Talented Martial Hero -
Chapter 421 Sending A Message
"Wait!" Darren used all of his strength to call out. Then he added, "Mr. Cain, there is no use in you killing him. Besides, you will attract trouble if you do so!"
"Oh?" As Cain was intrigued by Darren's words, he stopped his attack on Abelard halfway. Meanwhile, fright made Abelard's heart beat faster in his chest. He could swear that he smelled death just now. He also saw his life flashing in front of his eyes in that second. He had been so close to the end of his life. He had wanted to anger Cain to force him to leave them and join the fight in the sky. But he hadn't expected that Cain would want to kill him on sight. Abelard couldn't help but feel frightened for his life.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Tell me. What trouble am I getting myself into?" Cain asked as he glared at Darren.
"If I sensed correctly, you won't have the strength to surpass a five-star grand warrior even after using all these dead bodies to cultivate. If you kill Abelard, six-star grand warriors will come for you. Even if you find a way to hide from them, you will still be doomed. Why don't you save yourself the predicament by letting us live?" Darren tried to stall for time by making up an excuse.
"Tut, tut! Six-star grand warriors. That's quite worrying. Even if six-star grand warriors come to avenge the death of this filthy little bastard, how will they know that I murdered him? They won't find out because dead men don't speak, for God's sake! Do you really think that you can trick me into believing you? Were you so confident that I wouldn't notice the imprint planted on him? You are also a filthy human, full of lies. I am sick of you humans.”
Darren's expression hardened when he heard Cain. He then said calmly, "Well, if you don't believe me, Mr. Cain, you can kill us all. I will presume that you are not afraid of six-star grand warriors because of your strong power."
"Ha-ha! You want me to kill you? No, I won't! But, remember that I didn't kill you three only because you called me Mr. Cain, not because of your lies. I will let you live for now. After I successfully practice my special skill, I will find you and kill you!"
Grand demonic monster Cain was at least a five-star grand demonic monster. It was easy for him to kill the human martial artists levitating in the sky as they were only three-star grand warriors. And yet, he didn't fight them in person. Instead, he tricked them into using their strongest skill by sending his avatar. Darren could tell that he was a very cautious and prudent demonic monster. And that was the only reason why Darren's words affected Cain.
Although Cain had scoffed at the warning, he had believed Darren. He just wouldn't admit it. As careful and cautious as he was, Cain wouldn't invite trouble before upgrading his power. His over- cautiousness had saved their lives.
Right at this moment, a fight began in the sky. The human grand warriors charged at the grand demonic monster Cain's avatar.
Much to Darren's surprise, the avatar's strength was almost equivalent to that of a five-star grand warrior.
"Let's use the Sky Piercing Array to kill this bastard!"
A few of the grand warriors had almost lost their lives while fighting Cain's avatar. So, Jacob instructed the others to summon this powerful skill, without a second thought. He believed that this was the only way to kill the fierce demonic monster.
The twenty grand warriors took their places, forming a complicated pattern. A crystal made of force started to burn at the same time that the array was created.
The cultivators of the eastern land had invented the crystal made of force after years of refining. Considering its power, the grand warriors were confident it would help them to kill a five-star grand demonic monster.
After it had burned completely, the twenty grand warriors united as one, and the power of the aura around them increased manifold. Their strength seemed to have surpassed that of Cain's avatar! "Huh. Is this all that you are capable of? Alas, I thought they were stronger than this. It seems that I'm too careful.” Cain shook his head and mocked the grand warriors disdainfully after he felt their power.
"You are not cautious. You are a coward," Abelard mocked.
He was still afraid for his life. But at the same time, Abelard could see through Cain. He knew that the demonic monster was prudent, but he was also thirsty for power.
As Abelard had seen Cain's desire to fight after being taunted the previous time, he dared to anger Cain again. As Cain was a five-star grand demonic monster, it was natural for him to feel ashamed for being intimidated by twenty three-star grand warriors.
"Humph! All right, let me show you my true strength!”
Just as Abelard expected, his words triggered Cain's fury. Sensing that he wasn't in any danger, Cain flew toward the sky confidently. He ignored his three captives.
Though Cain had left, the restriction spell on Darren, Timothy, and Abelard didn't disappear. They still couldn't move.
"Send a message now, Timothy!" Abelard quickly instructed his friend. Delight was evident on his face as he had succeeded in making Cain leave.
"Okay!" Timothy nodded.
"What is going on?" Darren didn't understand what Timothy and Abelard were doing.
"My master gave me an arcane skill. If I use it to send a message, he will come to my rescue. I believe that, as the young master of the Western Desert Island, Timothy also has a similar arcane skill,” Abelard explained simply so that Darren could understand.
"Yeah. If I send a message to them, they will come to our aid. But, I am not sure that we can hold on till they arrive,” Timothy said. Doubt reflected in his expression.
"But there's one problem. Will the martial artists you call, be able to fight against a five-star grand demonic monster?" Darren was aware that in the Bottom Spiritual World, three-star grand warriors were the most powerful martial artists. Even if Abelard and Timothy called for help, Darren was afraid that the warriors that would come to save them wouldn't be able to kill Cain, either.
"Ha-ha," Abelard and Timothy laughed in unison after hearing Darren's question. They weren't worried.
"Don't worry, Darren. My master can kill Cain for sure!" Abelard was the first to reassure Darren. "Yeah, the warriors of my clan can kill Cain as well,” Timothy replied, confidently.
With their assurances, Darren felt relief course through him. He believed that they weren't exaggerating. After all, it was his experience that Timothy and Abelard didn't lie.
After comforting Darren, Abelard and Timothy remained silent. They focused on activating their arcane skills to send a message to alert their masters about what was happening here.
After that, all they could do was wait patiently.
In the sky, the twenty grand warriors released the array as they were still fighting with Cain's avatar. As the fight between the three-star grand warriors and a five-star grand demonic monster increased in intensity, the ground started to shake.
"Devastation Skill!"
The twenty grand warriors used their strongest skill in unison.
More than a hundred thousand shadows of palm, sword, blade, and fist were aimed at Cain's avatar. What a powerful strike!
The blow was so strong that it tore open a few cracks in the thin air, exposing frightening darkness. "Roar!"
Cain's avatar bellowed as he transformed into a huge dark green monster after sensing the power that the grand warriors had unleashed.
"He is an Invisible Panther!”
Darren's heart skipped a beat when he saw the dark green figure. Although Cain restricted Timothy, Abelard, and Darren, they could observe the fight from this distance.
'No wonder he can use the skills of a rule cultivator. He even cut off my connection with the Ancient Void Battlefield.’
After witnessing how the Water Kylin had been stranded by the Invisible Panthers the last time, Darren was aware that they were not only good at hiding, but they were also masters of restriction skills. It wouldn't surprise Darren if Cain could use even more powerful skills, for he was truly a strong demonic monster.
"Oh, they are fucked," Darren couldn't help but mumble when he learned of Cain's true identity. He was worried for the martial artists because he was aware that they could never win against an Invisible Panther.
And just as Darren expected, when the grand warriors launched their strongest skill at Cain's avatar, the avatar disappeared into thin air. No trace or smell of him could be detected. It was as if he had never existed.
