CHAPTER 899 ATTACKING BARNES TOGETHER

The shadow furiously glared at Barnes and a strong killing intent emanated from his body.

"Oh?" Barnes smirked. Wasn't this shadow Hiram?

"I didn't expect that your soul would still be around. It's useless, however," Barnes murmured.

"Why are you helping the fiend?"

the shadow asked coldly. Although he was but a fragment of Hiram, he could still recognize Barnes. He

did not understand what he was doing.

"Telling you would be useless." Barnes didn't want to explain anything to him.

"Argh!"

Hiram raised his hand and a tremendous holy emperor's power came down like a torrent.

Barnes narrowed his eyes. This attack contained at least eighty percent of Hiram's strength when he

was alive. Barnes felt the tension rise in the air.

Sweep!

A stick shadow met Hiram's palm.

Boom!

The ground cracked. Thick smoke filled the area. The two forces clashed, tearing the rule silk threads.

Every creature around the forbidden area looked on in horror.

Back in the Sacred Palace, Darren awoke with a start.

He heard the loud crash and immediately flew out to investigate.

He raised his head and looked up. A large, thick cloud loomed in the sky and bursts of light were

shining just behind it.

He looked around. He could sense the aura of a genuine emperor, which sent a chill down his spine.

'Barnes, ' Darren thought, frowning.

He should have expected that Barnes would not give up so easily.

Darren was just about to fly out when he felt a hand hold him back.

"Don't, Darren."

It was Chandler.

"Why? I have to stop Barnes. After all, we are friends," Darren said.

Chandler gave him a bitter smile. "In the eyes of those people, there is no friendship. You going there

would be in vain. If he turns on you, you will be in big trouble."

"But..."

"Don't worry. You can go to the eighteen cities to develop yourself. Lord Donald and I will deal with

what's happening here. When the four greatest holy warriors come back, even if the fiend flee out, we

can still deal with him. You don't have to worry about us," said Chandler.

Darren was silent.

The aura that emanated from the forbidden area indeed came from someone more powerful than him,

even with the help of the light red liquid. He only had two drops left. He shook his head. This much

would only give him a boost for about a few minutes.

"Can the four greatest holy warriors really suppress the fiend?" Darren doubted.

"The four greatest holy warriors are in charge of the Heavenly Exterminating Array. That kind of power

is sufficient to defend us, not to mention fight against just one of the fiend's arms," Chandler said.

The Heavenly Exterminating Array was invented by the witcher ancestor to be activated by four

powerful humans. It was in accordance with the ancient powerful rules. Once it was used, the power

would be greater than anything the world had ever seen.

It was used to cut up the fiend into eight parts. Hiram the Great and the witcher ancestor used it to help

them during the battle.

"Phew!" Darren took a deep breath. He thought of how he was the cause of the mess because he

chose to get Barnes out of the Raksa Sea.

"I'll do my best to enter the eighteen cities and become stronger as quickly as I can!" Darren promised.

Chandler nodded and said, "Good. Keep your calm. The passageway to the eighteen cities is about to

open. Just wait for it. I must go now. I wish you well on your travels."

Darren knew that Chandler must go to the forbidden area to investigate. Thousands of innocent lives

were at stake.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Just as Chandler was about to leave, several figures flew into the air towards the forbidden area.

"They are reclusive cultivators of our human race. They got here just in time." Chandler smiled,

pleased.

Darren had heard from Luther that there were many people with immense power hiding throughout the

land. These must be who he was talking about.

"Go on!" Chandler beckoned to Darren to wait at the passage.

"Yes, sir." Darren bowed and flew away. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Back at the forbidden area, the sky was filled with senior holy warriors who had come from all over the

land. Some of them were as powerful as a half-step emperor.

They had all come to survey the damage.

At the center of the forbidden area, under Hiram the Great's halberd, they could see Hiram the Great's

shadow fighting a formidable foe. They could see the shadow's strength slowly dying out and looked on

anxiously.

Barnes was finally gaining the upper hand.

"Go to hell!"

The domineering force of his stick crushed the shadow.

"It's a good thing he doesn't have his full strength...Otherwise, I would have been beaten to a pulp!"

The monkey panted for breath.

The bloody arm stayed dormant when it saw Hiram the Great's shadow appear.

The shadow was finally destroyed and turned into a cyan halo and rushed back into the battle halberd.

The halberd seemed to become heavier and it pressed all of its weight into the fiend's arm again.

Upon seeing this, Barnes let out an angered roar. "Damn it! All that I did was useless!"

He had pulled out more than half of Hiram's halberd, but it stabbed into the fiend's arm again. Barnes

gritted his teeth.

"Grargh!"

As the power of the halberd increased, the fiend's arm let out a ferocious roar.

Boom!

Suddenly, the earth shook. Black smoke rose up. As soon as they saw the smoke, several of the senior

holy warriors rushed into it.

"What?" Barnes raised his head and looked up.

He had consumed much of his power in the battle with the Hiram the Great's shadow. He looked

around him and saw powerful cultivators surrounding him.

"Barnes! I respect you! You are a powerful cultivator! But you must leave now, or I will be forced to

drive you out!"

"We are giving you a chance! If you don't leave now, don't blame us for what we will do."

A few senior holy warriors shouted at Barnes.

"Just you? You're nobody!"

Although Barnes's power had weakened, he was still arrogant.

"Talk it out with my stick!"

His stick's runes soared, and fell from the sky. It simultaneously attacked a few senior holy warriors.

"So arrogant!"

The senior holy warriors fought back with all their might.

Several more cultivators surrounded him and directly attacked him.

The few warriors who were comparable to half-step emperors focused all of their energy on Barnes.

"Argh!"

The men were able to defend themselves from Barnes's attacks and even got to hit him a few times.

This made Barnes very angry.

In a flash, a turbulent fiendish aura rushed out. The fiend's arm had launched an attack.

The fiendish aura surged, but it didn't attack the senior holy warriors. It went straight into Barnes's

body.

With a large amount of the fiendish aura, the dazzling, golden light began to fade.

"That's right!"

Barnes got excited. He could feel himself getting stronger and stronger as the seconds passed.
