Chapter 1364 The Inheritance
Chapter 1364 The Inheritance
At this moment, even Darren was a little surprised that Finley's real body and Lord Starry Sword would
defend him.
After all, almost everyone thought that Darren had killed several young geniuses out of no reason. If
these two masters supported him, it would not be farfetched if they were confronted by other great
masters too.
But the two masters obviously didn't care about that right now. Their only objective was to protect
Darren. They even threatened that whoever hurt Darren would die.
Although the two masters didn't show up, their voices were enough to intimidate the young talents.
They didn't dare make a move now.
Everyone glared at Darren and his companions while they waited for their masters' orders through
spiritual sense.
After about fifteen minutes, the atmosphere was still very tense but became extremely quiet. It seemed
that no other master spoke to their disciples through spiritual sense again.
Darren assumed that the other masters deemed that the power of Lord Starry Sword and Finley's real
body was too strong for them to take on. As a result, the cultivators at the Superior God Realm and
even higher were forced to back off.
After everything calmed down, and the young talents started to disperse, Darren and his companions
also planned to leave. After all, Darren still hadn't fulfilled his goal—to rescue Akbar.
"Darren, don't go yet."
Just as Darren was about to leave, the voice of Finley's real body echoed in his mind.
"Why? What's the matter?" Darren was a bit confused as to why Finley's real body would suddenly stop
him.
"The real inheritance of the Archean relic is about to open. You need to enter and obtain the inheritance
so that we can leave this place safe and sound."
Hearing this, Darren was utterly shocked. This was the only time he realized what was really going on.
"Wait. You mean you're also trapped?" Darren asked.
"Yes, and there are several others as well…"
It turned out that not only Akbar but also more masters were ensnared. Surprisingly, even powerful
masters were not able to escape.
Darren couldn't start imagining what on earth was in the Archean relic that could entrap all of these
great masters.
"But how? You were captured despite your strength?" Darren couldn't help but ask straightforwardly.
"It's because of the time turbulent flows," Finley's real body answered briefly.
Then, it finally dawned on Darren's mind. In this world, if there was one thing that could restrain so
many great masters, it would be no other than the time turbulent flows. That was why the Time Law
was considered to be the strongest law in the world.
From what the real body of Finley said, there was no doubt that warriors at the Superior God Realm This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
and the Deputy God Realm were caught in the trap. If somehow, a really powerful time turbulent flow
occurred, even the chief gods might not be able to withstand it.
"Don't worry. The time turbulent flows in here are not unbreakable. However, it will still need a lot of
time and effort to completely destroy them. We are just afraid that when the other races get a hold of
the news that numerous masters were missing at the same time, they might take advantage of the
situation and attack the human race. That's why we agreed to summon all of the young talents that we
know.
It doesn't matter who, but as long as anyone can successfully control the real relic, we will also be
released. We sincerely hope that everyone can safely get out of here," Lord Starry Sword explained.
Now, Darren fully understood that reason why none of the great masters ever mentioned why they
summoned the young talents to this place. It was necessary to protect the information that they were
trapped to be leaked out. After all, once it happened, a huge commotion would most likely happen.
"All right. I got it," Darren replied with conviction. He was prepared to do whatever it took to acquire the
relic inheritance and free the captured masters.
Regardless of all other factors, in mere consideration that Finley's real body and Lord Starry Sword
saved him from a difficult situation just now, Darren vowed to help them as well. Whether he would be
able to control the relic inheritance or not didn't really matter.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Suddenly, a loud sound of a bell ringing spread through the entire Archean relic.
"What's happening?"
"Where does the sound of the bell come from?"
Most of the young talents that didn't know the truth became very wary and terrified upon hearing the
bell. It was as if an ominous sound to them.
However, Darren quickly discerned that this was probably the sign that the opening of the so-called
relic inheritance was nearing.
Then, out of nowhere, a violent storm suddenly rose from the ground and engulfed them.
"Run!"
At the sight of the vicious storm, everyone quickly attempted to flee.
However, they soon realized that the strong force was sweeping all over the place, preventing them to
freely fly.
In an instant, everyone was eventually sucked into the growling storm.
While all of this was happening, Darren and his companions just stayed calm, knowing that this was
just a part of what they had to go through.
However, they didn't expect that the Primitive Emperor would be rejected by the storm.
After some time, someone had finally woken up from within the darkness.
Immediately after, most of the young talents opened their eyes one after another.
"What is this place? Where am I?"
As they looked around, they saw countless huge figures, standing firmly in the middle of the
wilderness.
Among them, there was a monster with a long spear in its hand, whose head was like a lion's but its
body was like a horse's.
There was also a giant python with peculiar-looking bone wings on its back.
There were several others too—a dragon with nine heads, a giant ape holding a bow and arrow…
All sorts of strange-looking creatures, which were as large as mountains, were fixed on the ground.
"Wait. The inheritance had been opened?"
"So does that mean that we're here to take the Archean inheritance?!"
Then, one by one, the once panic-stricken people had finally received the messages from their
respective masters and came to know what was really happening.
"Ha-ha! Don't worry. I have explored many dangerous places before. Finding something like this should
be an easy task for me. Just watch me!"
"Oh! That's a good thing. If I happen to get the inheritance, my strength should increase sharply!"
All of these young talents had somehow turned their previous worries into motivations.
"Darren, seize the opportunity. In the next few moments, the time turbulent flows that we are in are
going to change. At that time, we won't be able to communicate with you." Finley's real body gave a
heads up.
"Darren, you're the only one I could entrust with this. Help me take care of my two disciples," Lord
Starry Sword said, giving his final words before their communication was cut off.
"I'll do my best," Darren simply replied. Soon after, the auras of Lord Starry Sword and Finley's real
body completely dissipated as if they had suddenly gone to a distant place.
Since the two of them were being restricted by the time turbulent flows, Darren assumed that right now,
all of the other masters must be in the same situation.
"Ha! Now there is no one to defend him anymore. I think we should continue what we didn't finish
earlier. Why don't we get rid of this troublemaker first? Otherwise, he will start killing us all!" Donnie
shouted on purpose, so the others could also hear.
Upon hearing what he said, several young talents began looking at Darren and his companions with
contemptuous eyes.
"What a bunch of idiots! Don't act too righteous when you're just actually a group of ignorant fools!"
Eallard, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up.
"What the hell, Eallard! What are you talking about? Why are you taking that bastard's side?" someone
angrily asked.
Several people there knew who Eallard was. He was known to be upright, straightforward, and honest.
But what they couldn't understand was why he suddenly seemed to be on Darren's side. They couldn't
help but think that he was somehow manipulated.
"Eallard! What did this guy do to you? Were you threatened? We can beat them up. They're
outnumbered!" Another young talent threw furious remarks.
Eallard shook his head and said, "You pitiful nitwits… Let me tell you the truth then."
Without hesitation, Eallard told them every detail of what had happened earlier.
"So, now tell me... After knowing the truth, do you still think that Darren is in the wrong?" Eallard said
sternly as his gaze swept across everyone's faces.
"Wait. Are you serious?" one of them asked. His voice clearly stated that he was taken aback from
what he learned.
"Why? Did you ever hear me tell a lie? I clearly saw the ones who refused to save their peers' lives
when they were in a life-threatening situation. And then now what? These bastards have the guts to
give false charges and even incite everyone to kill Darren. How the hell can I just sit still while I watch
this extreme absurdity happen before my eyes?!
So let me say it just this once. If anyone of you wants to kill Darren, you will have to step over my dead
body first!"
Eallard's face immediately darkened. His righteous indignation was burning furiously.
If it was someone else who stood up for Darren, they might have easily doubted it. However, most of
them knew Eallard's character very well. Even people who didn't know him personally had heard of his
virtuous ways of doing things.
"Damn it. It seems that some shameful people are using us without any remorse."
Upon hearing what Eallard had said, everyone turned to the more than twenty people who had fought
the skeletons and fled back in a disheveled manner earlier. While Eallard was furiously speaking, his
eyes were definitely focused on them.
"Hey! Tell us what really happened! Is Eallard telling the truth?"
"Why can't anyone of you speak? You filthy monsters! How dare you stir up enmity and even falsely
accuse someone innocent?!" Someone began showing a killing intent, extremely pissed that they had
the guts to stir up trouble in this kind of situation.
"Ha! Fine! So what? Who are you to tell us when to lend or not to lend our elixirs? Even if we were
wrong, it was just a small mistake. However, he just watched my companions be killed by the skeletons
and didn't offer any help! He even took away all of our elixirs and runes in the end!
Now tell me who was more shameless?!"
