CHAPTER 341 THE DEMONIC INTERNAL FORCE AND THE AURA OF DRAGON BLOOD

Darren cautiously took a step back and politely asked, "What can I do for you, sir?"

As he looked at the man in the white robe and sensing the cold aura emitting from him, he somehow

felt something familiar about him. He must have seen the man before.

"Hey, Darren," the man said with his back to Darren, "I haven't seen you for a very long time."

He suddenly turned around. A strange smile was plastered on his cold but handsome face.

"Scott! It's you!" Darren exclaimed as soon as he recognized the man standing in front of him, his eyes

flashing with great joy. "You scared me, Scott! You look absolutely appalling! What are you doing

here?" He stepped towards Scott and gave the man a friendly slap on the shoulder.

"After I've finished my practice in seclusion, I sensed that you were in danger, so I immediately came

here to help you." Scott's tone was indifferent, almost detached—one could hardly see any trace of

emotion from his face.

"Don't worry, it's not a big deal. I was just practicing some martial arts with a friend. Well... How about

you, Scott? Did you succeed in getting into the Grand Realm?" Darren asked. Scott had once told him

that he would likely break through to the Grand Realm after he ate the Dragon Saliva Fruit.

Scott nodded his head. "Yes. I actually didn't expect that I would get into the Grand Realm so smoothly.

My domain has also improved quickly. I owe my success to the Dragon Saliva Fruit that you gave me.

Thank you so much, Darren."

"Congratulations, Scott! Is that why I've sensed that you are much stronger than the average one-star

grand warrior?" Darren was quite thrilled.

"How do you know the levels of the grand warriors?" Scott's brows rose up in surprise.

"So many things happened in the past few months..." Darren looked intently at Scott and then around

them. "Let's find a place to have a good talk," he suggested. Darren was extremely delighted to have

encountered Scott by chance. He had so much to tell him, they were best friends after all.

"Okay, sure. Let's go."

They then flew to a nearby mountain peak and found a comfortable resting spot.

"It was very fortunate that you survived the Heavenly Repression successfully. Your current strength is

probably close to the Grand Realm. If I haven't reached the Grand Realm, I would certainly be no

match against you," Scott said, expressing his admiration for his friend. He had sat and listened until

Darren had finished recounting everything he went through.

Darren kept nothing secret to Scott—he told him everything, including the strange stone inside his

head. He regarded Scott as his closest and dearest friend, so he found no reason not to completely be

honest with him.

"It really was fortunate. If there would be a second Heavenly Repression, I'm afraid it won't be so easy

to pull through this time around." Darren was starting to get worried about the possibility of another

Heavenly Repression happening.

"Don't worry! You'll probably be even stronger by then. You'll never know until that time comes.

Besides... That Bryan... Leave him to me. I will fight him tomorrow. He doesn't scare me. Even if he has

the help of a two-star grand warrior. But I'm not sure if there's another stronger warrior behind that two-

star grand warrior. Anyway, I may have a chance of winning." Scott became furious after hearing what

happened to the Lotus Holy Land. He was determined to help his friend out.

"We can go together tomorrow. Many grand warriors will also come. They're all my friends. Bryan can't

escape this time. As for the two-star grand warrior, there's nothing to be afraid of. To my knowledge,

the cultivation limit in our Bottom Spiritual World is becoming a three-star grand warrior. As long as

there are no four-star grand warriors, we don't have to worry too much," Darren confidently stated.

"You're right. You don't really have to be afraid of them since the legendary beast you tame is as

powerful as a three-star grand warrior. But Darren, do you know where the Medium Spiritual World and

the Upper Spiritual World are?"

Darren curled his lips. "I don't really know... Through the void?" he guessed.

"You're wrong. The so-called Medium Spiritual World and Upper Spiritual World are in fact also located

on the continent. Once a warrior's cultivation level surpasses the top level of a three-star grand warrior,

a guide will come and lead him to the border and then open the enchanted barrier to let him enter. And

once the warrior enters, it's almost impossible to return to our Bottom Spiritual World again," Scott

explained. He had gotten this information from a mysterious note that he received after he finished the This belongs to - ©.

Grand Realm cultivation in seclusion.

"Oh, I see. Let's discuss that later. I have to go and see Colin now. Shall we meet again tomorrow?"

Darren requested, smiling slightly.

"I also need to be alone for a while to strengthen and stabilize my cultivation base. But don't hurry to

leave. The aura of the dragon blood in your body is very pure, but it's still a little underdeveloped. Let

me help you refine it." After Scott reached the Grand Realm, he realized the importance of the aura of

dragon blood to one's practice. With the help of the aura of dragon blood and the inheritance skill of the

Dragon Blood Clan, he was confident enough to fight against a two-star grand warrior.

Of course, the domain skill he had acquired was also quite powerful.

"That's very kind of you, Scott! Thank you!" Darren's face lit up in gratitude.

"Oh, come on. It's my pleasure. Now, stay still and hold your breath!" Scott then immediately began

activating his aura of dragon blood. The aura loomed so pure and mighty that it felt as if a real dragon

was coming.

The aura of dragon blood flowed out from Scott and penetrated into Darren's meridians, awakening the

purest aura of dragon blood deep in his heart.

Darren felt that something inside his chest melted and after a moment, he felt it flow all over his body.

His aura suddenly became colder and colder as well as several blue scales started to appear on his

skin.

"Huh? Something's wrong. There's some kind of unknown source of resistance in your body." Scott's

brows furrowed into a scowl once he found out that there was a black internal force that had also

penetrated into Darren's meridians—and it was acting more violently.

Darren sensed it as well. The demon core in his elixir field was revolving automatically. It seemed to be

resisting the aura of dragon blood, just like the resistance between the blade intent and the sword

intent.

Scott mobilized more aura of dragon blood to suppress the black internal force.

However, after Scott succeeded in suppressing the black internal force inside Darren, the aura of

dragon blood that penetrated him started attacking his elixir field, as if to destroy the black internal

force.

"Shit. Are the two forces confronting each other?" Darren said, his face contorted in agony.

The pain was overbearing and seemed to have no end.

The roars of a dragon and a demon could be heard coming from his elixir field.

Scott could not do anything but watch as the two forces violently clashed in Darren's elixir field. He was

willing to help his friend but had no means to.

"Sorry! I didn't know that your demonic internal force would clash with the aura of dragon blood." Brows

pulled together in disconcertment, Scott looked at the suffering Darren. He did not dare use the aura of

dragon blood to suppress the black internal force any more. If he continued, he would probably get

Darren's elixir field destroyed.

"Ah! Shit!" Darren was sweating profusely and was on the verge of losing consciousness from the pain.

All of a sudden, he remembered how he had handled the conflict of the ice intent and the flame intent

before. This gave him the idea to mobilize the blade and sword intent to deal with the demonic internal

force and the aura of dragon blood.

Fortunately, the blade intent and sword intent were soon able to suppress both the demonic internal

force and the aura of dragon blood. And so, Darren gradually calmed down.

However, this method would not be able to completely solve the problem. Darren couldn't utilize the

blade intent and sword intent at all times—he had to stop once in a while.

Without the pain, he could think clearly again. After a few moments of consideration, with brows

furrowed in determination, he said, "Scott, please send a great deal of aura of dragon blood into my

meridians again."

Scott reluctantly delivered a huge amount of the aura of dragon blood into Darren's meridians. As long

as the aura of dragon blood did not enter his elixir field, Darren would be safe. They had to try and take

the risk.

Scott did not exactly know what Darren was planning to do. He was baffled, but he trusted Darren and

his capabilities.

At the moment that the aura of dragon blood entered his meridians, Darren activated his spiritual

sense. Using his spiritual sense, he tried his best to compress the aura of dragon blood into his elixir

field and rotated his pyramid-like demon core at a high speed.
