Chapter 1217 Establishing Prestige
Chapter 1217 Establishing Prestige
Guillermo unleashed two beams of light when his pupils turned green.
One beam of light soared into the sky and the other cascaded to the ground. The nearby disciples
examined them, discovering that they were actually two smooth mirrors.
They looked like common mirrors but everyone present knew that they were Guillermo's weapon at the
Demi-sage Level.
"What? Guillermo is already showing his trump card? He's using the Double-sided World Mirrors!" one
of the disciples exclaimed when the mirrors in front of him became recognizable.
"He has no other choice. Ricky is way too powerful."
Before their eyes, the two mirrors grew ten times their original size and integrated into the void. Not
long after, two worlds materialized. They had been created through the use of Guillermo's weapon.
Countless towering trees grew from the rich ground in one world, creating enormous wood power. and
in the other world, dazzling light shone and turned into the stellar power.
After Guillermo activated the power of his Stellar Wood Mutant, the two types of power from the two
worlds merged into one. Then a giant shadow formed behind Guillermo.
It was a Buddha's shadow surrounded by the stellar power.
"Take this, the palm strike of the Stellar Wood Buddha!" Guillermo shouted.
The huge Buddha shadow began chanting scriptures and a svastika shadow rotated around it. The
Buddha shadow put its hands together and stretched them forward. In an instant, palm shadows were
flying around the Combat Space.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Guillermo and the onlookers watched unblinkingly as the giant palm shadows, which
contained great power, changed their direction to aim themselves at Ricky.
"Ricky, be careful. That move is potent now that he's using the stellar power. You will not be able to
resist it if you don't use the mutant power. The only reason that you can defeat those who are stronger
than you is because you use your mutant power, chaotic power, and chromatic energy against them.
If you don't use your three trump cards, it will be difficult for you to beat Guillermo," the Dragon Intent
Grass warned.
"Yes, it's a challenge to prevail over a warrior at a higher grade when we both are at the Emperor
Level," Ricky responded.
After he finished talking, he withdrew five types of power, only leaving the power of the Ancestral
Thunder active.
"What's going on? Is Ricky giving up because Guillermo's move is too powerful?" one of the onlookers
asked when he saw Ricky seemingly retreating.
"I don't think so. Just look at Ricky's face. He's still full of fighting spirit."
"Then why did he withdraw five of his powers? Is he trying to fight only using his thunder power? If
that's the case, he is giving himself too much credit..."
However, before they were done with their discussion, Ricky had activated the Ancestral Thunder
Mutant. Purple destructive radiance shone, seemingly destroying all the palm shadows.
Among the nearby disciples, another heated discussion broke out. "He has a mutant of thunder! Now I
see why he was brave enough to withdraw his other powers!"
"A mutant of thunder is powerful and destructive!"
The onlookers were not surprised when Ricky revealed his mutant power. After all, he was a genius.
They would be taken by surprise if a genius like him didn't possess a mutant.
"I knew it! Talented warriors with blood power must possess a mutant," Guillermo exclaimed. "Come
on. Show me what your thunder mutant can do."
"Guillermo, you're still wrong about one thing. My mutant is the Ancestral Thunder Mutant, not the
common thunder mutant," Ricky explained with a sigh.
Then, a wolfish look overtook his face. The mark between his eyebrows lit up and formed the Ancestral
Thunder Net, which immediately filled itself with ancestral thunder runes.
No matter how hard one tried, nothing could escape the Ancestral Thunder Net. It enveloped all of
Guillermo's powers and palm shadows in one swift move.
Under Guillermo's control, the Buddha shadow opened its arms and unleashed thousands of palm
shadows at once, trying to break out. But there was no way that Ricky would let Guillermo get what he
wanted.
Within half a second, the Iron Justice Saber spread to its full size in Ricky's hand. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Six different runes released six powers, which all combined into ancestral thunder.
"Slash now!"
Ricky brandished his blade at the Buddha shadow. At the same time, he forced his Ancestral Thunder
Net to shrink. As a result, he easily deflected all of Guillermo's attacks.
Once the Buddha shadow had been shattered, the two mirrors flew back and landed in Guillermo's
palms. They fused with his arms and he crossed them to resist the remaining attacks coming his way.
However, the wave of power was too much for Guillermo and he was thrown away. When he was finally
able to steady himself, his body was still trembling from the impact.
Pain shot through his chest and a mouthful of blood was spat onto the ground seconds later.
Although Guillermo was not defeated altogether, it was obvious that Ricky was stronger than him.
"It looks like Guillermo has lost. That means that we have another genius who is strongly competitive to
be the holy son," a disciple said as he watched the battle coming to a close.
The result was not all that surprising. After all, they were both powerful warriors. None of them could
have predicted who would win the fight until the last second.
However, none of them had expected that Ricky was yet to show his true trump cards.
Only Ashley knew that he had concealed his real strength.
'Ricky defeated Guillermo using nothing but the power of a mutant! Then, I assume that Hayes won't be
a match for him either... I think the only person that could beat him at this point and prevent him from
becoming the holy son is the mysterious Mordechai,' Ashley thought, frowning.
"All right. You win," Guillermo admitted as he wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth.
Since he had failed, he wasn't afraid to admit it. However, he would not get frustrated and give up.
"Ricky, I will work on my strength and defeat you in the holy son election. Mark my words," Guillermo
said firmly.
"Ha! Well, I'm looking forward to another battle between us," Ricky responded casually.
Although he hadn't unleashed all his might during his fight with Guillermo, he had gotten to know his
own limits. If he were to activate his strength to the highest level, his power would grow close to a
three-star lower spiritual emperor's at the peak state.
Once he became a three-star lower spiritual emperor, few other three-star lower spiritual emperors
could match his strength.
Plus, during the battle, Ricky had established his prestige. This was something that he wanted. Now, all
the looks on the disciples' faces showed him that they were in awe.
'There is only one thing left to do. I must fight for the position of the holy son,' Ricky thought. 'According
to Ashley, Mordechai is the only one who might stop me from becoming the holy son. It means that he
is a powerful opponent.'
A few moments later, Guillermo took his leave, ending the duel. Ricky was now standing taller, puffing
his chest out for all to see.
"You're trying to use others to embarrass me. It looks like you won't get what you want today," Ricky
said flatly after landing in front of Ashley.
"There will be plenty of opportunities. I know many geniuses, and some of them are not from the Five-
element Sect," Ashley replied, not bothering to hide.
"Ha-ha! In that case, I will thank you in advance. You're welcome to invite more people to challenge
me. I'm more than happy to battle talented warriors. But maybe next time you should focus on picking
someone at my level so that they have a chance of defeating me," Ricky said.
"You are too cocky!" Ashley said in a displeased tone.
"Ha! Let's stop wasting precious time. Take me to my room and find a place for my friends to reside,"
Ricky ordered.
As he waved his right hand, Tina and Amelia showed up.
"No way! Ricky has lovers?" a nearby disciple exclaimed with jealousy. Everyone present fixed their
eyes on the two women.
Although Tina and Amelia were not strong, they were on par with Ashley in terms of looks and
temperament.
Ashley was also surprised at the sight of the two women. Observing them secretly, she began to
compare herself to them.
