Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 251 The Blade And Sword Array (Part Two)

"Why don't we just get this over with? Less talk, more action!" Darren countered smoothly.

He then disappeared and within the blink of an eye, he reappeared right behind the man. But thatwas not the only trick he had up his sleeve. Upon revealing himself, Darren also released hisstrongest blade and sword intents. It was no less a surprise attack towards the unprepared youngman,

"What the..." the young man cried out in shock.

Not only had Darren's sudden disappearance caught him off guard, but the sensation of thestronger blow of the blade and sword intents had surprised him as well. Contrary to all hisexpectations, Darren's blade and sword intents level was apparently higher than his own.

"It is impossible. I saw clearly that you are in the beginning of premium blade and sword intent.How the hell did you increase your strength to such a high level within a few minutes?" hewondered aloud. As Darren's blade and sword intents reached him, the young man struggled toblock them with his blade and sword arms.

"You will never know my secret!” Darren proclaimed, not offering an explanation. And then onceagain, he transformed into a black shadow and rushed towards the man.

The truth was Darren's blade and sword intents used to be no match for that of this world. That alsoexplained why he felt so much pressure and oppression in dealing with the young man's blade andsword array in the beginning

But now, after he had sacrificed all his phantoms and finally defeated the young man's blade andsword array, his own blade and sword intents had increased to such a great extent in a short periodof time. He now had the ability to win against the young man. The fight became more and moreinteresting as the scales began tipping to Darren's favor. It was now the young man's turn to feelsuppressed under the attack of Darren's blade and sword intents.

However, the man could not bring himself to admit his inferiority as his pride didn't allow him to."Well, I admit that I underestimated you, but you are still going to die!" the man shouted as hefloated upwards, his long and thick hair whipping around his face. He opened his mouth and yelledout a battle cry.

"Legendary martial skill: Wind Chasing Sword!"

Upon activating his legendary sword skill, the man continued to release his blade skill. "Legendarymartial skill: Silver Lunar Blade!" he added and began striking towards Darren with a much strongerforce.

Both the blade and sword skills were released to their highest states. The effect of the combinedstrikes was comparable to a devastating tornado, which was evidently much more terrifying than theprevious blade and sword array.

Noting that his successful barrage of attacks had managed to effectively weaken Darren andsuppress his power, the young man started to relax and act little cocky. "You don't know that onecan overcome the suppression of the blade and sword intents with the help of the outstandingmartial skills, do you? I am teaching you a good lesson today," he gloated, looking all smug. Darrenpaid no heed to his provocation and continued to strike back at him. As compared to the situationback then, the legendary martial skill had impressively replenished the disadvantageous feature ofthe blade and sword intents. The wind of the fight once again started to blow towards the youngman. The situation was starting to become a little negative for Darren.

Looking at how hard Darren was trying to deal with his blade and sword intents that had just beenpropelled by his legendary martial skills, the young man’s morale was boosted even more. "I have tosay, you are indeed a genius. You not only destroyed my blade and sword array and threatened me,but you also impressed me by upgrading your level in such a short time. I cannot think of a secondperson who has this ability. If you had lived in my time, you were destined to be a true superiortalent,” the young man complimented.

He then began moving towards Darren, preparing to give Darren a final blow to end the fight onceand for all

Darren knew that the young man had a point in some respects as the legendary martial skills he haddemonstrated truly amplified the strength of the blade and sword intents. He admitted that itcaused him more pressure than ever. But this was not the time to falter. Noting that this was thecritical moment that would define whether he lived or not, he regained his composure and tried toturn the tables around.

"Regardless of the blade and sword intents, I am wondering what will happen if your legendarymartial skill gets confronted by my talent skill?" Darren said, his eyes meeting the young man's.

He then activated his skill and released hundreds of phantoms that looked exactly like him. Heordered them to strike the young man with all their might.

"Seriously? You know what happened to the last phantoms you fought my blade and sword arraywith, right? If my blade and sword array can eliminate them rather easily, what makes you think theystand a chance against my legendary martial skill?" the young man taunted sarcastically. It seemedto him as if Darren was doing it in vain and the skill was the only superior skill that Darren couldthink of. From the previous fight, he had the impression that the strengths of those phantoms wereon par with his blade and sword array, which meant they were nothing near his legendary martialskills considering the array was just one of his ordinary skills.

"I know they were all extinguished while destroying your array. But who knows? I have other tricks Ican play with that skill. Would you like to see them?" Darren had the nerve to laugh as he set hisskills in motion.

Hundreds of phantoms reappeared again and stood behind him like a group of well-trained,disciplined army that waited for their commander's order. Darren then closed his eyes and began totake the skill up to a higher level. Shortly after that, the phantoms began to collide with each other,two phantoms gradually merging into one big phantom. This doubled the strength of eachphantom.

This wasn't all, though.

With a racket of clattering and roaring sounds, all of the phantoms began crowding towards Darren,building him into a ginormous supernatural being.

Noting that his skill had reached its most powerful state, Darren began to move towards the youngman. By this time, he had gotten tremendously huge that as he moved, cracks in the sky appearedand the entire atmosphere vibrated. It was as if a deadly earthquake had struck, tearing the wholeland mercilessly.

All this time, the young man watched with his mouth agape in wonder. Never in his wildestimagination had he ever thought that there existed a person who could have the ability to combineall his phantoms together and create such a gigantic, otherworldly strong creature, and yet there hewas. As powerful as he was, his legendary martial skill now looked completely useless in the face ofsuch an enormous Darren. The giant was at least a hundred times bigger than what he used to be.Although the young man released all his legendary martial skills without reservations, they did notbring him any luck. Darren just waved them away with one hand and then struck the young manusing his blade and sword intents.

It was a solid combination of blade and sword intents and hundreds of phantoms. No matter howone looked at it, there was just simply no way the young man could stand up to such a mighty blow.In a split second, he was smashed into a thousand pieces. Blood spattered everywhere, but eventhat didn't last long as traces of him disintegrated into thin air.

Outside Ancient Void Battlefield, the battlefield guardian was paying close attention to their fight.Now that the fight had ended with Darren's victory, he finally sighed with relief.

From the beginning, when he found out that the defender of the ninth space was the man withblade and sword arms, he thought that there was no hope of breaking through that space.

But now, Darren's excellent performance and impressive victory brought him vigor and greatappreciation. He would have cried out in excitement if he wasn't a spiritual intent at the moment.

It was said that till now, only about twenty people from hundreds of thousands of fighters had beenable to break through the ninth space of the Ancient Void Battlefield and got into the tenth space. Itwas with great joy that he realized Darren was now one of them.

The previous people who had the ability to break through the ninth space were either fighters withthe power of grand warriors, or someone who had the prominent defensive object to protecthimself while marching forward.

Unlike them, Darren neither had an outstanding skill nor had proper protective equipment. He evenstarted his fight facing the huge oppression from the ninth space defender's blade and sword array.But no matter how hard it was, he succeeded. He made it through using his wits, perseverance, andwill power.

"He is indeed a potential genius. I never thought this day would come, but now I have hope... andI'm placing it in his hands," the Ancient Void Battlefield guardian said with a smile. As Darren stillhad other tests to go through, the guardian spent one last moment appreciating the miracle thatjust happened and then continued watching Darren's journey with bated breath.
