Chapter 866 The Aura Of A Holy Emperor

After a few days of rest, Darren had finally recovered from his wounds.

During those days, he had not forgotten to practice his cultivation.

His progress had hastened ever since the strange stone in his head merged with his soul.

"It seems like I can progress faster than Finley now even though both of us have the talent of the Genuine Domain Degree," Darren murmured to himself.

But despite this, he knew that he still had a long way to go although he had the combat power to fight a senior holy warrior now.

Moreover, according to Chandler, the tribulation holy warriors—those who entered the Holy Realm by surviving tribulations, were much stronger than ordinary holy warriors.

Not to mention, there was still the Emperor Realm that stood above the Holy Realm. All cultivators aimed to reach the Emperor Realm.

In truth, it wasn't his goal to become a holy emperor. All he wanted was to have the power to kill the immortal.

Ever since that day, the immortal had disappeared completely, leaving no trace behind. Darren couldn't help but worry about Elsa.

Up until now, he had no idea whether she was still alive or not. The very memory of her always sent needles stabbing at his heart. The pain was still fresh in his mind, like an open wound that refused to heal.

Putting away such thoughts, he went back to his cultivation. Half a month later, everything was still going smoothly.

When suddenly, a loud rumble woke Darren up from his cultivation.

Boom!

He flew out of the room and into the sky where he had a better vantage point.

The black mist brewed along with the clouds, covering the world into darkness.

Darren thought something ominous was happening inside the forbidden area of Hiram the Great's halberd. But when he strained to look closer, he couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"What happened?" he wondered.

The black mist shot out a terrifying force that caught Darren by surprise.

"Where is it coming from? What the hell is going on?"

This kind of strength wasn't like the powers of Barnes or the first fiend ancestor, but it didn't mean it was inferior to them either.

Curious, Darren rushed towards it.

After flying for a while, he noticed several people were heading towards that direction, too. And once they were getting closer, he finally recognized Scott, Mathew, Hanson and several other senior holy warriors of the Sacred Palace.

Scott was the first to spot Darren.

"Darren, you are here."

"Do you know what happened?"

"The seniors said

aster with strong sword intents came over to Darren.

"Darren, are you also here to check on the holy emperor's aura?"

It was Luther.

Chandler stared at the handsome young man. His eyes widening in shock at the latter's swordsmanship. From where he stood, he could feel the sting of the young man's sword intents. "Who are you?" he asked.

Instead of introducing himself, Luther said, "It is an honor to meet you, Mr. Chandler." Of course, Luther knew who Chandler was. The latter used to be his idol after all.

As a child, he had watched a seven-star grand warrior fight diabolic beasts. Back then, he believed that the seven-star grand warrior was the greatest warrior in the world. That warrior had motivated Luther to push himself in becoming stronger and more powerful. Of course, the warrior was none other than Chandler.

As he was growing up, he made several attempts to meet his idol. But he never succeeded. He had then turned his focus on mastering his swordsmanship. Trying to get a breakthrough had led him to travel to the Aborigines Worlds. Later, he was trapped in the space created by the Primitive Emperor and became one of the guardians. That was where he and Darren had met for the first time.

"Hello! It's nice to meet you! I would like to compliment you on your sword intents. They are truly remarkable and rare."

"Thank you. I'm flattered." Then, Luther suddenly turned serious. "Are those demons causing you troubles?"

"Hey, it's you! You're the one who launched a sneak attack on me last time!"

the Roc Demon Emperor exclaimed as soon as he sensed Luther's aura. His own demonic aura exploded in response, disturbing the space around him.
