CHAPTER 766 A BATTLE BETWEEN HOLY EMPERORS
It was a piece of cake for Darren, Elsa, and Nate to fly for eighty thousand kilometers as they headed
west.
Unfortunately, after slaughtering millions of tiny black beasts, the air was filled with the smell of blood. It
was almost suffocating for them to fly through that region.
A towering mountain came into their view.
Colorful clouds and mists encircled the mountains, and peculiar birds shuttled in-between. Everything
seemed quiet and serene.
"Phew!" Darren, Elsa, and Nate took a deep breath. As the fresh air filled their lungs, they felt
revitalized.
"Let's fly higher and investigate." Darren raised his head and gazed at the summit that stretched into
the sky.
"That man is so powerful that it will not be easy for us to go up," Elsa remarked with a frown.
"You guys stay here. I'll go up and check," Darren instructed.
"Why do you do this all the time, Darren? You go off on your own and leave me behind, humph!" Elsa
said with a pout.
"This time, it's different, Elsa. You and Nate can cultivate here. And if anything happens to me, you can
always help me, right?"
Darren knew that the speed of cultivation in this region was several times faster than that of the outside
world. Once Elsa's killing sword intent improved, her fighting power would also be enhanced. Since this
would be helpful to him, Darren suggested that Elsa stay and cultivate.
When Elsa didn't reply, Darren smiled and said, "At least try the cultivation speed here before getting
upset with me. I promise you will love this place more."
"Humph!" Reluctantly, she sat and began to practice the killing sword intent in her mind.
"Ah." After a while, she glanced at Darren in surprise, and said, "How did I cultivate so fast?"
"Do you remember the time I told you about the precious treasure I found? It is here!"
"Oh, I see. I should also cultivate now, or else I will lag behind you and Elsa, and be a burden." Nate
called upon the Primitive Fighting Force and began to cultivate and deduce.
In a few seconds, Nate and Elsa both quieted down as they became completely immersed in their
cultivation.
With a slight smile, Darren leaped into the air and began his journey to the top of the Barren Mountain.
The wind howled in Darren's ears, and he disappeared into the clouds.
Crack.
Bolts of lightning sparkled next to Darren. These seemed to contain a mysterious power that people did
not understand.
Rows of iron chains had been intertwined and embedded into the mountainside. The other end of the
chains seemed to disappear into the void.
A small passage, just enough to accommodate one person, lay in the middle of the iron chains.
Darren flew into the passage. All of a sudden, darkness and cold air enveloped him.
Boom.
Darren felt a huge tremble as if millions of huge beasts were galloping past him. A moment later,
countless rays of dim light flashed before his eyes. Darren's body spun as he felt himself sinking into
an abyss.
Darren didn't struggle at all.
After a while, he felt as though the speed with which he was falling had slowed.
Soon, he saw what appeared to be a piece of decaying land.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
As soon as Darren landed on the land, many figures in armor popped out from all directions. Within
seconds, they had surrounded Darren.
"Huh!"
Darren's heart skipped a beat. He was able to sense that all these creatures had a majestic
momentum.
Thousands of powerful creatures rushed toward Darren.
Darren gathered all his strength, and his aura exploded.
Despite his quick reaction, Darren was shocked by the experience. Each of these creatures was well
above his fighting ability. He could not contend with one, let alone the hundred thousand creatures that
were charging at him.
Boom.
The earth trembled as numerous figures passed over the area where was Darren standing. To Darren's
astonishment, they passed through him without causing any harm to him.
"They are illusions!" Relief coursed through Darren when he realized what they were.
"It looked so real." Although these creatures were illusions and not phantoms, Darren was still reeling
from the shock he had felt at the thought of having to fight an overwhelming number of overmatches.
Once Darren returned to normal, he leaped into the air and looked down at the land.
The thick black mist dissipated from the area across from the troops, and a black chariot seemed to Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
arrive from deep underground. On it sat a middle-aged man in black armor.
"What?"
Darren exclaimed with raised eyebrows.
"That's the Dark Emperor Armor... The Dark Emperor!"
Darren shouted. No wonder he felt that the man was a little familiar when Darren first saw him. It was
the armor! The armor the middle-aged man was wearing was the complete Dark Emperor Armor.
Millions of troops rushed at the Dark Emperor on the chariot. Killing intent filled the air.
"Howl!"
All of a sudden, countless gruesome dark shadows rose from below the ground and charged at the
troops in armors.
"Ahh! I understand now. This is a battle between the Dark Force cultivators and the Primitive Fighting
Force cultivators."
Darren realized when he saw the battle unfold before him.
As the Dark Force and the Primitive Fighting Force fought, broken arms and amputated legs lay
everywhere. Blood filled the river, turning everything red.
It was a real battle. The strong cultivators had risked their lives and devoted themselves to the
battlefield.
After a while, the Dark Emperor stood from the chariot. His long cloak swirled in the wind behind him.
Darren had never met a person like the Dark Emperor. His appearance and aura were so unique.
As the Dark Emperor raised his hand, black runes jumped in the palm of his hand. The terrible ghostly
aura released sent a shiver through Darren. Even though he was a bystander, he felt extremely cold.
He knew that it was an illusion and that the real scene dissipated probably millions of years ago.
"How terrible and powerful the holy emperor is!"
The Dark Emperor raised his hand, and the black runes spread out. It was almost as if he were giving a
blessing. Unfortunately, his action would not bring a blessing, only death.
At this moment, the Dark Emperor was like a Demon God.
Wherever the black runes passed, all the strong warriors turned into ash, and their breath of life was
burned out.
"Primitive Emperor, are you going to show yourself? Why are you still hiding?" The Dark Emperor
raised his head and stared at the sky.
As a spear descended from the darkest area of the void, a fierce blood light lit up the whole ground.
A figure dressed in armor descended like a God.
"Do you think you can kill me?"
he roared. The spear in his hand shook as he spoke, and everyone present stopped mid-battle.
"Cut the crap. Just a fight is enough."
The Dark Emperor glanced at him coldly. His eyes were as dark as Aaron's but more abstruse.
Whoosh!
He flew toward the void, followed closely by the man holding the spear.
"That man must be a holy emperor as well!"
Darren was so excited that he could hardly believe that he would witness a battle between two holy
emperors.
Seeing this, Darren's heart beat so fast that he thought it would jump out of his chest.
Boom.
A huge opening suddenly appeared in the void, which was like a gigantic beast opening its mouth.
Two figures stood in front of the black opening.
Even Darren couldn't see them clearly as they stood in the distant void. Everything was blurry.
Whoosh!
Darren tried his best to get close to them.
After a long flight, to his surprise, the two figures were still far away. Only then did Darren realize that
they had broken through the limit of space and had reached a farther place. And this place was not
something that he could attack with his full strength.
Darren shook his head as disappointment coursed through him. The result of the battle was still
unclear.
Buzz.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in front of Darren, and space began to surge with strange rule force.
All of a sudden, a pair of silver eyes appeared in front of Darren.
"Avatar!" Darren roared.
