They felt like thunder-struck, painful as if their hearts had been stabbed hard by sharp needles. The Shadow Emperor's hidden message among those words was that Darren was dead already. They must learn to survive and live without him from that moment on.
On the other end, outside the Ancient Void Battlefield, the surging and tumbling magma layer finally subsided, and a blackened body was quietly lying at the bottom of the magma layer.
If only the blackened body could move only about two meters further, it would get out of the magma layer safely. Yet by the look of it, the body might have lost its strength during the last minute and had been entirely covered by the hot magma.
"Roar!" A loud and furious roar could be heard from the place far away.
At that very minute, streams of black runes immediately wrapped the blackened body, engulfing and covering the entity as if the flames were hungered to deluge the being.
Out of nowhere, a little boy with tender and ferocious face showed up abruptly in front of the body, while his dark and deep eyes were staring at the body, and he looked outraged.
After a few moments, the little boy's arm, which was formed by the black runes, was fumbling something in the magma, not minding the heat. It was as if he was just playing with sand. Yet, on his face cast a look that was somewhat anxious and fretful.
Bang!
Misty fumes of smoke spiraled in the air. Soon enough, a colossal scarlet arm shuttled through the magma at a breakneck speed and appeared in front of the little boy. Apparently, the scarlet arm tried to stop the little boy from finding the thing he was looking for.
It grabbed and dragged him swiftly away from the bubbling magma. In a flash, the little boy was being pulled away from the blackened body.
"Arrgh! Arrgh! Arrgh!"
Three painful and pitiful sounds rang out abruptly. It was from Aaron, the little boy. He wanted to save the blackened body so much. Thus, he created waves of black runes again and quickly used them to form into a big black arm, which was the same size as the scarlet arm. The black arm soon dashed towards the scarlet arm. A commotion began, and soon the two hands were struggling, fighting each other.
Bang! The two arms collided against each other instantly.
After the first collide, the big arm formed by the black runes was almost crushed. Meanwhile, due to the impact of the collision, a whirlpool thousand kilometers in diameter showed up in the entire magma sea.
Dark and furious light flashed across Aaron's eyes. He grimaced with great hatred, and suddenly his fingers were turned to a sharp claw which soon thrust into his own heart.
When the claw came out of his body, a pitch-black heart was in his hand with dark-red blood dripping from the pulsating heart.
By the look on his face, it appeared that Aaron remarkably felt excruciating pain. Yet, he didn't have the time to deal with it now. Instantly, he squeezed the heart that was in his hands so hard that it soon was pulverized. Much of the powdered-heart gathered together, turned into a light, and dived into the black giant palm created by the black runes.
The next moment, the black palm being reinforced with limitless destructive power, once again, bombarded an attack to the scarlet giant arm!
