When Darren heard Carey speaking, he didn't care that the rule cultivators had crossed into the array. He immediately turned his head to look at Carey and asked, "Did you succeed, young master?"
"I still need about an hour. You have to protect me until then!" Beads of sweat were running down Carey's face. Clearly, he was at the most crucial moment of the inheritance.
"Okay. Don't worry, young master. I will try my best to keep you safe." Darren let out a small sigh of relief after hearing the young master's words.
Carey didn't reply. He fell silent as he concentrated on his inheritance breakthrough. But before that, he employed another small defensive array to safeguard himself. This was another treasure that Carey had brought to protect his life.
Seeing that the fifteen rule cultivators were about to enter, Darren didn't have the time to think. He rushed out without a second thought, and at the same time, he put a considerable amount of his Spirit Power into the crystal ball to activate the power of the portion of the master's soul.
Earlier, only Carey could activate the crystal ball as he was the master's biological son. But when Carey gave the crystal ball to Darren, he removed this restriction so that Darren's Spirit Power could also activate the crystal ball.
"Huh? The impostor is approaching us! Come on. Let's kill him!"
Seeing that Darren was out, the fifteen powerful rule cultivators used their rule power to launch attacks at him with all their might.
All kinds of powerful weapons, blades, hurricanes, Shackle Runes, and even thunder were aimed at Darren, in unison.
Darren was now facing over ten different kinds of attacks!
To the rule cultivators' surprise, Darren didn't dodge. They didn't know that he had already released the power of the small part of the master's soul.
Rumble!
With a loud sound, a horrifying strong aura appeared.
The rule cultivators gasped in fright when they sensed the frightening aura. It was so intense that they almost stopped breathing.
"It... It's our master!"
"No! It's the master's soul power!"
The rule cultivators were so stunned by the figure that had been condensed by the power that they almost fell to the ground in fear.
"Don't panic! The impostor must have gotten the young master's treasure. Come on, continue the attacks!" The most powerful elder was the first to realize what was happening. He immediately ordered everyone else to continue bombarding Darren. Hearing his order, the other cultivators snapped out of their trance.
"Whoever attacks my son will die!"
the master's figure spat out these words in a stone-cold voice. Under the control of Darren's Spirit Power, several soul attacks were launched at the rule cultivators.
"Ahhhhh!"
Ten powerful rule cultivators cried out in pain. After a short while, they exploded. To be more precise, their souls couldn't take the intensity of the attacks, and so, they burst.
Seeing this, Darren couldn't help but be secretly surprised. After all, the power of a few attacks from a fragment of the master's soul was so strong that it immediately killed ten powerful rule cultivators! 'How powerful is the master?' Darren couldn't help but wonder.
In the blink of an eye, there were only five elders left. The only reason these five survived the attacks was that one of the elders had mastered a rule formula that could resist soul attacks. He then used this formula to protect himself and four other rule cultivators.
"Step back, and let me try!"
After the attacks settled, one of the elders stepped forward and firmly instructed the surviving elders.
"He only has the power of a portion of our master's soul. Let me kill him!"
This elder happened to have mastered another rule formula that could kill souls.
Shoop! Shoop! Shoop!
Right as the elder was speaking, the shadow of the Red Inferno Sect's master re-launched new soul attacks.
"Back off! All of you. Third Elder, kill him!" The elder who had just saved their lives stepped forward again. He stood in front of the others and used his skill to resist the attacks.
Meanwhile, the Third Elder remained silent as he focused on starting the rule formula. A violet-green light ball made of runes appeared in his hand. He planned to throw the ball at the master's shadow.
'Ha! Do you really think that you can resist my attack?' Darren mocked in his mind. A cold smirk grew on his face when he realized that the elders were so busy resisting the attacks from the soul shadow that they had completely forgotten about him.
"Hurricane Teleportation Skill!" After summoning the teleportation skill, Darren disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, he reappeared in front of the five elders. Not only that, he had activated the avatar skill as well. Now, besides his real body, eight of Darren's avatars also stood before the elders.
