Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 1006

In the midst of crisis, Darren realized that he had lost his avatar completely.

"Avatar, the ancestor is dying. We need your help!" Darren called out.

Next to him, the ancestor was dying. His body was riddled with holes after being stabbed several times by the tentacles.

"I swear to you in my name..."

All of a sudden, the avatar's cold voice surrounded them. But before he could even finish his oath, another tentacle shot out from the void, and a figure in white followed suit.

"Humph! My Spirit Power covers the entire sea. I've already seen how you used this trick to defeat the old ape. Do you dare use the same trick against me?" The voice of the Sea Spiritual King echoed around them.

With the Sea Spiritual King's strong soul and Spirit Power, he could clearly detect what had happened in this sea by the second.

Prior to their arrival, he was already aware of the battle between the humans and the old ape, but he refused to meddle with their affairs. However, he didn't expect for them to willingly come to him afterwards.

Therefore, he already knew their tricks, and he vowed to not fall for them. Particularly, he was wary of the strange Oath Rule. In fact, he had been preparing himself against the Rule Soul Avatar ever since they arrived.

"You have some skills. If you hadn't showed up, I wouldn't have caught you at all," the Sea Spiritual King sneered.

The Rule Soul Avatar was now helplessly entangled by ten black tentacles. He couldn't move at all.

"This is bad." Darren immediately regretted his actions. The avatar could have avoided capture if he didn't summon him in the first place. But now, there was nothing they could do. The Sea Spiritual King had the avatar in his grasp.

"Let them go," the avatar demanded. The tone in his voice was cold and menacing.

"How dare you order me? What makes you think I will just let you all go?"

"Of course you will. You covet the Oath Rule for yourself," the avatar replied.

A look of surprise crossed the Sea Spiritual King's face. It was as if this human had read his mind. Indeed, this human's Spirit Power was powerful too.

Then, the entire space shook.

Huge waves crested and fell as a dark shadow gradually formed into human-sized figure.

"I appreciate you very much. Now, pass the Oath Rule to me, and I shall spare your life." The Sea Spiritual King walked towards the Rule Soul Avatar.

"Let them go first." The avatar looked composed in face of the Sea Spiritual King's own eagerness to possess the Oath Rule. He knew that the Oath Rule was his only leverage against the Sea Spiritual King. With it, the latter would accept his requests.

"You want to save them? How about I kill all of them now?"

"You should know by now that your threats won't work on me."

The Sea Spiritual King narrowed his eyes at the avatar and said, "You are smarter than I thought. You can actually see through me. So now, I've changed my mind. I'll kill the two of them first."

"Go ahead." The Rule Soul Avatar's expression was void of any emotions as he continued, "You should know that I am an emotionless creature. Your decisions won't affect me at all. These people are essential to me. If you kill them, you will never get the Oath Rule even if I die."

These words shocked the Sea Spiritual King.

He did know that the Rule Soul Avatar was a ruthless and apathetic creature. This kind of creature had no human emotions and only cared about benefits.

"Human boy, you have won." The Sea Spiritual King finally conceded.

The Rule Soul Avatar was unable to hold back his sigh of relief upon hearing the Sea Spiritual King's remark. He didn't show it, but he was afraid that the Sea Spiritual King would end up killing his real body. If that happened, he would perish as well.

"Get out." With that, the Sea Spiritual King withdrew the tentacles and threw Darren, Hailey and the old man out of the sea.

"Now give the rule to me," the Sea Spiritual King demanded.

Meanwhile, outside the sea...
