CHAPTER 1034 GET THE OPPORTUNITY
Darren realized that he could defeat the skeleton general if he removed his opponent's sword.
The sword was not only powerful, but it was also strange, almost as if it were integrated with the
skeleton general.
"Kill!"
The skeleton general was furious as Darren had killed tens of thousands of his people. He emanated
intense power as he rushed toward Darren.
With gritted teeth, Darren continued to fight the skeleton general. Simultaneously, he contemplated the
best way to defeat his opponent.
"Darren, you can't kill him. His bones are as strong as the iron from outer space,"
advised the dragon ancestor in Darren's heart.
Darren was stunned. He had forgotten the dragon ancestor in his heart. With the dragon ancestor's
help, they could find out the skeleton general's weakness.
"Sir, can you add the dragon blood aura to my body to enhance my strength?" Darren asked.
"You brat! As I'm on the verge of death, how can I spare energy to help you?" The dragon ancestor had
helped Darren several times before, and each time, his injury was aggravated. He couldn't help Darren
anymore.
Bang!
As Darren was distracted, he didn't react quickly enough to dodge the skeleton general's blow.
"Argh!" A painful cry escaped Darren's lips. Then he said to the dragon ancestor, "Sir, the skeleton
general gets his strength from his sword. He can't hurt me if I separate the sword from him. Do you
have any suggestions?"
Darren retreated as he awaited a response to his question.
"It is indeed, powerful. Even if the sword were badly damaged, its strength would match a top-grade
Emperor Weapon. Your dragon body cannot withstand it. But, if the weapon were to break, you might
have a chance," the dragon ancestor said after some contemplation.
"Please continue." Darren was thrilled by what he had heard and was curious to learn more.
"Let me remind you of something. As he had a god's body in the past, your forces can't harm him. Only
laws can hurt him. Since your forces are derived from rules, not laws, you can't injure him. However,
the sword in his hand is an inanimate object. Even if it is a very high-grade weapon, it cannot
distinguish between laws and rules. Do you understand now?" the dragon ancestor explained.
"Are you implying that I can use some means to attack his sword forcibly?" Darren asked.
"That's right. The sword is of a high-grade, but its surface is covered in cracks. It's a broken weapon. If
you use a powerful force to attack it, perhaps you can shatter it!" the dragon ancestor remarked.
"Thank you for your advice!" Hope blossomed in Darren's heart when he heard this.
Now that he had a good idea of what he could do to defeat the skeleton general, Darren returned to his
human form. That way, he could use other skills.
The skeleton general was confused by Darren's transformation.
After morphing into dragon form, Darren's body had become harder, and was hence, more difficult for
him to injure. Why did he change into his human shape? Wouldn't it make it easier for him to kill
Darren?
"Kill!"
The skeleton general charged at him.
Darren knew that his human body wouldn't be able to withstand the blow. And so, he ran as fast as he
could.
Buzz…
The blade and sword intents filled the air and then transformed into dark gold internal force, which
surged toward the skeleton general. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
The dark gold internal force could not harm the skeleton general, just as the dragon ancestor had said.
So it passed through his body. However, Darren found something unusual. When faced with the dark
gold internal energy, the skeleton general protected the sword in his hand.
"Sir, you were correct. The skeleton general took special precautions to protect his sword."
Having confirmed this point, Darren began to plan how to destroy the broken sword in the skeleton
general's hand.
Darren stopped after a short run.
"Skeleton general, if you insist on killing me, I will kill all the people you lead!" Darren announced boldly
with the hopes of distracting the skeleton general.
"Human, how dare you? I will not give you that chance.
Retreat. Everyone, retreat!"
The skeleton general's dry and hoarse voice rang out, and the skeleton soldiers turned into black fog
and dispersed in an instant.
"What?!"
Darren pretended to be surprised and flustered.
"Haw-haw-haw!" The skeleton general laughed and looked at Darren mockingly. "You scumbag! Did
you really believe that you can beat me?"
Darren sneered and glared at the skeleton general with the same disdain. "You are too arrogant. In the
end, you are someone's dog. What right do you have to yell at me?"
"A dog?" The skeleton general didn't understand the meaning of Darren's words.
"Slave. You are someone's slave. What makes you so arrogant, huh?"
"Howl!" Darren seemed to have hit a nerve as the skeleton general was so furious that he released an
agonized howl. Then, black smoke encased his body, and his expression turned fierce.
"Exactly! You are someone's watchdog. What are you so arrogant about?" Darren's tone was laced
with contempt.
"Go to hell!" the skeleton general screeched as he stepped toward Darren.
"Wait!" Darren stopped the skeleton general. Then, he said, "It is a shame to fight with a slave like you.
If you believe you have the ability, let me help you get rid of your identity as a slave. Then we will have
a fair fight."
"What?"
The skeleton general stopped.
"Get rid of my identity as a slave?"
"Well, tell me. Who controls you? Perhaps I can free you," Darren offered.
The skeleton general grinned bitterly.
"He was in the same realm as me in the past. The only difference was that laws didn't suppress him
when he landed on this land. You can't even begin to imagine his strength!" replied the skeleton
general.
"Humph, we don't necessarily have to battle him face to face!"
"No way. You're lying! You are stalling because you are weak." Killing intent filled the skeleton general,
and he charged at Darren.
"Wait!" The skeleton general stopped when he heard Darren's roar.
Darren knew how lonely and unwilling the skeleton general must be after guarding this place for so
many years. How could a powerful person like him submit to people? How could such a powerful man
not be touched when offered the opportunity to remove his status as a slave?
Even if he didn't want to believe, there would be a glimmer of hope deep in his heart.
While Darren was curious about the effect of his proposal, the skeleton general continued to see
Darren as someone who would definitely die. Hence, he could wait for Darren to finish speaking.
"You still want to play tricks?"
"No. I want to prove to you that I can help you be a free man!" Darren said.
The skeleton general was silent for a moment.
"Show me!" The skeleton general decided to let Darren try. Even if Darren were tricking him, the
skeleton general could kill him with ease.
"Okay, just watch."
Darren nodded as he gathered the Shura Force, the Fire and Water Force, the dark gold internal
force…
As his powers converged around him, the space was smashed.
The skeleton general watched cautiously.
"What are you so anxious about? You have a strong body. Are you afraid of being attacked?" Darren
said calmly.
As expected, the skeleton general let down his guard, and Darren got the opportunity he sought.
