Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 106

With Elsa in his arms, Darren tried his best to escape.

Suddenly, he sensed someone coming. He had an unmistakably powerful aura. Worse, he was coming for him.

'What should I do?' Darren thought in panic. Considering his current strength, the most sensible thing to do was to run away. He was not fit enough to fight someone who was above the sixth stage of the Mysterious Realm.

'Oh no, he's coming!' he thought as he felt a chill creep up his spine.

The figure started to approach him.

"Are you trying to get away, brat?" said the old man from far away. Concentrating his strength in his palm, he hit the lad with it.

Bang!

Despite his best efforts to dodge the blow, Darren was hit strong and hard. He spat out blood immediately on impact.

"He is still alive? Looks like this bastard is stronger than I expected," the old man said in surprise. He then gave Darren a more powerful strike.

'Damn it! He is running towards the forbidden area. I must kill him with my next blow!' the old man thought with creased eyebrows. A while later, he found himself closer to his prey approaching a dusty palace with a hundred-foot-tall door covered by mysterious runes.

"Go to hell!" the old man cursed as he threw a fist at Darren. His punch contained eighty percent of his power.

The vital energy the blow carried caused the dust on the ground to float in the air and shoot towards Darren.

Flustered, Darren tried to concentrate. The demon core inside his elixir field started to stir. He planned to use his demonic power to withstand the upcoming blow.

'It looks like that palace is some forbidden area. Perhaps I can hide there, ' Darren thought as the edifice caught his eye.

"Get lost!"

Suddenly, just as Darren dashed towards the entrance of the building, a powerful shout resounded. He spat blood again.

Two middle-aged men appeared at the front door, blocking him from entering. They were even stronger than the man chasing after him.

All the while, the tremendous vital energy the elder behind him released was still coming at him. He found himself trapped. He could not find a way to escape his fate at that moment.

"Stop or we will kill you!"

the more powerful man boomed again. His shout was enough to make Darren spit blood again. Darren felt that his bones almost crushed because of its power.

'This is not good. I'm going to die, ' Darren thought in desperation.

Seeing the injured Elsa in his arms, he decided to pull himself together. He had to survive this. Wasting no time, he activated his demon core. He took the black armor he got from Wayne out of his Space Ring and put it on.

In a flash, he was covered in black scales and sharp spikes appeared on his back.

Bang!

Darren got punched and was thrown into the air.

The faces of the two middle-aged men darkened with terror when they saw Darren flying at the door filled with runes.

"Shit!" the two cursed. Darren flew towards the door. Apparently, they could not cross the line drawn with blood on the ground before them.

Before Darren hit the door, however, he was stopped by an invisible, soft wall and fell to the ground.

"Thank God he didn't break in there," the two middle-aged men said in relief.

Joseph's grandfather stopped in his tracks and squinted his eyes to get a better view of what happened.

"That little bastard fell right at the edge of the forbidden area. Still, it seems that he is still alive!" he murmured.

"Frank, I don't care why you're after him. Get out of here! Anyone who gets close to the forbidden area must die," one of the middle-aged men warned sternly, addressing the old man. The two middle-aged men each released an enormously strong aura as a sign to ward him off.

Frank Wu snorted. "That brat did such a horrible thing to my grandson. He must die today. You two are responsible for guarding the forbidden area and you can't cross that blood line, but I can. What will you do with me if I barge in, eh?" he replied coldly.

"Don't be stupid. There is a reason why this place is forbidden. You know what will happen if people get inside!" the guards reminded.

Frank contemplated for a while before saying, "I will kill him the moment he goes out of there."

Then, he turned around and drew a wicked smile. He then bellowed, "Omnipotent Talent Skill, Angry Sea Wave!"

An overwhelming wave of vital energy shot towards Darren who was sprawled on the ground.

Darren held Elsa closer to his chest, as he looked at her pale face with immense sadness in his eyes.
