CHAPTER 1061 REVISITING THE RIVER OF FORGETFULNESS

After the old blue-skinned men escaped, Darren flew to the forbidden domain in the Space-time

Palace. The stream that flowed under the forbidden domain was the only way to the River of

Forgetfulness.

Boom!

Darren pounded the ground with his palm. A split second later, his figure began to sink.

"Master, wait for me." The Water Kylin didn't hesitate to follow Darren. Not one to be left behind, the

ever-curious Barnes trailed after them.

Darren searched for the stream with his spiritual sense as he passed through the burning magma.

"Darren, how do you discover the location of the River of Forgetfulness?" Barnes asked. They had

been silently flying through the magma for a while, and he couldn't take the quietness anymore.

"I chanced upon it by accident," Darren replied calmly.

"You are so lucky," Barnes exclaimed repeatedly.

"What?" Darren's brow furrowed when he heard Barnes's reply. Puzzled, he turned and asked, "Why

do you say so?"

"From ancient times to the present, there have been legends of the River of Forgetfulness, but no one

has ever found it. It is said that there are incredible treasures inside. When I was at my peak, I had

searched everywhere for it. I found many remains and great treasures during my explorations, but I

didn't discover the location of the River of Forgetfulness," Barnes explained.

"Really? The River of Forgetfulness has treasures? So we will have the chance to retrieve them?" The

Water Kylin smiled.

"It's just a rumor. You shouldn't believe everything you hear. But, even if there were treasures, your little

strength would be insufficient," Barnes squinted as he replied to the Water Kylin.

"Ahem, even though I can't collect them, my master can. He is powerful. Don't underestimate us." The

Water Kylin was quite unhappy with Barnes' insinuation that he was weak.

"Little brat, you have witnessed my strength before. How dare you speak so rudely? Aren't you afraid of

being beaten?" Barnes sneered.

"Fuck off, you damn monkey! My master is here. How dare you threaten me?"

"Just you wait!"

Barnes was beside himself when the Water Kylin didn't apologize. He prepared to teach the legendary

beast a lesson!

"Stop it," Darren shouted as annoyance coursed through him. "Monkey, tell me. What kind of treasures

are hidden in the River of Forgetfulness?"

"How would I know?" Barnes rolled his eyes. "When we find the treasures, we'll know."

"Ha-ha." Darren curled his lips. "That is easier said than done. Last time I came here, I encountered the

immortal."

"You must be kidding!" Barnes shouted. So astonished was he that his black hair stood up. "How dare

you go to the River of Forgetfulness when you know she is there?"

The immortal was a supreme being with absolute strength. Barnes had never thought of competing

with the immortal, not even when he was at his peak.

"What? Are you afraid?" Darren asked with a smirk.

"It's not about being afraid. Why would you travel somewhere when you know there is an invincible

master? Do you wish for death?" Barnes sneered. After weighing the pros and cons, a cold smile

appeared on his face. He thought the choice was rational.

"Then, you can return." Darren turned around and continued to look for the stream. The Water Kylin ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

glared at Barnes before dutifully following his master.

Barnes stopped to deliberate over whether or not he should follow Darren. Finally, curiosity and greed

won, and he decided he was not going to leave.

After searching for three consecutive days, Darren finally detected the existence of the stream. He

broke through the restriction and arrived at the edge of the stream.

The stream flowed quietly, suggesting that it had been there for years.

"Darren, since you've dared to come here, do you have other powerful people to accompany you?"

Barnes finally asked after a long silence.

"You are powerful. I can rely on you, right?" Darren smiled as he glanced at Barnes.

"Bah, don't talk nonsense. Be honest. What do you want to do in the River of Forgetfulness? Have you

discovered the treasures?" Barnes asked.

"I don't know about the treasures. But, I have seen one hundred thousand ancient senior holy

warriors."

"One hundred thousand ancient senior holy warriors?" Barnes was astonished. "How could that be

possible? How could so many ancient senior holy warriors live from ancient times till now?"

"I don't know, but I have seen them. I won't lie to you,"

Darren remarked as he continued to follow the stream.

Soon, they came across a wide river that seemed to flow through a starry sky.

"Here we are."

Darren stopped by the river and looked into the distance.

"This is incredible! It is flowing in the void!" the Water Kylin exclaimed.

Barnes was stunned as he studied the river.

"There are restrictions here."

"Yes, you are correct. There are eighteen layers of restrictions in total."

"How can we go through them?" Barnes asked.

"There is no need to go through the restrictions."

"Why? Then what are we doing here?" Barnes couldn't understand why Darren had brought them to

the River of Forgetfulness if he didn't intend to cross over.

"I just come to see someone." With that, Darren continued to fly forward until he reached the first

restriction.

Instead of going through the restriction, Darren probed for that figure, the cold figure.

But after searching for a while, when Darren did not find the figure, complex emotions surged in his

heart.

"Are you still here, sir?"

Darren had come here in search of the witcher ancestor.

"You've returned to see me." A hoarse voice echoed in Darren's mind.

Darren was thrilled. He said, "Yes, sir. Could you come out and meet me, sir?"

"Why did you bring Barnes with you? Don't let him know that I am still alive." The witcher ancestor

refused to show himself.

"What? Why?" Darren asked, perplexed.

"You can't let anyone know who I am. Find a way to elude Barnes and the Water Kylin, and then I'll call

you over."

"Okay."

Although deeply mystified by the witcher ancestor's behavior, Darren did not ask more questions.

Instead, he went to Barnes and the Water Kylin.

"Monkey, you are a strong cultivator. Please help me break through these restrictions."

"Ha-ha! Didn't you say that you were powerful? Are you begging me for help now?" Barnes sneered.

"Don't talk nonsense. From what I can sense, the immortal is no longer here. No one else is a match

with you. Don't you want to see what's hidden behind these restrictions? Don't you want to meet those

ancient senior holy warriors?" Darren lured.

"Well, you're right. I'd like to see what secrets are hidden in the River of Forgetfulness!" Since Barnes

was intrigued by the rumors about the River of Forgetfulness, he agreed to help Darren.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Barnes attacked the first restriction fiercely with his black stick. Since he now had the strength of a holy

emperor, the first restriction was no challenge to him.

"That was easy." Barnes was satisfied with his current strength.

"Then you can continue. I believe there is enough spiritual energy here for me to cultivate. I'll go and

practice for a while. Call me when you get through," Darren instructed.

"What?" When Barnes heard this, he felt as though something was wrong. Why would Darren come all

the way here only to leave before they broke through the restrictions?

"Water Kylin, either you help the monkey, or you come and cultivate with me." Darren ignored Barnes'

outburst and calmly instructed the legendary beast.

"Ha-ha, I'm not as diligent as you. It's boring to cultivate. I'd rather follow the monkey and ensure that

he doesn't claim the treasures for himself," the Water Kylin smiled as he refused.

"Well then, that's your choice," Darren said as he looked away. Disappointment laced his tone.

The doubts in Barnes' heart dispelled when he heard their exchange. The Water Kylin was Darren's

most loyal subordinate. He would not play any tricks if he left the Water Kylin with Barnes.

After three days, Barnes broke through the second restriction.

At this point, Darren sank to the bottom of the river, and a black swirl enveloped him.

Soon, Darren appeared in front of the witcher ancestor.

"Darren, you are growing so fast." A hint of astonishment reflected in the witcher ancestor's expression.

Darren smiled faintly.

"What do you want from me?" the witcher ancestor asked.

"Phew!" Darren breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I have a lot of questions for you."
