The legendary warrior novel Chapter 167

"Oh? Any last words?" The man in fire robe paused for a moment upon hearing Ricky's words. "Spit it out. Maybe I'll do it for you when I go out."

"No last words. I just wanted to check. You don't want to be revived in a new guise, do you?" Ricky probed.

"Why?" Asked the man, with his arms crossed, obviously interested in what Ricky was saying.

"Some elders told me that the Earth Fire Place has been here for a long time. In recent centuries, it would appear every thirty years, and yet many talented warriors still queued up to get in," said Ricky.

"If you actually did want to get out of here, then you would have done it earlier before. That being said, you actually have no other choice but to leave this place because you know that the Earth Fire Place is going to be destroyed!"

"Ha-ha, you are a smart one, I have to say!" the man said, bursting into laughter as he heard Ricky's explanation.

"You are right. Reviving in a new guise wasn't my purpose in the first place. I truly just wanted to stay alive. I've seen too many warriors struggling to live in the river of time.

As a soul of weapon, our strength fades when we're damaged. But I like being a soul of weapon because we could stay alive forever even if we don't cultivate ourselves. It's been boring though, I have to say. But as your saying goes, better a living dog than a dead lion."

"If you don't mean to revive in a new guise, why won't you just let me go? You are the soul of the pagoda. You must know a way to transform it, to make it smaller. Do it, so we could leave together. Isn't that a much better solution?" Ricky suggested, his tone full of hope.

"You wish!" said the man.

"There are two reasons why I will never agree to your proposition. For one, human warriors are far too dishonest. I will never believe a thing you say. You said we will be leaving together, but I know you're planning to subdue me with the help of your seniors once we get out of here

"That's not my plan. I swear!" Ricky said, clearly agitated.

"A human warrior's vow is the last thing I would believe!" exclaimed the man.

"Kid, don't waste your time. Even if I did believe you, I still wouldn't go for your plan because if you did take me out of here, I would have to obey you once we get outside, and that's not happening.

So save your breath. What's more, I am interested in your body now."

"So in other words, I'm never getting out of here alive!" Ricky said, despair filling up his voice.

"That's right. So stop trying and just die quietly!" the man said.

"All right. But I am not easy to kill, mind you!" said Ricky as he sat with his legs crossed.

Ricky now focused on using his mind to push his regained spiritual meridian, Devourer Zone and Chaotic Fire Zone.

Of the two, he relied more on Chaotic Fire Zone because the man was the soul of the pagoda, meaning he was brought together by fire.

And Chaotic Fire Zone was definitely a buster of any fire.

However, Ricky was not sure if Chaotic Fire Zone would actually help him.

"Ha-ha. I've never met a man so stupidly courageous. In all my years, this is the first time I've ever met a man who has the guts to threaten me!" The man laughed out loud as he heard Ricky. In an instant, he turned into fire and went into Ricky's head

and into his mind. In a flash, innumerable fire swept across Ricky's head, in an attempt to kill his mind.

But Chaotic Fire Zone was aroused again, just as Ricky had expected. The Heaven Melting Fire it released transformed into a cage-shaped ball and enveloped the fire of the man, trapping it.

Then the man's silhouette showed.

But this time a different silhouette showed up. A miserable man. He cried in agony as Heaven Melting Fire burned him.

"Ah! How the hell do you have Heaven Melting Fire in your body? You bastard!" The man hollered in fear as he cried out. It seemed that he was scared of Heaven Melting Fire.

"What did you just call me?" Ricky smugly asked, standing up slowly.

"Master! Master! Please! Let me out like a fart, master!" The man begged, his arrogance fading quickly as he cried out to Ricky for mercy.

"Master, please! Please stop the Heaven Melting Fire! Get it out of me, please! We will work something out, come on!"

"I wasn't going to stop, but since you called me master, I will let you off for the time being," Ricky said, pretending to be an old soul. Then he pushed his mind to stop Heaven Melting Fire.

With Chaotic Fire Skill, Ricky could now control the Heaven Melting Fire at will.

He let the man go for a reason. He thought that the pagoda must have had something to do with Heaven Melting Fire and Fire Dragon Egg because he noticed that in Chaotic Fire Zone, the Fire Dragon Egg had been trembling too often.

"Thank you very much! Thank you!" The man became beholden to Ricky as Ricky took Heaven Melting Fire off him.

"Do you still want to be revived in a new guise now?"

"No! Hell no!"

"Fine, let me ask you, how do you know about Heaven Melting Fire?" Ricky asked.

"Erm..." the man said, clearly reluctant to answer Ricky's question.

"You don't want to say it? Alright, then. I guess you want to try Heaven Melting Fire again!" said Ricky, sneering.

"I'll say it! I'll tell you!" The man gave in, clearly terrified of having Heaven Melting Fire in him again.

"I know about Heaven Melting Fire because... I am the soul of Heaven Melting Pagoda, the treasure of the Heaven Melting Dragon tribe."

"What? The treasure of Heaven Melting Dragon tribe!" Ricky exclaimed, shocked. But as he put more thought into it, the more it made sense. The Earth Fire Place was created by Heaven Melting Dragon. It only made sense that the treasure of Heaven Melting Dragon tribe was here.

"So, Heaven Melting Pagoda! What is its stage?" Ricky asked curiously as he calmed down.

"Spiritual weapons are weaker than sacred weapons, and sacred ones are weaker than supreme ones. I used to be on top of the supreme tools, but ever since I got damaged, I became as weak as a middle stage spiritual tool," explained Heaven Melting Pagoda.

"Oh my! He used to be that strong!" Ricky said, his voice cracking. After his astonishment faded, Ricky's thoughts wandered as he thought about Heaven Melting Pagoda being badly damaged.

Even so, Ricky was still rather pleased because now, Heaven Melting Pagoda had the power strong enough to rival any middle stage spiritual weapon.

Those were so rare that they could not be found even in the Earth Fire Land!

"Ha-ha, the visit to the Earth Fire Place was actually a really productive trip!" Ricky laughed in his mind as he thought of all the things he had gotten from the Earth Fire Place.

"I've told you everything. Now, can I ask you a question, Master?" The man asked cautiously, feeling Ricky's excitement.

"Go ahead!" said Ricky.

"Master, how come you have Heaven Melting Fire in your body?" the man asked, excited as he anticipated his master's answer.
