Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 555 The Trouble With Madeline

"In the Three-hall City, there are the Saber Hall, the Spear Hall, and the Sword Hall. Those three halls have joint control of the city," Scar said before he turned and nodded in agreement toward Ricky. "There is a secret place in the city. We called it the Land of Quintessence. The Quintessence of Heaven and Earth appears there every five years."

"The Quintessence of Heaven and Earth? What is that?" Ricky echoed curiously when he heard Scar use that strange term.

"It's a kind of essential energy from the heaven and earth. Most of the essential energy from heaven and earth appears in the form of Treasures from Heaven and Earth, but a part of that energy presents itself in a liquid form instead," Scar explained. "The Quintessence of Heaven and Earth in the Three-hall City can not only be refined by creatures, but it can also be absorbed by spiritual weapons.

A spiritual weapon will become more powerful after absorbing it, though its level won't be upgraded. When it is used by its owner, it can cause greater destructive energy. What's even more amazing is that, if a spiritual weapon and its owner uses the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth at the same time, they will become more closely connected.

Needless to say, if a creature refines the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth, their cultivation level will also be greatly improved.”

"What? Is it really that powerful?" Ricky exclaimed in shock after he learned the details of what the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth was from Scar.

The Quintessence of Heaven and Earth seemed to be born for him and his Iron Destroyer! He had successfully re-produced the Iron Destroyer not long ago. If he and his weapon were to refine the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth successfully, his combat power would be enhanced greatly!

"So, I think the trouble must have something to do with the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth. Am I right about that?" Ricky asked again.

"Exactly! In the past hundred years, the three halls would send out three young warriors to have a competition. Whoever won the competition would win the right to refine the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth,” Scar continued to explain.

"However, in the last sixty years, the warrior from the Spear Hall had never won, so they failed to gain the right to refine it. As a result, their youngest generation was becoming weaker than that of the Saber Hall and the Sword Hall as time went by.

We have made an agreement that no one is allowed to seek help from others during the competition. However, according to my informer, the Spear Hall has contacted an organization at the Demi-spiritual Emperor Level called the Garuda tribe, and promised to pay them a large amount of money for help.

The Garuda tribe accepted their offer, and they have sent out a talented young man named Keyon Jin to help the Spear Hall. Keyon Jin also wants to win the Quintessence of Heaven and Earth.”

"Oh, I see," Ricky said. "In that case, you guys can also seek help from others."

"You are right. The Sword Hall did it. They have contacted the Apsara Palace, which is also a demi- spiritual-emperor force," Scar explained. "As for my hall—the Saber Hall—we had support from the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce in the past.

They don't trust me anymore because I failed to take the spiritual space tool back to them before. What's worse, they even threatened the other forces at the Demi-spiritual Level from other realms not to help me. So, no one can help me except you."

"I understand now. It seems that the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce is a really narrow-minded and vicious force judging from the fact that they want to trap you in a desperate situation because you failed them just one time," Ricky stated with murderous intent in his eyes. What Scar had just said made him very angry.

"Well, that's just how the forces at that level do things, We can't force them to change their style,” Scar responded in a helpless tone as he shrugged his shoulders.

"Luckily, a senior called Cameron from the Oriental College made some human skin masks. No one will recognize us when we wear those masks. Even a demi-spiritual emperor would hardly be able to tell who we really are. It would be extremely difficult for us to go anywhere without being tailed by anyone otherwise," Ricky said.

"Why is Madeline in trouble? Does she have something to do with all this?" Soar asked.

"The young man of the Garuda tribe is a lecher. Ever since he saw Madeline, he has been demanding that I send her to him and has been threatening me with the wrath of his powerful family," Scar explained patiently.

"He also asked me to send your maids to him, by the way. That's why I asked for your help.”

"Now I understand everything. Keyon Jin, right? How dare he bully us like that!" Ricky said in a cold tone.

He did not have any feelings for Yedda or Yolanda, and he treated them as his younger sisters. How could he stop himself from being so angry when he heard that someone was harboring such dirty intention towards them?

"Keyon Jin, I remember his name! Fuck him! I'm going to tear him into pieces,” Soar exclaimed in rage. "Scar, you said there are three places for the competition, right? Let me fight! I can't wait to beat up that bastard!"

"Haha, Soar, you are such a straightforward person! It's really just so hard to say no to you!" After hearing what Soar said, Scar burst into laughter as he turned to look at Madeline.

Madeline, on the other hand, blushed. She felt a bit awkward, and didn't know whether she should give any response to him or not.

"Haha, of course you are going to battle against that young man. I know that no one can stop you from doing that if you really want to,” Ricky said with a smile on his face.

"Scar, when will the competition start?" Ricky asked after he stopped laughing.

Needless to say, Ricky, Soar, and Madeline were all going to participate in the competition.

"It will start in ten days, but before that, I'm afraid we have to deal with things that are going to happen three days from now. Keyon Jin will be coming to take Madeline away. We need to deal with him first," Scar said.

"That's great! We can make a plan in advance then,” Soar said in a cold voice.

"I don't think we can do that. A completed spiritual king follows him all the time. He is much stronger than me. What's more, the leader of the Spear Hal will also be there. We don't have the upper hand at all in this situation,” Scar said, his tone becoming serious as he frowned.

"Can you deny him by telling him that Madeline is a disciple of the Oriental College?" Ricky asked calmly.

"I don't think that would work. Keyon Jin is also a disciple of the Oriental College," Scar replied. "What's more, we are in the Three-hall City, not in the territory of the Oriental College. He doesn't fear the Oriental College.”

"The situation is a little bit tricky then,” Ricky said as his brows furrowed. His mind was racing as he tried to figure out a way to solve the problem at hand.

In the next moment, his eyes lit up. An idea of what to do seemed to have sprung up in his mind. "Ricky, do you have any ideas?" Soar asked as soon as he noticed the change in Ricky's demeanor. "Yes, I do, but I'm not sure whether it will work or not.” Ricky nodded his head a few times before he stretched his hand out. A white jade tablet was sitting in the palm of his hand

On the front of it, there was the word "Oriental," and on the back side there was the word "Zhang." That was not the identity jade tablet of the disciples from the Oriental College though. It was the jade tablet that Zenith had asked for from Cheryl Zhang. Ricky had not used it before.

"That...that is the jade tablet of the Zhang Clan! The peerless genius called Jasper is also from the clan," Scar exclaimed in surprise. He recognized it as soon as he saw it.

"Do you know about it?" Ricky was surprised that Scar knew something about the jade tablet.

"Yes, of course. All the forces at the Demi-spiritual Level have their own unique jade tablets with their symbols,” Scar replied. "I knew that it was from the Zhang Clan at first sight. Any creature, as long as they have the jade tablet of the Zhang Clan, doesn't have to fear anything. Owning the jade tablet indicates that you have the support of some core member of the Zhang Clan.

Besides, once the jade tablet is crushed, the demi-spiritual emperor of the Zhang Clan should be able to feel it."

"That's so impressive. I didn't know that the jade tablet was so useful,” Ricky said in surprise when he heard Scar's explanation.

His original plan was to show the jade tablet to Keyon Jin in order to threaten him and stop him from taking Madeline away temporarily. Ricky only wished that the prestige of the Zhang Clan would stop the young man from trying to take her away.

He was really surprised at its usefulness after he learned how useful the jade tablet he possessed was. Deep inside, he was very grateful for what Zenith had done for him.
