CHAPTER 511 REALLY GOOD FRIENDS (PART ONE)

"I'm afraid that this is the family heirloom of the Shaoyan Clan. This prized possession should be

handed down to members of the family and not just transient strangers like me. It's not proper for me to

take such treasures," refusing the gift of gratitude from the Shaoyan Clan, Darren said in a hesitant yet

overwhelmed voice.

"Don't think of it that way. You have taken such a significant risk to save us. Darren, you are our clan's

savior and hero. We owe you a lot. Only you can own this. We were worried that this might be of no

use to you. It turned out that you can absorb the spiritual energy of it. This is the most valuable thing

that we have, and I am afraid we do not have anything more precious to offer you in thanksgiving. So,

please accept this as a sign of our gratitude," a powerful warrior of the Shaoyan Clan said to Darren.

His head was bowed low while he cupped his hands towards Darren.

"Well, if that is the case, and because you insist, I will take this crystal. Thank you very much, sir! But,

as to these weapons..." Darren accepted the blue crystal. Then, as his eyes set on the treasured

weapons, Darren's curiosity heightened.

"Well, these are the so-called Divine Weapons; they are also from the Ancient Age. It was said that

since the ancestors acquired those three weapons, no one in our clan was able to use them, even up

to now. Mr. Chu, you can keep them. Maybe one day, they would bring you help in one of your battles.

This one, written on a scroll, is the martial art skill of how to use the Divine Weapons. You should keep

it too, for you will not be able to use the weapons without this one. Later, you can try to let the Divine

Weapon to claim you as its master. But you should read the directions written on the scroll carefully

before you put any of the weapons to the test. Otherwise, you will be in danger."

The elder of the Shaoyan Clan passed the instructions and the martial art skill recorded on an ancient

scroll to Darren.

"These things have been kept in Shaoyan Clan for countless years and been handed down from one

generation to the other. Unfortunately, no one had the strength to utilize them. Darren, thank you for

accepting them all. Otherwise, it would really be a waste," the elder reckoned towards Darren with a

grateful expression on his face.

After this, the warriors of the Shaoyan Clan bowed to Darren and then started to treat Timothy's and

Abelard's injuries. Darren, on the one hand, looked for a quiet place, sat down on his feet, and began

to assimilate the blue spiritual crystal to regain and revive his strength.

Initially, the blue spiritual crystal had been as big as the head of a cow. Soon enough, it was reduced to

nothing after an hour.

Some folks of the Shaoyan Clan who were standing nearby and watching Darren assimilating the blue

crystal were shocked and stunned at how efficient Darren had absorbed the spirit energy of the crystal.

"Indeed, it is destiny! When our clan was faced with a great disaster, a friend of our young master came

to save us. He is the one who deserves to absorb that massive amount of spiritual energy from the

spiritual crystal," an older man put forth as he, too, was amazed by Darren's capabilities of absorbing This material belongs to .

such a tremendous amount of strength.

The moment Darren had assimilated all the energy from the spiritual crystal, he opened his eyes. A

striking glimmer emanated from them, which seemed to contain dark light.

"Ha, ha! Mr. Chu, can this spiritual crystal help you to break through to a four-star grand warrior?"

asked one of the members of the Shaoyan Clan.

Since Darren had killed the powerful black mutant on the fourth floor, the warriors of the Shaoyan Clan

naturally regarded him as a top-level of the three-star grand warrior.

"I cannot possibly break through that fast. Actually, I have just broken through to the top level of the

supreme stage of the Wonder Realm," turning his head in response to the question, Darren retorted

calmly.

"What? Is that true?" gasped one of the surprised warriors.

Similarly, all the warriors present were surprised to hear what Darren had said. They had never

assumed that Darren was only at the level of the Wonder Realm.

"The supreme stage of the Wonder Realm? You are joking, aren't you, Mr. Chu?" The warriors laughed

out loud all at once. They couldn't believe that such a powerful warrior like Darren had only broken

through to the Wonder Realm.

"How can I make such a joke with you? You all have my respect, and I cannot mock all of you with a lie.

I am indeed at the supreme stage of the Wonder Realm. If you find it hard to believe what I am saying,

you can have a try and see for yourselves." Darren gave out a challenge. In most times, Darren hid his

real cultivation base using some arcane skill. The concealment was for deceiving his enemies. If an

ordinary grand warrior did not detect him momentarily, they would not know which realm Darren was.

Thus, he had the advantage of the element of surprise every time he was engaged in battles.

At that moment, to prove himself, Darren stopped his arcane skill of hiding his cultivation base. Soon

enough, more than one spiritual sense flew over, and the cultivators began to detect Darren's apparent

cultivation base.

"What he was saying is indeed true! He is at the supreme stage of the Wonder Realm!"

"It's too shocking! Well, what more can I say? You are really an extraordinary talent!"

"Mr. Chu, you are really beyond our imagination!"

The powerful warriors of the Shaoyan Clan were so startled that they even did not know what to say.

After Darren finished absorbing the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual crystal, he just broke

through to the top level of the supreme stage of the Wonder Realm. Given the case, the cultivators

couldn't help wondering about Darren's cultivation base before that. 'His cultivation base was probably

lower than the premium stage of the Wonder Realm!' one of the them assumed, yet was too taken

aback to voice it out.

The people of the Shaoyan Clan couldn't keep their heads on the thought that Darren did not reach the

Grand Realm, but he could fight against a three-star grand warrior! The fact was too good to be true,

shocking, and hard to believe. The cultivators had never heard of such a thing before.

Even a holy emperor who was told in the legends would show his difference and outstanding skills from

other talents only after he had surpassed the Grand Realm! Yet, Darren, on his case, was still in the

Wonder Realm, but he was much more outstanding than other talents.

"Ha ha! I'm flattered, sirs!" with a sheepish smile on his face, Darren replied shortly.

"Mr. Chu, you are really effacing yourself. We are so lucky to have you here to help us! Is it okay if you

show us your fighting strength level now? Can you be as potent as a four-star grand warrior?"
