CHAPTER 695 THE HEAVEN LAKE SECT

"Damn it! I just left the Ancient Void Battlefield, but I'm going to die. I'm so miserable." That was Finley's

last thought before he was struck by the black lightning.

However, when he opened his eyes again, he found that the old man was beside him.

The old man appeared to be a little weak at this time. It had cost him a thousand times more of the Life

True Rule to resurrect someone at the Holy Realm than what he had paid to resurrect Hobson.

"You've wasted me a large amount of Life True Rule, boy. I'm afraid it will take more than ten years to

recover. You cannot leave the Mythological Palace for the time being. Just stay." The old man smiled.

"I almost forgot that you have the superior Life True Rule, ah." Finley's face darkened. The wonderful

world and the freedom that he had been looking forward to for a long time was right in front of him. But,

he was trapped again. "I can't seem to find any good luck! Although, it appears as though this is just

the right time to ask you about the supreme technique of Life True Rule."

"I'm glad to hear that. Your understanding of Life True Rule is superior to Darren's, and you are even

better than I thought. You would make a suitable successor.

When the time is right, you can leave here through the emperor's heart. I think ten years will be

enough."

The old man was very satisfied with Finley. Considering Finley's skills and understanding, the old man

was convinced that he would not meet another great potential successor even if he searched for a

hundred thousand years.

"What is the emperor's heart? And can you send a message to Darren so he won't worry about me?"

The old man's words had calmed Finley.

"There is a lot to tell about the emperor's heart. We shall speak more about this later. I can send

messages for you. Come with me." After saying this, the old man took Finley to the room full of

corpses.

In less than ten seconds, the old man had assembled a creature.

"Engrave what you want to say on its back," the old man ordered.

Without hesitating, Finley began etching these words, "I'll stay here for a little while. Expect me to find

you in ten years. Finley."

"Oh, I almost forgot. I have to give this to them too. Otherwise, they will struggle to find a way out of the

Life Forbidden Zone." The old man affixed a Jade Slip on the dead body's back.

After that, he used his Life True Rule to resurrect the corpse.

Once the corpse was revived, the old man drew a space rune to send it out.

This was the old man's job. He could put resurrected creatures anywhere. Since he had mastered the

process, it didn't take him more than a dozen seconds.

Darren and Hobson were flying slowly over the desert, trying to find an exit.

"The destruction has spread over thousands of kilometers! We can't find how we got here. What should

we do?" Hobson complained.

"Take your time. It'll be easy once we find the holy tombs," Darren said as he continued to explore.

All of a sudden, a creature with red hair rushed toward them.

"Wow! It is a big guy, but not very strong. Its power is equivalent to sixty percent of the Fringe Holy

Will."

Now, Darren and Hobson both had peak combat power of cultivators at the seven-star Grand Realm,

which meant that they could fight against a master who had comprehended ninety percent of the Fringe

Holy Will. Fighting this red-haired creature would not be a challenge for them.

"Why is there a rune flashing on its back?" Hobson noticed the abnormality.

"Let's challenge it and see what it is capable of."

As soon as Darren slapped the creature's head, it rolled off its body. The creature fell to the ground.

Later, Darren and Hobson found Finley's message and the Jade Slip left by the old man.

Darren was excited after he checked the Jade Slip as the old man had given them a way out.

"This is great! I didn't expect the old man and Finley to communicate with us like this," Hobson said,

overjoyed.

"Let's go." As soon as Darren infused his Spirit Power into the Jade Slip, he and Hobson were covered

in runes. Soon, they disappeared from the broken desert.

"Where am I?"

As the surroundings were covered in darkness, Darren and Hobson needed to use their spiritual sense

to perceive the area around them.

"Silly. Our spiritual sense is not suppressed anymore. With your current cultivation level, it would be

easy for you to see tens of thousands of kilometers outside. You can search for yourself." Darren rolled

his eyes at Hobson.

"Yeah, I haven't adapted to it since I just came out, ha-ha." Hobson chuckled.

"This seems to be a sect. There are over three thousand talented disciples and a very powerful old

man in it," Hobson said after he had finished probing.

"It's the Heaven Lake Sect." Darren unleashed his Spirit Power and spiritual sense to probe more

clearly. He recognized that the aura and robes belonged to the people from the Heaven Lake Sect.

"You are correct. It is the Heaven Lake Sect. Shall we flee?"

"You are so stupid! With your current strength, you don't need to run!" Darren was speechless.

"Shit, I forgot that I am a master now, ha-ha." Hobson chuckled again. Then his eyes lit up, and he

said, "Wow, there are so many magic herbs and weapons in this room. It seems that we have entered

Heaven Lake Sect's treasure tower."

"These things are useless to me," Darren said.

"We should take them first and see if any of these is useful." Although Darren saw no need for the

herbs and weapons, Hobson took them instantly. He didn't think it was necessary to leave these

treasures for the people from the Heaven Lake Sect. This material belongs to .

"Let's go out and look around."

After taking the treasures, Darren opened a door and walked out.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Immediately more than ten figures flew forward and surrounded Darren and Hobson.

"Check the treasure tower now!" someone ordered.

"Oh, no! All the treasures have been stolen!" someone answered immediately.

"Hand over the treasures quickly and kill yourselves to avoid the torment we will unleash on you!" a

disciple from the Heaven Lake Sect, who had comprehended sixty percent of the Fringe Holy Will,

shouted.

"Ha-ha, it's this guy!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in the space. Then, a man flew closer. Delight and astonishment

reflected in his expression.

Darren also recognized the man. He was Ryan, the disciple from Heaven Lake Sect, whom Darren had

tortured miserably in the beginning.

Back then, Darren had framed Ryan and then broken all his meridians. At that time, he had been in

more agony than he had ever felt.

"Boy, you've come to hell. Do you know that I've been thinking of you every day and night? The thought

of breaking you has filled every one of my dreams." Ryan gnashed his teeth as he spoke. Extreme

hatred reflected in his eyes as he glared at Darren.

"Is he your enemy, Darren?" Hobson asked calmly.

"Yes, he is. I took his Holy Will Pill," Darren said with a smile.

"Hand over the Holy Will Pill, and I'll leave your corpse intact!"

"Don't talk to him anymore, Darren. Just kill him." Hobson didn't want to waste more time.

"Ha-ha-ha! You think that you can kill me? I'll kill you, idiot!" Ryan transformed into a shadow and

rushed at Hobson.

"It seems you've comprehended fifty percent of the Fringe Holy Will! You have grown a little stronger

since we last met." Darren crossed his arms over his chest and watched the fight with interest.

Bang!

As soon as Ryan reached Hobson, Fringe Holy Will exploded. Ryan's body stopped in mid-air.

"Brother, why does Ryan stand still? Let's kill these two bastards!" a disciple asked his senior fellow

apprentice.

"No need. We don't need to fight against two thieves..."

Before the other disciple from the Heaven Lake Sect could finish speaking, many wounds appeared on

Ryan's body, and blood began spurting out.

"Ah, Ryan is dead!" When those disciples saw that Ryan was frozen in mid-air, they used their spiritual

sense to detect the breath of Ryan's life.

"Inform the grand-elder!"

Terrified by the thought that Ryan had been killed with just one hit, the dozen disciples immediately

dispersed.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you offend the Heaven Lake Sect? Go to hell!" An old man shouted

as he approached Darren and Hobson.

"Kneel!" Both Darren and Hobson roared in unison as they released immense pressure on the old man.
