CHAPTER 856 THE STRANGE STONE

Darren's meridians were invaded by the grey mist. It easily destroyed them as if it were crushing dry

weeds and stones. Eventually, it started to rush straight into Darren's head.

Even the strange stone in his head could not resist the strong and uncanny aura. After all, the trace of

the soul power in the strange stone had already disappeared.

Darren's face had started to turn pale and twisted. He was having a difficult time breathing already.

Luther thought that he had been too careless. The blue-skinned man they fought against was at the

senior Holy Realm. Even on the verge of death, there were powerful means for him to fight for his life.

Whoosh!

A bloodcurdling sword intent was shot over, making Conrad's head explode.

"Ah!"

Meanwhile, Darren was roaring in pain and falling to the ground.

His face was turning ghastly pale. And not soon after, his soul collapsed and he lost his breath.

Darren's death took Luther by surprise!

"Roar!"

In Luther's mind, someone had been crying in pain.

"Is this his avatar?"

Luther was familiar with the aura. It was Darren's avatar roaring in agony.

A few moments later, a phantom forced its way out from under the rule silk threads. The threads were

like thorns that were wrapped around it.

"Awwwww!"

His eyes were silver and his face projected coldness and pain.

The avatar had mentioned that he would disappear if Darren's soul vanished.

He had to rush out even if he was surrounded by the rule silk threads.

"I'm sorry, bro,"

Luther apologized to the avatar. The avatar had asked him to protect Darren, but he hadn't expected

that he indirectly caused Darren's death.

The avatar's silver eyes fell on Luther, looking as if he was pleading.

Luther couldn't understand him. But when he saw the avatar turn his gaze to Darren, he quickly

understood what he meant.

He held Darren up and flew towards the avatar.

After a while, the sky had turned completely dark. Luther dashed into the area that was filled with

thunderbolts and space cracks. No one could bear the violent force, even him.

"Howl!"

The avatar's roar was so loud. His breath became weaker and his figure had started to fade. He

couldn't break through millions of rule silk threads' shackle.

The sword intent surged all over Luther's body. He dispelled the violent rule forces that were forced at

him and approached the avatar.

Boom!

Streams of torrent, called the Resurrection Force, flew out of the avatar's head. This power was much

powerful now than before, thanks to the avatar's further comprehension.

The Resurrection Force poured into Darren's brain. The avatar became weaker and weaker by every

second.

"Retreat!" the avatar shouted.

Luther quickly brought Darren away when he felt that the chaotic rule silk threads were about to break

their bodies.

Crack!

Once the void broke, the two figures fell out of the world of rules.

Even a powerful sword holy warrior like Luther was having a difficult time. The sword intent inside his

body was swept away. His path to recovery would definitely be difficult and would take at least ten

years.

Luther took a glance at Darren and saw signs that Darren had a breath of life.

Buzz...

As strong auras started to come from a distance, the air began to tremble.

Luther frowned as he heard that. He could feel that it was the powerful aura of a blue-skinned man. He

had no sword intent left and he could no longer protect Darren.

Luther had no choice but to run away with Darren.

A few minutes after Luther took Darren away, the strong blue-skinned men descended.

"Conrad was killed!"

"Damn it! That was such a powerful aura of a sword cultivator. Who on earth killed him?!"

The blue-skinned men were furious.

Darren lay on a stone platform inside the deep cave.

Luther had tried to use spiritual energy to treat Darren, but he failed miserably. It was because Darren's

soul was severely hurt.

Even with the Resurrection Force that the avatar released wasn't enough to fix Darren's soul.

"Did he become a living dead just like this?" Luther apologetically looked at Darren.

He tried to communicate with Darren's avatar, and found that he had disappeared completely.

Luther had no other choice but to stay there and wait to see if there was any turning point.

A month had already passed.

Luther woke up in silence, observing Darren's unconscious body. Darren fell into a coma, and there

was only a faint wave of life energy around him.

Luther observed further. Upon inspecting carefully, he found something strange.

Darren's Space Ring was slightly trembling. It seemed as if something was about to fly out of it.

Whiz...

A faint sword intent quickly swept over.

The Space Ring was attacked and unlocked, mostly because of its inexplicable attraction.

A black hexahedral crystal flew out of the Space Ring.

Crack, crack, crack!

Both the black lightning and the black runes jumped in the air.

The lightning and the runes gradually filled the whole cave. Luther chose to retreat in order to avoid

disturbing the sudden change.

A few moments later, the black lightning and the runes turned into a shape similar to a passage. One of

its ends was connected to the hexahedral crystal, while the other end was connected to Darren's head.

Buzz...

The hexahedral crystal began to rotate rapidly, then flew along the passage, and gradually flew into

Darren's head.

Darren's body trembled as soon as the hexahedral crystal flew into his head.

His twisted soul seemed to have regained some consciousness. He saw a black hexahedral crystal in

the center of his twisted soul.

Rule silk threads extended from the crystal like the root of a tree, wiggling and constantly extending.

Clatter...

Darren's soul heard the sound of the waves. He felt like he was drifting with them in a sea of runes.

The black crystal in his elixir field began to emit runes that rushed through his broken meridians to the

mind.

Gradually, the twisted soul recovered.

Ten days had passed and Darren's soul had already recovered. His consciousness was basically

awake.

Darren stood in his consciousness sea and stared at the hexahedral crystal as it rotated.

"This Fake God Character... Should I fit this?"

Darren wasn't feeling happy. If he fit with this Fake God Character, it would be equivalent to inheriting

the Fake God Character of the Dark Emperor. His future achievements would therefore be limited.

"Forget it! It saved my life. That's enough for me," Darren helplessly sighed.

Crack!

A gold divine thunder suddenly appeared in Darren's mind, making him shudder with fear.

Three seconds seemed like a hundred years. Gold lightning fell on the hexahedral crystal. This material belongs to .

When the gold light burst out, Darren's soul raised up his arm and resisted it. Soon after, he found out

that he couldn't feel any type of pain at all.

The hexahedral crystal turned into powder and floated in Darren's consciousness sea.

"Did the strange stone move?"

The strange black stone in Darren's consciousness sea floated over and landed in the same place

where the hexahedral crystal had been.

The crystal's powder spun around the strange black stone.

Finally, all the powder had seeped into the strange stone.

The stone then began to quiver. Its spiked edge began to fall off with a dark gold luster.

Hours later, Darren found the scene shocking.

A third of the strange stone that was standing in the center of his soul had totally transformed.

It had already formed twelve dark gold smooth surfaces.
