CHAPTER 607 MAKING FRIENDS
Darren always believed that he wasn't strong enough when it came to rule cultivation. But that was
mostly because he didn't have much of a chance to perfect his rule cultivation base.
However, he was definitely more than qualified to become a powerful rule cultivator.
His body was in the best shape to help him become a powerful rule cultivator, with the level twenty-five
Spirit Power he'd awakened and the One Rule Tower in his body.
That was why, when he heard the woman talk about the tomb of a holy rule cultivator, he determined to
check it out.
"What are your names respectively?" Darren asked.
"I'm Carter Qiu, the big guy is Riley Kui and this beauty is Abby Ji. We are from three different tribes
nearby." At first, Carter had wanted to order people from his tribe to kill Darren, but he'd been
intimidated by the man. After sensing Darren's imposing aura, he took the initiative to introduce himself
and his friends so they could endear themselves to Darren.
"Nice to meet you! My name is Darren Chu. I'm about your age. I found myself here by accident. If
you're all right with it, I'd like for us to be friends," Darren told them sincerely.
The three of them looked at one another.
While the young man in front of them was very strong, he didn't mean them any harm. It was rare to
find a powerful warrior that was humble, so befriending him would definitely be to their benefit.
"Ah ha, this was just a misunderstanding. Let's forget about it. We would like nothing more than to be
friends. In any case, I'm 138 years old. How old are you, Darren?" Riley asked.
"138?" Darren was stunned.
"Yes, he is. Riley is the strongest warrior of the younger generation of the Bulk Tribe, and he is a bit
younger than us. Darren, I am guessing you're a little older than him, aren't you?" Carter, the young
man in animal skins said.
"Well...I'm more along the line of thirty years old." They looked to be around twenty years old to Darren.
He hadn't expected them to be over a hundred years old. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Though to be fair, Darren realized that one probably shouldn't guess the age of a powerful martial artist
by his or her appearance. Scott was over a hundred years old after all, but he looked around thirty.
"What? Are you serious? You are only 30 years old?" Hearing Darren's age had shocked the woman
named Abby Ji.
In their tribe, a person was only considered an adult after turning one hundred and fifty years old.
Darren was only thirty years old, meaning he was just a child.
It wasn't just Abby Ji who was shocked by the news, the other two were just as amazed. How could he
be so powerful at only thirty years of age? Where had he come from?
"Darren, are you a gifted child from the top three tribes?" Carter asked, his respect for Darren grew.
"No, I actually come from a place called the Bottom Spiritual World. I only recently came to the territory
of the Medium Spiritual World."
"Wow!"
The three gasped in astonishment at the same time. They had heard a little about the Bottom Spiritual
World from their predecessors. It was said to be a place with an extreme lack of resources and a
horrific fiend was suppressed there. There were no talents, and no strong masters were allowed to
exist there.
"What's wrong?" Darren inquired as he caught the odd looks they were giving him.
"Nothing. Nothing is wrong. I'm just surprised by you. You are incredible!" Riley answered. His eyes
filled with respect for Darren.
"Ha-ha, there are so many powerful people in the world. I am just a nobody. By the way, can you
please tell me about the tomb of the holy rule cultivator Abby mentioned?" Darren smiled. He was still
curious about the tomb.
"Don't listen to her. Even a real inferior holy warrior couldn't survive there. We will all die if we go there.
A warrior with the combat power of an inferior holy warrior is no match to a person who has actually
reached the inferior stage of the Holy Realm. You should know that, right?" Carter worried that Darren
didn't understand how dangerous that place was.
"Well... Honestly, I don't know much about this." Darren was telling the truth. He'd never fought against
a cultivator who had reached the Holy Realm.
"You don't know that? I heard from our patriarch that there is a place called the Sacred Palace outside
our world. In the Sacred Palace, they make inferior holy warriors generals. In fact, the so-called inferior
holy warriors are just exceptionally strong warriors that haven't really reached the Holy Realm.
A real holy warrior possesses a power called the 'Holy Will'. Once used, it can instantly kill any seven-
star grand warrior. It's very terrifying,"
Abby Ji explained seeing the confused expression on Darren's face.
Darren thought through her words for a moment and said, "Killing any seven-star grand warrior in an
instant can't be true. It might be true that a holy warrior has the Holy Will, but what is the Holy Will?"
All he could think was that it was impossible for the holy warriors they'd mentioned to kill Mathew and
Hanson so easily.
"I think what Darren said makes sense. I also consider the Holy Realm deified. After all, seven-star
grand warriors are really strong, and have terrifying fighting skills. There are a couple of seven-star
grand warriors that are as powerful as an inferior holy warrior, right?
As for what the Holy Will is, we don't know either."
"It's also said that a holy rule cultivator is more powerful than a holy martial artist if they are in the same
level. But I don't know if it's true or not."
Darren talked with them as they headed back.
Four hours later, they found their way out of a cave.
"Phew!" They breathed in the fresh air and looked quite happy to see the sunshine. "We've been inside
for three years now. Finally, we are out in the sun again."
"Are we really not going to the senior holy warrior's tomb? I think we can give it a try now that Darren is
with us." On their way back to the outside world they'd all voiced their objections to visiting the senior
holy warrior's tomb, but Abby Ji was still not happy with the decision.
"Stop thinking about it, Abby. The senior holy warrior's tomb cannot be broken through with our powers
alone. We need to at least get the Blood Flame Token. Moreover, even if we had the Blood Flame
Token, we might still die inside. Besides that, are there any talented rule cultivators in our three tribes?
Even if we entered the grave alive, we won't get anything useful out of it."
"Carter is right. Abby, you are just curious. Don't put Darren in danger by persuading him to go inside
the tomb!" Riley said as he glared at Abby.
"Well, let's go back to the tribe first. Darren, you can come with us. Our tribes are close to each other's,
and you are very welcome to stay with any tribe as you want."
In just a few hours, the three people's impression of Darren had improved a lot, enough that they'd
invited him to stay with their tribes.
"Thank you for inviting me to stay with you. I didn't really have any other places to go anyway," Darren
replied.
"You are very welcome. I'd like you to help me in cultivation when you have time."
"Yes! Darren, you are much more powerful than us. Would you please tell us how to improve our
skills?"
"No problem. But I don't think I am strong enough to instruct you guys. I can give you some herbs,
though," Darren said with a smile.
"Darren, you are really modest. Oh, come to think of it, why haven't people from our tribes come to pick
us up? They should have been prepared a feast to welcome us since we've succeeded in breaking into
the forbidden area." Carter realized something was very wrong.
"Bullshit! Why do you need others to welcome you? Don't be such a show off. Let's go, the tribe is 700
kilometers away by flying." Abby glared at Carter.
"I'm not trying to be vain at all! Breaking into the forbidden area is a very big deal. No one has been
indifferent to this accomplishment like this before. I'm just worried that something might have
happened."
"Fine, you're right. Let's head back and see what's going on."
Hearing this, Darren began to probe their tribes carefully.
His spiritual sense was not suppressed in the outside world. With his Spirit Power, his spiritual sense
could cover a thousand kilometers around in the Medium Spiritual World.
"Your tribes are being slaughtered."
Darren frowned. He sensed a huge man with a big iron hammer fighting vigorously against three old
men.
Most of the houses in their tribes had been destroyed. There was blood and bones everywhere.
"We need to get there as fast as we can!" None of them even questioned Darren's words. Together
they flew into the sky and headed back.
