Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 837

Darren stood quietly as he waited for his enemy's next move.

After a series of intricate changes, the black box turned into a cave which emitted white light.

Gradually, the light weakened and the scenery began to change.

It revealed a peaceful, flowing river. Wild grasses adorned the riverbanks on each side where everything seemed normal.

As the cave moved towards the flowing water, Darren saw the bottom of the river.

It was filled with lots of fishes and water plants, but aside from those, he couldn't find anything special.

Suddenly, the cave began to move rapidly along the side of the river. It traveled deeper and deeper into the water until it finally reached the darkness.

Rays of light spread throughout the space.

Finally, Darren could see mud-covered, human-shaped creatures sitting at the bottom of the river.

His eyes roamed along the view of the cave. "This is the River of Forgetfulness..."

Darren's eyes followed the movement of the cave. In a few minutes, he saw thousands of human-shaped figures sitting there with their legs crossed.

"Are those all the senior holy warriors from the ancient times?"

Darren was left awestruck. If they were all the senior holy warriors from the ancient times, then nobody in the world could stop them.

Even a genuine holy emperor wouldn't dare fight them—let alone Barnes the Holy.

"Boy, I may be strong but my strength is nothing compared to theirs."

The senior holy warrior from the ancient times spoke up after seeing the stunned expression on Darren's face.

Recovering from his shock, Darren asked, "Why do you hide in the River of Forgetfulness?"

"Why?" the warrior echoed back. He didn't seem to know the answer.

"It's useless for you to know so much since I will still kill you after I swallow the phoenix elixir!" He then gave a hideous smile as he approached Caroline, who was currently trapped in her illusion caused by the fiendish nature.

From afar, Barnes the Holy secretly watched the scene in the river. His eyes were filled with shock and ferocity.

His eyes swept over the people in the bottom of the river and found several of them were not far away from his peak period. This made him wary. But he knew he couldn't dare fight them. They were too powerful for him now.

There was nothing else he could do except to release Caroline from the trap that confined her. After all, it was only fair that she got out of her illusion when the ancient senior holy warrior had already gotten out from his.

Caroline and the mutated gray-haired monkey quickly recovered after their release.

In front of them, the ancient senior holy warrior was fast approaching.

The monkey immediately swung his stick, aiming it at the incoming senior holy warrior.

"Fight!"

In a flash, the ancient senior holy warrior stood in front of the monkey. His hands grabbed the stick unexpectedly. The force of it jarred the monkey, preventing him from using the stick.

"Do you think you can resist me now that I have regained sixty percent of my fighting power?"

By regaining sixty percent of his powers, the senior holy warrior had become stronger than the monkey.

If the monkey were as strong as when he had just been born, he could have had a fighting chance against the senior holy warrior at the peak of his strength. But with the current circumstances, the monkey was no match for him, even if the ancient warrior had only regained sixty percent of his strength.

"Stop!" Darren interrupted, immediately flying over to them.

"You're wounded. My friend can heal you. You don't have to kill anyone." He thought of the old man from the Mythological Palace.

"Brat, do you think your friend is able to treat my wounds? I don't need any reason to kill, so I'll still kill you and your friends.

I've been asleep for so long that the only way I can fit in with the Universe Rule of this era is if I drink human blood. This is just the beginning. The real slaughter will only start once all of us get out. And when that time comes, it'll be splendid."

Since the senior holy warrior was not of this era, he was burdened by the rules of time ever since he came back to this world. The only way to counteract the effects was by drinking human blood.
