Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 712 The Celestial Army

"Scar, do you happen to know about the Celestial Army?” Ricky asked as he believed that Scar had more experience and knowledge than him.

"I'm sorry, Ricky. I have no idea what this so-called Celestial Army is," Scar said, shaking his head. "But, as far as I know, there isn't any Celestial Army among the powerful forces.”

"Tina, have you ever heard of it?" Ricky then turned to ask Tina.

"I haven't either," Tina answered in negative, shaking her head as well.

But another fact was that both Henry and Scar were quite curious about Tina. That was because even though Tina was only a demi-immortal, Ricky seemed to treat her very politely. The regard that he showed towards her was as if he didn't view her as his lover but as another warrior at the same level.

Besides, Ricky always turned to Tina in the end when all his options fell apart and he had a question He truly believed that Tina was always able to give him the best answer.

However, Ricky didn't introduce Tina to them properly at his own accord, so neither Henry nor Scar felt comfortable to inquire about her information.

'lt seems that there is no such force in the Middle Land, ' Ricky wondered to himself. 'Or maybe it is a newly-established force, which is why Tina has never heard of it."

"Ricky, we don't need to care about the Celestial Army. The Realm of Wildness is our territory. Now that they have come here, they are invading our territory. We have no option but to fight and beat them," Soar declared resolutely in a firm voice.

"You're still so reckless, Soar. We know nothing about the Celestial Army, and with such ignorance, it seems that we can't beat them without losses of our own. That being the case, how can we begin fighting against them right now?" Ricky reasoned with him

Realizing that his proposal was denied by Ricky relentlessly, Soar pursed his lips in a grimace. "Henry, tell us something else about them,” Ricky then said to Henry.

"Actually, there are not many members in the Celestial Army. According to Scar's attendants, the whole army included just one completed spiritual king, two upper spiritual kings, five middle spiritual kings and about ten lower spiritual kings,” Henry answered.

"Not many? Henry, there are eighteen spiritual kings! How can you say there are not many?" Soar exclaimed in surprise as soon as Henry finished speaking.

Not only Soar but Ricky and Scar also fixed their eyes on Henry speechlessly. In their opinion as well, there seemed to be quite many spiritual kings in the Celestial Army.

"All right. There are quite a few spiritual kings, whole eighteen of them," Henry relented when he saw the surprise and doubt in their eyes.

"What about other members?” Ricky continued to ask.

At the moment, Ricky started to feel that it might be really difficult to fight against the Celestial Army. Although there was only one completed spiritual king, but there were eighteen spiritual kings in total. For the time being, Ricky didn't think he had enough strength to look down upon any spiritual king.

"All the remaining members of the Celestial Army are warriors from the Realm of Wildness," Henry said. "After coming here, the Celestial Army has recruited some of these warriors to work for them. At present, a group of members of the Celestial Army, led by a spiritual king, are keeping watch on all the well-known forces in the whole Realm of Wildness. That was why Scar's attendants failed to convey any messages to us.”

"So that explains it," Scar said while nodding his head on hearing Henry's explanation.

"If that's the case, Henry, it's not time to go back yet," Ricky said.

"The Celestial Army may not pay attention to warriors under the innate level, but they must have kept watch on warriors at the innate level. Therefore, for the time being, all the innate spiritual kings in the Realm of Wildness are under the control of the Celestial Army," Henry said.

"In such a case, how can we act?" Ricky asked solemnly.

"Ricky, I heard some news that may help us make a breakthrough,” Henry answered.

"Just tell us already!" Ricky said, some excitement coming back to him.

"A contest will be held by the Celestial Army in ten days. Other spiritual kings can also participate in this contest. In the end, the top five spiritual kings will be recruited as a full member of the Celestial Army," Henry explained.

"It sure sounds like a good opportunity,” Ricky said, nodding his head in approval.

"Perhaps this contest also involves the purpose of these members of the Celestial Army in coming here," Scar said after thinking for a while.

"Maybe we will know after staying here for another ten days," Ricky also responded.

"So, who among us will take part in this contest?” Henry put forth the burning question.

"Of course I will. Even if they find out who I am, I'm sure I will be able to escape despite that completed spiritual king being part of their army,” Ricky said determinedly.

"Okay. I believe if that's what you think,” Henry said, nodding his head.

"So for the next ten days, we have to hide ourselves. Let's wait and find more about the Celestial Army ten days later,” Ricky said.

Then Tina operated the airship into a secret place on the mountain. They began waiting for the contest that was to be held in ten days.

Of course Ricky would not spend this whole time to just idle about. He had to make a breakthrough and become a second-class middle spiritual king in just the ten days.

He had accumulated enough strength in the land of legacy. The after-effects he had suffered from absorbing the blood vitality in the Devourer Zone twice had already been removed when he bathed in the pond of original at the ancestral land of the Massacring Holy Ant tribe.

As a result, it was not difficult for him to make this huge leap at the moment.

He had planned to make this breakthrough at the Oriental College. But things hadn't gone on as he had expected. He had to give up his plan because of Scar's message.

He knew quite a lot about the spiritual kings in the Realm of Wildness. He was sure that he would be one of the top five when he made this breakthrough and became a second-class middle spiritual king.

Then he intended to go to the Chaotic Fire Zone for cultivation. But of course, he told Scar and Henry that he was going to the spiritual space tool instead for cultivation.

To his surprise, right at the moment when he decided that, Soar telepathically told him to go to the Chaotic Fire Zone as well, saying that Alva knew something about the Celestial Army and wanted to tell him

In the Chaotic Fire Zone, Alva emerged out of Soar's body.

"Alva, do you know the Celestial Army?" Ricky asked, looking forward to hearing some good news. "Yes, I do. But I'm not sure if the Celestial Army I know has anything to do with the Celestial Army here because it seems that there is a big gap between the two. The weakest members of the Celestial Army I know are spiritual emperors, while the stronger members could dominate a whole continent. I believe. They are totally different from the Celestial Army here,” Alva answered.

"What? The weakest members of the Celestial Army are spiritual emperors?” Ricky asked in disbelief. Soar was also greatly surprised to hear what Alva had said.

It took some time for Soar and Ricky to calm themselves down.

"Alva, please tell us what the Celestial Army you know is like," Ricky prodded, curious to know more. "Master Ricky, there are four continents in the world—Pure East, Bleak West, Misty South and Vast North. And we're in the continent of Misty South,” Alva explained.

"I learned this from the archives in Oriental College,” Ricky said, nodding his head, gesturing to Alva to go on.

"In fact, in addition to the four continents, there is another region in the universe that we live in. That place is called the Celestial Land, where the holy beings live,” Alva continued.

"What? The Celestial Land? Holy beings?!" Ricky and Soar repeated the key words in Alva's explanation in unison. They were dumbstruck. They simply could not believe what they had just heard.
