Darren was confused. The purple devil had already sworn to believe in him but became so aggressive all of a sudden.
At the moment, an enormous black vortex appeared in the sky, accompanied by the blinding flash of lightning. The scene looked so ferocious and terrifying.
The whole place was thrown into chaos by the hurricane.
"What?"
Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar looked up at the same time.
Much to their surprise, a pair of dark gold eyes suddenly appeared in the deep vortex. The aura of the eyes was cold and ruthless enough to make everyone tremble.
"Is that a chief god?"
Darren murmured. While he was stunned, the Rule Soul Avatar's silvery eyes were activated spontaneously.
The pair of dark gold eyes looked so shocking. They were very similar to the eyes of the chief god that Darren had seen before.
This time, the clouds surged like a tide.
The pair of dark gold eyes gradually condensed and released a force that pierced through the world.
"Run!" shouted the Rule Soul Avatar.
He then activated the laws with all his strength to hide Darren's whereabouts.
Darren was utterly shocked. He simply wanted to recruit a believer. It never occurred to him that he would be suppressed like this.
The force that pierced through the world was too rapid and violent. Despite the Rule Soul Avatar's efforts to hide Darren, it still came close to Darren in an instant.
The Rule Soul Avatar rushed over and stood behind Darren. He released two streams of Resurrection Forces that immediately enveloped him and Darren at the same time.
Bang!
It was just a single blow, but the body of the Rule Soul Avatar was not able to withstand it. The attack of the force broke him into pieces.
The force didn't decrease its momentum. It smashed Darren into pieces too.
Fortunately, the Rule Soul Avatar had prepared well for this kind of situation. His Resurrection Forces protected his and Darren's souls. That was the most important thing. Because as long as their souls were intact, their bodies would come back to life again.
Since the Rule Soul Avatar and Darren were already defeated, their souls quickly went to the depths of the ground.
It was the only way to prevent their souls from being crushed by that force.
"That was close," Darren said with a sigh.
He and the Rule Soul Avatar had reached the deep underground and passed through the hot magma.
They were lucky enough that they were able to escape.
If that force's attack forcefully targeted them, even their souls would have shattered. Perhaps their opponent had underestimated them.
While they were in the hot magma, the Rule Soul Avatar used all his hiding skills. He and Darren just hid there quietly.
Since their opponent in the sky couldn't detect their auras, he thought that they had already died from his attack. So he didn't continue searching for them.
This time, Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar sat cross-legged in the magma and began to recover.
It took them half a year to finally recover.
"Phew!"
Darren opened his eyes. When he remembered that pair of eyes they had seen, he felt a flutter of fear at the base of his heart.
"Rule Soul Avatar, do you think it was a chief god?" he asked.
The Rule Soul Avatar woke up from his meditation and thought for a while. He then shook his head and said, "No."
"Are you sure?" Confusion was written all over Darren's face.
"Yes. The pressure of a chief god is much stronger." The Rule Soul Avatar had felt the pressure of chief gods before, so he could distinguish the difference of the pressure they felt from that pair of dark gold eyes from the chief gods.
Darren nodded silently. He believed the Rule Soul Avatar's words.
"But I think he has some sort of connection with the chief gods. Maybe he is an avatar of one of them."
It was said that this abyss was the hometown of a chief god. It was indeed possible that he left an avatar here to protect this place.
"You have a point."
The two of them continued to cultivate for a while before they decided to walk out of the underground.
They hid their whereabouts carefully for a long time. But after making sure that no one had noticed them, they became a little less cautious.
