Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1574 No Match For Darren

The violent tremors continued and Lord Starry Sword's and Lord Feng's faces shifted to masks ofseriousness.

Splash...

A sound like rippling water echoed through the dark space.

Lord Starry Sword narrowed his eyes in focus, and scanned the area vigilantly, ready to remove theseal of god's power at a moment's notice.

Lord Feng was on high alert, slowly moving closer to Darren with the readiness to protect him ifneed be.

Suddenly streaks of dull yellow light beamed out of the darkness.

Startled, Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng darted their eyes here and there, looking for the source ofthe light. What they saw shocked and confused them. They could hardly believe it.

The source of the streaming light was Darren!

"What's the matter with Darren? What's going on?" Lord Feng was now an image of nervousness.However, Lord Starry Sword seemed relaxed and said, "Let's just wait and see, and not get ahead ofourselves."

Boom! Boom!

With a bang, the huge column of light that radiated from Darren gushed towards the deepest partof the darkness. In the blink of an eye, the ray of light had burst through the passageway andentered the Archean void.

In the land of the Archean world, countless pairs of breathtaking eyes looked upon the terrifyinglight that had appeared seemingly out of nowhere.

"Heavenly Destiny Body!"

"Where is it? Where is that light coming from?"

"Who is it?"

The powerful cultivators of the Archean world were engaged in a heated discussion about the shaftof light they were all seeing.

Whoosh, whoosh...

From every direction, extremely powerful beings rushed out. From the dark depths of the sea to theterrifying forbidden areas, to the bloody hells, they were coming from all over. They were theHeavenly Destiny Emperors of the Archean Age.

In the passage to the relic,

Darren stood in silence as the light emitting off of him slowly faded and his glowing came to a stop.He stretched as if he was feeling out his body and only just discovering it now. "Something feelsdifferent. What? Why are you staring at me like that?"

He noticed their grave and worried expressions and his heart sank with guilt. Did they replace out thathe had gotten a bigger purple crystal and wanted to beat him up again?

"Ahem, it was an accident, I swear! That crystal flew into my hand all on its own,” Darren saidhurriedly. He was telling the truth; he had not dared fly over to it.

"Darren, has your cultivation base improved? Have you managed to condense any Chaotic Nebula?"asked Lord Feng pensively.

He and Lord Starry Sword had just felt an aura of a horrifyingly powerful proportion. It felt much likethe pressure of the chief gods.

Darren checked his elixir field in a panic. What he found astounded him; so much so, he could notbring himself to speak for a while

"Well, have you condensed it?" Lord Feng pressed again.

Darren nodded dully in response, still not totally himself yet.

"How many pieces of the Chaotic Nebulae did you condense?"

"There aren't any.” Darren had finally come to his senses. "But, there are black vortexes, nine intotal.”

"Nine black vortexes? What are you talking about?" Neither Lord Feng nor Lord Starry Swordunderstood what those were or what he meant.

"What about your cultivation base? Has it improved at all?"

Darren investigated himself again and replied, "I am now at the Sea-exploring Realm. But somethingdoesn't feel right with the Archean power that I've produced. It's quite strange.”

"Okay, just stop talking. I have no idea what you're saying. Lord Starry Sword, come on!" Lord Fengcalled out.

Before Darren could react, Lord Feng and Lord Starry Sword had already flashed beside him.Boom!

Boom!

They both burst into attack mode, directing their strikes at Darren at the same time, using theirstrongest Archean power with a combination of spear and sword skills.

This piqued the interest of the Rule Soul Avatar, who was busy searching for the exit. His silvery eyeslit up and he quietly observed the battle from a distance.

Darren realized right away that they were trying to put his Archean power to the test.

"Blade and Sword Defense,"

Darren shouted as he waved his blade and sword. His Archean power turned into blade intent andsword intent and wrapped around his weapons.

Perfectly synchronized blade and sword maneuvers slashed, one after the other.

In an instant, a storm of strikes raged. Light shot out and deafening explosions boomed allthroughout the dark space.

"Huh!"

Lord Feng and Lord Starry Sword's combined attacks were disintegrated with ease by Darren'ssword and blade strikes, forcing the two of them dozens of kilometers back.

But it was far from over.

They charged back rapidly, almost instantaneously. Their spear and sword shadows packed densely,finally integrating into each other and forming one complementary strike.

Darren watched the approaching merging sword and spear with its endless power and closed hiseyes calmly.

His sword and blade glided, slashed and floated as he willed them to

His body spun like a tornado and darted like a flaming arrow.

Bang! Bang!

They collided in a flash.

Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng were sent flying back by the blow.

"Good job!" Lord Feng praised.

Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth and his aura was a little disheveled and out of order.But he looked at Darren with nothing but pride and joy.

Lord Starry Sword in turn nodded with satisfaction.

Darren's talent was truly amazing. After such a short period of cultivation, even the two lords hadbeen defeated.

He was so powerful it seemed clear that the Rule Soul Avatar was now no match for him either."Ha ha," Darren chuckled happily.

He was pretty excited and impressed with himself as well. He flew to their sides.

"I thought I was nothing before, compared to you guys. Now it seems my body is a little moreadvanced than yours, ha ha."

"Don't be so smug,” Lord Feng snapped before going on, "It's just because you stole two bigcrystals. Things might be different if we had gotten them.”

"Well then, what about this? I have another one here. Try it!"

Darren produced a purple crystal as big as a millstone from his Space Ring as he spoke.

Lord Feng's face darkened, "Just how many crystals have you hidden, brat?

Good on you. Now hand it over!" He grabbed the purple crystal from Darren and began to cultivate.When he had finished, there was still only a Chaotic Nebula in his elixir field. His cultivation levelhad, however, increased at least a little. He was now about to enter the Fate Realm of Archean Age."Cultivating in the Archean Age is too easy. Give me a hundred years and I will reach the EternityRealm smooth and effortlessly,” Lord Feng said confidently.

"It might not be that easy,"

interjected the Rule Soul Avatar as he flew over.

"This crystal is the most valuable treasure of the Archean Age. It helped you successfully condensethe Chaotic Nebula, and so your realm improved quite quickly,” he added.

"Yes, he's right," agreed Lord Starry Sword flatly.

The purple crystal was how they were able to boost their cultivation base so fast. This was because itcontained a sizeable amount of highly pure Archean energy.

"How was your search? Have you found the exit, my avatar?" asked Darren, shifting theconversation.

"Thanks to the powerful beam of light that burst from your body, I have indeed found a way out,"the Rule Soul Avatar revealed.

He had thought it would take dozens of years to replace the exit. But when he used his Spirit Power tofollow the shaft of light erupted from Darren's body, he soon discovered the right path thatstretched out of the passageway.

Their way out was on the back side of the space where they were.

"Let's get a move on out of here. Moving further into the relic will do us no good.”

“Alright.”

The Rule Soul Avatar then led them up through the darkness on a strange, complex route.
