Chapter 687 Fearless


    The fierce fight between the three sect leaders had caused lots of storms and destroyed the entire


    space. Even though Darren and Hobson were a kilometer away from the battlefield, they were still


    actively suppressed.

    "Without the old man''s protection, we can''t even withstand that dispersed Holy Will of them." Struggling


    to steady himself, Hobson paled at the dispersed Holy Will attacking them randomly.


    "After all, they are holy warriors, who have gotten over a barrier of the martial arts. Definitely, they


    would bepelling," Darren said despite being between a rock and a hard ce.


    "Well, we will be no worse than them when we be holy warriors. Especially you, I can''t imagine


    how powerful you will be like after you be a holy warrior."


    "It''s not that easy to reach the Holy Realm. Especially for me, to be a holy warrior, I have to go


    through unbearable tortures and painstaking tasks. It would be a miracle if I were to reach the Holy


    Realm alive," Darren said in a calm voice. He was grateful that the dispersed Holy Will had ebbed a


    little by now.


    Darren was telling the truth. Once he broke through to the Holy Realm, he had no choice but to


    experience the Heavenly Repression again. It was hard to conclude whether he could live through it or


    not.


    Moreover, the Giant Ape advised Darren before that the hardest Conflicting Cultivation in the whole


    world is the Rule and Martial Arts Cultivation.


    ording to the ape, the conflict usually urred the moment the person reached the Holy Realm. It


    was hard for Darren to imagine what kind of sufferings he would go through if ever he reached that


    stage. Especially considering that he cultivated both the rule and martial arts at the same time!


    Twenty hourster, as the huge and surging Holy Will finally waned and the battle gradually subsided,


    Darren and Hobson put themselves at ease and let down their guards.


    Darren and Hobson discreetly released their spiritual senses and found that Arlo, the leader of the


    Dragon Chasing Sect, had been crushed, amputated, and eventually died.


    "Unfortunately, I can''t assimte his talent. Otherwise, I would be a step closer to the Genuine Domain


    Degree talent," Darren uttered in dismay.


    Nheless, even if he couldn''t assimte the talent, he still felt relieved since one enemy had been


    killed—one less oppressor to deal with.


    As for Harrison and Dexter, after the violent battle, they were covered with wounds that their bones


    were visible over their skins. Arlo was apparently extremely powerful judging from the injuries he had


    inflicted upon them.


    "Darren, how about we sneak up on them and kill them behind their backs?"


    Seeing a perfect time to strike while the iron was hot, Hobson had found that both of them were very


    weak after the battle, and their fighting power had dropped to the lowest point after they reached the


    Holy Realm.


    "No, it''s not safe to do that," Darren opposed directly, totally dismissing Hobson''s suggestion.


    Darren knew for a fact that the most powerful method for a holy warrior was not dependent on their


    bodily strength, but the pressure and attacks by the Holy Will. Even if they were injured now, Darren


    and Hobson still could notpete with them if they would decide to attack them in surprise.


    Back then, still fresh in his memories, Hobson had been smashed thousands of times by Jordan and


    Harrison, who were both severely injured at that time.


    "Let''s return to the stone hall and find a ce to hide. I''m sure a fight between Dexter and Harrison


    wouldmence any time soon. The one who survives the battle will take the examination. If all things


    went well, we wouldpletely be safe," Darren said in suggestion to Hobson. He was just heeding to


    alternatives that would do them less or at least no harm at all.


    "Well, then let''s go."


    With that, Darren and Hobson returned to the stone hall.


    After thirty days, before this very day, a figure cautiously stepped into the stone hall.


    "It''s Dexter!" whispered Darren in a hushed tone.


    At the sight of the approaching figure, Darren and Hobson hid behind a stone gate, where they could


    clearly see the man''s face.


    "It seems that he killed Harrison."


    "Why does he look so nervous?" While carefully observing Dexter from afar, Hobson noticed that


    Dexter looked over his shoulders from time to time, paused for a while, looked again, and then walked


    cautiously.


    "He didn''t know that the old man was suppressed. Now that he entered here by himself, he is afraid


    that we will join hands to kill him," Darren said with his head lowered in hiding.


    "Well, I see." Seeing a point on what Darren had said, Hobson nodded and agreed at once.


    At the moment, Dexter had already memorized everything on the ancient scroll. Thus, he rushed to a


    stone door like a ghost, wrapped the ancient scroll in the shape of a cylinder, and stuffed it into a hole


    in the door.


    Out of the blue, Dexter was shrouded by shes of blood-red light instantaneously.


    "Ha-ha, once I be the lord, this ancient pce will be mine. I will make sure that I will be


    invincible!" Along with his diabolical deration, Dexter burst outughing a maleficentugh.


    "Darren, how about we go and bluff him?" Right at that very moment, a sinister n was formed on


    Hobson''s mind making him grin like a bobcat.


    "Yes, that''s a good idea." Darren agreed at Hobson''s y, and he too drew a freakish grin from ear to


    ear.


    "How dare you! How dare youe in? Aren''t you afraid that we will kill you?"


    Determined to scare the hell out of Dexter, Hobson was the first one to jump out and let out his threat.


    Shouting at a holy warrior created inexplicable mirth upon Hobson that he couldn''t help himself from


    being overjoyed.


    "Humph, how dare youe in after snatching our treasure! Kill him!"


    At such an order from Darren, he and Hobsonunched attacks at Dexter at the same time.


    Judging from how he acted earlier, Darren and Hobson knew that Dexter was around the corner to


    sess. Dexter, in return, would definitely note and attack them since he was afraid something


    uncontroble would happen.


    Terrified and panic-stricken, Dexter was jumpy and jiffy. After enduring the attacks, he managed to


    resist Darren''s and Hobson''s attacks with one palm and said, "Lads, when I be the lord, I''ll blow


    you into minced meat."


    In fact, he wasn''t worried that Darren and Hobson woulde and attack him. What bothered him


    most was the old man, he mighte out to stop him from taking the examination.


    "You son of a gun, who do you think you are? You can''t kill me even if it would take you millions of


    years," Hobson yelled at Dexter with a smile, his eyebrows raised. There was more of insult rather than


    mockery expressed in Hobson''s words.


    After hearing that, Dexter was so angry that his face turned red.


    Just listening on the side, Darren, on the other hand, didn''t say anything. Instead, he called upon his


    de and sword intents and aimed towards Dexter.


    "Go to hell!" Infuriated by Hobson underestimating him, Dexter was exceedingly enraged.


    "Come on, kill us if you have the ability, which I know you haven''t," Hobson said sarcastically, not


    showing any signs of empathy towards Dexter.


    Fuelled by another sardonic remark from Hobson, Dexter was simmering with rage and was about to


    face suddenly appeared above him.


    To Darren''s and Hobson''s horror, the face was in exact resemnce with the portrait of the red-haired


    monster on the wall outside.


    Sensing an odd aura above him, Dexter raised his head, nced at the face, and suddenly knelt on the


    ground. On the spur of the moment, his face was filled with fear—more of veneration.


    Not far away, and posed to attack Dexter, Darren and Hobson were trembling as if they saw a god.


    "Such a horrifying aura. My soul is going to disperse," uttered Hobson while wiping off sweats from his


    forehead. At the sight of the foreboding red-haired monster, Hobson''s face went pale. The demeanor


    he had earlier in mocking Dexter was reced with timidity and distress. He took a deep breath and


    tried to stop his knees from trembling too hard.


    Beside him, Darren felt the same way. Except that his fright is lesspared to that of Hobson''s.


    "Is it the holy emperor who was invincible for an era? A virtual face of him after tens of thousands of


    years is enough to make a holy warrior kneel," Darren asked Hobson in a quivering voice.


    A momentter, the face murmured something, and Dexter was sucked in by a ck swirl, and his


    body disappeared at the same time.


    "Ah!"


    Witnessing right before their very eyes what happened to Dexter, Darren''s and Hobson''s fear gradually


    disappeared. They heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Oh my god! He''s so powerful. If only I could be a holy emperor one day," Hobson said to himself


    in a small voice. As his mouth gaped wide open, his mind was with the thought that he could be as


    powerful as the holy emperor one day.


    "Stop daydreaming. It''s challenging to be a senior holy warrior. Bing a holy emperor requires


    you to be the invincible master of an era. Do you think we can be that person?" Darren rolled his eyes


    at him and discouraged him cutting short his fantasies right at that very moment.


    "Can''t I even dream about it at least?" A bit annoyed by Darren''s expression, Hobson smacked his lips


    and said, "In other words, Darren, I think you have a chance to be one. After hundreds of years or


    thousands of years, you''ll undoubtedly be an invincible lord in existence in the whole world."


    "You''re overthinking. As far as I know, my strength does not deserve to be mentioned now. Perhaps


    everyone in the eighteen cities mentioned by the Lord of the Sacred Pce could crush me to death


    quickly. Besides, many super-powerful warriors are more deserving around the world."


    Judging from his argument, Darren was not belittling himself. His current power was nothing at all


    "Damn it! If you don''t ept mypliments, I''ll take them back then. You''re such a loser." Hobson


    "Cut the crap, loser! Let''s hurry up and improve our strength. If Dexter passed the examination, we


    might not be able topete with him even with the help of the old man," Darren said, seriously


    ushering Hobson to go on his way and start practicing his skills.


    "Okay, let''s do it!" With that, Hobson jumped up and started to practice spear skills.


    Left alone in the ground, Darren found a quiet ce and began to assimte spiritual energy to


    enhance his cultivation base.


    If they could practice inside the time and space turbulent flow, their cultivation base would increase


    much faster. What a pity, they couldn''t go there now and had to cultivate outside.


    Darren took out one of the purple leaves and absorbed the spiritual energy with all his efforts. The


    moment he stepped into the seven-star Grand Realm, his strength would improve significantly—he


    couldn''t wait for that to happen.
