Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 848 The Wrath Of The Blue-skinned Man

The blue-skinned man's eyes darted around the mining area. Nothing that had once surrounded him was left standing. He had been afraid of this and now that dust and smoke was stinging his eyes, the blue-skinned man felt doom overcome him.

Despite the blue-skinned man having had control over the mining area, Darren had destroyed everything. The blue-skinned man had thought he could easily defeat Darren, but Darren was clearly more powerful than anticipated.

"What's wrong? Did I hurt your feelings?"

Darren raised his head, looking at him scornfully.

"You!" The blue-skinned man felt anger rush into his body so fast that his entire body began trembling. His fists clenched and his teeth gritted back and forth against each other. It seemed like the ground beneath him was quaking. Deep in his heart, he felt uneasy about the consequences. Even if he were to make it out of this alive, his life would end because the mining area had been destroyed, and the Death Palace would not be able to forgive him.

The whole reason behind the Death Palace's painstaking efforts all these years was to acquire these crystals.

Darren stood casually with his arms crossed. He understood that the ball was in his court and the blue-skinned man could do nothing. Extending his spiritual sense, he probed the multitude of particles that had scattered around the mine.

"Hmm... Should I destroy all these crystals?" Darren thought for a while. Finally, he decided to keep the crystals until he had killed the blue-skinned man and collected them

"Go to hell!"

The blue-skinned man felt anger jump in him again but his heart sank as he knew he was doomed. He would die in this mine or outside of it, and the choice was not his to make.

Suddenly, the blue-skinned man moved. Using his full strength, he left a gigantic crack in the earth that spread far into the distance. Pieces of rock and chunks of dirt fell away into the inky blackness. Whoosh!

Darren leaped from the ground just before it swallowed him up and flew into the void above him. "You're running away?"

the blue-skinned man asked before he laughed and chased after Darren.

“Perfect, * Darren thought, smiling widely. The blue-skinned man's strength was equivalent to that of a human junior holy warrior, and combing their two skill levels in a fight would have destroyed this land even further. That was why he flew to the void.

After Darren had gone ten thousand kilometers into the void, he stopped.

Bang!

A dark gold internal force appeared and shattered the space, just narrowly missing the blue-skinned man,

"What?" The blue-skinned man couldn't believe what he was seeing. Darren's power was so strong that he couldn't see a way out. An ominous feeling spread all the way to his extremities.

As more attacks flew his way, the blue-skinned man didn't try to dodge the attacks. Instead, he pulled out an axe and swung it in front of him. From the source of the axe’s impact, a dark blue force rushed towards Darren.

Bang!

As the two forces collided, colors shot out in every direction and Darren's dark golden internal force glowed a little brighter. It seemed it had engulfed the other and become stronger from it.

Like a flash, the blue-skinned man dashed towards Darren. From all directions, tens of thousands of shadows sprung towards Darren due to the fast speed the blue-skinned man traveled at.

In a second, tens of thousands of attacks were flung at Darren

Darren raised his hands and swatted away the attacks like they were flies.

"You are too weak to hurt me.” Darren snorted with disdain. He could kill the blue-skinned man without much effort.

"Augmented Attack Bloodline!"

The aura that was pulsating around Darren's body increased sharply, and his blade and sword intents reached their limits.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The aura spread out, releasing blades and swords that shot into the void and left flawless tracks of light behind. Cuts that resembled wounds were gashed into the void.

"Argh!"

The figure of the blue-skinned man slowed down and he grabbed at his skin. Covering his entire body were small cuts that reached all the way to his exposed bone.

"Human, I will tear you to pieces!"

Closing his eyes and clamping his jaws together, the blue-skinned man reached down and began peeling off his skin in large strips. Agony flashed across his face but he carried on until he was a man with no skin, dripping with blood.

Afterwards, to Darren's horror, he picked up the pieces of torn skin and swallowed them whole. "What are you doing?" Darren screwed up his face in disgust.

"Howl!"

Just when Darren thought it couldn't get any worse, the blue-skinned man let out a how! of pain, and gleaming thorns poked out of his body. Darren could hear the sound of them breaking through the flesh from where he was standing. The blue-skinned man had gotten very close to the senior stage of the Holy Realm

"Wow!" Darren didn't know how to approach the situation.

However, he knew the blue-skinned man posed no threat to him, even in this disgusting state. After all, if Darren couldn't defeat him, he could always escape within seconds.

Of course, there was no need for Darren to escape because he was going to win.

"Fine! If you want to be like that, I'll show you!"

Darren spun on the spot and transformed into a dragon. It was the easiest way he knew how to deal with the situation.

The dark dragon that reared up on its legs in front of the blue-skinned man roared ferociously, causing him to gasp.

"You are a dragon!"

Darren ignored him, everyone always had the same reaction. He lowered himself and dragged his tail back and forth on the ground.

Each time it swept by, pieces of the space were destroyed and sent flying.

Bang!

Unable to escape the large, trunk-like tail, the blue-skinned man was knocked off his feet and thrown backward.

Collecting himself, the blue-skinned man appeared to not be injured from the impact. He stood and his entire body became rigid as he waited for Darren.

Darren chased after him and searched the area to find his hopefully deceased body.

“Howl!”

Unfortunately, the blue-skinned man had not died. Instead, he had become even crazier. Reaching out, he grabbed hold of Darren's dragon tail and opened his mouth wide to bite him.

Crack!

Crying out in pain, Darren looked back to see that the blue-skinned man had crushed most of the bones in his tail using his teeth.

Horrible!

Continuing to bite his tail, the blue-skinned man laughed maniacally.

"I'm going to eat you alive!”

Quickly, he moved past the tail and began to bite Darren.

Darren's body turned red out of pain. Like a volcano bursting to erupt, he could feel anger coursing through his veins.

Bang!

With a stream of blood light, the blue-skinned man was knocked over.

"What kind of power is this?"

The blue-skinned man looked slowly down at his abdomen which was gashed open. Blood was pooling onto the ground around him.

"Roar!"

Above him, the scarlet dragon dove towards him.

It raised its arms and shot thousands of claws into the air.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

One at a time, the claws penetrated the blue-skinned man's hard flesh, stripping away until only a skeleton was left behind.

Crack!

Darren landed next to him and picked up his skeleton. With a groan, he crushed his bones.

"No!"

The blue-skinned man couldn't believe that there was such a powerful force in the world!

Darren squeezed harder, and the blue figure turned into powder and dissipated in the air. Standing straight, Darren transformed back to his human form and looking down, he saw that the flesh on his legs had disappeared, eaten up by the blue-skinned man.

Sitting down, he hurriedly assimilated the ancient spiritual crystals and repaired his injury. Two hours later, his flesh and blood began to emerge again and covered the wounds.

"I must have underestimated that blue-skinned man."

Darren had expected to kill him easily, but after the blue-skinned man had eaten his own skin, his defenses increased, making it harder to destroy him.

After he had fully recovered, Darren leaped back into the mining area.

He spread his spiritual sense to look for crystals the size of a grain that were hidden in the ruins. An hour later, Darren had collected many crystals and he carefully placed them all in his Space Ring for safe keeping.

Then, just in case, he traveled deep into the earth in search of more crystals, but did not find any. After collecting, Darren flew away.

Not long after he had left, three figures appeared in the mine.

"What's this? Those damn humans! They think that they can destroy our mining area. Well, they can die for it!"

"Kill! Kill all the human beings!"

"Hold on. Don't get too excited. It's not the time yet. When the holy emperor's corpse comes back to life, all the human beings will be dead. We have to be patient.”

"But dark-spirit crystals have been stolen. I'm afraid the time will extend.”

"Then we will have to slaughter tens of millions of humans first as compensation! And I know just who took the dark-spirit crystals. It was this human. We have to catch and kill him."

An image of Darren's face appeared in the air as he spoke.

"It's him!" one of the blue-skinned men asked, frowning at Darren's picture.

"Do you know him, Conrad?"

"He is a talented human. He stole a human girl who possessed great potential that we had cultivated. We wanted to kill him, but he disappeared.

I didn't expect him to grow so strong in such a short time. Let me kill him myself."

"Okay. You kill him then. It's time for us to go back," another blue-skinned man said with a tired look on his face.

"Sirs, please wait for my good news," said Conrad.

"Don't let the elders and leader know about this. Otherwise, we'll be doomed."

"Sure."

As they stood gathered together and spoke, a human figure appeared.

"How dare you come to our human territory? Do you want to provoke us?" the human figure shouted.

If Darren were here, he would have definitely recognized this person. He was Talcott, a man of the senior stage of the Holy Realm.

"You are right. This time we will not only provoke you humans, we will kill the ants like you." With a flash of glee on his face, Conrad charged at his target, ready to kill.

Bang!

With a single strike, Talcott's body exploded before he could even react.
