Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 639

Everyone turned to the dragon, thinking that it was a powerful creature from the forbidden zone.

"Kill it! Kill it then drink its blood and eat its meat!"

The survivors on the battlefield were unhinged.

A creature this powerful would surely have precious treasures in both its flesh and blood.

Darren gave off an icy aura, olive-black light bouncing off of every scale, his eyes were filled with a killing intent as deep as an abyss.

Bang!

Darren's dragon body suddenly vanished. When he reappeared, there were more than ten mutilated corpses under his claws.

These people were probably just as strong as him. However, as the battle had made them use up a lot of their strength, Darren could at least exploit the tolls it had had on them by killing ten of them with one attack. That would frighten them enough to think twice about attacking him.

'My demonic internal force and dragon blood aura are being consumed so fast, ' Darren thought to himself.

Darren had only launched one attack, but he already felt a sharp pain in his elixir field. It was a result of overexertion using two kinds of powers.

After a dozen of the remaining martial artists were killed, the rest of them no longer dared to act rashly. Even the strongest ones didn't dare to move at all.

'My power is being consumed. I have to end this quickly, or I will return to my original body.'

Darren was deep in thought. He had been quickly using up all of the strength in his body ever since he turned into a dragon.

He thought striking first would give him a flashy advantage with the crowd gathered around him.

With a sweep of his dragon tail, he was able to shatter one or two top level seven-star martial artists, just like a god of death.

Blood mist filled the air. It was a disgusting hell of mangled bodies and rivers of bloods, enough to make anyone gag.

Darren's attack, had destroyed most of the remaining martial artists, leaving only about twenty or thirty of them.

He felt that his strength had reached its limit and was about to return to his original body.

"It's your turn now."

Darren stared at the five most powerful young men who hadn't moved an inch during the whole time.

"You speak the human language?"

The group of people took two steps back cautiously.

"I'm a disciple of the Dragon Chasing Sect. Why can't I speak the human language?"

Since Darren would return to his original body very soon, he figured he should make a point first. He needed to ensure they wouldn't dare to attack him.

"Ha-ha, the Dragon Chasing Sect? You are a fellow apprentice of mine? Since when did our sect have a fre... I mean, a talented person like you?" One of the young men looked overjoyed.

"Oh, you are my fellow apprentice! I've just joined the sect not long ago. It's normal that you don't know my real strength. I'll talk with you after I turn back into my real body."

Seeing that this was the right time, Darren shrank slowly back to his real body slowly. He went back to being a young man in ragged clothes.

After Darren returned to his real body, he showed them his disciple token.

"You are indeed from our sect! Great!" A disheveled young man from their midst flew over.

"Come on! Let's kill these bastards together and get into the forbidden zone," he said.

The other four guys turned nervous at his words.

He was trying to turn Darren against them. Darren had turned exceptionally powerful once he'd transformed into a dragon that the other four now didn't dare to make a move against him. Being on opposite sides as him meant their chances of survival were slim.

"They are weak. It's useless to kill them.

Besides, you were also forced to come here by the three elders, weren't you? Is it really worth it to risk your life here just to fight them?"

Darren asked calmly.

"What do you mean by that?"

The young man frowned at Darren.

Darren pondered for a while, and then said, "Don't you understand such a simple train of logic? We are now more than ready to enter the forbidden zone and have a chance to get the treasure. Why should we fight out here and risk our lives? What good will it do us?

I have to say that you're all idiots. Even if you survive the battle in the end, you will use up a lot of your energy. Do you really want to fight for the treasures at a very weak state? In my opinion, let's go inside together, and then we can fight for the treasures on our own,"

Darren explained, though his real intention was to stop the fighting altogether so he wouldn't have to fight them. After all, he didn't have the strength to turn into a dragon now. Not to mention his so-called "fellow apprentice" wouldn't be of any help.

"Oh, you are so right! We are so stupid!"

Before the young man from the Dragon Chasing Sect could say anything, one of the four people in front of them interrupted. He hit himself on the head, as if he'd suddenly realized something.

"To tell you the truth, we've never had anything against one another before. Why do we have to fight against each other to the death here? We were forced to come here. If we had thought of this earlier, we wouldn't have lost so many men."

"He's right. We're too stupid. We've been fighting from the moment we came here and we haven't even entered the Life Forbidden Zone for God's sake! We have lost a good amount of people. From now on, I, Hugo, won't fight against you all."

"Me too. I'm also willing to coexist with you in peace."

"I agree as well."

The four of them all agreed, maybe it was because they finally understood what was really going on, or maybe it was because they feared Darren. All in all, they didn't want to get into another fight.

"Then let's go into the forbidden area together. I almost lost my life fighting you just now," the young man beside Darren said.

"We should have done this earlier. Those old dogs outside just treat us as beasts and don't care whether we live or die. If we manage to get the treasure, we should kill them!" Darren said angrily.

"Yes, you're right. Even though I'm a prodigy, I was still treated as an animal. If I get any chance to kill them, I'll definitely do it."

Anyone who was able to enter all the major sects was a prodigy. They were now determined to get revenge for the way they'd been treated.

"Stop talking nonsense. Let's go in together." With these words, Darren took two steps forward.

The remaining people watched them. They were a little weaker than the ones surrounding Darren, so they'd decided they would wait until Darren and the rest of his group left.

"Please." Darren let the others go in ahead of him.

"You're welcome. I wish you all the best in finding the treasure." One of them stepped on the footprint.

When nothing happened to him, the rest also stepped on the footprint and disappeared.

Eventually, it was Darren's turn. He stepped on it and his figure faded away.

A moment later, he was surrounded by purple mist unable to see more than ten meters in front of him. Even if his spiritual sense and Spirit Power were combined, he could only reach a hundred meters ahead.

Bang!

A figure knocked into him while he was studying his surroundings.

Darren frowned. When he was about to draw his sword and kill the man, a trembling voice reached his ears.

"Hey, it's me. Stop!"

Darren recognized him as the young man who had called him a fellow apprentice a moment ago.

Darren looked at him carefully, then froze for a second when he saw that half of his face's flesh had been torn off, revealing the horrible sight of his bones. There were also several scratches on his body that were bone-deep.

"What happened?" Darren growled urgently.

"No, you can't go in there. You can't go in there." That man's eyes were vacant, stuck in a state of infinite fear.

"Ah!"

Just then, a heart-wrenching howl came from not far away. A moment later, silence befell the place again.
