Nobilis of War

Chapter 1353 Gathering Of Talents

About eighteen thousand kilometers away from the Archean mountain, Darren and the others could

already see its towering figure going straight into the thick clouds.

"Is that the Archean mountain?" It was Gatlin's first time to see the mountain. He immediately noticed

that it was incomparable with the other known mountains. It looked so magnificent.

"Yes. We have witnessed how it came into existence." However, when Darren saw the mountain again

this time, he somehow had a different feeling. He knew that its appearance was extraordinary, but now,

he felt like it was some kind of a sacred pillar that was oozing with majesty.

As they got closer to the Archean mountain, they encountered several figures flying here and there

from time to time.

Upon inspection of their bone age, they found out that they were equivalent to the cultivators around

twenty-five years of age in the mortal worlds.

It seemed that they had just cultivated for no more than ten thousand years in the Primitive Wilderness. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Despite that, they were surprised to perceive that many of these young cultivators were actually at the

Celestial God Realm already. Darren was thrilled and immediately concluded that that was what real

innate talent looked like. Moreover, according to the information that he received, these young talents

were disciples of several big shots, which would actually make sense.

As for Darren himself, he was quite a prominent figure to be summoned by three famous masters of the

human race at the same time.

Then, about ten thousand kilometers away from the Archean mountain, a purple-colored mist, which

seemed like a huge wall, eventually blocked their way.

"Before you pass through, we'll briefly hold an inquiry."

Darren and the others were suddenly surrounded by several armored generals who told them that they

had to ask some questions.

"Do you have the letter?"

One of the generals approached Darren, suspecting that he should be the only one that had been

summoned.

But to their surprise, Darren took out and handed three secret letters.

It seemed that something bad happened this time for them to be this strict in inspecting everyone that

wanted to go to the mountain. It also made sense why several important figures had also summoned

their disciples.

As the generals examined the letters, they were further surprised to see that they were all from very

important persons.

"All right. You may pass," the general said without hesitation and handed the letters back to Darren.

"Sir, may I ask what happened inside?" Gatlin tried to pry, worried that Darren might be welcomed by

an extremely dangerous situation upon going inside.

"You don't need to ask. You'll instantly know once you go in," the general answered briefly.

"Let's just go inside first and confirm it with our own eyes," Darren remarked as they prepared to pass

through the purple mist.

However, the generals quickly stopped them and said, "I'm sorry but you only have three confidential

letters, so only three of you can enter. That's the rule. The others should just wait outside."

"General, I'm his personal servant. Can't I go in?" Gatlin respectfully negotiated his request.

"We're just merely inspecting everyone. We didn't come up with the rules. Previously, a warrior at the

Superior God Realm escorted his young master up to this point. Even he didn't get to enter. The rule

strictly indicates that only those bearing the secret letter may enter. Please understand." The generals

explained the situation calmly. After all, the people with the secret letters all knew some well-known

masters. They couldn't make a scene that might hurt their reputation.

"It's alright, Gatlin. You can go back first. Lord Starry Sword and Finley's real body are with us. Rest

assured that we'll be just fine," Darren said with confidence.

"All right then, I'll just wait outside." Although Gatlin really wanted to accompany them, he couldn't just

insist on what he wanted. After all, he might also cause trouble for Darren and the others. Moreover, he

also had a status to take care of as a warrior at the middle-level of the Celestial God Realm, so he

couldn't afford to do anything rash.

"We'll go on ahead." Darren nodded at Gatlin and immediately went inside with Finley and Lindsay. The

two of them were able to get in since Darren had two other letters.

Weber also followed them but was briefly stopped. However, he just took out and showed his token and

was able to get inside. It was his proof that he also got summoned by his master.

As they went past through the purple mist, they soon found hundreds of young talents already sitting

with legs crossed in the void.

These young talents seemed to be not sitting in proper order, but they were somehow gathered in

groups of three or five. Darren and the others assumed that those who knew each other were grouped

together.

Moreover, they also noticed that the number of people entering the area was still increasing. They were

all warriors and disciples that had received confidential letters from famous masters and figures.

"Wow! Look at all those handsome men and beautiful women," Weber exclaimed. He was taken aback

upon seeing all those elegant and good-looking men. But his eyes lit up when he saw the women that

looked more stunning than the immortals.

"You disgusting fat guy! How can you still be in the mood to stare at beautiful women, knowing how

dangerous our situation could be?" Lindsay gave him an earful.

"Who cares? They are right in front of my eyes! What do you want me to do? Close my eyes?" Weber

dismissed what Lindsay said and continued looking at all these women with his eyes full of lustful

desires.

"Hey! Look at that one. She's almost as beautiful as you!" Weber's eyes widened at the sight of this

particular woman.

His words immediately sent a shiver down Lindsay's spine. She felt so disgusted that she wanted to

throw up. Meanwhile, she also felt flattered.

Finley suddenly kicked him in the ass and said, "Can you shut up and behave yourself?"

"Hey! Why would you kick me? It's none of your busi—"

"Enough!" Darren had enough and shouted at Weber before he could even finish what he was saying

to Finley. "Be quiet and sit down, or I'll be the one to kick you."

"Y-yes, boss." With that, Weber just sat with his legs crossed in the void, but his eyes were still

wandering around, causing several women to look back at him with disdainful eyes. After all, these

young talents had high cultivation bases, and they could easily discern if someone had a malicious

intent on them.

After about six hours of waiting, there were already more than a thousand young talents that had

gathered in the area.

"Sorry for keeping all of you waiting."

Out of nowhere, three figures with extraordinary auras appeared in front of the crowd.

Behind them stood some black-robed cultivators that carried several large boxes.

All the people present couldn't help but guess the content of the boxes. One could easily say that most

of the young talents were refined geniuses with such a pleasing demeanor.

"Thank you all for coming.

I know that many things are going on in your heads, and you're also quite confused as to why you were

summoned here," one of the three figures said, building up the expectation of the audience.

Everyone was holding their breath and was extremely eager to know the answer.

"But we'll talk about that later."

The audience let out deep sighs and was pretty annoyed after being left hanging. Even Weber cursed

in a low voice. He thought that if the speaker hadn't been so powerful, he would have definitely rushed

over and punched him in the face.

"Hand out the items first," the elder in the lead ordered the black-robed cultivators to begin the

distribution of the items from the boxes.

Then, several big boxes were simultaneously opened. Some of them were filled with pills, while some

of them were filled with runes. The other boxes were filled with various types of divine patterns.

Soon, the men in black robes started moving and distributed the items accordingly.

They moved rapidly, and in no time, everyone was already handed a set of each kind.

Each of them received two Talent-upgrading Elixirs, two Resuscitation Elixirs, a Space-crossing Rune,

a Power-strengthening Rune, an Indestructible Rune, and two types of divine patterns—each type

composed of six level-nine divine patterns.

However, Darren noticed that he only got one type of divine pattern.

Soon enough, a man in black flew over to him.

"Darren, we don't have the venomous divine patterns, so you only have six penetrating divine

patterns."

Darren was actually pretty surprised upon hearing this. It turned out that the divine patterns were

distributed according to the type that each of them already had.

He was amazed that these people even knew what kind of divine patterns he had. It was mind-

boggling, so he actually wanted to ask how they knew this information.

But then Darren realized that these people came from the Ancestral Land. Thus, he assumed that they

had the capability to get all kinds of information on everyone.

'Well, how they were able to get our information isn't the biggest question right now. They still haven't

told us why we are here and why they are handing all these precious items to us.' At this point, Darren

was racking his brain to get some answers but he couldn't arrive with one.

For example, the Talent-upgrading Elixirs were so precious that even the lord of a region could only

afford to reward a few to his most talented disciples.

But this time, the Ancestral Land gave out around three thousand of these elixirs.

Another item given was the Resuscitation Elixir. It was usually refined by a Deputy God Realm rule

cultivator who possessed life divine patterns. Even if a warrior at the top level of the Celestial God

Realm was killed, this elixir could still save him.

The Space-crossing Rune could instantly enable someone to teleport across a distance of ten

thousand kilometers. Then, the Power-strengthening Rune could readily increase a warrior's

comprehensive combat power by ten times without giving off any side effects. Lastly, possessing the

Indestructible Rune was equivalent to having the Golden Indestructible Body. With it, the cultivator

would be able to easily resist the attacks from a Superior God Realm warrior.

Even just a single one of these items was extremely valuable. For them to distribute these to several

people, there should be a very huge reason behind it. Now, Darren couldn't wait to hear what that

reason was.
