Chapter 1018 The Ending Battle (Part Two)

"It sounds like a war is raging."

The violent quakes and blaring sounds interrupted the Rule Soul Avatar's thoughts.

"Let's investigate."

Barely had the words been spoken when Darren and his avatar vanished.

To Darren's surprise, it was not Yahya and the Shura who were fighting. Instead, the Shura was battling the thousands of chains released from the five black pagodas.

The mighty Shura Force rushed out like torrents, while the chains, like rules, repressed the Shura's power.

They appeared evenly matched.

"What are those pagodas? Why are they so strong?"

Darren's heart lurched. How mighty were the black pagodas if they could resist the attacks from the Shura?

"Howl!"

the Shura roared as frustration coursed through him. As he had been unable to destroy those iron chains, he released a more violent wave of Shura Force.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The space started to tremble violently, and the power contained in the aftershock forced Darren to retreat.

Not far away, Yahya moved backward quickly as well. But the Rule Soul Avatar remained motionless as he stared at the five black pagodas with his silver eyes.

Darren stopped retreating once he reached a safe enough distance.

"Yahya, it's time to end it."

Darren turned to face Yahya as he spoke.

"Yes." Yahya sighed. "It's time to end it. Now, I see the end."

"What?" Darren frowned. Yahya seemed to be implying something more with his comment.

"This test was arranged by my future self because I wanted to know how I died. When you stepped into this tomb with your Shura Force, the law that my master had left determined that you probably killed me. But now I know the truth. It was the Shura you brought that slayed me."

"Nonsense." Darren shook his head at Yahya's explanation. His tone was as cold as ice when he spoke, "The times in which you and I exist are a hundred million years apart. How could you have gone to the afterlife to look for the murderer when you died? How could the Shura be your murderer?"

"It's a pity. Before my future self died, my master told me that the Shura had traveled through space and time. He helped me to organize this illusion to find the murderer. Moreover, if I kill him, perhaps the result will change," Yahya mutter

strike left a slight crack on the black pagoda.

"Argh!"

At this point, the Rule Soul Avatar, who had been silent all this while, spat out a mouthful of blood.

The slight change did not escape the Shura. After he saw the avatar spit blood, he stopped the attack and then walked toward the avatar.

"You control the pagodas," the Shura stated.

"You finally figured it out!" the Rule Soul Avatar remarked. As before, his tone was cold and emotionless.

"You're strong. You can control three of the five pagodas."

"Release me and share your conditions," said the avatar. The avatar was not interested in the Shura's praise. He was wise enough to understand that there could only be mutually beneficial deals between them.

"Control the five pagodas and be my slave,"

the Shura suggested, without any hesitation. The ideal scenario would be for the Rule Soul Avatar to control all the five pagodas and then work for him.

The Shura race would never be slaves, but they could have other living creatures as their slaves!

"I'll never be a slave," the Rule Soul Avatar refused. In this respect, the Rule Soul Avatar was similar to the Shura as he would rather die than become a slave.

"I will not allow you to live in this world if you don't become my slave as I'm aware that your existence will pose a fatal threat to me in the future.

If you refuse, I must kill you."

Boom!

The Rule Soul Avatar couldn't escape even with the space skills as the Shura Force was too powerful.
