!" one of them said.

......

"Clang!"

The sound of metal colliding rang through the air. The three black shadows of the sword struck Ricky's arms brutally.

Surprisingly, it didn't cut off his arms at all, only leaving shallow bloody bruises. Then, the sword suddenly bounced back and changed its direction in mid-air, and hit the battlefield.

After having survived the three shadows, Ricky charged at Dustin, trying to land a series of punches, but each hit was blocked by Dustin's sword.

Both of them were flung back quite a distance on battlefield because of the energy blast from the collision of attacks from both sides.

The disciples again were stupefied at witnessing this impossibility. Ricky had effectively resisted Dustin's strongest hit with his body refinement cultivation method.

"What kind of cultivation method could it be?" Many disciples murmured, their eyes becoming sharp with greed.

"Is this the power of Nine-degree Body Refining Formula from thousand years ago?" The ninth Elder squinted and said to himself, "But it's only suitable for those who don't have a spiritual meridian! Otherwise, I really would have wanted to try it."

......

"How could you? How could you have possibly withstood my blow with only your body!?" Dustin roared, when he saw there was no seriously harm on Ricky's arms.

Now, Dustin finally realized that Ricky's cultivation method had not been easy at all.

"Nothing is impossible; the moment you stepped onto the battlefield, your destiny was already doomed!" Ricky said expressionlessly, the spiritual energy surrounding his red fists sparking, flaming and ready to attack.

He wanted to make it quick, because he had felt the power of Dustin's sword-light. It was fearfully mighty.

Although Dustin's attack only left small scars on his aims, the power of the sword-light that came into his body could not be expelled as quickly as he wanted, and was constantly distressing his refined body.

If he couldn't overpower Dustin, he was afraid the state of his refined body would not hold up under the extreme force.

So, he had to end this battle as soon as possible.

"Die today!" Ricky roared, raising his fists in the air as he rushed towards to Dustin.

Dustin, an experienced warrior and one of the top ten outer disciples, quickly recovered his emotions. He narrowed his eyes and prepared to battle Ricky once more.

In a flash, both of them wrestled together again.

But in this time, it was Ricky who seemed to have an advantage.

He ignored Dustin's attack, instead punching with his fists with a fury. As for Dustin, he had to focus on blocking Ricky's tremendous punches.

After all, he knew that since he didn't have any body refinement cultivation method to protect himself, if he didn't hold out from Ricky's hit, he would likely be conquered.

Finally, after thirty punches, Ricky was hit by a solid blow.

Dustin was hit in the chest and a blood sprayed out of his mouth, which prompted him to retreat greatly and distributed the rhythm of his defense.

Therefore, in the next few minutes, he was hit by Ricky numerous times.

Finally, when he was hit for the fourth time, he couldn't stand it any longer and fell on the ground heavily, as if he had no power to fight back.

After seeing this, the disciples around were shocked into silence. For several moments, nobody spoke. It was to everyone's surprise that Dustin had been so brutally conquered in this battle.

Meanwhile, Ricky halted once when he was sure Dustin would no longer fight back, because he was also injured.

It was very clear that there were no less than twenty small sword scars on his body, which meant that more than twenty sword-lights had penetrated into his body, damaging his refined body's state.

Dustin stood up, in great pain, and looked at Ricky. "All the cultivation methods have a common fatal disadvantage, which is the fact that it is impossible to withstand for a long time," he said ferociously. "With the attack of my sword-light, the state of your refined body will soon disappear."

Unexpectedly, the red color which surrounded Ricky had begun to dim as soon as he finished talking, and quickly Ricky returned to his original shape. The presence of the refined body disappeared.

However, Ricky still could use his cultivation method once again, but it would inevitably consume his blood vitality in his body and overdraft his physical body, which would seriously affect his skills and health in the long run.

"Hmph! Even if my refined body has been damaged, it's still a small and easy task to beat you now!" Ricky said evenly, not a trace of panic on his solemn face.

He knew Dustin had no fighting power left. Meanwhile, Ricky still had most of his fighting power, and could end Dustin's life very quickly.

"Ha-ha, you will never defeat me!" Dustin replied, defiant and furious.

Ricky and the warriors around sensed that something was up his sleeve, and something was about to go wrong.

Suddenly, Dustin took out a pill with the color of blood, swallowing it hastily.

"Boom!"

Dustin was suddenly brimming with energy, the renewed power bursting out and rising to the sky. Suddenly, a bloodstain appeared on his body. It was the symbol of a warrior of Blood Purification.

He had returned to his optimal power, by simply ingesting this small pill.

"It looks like Energy Boosting Pill!" Some inner disciples said, "Right, it must the Energy Boosting Pill; otherwise, he couldn't have recovered his full strength in such a short time!"

"But the Energy Boosting Pill has been coveted by our inner disciples for so long! How could Dustin have one!"

"Even if the effect of the Energy Boosting Pill last only an hour, it's more than enough for Dustin to wound Ricky dozens of times! The battle's outcome has fated now!"

"Yes! The battle's fate is set in stone!" many disciples said lowly, overcome with emotion.

......

Ricky now adopted an expression of bitter graveness, as he felt the power of Dustin.

"The Energy Boosting Pill! It is impossible! How could you have such a thing?" Ricky said, shocked to the core.

"Ha-ha, are you scared of me now?" Dustin laughed ferociously. "It's no use being afraid, because you will soon be with my dead brother!"

Meanwhile, Dustin began to slowly move towards Ricky.

At this moment, Ricky thought that he truly fell into the utter desperation. Would this be how he was slain?
