The legendary warrior Chapter 179 War Of Rise

The next day, the square was crowded again. Almost every disciple and Elder in the Snow Sect were
present.

Zenith and Boris ought to be among them, observing secretly. Nobody knew their exact location.

At that moment, no sound could be heard. Everyone had their eyes set on the arena. Two opponents'
strength was unfathomable so disciples stopped discussing and just opted to wait for the outcome.

More moments of silence passed by.

On the arena, Ricky and Gennadi looked at each other from a distance, and their powers had already
clashed in the air.

"Why? Why is it only you? Where is Wyn? I want to challenge the both of you today!" Ricky said, his
voice full of disdain.

"I can take you down alone!" Gennadi stated confidently.

"Is that so? I'm giving you the last chance to consider whether you want to fight alone or not. Once the
battle starts, nobody will be allowed to join you and you might regret that," Ricky exclaimed with a grin.

"Is there anything wrong with your ears? I have already told you that I can take you up all by myself!"
Gennadi retorted back.

Bang! Without any kind of warning, Gennadi's power went up, at the same time, his feet trampling
violently on the ground. With the force of his power, dust flew up and Gennadi had already come to
Ricky. Then, he jumped really high. The flaming spiritual energy around his legs slashed towards Ricky.

The wise ones must have noticed that even though Gennadi's spiritual energy was impenetrable, his
real power was concealed in his body.



'It is the collision of bodily force. He must have heard about my devouring power from Hector, ' Ricky
analyzed, having figured out the true nature of Gennadi's power source.

'In this case, I'd better counter attack with my bodily power, too!' Ricky decided.

Soaring at a really fast speed, Ricky punched heavily into Gennadi's feet. When the airwaves
dispersed like a ripple, they turned around, reuniting into aggression once more.

"Fire Forging Body!" Gennadi shouted furiously. In a second, strong flaming spiritual energy was
emitted from him.

However, it went back to his body very soon. And as a result, it brought great changes to Gennadi.

His body turned to scarlet at a blow, and four flame signets appeared simultaneously on his palms.

"This is the body refining cultivation method of the inferior stage of Black Level, Fire Forging Body!" a
disciple from the audience spotted it right away.

"That's right. But it's a privilege reserved for the body refining warriors. How come Gennadi was able to
cultivate it? He even has reached the fourth level, only three levels away from the highest one, the
seventh level!" another disciple questioned.

"Hmm! Don't you know? As a casting master, Gennadi has the experience of forging body as well as
the knowledge in casting weapon, so Fire Forging Body suits him the best," some disciples of Casting
Faction responded, obviously annoyed with what they had been hearing so far.

Meanwhile, on the arena, Ricky and Gennadi were in a conversation as well.

"You do so well in body refining as a casting master. To tell you the truth, this is really surprising to me,"
Ricky stated.



"I'll have to give it to you as well. You can still reach so high though without a complete spiritual
meridian. It's so impressive," Gennadi replied. While everyone could get the irony behind his words.

Ricky just grinned. At the same time, he broke out his power to generate the Fourth Degree of Nine-
Degree Body Refining Formula.

Since Gennadi had applied the bodily power, Ricky couldn't use the power of Devouring Fire. However,
even from the beginning, Ricky wasn't planning on using it. For one, he wanted to see what Gennadi
could do, and he also wanted to know where his limit of body refining lay.

Swish! Swish!

In a second, all that the audience could see were a scarlet and a green figure flickering all over the
huge arena. However, the drastic impact of the sounds they made never ended.

Their powers intertwined, dispersing around like ripples which seemed to destroy the whole arena.

"Quintuple Fire Forging Body—Quintuple Fire Punch!"

Taken aback by the force of vibration again, Gennadi cried out loud, reuniting all of his powers and
delivering a strong punch.

With it, shadows of five flames appeared around Gennadi's fists and five flame signets on his palms.

"Gennadi has cultivated Fire Forging Body to the fifth level!" one disciple from the audience was
astonished.

"That's right. This alone proved that Gennadi has surpassed Wyn on body refining! He deserves to be
the top-ranked inner disciple!" another disciple exclaimed.

Back in the arena, there was no way that Ricky would allow to be outdone.



"The Fourth Degree of Nine-Degree of Body Refining Formula—Tiger Flame Punch!"

Ricky cried out loud. In a flash, he combined the Nine-Degree of Body Refining Formula with the
cultivation method of Five Beasts Arts, a flame fist shooting.

Even though Gennadi's Fire Forging Body went further, Ricky insisted on using the Fourth Degree of
Nine-Degree of Body Refining Formula instead of the fifth one or the sixth one, because he was
convinced that it could handle Gennadi's bodily power.

Pow!

Their fists clashed, two flames soaring to explode as the temperature around the arena increased
abruptly.

The two of them staggered back again. In the end, they had a draw this time.

Finally, Gennadi's expression became dignified.

After the confrontation, Gennadi had realized that Ricky could rival him even without the so-called
devouring power.

"How could it be possible? Without the uncanny devouring power, he could still match Gennadi in
strength!" Hector said incredulously.

He firmly believed that his failure was brought about by Ricky's devouring power. Otherwise, it would
have been Ricky who fell off the arena yesterday.

But now, he must admit that Ricky was stronger than him. Although, he was still reluctant to do so.

"Ricky is such a scourge!" Wyn said coldly.



He knew very well that Gennadi's bodily power had almost reached its limitation, but Ricky could resist
it with ease. Thus, Ricky's body refining was also superior to his.

"Elder Logan once said that Ricky's body refining cultivation method is only fit for the warriors without
spiritual meridian. Is that true?" Wyn asked, confusion being apparent in his voice.

"Wyn, let's take a closer look so that we can know the truth," Hector whispered to Wyn.

In the arena, Ricky and Gennadi were talking once more.

"Ricky, I confess that I have underestimated you, but you know body refining isn't my strength. If this is
your full potential, you'd better dissolve the Misty South Faction as soon as possible!"

Gennadi said contemptuously as he kept on increasing the power of the flames on his body.

It was obvious that Gennadi wouldn't hold back from then on, ready to defeat Ricky with everything he
had.

Ricky just smiled because he knew that if he had given out the Fifth Degree of Nine-Degree of Body
Refining Formula just then, Gennadi would have already failed.

So Ricky said, "I hope from now on, you can go far beyond what you have performed so far because
this will be the war of rise for me. It would be dull if you're too weak."
