Since the rising of his cultivation level had gotten out of his control, Darren decided not to stay outside. He needed to go back immediately and find the Rule Soul Avatar.
After all, he had already collected tens of thousands of kilograms of soul crystals. They must be enough to let the Rule Soul Avatar cure their uncle.
Darren didn't hesitate anymore. He flew directly towards the cave where the Rule Soul Avatar and the others were.
He was very careful not to meet any creatures along his way.
Once he met a creature hostile to him, he was likely to reach the Superior God Realm because of the intense killing intent.
During the first few days, Darren traveled safe and sound. However, on the tenth day, he fell into trouble.
Around three thousand kilometers away from him, he saw a huge race gathered. The path was his shortcut to go back to the cave. If he took a detour, he would definitely meet more abyss races.
Darren was in a dilemma. He had to pass by the path without being noticed by the race.
Then he suddenly thought of the underground.
Darren went under the ground like a steel needle, making sure that he wouldn't create any sound.
With his cultivation base, going underground was as easy as sinking into the water for him.
But he wasn't sure how deep he should go underground to avoid being detected by the race. Normally, a strong race could cover the space underground with their god's sense all the time. Otherwise, they would be doomed if there were other races sneaking attacks underneath.
Thus, Darren didn't stop going deeper. He kept descending for ten hours until he fell into the hot magma.
Since his body was the True Fire Spiritual Body, the scorching hot magma was not enough to burn him.
"I think I'm safe now,"
Darren said as he stopped and began to slowly move forward. He didn't dare to move too fast, so if he could feel a trace of god's sense, he could quickly dodge.
After walking forward for about a quarter of an hour, he didn't find anything unusual.
But far away, he saw a huge black sphere rolling in the hot magma ten kilometers in front of him.
"What's that?"
Darren observed carefully. He saw that from time to time, the huge black sphere burst out wisps of black mist with a destructive aura. They were like countless tentacles waving.
It gave him a very strange feeling. He wondered how there could be such a thing in the depths of the ground.
As it had piqued his curiosity, he tried to touch the black sphere with his god's sense.
When the wisp of his god's sense touched the black sphere, it suddenly spun faster. Then faint yellow mist burst out and converged with the black mist.
Darren found it so shocking.
He didn't know what the black mist was, but he remembered that the faint yellow mist was the Archean aura.
He recalled that the Archean relic found in the Tussle Region had come into being during the explosion of a sphere.
Now, he saw a sphere again and felt an Archean aura. This made him believe that this sphere was also a relic.
But if it was an Archean relic or not, he wasn't sure about it because this sphere emitted a kind of black mist that was completely different from the Archean aura.
The sphere was about several kilometers in diameter. However, considering Darren's current situation, he didn't want to find out more about it to avoid something untoward.
Eventually, he decided to move sideways to pass the sphere.
Several hours had passed. This time, Darren calculated the distance and figured that he was finally out of the race's territory.
But he didn't get out of the underground immediately. Instead, he kept moving forward, thinking that it was safer than traveling outside.
Some more time later, Darren finally felt that he was already near the place where the Rule Soul Avatar and the others were.
However, the closer he got to their location, the more uneasy he felt.
He sped up and leaped upward like a flying sword.
Splash!
He entered the lake and got to the cave.
