Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 490 It Was Him (Part Two)

"Alas! I did not expect that I can be attached to you and be grateful to you in the end. It should be destiny, and our fates are entwined. Besides, you have such surprising skills and brilliant potential at such a young age. You will surely grow into a great master in the future. It is a waste of good talent if you die.

But, now it seems that none of us could escape from here,"

Horace said calmly after praising and commending Darren.

On that occasion, while Horace and Darren were lost in their conversation, another dark greenish soul attack went shooting in the air, aiming at no other than Darren.

This time, the soul attack was so swift and disastrous that the naked eyes couldn't perceive it. Darren was not able to avoid it at all, and he was caught entirely unprepared. He was held frozen at the moment. All he did was watch the runes rush into his brain.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

At the impingement, Darren's body quivered violently, making him staggered and lost his balance. He thought his head was about to explode because of the searing pain. Feeling so hurt, he could not help rolling and crawling in the ground. Amidst the pain, a sense of familiarity crept through his thoughts. He seemed to have a familiar experience before that caused him the same painful experience.

"It's him! The one who attacked me in the demonic monster domain!"

Now that the memories flashed back on his mind, Darren understood why even the strange stone in his head could not block the soul attack. It was because of that guy!

Just in front of Darren, Horace and Rocky were held dazed and stood there looking at him. Their minds had completely blacked out at the turn of events, and they could do nothing to help Darren even if they wanted to. What they did, as their bodies suddenly felt numb and stiff, was to watch Darren roll on the ground. But to the cultivators’ surprise, Darren was still alive and did not die after such an omnipotent attack. After all, he was attacked by such a desolating and destructive soul attack.

Although the strange stone in Darren's head could not prevent the soul attack, the stone could weaken it, at least. The same circumstance happened last time when the same enemy attacked Darren in the demonic monster domain. Moreover, the strange stone could eliminate the soul attack slowly, given there was enough time.

Inside the forbidden area, that invisible man found out the unusual situation of being familiar with Darren as well. The moment he realized that it was his old-familiar enemy, when he launched this soul attack, he was overjoyed and laughed aloud.

"Haha! It is him. It is that guy who has a powerful soul! Your soul would rather be tasty for me." Over the years, the invisible man had sent his people to collect souls in the demonic monster domain. Everything went out smooth and fine until one day, some guy ruined his plans. When he started using his soul attack on the guy, he did not die! This fact would tell that the guy must have an extraordinarily powerful soul, too.

At that time, he was not able to capture that guy, and he was grave in regrets to let him slip through his fingers. But, now, by whatever twist of fate, that same guy appeared before him again. The invisible man assumed that he was in for a pleasant surprise.

'l will indulge with his soul and assimilate all his skills and treasures! the invisible man told himself as he plotted an evil plan in the shadows.

The invisible man in his desperate moves to achieve more considerable powers was stealing the Primitive Feminine Blood in Oliver's body in the forbidden area. Now, realizing there was a powerful soul in the dungeon, he quickly strode into the dungeon by crossing different spaces.

"What? Have you blocked the blood supply of my real body? How did you do that? All of you will die a painful death!” the invisible man got enraged and roared after he discovered that the blood supply of his body was stopped abruptly.

As he let out his vexations, his voice echoed across the boulders of the dungeon. Despite the seemingly loud human voice, both Horace and Rocky could not sense any human aura.

"Who are you? Show yourself!" Pulling all the courage that he had, Horace tried to remain his composure and dared the invisible man.

"Haha! I cannot believe you do not know who I am! The soul of your sect leader was satisfying. But, I was quite disappointed that he was really slow as he took so many years to search enough Primitive Feminine Bloodline for me! If only the disciples of our Soul Hunter Sect had taken actions freely, the task could have been finished earlier!"

"You are the head of the Soul Hunter Sect!" realizing that the persona behind the invisible man was the powerful head of a vile sect, Horace exclaimed loudly.

The Soul Hunter Sect was among the powerful evil sects, though weird in some ways. But having been restrained and exiled, they could only live in some small and particular areas designated exclusively to the sect. They even dared not step out the mountains of the eastern land, yet they had the freedom to enter some ancient ruins or some places like the demonic monster domain. "Such a pea-brain, you do learn so little! I am the ancestor of the Soul Hunter Sect. I founded the indestructible Soul Hunter Sect, and me alone!" the voice said coldly. The tone in his voice though oozing with arrogance and confidence, had some tinge of regret on it.

"What? Is that true? You mean you are the founder of the Soul Hunter Sect? It's impossible! As far as I know, the forerunner of the Soul Hunter Sect was a Soul Saint, who died thousands of years ago!" Horace had searched and read plenty of information about the Soul Hunter Sect. That was the reason why he knew this fact.

"Why would I bother to explain this to you, a weak ant? Now, shut up and let me swallow that young man's tasty and powerful soul.”

Finishing off with his words, a transparent human-like figure appeared. Without much haste, the figure dashed in the direction of Darren with a firm and steady flight.

At that moment, being bound under the attack made by the man earlier, Darren's soul was like pinned by millions of needles. One move and a searing pain would be felt. He was almost passing out and did not have any strength to fight back against the figure.

"Young man, before you die, give me that body containing the Primitive Feminine Bloodline. Do you understand?” the transparent figure said as he looked down on Darren, who was nearly unconscious on the ground

"No!" with a frail and almost inaudible voice, Darren uttered one word through his gritted teeth. "Good. That's very good. You are such a stubborn kid! I guess I just have to consume your soul and crush your small world to take it! Don't you think that's a good idea? Haha!" The transparent figure's eyes glowed with a cruel expression. In a quick instant, he rushed towards Darren like a wolf marking his food.
