Born Almighty Warrior
Chapter 439 Grace's Impressive Change

Looking back on how Ricky had obtained the ultimate dragon meridian, as well as his performances in several life-or-death fights, Elder Evan praised Ricky with mixed emotions.

"So far, not only has Grace surpassed us elders in her cultivation level, but you have made a breakthrough too!" he said.

Later, a great many pieces of Fortune Jades, which were gadgets used to exit the Fortune Land, descended into the area they were in. Kristen, Tyson, and Hoffman each grabbed a piece of Fortune Jade immediately. After they talked for a short while, they crushed their Fortune Jades with their hands and returned to the bases of their forces.

Then, Ricky, Elder Evan, and the others returned to the Misty South Palace in the same way. Knowing they had finally returned, Zenith and Grace, along with several others, promptly came outside to meet them.

They were utterly thrilled to learn about how Ricky had obtained the ultimate dragon meridian. Meanwhile, Grace had caught the attention of Ricky, Elder Evan, and the others.

Grace's aura was completely different than before. She exuded an aura of oneness with nature. She clearly had already become an innate spiritual king, because only warriors at that level were able to get into a state of oneness with nature.

But the way Grace's countenance had changed was what they first noticed about her, not the aura change itself.

Noticeably, the hideous blood-red birthmark on Grace's face had entirely disappeared. Grace's aura was no longer filled with sheer iciness. It had changed so that her iciness and fieriness had mixed together.

Her unsightliness had transformed into elegance; her reddish eyes were emanating uniqueness, and her black hair was mixed with a shade of faint icy red, slightly oozing charm.

The valor and lustiness of her visage differentiated her from both the coquettish and the exceedingly gorgeous type of women. Her haughtiness and intractability in her beauty could inspire a man to want to win her heart.

"Grace, how did you..." Elder Evan started to ask in astonishment.

"Elder Evan, after I became an innate spirit, the birthmark on my face magically disappeared,” Grace said with a genuinely warm smile, instead of a cold smile like before. It was clear that the disappearance of her birthmark had boosted her confidence by a lot.

Women, in general, put a high value on their personal appearance and felt that their worth was judged on it to some extent.

"It seems that my birthmark contained the blood power of fire. After I made a cultivation breakthrough, my birthmark exuded scorching energy, which eventually transformed my icy spiritual meridian into an icy-fiery spiritual meridian,"

Grace explained, flipping her beautiful hand over to exert some icy power mixed with a bit of fiery power.

Meanwhile, Grace built up momentum, exposing a mark of ice and fire that was imprinted between her eyebrows. The mark indicated that she had transformed into a mutant.

"A mutant mark!" Elder Evan and the others exclaimed, staring at Grace's new mark.

Ricky thought to himself in shock, “Master Grace's blood power must be unusually powerful!

"Yes indeed. It's a mutant mark, but I am still puzzled at the nature of my mutant ability. I would like to name this ability the Icy-fiery Mutant power for now," Grace said.

"Master, your hidden blood power was suddenly activated during your fight against Kinsey, so you decided to make a breakthrough in the Fortune Land, right?" Ricky asked.

"Yes, you're right. During the fight, I wasn't able to defend myself against Kinsey's Metallic Mutant attack. I thought I was about to die, but then the unknown blood power in my birthmark was unexpectedly activated and saved me," Grace replied.

"After that, the sudden change of my spiritual meridian triggered a swift surge of its power. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't suppress the increasing power, so I had to make a breakthrough to become an innate spirit," she added.

"I think that it must be the inborn force of your blood power,” Ricky murmured.

"Ha-ha! All in all, our sect, the Misty South Palace, is the biggest winner of the competition in the Fortune Land. For one thing, Grace has become an innate spirit after the activation of her powerful blood power, and for another, Ricky has obtained the ultimate dragon meridian,” Elder Samuel remarked with a cheerful smile.

Nearly everybody burst into delighted laughter when they heard what Elder Samuel said.

However, there was no trace of mirth on Zenith's face, but there were grave misgivings in his eyes instead, which those who were laughing did not notice.

"All right, listen. I want you all to stay alert to any possible upcoming trouble,” Zenith said, calming their excitement. He then added, "It's very likely that there will be some trouble coming here soon Kinsey, Ellison, and Sham were killed by members of our sect, one of whom were Ricky. It's totally possible that Boris and the Endless Shadow will take revenge on us for that.”

Their faces instantly grew solemn after hearing Zenith's admonition. They did not fear a violent confrontation with Boris and his allies, but they absolutely dreaded an attack from the Endless Shadow. The latter was a powerful and petrifying organization of assassins after all.

"Chief Zenith, we understand.” They decided to take a rest before working together to prepare to confront the upcoming danger.

"Ricky, you stay here and come along with me,” Zenith said to Ricky when he saw he was about to leave.

"Yes, Chief Zenith," Ricky responded with a nod.

Then Ricky followed Zenith and they went to Zenith's palace together.

The Misty South Palace had substantially changed after Ricky's return from the Fortune Land. Thanks to Zenith's hard work and dedicated endeavors, the compound of the Misty South Palace got into shape to an extent. It also helped that Zenith was an innate spiritual king.

Now, a cultivation square and a hall had been built there.

Other than that, one aspect still needed improvement—the paucity of disciples. It was rather normal though, since the Misty South Palace was a newly established force. Therefore, warriors still needed to wait and see if it was worthwhile to join it.

"Do you know why I asked you to come here?" Zenith asked in a straightforward way because they were in his personal palace.

The grave misgivings in Zenith's eyes reminded Ricky of Grace's special blood power because it also aroused a slight presentiment in his mind.

"Chief, was that because of Master Grace's blood power?" Ricky asked.

"Yes, exactly. I have been worrying whether her special blood power would be activated or not for a long time. It did happen eventually,” Zenith said in a deep voice while he nodded.

"Chief, what's the matter with Master Grace? Is there anything wrong with her activated blood power?" Ricky inquired anxiously, sensing Zenith's misgivings.

"There is nothing wrong with her special blood power, but it will cause trouble for her once warriors with the same blood power as hers learn about what she can do now," Zenith explained in a somber tone.

"Odin, Grace's father and my best brother, was taken away by some mysterious and strong warriors. Do you know anything about that?"

"Yes, Chief Zenith. Master Grace even sank into despair for a long time because of her father being captured,” Ricky replied with a nod.

"The mysterious and strong warriors are members of the tribe force that Grace's mother belongs to," Zenith revealed. He then added, "Grace's activated special blood power is derived from her mother's tribe."

"The tribe's blood power is very powerful. However, their tribe members are not allowed to procreate with outlanders that are unrelated to them. Disobedience of that tribe rule will cause serious consequences for individuals in violation once found out. That's what I worry about!"

"Chief, I think I understand what you mean,” Ricky murmured. He felt deeply somber and worried after hearing what Zenith said.

"Chief, what tribe is this? How powerful are they?" Ricky asked after a moment.

"They are the Phoenix tribe—the closest descendants of the Vermilion Bird, which is a kind of sacred beast. Have you heard of it?" Zenith said with a rather hopeless sigh, looking up to the sky.
