Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 542 Reaching The Premium Stage (Part Two)

"Where on earth are the time turbulent flows?" Darren asked Anna again, shifting his gaze towardsthe lady who kept her silence after being ignored.

"You're really an idiot. After I've told you so much about the possible dangers of facing the devil, Ican't believe you still choose to leave and take risks. Okay, then I will show you the location of thetime turbulent flows, and you check it by yourself,” Anna said in a huff. Unable to wrap her head athow hard-headed Darren was, Anna just rolled her eyes at him while shaking her head in disbelief.After which, she threw upon him a sheepskin map bearing the location of the time turbulent flows.And then, Darren took the map, studied it for a few minutes and without saying a word, flew away.He didn't even bother to look back and express his gratitude to Anna, which made the latter evenmore annoyed.

After two days of flight, meeting the weird air, and changing weather, Darren landed on a cold andsecluded area.

The space in that area where he landed was precarious. Horrible black cracks could be seeneverywhere. Those cracks were called the space cracks and were scattered all over the place. Darrenwas familiar with such cracks. He knew very well that, once anyone was sucked into the space cracks,it would be hard for him to survive.

Among these space cracks, Darren also saw numerous colorful clouds, which seemed to be verydistorted and were continually changing shapes. According to the mark on the map, such an areashould be the place where the time turbulent flows were located.

However, the function of those time turbulent flows in the area was not merely to slow down time.Some of them could accelerate time, as well. It was possible that when a warrior spent more thantwo months inside the time turbulent flows, one year had passed in the outside world. Thus, Darrenknew he should make careful choices before he jumped into any of the time turbulent flows.

With his keen eyes, Darren observed each flow. After quite a few hours, he finally chose a cloud oflight, also the time turbulent flow he wanted to jump in. He ducked the space cracks around andthen flew inside the light.

Pretty soon, Darren was overwhelmed by a kind of strange feeling. There seemed to be a clear traceof time and tide in the cloud of light, which was an indescribable feeling for him.

“This is a time flow that will slow down the time by three times, which means that after I have beenpracticing here for three years, only one year had passed in the outside world, Darren thoughthappily for he had chosen a right one.

On this third floor, the best time turbulent flow was the one that could slow down time by fivetimes, but it was not bad for him to replace such one that could slow down time thrice as slower.Though the excitement enveloped him, Darren forced himself to stop thinking about anything elseand started with his cultivation. With that, he simply took out a picture he got from Anna, whichdescribed the method of cultivating premium sword intents. To be more specific, this pictureillustrated six sword skills, which were similar to but more complicated than those skills portrayedon the Black Cliff of Sword Intent.

Holding the pictures on his hand, Darren oversaw them, tried to have more insights about them andlearned from such ideas.

With his current talent at the Heaven Degree, he realized that having a complete understanding ofsuch a sword intent method would not be dangerous for him, but it would not be easy as well.Swish!

With his new learnings waiting to be put into practice, Darren brandished his sword fast once.

"No, the trajectory of such a stroke looks similar to the one illustrated on the cliff, but theirmomentum are quite far different,” Darren commented at once, determined to execute the skillcorrectly.

Swish! Swish! Swish...

As sweats started to bubble upon his forehead, Darren kept brandishing his sword to perfect hissword skills. He was confident that only by practicing in that way could he truly have a completeunderstanding of the sword intent.

Darren did a million brandishing of the sword; thousands of buckets of sweats were shed; callousedhands and firmer muscles had been developed. The young warrior was so immersed in thecultivation of the sword skills that he completely forgot the time that was passing by so swiftly.Before he could realize it, almost a year had gone by.

On the last day before a year ended, Anna flew to the place where Darren was staying and waitedfor him to get out of one of the time turbulent flows.

“This brat has been cultivating here for a year. I guess he doesn't make much progress, and the nextthing 1 know he will follow my suggestion and stay on the third floor." Anna's mind was racing as hereyes shifted from one time turbulent flow to another.

At the depths of her heart, she never believed that within such a short time, Darren's strength wouldbe greatly improved.

"Hum?" she muttered in disbelief all of a sudden when she sensed a powerful aura.

After a short time of observation, she noticed that a time turbulent flow was starting to trembleviolently and was actually exuding strong sword intents.

"What a strong sword intent! Did he make such huge progress? How could he?" Anna couldn't helpbut wonder. The lady's eyes even grew wide when she detected that the sword intent aura from thecloud of light was even stronger than hers

"This brat is really amazing. In a few years, he actually succeeded in the cultivation of the premiumsword intent. What kind of talent was he bestowed?" Anna grumbled and wondered. Her mood wasquite complicated at that very moment. Not in her wildest imagination, she thought that Darrencould achieve such powerful intent in a short time. Even she couldn't have such an achievementwithin three years. With her talent at the second level of the Heaven Degree together with thecoaching of her master, she still used eight years to reach the early stage of the premium swordintent. Therefore, she found it quite hard to accept such a confounding fact.

'Humph! It will be useless even though you made that achievement. You still can't beat the devil, *Anna comforted herself in her mind. Her pessimism grew at the fact that Darren had now outdoneher skills. Suddenly, while she was amid her self-reverie, she felt another strong and eye-poppingaura that burst out. Such strapping aura made her lose her balance and rattled her mind for a while."What? The aura of the premium blade intent... It's impossible. I didn't give him the method tocultivate the premium blade intent!" Anna denied spontaneously. At the most straightforwardthought of it, Anna was in dire dubiousness. She just imagined that Darren had somehow improvedhis cultivation base, but what she was sensing right now was more than she had expected. In herdesperation and rejection of the truth that Darren had advanced his sword and blade intentsmassively, Anna was on the verge of losing her sanity in an outmost quandary. Yet, the factremained that Darren succeeded. The young and determined warrior made it—he had advanced tothe premium stage.
