Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1020 Inheritance

Darren was a little upset to have reached the end of the test.

"Alas! In order to replace out who killed him, Emperor Yahya had set up such an elaborate test. In theend, he still could not figure out who did it!"

Darren was wondering who had killed Yahya.

"Ah, forget it. Just rest in peace, Yahya." Darren bowed towards the crystal coffin.

Returning to ancient times allowed Darren to gain much.

First, he would be able to improve his strength by inheriting the Fire and Water Emperor Character.Second, he would be able to analyze the battles of previous emperors in order to learn how to makehis cultivation better. Last and most importantly, he finally discovered the secret behind the River ofForgetfulness.

"Why did the avatar say that? How could he think that the mysterious warrior who had survived thethunder punishment for Conflicting Cultivation was me? And that I would be the one to kill me?”Darren could not understand.

"Never mind. I'll just cross that bridge when I get there.”

Darren shook his head, releasing a force to awaken Hailey.

"Are we out?" Hailey, dazed, looked around her.

"Yes. Yahya committed suicide. The test is over.” Darren nodded.

"Oh, it's finally over.” Hailey was relieved. Suddenly, she sat straight up. "Wait a minute. Didn't yousay there are three tests? Where is the last test?"

"How can there be a third test? That last one was the ultimate test."

"Oh, alright." Hailey nodded.

"Let's go. Let's take the Emperor Characters and leave.”

eB:

The two walked up to the crystal coffin.

"Thank you, master.”

Darren had promised to treat Yahya as his master, so he bowed towards the crystal coffin.

"Thank you, master.” Hailey bowed to Yahya three times.

Buzz...

The space vibrated, and the lid of the crystal coffin slowly rose. A corpse floated in front of them.Three crystals flew out of the corpse's head and were suspended in the air.

One was red and blue, one was black and white, and the last was gray and white. These were thethree Emperor Characters.

Darren stretched out his hand and took the red and blue one. This crystal was the Fire and WaterEmperor Character.

The Emperor Character melted into his meridians. Instantly, he felt ice and fire running through hisveins.

"Eh? My True Fire Spiritual Body and True Ice Spiritual Body haven't disappeared!"

Darren was surprised. He thought the two bodies would disappear after finishing the test.

The two kinds of holy emperor's power swirled together in Darren's elixir field. If he didn't possessthe two physiques, he would have been killed in an instant.

The two forces melted within Darren's fire and water crystal. He could feel that both his aura andrealm were rising.

"I need to cultivate. Hailey, you should go and take an Emperor Character as well." Darren sat on theground with his legs crossed, concentrating on refining the two powers.

"Yes."

Hailey reached out her hand and plucked out the gray and white Emperor Character.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Suddenly, a strong wind surged throughout the holy emperor's tomb.

The two forces formed a black and white circle in front of Hailey. It looked like the symbol of yin andyang.

The two forces merged and reached a state of balance.

As the Feminine and Masculine Emperor Character melted in Hailey's hand, two kinds of forcesentered her elixir field and transformed the two crystals in her body.

Hoo, hoo, hoo...

Hailey breathed quickly and her beautiful face turned red. After a few seconds, she sat down withher legs crossed and began to cultivate the Feminine and Masculine Force.

After three months

Darren woke up first.

He opened his eyes and they shone brightly.

He waved his hand, and the merged power of water and fire came out. It was both cold and hot thatit seemed to destroy everything that was touched by it.

"Wow! It turns out that the combined power of water and fire is similar to the Destructive Force, butmore powerful!”

After Darren inherited the Fire and Water Emperor Character, his Fire and Water Force was muchstronger than that of the dark gold internal force.

"Now I can use just the Fire and Water Force to kill a half-step emperor. It's a great harvest.” Darrensmiled, feeling very satisfied.

"I wonder if the Shura Force I have gained still remains in my body.”

Darren tried to draw out the Shura Force. To his disappointment, the Shura Force that he hadabsorbed from the Shura's body was no longer there. After all, the rule system of the ancient timeswas different from their current one.

"It doesn't matter, at least the cultivation method I have comprehended is still with me.”

Darren thought about the cultivation method that could transform spiritual energy into Shura Force.Only one drop the spiritual beast king's blood essence was used. There was still some left inside thejade bottle.

With this cultivation method, his Shura Force would improve a lot.

After a few more days, Hailey finally woke up.

However, her face looked ashen. Gray and white marks formed patterns on her delicate face."What? What happened? Is something wrong?" Darren asked immediately.

Hailey shook her head bitterly. “I don't know why, but after refining the Feminine and MasculineForce, I felt someone try to grab me!"

"Grab you?"

"Yes. It was like an invisible hand, grabbing my neck and trying to take me away!"

"How could that be?" Darren asked, confused.

Crack...

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the air and a terrible force rushed out.

"Feminine and Masculine Force!"

Darren could sense the frightening power from within the crack.

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, Hailey was dragged into the crack.

"Darren!" Hailey's screams echoed throughout the holy emperor's tomb. Darren tried to reach forher but the crack had disappeared and so had she.

"Hailey? Hailey!" Darren cried out.

"Don't worry. She's alright,”

a voice said. Darren turned around and saw the Tiger Cat standing behind him.

"But why?" Darren asked.

"My master valued the Feminine and Masculine Force the most when he was alive. Before he died,he had already found the ultimate method for Feminine and Masculine Cultivation. He left thismethod in the Emperor Character, so that his inheritor could practice it."

"I see. I hope she won't be in danger.” Darren nodded.

"What about you? What are you going to do?" the Tiger Cat asked.

"I need to leave. I have a lot of things to do!" Darren answered

"Okay." The Tiger Cat nodded. "Before you leave, could you tell me what happened during thetest?"

Darren didn't say anything. He just transferred his memory of the test to the Tiger Cat.

"How could this be?" The Tiger Cat furrowed his eyebrows.
