"Hump! You are as weak as an ant! Do you think you can win in a fight against me?" Although the blade cultivator sensed Darren's incredible strength, he still taunted him.
Darren's avatars confronted the cold blade intent formed by the Omnipotent Talent Skill. The shock of the impact caused the underground palace to tremble, and the black pungent lake water to surge as though it was the end of the world.
"What?" The blade cultivator was shocked by the result. The attack by Darren's avatars had weakened his Omnipotent Talent Skill by more than half.
"How powerful is his body? This guy is extraordinary!"
In the brief moment that the blade cultivator lamented over his opponent's strength, a figure shot toward him. Intense blade intent and sword intent enveloped the blade cultivator.
Surprised, the blade cultivator swung his blade wildly and released his blade intent. What astonished him was that even though his blade cultivation had reached the high level of preliminary blade intent, he had merely balanced his opponent's integrated power of the blade intent and the sword intent. Anxiety coursed through the blade cultivator. 'Considering his current strength, this guy is just a little bit weaker than I am. If he has any other powerful skills, he will defeat me!
It is remarkable, though. I can sense that this guy is at the top level of the ninth stage of the Mysterious Realm. And yet, he has such excellent fighting strength. It is incredible and shocking!' the blade cultivator surmised.
At that moment, Darren appeared to be at ease, but his body was in terrible pain. He had been injured by the blade cultivator's powerful blade intent. However, he had no other choice but to fight back. At his current cultivation strength, it was difficult for him to kill a cultivator at the middle stage of the Wonder Realm. Even if he could win the battle after a long hard fight, Darren would not have any effective way to kill his opponent if his opponent decided to flee.
'I have to kill him quickly. Other stronger cultivators may have noticed the strong force that was caused by the fight a moment ago. If they come to the blade cultivator's aid, I will be doomed, ' Darren thought.
Although he was fighting with the blade cultivator, Darren contemplated his options.
'Well, how about my spiritual attack?' The idea occurred to Darren. Although he did not learn any real skills of spiritual attacking, his Spirit Power had reached the eighteenth level. He could gain an advantage in this fight if he leveraged his Spirit Power.
Without further hesitation, Darren used his spiritual sense to release a powerful Spirit Power attack and aimed it at the blade cultivator.
A Spirit Power attack was different from a mind attack as the former was aimed at a person's soul.
'What? What is that? Is this guy a rule cultivator as well?' The blade cultivator felt a sharp pain in his head, which lasted only a split second.
Darren had not learned a real Spirit Power attack skill, so he could only release a little Spirit Power. The damage from his attack was thus, limited as well. Nevertheless, Darren only needed this short moment to find his opponent's fighting weakness.
Darren waved his sword and released its maximum sword power. The sword pierced the blade cultivator in the gut while his blade cut into the cultivator's back.
"Ah!" The blade cultivator screamed as pain coursed through him. Then he turned and swung his blade in Darren's direction, like a wild animal. This move by the blade cultivator was much stronger than usual.
Darren stepped back abruptly. To defend against the blade cultivator's attack, he controlled one of his two remaining avatars to step in front of him.
Bang!
The attack destroyed one of Darren's avatars. Although the blade intent with piercing coldness had weakened significantly, it still injured Darren's body.
Darren winced in agony when he felt the impact of the blow wound his insides. In the next moment, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"Spirit Power attack!" Darren clenched his teeth and released his Spirit Power at its maximum force. He felt dizzy and faint. This excessive consumption of his Spirit Power had drained him tremendously.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" The blade cultivator felt immense pain deep in his soul. The unbearable agony distracted him, and the blade cultivator was now forced to resist Darren's attacks with the power of his spiritual sense.
At that moment, Darren's last avatar and his body emanated strong blade intent and sword intent together. Like two black arrows, they shot toward the blade cultivator at high speed.
Shoop, shoop!
The effort taken to deliver such a powerful attack left Darren feeling as though his organs had turned into pulp.
The blade cultivator's eyes opened wide with disbelief. He never expected to be defeated and killed by a young man at the Mysterious Realm.
Splash!
The lifeless body of the blade cultivator fell into the black lake.
Darren also dove into the water and searched for the middle-aged man he had saved previously. He had probed to ensure that the man was Elder Thomas. However, Elder Thomas had been trapped by the rule cultivator in a way that would force him to attack his savior.
After he found Elder Thomas, Darren released him from the entrapment and then flew out of the lake.
