CHAPTER 912 THE INDOMITABLE FORCE
The sword intent condensed into a solid, tangible sword in front of the colorful treasure beast. Darren
wielded the sword with immense strength, forming perfect arches in the air.
Fury flashed in the treasure beast's eyes.
With a shuddering cry, it sprang forward, the sword slapping against its massive claw.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sonorous sound rang out in the air. The claws of the treasure beast were indeed hard enough to
resist Darren's sword intent.
The exasperation of the treasure beast was welling up. Before long, a thousand rays of lightning shot
out of the beast and shattered Darren's sword intent.
"This beast is really strong, Chaz," Darren said as he smiled sheepishly. "I will have to leave him to
you." Then he leaped back. Although his sword intent was very powerful, it was not strong enough to
kill a treasure beast that was as powerful as a top level, four-tribulation junior holy warrior.
"No problem," Chaz said with a cheeky grin. At once, Chaz transformed into a phantom and rushed
towards the treasure beast.
As soon as Chaz left, those men who had retreated came forth and surrounded Darren.
"You!" one of them shouted at Darren.
Darren knew that they were the disciples of the Blue Cloud City.
"What a coincidence to meet you here!" Darren said with impassive look on the face.
"This treasure beast is ours! If you dare to rob it of us, we will kill you!" the young man in the lead
threatened.
He was in panic, for he would suffer a great loss if the treasure beast was snatched. Moreover, they
had already informed the young master. It was only a matter of time before he arrived. Right now, they
had to keep the Runic Bone to themselves before his arrival. If they failed, the young master would
surely think that they were useless and would definitely punish them.
"Who said that the treasure beast is yours? Can you even kill it by yourselves? You all retreated in
cowardice! Just shut up and watch!" Darren said coldly with a scoff.
All of those men were filled with murderous intent at Darren's arrogant manner.
Although they all saw that Darren's sword intent was very strong, they did not feel it strong enough to
make them give in. They reckoned that Darren's strength was on par with that of a top level junior holy
warrior of three tribulations.
"So does that mean you do not want to live?" The foremost young man narrowed his eyes.
"Let's not talk nonsense with him. We'd better kill this bastard while that four-tribulation junior holy
warrior is busy dealing the treasure beast," someone from the folk suggested.
"That's exactly what I was thinking of."
Saying that, the young man gave orders to the others. Instantly, they arrayed themselves and beset
Darren, getting ready to assail him.
There were more than ten people there, and all had the prominent cultivation base. Darren perceived
that their joint efforts could fight against the treasure beast for a fair period of time. Their combat power
would absolutely be comparable to that of a junior holy warrior who had newly survived four
tribulations.
They launched their attacks at Darren at the same time. Soon Darren was completely drowned in a sea
of swords and blades.
"Darren, do you need help over there?" Sensing the flurry of blows at this side, Chaz sent a message
to Darren.
"No, I'm good. Thanks," Darren answered. He thought he could handle on his own. Moreover, Chaz
was also having a hard time dealing with the treasure beast as he had been retreated by the force
several times. He was already showing signs of weariness.
With a lively buzz, Darren's sword intent came into being. It condensed into a strong storm and gushed
forward in all directions.
"An insignificant skill you have got. Go to hell!"
The young man who took the lead attacked Darren first. He raised his hand and struck a significant
wave of tribulation thunder aura towards Darren.
Darren released his sword intent at the same time, but it was destroyed on its way to the young man.
As a result, the young man's blow fell right upon Darren's chest, delivering a shuddering pain.
"It seems the sword intent is still too weak," Darren murmured.
After some thought, he decided to give the fight a quick end.
In a blink of an eye, he transformed into a dragon and swooped over those men. As he towered over
them, he saw the men tremble with fear.
"What! The brat is a dragon?
How could this even be! Kill him! All his flesh and organs are wholesome to our body!"
The foremost young man was the first to recover from his terror. With blinding speed, he plunged in for
another attack.
All of the others followed him and began to charge towards Darren at full speed.
Seeing the greedy nature of those men made Darren snort with disgust.
Utilizing his olive-black force, Darren swept across the men with his dragon tail.
"Hold your ground! Strike him with united strength!"
the young man ordered. They all arrayed themselves in position and put their mightiest skills into
action.
Bang!
The collision made a booming noise. The combined force of the men was indeed terrifying. After the
clash, there were numerous cuts that appeared on Darren's dragon scales.
Nonetheless, he was not fully in a disadvantageous state. Three of the Blue Cloud City disciples, the
weaker ones, were not able to withstand the blow. They bent forward, holding their stomachs as they
coughed out blood.
"Damn it! Our united force is not enough to kill him.
Listen carefully! We have to use the Pervasive Sky Rage Array!" the young man ordered immediately. It
was soon coming to his realization that Darren was a tough opponent.
The Pervasive Sky Rage Array was the most powerful skill of the group. Once it was formed, it could
enhance the strength of every member of the team by absorbing the purest natural force in the world.
Such an array was supposed to be used to deal with the treasure beast in time of danger to protect
themselves. But now, in order to kill Darren quickly, they had no choice but to turn it on.
Unfortunately, doing this did not come with a price. In order to absorb the natural force, they had to
exert their souls.
The earth beneath their feet trembled violently.
A terrifying crack appeared in the air and after a while, thirteen fierce rules suddenly descended and fell
on those men.
The wind spun around and roared with might.
In a short time, it swept over all the towering trees in the entire forest.
"What the hell!" Darren immediately sensed that the killing aura of those men was growing rapidly.
He knew that once the array was successfully formed, it would be more difficult for him to deal with
them. Without a moment's hesitation, he turned into a shadow and dashed towards the half-formed
array.
Bang!
After he had reached the array, he quickly transformed back into the dragon. He tried to break the array
with his tail, but after many attempts, he failed as there was a runic wall blocking him.
A cold fury coursed through him.
He let out a piercing roar and hit upon the runic wall with his dragon claws.
His efforts began to take effect. The runic wall started to crack with each powerful blow.
"Damn it. He's coming in."
At this time, they hadn't finished the formation of the array yet. Once Darren had succeeded in breaking
the array, their spiritual souls would be greatly damaged.
"Don't worry! Just hold on for a couple more seconds! Let's end this!" Upon realizing the threat, the
young leader made an order and accelerated the burning of his spiritual soul.
After a while, through a series of continuous mighty strikes, the runic wall finally collapsed. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
However, the Pervasive Sky Rage Array formation was finished as well.
"Ha-ha-ha, go to hell, brat!" the leader yelled out aloud.
His aura surged like a flood, and he became as strong as a new four-tribulation junior holy warrior.
What was more, he was not the only one who had gained the natural force of the earth. The whole
company was now powerful enough to compete against even a treasure beast.
Darren also noticed the change in their cultivation base. His body turned red, getting ready for his next
assault.
Then a dark gold internal force rushed out of his mouth and dashed towards the group of men.
"What! It is the power of the Conflicting Cultivation!"
Everyone was surprised. It wasn't until now that they realized that Darren was not as weak as they had
thought. Not only did he have the genuine dragon's body, but also the Conflicting Cultivation, which
made him no weaker than those talents who had acquired their cultivation base by surviving
tribulations.
Nonetheless, they felt the power of the Conflicting Cultivation suppressible. They believed that Darren
would not be able to launch the attack a second time as it would require a significant consumption of
energy.
However, all their perception proved ill. A blood-red light flashed and filled the air.
The aura of the light was terrifying enough to send all the men on the ground shuddering with fear.
There was a harsh rattle, and then a piercing scream.
It was Darren. His dragon body had turned blood red and his strength had enhanced to its limit.
"We must kill him! Our fate will be decided by this fight! Give him all you've got!"
Despite the terror towards their enemy, they had no choice but to fight Darren with all their might.
They had never expected that Darren would become their key danger.
As far as they knew, the blood-red light Darren released was far stronger than any power of the
Conflicting Cultivation they had ever seen.
Mustering up all their strength, the men exerted themselves in the battle against Darren. The earth
began to shake, and the space began to collapse.
