CHAPTER 228 ARRIVING AT TALENT CITY
Darren searched in front of the Black Cliff of Sword Intent for a very long time, and he finally found a
demonic monster cub. From the look of it, it hadn't been born so long ago. But from its aura, Darren
could tell that it was a level six demonic monster.
Knowing that it was still quite a formidable opponent, Darren didn't dare approach the demonic monster
hastily. He knew that if he wasn't careful, he would be torn apart in a flash.
He stayed still, observing the demonic monsters for a very long time. He found that they all appeared to
be very hungry, and they were rooting around for spiritual herbs to eat. They also killed other weaker
demonic monsters and ate them. There was blood everywhere.
The cub that Darren had spotted seemed to be a demonic monster that ate spiritual herbs. Darren
cautiously took out a few superior spiritual herbs to try to draw its attention. He held them out, holding
his breath.
These superior spiritual herbs meant nothing to the powerful demonic monsters. But for a young
demonic monster cub, they were quite enticing.
It looked at the spiritual herbs in Darren's hand, then slowly walked towards him in a stumbling way, like
a chubby little tiger. Looking at its beautiful big watery eyes, Darren couldn't help but soften
immediately. He didn't have the heart to kill it anymore.
"Purr..." The little cub looked at Darren in a curious way, but it couldn't pass the Black Cliff of Sword
Intent as humans did.
So Darren used his fastest speed to take the demonic monster cub out of the Black Cliff of Sword
Intent, in case other powerful demonic monsters would try to attack him.
"Purr." The cub smelled the superior spiritual herbs in Darren's hand, and started jumping around him
in a happy way.
"All right. Just eat the spiritual herbs. After that, I will send you back. I don't have the heart to kill you."
Darren couldn't help but smile warmly when he saw the cub this happy.
Then the demonic monster cub ate the spiritual herbs, and started rubbing its face on Darren's thigh.
All of a sudden, a very dangerous aura appeared before him. Before Darren could register what was
happening, a sharp pain hit him hard. It was from his thigh. He looked down in shock. The cub had
bitten him!
The chubby cub showed its frightening sharp teeth. Its face became dangerous and evil.
"Stupid human! I will eat you alive!" The demonic monster growled frighteningly. Its muscles also
became bigger and stronger. It was no longer the cute cub it had been just now.
'How stupid of me to be fooled by a demonic monster!' Darren immediately took a few steps back. At
the same time, his blade and sword intent burst out.
"You will die!" Darren called forth his eight avatars in the blink of an eye, and used his most powerful
attack on the demonic monster.
The level six demonic monster had been very hungry for quite a while. It just wanted to eat Darren. But
what it didn't expect was that such a small, unassuming human could be extremely powerful.
Before it could understand what was happening, blades and swords pierced its chest. It was a fatal
blow. It growled its last breath.
"Huh. That's good. If you didn't pretend to be a cub, I would have shown my true strength. It's not easy
to kill you." Darren immediately assimilated some spiritual herbs to heal his thigh.
The level six demonic monster had strength nearly as powerful as someone at the middle stage of
Wonder Realm. But it couldn't think as humans did, and it didn't have many skills. It had no chance
once Darren dispatched his unique talents.
He took its demonic monster blood and brought it at once to the Starry Tower.
He didn't waste any time at all, immediately looking for the cauldron he used to refine herbs. Once he
found it, he set it up and began concocting liquid medicine as instructed. Then he jumped in the big
cauldron and submerged himself in it.
After half a month's refining and enduring many great pains, Darren succeeded in organ refining.
Now, his skin, meridians, bones, and organs were all strong and reinforced. An attack from an
adversary at the middle stage of the Wonder Realm couldn't kill him anymore!
"The last step is golden body refining. I have to survive attacks in real fights. The more attacks I
endure, the stronger my body will become. When I get to the limit, I will successfully refine the golden
body." Looking at the scripture, Darren was lost in thought. It meant that the more he fought, the fewer
chances he would have of getting badly hurt, and he would also make his body stronger at the same
time. Of course, this was as long as he didn't fight someone who was way stronger than him and break
the limit his body could take. This belongs to - ©.
"After I successfully refine the golden body, even a powerful martial artist at the top level of the middle
stage of Wonder Realm can't kill me using Omnipotent Talent Skill. I can't wait! I'll also be able to
escape the ones who just acquired the advanced stage of the Wonder Realm!" Daydreaming about
when this day would come, Darren was even more confident in getting on the Talent Roll.
He flew around the countless spiritual herbs, and found many extraordinary specimens among them.
He filled his Space Ring with them before leaving.
Right before departing the tower, he stopped. He couldn't help but wonder what treasures were to be
found on the second floor of the Starry Tower, especially when he sensed a familiar scent. He really
wanted to go up there and see.
...
"Mathew, please send me out." As soon as Darren said these words, Mathew appeared.
"Oh, great job! Refining your body was indeed very beneficial for you to do at the moment!" Mathew
was pleased to see the improvements in Darren's physique and strength.
"Oh, by the way, your previous Space Ring must be too small for you by now. Here, take this!" With
these words, a violet clear Space Ring appeared in front of Darren's eyes.
Darren nodded his head and put it on. He was surprised when the ring immediately claimed him as its
master.
This Space Ring was much bigger than the one he previously had. He could at least put ten huge
mountains in it.
"Thank you so much."
"You're welcome, Darren. You're going to need a good amount of Primitive Stones, so you need a big
Space Ring," Mathew said with a kind smile on his face.
"If I remember right, the Talent City is in the North Desert. I will just transport you there." Mathew
summoned his array, preparing it to transport Darren. As Darren was about to leave, Mathew added,
"Always remember, there will be many, many people stronger than you. You should never do bad
things even when you get stronger, understood?"
"Of course. Don't worry about that. I will never be the kind of person who will abuse their power for
evil."
"Yes, I know. I know you're a good kid. It's just a friendly reminder from an old man. Go ahead!"
Mathew replied, his eyes twinkling. Darren nodded, before disappearing from view.
In the blink of an eye, Darren appeared in a huge desert. He couldn't see anything but yellow sand.
"Huh? It seems that Mathew transported me in the wrong place." Darren shook his head and sighed. It
was lucky for him that he had already memorized the whole continent in his head. So it wouldn't be too
difficult for him to find the Talent City.
'It's a shame that I don't get to tell Elsa where I am. She must be worried right now.' Darren felt bad. But
he couldn't do anything about it, at least not for now. He had to get to Talent City as soon as possible.
He geared up to fly north, setting off at a fast speed.
...
Meanwhile, in the Holy Land of the Blade Holy Land, Holy Lord Diana and Holy Lord Bryan had been
fighting for a few days. The entire Blade Holy Land was swept up in a chaotic mess.
Finally, Holy Lord Diana lost. Right when she was about to use her final strength to destroy everything,
a powerful old martial artist came out and stopped her.
The Holy Land was a sacred place. Of course, people in charge of this place wouldn't let things get
even worse.
It was easy to stop their fight. But it wasn't easy to get rid of the hatred between them. Holy Lord Diana
was still furious, and the Holy Lord Bryan also claimed that he would destroy the Lotus Holy Land.
By now, Elsa had realized that Darren had gotten away. She immediately understood that he must
have gotten in the Black Cliff of Sword Intent. It meant that he was safe at least. Knowing this, she
couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
After Darren had flown full speed for a few days in the North Desert, he finally saw a huge city looming
on the horizon.
"Good! I've finally arrived at my destination!" Darren was beaming with excitement as he surveyed the
area. It was the start of his journey towards being able to finally use the Primitive Stones to fuse his
sword and blade intent!
