Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 1438 Something Went Wrong

After absorbing Joris' blood, Ryker recovered and returned to his best state.

He then began to transform Elsa immediately.

The transformation process was very painful, but it was completed smoothly.

Elsa and Connor were successfully transformed simultaneously.

"Great! Elsa and Connor are now saved. Darren, it's time to kill Ryker."

Ryker, who was lying and trembling on the ground, abruptly sat up.

"Human, what did you just say?"

"Stupid! Don't you still understand?” Gilmer sneered.

Ryker was lost in thought all of a sudden. After recalling everything that had happened, he finallyunderstood. Since Elsa and Connor were not yet fully transformed, they used him to return themback into their human forms.

"You humans are despicable! You are brutal!" Ryker felt so desperate. After going through so muchpain, he didn't expect that he would just die in the end.

"Stop shouting! No matter what you say, you will still die for sure.”

"No! I don't want to die.” Ryker was so frightened. He immediately knelt down and pleaded, "DearConflicting Chief God, I'm willing to be your believer. Just please spare my life.”

But Darren ignored him. Lord Feng released a purple golden god's power, which turned into a longspear and pierced through his chest. Blood flowed out from his chest, and his soul dissipated.Eventually, he died.

Darren turned around and stared at Elsa nervously.

She was still in the cage. Her blood-red skin was now dry. The bat wings on her back suddenlyturned into withered branches and became deathly gray.

Elsa screamed in pain, waving her hands randomly.

"Elsa, just hold on. You'll be fine soon,” Darren comforted her.

On the other side, Connor had the same reaction. He was also in so much pain.

It lasted for about two hours. Darren was so anxious that he was drenched in sweat. Elsa still did notfully recover.

She suddenly looked very old as she lay motionless in the cage.

"What is happening?"

Seeing Elsa's current state, Darren immediately summoned Carthy and Joris.

"Carthy, what's going on with Elsa?" Darren asked through clenched teeth. He now looked ferocious.Carthy knelt down and took a look. He then turned to Darren and said, "Master, I don't know either.She should have already regained her human form.”

Fright and confusion were written all over Carthy's face.

"You're such an ignorant human ant. Do you really think that you can save them this way?" Jorissnorted, giving Darren a disdainful look.

Whoosh!

Darren rushed over, grabbed Joris’ neck, and roared, "Tell me, what's wrong with her?"

Joris didn't show any fear at all. He shook off Darren's hand violently and said coldly, "It seems thatthis human is very important to you. I know the solution, but you can rest assured that I will nevertell you. I would rather die and let you suffer. Ha-ha!"

Joris didn’t care about his life anymore. He was just happy to see Darren looking so miserable.

"Do you think that death is the most painful thing?" Darkness flashed across Darren's eyes as hespoke.

"You can do whatever you want,” Joris sneered.

Whoosh!

A sword intent added with an itchy poison swept across Joris.

In an instant, many cracks appeared on his skin. But unfortunately, Darren's itchy poison was notstrong enough to poison him.

His itchy poison could only have an adverse effect on creatures below the Superior God Realm."Damn it!" Darren got so furious. Since the itchy poison didn't work, there was nothing else he coulddo to make Joris yield.

"The blood poison!"

Darren suddenly remembered that he had compressed the blood poison in his Blade God Character.The blood poison came from the Defiant Bloodsucker Prince. It was also what had made Rykersuffer. Perhaps the mixed itchy poison and blood poison could invade Joris’ blood.

With this thought, he unleashed his blade intent and sword intent at the same time.

The blood poison was attached to the blade intent while the itchy poison was attached to the swordintent. He then released the two poisons into Joris’ wound.

Joris trembled. He felt that something was wrong, and his blood began to boil all over his body."You... Why do you have the blood poison of the Defiant Bloodsucker Prince?"

Obviously, Joris was shocked. His meridians were attacked and the blood poison spread through hisbody. Although it was very powerful, he could still tolerate it.

However, while the blood poison was spreading all over his body, another poison quickly attackedhis meridians.

Because of the blood poison, the itchy poison worked perfectly this time. It was a kind of poisonthat was really terrible.

Joris’ whole body convulsed and rolled on the ground.

"Human, what did you do to me?"

Joris roared. He was in great pain.

When he saw that the mixed poisons were effective, Darren released the blade intent and swordintent continuously and stabbed Joris’ bone marrow.

"Ahhh!"

The itchiness that he felt from his meridians and marrow made Joris want to die. This kind of torturewas more terrifying and unbearable than being in the dark abyss.

He hated himself so much now for coming here. He regretted that he listened to Carthy.

Death was indeed a better thing. If he died, he wouldn't feel the painful itchiness anymore.

Two hours had quickly passed.

Joris did his best to keep his head clear. But after another half hour, he started begging for mercy."Master... please let me... die now.”

His blood and tears dyed the ground bright red.

"Choose now. Are you going to surrender or suffer forever?” Darren said in a deep voice. He had tomake Joris his believer. Otherwise, Joris wouldn't tell him the solution to Elsa's situation.

Joris was in extreme pain, but he still didn't want to surrender.

"Well... since you are really tough, Lord Feng, please help me pull out his soul,” Darren said as heturned around

Without saying a word, Lord Feng grabbed Joris’ soul with his bare hand. He was able to pull outhalf of it

Whoosh!

The itchy poison and the blood poison attacked Joris’ soul.

"Alas!"

Joris sighed faintly and stopped moving.

When the itchy poison penetrated his soul, the pain was indescribable.

He thought that nothing was more painful in this world than a soul being tortured by the itchypoison and the blood poison together.

"My dear... Conflicting Chief God... I... Joris..."

As soon as Joris finished his words, Darren received the Power of Belief.

Finally, a Bloodsucker Prince had become his believer. A stream of black god's power surged out ofthe dark void in his mind and ran into his elixir field.

In an instant, the power of the black god's power increased immensely.

But Darren was not in the mood to explore the growth of his strength at this moment. All he caredabout was Elsa's full recovery.

His problem now was how to remove the itchy poison from Joris’ soul.

The itchy poison could be eliminated once his soul was dissipated. After that, his soul had tocondense again. But if his soul vanished, none of them had the ability to condense it to save him.Joris was equivalent to a human warrior at Deputy God Realm. Only rule cultivators who were atleast deputy gods could heal his soul.

"Lord Starry Sword, do you know any rule cultivator who is a deputy god? If you do, can you invitehim here to heal Joris?"

Much to Darren's dismay, Lord Starry Sword shook his head.

He only knew one rule cultivator, who was a deputy god. It was Morton, the old man who hadwanted to kill Darren in the Archean relic.

But since Morton and Darren had a grudge between them, it was impossible for Morton to helpDarren.

Fear surged up in Darren's heart when he saw that the bodies of Elsa and the leader of the BloodCloud Region were getting more and more withered. He was afraid that they couldn't be healed ifthey didn't take action soon enough.

"Master, let my father absorb Ryker's blood. Maybe in this way, he will recover,” Carthy said as helooked at Ryker's dead body.

Ryker's blood was still gushing out even though he had been dead for quite a while now.
