Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1254 Needs To Be Honed

Darren felt helpless.

While he was in the soul state, he couldn't use his bloodline or elixir field. This meant he couldn'timprove his strength using regular cultivation.

It would have been different if he was a rule cultivator. As long as his soul kept getting stronger andhe could comprehend the universal laws, his strength would improve.

The Blood Witcher Ancestor didn't say a word. It seemed like he didn't know how to solve theproblem, either.

"Alas." Finally, he shook his head and said, "If that's the case, there's only one way left. I'll let LordStarry Sword know and ask him to take you away.”

"How will he do that?" Darren asked, confused.

"Since his strength is closer to that of a deputy god, he isn't afraid of those two powerful creatures.He can get you out of the tomb directly.”

"Wow! He's indeed very powerfull” Upon hearing how strong Lord Starry Sword was, he felt hisheart skip a beat. No wonder everyone in the Primitive Wilderness was afraid of him.

Nonetheless, he couldn't stamp down the worry that gripped him. Would Lord Starry Sword reallyget him out?

"I guess he might not take me away," Darren said.

"It's not up to him to decide. I'll inform the Ancestral Land directly, so just wait patiently," the BloodWitcher Ancestor comforted.

"Well, everything depends on you now."

Meanwhile, in the Cliff of Ten Thousand Souls in the abyss

Silver eyes flashed like flickering lights. The Rule Soul Avatar seized every moment to comprehendthe universal laws.

A boy with black eyes and a dull expression on his face sat beside him. He didn't dare disturb theRule Soul Avatar during his cultivation

Suddenly, the Rule Soul Avatar sensed someone enter the cave.

He took a deep breath and pulled himself out of his silver eyes state.

"What brings you here?"

"Seven hundred years have already passed. I came here to check on the son of Supreme GodBraxton. I also came here to see you." It was Jenifer.

Time moved differently inside the abyss compared to that in the outside world. Hence, the Rule SoulAvatar had been cultivating for seven hundred years without his notice.

"He has a name. It's Donovan.” He had given this name to the boy. In fact, this boy reminded him ofanother boy he knew.

"That's not a bad name." Jenifer smiled.

"I'll be leaving for a while. Please take care of him for me until I come back,” the Rule Soul Avatarsaid.

"What? What are you going to do? Why not continue cultivating here?" Jenifer was surprised tohear this.

"I have to break through the bottleneck,” the Rule Soul Avatar replied coldly.

Jenifer's eyes widened even more. "You're planning to move up to the Celestial God Realm?”

The Rule Soul Avatar nodded his head in admission.

When Jenifer heard the confirmation, her heart almost dropped. When he first started out, "Darren"was already at the top level of the Star God Realm. In seven hundred years, he was about to reachthe Celestial God Realm! It was unbelievable!

She remembered how she spent over two million years conquering many restrictions to get to theCelestial God Realm. And she only achieved it through her father's help.

Yet here “Darren” was. It only took him seven hundred years to achieve it. This was indeed anunimaginable feat. Perhaps only Supreme God Braxton could do the same thing.

"I can't believe that there's actually a genius like you that exists in this world. You're trulyincomparable.”

The Rule Soul Avatar remained silent at that. Eventually, he stood up and headed out of the cave."Hey, you can't leave just like that.” Jenifer called after him.

"Why not?" the Rule Soul Avatar asked lightly.

"Because it's dangerous outside. And once you leave this place, this cave won't belong to youanymore. You'll have to fight the next time you want the cave back.”

"That's alright.” It was obvious that the Rule Soul Avatar was determined to go. He had beenpracticing for hundreds of years already, and he had been stuck in the bottleneck for over ten years.He had to get through it somehow. He had been thinking about this for a long time, and he hadfinally reached a conclusion. The laws he had learned had to be honed through actual combats. Thiswas the only way to advance to the higher levels. Once he did that, he could move on to theCelestial God Realm.

To do that, he had to leave.

"No! You can't leave! Humph!" She shook her head obstinately.

The Rule Soul Avatar frowned at her reaction. He couldn't understand why she was so adamantabout this.

But it didn't matter what she said. Nobody could change his mind.

He activated his rule power and let a gust of strong wind blow under his feet. It carried him over tothe entrance of the cave.

"You!"

Jenifer stomped her foot in frustration as she followed him out.

"If you really want to leave, then I'll go with you.” She landed beside the Rule Soul Avatar.

"No. You wait here and take care of Donovan for me until I get back." As he spoke, the Rule SoulAvatar looked out into the distance. His black hair fluttered behind him as the wind blew.

"You're so unreasonable, you know that? I refuse to do as you say. Either you stay here or you bringme and Donovan with you.”

The Rule Soul Avatar glanced briefly at Jenifer. His face seemed indifferent, but he couldn't help butwonder why she was being so stubborn.

"I'll take your silence as a yes."

With that, she flew back inside the cave to bring Donovan out with her.

“Let's go."

"I don't think taking him with us is a good idea," the Rule Soul Avatar said.

"This is our only choice for now. I won't stay here alone, anyway." Jenifer remained obstinate withher decision.

Without saying anything else, the Rule Soul Avatar began to walk away.

Jenifer followed with Donovan in tow. There was a triumphant look on her face as she walked

As soon as they exited the cave, the guard in black robes appeared and stopped the Rule SoulAvatar.

"Are you taking him away?"

"Ask her. I'm not the one who wants to bring him along.” The Rule Soul Avatar tipped his headtowards Jenifer.

She, in turn, stared at him before saying, "Sir, he's the one who keeps insisting we leave.”

Her heart had rose up to her throat in anxiety. She had a feeling that this guard wouldn't let hertake Donovan with them

"Go back right now, or I will have you beheaded.” The warning was cold and serious. The guard'skilling intent was rising out of him as he said this.

The Rule Soul Avatar's eyes flickered. The killing intent was too difficult to resist.

"Why?"

"The reason doesn't matter. I'll give you ten seconds to go back to your cave, or I won't showmercy." Fear gripped Jenifer's heart as she stared at the guard's cold expression.

Under normal circumstances, the senior leaders of the Cliff wouldn't stop anyone who wished toleave.

But why was this guard stopping them? Jenifer couldn't figure it out.

"Please don't be angry, sir." Swallowing back her fear, she continued, "I'll stay here and take care ofDonovan. Just let this man go. He needs to go out and get a breakthrough.”

This dilemma had left her no choice. She wouldn't let her selfishness get in the way of the Rule SoulAvatar's growth.

"No, he can't go either.”

Unexpectedly, the guard was also refusing the Rule Soul Avatar to leave even though Jenifer alreadyoffered to stay there with Donovan.

"I don't think that's how the rules work, sir,” she grumbled. Indeed, it was against the rules to forceanyone to stay there.

Suddenly, a black palm shadow came down directly on Jenifer's face.

The entire area shuddered at the impact, and it left her stunned.

At that moment, she felt she was dying.

But before it could even land on her, the black palm shadow stopped. It hovered inches from herface.

She was too scared to utter a single word. Her face was white as paper.

The Rule Soul Avatar glared at the guard. Fury brewed up inside him, but he had to hold it back. Theguard was much stronger than him.
