Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1429 Sealing The Blood Poison

Suddenly, Darren felt a sharp pain coming from his shoulder. In the blink of an eye, he felt asthough countless sharp thorns were pressing into his meridians.

"Poison?"

Darren wondered confusedly.

Before he could act, he realized that half of his body had gone completely numb.

And yet, Darren felt no sense of urgency. Not caring about the poison, he trained his eyes on Elsa,who had been happily lapping up his blood.

Seeing her contented expression, Darren grinned in satisfaction.

"Elsa, if you truly like my blood that much, I'll let you drink from it every day.”

As he spoke, Darren raised his left arm, as though offering it to her. A sword intent flew outimmediately and cut a wound in his wrist. God's power sent the fresh blood straight to Elsa's mouth.Her eyes flashed fiercely as she greedily sucked Darren's blood. This reaction was only natural; afterall, she was partly transformed by the bloodsucker race.

Darren made no move to stop her until he saw that Elsa was content.

"Darren, stop!"

Gilmer exclaimed, suddenly flying over anxiously.

"Don’t worry, Gilmer. Maybe my blood will make her feel better..." Noticing Elsa's contentedexpression, Darren's spirit soared.

"You don't know what you're doing!" Gilmer shot Darren an angry glare. "The reason why Elsa andthe leader of the Blood Cloud Region were not completely transformed by the Defiant BloodsuckerPrince was that they didn't get enough blood nourishment. This hindered their transformationprocess. But now, you're providing blood for her! If she is completely transformed, you will regretit." He wagged his finger at him

Darren's jaw dropped in shock. He had no idea he was doing something so stupid!

"Well, it's not too late to stop what you're doing. More importantly, you'd better suppress thepoison streaming along your veins. I'll send for a master rule cultivator to treat you.” Gilmer paused,his brows furrowing deeply. In a low voice, he added, "The blood poison is very powerful. If treatedtoo late, you'll be paralyzed forever.”

It was no easy feat to rid one's system of the Defiant Bloodsucker Prince's blood poison. Even if onewere to cut off the poisoned part of their body, the new body part that'd grow in its place wouldstill be poisoned.

As soon as the poison took over one's body, the warrior would be paralyzed forever.

With Gilmer's urgent warning, Darren shifted his focus to examining the blood poison making itsway along his body.

As Darren did an internal scan, the blood poison quickly dispersed into countless, infinitesimalcreatures that rushed into Darren's meridians.

Taking action quickly, Darren mobilized his god's power to remove the blood poison. However, itwas futile.

Whenever the god's power came into contact with the blood poison, it would automaticallydissipate.

"What powerful poison!" Darren exclaimed through gritted teeth.

It didn't take long before Darren felt he was losing control of some parts of his body. A numbnessbegan to overtake him.

"Assimilate.”

Before the numbness took over his body completely, Darren quickly activated the Assimilating Forcein a final attempt to remove the blood poison in his meridians.

Then, something strange happened. The blood poison took on a quality of a living creature,dodging the Assimilating Force as though it were conscious!

As the blood poison continued to consume Darren's body, he wracked his brains trying to think of away to overcome it. Even if he condensed a new body, the blood poison would still be there. If hedidn't act fast, he would be paralyzed for good.

This just went to show how powerfully unique the method of the Defiant Bloodsucker Prince was!Fortunately, the blood poison left in Elsa's body was nowhere near as strong as that of the DefiantBloodsucker Prince. Otherwise, Darren would have been dead in minutes.

'lt's damaging my body...

Darren noted calmly.

"Merge!"

Finally, Darren released his Merging Force.

As the Merging Force circulated in his meridians, the blood poison finally met its match. Gradually,the blood poison melted into wisps of blood vitality that wandered aimlessly along Darren'smeridians.

Even though the blood poison had already been turned into blood vitality, Darren's body stillsuffered.

Thus, he mobilized his god's power to herd the blood vitality into his elixir field.

"Seal!"

Darren frowned slightly. There were several God Characters in his elixir field. Now, he had to forcehis blood vitality into one of them in order to suppress it.

After thinking for a while, Darren decided to seal it into the Blade God Character. This wasn't thefirst time he'd dealt with poison. In the past, he had attached itchy poison to his sword intent. HisSword God Character had been infused with the source of itchy poison. If he forced the bloodvitality into it again, he didn't know what to expect.

Deciding not to take the risk, Darren pushed the blood vitality into the Blade God Character with hisgod's power instead. An overwhelming amount of blade intent surrounded it at once.

As soon as the blood vitality was sealed, the suffering ceased, and Darren's body began to recover.This entire process didn't take too long. In fact, it only took Darren around five minutes to suppressthe blood poison.

"Eh?" Gilmer raised an eyebrow in surprise, as he noticed Darren's speedy recovery. "How did youheal so soon?"

He and several elders all eyed Darren. They were just about to summon a rule cultivator to treatDarren, so it had taken them all by surprise that Darren was able to heal himself.

After all, they were all keenly aware of just how formidable the blood poison was.

In the past, an elder at the top level of the Celestial God Realm was once infected with the bloodpoison of the leader of the Blood Cloud Region. Half an hour later, it was declared he was incurable.Even the masters of the Immortal Land couldn't do anything about it.

"Maybe it's because my body is immune to all poisons," Darren said with a nonchalant shrug."That's good, that's good,” Gilmer said, nodding in relief.

He and the others all knew that Defiant Masters’ bodies were special, so they did not ask any morequestions.

"Darren, do you want to stay here with your wife or would you like to rest in the palace?”

Since everything was settled here, he and the others needed to leave. During the absence of theleader of the Blood Cloud Region, as the senior executives, they had other matters to take care of."You may go ahead. I'll stay and cultivate here. I'll go out when Weber comes back," Darren replied."Okay, but remember not to give her any more blood," Gilmer cautioned.

"I know," Darren said, smiling sheepishly. He knew better now. If giving blood to Elsa did more harmthan good, Darren wouldn't dare do it again

When the others left, Darren stood before the cage that imprisoned Elsa. He stared at her, deep inthought.

Ever since he met Elsa, he seldom got to be with her. Regretting this deeply, he felt indebted to herin some way.

In that moment, Darren silently vowed to himself that he must protect Elsa at all costs. Staring at hergrimly, he knew that he was willing to die alongside her, if it came to that.

"Elsa, you will recover soon," he whispered gently. "I'm here. Don't be afraid anymore.

I have been thinking about you all these years..."

He smiled at her reassuringly.

Then, Darren sat down cross-legged on the ground, immersing himself in cultivation. He knew thatas long as he was there, Elsa would feel secure.

Darren checked his cultivation base. He was now at the top level of the Star God Realm, very closeto the Celestial God Realm.

But he knew it wouldn't be easy to reach the next level.

There was a huge gap between the Star God Realm and the Celestial God Realm. However, Darren,at the top level of the Star God Realm, was able to fight against the warriors at the middle-level ofthe Celestial God Realm. Once he reached the next level, his strength would increase greatly.

With Darren's cultivation speed and the effect of the Defiant God Character, he would reach the toplevel of the Celestial God Realm a lot faster than others!

It would probably take one million years for a person with the same talent as Darren to reach thetop level of the Celestial God Realm from the low-level of the Celestial God Realm, whereas forDarren, it would probably only take him a hundred thousand years, or even less.

Of course, this was all hypothetical. For someone as talented as Darren, it was even possible for himto reach the goal in merely tens of thousands of years. It was all a matter of luck and opportunity.Putting all distracting thoughts aside, Darren sank into silence. As he absorbed the godly energy toimprove his cultivation base, he began to practice the fourth move of the supreme sword skill.

This half of the supreme sword skill had a total of six moves. Darren had only mastered three moves,yet the power of his sword intent had already been increased greatly. He couldn't imagine howpowerful he'd become if he successfully mastered all six moves.

What was more, Darren had also been practicing his Blood Thirst skill, which was comparable to hissupreme sword skill. Once he mastered all the moves of the blade formula as both a blade cultivatorand a sword cultivator, he would be peerless!
