Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 40

William went crazy when he saw his little brother killed by Darren's blade. Unable to control his fury, he charged at him.

Darren didn't expect the sudden burst of power. He just pondered at the possibility of using the blade and the sword at the same time. Everything just came out without him meaning to.

'I just got into the Spirit Realm and my body is still changing. If I hadn't used my sword skill and blade skill at the same time, I couldn't have killed the two martial artists who had been in the Spirit Realm for a long time!' Darren thought to himself. Even he was shocked with what happened.

He almost used up all his internal forces for the blade and the sword because of that massive blow. He was like a used gun running low on ammunition. What would he do if William, who was at the third stage of the Spirit Realm, attacked him?

Even though the odds currently weren't at his favor, Darren still wasn't very worried. Because he just graded up to the Spirit Realm, and there was still plenty of spiritual energy entering his body. He still had enough if he needed to defend himself.

Strong spiritual energy was filling him up quickly. He did his best to manage his newly absorbed spiritual energy. With it, he nourished his meridians and made a lot of internal force of blade and sword.

"Pffft!" Darren coughed blood out from his mouth.

The internal force of the blade and the internal force of the sword were fighting with each other, tearing his meridians apart. He could feel his meridians breaking one by one.

Darren couldn't imagine anything worse than what was happening right now. This could kill him! There was nothing left for him to do but fight for the chance to live.

"I want you dead! You have to die!"

William was now insanely angry. His eyes were bloodshot because of his rage. His vital energy of the third stage of the Spirit Realm exploded to every corner of the Life and Death Valley.

Darren stepped back.

In the blink of an eye, William was in front of Darren with the tip of his blade pointing towards him in a dangerous way.

The fact that William was currently overwhelmed with emotion worked for Darren as he could not focus on the fight one hundred percent. If not, it would have been impossible for Darren to dodge his blows.

As he avoided his blows, he absorbed his spiritual energy.

"It hurts..." Darren's body shook because of the pain. It was so painful it almost made him faint. Finally, after what felt like a century, he gathered enough internal force in his body.

"Profound Nine Sword Skills! Grand Thirteen Blade Skills!"

He used the blade and the sword together again.

Rumble!

The power of the blade and the power of the sword filled the whole Life and Death Valley like huge wave of water washing over it.

"You have to die!" William didn't even care to dodge. He just went after Darren like a madman.

He brandished his blade with a massive aura around it and rammed it straight towards Darren.

Rumble!

With another loud sound, the ears of the disciples above the valley who were in a lower realm than the Spirit Realm all started to ring. For a moment, it seemed like they lost their hearing ability.

Everyone was stunned into silence. Whether Darren was still alive or dead was beyond them!

A person who was at the ninth stage of the Primary Realm first killed a disciple who was in the Spirit Realm, and then got lifted into the Spirit Realm himself. After that, he killed two other disciples who were in the Spirit Realm. Now, he was fighting with another strong martial artist who was at the third stage of the Spirit Realm!

This was unbelievable! If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they never would have believed this! They had never heard of anyone as talented!

The chaos drew the elders' attention. They all went to where the two were fighting.

First to arrive was Thomas. In his opinion, Darren was bound to die. But at the same time, he felt curious as to how the turn of events would play out so he came to see it with his own eyes.

Unfortunately, though, the Life and Death Valley was covered in smoke. It was difficult to make out what was happening.

"Elder Thomas, what's going on right now?" Cody, a first disciple of the School of Sword Skill, asked with his eyebrows knitted into a frown.

"He won," Thomas simply said with eyes filled with disbelief and wonder.

"What do you mean by 'he'? Who are you talking about?" Cody asked impatiently. Even though he was at the ninth stage of the Spirit Realm, he still couldn't sense what was happening in the valley. Only martial artists as skilled as the elders could sense the situation there.

"Darren," he replied.

Cody's eyes widened in shock after hearing Thomas' words. Not that he didn't believe his elder, it was just so hard to believe what happened. Stunned he stared intensely down the valley even though he still couldn't see anything.

A little while later, the smoke subsided and everything became clear once again.

In the Life and Death Valley, Darren vomited blood very badly. He had one knee on the ground and he used the sword and the blade to support his body. He was clearly badly injured. What people did not know, however, was that this was because of the opposing internal forces inside his body.

In front of Darren was William's bloody, dead body.

Alan, who heard the news and rushed there, also saw it. The corners of his mouth twitched, but he couldn't say a word.
