The legendary warrior

"You can't continue cultivating like this. At this rate, you will take most of the fortune of the Helian Clan's ancestral land in three months. The original energy in an ancestral land has to be kept within a certain range or the ancestral land will eventually deteriorate, causing the race's fortune to decrease as well.

I'm sure you're aware of that.

After all, more top warriors and excellent casting masters would pop up like mushrooms if the ancestral land's original energy were infinite.

Don't forget that you're in my debt. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been able to enter here, work on your holy runes and reinforce your casting level,"

the Casting Ladder firmly reminded Ricky when the latter tried to play dumb.

"Sir, so it is you who just spoke behind my back," Ricky started.

'I'm sure the Casting Ladder stepped in for me because I doubt the senior members of the Helian Clan would ever allow me to cultivate in their ancestral land...' Ricky continued to reflect inside his mind.

He looked at the Casting Ladder with gratefulness and continued, "Thank you very much, sir. I appreciate it."

"If you really want to thank me, prove it!" the ladder challenged him in return.

"Ha-ha! All right, I won't absorb more original energy of casting. You have my word on that," Ricky finally relented with a smile. The Casting Ladder was right. He was well aware of the importance of the original energy to every ancestral land. The matter was serious enough that the Casting Ladder wouldn't hesitate to throw him out if he kept absorbing the original energy of casting here.

"But sir, I earned the opportunity to cultivate here and that is part of it. Since I am to stop, I can't enjoy my privilege fully, so I hope you'll compensate me.

Perhaps, you can at least give me some advice in casting in the next few days," Ricky said, trying to negotiate.

"Young man, you..." The Casting Ladder was left speechless.

But, in the end, it accepted Ricky's request for the sake of his talent in casting. It wanted to win him over and didn't want to get on his bad side.

For the next two and a half months, Ricky rapidly progressed in casting and acquired a better understanding of the Ancestor Divine Manual under the guidance of the Casting Ladder.

Once he was done cultivating in the Helian Clan's ancestral land, Ricky headed back to the Misty South Palace with Amelia and Olaf.
