"I...I can't believe it! He has absorbed all the thunder power!" the warriors around sighed heavily upon
seeing Ricky was able to successfully resist the fourth attack of Thunderstroke Doom and absorb all
the thunders.
Afterwards, they kept their eyes on Ricky to check if he really could fight the five-colored Thunderstroke
Doom.
On the other hand, everyone knew that this was not Ricky's own Thunderstroke Doom. This meant that
there was supposed to be no chance of survival contained in this Thunderstroke Doom.
But Ricky was a fighter. He kept on revealing one trump card after another to uplift the hope in their
hearts
'Onto the fifth attack of Thunderstroke Doom! I feel it coming any time soon. When that happens, I'm
sure my Thunder Light Blade will definitely bloom once again!' Ricky thought to himself heavily as his
right arm was still in the form of thunders.
He knew that he was able to sense death like nobody else could. Even though he was already stepping
on the incredible path, he still vividly felt the presence of death coming from the fifth attack of
Thunderstroke Doom that hadn't descended yet.
With that being said, Ricky's heart was still heavy despite showing assurance that he could surpass the
wrath of the fifth attack.
But he was already there, and there was no other choice for him except to go on bravely. At that
moment, he knew deep in his heart that nothing could stop him.
Soon after, he gathered all the power from his Ancestral Thunder Zone on the Thunder Light Blade and
readied himself for the final confrontation.
Boom!
Finally, the fifth attack of the Thunderstroke Doom came rushing down. The entire sky above the
Complete Emperor Island was now covered with five colors, which reeked of the smell of impending
death without the chance of survival.
At that moment, nobody batted an eye as they keenly observed Ricky's every move.
However, Ricky sensed that he had already fallen into the pit of death at that moment.
'But how is this possible? The Thunderstroke Doom has not attacked me yet, but I already feel being
slowly pulled towards death!' Ricky thought to himself in utter disbelief. 'I've stepped on the incredible
path. Wouldn't the five-colored Thunderstroke Doom want to give me a little chance of life after all this?'
At this moment, Ricky realized that his Ancestral Thunder Omnipotent Skill would not be able to resist
the fifth attack and absorb the energy contained in the oncoming attack.
That was because the gap between their strengths was just too huge.
Just like comparing a newborn lion to a grown-up water buffalo, a small creature could not compete
with a gigantic entity no matter how strong it could be in its own way.
'Is it possible that the so-called incredible path doesn't mean I have to look for a chance of life? Does it
mean that I will go against the heavenly law and be suppressed by it?' Ricky wondered in his heart.
Meanwhile, he stopped moving, controlling every part of his body not to make any movement. This was
not because he gave up his last struggle, but because he was suppressed by the fifth attack from the
Thunderstroke Doom. In fact, the strike was so powerful that he didn't have any power to fight back.
"Does this very strike indicate how strong the five-colored Thunderstroke Doom genuinely is?" But with
the fighting spirit that Ricky had in his soul, he was not ready to give up just yet.
He did not believe that he was going to die just as soon as he stepped on his own incredible path in the
martial arts world.
However, no matter how determined and eager he was to stay alive, he only felt the unwillingness to
admit defeat and surrender.
Striving to win, he once again activated the Chaos blood power and the power of the mysterious axe.
This time, both the Chaos blood power and the mysterious axe sensed Ricky's helpless situation,
resulting in their voluntary appearance. Soon after, golden light and an axe shadow emerged above
Ricky's head.
After everything he tried to use to win, this was his last resort.
However, his efforts were still in vain. Although the mysterious axe and the Chaos blood power were
undoubtedly extraordinary, they still weren't strong enough to resist the fifth attack pressing him.
After everything that he did to survive, perhaps, he was still going to be destroyed eventually.
Fortunately, the mysterious axe and the Chaos blood power were there to his rescue.
These two things might not be able to resist the power of the heavenly doom, but they attracted a
voice.
"This bloodline and that axe...Are they predestined?"
Out of the blue, an invisible voice came to Ricky's ears.
Because of the voice, the Thunderstroke Doom around Ricky no longer hurt him, although it was still
pouring out its power.
Seeing what had happened left Ricky in a very puzzling situation.
At that time, everything was so sudden and unbelievable that he thought that he was in a dream.
A few moments later, the voice sounded again. "All right. Fine! Maybe everything is destined! Since I
have given him some grace, then it is just fair to give you some, too!
Sure enough, this might be destiny! Or it could also probably be just good karma making its way to
you!"
After the voice trailed off, nothing seemed to follow.
At that moment, Ricky felt the clear withdrawal of the heavenly doom's power.
"Look! Look over there! The heavenly doom is retreating!" The warriors around noticed the change at
the moment.
"Wait, what happened? But the fifth attack of the heavenly doom is supposed to be the strongest and
last for the longest time, isn't it? I just don't understand why and how it could retreat just when it was
started to descend."
"Is it because Ricky is already dead?"
"Well, I can't tell but that's the only possibility right now."
'I guess that the voice was real. It said it gave me some grace. Did it mean that it helped me withdraw
the heavenly doom?' Ricky thought to himself, still baffled by his experience.
'In the world, only the heavenly law is able to withdraw the heavenly doom. According to ancient books,
the heavenly law also has its consciousness and mind, making it the oldest creature in the world.
But why did it do all this for me?
I can't forget its voice when it said that it also gave some grace to another man.
Did it mean it gave its grace to Oswald? If that is true, then something tells me that Oswald is still alive.'
Bearing this in mind, Ricky suddenly turned his eyes to the other place where the Thunderstroke Doom
was still attacking.
As soon as he took a glimpse of it, he was certain that he sensed a familiar aura.
"Haha! Spiritual emperor! Finally, I've made it!" Soon after, a series of hysterical laughter rang out. After
listening more closely, Ricky identified it to be Oswald's voice.
Oswald had resisted the Thunderstroke Doom with his own strength, which was extremely powerful
and destructive.
With real ruling power spreading from his body, he soared into the sky and stood straight in mid-air.
Once again, he appeared in everyone's gaze.
"Oswald! Th...That is Oswald!" the warriors around exclaimed in surprise.
"But how could it be possible? He's not dead after all!"
In a snap, all the stunned warriors became astonished.
Moreover, they were out of words to express the surprise they felt.
Today's events were just too bizarre. Apparently, Ricky had been killed by the heavenly doom, but
Oswald survived. How could he still be alive?
In addition, at this moment, they could also feel that Oswald had become a real spiritual emperor.
After a long time, the warriors around came to their senses and accepted the impossible fact.
"So what? Although you have broken through the Thunderstroke Doom, the existence of an owner of
the Blue Water Mutant is not allowed on the continent!" some spiritual emperors said coldly.
"Plus, for the sake of your own interest, you exposed all the warriors on the Complete Emperor Island
to the Thunderstroke Doom. This is outright unforgivable!"
As soon as they finished their words, some spiritual emperors already went to attack Oswald.
As Oswald saw the spiritual emperors rushing towards him, he stopped laughing. But there was no fear
in his eyes because he had already expected that this would happen. Otherwise, he would not have
revealed his Blue Water Mutant or chosen such a way to break through the Thunderstroke Doom in this
place.
"What an arrogant bunch of old men! What? You want to kill me? You must be dreaming!" Oswald
taunted.
"No, you are the one who is arrogant! You already deserve to die only because you have the Blue
Water Mutant. How could even think that you deserve our mercy?" several spiritual emperors scorned.
At the same time, they also prepared to take action. Of course, they wouldn't allow Oswald to survive,
whether it was for public interest or their own.
"No. Leave him to me, please!"
