Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 255

"Will you listen to my story? Really?" Denise said as she burst into tears.

"No, I'd better not tell you. I would probably just blabber on then you'll get annoyed and ignore me." Her brows furrowed together in worry.

"No, I swear I won't. I promise I'll listen to your every single word," Darren said, staring intently at Denise.

"Well, forget it. I'm not real, anyway." Denise gave out a sigh. "I'm just a wisp of spiritual intent. You're going to leave no matter if you win or lose. I'll be alone. It won't make any difference even if I tell you or not.

Unless..." She smiled bitterly.

"Unless what?" Darren raised his eyebrows

"Unless you get me out of this place. Will you do it? I mean, will you get me out of here if you pass the thirteenth test?" There was very little possibility of it happening, but she still wanted to air out her thoughts and feelings. She liked the feeling of having hope.

"You're asking me if I can get you out if I pass the thirteenth test? Sure. Okay. I promise I'll get you out." Darren's voice was firm and his eyes were full of sincerity.

Denise's heart was filled with warmth as she heard Darren's words. She gave him a smile that reached her eyes and said, "Thank you for saying that. I'm glad to know that you're willing to do that for me. Alright, come on. Let's get on with this so we can finish quickly." Denise' face became serious.

"Darren, you know that I won't be able to control myself once I begin. I want you to try your best to defeat me and even break through the thirteenth space," she said, reminding him before she went into combat mode.

Now that he understood why she didn't start the fight at the beginning. Once she started, she would spare no effort to defeat her opponent.

Darren was beginning to sympathize with her. She was too lonely all the time.

But she had become a guardian now. Darren knew what he had to do.

Within the next few seconds, Denise started to change into a completely different person. Darren could sense her internal force and spiritual aura; it was much stronger than that of any other guardian he had ever met in the Ancient Void Battlefield. It was close to the aura of a grand warrior.

'What in the world happened to her?'

Darren was still somewhat taken aback by Denise's strength. However, he had now reached the middle stage of the Wonder Realm; with the help of his skills, he would perhaps not lose the game.

Darren activated his demonic transformation skill.

His demonic internal force rushed out with his sword and blade intent. Denise was so strong, so he had to use his strongest weapons to fight against her.

While he was still deciding on what skills to use, Denise's palm came down on him with the force of a mountain falling from the sky. His demonic internal force, together with his sword and blade intent, were instantly destroyed.

'She's so powerful!' Darren couldn't help being in awe by her strength.

He knew that it was impossible for him to stand against that palm, so he activated the Wind Rule and pushed himself aside to avoid being hit.

Boom!

The palm crashed down onto the ground right where Darren was just a few seconds ago. He felt the ground shake and cracks appeared on the ground where the palm hit.

'Is this the strength of a grand warrior? I've never seen a palm skill this powerful.' Darren could remember the fight between Scott and the man in black armor. Facing off in a fight against a grand warrior himself, he soon realized how horrible that power really was.

Strong as Scott was, he was still defeated.

"So weak!" Denise said in a cold voice. She looked more aggressive than ever.

Darren didn't say anything back and instead just got ready to fight back.

"Blade and Sword Domain!" Darren activated his unique skill. His Blade and Sword Domain had been much stronger after being improved.

"Humph!" Denise sneered at him. Darren planned to strike her with his Blade and Sword Domain, but there was a sudden flash. She entered the range of his domain before she was even hit.

There was a loud rumble; countless sword and blade intents formed around Denise.

Once she stood inside the domain, all the sword and blade intents started bombarding her from all directions.

With the help of the Blade and Sword Domain, the intents were much stronger than when they were used separately.

A few moments later, Denise began to tremble. It seemed that she couldn't stand against the intents.

'It worked!' Darren was ecstatic. He did not expect that the Blade and Sword Domain would stand against a grand warrior.

Darren continued his strikes at Denise. He moved so fast that his figure turned into a streak of light.

"Silver moon!"

Denise gasped lightly. Seeing Darren move so quickly made her think that she might be defeated, so she activated her silver moon and her internal force spiked up again, numerous silver lights surrounding her.
