CHAPTER 182 LEVEL FIVE DEMONIC MONSTER
The noises grew louder and louder.
"These are really the level three demonic monsters!" all of them exclaimed in shock.
Several demonic monsters came into their view.
Even Darren was taken aback when he sensed the strong aura each monster gave off.
Rory had once been beaten up by several level three demonic monsters and lost his consciousness.
Darren knew that these creatures were only slightly weaker than Wonder Realm cultivators.
Darren concentrated his mind and detected that at least over twenty demonic monsters were closing in
on them and one was stronger than a level three demonic monster.
"Elsa, take the ones on the back; Bruce, you're in charge of the left," Darren instructed.
'The demonic monsters move so rapidly that it's entirely impossible for us to run away. We have no
choice but to fight them, ' he thought.
He then dashed towards a demonic monster in front of him.
Hayes stood by his companions as the other three were only at the Mysterious Realm. Based on their
current strength, they would most likely end up being torn into pieces if they battled level three demonic
monsters on their own.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
As Darren kept waving his Purple Thundering Sword, sword intents hit the demonic monster
continuously.
The level three demonic monsters had hard skin. In terms of Darren's battle force, he couldn't slice
through the demonic monster and was only able to leave a few shallow cuts on them.
The one hundred feet tall demonic monster with two horns fiercely growled in pain.
It retaliated by striking its huge hooves at Darren.
The power it released was almost as strong as the blow Bruce gave after he used his bloodline force.
Owing to the fact that he had achieved abnormally high velocity, Darren was able to dodge the demonic
monster's attacks and move freely around it.
He caught a glimpse of Elsa and saw that she had already slain two level three demonic monsters with
her formidable sword intent.
'She's gotten much stronger after she entered the Wonder Realm. I'm weaker than her, ' he thought.
While he had the chance, he assimilated the talent of the demonic monsters Elsa and Hayes killed.
Hayes also observed Darren from time to time. He was astonished by his amazing speed and the
power of the sword intent he had released.
Darren went straight towards the demonic monster he had been fighting for a long while, and flanked it.
He used the sword and blade at the same time at their fullest and struck its neck.
Clang!
He took off the demonic monster's head and knocked its body to the ground.
Exhausted, he started panting. It took him too much energy to take out the level three demonic
monster. Activating the Shadow Lightness had consumed a huge amount of his vital energy.
"Darren is amazing. He put down a level three demonic monster!" exclaimed one of the disciples.
The three disciples who were busy finding a place to hide stopped and marvelled at Darren's strength.
They initially didn't believe that Darren was powerful because they had never seen him in actual battle
before. They only asked him to join them because they knew Darren could probably talk Colin into
activating the transmission array that could transport them here; he was in good terms with Colin, after
all. Darren's performance convinced them that he was as strong as they had heard.
The fight continued.
Two hours later, they wiped out the demonic monsters that had besieged them.
Most of demonic monsters were killed by Elsa and Hayes. Darren tried his best, but only took out three.
He did have a big harvest. After he assimilated the talent of over thirty level three demonic monsters,
his talent had reached the level six of the Earth Degree.
Once a cultivator's talent reached the Earth Degree, even a small upgrade in his talent would greatly
contribute to his power. And now, Darren's talent had been upgraded from the level four directly to the
level six of the Earth Degree. One could imagine how rapidly Darren would be able to progress in
martial arts.
"Curse you people! How dare you murder my people! I will rip you to pieces!" A furious, raspy voice
reverberated throughout the valley.
"Oh, crap," Hayes murmured.
His facial expression changed dramatically.
"Run, guys! It's a level five demonic monster!" he frantically shouted.
If it were a level four demonic monster, which could equal to a cultivator who had just entered the
Wonder Realm, Elsa and Hayes might be able to take it out. It was a level five demonic monster,
however. Even if Elsa and Hayes worked together, they stood no chance of defeating it.
Level five demonic monsters were intelligent creatures that understood human language. Aside from
that, they possessed tremendous power—they were equal to that of human cultivators who were at the
peak of the beginning stage of the Wonder Realm.
"Level five demonic monster?" Darren muttered, his heart skipping a beat due to fear. He couldn't
handle a level four demonic monster by himself, not to mention a level five one.
"Darren, take them out of here. I will stall it for a while." Elsa flew towards Darren and landed beside
him.
Darren felt slightly ashamed of himself for needing to rely on Elsa to protect him.
The level five demonic monster that was able to communicate with humans was taller than an adult
man. It had an ox's face and its whole body was covered in glowing black fur. It was also apparent that
the demonic monster had hard skin too, just like the level three ones.
Seeing Darren and his companions retreating, the level five demonic monster dashed towards the
disciples rapidly and hit one of them.
"Watch out!" Hayes said, then he flew towards the demonic monster to help his companion out.
Elsa unleashed her invincible sword intent and aimed it towards the demonic monster.
"Go help them," Darren shouted at Bruce. exclusive content.
Bruce, who had already activated his bloodline force, had turned into an ancient ape, taller than the
level three demonic monsters. After he heard Darren's voice, he immediately ran towards the level five
demonic monster.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The three people who charged at the level five demonic monster were thrown into the air.
Bruce crashed against the wall of the mountain far away from the demonic monster. Although he was
strong, he was definitely no match for a Wonder Realm cultivator.
Darren felt helpless seeing his friends get hurt. He couldn't just stand there and watch anymore.
However, he didn't come at the demonic monster; he instead sat down cross-legged and began
cultivating.
Now that he had an upgrade in his talent degree, he could master martial skills more efficiently. He
cleared his mind and started to try comprehending the Spectral Chop. This was the only martial
technique that could enhance his power in a short amount of time.
It seemed that reaching the upgrade in talent degree sped up his cultivation in martial arts.
Before he reached the level six of the Earth Degree, Darren had failed to master the second move of
second level of Spectral Chop. But now, he leafed through the martial formula and worked it out in a
minute.
The blade intent became more and more powerful inside his body.
He comprehended the blade intent of the second level of Spectral Chop.
He mastered the second move of Spectral Chop.
Then, he even grasped the blade intent formula of the third level of Spectral Chop.
...
After successfully saving the disciple from the level five demonic monster, Elsa, Hayes and Bruce
battled it again.
However, the demonic monster was way too strong. Hayes took a hit and was thrown into the air again.
Most of his ribs were now broken and he kept coughing blood.
Bruce had been hit and thrown into the air more than once. He had sustained severe injuries and a
number of scales on his body were destroyed.
"Omnipotent Talent Skill—Imprisonment Skill!"
Hayes, although still injured, shot at the demonic monster and used his Omnipotent Talent Skill.
"Do it now, guys! I'm holding it still!" he shouted at Elsa and Bruce. He had adopted the Shackle Rule
into his Omnipotent Talent Skill, making it possible for him to restrain the much more powerful level five
demonic monster. But the stronger his enemy was, the faster his Omnipotent Talent Skill would lose its
effect.
Upon hearing this, Elsa flew towards the demonic monster and waved her sword at it. At the same
time, the severely injured Bruce growled as he bolted towards their enemy.
Elsa and Bruce simultaneously launched their attacks and struck at the demonic monster.
Bruce ended up getting flung backwards. Elsa furrowed her eyebrows in shock; they were only able to
leave a few small scratches on the demonic monster.
The level five demonic monster growled furiously, as it thundered, "You despicable humans! I will kill
you all!"
It stomped on the ground, releasing a terrifying powerful force.
"Shit!" Darren abruptly opened his eyes as he sensed the demonic monster unleashing more and more
power that could destroy everything in the world.
"Omnipotent Talent Skill—Sky Shaking Sword Array!"
At this critical point, Elsa had no choice but to unleash her sword intent that contained invincible power.
