Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 486 Carey Was Dead (Part One)

As he was preparing himself to face Carey again, Darren transformed back into Kaleb's appearance.Together with Horace, he walked towards the secret chamber with swift and steady steps,determined not to make an early announcement of his arrival to Carey. On their way, they cameacross some Restriction Arrays, but Horace dealt with them smoothly and efficiently.

Soon enough, they were on Carey's secret chamber, after one of a hidden rule-powered dooropened. Darren walked in first.

Adjusting his sight, he glanced around the room. As his visions get accustomed to the place, hisgaze fell on Carey, who was on the far corner of the chamber.

In his hands, he was holding two keys. The young master was silently thinking about how to get theother key in the box with a deep frown on his face. All of a sudden, he felt an odd presence as ifsomeone was coming towards him. As the presence drew near, he immediately turned his head tosee who the intruder was.

"Huh? How did you come in here?" a hoarse and raspy voice came out of his mouth as Carey asked.His heart skipped a beat when he saw Kaleb, and it was as if a ghost was standing in front of him.Seeing the man that he presumed to be dead, the young master couldn't help but have a horriblefeeling.

"I'm here to help you get the key, young master," offering to lend a helping hand, Darren answeredcalmly. A faint yet mocking smile was portrayed on his face.

"How dare you! I am commanding you, get out of here. Leave right now!" with his trembling handpointing at the door, Carey shouted at Darren. Secretly he was wondering what might happen andwhy Elder Hugh hadn't killed Kaleb. Why didn't he do it? Did something happen, and Kaleb killedElder Hugh instead?

A ton of questions were on his mind. Yet, in the meantime, he was secretly sending a message andsummoning Elder Hugh to make sure everything was alright.

But much to his disappointment, Elder Hugh didn't heed to his call. Worst was, there was no trace ofhis existence, and it made Carey feel anxious and worried. He was starting to panic right now.Caught at such an awkward situation, Carey soon realized that it was not the right time to getcrossed with Darren.

"Well, Kaleb, pardon me. I was just too anxious just now. I'm only worried about the keys. I didn'tmean to shout at you. Haha, come here, Kaleb. Help me with this, will you?" While he was motioningDarren to come closer, Carey immediately put on a fake smile. He was pretending to be friendlywith Darren. But secretly, he was cursing Darren for ruining his plan.

"All right. Hand me the keys, young master," acting to offer a helping hand, Darren demanded as hestretched out his hand for the keys.

"Okay. Take a look at these keys and tell me what you replace.” Carey nodded his head, pretending as ifhe agreed to Darren. Unknown to Darren, he was getting his rule power ready, waiting for the righttiming to assault Darren. The moment Darren grabbed hold of the keys, Carey launched the attack.Rumble!

To his dismay, however, before Carey could pull his strength to attack, Darren used his sword toattack him first. Powerful ice sword intent brutally pierced at Carey.

All this time, Carey didn't expect that Kaleb would dare to attack him, his young master. It seemedthat things had gone wrong without him noticing. “Since when did Kaleb know how to use a sword?*Carey asked himself in confusion. Something was definitely wrong.

"Die!" But Carey would not let himself be defeated that easily. He immediately put up a sturdydefensive wall to resist Darren's attack. After resisting Darren's sword intent, Carey launched a greendragon made of runes at Darren in a counter-attack.

"Master, let me kill him for you.” Horace, who was still hiding in the dark, sent a secret message toDarren, his master.

"Don't. I want to test for how long I can resist his attack,” while he was facing Carey's attack, Darrenreplied secretly. He wanted to challenge Carey and test his strength.

"All right. But I will help you as soon as you are in danger,” understanding Darren's rejection, Horacesaid and assured him instead. His goal was to protect his master with all his might.

Seeing that Carey's powerful rule attack was coming after him, Darren immediately used theHurricane Teleportation Skill to dodge the attack. At the same time, while he was teleporting, hedivided himself into nine avatars. He made use of his dark gold internal force to fight Carey."Infinite Defense Skill!" The instant he saw the attack, Carey didn't feel good about it. Thus, indefense, he immediately used the skill that could protect him the best. At the same time, he usedcountless runes to continuously attack around himself because he wasn't sure where Darren was.Bang! Bang! Bang!

Simultaneously, Darren's avatars appeared one after the other, but they were all barred by Carey'sInfinite Defense Skill. The avatars couldn't even get near Carey at all, let alone hurting him.

The defensive skill of a rule cultivator was indeed a potent and invincible one. It was even strongerthan the body of a three-star grand warrior. It was sheer luck for Carey to be a rule cultivator andpractice rule power skills; otherwise, he would never have the capability to fight a three-star grandwarrior.

"Haha, you are a rubbish martial artist! You will die today!"

While cursing Darren, Carey sneered. With a ferocious evil grin on his face, he used his true ruleprototype momentarily.

With the release of the skill, countless dry claws with horrible and frightening powers appearedaround Darren all of a sudden. Each of them was powerful, and they all targeted Darren's avatars.Bang! Bang! Bang!

In a split second, a few of Darren's avatars were shattered by the dry claws and disappeared intothin air like early morning dew.

"Air-integrated True Rule!” The corners of Darren's lips lifted into a cold smirk. Frustrated at the lossof his avatars, he directly used the prototype form of true rule and camouflaged in the air so Careycouldn't replace him

"What? Where is he?"

Realized that Darren was nowhere to be found, Carey felt shocked and panicked that he suddenlycouldn't feel Darren's presence. The fact that he had an invisible opponent right now made him feeleven more anxious.

In fact, Carey, whose Spirit Power was at level twenty-six, could still faintly feel Darren's existencejust now when he used the Hurricane Teleportation Skill. But now, it was like that Darren completelydisappeared. He couldn't feel his presence at all, no matter how hard he tried.

“Basic true rule! That bastard can also use the basic true rule!" The look on Carey's face immediatelychanged. Especially now that he realized he couldn't underestimate Darren's powers and skills. Allthis time, Carey thought that Darren was just an ordinary martial artist not capable of doingsomething extraordinary. Yet, now, the young master realized that Darren was even more potent.
