Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 1493

The arrival of Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar grabbed the attention of the people in black robes.

Wisps of god's sense fell on them from time to time but disappeared without a trace.

"These people are all deputy gods," the Rule Soul Avatar said in a low voice.

"Yes, they're probably powerful human masters who go to guard the graveyard," Darren said in an equally serious tone.

Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar stood still for a long while. While they didn't sense any hostility from these black-robed figures, they were still wary. Finally, the black-robed figures hurried off towards the depths of the Depression Hill.

With that, Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar decided to move on. The two of them followed a black-robed cultivator in the distance and walked silently.

The man in the black robe they followed kept walking for days on end, so Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar did not dare to fly. It might be a rule here that shouldn't be broken.

Half a month later, Darren saw a massive black tower in the distance.

"That's the entrance to the cemetery!" he cried excitedly.

From afar, Darren saw that the black-robed figure entered the black tower, submerged with mist.

The two decided to wait and see if anything would happen, but days later, the black figure still hadn't emerged. Darren then raised his head and looked up. The sky was as dark as ink. The moist air was interlaced with the smell of rotten plants. The whole place was eerily quiet. To Darren's surprise, there wasn't even a whisper of the wind.

Even at his level of strength, he couldn't help but shiver anxiously.

"Let's go, my real body." At least, the Rule Soul Avatar was still calm.

Darren nodded meekly and walked side by side with the Rule Soul Avatar. However, in order not to make people feel suspicious, the Rule Soul Avatar covered his appearance, so that outsiders could distinguish him from his real body, Darren.

Steadily, the two approached the black tower. Even from thousands of feet away, Darren could tell there seemed to be a deep history in this place. As soon as they got closer to the black tower, Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar were greeted by another scene.

The inky black sky had opened up into a light gray. But it was no longer silent. From the gray clouds, violent roars could be heard from time to time. There were dragon-like shadows passing through the gray clouds, along with other unknown flying creatures. They opened their wings and their massive shadows covered Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar.

"I feel a weight in my chest. What about you?" Darren turned his head to look at the Rule Soul Avatar. He didn't feel any literal pressure, but nonetheless he felt uneasy and a little out of breath.

"I feel the same way," the Rule Soul Avatar said monotonously.

"Maybe it's because I'm not used to this place. Let's go inside first."

Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar quickened their pace until they reached the gate of the black tower.

"Please halt."

Two wisps of smoke swirled around the gate and then condensed into two black-robed figures.

With a serious look on his face, Darren cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Sir, we are here to guard the cemetery. Please allow us to enter."

"No, you can't enter,"

one of the guards in the black robes said in a firm tone. His voice exuded unquestionable authority.

It was a rule that no one was allowed to enter the supreme gods' cemetery unless they were deputy gods.

"He is the Territory Enfeoffing Emperor of the Chu Clan. Does that make him qualified to enter?" the Rule Soul Avatar said suddenly.

The two guards in black robes trembled at first, and then quickly regained their composure.

"No one can enter without reaching the Deputy God Realm," they said firmly.

After saying that, two streams of black gas spiraled out of the bodies of the two men in black robes at the same time, forming an illusory dragon shadow which shot towards Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar.

Darren gasped. The enormous pressure made him feel like his bones were on the brink of breaking.

The pressure emanating from the two guards in black robes far exceeded that from Todd and Murray.

"We'd better retreat now,"

Darren whispered to the Rule Soul Avatar.

After Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar retreated a couple of thousands of feet, the two guards in black robes disappeared into a black mist.

Darren looked up at the gray sky gloomily. Before he came there, it had slipped his mind that he was not at the Deputy God Realm. It was true that he was unqualified to step into the supreme gods' cemetery.
