Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 317 Open Hearts to Each Other

Luckily, when the innate spiritual king launched the attack, Ricky had already urged the Chaotic Fire

Zone and escaped that valley. The innate spiritual king was left furious as he didn't catch Ricky.

At this moment, Kristen and Tyson both came back from the shock and turned their eyes to Ricky,

knowing that Ricky would explain to them. They were gasping their breaths but were eager to hear

Ricky's explanations. Heaving a deep sigh, Ricky met their gaze with confusion in their eyes.

"Kristen, Tyson, I know how confused you are right now. But first, let me introduce myself again before I

explain this zone and everything that happened." Gazing at the two, Ricky smiled and immediately took

the mask away, revealing his real face. The moment Kristen and Tyson saw his face, a flustered and

shocked look unveiled from their faces.

This was the decision Ricky made, exposing the Chaotic Fire Zone and facing Kristen and Tyson in his

true identity. It might seem a rushed thing to do, but he had to reveal himself for another significant

purpose.

In addition, Kristen and Tyson had proven their worth to Ricky, so he didn't find any reason to not trust

them. In his heart, he had known what kind of persons Kristen and Tyson were.

If neither of them was sincere, it could only be that either they were really good at pretending, or Ricky

was a super idiot. It would have been foreseen by Ricky a long time ago already if they were frauds.

"You... You are..." Tyson jabbered and could not believe the instant change from a familiar face to a

strange one. Now, his mind became even more chaotic than earlier because of what he was

witnessing.

"Tyson, he is Ricky. Ricky from the Snow Sect who goes against the Realm of Wildness," Kristen said,

which was supposed to come from Ricky himself. To Ricky's and Soar's surprise, Kristen was not

shocked but calmly told the truth to Tyson, who was currently lost in bafflement.

"Ricky? How is this possible? It's too surreal! Are you really him?"

Tyson said with a serious tone.

"Kristen, you seem to have known my identity for a long while. How and since when did you know

about it?" Slightly shocked, Ricky smiled and asked Kristen.

"Well, it wasn't obvious at first. But when you said you could cast, I began to suspect it, considering that

your ability can challenge above your level. So after you cast two weapons, I saw your excellent

Pounding Skill, I could 50% confirm your identity," Kristen started explaining calmly.

"Until there was a time where I had the opportunity to confirm my suspicions. When you used your

weapon casting skills to conquer Trent, I've had completely identify you," Kristen finished.

"It seems that I'm not careful enough. What a pity," Ricky said to Kristen flatly, feeling quite

disappointed.

However, he was relieved at the same time because it was Kristen who found out. Since this moment,

Ricky had more trust in Kristen, because she did not say anything to anyone after she confirmed his

identity, which was the strong evidence that Kristen really treated him as a friend. It was lucky for him to

find this kind of person who understood that what he had back then was necessary to be hidden.

"Yes, you are. You've let your guard down,"

Kristen nodded in a poker face.

"Fortunately, it's you who found out about it. Or was it really a fortunate one?" Ricky replied playfully,

and Kristen could only roll her eyes and bite her lips to prevent herself from smiling. After a few

moments, she returned her gaze back to Ricky.

As she met Ricky's smiling face again, she couldn't help but smile back. The two looked at each other

intensely while smiling, which indicated their mutual trust beyond words.

For Kristen, she didn't care whether the man standing in front of her was called Russell or Ricky. All

she really cared about was that he was her friend. It was always the same person, no matter how many

times he changed his name and face.

"Hey Tyson, do you understand now? I'm sorry if I had to keep it from you,"

Ricky said with apologetic eyes, as turned his gaze onto Tyson, who was still a little shocked.

"More or less," Tyson muttered in a low voice. It was still an unbelievable incident for him, so he

couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Later, walking to Ricky, Tyson looked him up and down, from head to toe, and asked again, "Russell,

are you really Ricky?"

"Tyson, I'm 100 percent real. I am really Ricky,"

Ricky replied with a soft chuckle. Tyson's face was too hilarious that he couldn't help but laugh a little.

"Kristen knew it all along. The ability to compete above your level, the weapon casting skill, and the

cultivation method of body refining. How could I miss all these clues? I'm so stupid! I was always left

behind!" Tyson complained to himself and scratched his head. "It was too obvious, but I didn't even

have a suspicion. Foolish me..."

"It's okay, Tyson. Now..." Ricky gently patted Tyson's head and grinned.

"Now I only know that you are my friend, a friend I can trust everything with. I have known you as, so

now, Russell or Ricky, whichever your name is, nothing will change," Tyson became serious, being

sincere with his words to Ricky.

"Ha-ha!"

Then, he became serious and said, "I will make sure that you will like Ricky too. My real self. This time,

there won't be any pretention anymore."

At the back of his mind, he could only reminisce what his life used to be. It was so lonely to become a

powerful master in the martial arts world but it would not be the case anymore with true friends on the

way.

At this point, Ricky didn't notice that a drop of blood essence had been overflowing from the middle of

their eyebrows after Kristen and Tyson exchanged a short glance. Little did Ricky knew, the two had

something planned on their minds already.

Then they two vowed to the drop of their own blood essence. "I swear by the name of martial arts. I will

treat Ricky as my own sibling. If I let out his secrets, I'll be struck by lightning and split into two halves,"

the two sincerely said in unison.

After they finished, an invisible force emerged from their blood essence, and it was the force of Martial

Arts Oath. There was no doubt that they must die if they violated their oaths in the future. They vowed

to be on Ricky's side from now on, where death would be the punishment for treason.

It was the force of supreme enlightenment. A divine-like power was bestowed upon the oath, making it

too sacred to be broken.

Called the Martial Arts Oath, it was the most serious oath for warriors, where severe sanctions lied

ahead. With this oath, even the top warriors in the martial arts world could not resist the force of

supreme enlightenment if they got punished for breaking their oaths. This oath was taken very rarely as

lives would be at risk, so it could be only utilized with pure sincerity.

In particular, the stronger the warrior was, the greater the counterattack of the oath would be. No one

could escape it, even the most powerful warrior of the human race.

Therefore, if Kristen and Tyson took an oath like this, then it evidently proved that both of them opened

their hearts to Ricky already that they were willing to put their lives at stake.

"That's Martial Arts Oath, right? Kristen! Tyson! What are you doing?!" Ricky exclaimed and scolded.

Upon knowing the grave consequences of breaking that sacred oath, he was a bit terrified at what they

did now.

Since he chose to believe both of them, he meant his heart. It was unnecessary for them to make the

most serious oath to prove their hearts. They went too far, in Ricky's eyes. Was he that worthy for their

lives? He felt so honored and grateful at the moment.

Taking the blood essence back in their bodies, Kristen and Tyson declared, "Ricky, we believe you. But

we don't have any secrets to make you trust us. So we made the oath, in hope that you will fully trust

us from this day forward." Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

"You two..." Ricky was too touched to continue what he was saying. It was his greatest reward to have

them as his friends.

"This zone should be the interior of the spiritual space tool you got in the Earth Fire Place, right?"

This time, they curiously looked at the Chaotic Fire Zone, letting go of the oaths they just made. It was

time for them to snap out of it as they still had better things to do ahead.

"No. When I was chased down by the Endless Shadow, the spiritual space tool I got in the Earth Fire

Place had consumed all of its energy already. So it dropped into a deep sleep and couldn't work for

now. I'm not sure when it will recover," Ricky said and shook his head. What he had responded amused

the two once again. The surprise was only getting started now. More surprises would come later on for

the two.

"So we are not in the space tool?"

Kristen and Tyson both exclaimed in too much astonishment.

"Yes, how did you come up with that perception? You are wrong. This zone is inside me. I call it the

Chaotic Fire Zone,"

Ricky said, with excitement in his voice because now, he could finally tell them what his real skills were.

"What? It is inside you? How did that happen?"

the two exclaimed again with synchronized minds. They were surprised again, but not that much

because they were starting to adjust with Ricky's constant revelation.

With more puzzle emanating from their eyes, they indeed could not understand how it had happened.

They were so lost that they didn't know what to respond.

"You can put it this way. Basically, I got the zone in one of my adventures and it went into my body, just

like the spiritual space tool where I can get in and off as I want. But the only difference is that this zone

is way stronger than the spiritual space tool,"

Ricky tried explaining in the most basic way, but how were the judges? Have they understood it

already?

"Although I still don't understand it, we shouldn't think about it. We just need to know that you have

such a safe zone in your body. That's it," Kristine responded as she cooled down. To her, there was no

point of dwelling on others' life.

"Ha-ha. Exactly. We will turn to you when we are in danger!"

Tyson joked. "But you can't turn us down at that time," he added seriously.

"Aha, no problem. You have my word. Whenever it may be. You can stay as long as you want,"

Ricky replied jovially, making the other two smile in relief.

......

Afterward, they gradually calmed down and thought about what to do later. The innate spiritual king

was still out there, waiting for them. The fight had yet to end.

"Ricky, aren't we going to stay in your zone like this later? It's a good defense if we hid like this," Tyson

wondered, "But in that case, when the opportunity to become an innate spiritual king appears, I am

afraid there will be nothing we can do."

"Of course not. We must fight the innate spiritual king. It is for our own selves. If we defeat that, we will

be stronger. We must improve our power so that we can compete with others."

Ricky continued and this time, he became more serious, "So we are going to Devil Beast Valley to

cultivate ourselves."
