Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 885

The Misty Emperor used the runes to boost his speed, surpassing even the restrictions of space. Now, he moved as if he was teleporting.

Darren, on the other hand, followed the instructions of the black-armored man and fled north. As soon as he reached the gorgeous land, he noticed the looming darkness ahead.

'That should be the forbidden domain the black-armored man mentioned, ' he thought.

Without hesitation, Darren dashed towards it.

But suddenly, a blue-skinned man appeared in front of him, blocking his path.

With the long spear in his hand, he stabbed the earth. It pierced through the soft ground, leaving a horrible crack.

Darren's dark gold internal force surged wildly.

"You brat! Do you really think you can just get pass me while I guard the outer perimeter of the forbidden domain?"

Despite sensing Darren's terrifying aura, the blue-skinned man still put up a tough front by being as intimidating as he could.

The dark gold internal force reached out to the blue-skinned man until he was covered with it entirely. But Darren knew that it was harmless. He turned into a shadow and charged at the other man.

Blood red light burst out from the void.

It shone bright and painted area scarlet.

And amid that explosion of color, a head was tossed out.

It was the blue-skinned man who was as powerful as a medium senior holy warrior. In just one blow, Darren managed to kill him. The poor man didn't even know what hit him before dying.

Darren assimilated the man's talent and jumped back into the gloom.

"Damn human brat, do you think you can escape?"

Thunder rumbled angrily in the sky. And from a distance, a colorful halo descended upon the land. It was the Misty Emperor.

His unparalleled aura fell heavily upon Darren who immediately felt its suppressing force.

'I must escape!' Darren knew that he could not stand a chance against the Misty Emperor. If he got caught this time, he wouldn't be able to get away again.

Nonetheless, he tried to stay firm against the onslaught of the Misty Emperor's pressure.

'The forbidden domain has completely blocked my spiritual sense. I can't detect anything at all, ' Darren thought. But then, he was overjoyed by this because it meant the Misty Emperor would have difficulty in locating him in the darkness.

'Great!'

Beyond the darkness, the colorful halo landed. The light slowly faded to reveal the Misty Emperor.

He had a ferocious look on his face. It was as if he desired to rip Darren into pieces. However, he didn't come any closer. He seemed to hesitate crossing over into the gloom.

All of a sudden, several blue figures appeared beside him.

They acknowledged the Misty Emperor with only a slight nod.

It was obvious that they were in a high position.

"Who enters the forbidden domain?"

"It's a human kid," the Misty Emperor replied through gritted teeth.

"Is he the one who stole the dark-spirit crystals?"

one of the blue men pried further. Worry shone through their eyes.

The Misty Emperor nodded his head. "Yes, he is."

"Humph, if it weren't for your father's sake, you would have been dismissed from your position. Now look at what you've done," another blue-skinned man fumed.

The Misty Emperor turned suddenly at the man. His eyes were ablaze with murderous intent. "I beg your pardon?"

"Do you have a problem? You better take that human back, or no one can protect you!" The blue-skinned man met the Misty Emperor's gaze as steely and steadily as he could. Neither one seemed fazed by the other.

Until finally, the Misty Emperor gritted his teeth and his body began to fall into a relaxed stance. The fire in his eyes had calmed as well.

"Very well then. I'll take care of it myself."

"That's good. Let's go." Then, they all left.

"Old bastards. When I take control of the holy emperor's corpse, I'll kill you!" The Misty Emperor let that promise linger in his mind as he walked into the darkness.

On the other hand, Darren was moving as fast as he could through the gloom. His pitch black surrounding was making it impossible for him to determine which direction was which.

However, the longer he stayed within the darkness, the thicker and stuffier the air began to feel. It was as if something terrible waited for him at the other side of the gloom, staring at him.
