Nobilis of War
Chapter 1161 Divine Patterns

Olivia flew forward as soon as Darren appeared.

"Are you waiting for me?" Darren asked coldly.

"Do you believe that I would not dare to kill you just because he took you as his disciple?" It was apparent from her tone that she still held a grudge against Darren for his refusal to be her daredevil.

"I know you dare, but you can't." A smirk tugged at the corners of Darren's lips as he replied.

"You must be joking. Enlighten me. Why can't I kill you?" Olivia's beautiful features were marred by the sneer that appeared on her face.

"Because you are not strong enough," Darren replied with a shrug.

"How dare you? I will kill you!"

Olivia seethed. The killing intent in her eyes scattered, and a red ribbon shot out from her waist.

Unfazed, Darren readied himself to give the ribbon a backhand slap.

However, the red ribbon was like a living thing.

It dodged Darren's attack and started to twine around his arms like a snake.

Once he was bound, Olivia morphed into a red light and rushed at him.

Shoop! Shoop! Shoop!

God-level blade and sword intents transformed into several white blades and swords and formed a protective shield around Darren.

"What?"

However, as Olivia approached Darren, the powerful sword and blade aura stopped her, and she didn't dare to kill him.

It was known to all that Olivia was a low-level domain god, which meant that she was stronger than Darren by two levels. Even so, Darren's god-level blade and sword intents still oppressed her, and she could not attack him head-on. It was apparent that the power of Darren's god-level blade and sword intents had increased significantly.

While unleashing the god-level blade and sword intents, Darren mobilized his black god's power to attack the red ribbon that had entangled his body.

After struggling for a while, he broke the Shackle Law that was attached to the red ribbon.

The red ribbon scattered in the air.

"There has been a significant increase in your strength!" Olivia exclaimed as she hovered mid-air and recalled her red ribbon.

"And that is why you can't kill me." Darren was not afraid of her. He believed that if they fought, he had at least a fifty percent chance of winning. "Really?"

Hearing this, Olivia's killing intents intensified.

"How can you be so confident? Perhaps you've never witnessed the power of the divine pattern. Right?"

"The divine pattern?" Darren had not heard about it.

As soon as Olivia finished speaking, a golden triangle-like object glowed in her arms.

"Darren, you are no match for her." The dragon ancestor conveyed through his spiritual sense.

"Because she has that triangle?" Darren asked with furrowed brows. Since he had never encountered such an object before, he had no idea of its abilities.

"Yes, it's a level-three divine pattern inlaid in her body. If I'm not wrong, it should be a 'penetrating' divine pattern that greatly enhances her offensive ability. Thus, you won't be her match," the dragon ancestor explained.

"Is it so powerful?"

"Indeed, it is. Divine patterns are treasures. They have twelve series, and each series contains a variety of divine patterns that can be divided into twelve levels. Those who get them can greatly enhance their ability according to the divine patterns that they have."

"It sounds very complicated," Darren replied with his spiritual sense.

"It's not that confusing. I'll explain it to you in greater detail when I'm free. For now, let me help you get out of here." The dragon ancestor could help Darren to kill Olivia. As he was aware that Olivia was the daughter of the white-haired man, who was extremely powerful, he knew that he couldn't afford to offend him now. So, he only planned to force her to retreat.

"Howl!"

A mighty dragon roar pierced the air. Even Olivia, who had triggered her divine pattern, was thrown backward.

After composing herself, Olivia returned to Darren's side. She glared at him in disbelief.

"You lied to me before!"

At the time of Owen's death, Darren had said that a treasure rune passed down from his ancestors had triggered the dragon power he had used. But now, he had used the power again. So, she knew that he had deceived her.

"I never said that I only have one rune. There is no point in talking about this anymore. Since you can't kill me, I advise you to retreat as soon as possible," Darren said.

"You're smart." Olivia was furious, but she had no choice but to leave.

Darren found the cave where Elsa was.

He gently woke her from her cultivation.

"Darren."

When Elsa saw her husband, she was so happy that she threw her arms around him.

She leaned against Darren's chest and reveled in the warmth he emitted. Darren reached out and stroked her hair tenderly. Then he held her in his arms and lowered his head to give her a deep kiss. Three days later, Darren and Elsa flew out of the cave together.

Cloud Forest Sect's area was not very large. It was only three hundred kilometers in diameter, but it housed over ten thousand disciples.

"Sir, could you tell me more about the divine patterns that you had mentioned earlier?" Darren asked as he and Elsa rested on a green field. "You finally question me about it.

Divine patterns are unique to the Primitive Wilderness. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to get them. They are formed in two ways. Although some are created in nature, they are found in dangerous places. Others are condensed in the bodies of certain powerful creatures. After killing those creatures, one can acquire a fragment of the divine pattern. Then, through special refining, these fragments can be converted into a divine pattern and worn by a warrior.

Divine patterns are divided into twelve series and include attack divine patterns, penetrating divine patterns, accelerating divine patterns, and defensive divine patterns. Each set contains many types of divine patterns that can be classified into twelve levels. Generally speaking, level-nine divine patterns are priceless treasures and are hard to obtain even by a superior god. Only the supreme gods, or the legendary chief gods of the abysses and hells, can have them."

Many questions flashed through Darren's mind upon hearing this explanation.

"What kind of powerful creatures are you talking about? Why can't the humans in the Primitive Wilderness have the divine pattern fragments?" Darren inquired.

"I don't know why, but excluding humans, all other powerful races have innate divine patterns." The dragon ancestor's answer surprised Darren.

"Who are the supreme gods and chief gods you just mentioned?" Darren asked curiously.

"Supreme gods are the most powerful beings of the human race, while the chief gods are the most powerful ones in the Abyss or the Flaming Hell. Neither you nor I can imagine how powerful they are. Since I don't know much about them, you can explore and learn more about them in the future," the dragon ancestor replied.

"Well, I see. So when my cultivation base improves a little, I can try to get some divine patterns." A plan began to form in Darren's mind.

"Don't act recklessly. The human race is inferior to other races in the Primitive Wilderness. If you kill a member of any race, you will be charged with a crime. Don't be greedy." The dragon ancestor reminded him.

"Ha-ha, I am aware of that. I know what I'm doing." Darren laughed.

"You! Come here."

During his conversation with the dragon ancestor, a young man appeared and shouted at Darren.

He ignored the rude man and continued to enjoy the sunshine with Elsa.

"Darren Chu, come here!"

Irritated by his indifferent attitude, the young man roared.

"Are you playing deaf? Brat, the Third Elder asked me to summon you. How dare you pretend not to hear me?" The agitated young man flew toward them.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
