Chapter 1403 Darren Failed

In that light, Darren appeared in the form of a black figure, making his way outside, step by step.

Everyone held their breath. Whether they succeeded or not depended on Darren as he was their only hope!

Gradually, Darren placed one foot into the void, and the light enveloping him dissipated.

"Darren, how did it go?"

"You must have succeeded, right?"

Everyone was so excited that they immediately flew over and surrounded him.

Darren, who was exhausted to the bone, remained silent.

"Say something, Darren. Did you succeed? Please tell us the result," Lindsay urged as she stared at Darren. She frowned when she noticed that something seemed off about him.

Darren opened his mouth to speak, but he felt so weak that his eyes fluttered, and he fainted.

Everyone gasped as shock coursed through them. Weber quickly flew forward to help Darren.

"Darren must have consumed too much soul power and passed out. Where are the rule cultivators? Come and save him," Weber shouted frantically.

Several talented rule cultivators immediately flew over to treat Darren.

After a long time, Darren's soul was healed to the point where it wasn't as fragile, and he regained consciousness.

Phew!

Darren opened his eyes, much to everyone's delight. He still looked a little tired, but he was awake.

"Are you all right?" Sally and Beatty appeared genuinely concerned as they asked Darren.

Darren shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I was fortunate to have exited in time. Otherwise, my soul would have collapsed."

"That's a relief. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you, Darren."

"Don't worry. I'm fine."

Now that Darren had woken up, everyone's curiosity returned, and they wanted to know the result.

However, when they saw his condition, they guessed the outcome wasn't as they had hoped. Although they were thrilled that he was unharmed, in their hearts, they were a little depressed.

"Darren, did you also fail?"

someone asked. Darren had just said that if he hadn't retreated in time, his life would have been in danger. His statement indicated that he had failed and given up.

Darren remained silent for a while, unsure of how to explain what had happened. Eventually, he shook his head.

Brilliant smiles lit up everyone's faces, and hope soared.

"D

of help that he hadn't checked on his friend.

"No, he is still receiving the test." Lindsay became a little worried now. If Darren had given up, what hope did Finley have? Wouldn't he be in danger?

Darren turned and saw that there were still two rays of light covering two people.

His eyebrows shot up.

"I see!"

Darren shouted, startling everyone.

"What's wrong?"

"Ha-ha." Darren smiled and said, "There could only be one reason why I wasn't given control of the relic despite finding all the flaws."

"What? Tell us."

"Because someone else identified all the flaws before I did," Darren said with an enthusiastic nod.

If Darren had been the first to complete the test, he would have gained control of the Archean relic. Since the relic owner didn't allow him to command it, there could only be one explanation.

Was it Finley or the other one called Sandy who had outperformed Darren?

"It seems to make sense."

Everyone came to understand when they heard the explanation.

Such a result completely astounded them as they had not considered the possibility that one of the others would succeed instead of Darren.

Finley was so weak, and Sandy's abilities were relatively unknown at that time. It was beyond everyone's expectation that one of them would obtain the inheritance.

Although everyone was surprised, they were no longer worried.

Regardless of who qualified to control the relic, Finley and Sandy would leave safely and save those who were trapped.

This mission was finally complete.
