Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 1105

After three days of hard work, Darren finally eliminated the remaining godly energy from his body.

He didn't dare to absorb the herbs now as he knew that excess godly energy would cause his body to explode.

At this moment, Darren's attention was focused on the name of the fortress, Chu Space.

"How did this fortress get such a strange name?" He was puzzled and intrigued. After all, his full name was "Darren Chu." Could it be that the owner of this fortress had the same surname as him?

Of all the structures in this empty city, this fortress seemed to be the only special building. Therefore, Darren planned to explore the fortress first.

After taking a deep breath, he began to ascend the steps leading to the fortress' entrance.

Surprisingly enough, the gates creaked open even before he reached them.

A sense of foreboding filled Darren, and he cautiously pushed the grand door open.

Almost instantly, he encountered trouble. A gust of strong wind blew toward him! Fortunately, Darren dodged quickly. If the strong wind had caught him, it would have torn him to pieces.

Although he hadn't yet encountered any living creatures in the Godly City, there were hidden dangers everywhere. And now, it seemed as though even the wind was a threat. He couldn't let down his guard.

After a brief rest, Darren stepped through the gate.

It was dark, and there was no light behind the door.

"What?"

Darren felt strange as a peculiar breath rushed into his mind.

Almost instantly, agony coursed through him. He felt as if a hand was tearing his soul.

"Ah!"

He released an involuntary scream as pain flooded every inch of his body and soul. He tried to transfer all his strength to stop it.

But, the hand was almost invisible, and Darren's power couldn't touch it.

Helpless, he released his spiritual sense to communicate with the crystal in his mind. Darren had hoped that it would drive away the big hand that was tearing his soul.

Unfortunately, his plan didn't work. Darren was further shocked when he felt that the crystal in his mind couldn't be activated as it had been contained.

This was the first time that he was encountering such a peculiar situation.

"Damn it! Am I going to die here?"

The more forceful the invisible hand became, the more Darren felt as though his soul was about to leave his body.

If his soul were extracted, he would have only one end, death.

And Darren had no way to stop this from happening.

Buzz!

A dull vibration filled his head moments before all the pain in his body vanished.

He experienced lightness—like his soul was floating, and his body was falling.

"Am I dead..."

Darren panicked and struggled to return to his body, but a big hand grasped him from behind and stopped him.

Once he perceived that his soul had moved too far from his body, Darren stopped struggling.

On the Lothlann Continent

For the past few days, everything was tranquil on the continent.

A crystal filled with a golden light circled above the forbidden areas as it waited for the last two destroyers to arrive.

In the three palaces of the three cities—to the east, the west, and the north—brutal roars from the three destroyers, who were imprisoned, could be heard from time to time.

In the human Sacred Palace, Barnes sat with the witcher ancestor.

"Why should we wait since there is no doubt that the mysterious man will win this battle?" Barnes mumbled as he rubbed his forehead with one hand.

"Not necessarily." The witcher ancestor shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Barnes shot him a curious look.

"Don't you think that all this has been arranged?"

"So what?" Anxious and unable to understand where the witcher ancestor was going with his argument, Barnes jumped up and said, "The mysterious man is more powerful than any one of the destroyers, isn't he?"

"It's not as simple as you think." The witcher ancestor shook his head and continued, "When the war starts, the strengths of the five destroyers must be balanced, or this crisis will not even exist."

"You speak as though you know something. What is it?" Barnes frowned.
