"Ha-ha." The old man chuckled and said, "No, he was just at the top level of a seven-star grand warrior."
"What? Is that true?" asked Darren in surprise. Though he was a bit in doubt, his eyes eventually lit up. He was glad to hear that such a warrior at the top level of a seven-star grand warrior was able to live up to the challenge.
"That simply means I still have a chance and not just a slim chance but a fat one. Yet, I couldn't understand what's going on? Why the holy warriors could not get out of here, but a seven-star grand warrior did manage to escape. Can you make it clear for me, sir?" probed Darren, that was, even though he saw a glimmer of hope. After learning from the old man that someone was able to get out from the holy emperor's heart, Darren believed that he could also do the same. He relied on his belief that if another person could, why couldn't he.
"He was such a powerful person. You are way much weaker than him, Darren," discouraged the old man.
"Why am I much weaker than him? What made you say so, sir?" Darren sought an answer hurriedly as he was a bit intimidated by the old man's words.
"First of all, that dude had a bulky body built from the Remote Age; thus, his body was terribly strong. Secondly, he had grasped seven extreme martial arts skills. If he had used all of his strength, he could have killed an inferior holy warrior at his top level or have run away after attacking face to face with a junior holy warrior for three times. Now tell me, do you think he is strong or not? What do you think?"
After hearing such an explanation, Darren kept his silence. In his mind, he just played on the thought of how terrifying that man would be.
After all, he couldn't even defeat a cultivator who had mastered ninety percent of the Fringe Holy Will. How much more facing an inferior holy warrior without a s
t be very dominating, isn't he? I did not expect there is a person with this realm who has been practicing Conflicting Cultivation exists. I guess this one is probably a little stronger than the other one who has been practicing the Killing Cultivation," the old man put his admiration into words.
"You are also cultivating the blade and sword skills. You should know how powerful it is by now. All in all, what you said is right. These two people indeed can compete with that guy who got out of this palace. It seems to me that you have a lot of experience too. You even know such powerful people. Ha-ha!" the old man praised Darren.
"I knew them by chance, but they have helped me a lot," Darren replied modestly.
When they were talking, the old man frowned suddenly. He was a little stunned as if he was investigating something.
"Come on, let's go out of this place first. As for the things you want to do, you plan for it and come back a few days later." After saying that, the old man took Darren away.
At such a hasty and forceful pull made by the man that almost dragged Darren to the ground, the warrior was confused and had no idea what had just happened. Before they left, he saw the old man's eyes gleam with worry.
