Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 879

Darren was overjoyed. For a moment, he had doubted that the black-armored man would really take in his words. But as he thought it over, he understood how freedom weighed in a man's heart. For those who had suffered much from the oppression of others, the desire for freedom was unimaginable. Now the black-armored man saw a chance of escape, and it was his very last hope. It was only natural, then, that he would willingly risk the doom of a second death to fight for it. Darren couldn't help but pity this man.

"I'm glad you see things my way," said Darren, sitting up. "But let's not be hasty. You should go first and find out the exact route of our escape. I'll stay here in disguise for a few more days. That will give us enough time to prepare."

The reply of the black-armored man was fierce, driven by fear of betrayal as much as by hope. "Very well, I will follow your instructions. But if you dare lie to me, I will kill you for it, even if it means my own life as well!"

"Don't worry. Your strength is much higher than mine," Darren pointed out. "Wouldn't it be suicide for me to lie to you?"

Without any reply, the black-armored man left him.

Two days passed. The Misty Emperor was indeed a very cautious person, and so from time to time he released his spiritual sense to spy on him. He planned to visit his captive to interrogate him again, once he saw that he'd reached the limit of his resistance.

But Darren's plan worked perfectly, as he was able to sense it whenever the Misty Emperor was about to spy on him. So, each time, he pretended to still be in torment from the soul attack.

Whenever he didn't have to put on a show, he passed the time by practicing his cultivation.

One day, during the cultivation, Darren suddenly had a very strange and bad feeling that he had never experienced before. It seemed to him that it was coming from his Space Ring.

'Oh, this is bad!' he thought to himself as he focused on the device. It felt like it was about to collapse.

It was just then that he remembered how, not too long ago, he had placed an unconscious two-tribulation inferior holy warrior inside of it.

'Oh, no. Did he wake up?'

It was known that the Space Ring couldn't contain living things with fierce fluctuation of life energy. Once that holy warrior woke up, he would inevitably do whatever he had to in order to escape, and that would make the Space Ring explode, thus destroying everything inside of it.

Darren released his spiritual sense in a hurry, projecting it into the Space Ring. After a few moments of searching, he found that the inferior holy warrior was still floating inside, with no sign of regaining consciousness.

"No, it's not him. Then who is making this havoc?" Darren sputtered in dismay.

This was a potential catastrophe, for he had collected many things in his Space Ring, and now all of them were at stake. His mind spun as he searched every corner of the device.
