Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 901

Chandler went up respectfully and asked, "You also know about Barnes, young friend?"

Finley gave him a small smile and replied, "I have beaten that filthy monkey more times than I can count. He knows what we can do to him. How dare he cause trouble again?"

"Hey, now. Don't get all cocky, Finley. When you went against each other, he was still very weak. I'm the only one who could beat him now!"

the Water Kylin said pointedly, staring at Finley.

Finley flinched and said nothing.

Inside, he was fuming. Powerful or not, this beast had no right to talk to him that way.

"Ha! In your dreams. You only have your power because you've been compatible with your ancestors' crystals. How dare you act so arrogantly?" Finley glared at the Water Kylin with contempt.

"Do you want me to beat you up to prove my strength?"

The Water Kylin bared his teeth and faced Finley.

"You crazy bastard..." Finley's face was tinged red with anger.

"Ahem." Luther let out a small cough. "As much as I hate to break up your little game, we have more pressing issues to address. We need to head to the forbidden area. The sooner we fix everything the better."

The Water Kylin relaxed his shoulders.

"You got off lightly this time, punk. Next time, it won't be so easy." The Water Kylin chuckled. Finley rolled his eyes at him.

"You guys wait here. I'll take care of that bastard Barnes first."

The Water Kylin stomped off to the forbidden area.

The senior holy warriors looked on in awe.

"I did not expect Darren to have friends as powerful as these..."

one of the senior holy warriors said. In addition to the terrifying legendary beast—the Water Kylin, there was also a legendary phoenix in Darren's team. This group was simply too formidable.

The rest of the men ignored him. It was the same senior holy warrior who had been blaming the people of the Sacred Palace moments ago, and no one wanted to talk to him now.

"Sir, should we go and see if the Water Kylin needs help?" Luther asked Chandler.

"No. There's not much that we can do. We'd best let the Water Kylin handle this on his own," Chandler said.

Luther nodded in agreement.

At that moment, the mutated monkey was lost in his own thoughts. He stared in the direction of the forbidden area with a blank expression.

"What are you thinking about?" Hearing Caroline's sweet voice brought him back to reality.

"Nothing," the mutated monkey answered coldly.

"Are you afraid that the Water Kylin will kill him?"

"How could the Water Kylin kill him? He has an eternal body."

"Exactly. So why are you so worried?"

"Ah, well..." The monkey gave a deep sigh. He began to say something but stopped.

Boom!

Suddenly, the earth trembled. Bursts of light and streams of fiendish aura swirled around the forbidden area. A guttural roar rang out, hurting the ears of the warriors that were there.

"Argh!" one of the senior holy warriors gasped. He covered his ears with his hands.

Finley stared at the scene. A moment later, he grinned.

"Ha! The dead dog is indeed much stronger. It's a good thing we did not fight, or else he would have beaten me."

Back at the forbidden area, the Water Kylin was putting on a show.

Gold and red lights danced around his body. His aura made anyone who stood near him tremble with despair.

He raised his claws and deflected the attacks that Barnes threw at him. Blue lightning and flames burst out, breaking one after another stick shadow.

To everyone's surprise, Barnes seemed to be losing.

"Roar!"

The fiend's arm grew angry. He did not appreciate his plans being thwarted.

He was so close to freedom, but now this beast was about to take it all away from him.

"Let me lend you the power you need to defeat this beast!"

"It's too terrifying. I have seen how a six-tribulation senior holy warrior survived his ordeals, but I have never seen something like this firsthand!"

Panicked chatter rose from the crowds.

Finley looked at the crowd, his heartbeat quickening as the seconds passed.

"Did that damn monkey just activate a cloud of tribulation?"

Among them, the mutated monkey was the most frightened one now.

"Why would he activate the eighth cloud of tribulation himself? The day has actually come..." the monkey murmured.

The eighth tribulation!

When the crowd heard the mutated monkey's murmurs, they realized that Barnes was going through the eighth tribulation.

In history, the strongest tribulation holy warrior had only survived up until the eighth tribulation. If Barnes lived through this, there was no telling how powerful he would become!

In the forbidden area.

The Water Kylin stopped attacking and looked up at the cloud, stunned.

Barnes was also confused. He didn't expect that he would be able to activate the eighth tribulation so quickly.

'This is impossible. I won't make it! What's going on?'

Barnes trembled all over, terrified at the appearance of the vortex.

Even in his prime, He had little chance of surviving the eighth tribulation.

In the face of such a forceful tribulation, his Golden Indestructible Body was but a mere joke.

The cloud grew thicker and thicker and the vortex seemed to burn even brighter.

"That's impossible!" Barnes bit his lip. He sent a telepathic message to the fiend. 'What the hell are you up to? Why did you activate the thunder punishment?'

"I'm trying to help you get stronger but this wasn't my doing! Someone else did this!"

The fiend's cold voice echoed through Barnes's mind.

The fiend was also terrified. Even at his strongest state, he wouldn't be able to bear such a terrifying thunder punishment. Something was amiss.
