Chapter 59 Mightiness
"Boom!"
In a resounding, ferocious voice, Jarvis' strength surged once more. The infinite earth force spun into a whirlpool, and integrated
into his body.
As this was happening, Jarvis used his blood vitality as a guide to integrate into the cultivation method of the Earth Armor.
Now the third, fourth, and fifth layers of Earth Armor merged onto Jarvis' body. He quickly put a pair of yellow gloves on his
hands, which fused with the earth force immediately.
"Jarvis is cultivating the Earth Armor to the fifth degree! How could it be, when the highest degree of the Earth Armor is said to
be the fourth degree?" The disciples under the arena exclaimed, incredulous.
"We can't be sure about what is going to happen. It is hard to ever illustrate the power of the fifth layer Earth Armor! Even if Ricky
is protected by his mysterious body refinement cultivation method, there's still a good chance that he won't be able to withstand
Jarvis' power!"
"The top ten disciples are ranked as such for a reason. We have no idea of the full extent of their power!"
......
"With the five-layered Earth Armor, Jarvis is definitely worthy of some serious advice from us too," Zenith muttered in a low voice.
"He has displayed great skill. With his current ranking, Jarvis has the potential to breakthrough and become a demi-immortal,"
Elder Evan stated, nodding decidedly.
"Ha-ha, but judging from the situation, I surmise that Jarvis and Ricky have irreconcilable matters which could possibly be traced
back to the entire Refinement Faction!" Elder Neil smiled deeply.
"At this point, it all depends on their own abilities. The one who emerges the winner can stand at the peak of the Snow Sect,"
Zenith said.
"Chief Zenith, don't you plan to take Ricky under your wing?"
Elder Lucia asked. She found Zenith's statement unexpected - after all, Ricky had succeeded in cultivating the Nine-degree Body
Refining Formula!
"I did want to take him under my wing. I even wanted to accept him as a disciple. But I know that now is not the time." Zenith
continued, "The cultivation of the Nine-degree Body Refining Formula requires a great deal out of a martial warrior. For centuries,
no one has succeeded in the cultivation method!"
"Oh! That means you want to toughen him up even more!"
......
"Well, you know that each of the top ten outer disciples is difficult to beat!" Having Jarvis' strength, Ricky thought to himself, 'Jim
and Dustin have sword-light, while Jarvis has the five-layered Earth Armor. Each skill is enough to dominate the realm of Skin
Refinement alone.
'But it's just a pity that I have just now also reach the ninth degree of Skin Refinement.'
Ricky muttered, the momentum from him was also rising. But this power was no longer the reinforcement of cultivation method
and other forces, but the elevation of a true realm. At this moment, Ricky couldn't restrain himself. The power from the ninth
degree of Skin Refinement broke out directly.
"The ninth degree of Skin Refinement!? Ricky has reached the ninth degree of Skin Refinement!"
the disciples shouted, pandemonium breaking out instantly. In just a few days, Ricky had a breakthrough once again, which was
a great surprise to everyone.
Ricky's cultivation speed was shockingly unheard of, even for the highest-ranking disciples.
'Jarvis is already so dangerous! But...' All the disciples thought, having now seen Ricky's transformation.
'With only the power of the eighth degree of Skin Refinement, Ricky was able to suppress Jarvis... now that with the ninth, how
volatile could Ricky be?'
'Will he be able to take on those warriors of the first grade of Blood Purification?'
Many disciples were wondering.
They had changed their minds about the seemingly powerful five-layered Earth Armor.
"The ninth degree of Skin Refinement!" 'The ninth!' 'How could it be?' "How could you break through again!?" Jarvis roared,
infuriated. Like the disciples, he had lost a bit of confidence too.
"You have your specialties, and so do I. And isn't it just fitting that two warriors both at the ninth degree of Skin Refinement would
face each other in battle?" Ricky grinned.
As he spoke, the manic spiritual energy on his right fist rose, encompassing his fingers with red energy. The roar of a tiger
resounded from his fist.
"So what? You will die at my hand!" Jarvis shouted, fully angry at Ricky's mockery.
The yellow gloves on his firsts fused with the five-layered Earth Armor, forming a tight defensive shield against Ricky.
Now, the yellow dust surged and gathered onto Jarvis' fists, before he blasted five punches in rapid succession, each punch
stronger than the one before it.
"Five Solid Power Punches!"
With a roar of total fury, Jarvis rushed at Ricky.
As he anticipated the Five Solid Power Punches, Ricky looked calm. He stepped casually towards Jarvis and slammed his Whiz
Fist on his oncoming opponent.
"Boom!"
Ricky's first strike hit the first shadow of Jarvis' Solid Power Punches.
In the same rapid succession that Jarvis delivered his punches, their shadows were destroyed one by one by Ricky's fists.
Even if each punch had been delivered to be more powerful than the last, to Ricky there was no difference, as he found each
one weak.
"Boom!" After smashing the five shadows of Solid Power Punches, Ricky's fists struck Jarvis' arms which had been crossed in a
defensive stance.
Ricky felt a desire to show off, and instantaneously increased the force on his fists. Because of this, he almost showed the
Second Degree of Nine-degree Body Refining Formula.
"Crack" Only the sound of broken bones was to be heard. Jarvis flew backwards and landed on the arena with a heavy thud. He
then curled his body, screaming pitifully.
Ricky's punch had broken his arms.
"Gasp!"
Seeing this scene of immense power unfold, the disciples caught their breath. The shock remained painted upon their faces.
They had thought that Ricky stood a chance at defeating Jarvis, but never in a million years could they have predicted the ease
at which he won.
"Ricky is so powerful!" Many disciples said, still reeling from the shock.
"I'm afraid that Lean is no opponent for Ricky! Perhaps only Rufus can stand up against him!"
......
Hearing them say that he couldn't defeat Ricky, Lean felt overcome by anger. He scowled furiously, his face darkening like a
thundercloud.
However, looking at Jarvis who was screaming in pain on the arena, Lean was taken aback. 'Can I possibly defeat Ricky right
now?' he asked himself.
......
"Elders, as a disciple of the Snow Sect, Ricky hit his fellow disciple so hard. His cultivation base should be banned, and he must
be cast away according to rules of the Snow Sect!" someone stated bitterly.
Ricky turned around to find it was Harald, one of the core disciples. Connie and other members from the Casting Faction stood
next to him.
"I agree with Harald! Ricky should be expelled from the Snow Sect!"
The disciples from the Casting Faction shouted forcefully.
The disciples from Refinement Faction agreed. Despite hailing from different factions that were rivals, they understood the
gravity of Ricky's actions.
All eyes stared at Ricky. They wondered how the Elders would decide upon this case.
After all, Ricky did hurt his fellow disciple severely in the Snow Sect.
