Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 605 Inherited Magic Herbs

Darren then moved on cautiously. With fog surrounding him, this place looked even darker and more terrifying.

He wasn't afraid of it. After all, he was a powerful martial artist.

The way narrowed as he moved forward. In the current scenario, Darren's spiritual sense could only cover an area of dozens of meters around him.

This strange atmosphere made him even more curious about what was going on inside.

Darren continued to move forward. In the narrow channel between the black rocks, he saw a weak green light.

"Huh!"

Darren's heart skipped a beat. He knew what the green light was. It was the green magic herb he had absorbed before.

Hundreds of such herbs stood on both sides of the mountain wall. He had to tilt his head up to see them all. It was probably hundreds of meters high.

Darren did not hesitate at all and prepared himself for flying over.

Just as he took off, his brows snapped together after he felt a little pressure that went against his direction. The pressure intensified, but he kept flying and clenched his jaw to suppress the urge to retreat.

With his power and strength, he only flew more than two hundred meters high and picked dozens of such herbs.

"It's a weird place. It seems like something is suppressing me." Darren's forehead crease grew deeper only when he started finding it hard to go against the pressure anymore.

He sighed and flew back to where he was initially standing. Dozens of herbs were enough for him to absorb for a while.

Darren sat on the ground with his legs crossed, trying to absorb the green herbs.

He felt a steady stream of warmth coursing through his body. The energy from the herbs surrounded him and started entering his body as if he had been an empty vessel.

After what felt like hours, he was done absorbing all the green herbs.

Darren woke up from his trance and picked up his divine sword. His hand gripped the sword tightly only to force its pointed end at his stomach.

Clang!

A crisp sound rang out. The divine sword did not pierce through his skin. It only left a white trace on his body.

"Good!" Darren was thrilled. He had just used sixty percent of his power to stab the skin. Typically, with this strength, he could pierce a seven-star grand warrior.

He swung the blade toward his arm with force.

This strike was full of sword and blade intents, and it had used more than eighty percent of his strength.

After another crisp sound, a shallow wound appeared on his arm, like a thin blood line.

"I merely broke my skin when I used more than eighty percent of my strength. So my physical strength has increased more than ten times!

What kind of magic herb is it? It's just so powerful!"

He darted his eyes at the swaying herbs on the mountain wall. He assumed that there might be three hundred more of them! Darren made up his mind to get them with all his might.

Whoosh!

Darren dashed forward at full speed.

His pace went slow when he reached about a few meters high. When the pressure became too hard to handle, he released his own force to go against it.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pierce it with his sword and blade intents.

This time, Darren tried his best to pick more than one hundred herbs shining with the green light. Bang!

His hand reached for one more herb when he felt another pressure, and he flew back to the ground, hastily.

About ten pairs of eyes were lit up in the dark.

'What? I didn't even feel any aura at all."

Darren's eyes went wide. He didn't even notice it at all before he was attacked by something. “Is the thing much stronger than me?" he wondered.

Darren dared not to be careless again.

"I'm just passing by here. If I offend you, I'll leave at once,” Darren said in a low voice, acting polite. There was no response.

Darren could only see those bright eyes coming at him. He frowned when he didn't receive any response, and anger in his heart grew stronger.

"Humph! Then I'll kill you!"

Darren gave a cold snort, and the sword and blade intents started to vibrate suddenly.

He flew over like a shooting star as well. The small space was filled with thousands of sword and blade intents.

Bang!

The dark gold internal force surged out like tide.

Darren had no idea what the enemies were, so he used his most powerful skills.

A vibrant sound rang in the ears, and the figures constantly flickered.

"They dodged?”

Darren was a little surprised. He then used the Air-integrated True Rule, so the unknown things couldn't feel his aura anymore.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Darren targeted a pair of eyes and darted at the thing.

Bang!

Darren furrowed his eyebrows when he heard the sound of his blade clinking against something hard.

He pursed his lips and thought if he hadn't used his sword and blade intents, he wouldn't have cut through the thing's body.

After activating more blade and sword intents, Darren heard the sound of his blade slashing something hard, and his shoulders started to relax. He looked carefully and noticed that the thing's head was split in half. The body fell on the ground with a loud bang.

Darren tried to assimilate the dead body's martial arts talent, but found nothing.

"I got it." Darren's eyes brightened due to excitement. "These are metal lives!”

He couldn't detect them with his spiritual sense, and his attack on the thing was with a crisp sound. Not only that, it was powerful, but with no martial arts talent. It could only be those ruthless metal creatures after all

These metal creatures were not weak at all. They all had the power close to that of a seven-star grand warrior at the top level, but their skills were too simple and could not threaten Darren in any way.

An hour later, Darren had gotten rid of all these metal creatures.

A squeak gained Darren's attention, and he turned around.

A door creaked open beneath the mountain.

Darren's eyes squinted because of the piercing light pouring out of the door. It illuminated the lower space in the narrow crack.

His brows drew together when he noticed the height of the door. The light couldn't go up a hundred meters high.

The realization hit his mind, and the crease on his brows grew deeper. "Is there someone coming out?"

Darren flew to the edge of the cliff that was more than two hundred meters high and observed. Three figures walked out of the door.

Darren looked at them and scanned them from head to toe. There were two men and one woman. One of them was a tall man with bulging muscles all over his body. Another man was a young man wearing animal skins, and the woman also had the same thing wrapped around her body. The only different thing was the mask on her face.

"Humph! I can't believe you two have reached the last challenge with me at the same time. You do have some strength,”

the tall and strong man roared in a low voice.

"Your strength is also not bad, Riley from the Bulk Tribe.”

"Cut the crap. I think we'd better cooperate if we want to kill the danger to get the inherited magic herbs.” The woman's cold eyes stared at them for a while.

"Fuck off! The inherited magic herbs are all mine. Who wants to cooperate with you two?"

the strong man called Riley roared and rushed straight inside.

He looked up, stamped his feet, and the ground was covered with countless cracks. His body rushed up

“This guy is almost as powerful as me in terms of physical strength. Who the hell are they?"

Darren did not show up. He was observing from above.

When the strong man rushed up, the young man with animal skins couldn't help but want to rush up as well.

"What a fool you are! Haven't your patriarch told you about the existence of a mighty guardian who is protecting the inherited magic herbs in the last challenge? Just wait, Riley is about to get hurt.” The woman wearing a mask sneered. Her eyes landed on the stilled young man with animal skins. The big man sprinted to the spot about 200 meters high, and it was 80 meters lower than where Darren was hiding.

"Ha-ha, I get it!"

The strong man obtained a thumb-sized herb that emitted a green light.

This herb was too small so Darren didn't pick it up.

Whoosh!

A sound of air-breaking came, and a blood hole appeared on the strong man's arm.

His mouth hung open, and he took a few steps back.

"Watch out! The guardian is coming!" The woman's face paled for a second, and she couldn't help but shout loudly.

The three of them stood in a stance and stared at around the cliff with narrow eyes. They stood like a statue, but nothing happened.

Darren smirked above them. It was him who threw a small stone at the strong man, and it hit through his arm.

"You can leave now. You don't deserve the inherited magic herbs.”

Darren released his hidden strength to circle around his throat. The impact made his cold voice echo throughout the cliff.

The three of them trembled momentarily before coming back to their senses. "Ah, the guardian has spoken. What should we do now?"

The young man dressed in animal skins retreated a step. He felt that the master of the voice was very powerful.
