CHAPTER 1245 COMPREHENDING IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION

"Good. Let's see what tricks you have." Now that Caleb had dispelled the power, Darren was less

anxious as the fight would be fair.

However, the situation upset the Gambling King. He frowned and muttered, "Damn it! That old guy has

dissipated my god's power!"

In doing so, he had increased the chances that the Gambling King would lose. He was furious at the

prospect of having to surrender hundreds of millions of killing points if Darren won.

"Please calm down, Maxwell!" At this time, King Winfred turned and smiled at him.

"What?"

"If I want a share of your profit, I have to contribute, right?"

The Gambling King stared at King Winfred for a while as he tried to figure out his intended meaning.

Finally, he laughed and said, "You are so smart. You are also a hypocrite who likes money as much as

you value your life."

"Yes, if you say so. I'm determined to get my share of these killing points."

"Okay." The Gambling King nodded before he continued, "I appreciate the thought. So, tell me, what

are you going to do?"

"It's easy. Since this is my arena, it's easy for me to help Caleb enhance his level without others finding

out." That said, King Winfred swept his gaze across the arena.

"How is that possible? Your divine weapon has the powerful Balance Law." The Gambling King knew

enough about this divine weapon and what it could do. He was also aware of the power of the Balance

Law. Other people couldn't change the rule that governed it.

"Ha-ha, I learned a lot in the years that I have controlled it. If I can't make this little change, wouldn't I

be a loser? Don't worry. I am certain that I can help Caleb to enhance his realm to the top level of the owns this.

Domain God Realm. In this way, it will be hard for him to lose."

"Well, it would appear as though you control everything today—the arena, the outcome of the bet, and

both of our futures. If you fail, I won't be merciful."

On the arena, Darren and Caleb were ready to fight.

"You start!" Darren graciously offered.

"Humph!" Caleb folded his palms before his chest and mumbled something. Then blood spurted out of

his mouth and stained his whole body red.

"The Blood Sacrificing Belligerence?"

Darren had seen such a state on a disciple of the Xiling Clan called Pollard.

"That is correct. You are the first one to force me to use our clan's unique skill," Caleb said calmly.

Confidence was written all over his face as if he had already won.

"Caleb, I advise you to reconsider. Using this Blood Sacrificing Belligerence might help you win, but it

will also kill you as your blood essence will be exhausted. Am I right?" Darren urged.

"Boy, my bloodline is not ordinary. Once I activate the Blood Sacrificing Belligerence, at worst, I will

suffer some internal injuries. I only need to rest for half a year to recover."

"Oh, I see. Then let's fight!"

Darren didn't say anything more and released his attacks on Caleb.

Bang! Bang! Bang...

The god's power surged violently and emitted such a dazzling light that it covered everything. People

outside the arena could not watch what was happening, except for the two kings, who could see the

battle through their god's sense.

"Too bad! There is no sign that the boy is going to lose!"

When the two kings saw the bloodline skill used by Caleb, they felt that victory would soon be in his

grasp. After a round of fierce fighting, they were surprised to find that Caleb did not hold an absolute

advantage.

An hour passed, and the whole mountain shook from the impact of the battle. However, the outcome

was still undecided.

"Darren is in danger."

Murphy, who had been watching the battle silently, could not help but worry.

The blood essence in Caleb's body was so abundant that he could maintain his belligerence for a long

time and be at his most powerful state for the entire duration. On the other hand, Darren's combat

strength declined significantly, the longer he consumed his god's power. The injuries he sustained also

added to his exhaustion.

If the two continued to fight like this for long, Darren would lose.

Of course, this was what the Gambling King and King Winfred expected to see. This way, they wouldn't

have to risk their reputation by plotting against Darren.

On the arena

Darren went all out to defend and attack repeatedly. But, he couldn't defeat Caleb, who had activated

the Blood Sacrificing Belligerence.

"Boy, my Blood Sacrificing Belligerence is not related to my realm, and its strength will not be affected

because my realm has been degraded. You cannot win!

But, I have to admit that I underestimated you before. With your realm, it is rare for you to have such

impressive strength." Caleb spoke as though he had already won.

"Don't be so arrogant. Victory isn't yours yet!"

Darren used all his weapons and exerted all kinds of skills simultaneously to increase his odds.

However, although he did not admit defeat, he knew that he was doomed.

"No, I must win!" Darren did not want to lose. He could not afford to lose as the consequences would

be dire. He would never become someone else's slave!

"I have no choice. I must comprehend it." After careful consideration, Darren felt that the only way he

could win was to comprehend the second move of the supreme sword skill.

Unfortunately, that meant he would have to do it while he fought Caleb.

It was very risky, but it was his only chance to win.

Without further delay, he split a strand of soul power from his soul, which then entered the Void Space.

The first of the six steps already had his soul shadow on it.

The wisp of his soul flew past the first step and prepared to advance to the second step.

Supported by his previous experience, Darren triggered the terrifying sword intent of the second step

and began to observe and comprehend.

However, the challenge was much greater this time, because, in reality, Darren was still fighting Caleb.

No one had tried to comprehend a complicated martial arts skill during a fight. Typically, it would only

be a burden, and the warrior who attempted to do so would die faster.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Darren was distracted while comprehending the sword intent. As a result, his power declined again.

After several rounds of fighting, Caleb managed to throw him into the air. Excruciating pain coursed

through Darren, and he spat blood.

But, Darren wasn't fazed. His soul was undisturbed, completely immersed in mediation.

"It's so difficult..."

A moment later, Darren felt as though the sword intent was too complicated. He had no idea where to

even begin.

"Was I wrong to choose to comprehend it?" Darren's resolution began to shake.

"No, this is my only chance!" Although self-doubt flashed through his mind, he shook off the negative

thoughts and concentrated on comprehending the sword intent again.

In reality, Darren was severely injured from Caleb's repeat attacks. As a result, he became weaker and

weaker.

At best, Darren could hold out for another fifteen minutes. After that time, he would be defeated.

"Boy, why don't you beg for mercy?" At this moment, Caleb was confident that Darren posed no threat

to him and he would surely win the duel.

Darren's face was as cold as ice, and he remained silent. He was so emotionless that he resembled a

man made of metal.

"Humph! Don't worry. I won't kill you because you are a Defiant Master. I will force you to submit to me

and be my slave forever."

At this time, Caleb put his guard down and stopped attacking Darren cruelly.

'I understand now!'

Darren, who had been immersed in comprehending the sword intent, seemed to have made some

progress.

'Ha-ha! It turns out that I have to run the sword intent from the first step in reverse, and then alternate

between regular and reverse use...'

Having stumbled across this realization, Darren released his own sword intent and practiced according

to the trajectories he had figured out.

Once, twice...

After practicing dozens of times, Darren successfully infused the sword intent of the second step into

his existing sword intent.
