Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 100

The others were all gone now. Darren's heart was suddenly at peace as he thought of the future.

He did not want to leave hastily, since the people from Blade Holy Land would not come for him in a short while.

Darren kept striding forward until he entered that bamboo cottage on the highest peak.

"Alas, the two masters died in rescuing me. I feel distraught at this." Darren could not help feeling melancholic after he stepped foot in the cottage. Though he had just met that two old men for a short time, he felt that they were nicer and warmer than all the elders in the family.

"If it hadn't been for Mr. Wan's treasure, I would have been dead. But I know I can do better if I'm stronger," Darren sighed.

"Mr. Wan is a rule cultivator. What exactly is that? How could a rule cultivator create such a formidable treasure?"

Darren thought of the rune which made his sword intent over a thousand times stronger. It had taken his breath away! He had never expected that a rule cultivator could be this powerful.

Just imagine a rule cultivator with a higher level than Mr. Wan's. If the rune he made was used by a master of the Wonder Realm, how mighty could the effect be? When thinking of that, Darren decided that he needed to search for information about rule cultivators.

"Right now, the most important thing I need to do is to advance my power and cultivation base. However, having not yet fused the blade and sword intents is an obstacle of the advancement of the cultivation base. It's perfectly fine when I am at Mysterious Realm, but things are going to get difficult if I still haven't fused the blade and sword intents when I am in the Wonder Realm."

Darren took out the parchment scroll Mathew left him while he was still thinking of it. He had not had the opportunity to check on it until now.

"Talent Roll? Mr. Xiao mentioned the Talent Roll as well."

Darren's curiosity was spurred at the first glance of these several characters.

"Darren, if you desire to fuse the sword intent and blade intent, you need to develop your own blade intent and forge it into blade core, in which case you will have the opportunity to merge it with sword intent. And the key of the fusion of blade intent and sword intent is the Primitive Stone, which can only be found inside the Raksa Sea. The search will definitely be a hard trip!

Even entering the Raksa Sea is no easy task. The simplest way to get into it is to be ranked among top 100 in Talent Roll, in which case you shall be granted a pass to enter it. There are other ways, but they all are extremely difficult, so I won't tell you."

...

In the following two hours, Darren finished reading Mathew's letter, which dictated things Darren needed to remember.

But its description about Talent Roll was not detailed. Luckily for Darren, that ancient scroll Hailey left for him could serve the purpose.

"How truly fortunate I am! I have obtained what I need most at the moment." Darren shook his head, not knowing if it was because of luck or fate.

Darren opened the ancient scroll and read through the entirety of it, not missing a single detail.

The Talent Roll was a record of the extremely talented cultivators since ancient times, a contextual description of the rise and fall of every era.

"Vernon Zhu, the talent who ranked fifth on the Talent Roll 80 thousand years ago, reached Grand Realm at the age of 18 and had a holy body at the age of 22. Yet he disappeared from the face of the earth since he went to fight in the battle on a demonic land at the age of 25. In the following 7 thousand years, no man's talent could surpass his."

This was what the Talent Roll said about a peerless talent.

In the same time he learned that the Talent Roll was divided into the Sky Chart and the Earth Chart. The talents on the Earth Chart were extraordinary warriors. The Sky Chart solely contained 5 slots, any of which might not be occupied in a thousand years.

"Finick Feng, the talent who ranked third on the Talent Roll 70 thousand years ago, reached Grand Realm at the age of 15 and had a holy body at the age of 20. In the same year he was abducted by a divine force from the above and then disappeared into the void."

"Cheryl Hu, the talent who ranked top on the Talent Roll 69 thousand years ago..."

Lots of the peerless talents from ancient times were recorded. Darren only read the information of several of them briefly.

"The Talent Roll is a record of the peerless talents of the last one hundred thousand years and the names on the Sky Chart are only a few thousand. It seems that it will be really quite difficult to get my name on that list."

It was hard for him to believe that there was one who already had earned a slot on the Sky Chart in his time. And the name was 'John Doe'. One of the basic requirements of getting on that list was that one must be under 30. Darren deemed that this 'John Doe' had indeed been a very formidable person.

"Right now, I merely rank behind the 10000th on the Earth Chart, forget about the Sky Chart! I wonder if I will be able to see my name on that Sky Chart after my fusion of blade and sword intents."

Darren felt his blood churning whenever he thought about the legends of these peerless talents. He was eager to obtain a slot and see his name on the Talent Roll!
