Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 219 An Unexpected Visitor

The Fire Cloud Fist was a fire-natured cultivation method in the intermediate stage of the Black Level.

There were four levels of that type of fist.

For one thing, warriors who wanted to practice this method had to have the capability to control and

manipulate their fire spiritual energy with their own will. They had to be powerful enough to transfer

their fire spiritual energy into either a cloud or mist easily.

It was a bit similar for warriors to practice the Chaotic Fire Skill, which required the practitioners to be

able to control the fire freely.

It sounded like an easy job, but it was not as easy as it seemed. Few warriors who focused on

practicing the cultivation methods of fire elements were strong enough to do it.

Another thing was that they had to be able to feel the strong fire elements from the air or space around

them. They needed to control those elements from outside skillfully. They also had to change them into

either a cloud or mist just like what they could do to their own fire spiritual energy.

Only those who were strong enough to manipulate both the external fire elements and the internal fire

spiritual energy were qualified to practice the Fire Cloud Fist.

The four levels of the fist were able to be explained in depth.

To reach the first level, warriors should be able to use the fire spiritual energy they possessed and the

fire elements from the outside to form a shadow fist with the shape of fire cloud. They then had to show

their peak energy.

To reach the second level, warriors should be able to form two fists and show energy that was twice as

strong as their own strength.

To reach the third level, warriors should form three fists and show energy that was thrice as strong as

their own strength.

As for the highest level, the forth level, there was not a uniform standard. How many fists they could

form and how strong their power could become all depended on how smart and talented the warrior

who used it was.

'It is really worthy to be identified as a cultivation method at the intermediate stage of Black Level! I've

already felt that practicing it is going to be much more difficult that practicing the Five Beasts Arts! I'm

sure it's going to be a really powerful method if I succeed in practicing it! Don't disappoint me, Fire

Cloud Fist!' Ricky said silently to himself. He was delighted at the prospect of learning the new skill.

One of the crucial advantages of the Fire Cloud Fist was that one was able to use energy more

powerful than their own base strength. That trait deviated itself far from an ordinary cultivation method

at the intermediate stage of the Black Level. It made itself more like one of the advanced cultivation

methods of the Black Level.

'I've already succeeded in the Chaotic Fire Skill. This means that I'm able to manipulate the fire easily.

With such an advantage, reaching the first level of the Fire Cloud Fist is not going to be difficult for me.

For the first night here... I'd like to know how much progress I can make tonight!' thought Ricky, as he

activated the two Supreme Skills he owned and began to practice and comprehend the Fire Cloud Fist. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

His cultivation started then as he closed his eyes and dedicated himself to practicing the fist.

As a warrior of Bone Reinforcement, he did not need to sleep much. It was not even exaggeration to

say that he rarely needed to sleep at all. Theoretically, a warrior of Bone Reinforcement could go a

lifetime without sleeping as long as there was enough spiritual energy in their body.

Cultivation and practice were much more important to a warrior of Bone Reinforcement.

...

For warriors, no matter what level they were at, they would not feel time pass when they concentrated

on their cultivation. Ricky was no exception. When he opened his eyes, it was already two days later.

However, he did not feel as if that long had passed. For him, it was like he had only spent several

seconds cultivated.

When he woke up from the cultivation, Ricky felt that the infernal power inside his body grew stronger.

He felt like he had endless infernal power running in his body. He felt that he was just like the volcano

which was about to erupt at any time.

"The Chaotic Fire Skill, plus the Fire Cloud Fist! Even I have no idea how strong I am now," Ricky

muttered to himself while he shook his body out a bit.

"Alva told me that I have to successfully beat someone three levels higher than me when I am at the

Bone Reinforcement stage. The master of the Zhen Clan is at the fourth grade of Bone Reinforcement.

He is an excellent candidate! Yes! Cool! He is my target now. I'm going to beat him and let everyone

know that I'm an excellent talent!"

Ricky said to himself with confident eyes. He walked out of the room with determination.

The moment he stepped out, he heard a cold voice speaking at the gate of the building. "Patrick, you

are not welcome as a guest here, in the territory of the Gu Clan. If you are here to avenge your younger

brother, just do it! I, along with all my family, will be glad to fight against you!"

"Ha-ha, Uncle Charlie, don't be so hostile. You are misinterpreting me. I am visiting your house to

apologize on behalf of my younger brother, and to send my father's regards to you, by the way." Patrick

Zhen made a bow and replied in a sincerely tone. There was a smile resting on his face. No one could

read his mind when he wore such expression because he was a calculating man.

His smile and his calm expression were totally out of everyone's expectation. He did not show any grief

or unhappiness when faced with the people from the Gu Clan. How could he not be grieving?! The one

who died miserably at the gate of the Gu house a few days ago was his younger brother! How could he

be so calm?!

Patrick Zhen was the eldest young master of the Zhen Clan. He had a gentle face and deep eyes. He

was a warrior at the ninth grade of Blood Purification and was pretty similar to his father, Rupert. Rumor

had it that he was actually even crueler and more heartless than Rupert. Despite his gentle looks and

smile, he was actually a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Everyone was scared when they noticed Patrick's seemingly friendly smile and heard his sweet

sounding apology. They all knew that he did not really mean any of what he said. His arrival meant that

a bloody storm was on the way.

"First of all, I'd like to express my congratulations to you, Uncle Charlie. I'm so relieved to hear that

you've already recovered from the toxin. I'm glad to have you back to the martial arts world," Patrick

continued. "My younger brother behaved terribly by saying those offensive words at the gate of the Gu

house. It was all his fault. Even if that brave warrior did not kill him, my father would definitely have

punished him by killing him and would have brought his body here to apologize to you."

"Pffft! You are about as sincere as crocodile tears!" Tracy, Alicia, and many other members snorted

through their noses at Patrick Zhen's speech.

Patrick, on the other hand, turned a deaf ear to their unkind attitude. He continued his speech despite

their behavior.

"Uncle Charlie, I'm really sorry for what my brother did to you. To show my family's remorse, my father

has prepared this; ten thousand golden coins. Please take them. He hopes that the Gu Clan and the

Zhen Clan will get along in the Water Fire City just like the two clans did in the past."

"If you are not here to avenge your brother, I don't see any reason for you to apologize by giving us the

golden coins. Please go away!" Charlie replied in a distant tone. He did not want the Gu Clan to get

involved with the Zhen Clan again. The longer they stayed away from the Zhen Clan, the better. Rather

than listen he wanted to just show Patrick the door at once without accepting his golden coins.

"Yes, I will leave. But first I want to finish the last task my father has assigned to me. I would appreciate

it if you didn't drive me away and let me finish my speech at least." Patrick remained calm and smiling,

despite the fact that Charlie asked him to leave.

"What is it?" asked Charlie.

"Can I talk to that warrior, Russell? My brother and Elder Keaton offended him and I must make

amends," Patrick Zhen said. "So, I'd like to express our apology to him."

He paused for a moment and then continued on as if he was afraid that his excuse of insisting on

seeing Ricky was not convincing enough. "Although my brother is already dead, and Elder Keaton has

already paid the price, both my father and I still feel sorry for him. So, my father asked me to apologize

to him in person."

"Humph! Stop being a liar! Russell is busy in cultivation now. He won't come out and see you!" Alicia

took a step forward and scolded him coldly.

"Oh? He is busy in cultivation now?"

Patrick Zhen asked in surprise. Alicia had given Patrick some key information that caused his eyes to

light up when he heard what she said.

"Alicia, be quiet!" Charlie ordered in a serious tone.

Her father's serious expression made Alicia realize that she had just said something that she was not

supposed to say. Pinching her lips together, she stepped back at once.

"Uncle Charlie, is he really in there practicing now?" Patrick questioned him closely, not willing to let

useful information slip by.

"Master Charlie, if he really wants to talk to me, here I am!" Ricky's voice rang out before he walked out

from behind the Gu Clan members. He knew that it was about time for him to show up. Patrick Zhen

would not let Charlie go easily otherwise.

"Russell! You're done with your cultivation!" Seeing Ricky appear, both Tracy and Alicia spoke in low

and excited voices.

Charlie also felt very relieved at the sight of Ricky. If the Zhen Clan confirmed that Ricky was practicing

in the Gu Clan's home, there might be some terrible consequences since they might do whatever they

could to disturb Ricky and make him lose control during cultivation.

"Oh! You must be Russell! My name is Patrick Zhen. I'm here to apologize to you for my brother! I'm

really glad to meet you." Patrick walked to Ricky and still spoke in a polite manner. However, a

resentful and murderous intent was hiding deep in his eyes. It was not something that was detectable

by ordinary people.

"Patrick Zhen, right? So, you are the eldest young master of the Zhen Clan. I killed your younger

brother and broke your Elder Keaton's arm off. Now, you are claiming that you came here to apologize

to me? Are you serious?" Ricky responded in a distant tone. He was well aware of what kind of person

Patrick Zhen was thanks to his acute insight. His gut feelings told him that the man was a vicious

cunning fox who knew well how to dig out the information he wanted from others with his fake smile.
