Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 49

After emerging from the field, Darren did not immediately return to the Ilmen Sect. Instead, he prepared to kill some powerful diabolic beasts to enhance his talent.

This was the central area of the Barren Wasteland, where there was a larger concentration of diabolic beasts compared to the periphery.

Darren walked around in search of these beasts. A few steps later, Darren came across a level two diabolic beast.

It was much more powerful than level nine normal beast. It was rare for a Spirit Realm cultivator at the third or fourth stage to defeat one of these.

"Aha! How fast this thing runs!"

The diabolic beast had sensed Darren and could tell that Darren wanted to kill it. So it bolted away immediately.

Quickly, Darren chased it without hesitation. He mobilized the demonic internal force in his body and hit it with a palm strike, and the level two diabolic beast was killed on the spot.

"Huh, the power of the demonic internal force is even stronger than the internal force of the sword and blade!"

Darren said as he looked at the beast's corpse with great satisfaction. As soon as his activated his mind, a green light floated onto Darren's head.

"Well, the skill of this beast was quite strong! The light has even turned into a green color. After I've absorbed it, my skill has increased considerably!" Darren beamed, overjoyed.

But a moment later, he frowned slightly.

"Oh, no, because I just used the demonic internal force, a small scale has grown on my abdomen!"

Darren said, realizing this as he examined himself.

"It seems that I can't use the demonic internal force at will until I have completely cultivated the second stage of the Nine Changes of the Demon," Darren decided.

If he used the demonic internal force at will, his body would morph into a demon bit by bit. If he was found by other cultivators, he would definitely be thought as a fiend himself. This would mean constant trouble following him everywhere.

Darren took the diabolic beast's cardiac core and absorbed the spiritual energy from it. After that, he wiped off the scale that had emerged on his skin.

In this way, Darren unconsciously spent a month in the Barren Wasteland killing beasts. In his wake were entire fields of diabolic beast corpses.

In the dense forest, Darren was absorbing the spiritual energy from a five-level diabolic beast when a brilliant light shone in his eyes. His breath changed greatly and he entered a more calm and restrained state.

"Up to now, I have absorbed the talent and cardiac cores of at least one hundred low-level diabolic beasts. But now these low-level diabolic beasts can't help to improve my talent anymore."

Darren could only feel that everything within three miles was within his scope of exploration, and he did not know how much his talent had grown.

"Could it be true that my talent has reached the edge of the Earth Degree?" Darren was very excited when he considered this possibility. There was no cultivator with talent at the Earth Degree in Doriath.

With the tremendous improvements of his talent, Darren began to cultivate the Superior Martial Skills in his memory.

"Profound Nine Sword Skills, the third move, the fourth move..."

He cultivated the skills one after another. Only six hours later, he had successfully comprehended the first eight moves of the Profound Nine Sword Skills. If he kept practicing them over time, he would be able to understand them perfectly.

Next, he spent a few more hours focused on cultivating the Grand Thirteen Blade Skills to the twelfth stage!

If anyone else knew that he had comprehended two Superior Martial Skills in such a short time, they would be completely amazed! After all, this was unheard of!

"Huh, the last moves of the two skills are both extremely difficult. My present capabilities are far from enough to get started on them!"

The last moves of the two skills were similar, like an aggregate of the previous moves. If he comprehended the last stage, the boundaries of the moves would be vague, which meant if he used these skills in fight, all the moves would be concentrated in one single move. Then, the power of the hit would be enhanced beyond several levels.

After comprehending the two skills, Darren checked his realm.

"After absorbing so many cardiac cores of the diabolic beasts, my realm has increased three stages!" Darren remarked, delighted. Furthermore, he found that his cultivation base was now at the fifth stage of the Spirit Realm!

When he went to the Spirit Realm, it would be more difficult to improve his realm. In fact, it was not unusual for cultivators with the level nine Yellow Degree talent to take at least ten years to move up a single stage of the realm.

For example, the Chief Elder of the Chu Clan, who had been gifted with level nine Yellow Degree talent, reached the Spirit Realm at the age of twenty-eight. At the age of eighty, he was now still at the sixth stage!

However, Darren had upgraded three stages of his realm in only a month!

If those geniuses of the Ilmen Sect with Black Degree talents knew about such an unusual fast improving speed, they would certainly be frightened. Even though they had always been soaked in herbs and elixirs as they matured, they could only improve one stage of their realms in a year.
