Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1434 Another Breakthrough

As a Bloodsucker Prince, even if he were to confront death, then he should die in a dignified way,trading blows with a worthy adversary.

Naturally, the Bloodsucker Prince felt his pride defiled at the hands of the powerful human when hesaw he had sent a nobody of the Celestial God Realm to lay waste to him.

"Perish, you weakling!"

With the recent humiliation churning his anger, the Bloodsucker Prince roared, taking a fierce swipeat Darren with his bloody claw.

Watching him close in on him so quickly made Darren's heart skip a beat!

The swiftness of it all shocked him enough to remain frozen in place. Before the bloody claw couldeven make contact with Darren's body, he felt his internal organs eviscerate.

It all happened so fast that Darren didn't even get a chance to activate his god's power, much lessmove. The next moment, the bloody claw had landed on top of Darren's head, attempting to breakhis skull in half.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a black and white sword intent swooped in above Darren's head and foiled the attack,protecting him.

Unable to register anything, Darren stood in place, baffled. He realized the gap between his and hisopponent's abilities was far too great. If Lord Starry Sword hadn't intervened, he would have beenreduced to a fountain of blood mist.

"What!?"

Surprised, the Bloodsucker Prince staggered back a few steps to steady his footing.

"Don’t just stand there. Make your move!" Agitated, Lord Starry Sword scolded Darren back to hissenses.

"Right, okay! I'll give it my all!"

Preparing himself to fight, Darren used the fifth move of the supreme sword skill coupled with hisviolent surging sword intent to unleash a formidable attack.

Carefully reading his movements, the Bloodsucker Prince flapped his broken wings, manifestinghimself into a bloody line and swerved away from Darren's attack, effortlessly.

"Darren, watch your back!" Observing the battle from afar, Gilmer fiddled with his hands, worriedout of his wits for Darren. The movements of the bloody line were so fast that even he was unableto keep track of it with his eyes.

As a countermeasure for the opponent's untraceable speed, Darren surrounded himself withhundreds of blade shadows to act as a curtain.

Bang!

Suddenly, the blade shadows collided with some obstruction and were reduced to pieces, andDarren was sent flying from the impact.

After Darren was knocked back, the Bloodsucker Prince appeared in the spot where Darren oncestood with his blade shadows.

Heaving heavy breaths, the Bloodsucker Prince stood supporting his left shoulder, an inch longwound carved on his skin from Darren's blades, blood dripping profusely.

"Heh, not bad. Darren is something else!" Watching Darren hold his own against the powerfulBloodsucker Prince made Lord Feng's eyes lit up, beaming with pride. It was indeed a praiseworthyachievement to break the defense of the Bloodsucker Prince when Darren's cultivation level wasonly at the Celestial God Realm.

"How did he pull that off?" Gilmer exclaimed with surprise. Despite being at the low-level of theSuperior God level, he was unsuccessful in reading the Bloodsucker Prince's movements. And on theother hand, Darren managed to inflict an injury on him, which was incredible.

The Bloodsucker Prince stood glaring at Darren's figure, clutching his greatest humiliationmasquerading as the cut carved by Darren on his shoulder.

Flying backward to add in some distance between himself and his foe, Darren smirked, satisfied.

In fact, what Darren was happy about was not that he had injured the Bloodsucker Prince, but thathis cultivation level was improving.

Because at that moment, the Bloodsucker Prince hated Darren to the extreme. Under the effect ofthe Defiant God Character, his cultivation level kept on rising.

"Alright, then. Let's do this one more time!"

Darren made the first move and propelled himself forward, incorporating all his strength in thisattack.

The powerful blade intent and sword intent, the black god's power, the dark gold god's power...But what Darren believed to be an irrevocable strike was easily foiled by the Bloodsucker Princebefore it could even so much as graze him.

"Die, you worthless dime-a-dozen human!”

The Bloodsucker Prince's body flashed before Darren's eyes before it disappeared again. By the timehe revealed himself, he had morphed into ten phantoms circling around Darren, surrounding him.Like moths to a flame, all ten phantoms rushed in to attack Darren all at once.

Trying to dodge their collective strike, Darren ducked away, but his opponent's speed surpassed hisby leaps and bounds. Before he could remove himself from their scope, the blood vitality caught upand struck him.

But all was not lost. If push came to shove, Darren had the hope tucked away in his heart that LordStarry Sword and Lord Feng would intervene and extract him from the jaws of death.

Since there was no window for escape, Darren decided to confront them and fight back. FiveSpiritual Flying Swords sprung out and flew towards one of the phantoms at the same time.

At this moment, Darren felt a sharp sting of pain sprout from his body, paralyzing him.

Bang!

His legs were bombarded by the blood vitality, rendering him immobilized.

"Oh, no!"

Darren's eyes trembled in fear, eyeing his injured self. He was sure Lord Starry Sword would haveswooped in to protect him. However, he didn't. Fortunately, Darren didn't depend entirely onsomeone else to come to his aid and tried his best to dodge, or else he would have kicked thebucket at that attack.

However, Darren wasn't the only one on the receiving end. The Bloodsucker Prince stood at the farend, blood dribbling down his arm. One of the five Spiritual Flying Swords managed to piercethrough his skin, wounding him.

So, Darren had inflicted another injury upon the Bloodsucker Prince.

By then, the Bloodsucker Prince had turned into a soulless husk controlled by his impulses, slowlylosing control from his rage out of his growing hatred for Darren.

Meanwhile, a steady stream of unusual power ran its course through Darren's meridians, turninginto the source for the improvement of his cultivation level.

Boom! Boom!

Just then, in the void, a newly formed waterfall dribbled down vertically. It was the incarnation ofgodly energy.

"What's this?"

Gilmer's eyes fell on the spectacle, slowly widening in surprise. Wasn't this a sign of promotion?Darren had just broken through to the Celestial God Realm! Now was his realm on the brink ofanother breakthrough?

Gilmer wasn't the only one rendered speechless. Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng also watched withtheir mouths agape, shocked. How could Darren manage to reach a breakthrough twiceconsecutively within an hour?

"Alright! This feels so good!”

Darren roared, adrenaline rushing through his veins. As the godly energy poured into his body andfamiliarized itself with it, his injured legs healed, erasing all signs of the previous wounds. Because ofthe improvement of his realm, his abilities in all aspects also grew exponentially.

As a result, Darren felt his fibers surging with electrifying power.

"The sixth move of the supreme sword skill,”

Darren murmured, a voice only audible to himself. At his words, a divine sword manifested itselfbetween his brows.

Previously, he had only witnessed the sixth move of the supreme sword skill in action but neverexecuted it himself.

Overwhelmed by his quick achievement, Darren suddenly came up with a bold tactic. He wanted tocomprehend the sixth move directly without any former practice in combat.

Wielding the divine sword firmly in his hand, he let the sword between his brows merge with it.

"Is this skill at the supreme grade?"

Confused, Lord Starry Sword squinted his eyes, peering in to get a closer view. It was not until thenthat he realized that Darren had been using a cultivation method of the supreme grade.

Why was he doing so?

The reason was quite simple. When Darren used the sixth move of the supreme sword skill, ittriggered a change of the highest caliber. It was a worthwhile change indeed.

Only by comprehending the first six moves of the half scroll of the supreme sword skill could heattain basic knowledge of it. This basic knowledge provided him with unconditional access tosupreme martial arts.

Brandishing the divine sword, Darren swiftly flashed to the side of the Bloodsucker Prince, swipingat him.

That strike might have seemed plain, but it was packed with impeccable and incomprehensiblestrength.

“Fuck!”

Pushed off the edge of his sanity, the Bloodsucker Prince let out a frustrated shriek. His tworemaining bloody wings detached themselves from his body and dashed towards Darren with anintent to kill

The Bloodsucker Prince pulling such a move meant Darren had stepped over his last nerve, and hewas now forced to resort to desperate methods.

Remaining calm, Darren closed his eyes shut to focus, manipulating the sword's movements in hisheart.

In the blink of an eye, he had traded blows with the broken wings thousands of times.

Every time they struck each other, a piece of space would bear the brunt of the intensity andcollapse.

Witnessing this battle of two great strengths clashing against each other, Gilmer was left utterlydumbfounded. What the hell was going on?

Darren was at the middle-level of the Celestial God Realm, but Gilmer felt the faint aura of asupreme god from him. He could not express what he was sensing. The feeling was beyond thelimitation of words.

"Good Darren, very good.” Lord Feng watched with his eyes sparkling with gratification, like a fatherproud of his son.

"Starry Sword, at this rate, it seems it won't take long before he reaches the Superior God Realm.What do you plan on doing after?" Lord Feng asked, suddenly sounding serious.

Remaining nonchalant, Lord Starry Sword kept his stiff expression, but this time, he didn't brushaside Lord Feng's words. "Whatever you plan on doing.”

"Heh. It's settled then. Even if I have to raze the heaven and the earth to the ground, I'd gladly do itif it means to protect Darren!" Lord Feng declared with a wave of his sleeve.

In their eyes, the battle between Darren and the Bloodsucker Prince had reached a stalemate. Afterputting one of the broken wings out of commission, Darren retreated, having received fatal injuriesof his own.

But this battle was enough to go down in the history of the human race.

"Gilmer, I think Darren has weakened him enough. You should step in and support Darren to kill thatguy off." Lord Feng released a streak of god's power to treat Darren's wounds before turning toGilmer.

"About time! I've been looking forward to having my warm-up with that guy.”

Nodding to Lord Feng, Gilmer stepped in at Darren's side, violent god's power surging throughevery fiber of his being.

Now with Gilmer at his beck and call and his wounds healed, Darren rushed to attack the alreadyfeeble Bloodsucker Prince with renewed vigor.

The battle only lasted for an hour. The Bloodsucker Prince was left brutally dismembered by bothDarren and Gilmer. In the end, he was reduced to a fountain of blood mist as it gushed out of hisdetached limbs and later absorbed by the remaining Bloodsucker Princes.

"We cannot die like this! If we are to fall in this battle, it will stain our reputation, and we will besubjected to eternal disgrace! Joris, please call the ancestor to aid us."

Realizing the tide of the battle had shifted in their enemy's favor, the remaining three BloodsuckerPrinces were determined to use their last resort.
