"Ha-ha." The old man chuckled and said, "No, he was just at the top level of a seven-star grand warrior."
"What? Is that true?" asked Darren in surprise. Though he was a bit in doubt, his eyes eventually lit up. He was glad to hear that such a warrior at the top level of a seven-star grand warrior was able to live up to the challenge.
"That simply means I still have a chance and not just a slim chance but a fat one. Yet, I couldn't understand what's going on? Why the holy warriors could not get out of here, but a seven-star grand warrior did manage to escape. Can you make it clear for me, sir?" probed Darren, that was, even though he saw a glimmer of hope. After learning from the old man that someone was able to get out from the holy emperor's heart, Darren believed that he could also do the same. He relied on his belief that if another person could, why couldn't he.
"He was such a powerful person. You are way much weaker than him, Darren," discouraged the old man.
"Why am I much weaker than him? What made you say so, sir?" Darren sought an answer hurriedly as he was a bit intimidated by the old man's words.
"First of all, that dude had a bulky body built from the Remote Age; thus, his body was terribly strong. Secondly, he had grasped seven extreme martial arts skills. If he had used all of his strength, he could have killed an inferior holy warrior at his top level or have run away after attacking face to face with a junior holy warrior for three times. Now tell me, do you think he is strong or not? What do you think?"
After hearing such an explanation, Darren kept his silence. In his mind, he just played on the thought of how terrifying that man would be.
After all, he couldn't even defeat a cultivator who had mastered ninety percent of the Fringe Holy Will. How much more facing an inferior holy warrior without a soul, he had no chance to escape, let alone fight.
"Alas, I guess only Hanson and Mathew can compete with such a powerful person," Darren murmured, diverting the conversation away from him and the fact that he was so inferior.
"Who are you talking about? Mathew? Hanson? Who are they? How can they compete with that guy?" At the mention of the names, the old man suddenly grew interested. It was the fact that those mentioned by Darren had the strength tantamount to that man, that made the old man ask out of curiosity.
"Ah, Mathew and Hanson, they were both very unique and talented. Mathew has comprehended the extreme killing sword intent and has an invincible Killing Domain. I'm afraid no one among the seven-star grand warriors can defeat him. As far as I know, he can kill an inferior holy warrior," Darren blabbered, feeding the old man's inquiring mind.
"Master!" The old man used one word to describe Mathew after he heard Darren's description. That was what he thought would be the perfect word to describe Mathew.
"As you said, Mathew indeed has the qualification to compete with that guy who got out of the Mythological Palace," the old man added. He was somehow high-spirited at the thought that Darren knew of a person who was almost or even on the same level as the man.
