Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 678

"Are you sure you want to go out now? If you choose just to stay here, after you become a holy warrior, you might still have a chance to go out," the old man implored anticipating for Darren's decision.

"Sir, could you please let me know what kind of road it is before I make a decision? Why is it so hard to get out of here?" Darren asked and requested a favor from the old man.

"Okay, come with me,"

the old man said and led Darren to walk out of the world of corpses.

After walking for a while, they came to another door. Darren noticed that the old man, by this time, looked grave. It could be seen that the old man was hesitant, especially when he raised his hand and wanted to open the door, but then took it back momentarily.

"Father, don't open the door."

Appearing from behind them, Orval followed them all this time and rubbed the old man's hand.

"It's okay. Take a step back and stay away from this door." With a reassuring glance, the old man touched Orval's head. The latter then, understanding what his godfather meant by such a gesture, nodded, and ran away in a panic.

With a squeak from the door being pushed by the old man's trembling hands, Darren froze in silence and anticipated on what lay behind that door.

Soon enough, as the old man pushed a little harder, the vintage door was opened.

Exceedingly curious and sweating in excitement, Darren, together with the old man, entered in a flash—at breakneck speed even.

Clatter! Clank!

As the door closed behind them, it was utterly dark that Darren could not see anything. The sound of waves spread to his ears and made him vigilant at once.

"Sir, I cannot see anything, and my spiritual sense cannot detect anything either," Darren verbalized to the old man.

"Keep quiet and just wait," the old man said in a severe tone. A slight hush was evident in his voice as if he was waiting for something just to swallow them whole.

Listening intently to the sound of the waves, Darren felt that his eardrums were about to be broken. His whole body went limp, and an aura of blood and darkness enveloped him completely.

After waiting for a long time, a speck of light finally lit up ahead of them. At the sight of it, Darren's spirits were somewhat lifted, and the anxiousness that he had with him since he entered the door was gradually vanquished.

As the light spread across space, Darren adjusted his sight and saw an endless surging sea in front of him. Huge waves soared straight into the sky—almost kissing the clouds as they rose.

However, to his horror, Darren took a step back unconsciously, because the sea that he thought was filled with water was actually a real sea of blood!

To add more to his horror, Darren saw that in the middle of the blood sea, eight people were kneeling on the ground. Above them, a person was tied up by many blood-red chains.

"I'll fly there to have a look," Darren said without even thinking. He was so dumbfounded by the scene that he couldn't think rationally.
