For someone who could become a supreme god in the near future, Darren knew that he possessed such extraordinary strength.
Besides, he even witnessed Lord Starry Sword's sword intent. It was the kind of sword intent that only supreme gods could display. He was not even a deputy god, yet he possessed a sword intent at the caliber of supreme gods. Such exceptional talent was so rare throughout the entire history.
"To tell you the truth, there is another rising talent, and he seemed to be on par with Lord Starry Sword," Yama said after a while.
"Who is this person?" Darren quickly asked out of curiosity.
"Hmm, are you talking about a man named Finley Feng, Lord Yama?" Jenifer asked immediately after.
"Yes, I am. Do you know who he is? It is said that he's from a mortal world. But while he was still enhancing his strength, he had caused quite a sensation in the world. This guy killed the fiend emperors, the Shuras, and even the angels. He was so confident about his own power that he provoked nearly every race in the Primitive Wilderness.
Because of this, several creatures came after him. He experienced countless brutal killings and was fortunate enough to barely escape death many times. Then, at the peak of his cultivation, he killed a fiend, who was a deputy god, with a single strike. It was one hundred and ninety thousand years ago. This event was what made him known throughout the world.
Since then, people have often compared him with Lord Starry Sword, saying that they must be more or less equal in strength," Yama recounted.
"Yes, I've heard the stories. One of my uncles mentioned this man to me. It is said that his power rose like a comet because of his fast growth. Even the Defiant Masters felt powerless and frustrated because they weren't able to keep up with him," Jenifer added.
Hearing all of this, Darren felt very excited.
This Finley that they were talking about was the real body of his good friend, who was also named Finley.
"Whoa, I didn't expect that he is so powerful." Darren couldn't help but utter his admiration.
"Have you met him before?" Jenifer asked curiously.
"No, I haven't seen the real one. What I do know is that he is originally from the Lothlann Continent too." Darren smiled bitterly.
"Really? That's incredible." Jenifer and Yama were still surprised.
They didn't expect that Darren and Finley Feng would actually come from the same continent. It was such a great coincidence.
Currently, there were trillions of mortal worlds. Even if just a single person in one hundred thousand mortal worlds was able to reach the Primitive Wilderness, it was already an amazing feat.
"By the way, have you heard of a God of Sword that goes by the name Todd?" The Lothlann Continent had gone through five crises. He briefly remembered that on one of those, it was Todd who had protected the continent. After that, he successfully entered the Primitive Wilderness.
"I don't think I've ever heard of him." Yama shook his head after thinking for a while.
"Well, that's fine. He's not a very well-known figure anyway. Maybe only a few people know him," Darren replied with a smile and didn't pursue the topic anymore.
"All right, enough chit-chat. We need to get down to business," Yama suddenly said in a serious tone.
"Business? What are you talking about?" Darren asked with furrowed brows.
"You two are my friends and you even let Donovan become my disciple. Somehow, I need to repay that, right?" Then, Yama continued with a faint smile, "I'll be direct with you. The only way out of this abyss is through the path right under your feet. I've already mastered the method to get out, so I will assist you."
"Really? That's great to hear!"
Darren exclaimed in elation. Even the Rule Soul Avatar, who had been silent all this time, also felt thrilled and relieved at the same time.
"Thank you, Yama. You're such a great help." Darren bowed to show his respect and gratitude.
"Don't thank me yet. If you want to go out, you still have to pass through the tomb outside. I will need to control this creature that is coming from the broken body part of Sheffield to help you leave. However, about half of the chains that restrain him have been broken. You should still be on guard if ever a dangerous situation should arise," Yama strictly warned.
"Wait a minute…" Jenifer's eyes narrowed a little as if she was puzzled by something. "If you have a way to control this creature, why don't you just use him to get revenge?"
"That's actually a good idea, but I'm afraid that it's impossible to do. The method that I have learned only allows him to stay in this passageway or inside the tomb. Once he gets out, all the restrictions that bind him will also be removed. At that moment, no one will be able to control him, unless a supreme god appears," Yama explained.
"I see. Is the method to control the creature left by Supreme God Braxton?" Jenifer asked after she had a hunch while listening to Yama's explanation.
