Roland gripped half of Elgin's body tightly. Elgin struggled violently, but he couldn't break free.
On the other hand, the Rule Soul Avatar used the Trap Law to trap the other half of Elgin's body.
Since Elgin had destroyed his own body, his cultivation level was no longer at the Deputy God Realm. Therefore, the sword array that rushed out of the blood pass also dissipated.
Stewart and Jamison flew over to help Roland. They controlled the other half of Elgin's body and dragged him back.
Darren mobilized his god's power to heal his wounds quickly. Although he had spat blood just now, it was only because of the impact. He was not seriously injured at all.
"Roland, thank you for your help. I would have already died if you weren't there," Darren said, cupping his hands towards Roland to show his gratitude.
"You are welcome, Patriarch Darren. It is my duty to protect you."
Darren smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you are so powerful, Roland. I'm wondering why you didn't fight back when those bandits wanted to kill you earlier."
Roland smiled bitterly and said, "Patriarch Darren, there is something you don't know. After the Chu Clan was annihilated, I felt extremely hopeless. It caused my faith in martial arts to collapse. I was like a disabled man at that time. But when I saw you, I was enlightened, and my faith in martial arts slowly came back. Just now, when you were in grave danger, I got so anxious that I forcefully acted on my heart and soul. To my surprise, I succeeded and restored my previous fighting power."
The way Roland explained it sounded so simple. But the truth was, the process of reconstructing one's collapsed faith in martial arts was very complicated and painful.
"Ha-ha! I'm glad to know that you have recovered your strength and fighting power. From now on, our Chu Clan has one more backbone," Darren said with a smile.
"You are flattering me too much, Patriarch Darren. I am just at the top level of the Superior God Realm. I can only make minor contributions to our clan. I don't deserve to be called a backbone," Roland said modestly.
Darren shook his head, smiled, and said, "No. The top level of the Superior God Realm is already good enough. By the way, from now on, don't call me patriarch anymore. We are buddies from the same generation and clan, so let's just call each other by our names."
If they based on the seniority in their clan, Roland could be considered as Darren's elder cousin.
"Yes, Darren," Roland agreed.
After they talked, Darren gathered everyone. T
urrounding her. In an instant, the metal creatures rushed forward and tore the human woman apart.
But a few moments later, the human woman condensed her body and came back to life.
It happened again and again until the human woman felt extreme pain and gradually became weaker and weaker.
Without wasting any time, the Rule Soul Avatar sent the images directly into Darren's mind.
"Aunt Yolanda!" Darren exclaimed.
His heart sank upon seeing Yolanda struggled between life and death.
The Rule Soul Avatar analyzed more and found out that Yolanda was in the Second Dangerous Area. He immediately informed Darren about it.
"Open the blood pass for me,"
Darren ordered the bloodsuckers.
"Yes, sir." All of them flew around the blood pass.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Thousands of bloodsuckers, who were eager for blood, sucked greedily.
Countless wisps of blood vitality spread out of the blood pass and flew into the mouths of the bloodsuckers.
All of a sudden, the members of the bloodsucker race were all in extreme pain. They didn't feel comfortable when the blood vitality entered their bodies.
"Xavier, help them," Darren said to the Rule Soul Avatar.
The Rule Soul Avatar nodded and used powerful law means to weaken the malicious aura in the blood vitality.
But a few days later, already ninety percent of the bloodsuckers that Darren had subdued died as their bodies exploded. The Rule Soul Avatar couldn't cure them.
On the bright side, the blood pass had been weakened a lot. It was already enough for Darren and his companions to pass through.
"Ha-ha! Thank you for opening the blood pass for me." In an instant, wild laughter filled the underground space.
