The legendary warrior Chapter 1278 The Heart Of Illusion

Boom!

At that moment, there was nothing but utter chaos in Ricky's mind. He felt like the sky had fallen, and
the earth seemed to have been pulled from under him, rendering him afloat in a dark, endless void. All
kinds of cruel and painful experiences flashed in his mind as he floated in this void, continuing until he
was ready to succumb to devastation.

"This is a test and an opportunity at the same time. Besides, the king and the queen set up this pool,
and it only allows warriors who have condensed the heart of illusion to get their inheritance."

The illusion power aimed to overwhelm and break his mind. He needed to resist its efforts with his
tenacious willpower.

If he remained steadfast against this test, then he could finally have the chance to condense the heart
of illusion.

There was one gargantuan problem though: he could not use any power or ability. He could only use
his will.

Ricky valued perseverance and tenacity when it came to the martial arts, and he was exceedingly
persistent in accomplishing something that he had already set his mind on. Perhaps, his tenacity could
have some negative effects, but he persisted in what he thought was right.

He sorely needed strength. If he were strong enough, he could help Tina drive the evil spirit out of her
body, and he would be able to go to the Phoenix tribe and the Celestial Sect as well.

Most importantly, only by his strength could he see his mother.

That was what he wanted to do the most, and he was prepared to sacrifice a lot for these things.



To succeed, he desperately needed to use his will to evolve the mind power, as the power of his body
could not be used.

His objectives and inspirations held his mind together by a thread, encouraging him to fight and
overcome this challenge. That was the power evolved from his mind power. It appeared invisible and
faint, but it could become invincible with enough persistence.

Under the pressure of relentless illusions, Ricky's mind couldn't register the flow of time.

The only thing he could remember was that whenever an illusion started, he had to break the illusion
through his strong will. He had to fight against the grief and invisible cruelty brought by the illusion to
his heart, ripping it without mercy. At this point, he had repeatedly turned away from his family
members and friends despite their phantom entreaties.

He reminded himself over and over again—they were illusionary. He could only rescue them in real life
once he passed this terrible test.

Ricky suffered so much that he couldn't even tell how long this torture had been going on.

Finally, his mind entered his body, which had been in a trance. He opened his eyes and found the
Illusionary Pool and the mist in the surroundings welcomed him.

"Very good! It seems that you have a strong will!" The voice of the queen's will rang out with great
admiration.

"No matter the situation, you always come out on top, shining clear and bright at the last moment. With
such strong willpower, you must have suffered a lot."

"Wow! I can't believe six hours have passed.

It is as difficult as experiencing the most difficult physical refinement!"



Ricky exclaimed with a deep, relieved sigh as sweat poured out profusely from his brow.

Thanks to the six hours of torture he had gone through, he was able to learn a lot.

Now, he could feel that his will had grown clearer, and it seemed that his comprehension ability had
increased. He realized that he had comprehended something when his mind went into the Gale Zone.

Of course, this was not the right time for him to explore what he had comprehended.

"How many people have passed this test?" Ricky curiously asked after a few moments.

"Including you, three people have already passed. That is actually more than I expected,"

admitted the queen's will.

"Can you please tell me who the other two are?"

Ricky followed up.

"Of course, it's not like it's a secret anyway. The other two are Claire and Michael," the queen's will
replied.

"Frankly, I'm quite surprised that those two had passed," said Ricky thoughtfully.

"Don't you think Peter was the most likely to qualify?"

"You are right about the man named Peter. He has great willpower and the Illusory Mutant, so he could
have passed the test with flying colors.

But for some reason, he gave up at the last minute," said the queen's will.

Ricky reared back and looked at the queen in shock.



"What?! Why would he give up?"

he asked in confusion.

As Ricky thought about it some more, he finally understood why Peter had to give up. Peter probably
wanted to leave all the heritage of the king and queen to Claire.

'That's the only reason that Peter would choose to give up just as the queen had said. But
unfortunately, Michael also passed the test. Peter must have been shocked and regretful about his
decision when he found out this, and he is undoubtedly worrying about Claire right now!'

Ricky wondered to himself.

However, he couldn't blame Peter because even he didn't expect Michael to pass.

"Claire's perseverance doesn't seem very strong, but she has a special identity that redeemed her. I
can't tell you more about that though," revealed the queen's will.

"As for that boy named Michael, he possesses a very dark power that permeated his mind, enabling
him to pass this test."

"Claire has a special identity?

And Michael has a dark power?"

Ricky murmured in confusion, and his interest was piqued by the words of the queen's will.

'Perhaps, I was wrong about Claire's identity. So, who on earth is she?

What kind of special identity does she have that even the queen's will has taken note of it?'

Ricky thought to himself curiously.



"The four who failed the test will be moved out. Since you have passed, you will stay in the Illusionary
Pool for half a day longer, and you can obtain the opportunity from it,"

explained the queen's will.

After this, Ricky stopped speculating about other things and concentrated on cultivating in the
Illusionary Pool.

The opportunity that the Illusionary Pool held, which the queen's will had just mentioned, was to
condense the heart of illusion.

After the previous test, Ricky's heart had essentially evolved into the heart of illusion. In the following
days, as long as he made use of the pure illusion power contained in the Illusionary Pool, he could
completely condense the heart of illusion.

And since Ricky had the Gale Zone, he only needed half a day to do that.

When he summoned the Gale Zone, the queen's will was naturally shocked again.

'I can't believe that all his three Small Worlds have the most primitive power. I didn't think that's
possible!

But there's something strange because when I try to sense them, they do not seem to be Small
Worlds,' the queen's will thought to herself.

She kept on observing him, but instead of getting answers, she only succeeded in uncovering more
questions.

After the pure illusion power fused with Ricky's heart, it began to evolve into the heart of illusion.



After about twelve hours, Ricky's heart could finally enter the illusionary state even as he remained fully
in control.

At this point, it became evident that Ricky's heart had turned into the heart of illusion.

He also possessed the illusion power, which could assist him in creating some simple illusions, thanks
to his Gale Zone.

No matter how talented a warrior was, no individual would be able to instantly create an illusion if that
person had only recently condensed the heart of illusion. It could only be done once that person had
cultivated for a long time. But Ricky did it.

Now that Ricky had noticed that there was little time left, he felt like he couldn't waste it. Thus, he
continued to make use of the Illusionary Pool, but he focused his cultivation on his Gale Zone next.

After all, he knew that if he wanted to control the illusion power quickly, he had to start from the Gale
Zone.

"Your half a day is up.

You can now go to the Heritage Palace, and I won't be showing up anymore.

Once you complete the two remaining tests, my mission will also be completed, and two of you will get
the heritage," the queen's will instructed.

"Of course, it is entirely possible that one of you can obtain both heritages at the same time. It will all
depend on your strength."

As soon as the queen's will finished speaking, a force suddenly swept Ricky and brought him into an
ancient palace.



Just as he appeared, the queen's will completely disappeared.

He glanced around and saw that Claire and Michael seemed to have been transported with him as
well.

The three participants glanced at each other, although none of them seemed surprised to see one
another. After all, they all knew who had passed the test.
