Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 576 Common Goal

Darren had never expected to see the young man in black armor again here.

Darren looked at the young man. He originally wanted to ask some questions, but he didn't knowwhat to say. His mouth opened only to exhale a small amount of air and rapidly closed it.

He still remembered Scott's fight with that youth in the Fire Cave. The memory was still fresh in hismind. In the end, the young man in black armor had let Scott go. The youth had said that day, "Youowe me one.” Darren still didn't understand what the words meant.

"Help me."

Two strange characters sounded cold and distant in Darren's brain.

Darren had communicated with the young man in this way before, but he could not take theinitiative to say anything.

Since the young man in black armor opened his mouth first, Darren cooperated and decided toreply. "What do you mean by “help me’?

Are you the one who left the forbidden area on the island? I do owe you, but if you want me to helpyou open the forbidden areas of the Holy Lands, then I can't do it. I really can't.” Darren stared atthe young man with unblinking eyes.

At this point, Darren couldn't think of anyone else who had pure bloodline of a fiend and mightystrength at the same time. The only exception was this young man in black armor.

Darren could not help but be secretly surprised that the strength of this young man in black armorwas growing too fast. Back in the Fire Cave, he was only powerful as someone in the Grand Realm.Now, when Darren was as strong as a six-star grand warrior, he had a terrible feeling that the youngman was even stronger than before.

"No."

The stone-faced young man remained cold as usual. When the man stood with tight shut lips,Darren furrowed his brows and stared at the youth for a while.

"I want you to help me stop it." The young man in black armor continued to send words intoDarren's brain.

Darren was still confused, and it showed on his face. Before he could say something, the young manin black armor sent more words to Darren's brain.

"It is transformed by my real body's blood essence. Help me replace it, and I'll kill it."

"It?" Confusion still swam in Darren's mind, and the added words deepened his furrowed brows. 'Ishe saying that the king of the black mutants is not him at all? Darren wondered.

By the looks of it, the black-armored young man wanted to kill the mutant transformed from theblood essence.

Those doubts made Darren's heart heavy. This time, however, he wouldn't let it go. He had to clarifyeverything!

"Tell me where you come from first.” Darren licked his lips as he prepared himself for the answer.The young man in black armor hesitated for a moment before flooding Darren's mind with thenumber of words beyond expectations. Darren's eyes widened at the overwhelming data in hishead.

"My real body was divided into eight parts by the strong human warriors, and my soul was dividedinto three. Two of them were dead, while the last one was hidden in a divine coffin. I am the lastpart of the soul that had been in the coffin, assimilating the spiritual energy. And I gained atransforming skill from the humans. As a result, I was reborn after cultivating for hundreds ofthousands of years.”

Darren froze and stared at the young man with black armor with wide eyes. It turned out that theyoung man in front of him was transformed from the soul of the first fiend ancestor!

No wonder the fiend's blood Darren inherited from him would be incomparably pure.

But why did the young man want to stop the fiend transformed from his real body's blood essencefrom opening the forbidden areas?

Darren turned his focus toward the words again and continued to read it in his brain.

"After hundreds of thousands of years’ evolution, I have my own consciousness, and I'm anindependent being now. Besides, the transforming skill belongs to humans, which is a taboo for myreal body. Its rebirth can occur anytime. If that happens, it might try to absorb my soul tostrengthen its ability.”

After reading these words, Darren almost understood what was going on.

When the fiend's first ancestor died, the soul was divided into three parts, and two of them werecrushed. The young man in black armor in front of Darren was the only survivor, but after a lot ofcultivation, he had developed his own consciousness and was equivalent to a complete individual.In other words, this young man in black armor was a kind of specially transformed soul. He didn'twant to be controlled by his real body again, and he didn't want his real body to be reborn anddevour him.

Therefore, he had to prevent his real body from reviving!

Darren was still in a daze from the information that was poured in his brain when he started to seemore words.

He licked his lips and shifted his attention on it. When Darren had absorbed a lot of his fiendishaura last time, the young man knew that Darren was indeed something. From that moment on, theyoung man had “targeted’ Darren. After careful calculation and consideration, the youth knew thatthis human would be of great help to him in the future.

So, back when Darren had encountered the first crisis of fusion of blade and sword intents, he cameout of nowhere to help him resist the thunder all of a sudden.

Back in the Fire Cave, the young man in black armor learned that Scott was Darren's friend, and thatwas why he had spared Scott in the end.

His purpose was simple. The youth wanted Darren's help at the most critical moment!

Now, the time had come. The young man in black armor needed Darren to replace out the mutanttransformed from the real body's blood essence.

According to the young man, the mutant transformed from the blood essence was very afraid ofhim. When the blood-essence mutant was firstly reborn, the young man in black armor came to thisisland to guard the forbidden area once, but sadly, it ran away.

The blood-essence mutant could fully sense the aura and location of the young man in black armor.In this case, the youth would helplessly go in circles only to give the mutant a way to escape timeand again.

Also, the strength of the blood-essence mutant was only a little inferior to that of the young man inblack armor. So it was almost impossible for the youth to track it down.

When the young man finally found Darren, the youth decided to lay his cards on the table. OnlyDarren could help him replace the whereabouts of the blood-essence mutant. That was his onlypurpose.

Darren pursed his lips. Now Darren finally understood everything.

The appearance of the young man in black armor kindled a spark of hope in Darren's heart.

Darren alone was unable to kill that blood-essence mutant. As long as he could replace the blood-essence mutant, with the help of the young man in black armor, he could stop it from opening theforbidden areas of the eight Holy Lands and releasing the fiend's real body.

At this point, Darren and the young man in black armor had the common goal.

"You are growing very fast.”

After they finished talking, the two of them looked at each other. The young man in black armorpatted Darren's shoulders.

Darren chuckled at that. Wasn't he supposed to say that line? "You too. It also surprises me how fastyou grow." The corner of Darren's lips curled up to form an enigmatic smile.

"I am one of the three parts of the soul. If I were complete, I would have been powerful enough tokill even a human senior holy warrior."

The smile on Darren's face disappeared. He tightened his lips and nodded without saying a word.The youth in black armor was only an aspect of the whole, and he was "weaker" than the fiend's realbody. Darren couldn't even imagine the level of power the original soul would have. It was evenmore terrifying!

"We have a common goal. My friend and I will help you replace and kill the blood-essence mutant.”Darren rubbed his nose and looked at the young man. He felt that he had become a friend of thisyoung man in black armor.

The young man kept his face hard as a stone and nodded. Without saying anything else, the black-armored young man flew away with Darren.

Darren took the young man to the island where Scott was.

"Scott, come out. I have good news!" Darren leaned forward and sent a message to Scott.

A figure dressed in white flashed in front of Darren. Before Darren could even register, he heard anoise.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Unfortunately, the noise was just a start. Darren was about to face something that surprised himeven more.

When Scott showed up, the whole uninhabited island began to shake violently. Even the sea withinhundreds of miles began to surge. Darren struggled to stand up straight.

Two icy auras soared, and Darren's legs started to tremble.

One was the aura of the demonic internal force.

The other was an icy aura of dragon blood.

Darren gritted his teeth and held something beside him for the support. His legs started to feel likejelly only to replace an overwhelming pressure had begun to crawl up his skin. He almost felt likevomiting blood right there.

The pressure remained the same, but light started to emerge that nearly blinded Darren. By the timehe opened his eyes, Scott had directly turned into the cyan dragon. The dragon's cry started tothreaten Darren's ears.

It was the same with the young man in black armor. Shrouded by the terrifying fiendish aura, hiseyes were even colder than anything Darren had seen.

"What... What the hell Scott!" Darren was stunned. He frowned at the sight of a roaring dragon as ifsomeone had threatened to kill him.

"Scott, please stop. He isn't a threat!" When the pressure continued to attack his body like atornado, Darren knew it was useless to talk. He clenched his jaw and flew to Scott right away.

To Darren's surprise, Scott didn't say anything to him at all. He just used the dragon claw to hitDarren and forced him two kilometers back. Darren's eyes were still wide opened when he hit theground and spat a mouthful of blood. He brushed the dust off of his body, and a thought flashed inhis mind. He turned to look at the roaring Scott.

'Oh, damn it. I know what is happening, '

Darren thought to himself. Though he was still surprised, he finally figured out what was going on.
