Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 976 Dark Tribe's Attack

Darren's words caught everyone in the Primitive Tribe off guard.

In their eyes, their ancestor was equivalent to a god, a symbol of invincibility. How could it bepossible that he had to be wary of a young kid who was a nobody?

Yusuf fumed, his face red in anger. "Come with me! Let's replace him!" he ordered at a dozen or somembers of the tribe.

Darren was speechless at the patriarch's apparent incredulity. He still was not convinced andcontinued to insist on taking revenge against Yahya.

"Patriarch..."

Darren began but was cut off by the patriarch.

"Mr. Chu, what you said may be reasonable, but since the backbone of our tribe was killed, there isno reason to let him go. Furthermore, we've gathered the top fighters of our tribe to test hisstrength. If it's really impossible to defeat him, we can retreat and wait for our ancestor to come out.What do you think?" he calmly said.

Hearing this, Darren breathed out a soft sigh.

"Well, in that case, I'll go with you." Darren knew that he wouldn't be able to dissuade him anymore.The most reasonable thing he thought to do was to just accompany the tribe.

"Well, Mr. Chu, you have incredible strength. In this critical moment, we would gladly accept yourhelp," Yusuf remarked, a soft smile appearing on his face.

Darren, a bit taken aback by the unexpected compliment, gave a small smile in return.

Darren, as well as more than ten strong warriors of the tribe, headed out under the leadership oftheir patriarch.

"Is this the place where Jamie was killed?" After about ten hours of flying, they arrived at a vastlydense forest.

Collapsed towering trees were strewn on the ground. Everything was a mess.

"Yes, that's where Jamie died,” Ray answered.

"Okay, you can go now." Yusuf nodded at him.

"Yes, sir.” Ray then flew back at a fast speed.

Yusuf led the group in searching the premises, but they did not replace any strange aura.

"It seems that he had already left," one of the warriors sighed out.

"Humph! He's lucky that he was able to run fast!" said another man.

"No, I don't think he had gone too far," Darren said, carefully squinting at their surroundings."Why not?" The fighters were all confused

"If he wasn't able to replace the location of the Primitive Tribe, he'd wander around and wait for theopportunity to come upon a member of the tribe and gather information from them, anyinformation that would help him kill me. He wouldn't just leave.” Besides, Darren was in the third"Rivals" test. They were bound to meet again and fight. How could Yahya leave now?

"Well, if that is the case, everyone should carefully explore the surroundings. He might be lurkingaround here somewhere. If anyone replaces him, immediately inform one another,” Yusuf ordered."Yes, Patriarch Yusuf!"

Everyone hastily followed the orders and separated into groups going in different directions. Darrenwent towards one direction alone.

The heart of the forest was dark and faint eerie screams filled the air.

Darren moved forward cautiously. Although he was at the peak of the Grand Realm, his strengthwas nothing special in these ancient times. He was just a little stronger than an ordinary ancienthuman. If he were to meet a strong beast, it was highly likely that he would be attacked and killed.While walking through the forest, Darren suddenly heard a low guttural growl.

Bang!

Without hesitation, Darren hit the unseen creature with his palm.

Bang!

The huge tree behind him was smashed into pieces, but there wasn't any beast or creature.

"There was definitely something approaching me just now."

Darren had felt a dangerous aura just then. But when he turned around, he found nothing."Something must have found me.” Darren grew more cautious

Darren immediately stopped in his tracks and hastily hid inside a tree hole.

It wasn't the best place to hide. But if some beast attacked him directly from behind, it would needto attack the tree first, which would at least give Darren some time to react.

Six hours passed.

Crack. Crack.

Darren heard footsteps approaching.

After a short while, a black creature that resembled a tiger and a leopard walked forward. It wasgiving out a dim light.

"Incredible! You're so alert!"

The one who spoke was not the black beast, but a young man who suddenly appeared behind it."Who are you? Why are you following me?"

Darren couldn't recognize him at all. This young man wasn't Yahya.

"Idiot! Don't you recognize me? I'm a member of the Dark Tribe!" The young man wore a sinistergrin, killing intent evident in his eyes

"I don't know the Dark Tribe, so please don't bother me,” Darren answered as calmly as he could."Well, you are really an idiot, aren't you? Do you really think that we didn't know that the PrimitiveTribe's warriors have gone into this desolate forest? Why do you still pretend that you don't knowabout the Dark Tribe?" the young man taunted, staring disdainfully at Darren.

Darren then realized that the young man of the Dark Tribe came here for the Primitive Tribe.However, Darren didn't show any expression on his face. He said calmly, "Frankly speaking, withyour little strength, even if you do replace the strong warriors of the Primitive Tribe, do you think youcan kill them on your own?"

"Really? Are you a skilled fighter?”

“No, I'm not."

"That's why I want to practice fighting with you!"

The young man and the dark beast took a step towards Darren little by little. Then the young mansaid, "With my grandfather leading the team, none of you can escape from us! You will all be myprey!"

Judging by the aura of the young man in front of him, Darren concluded that his strength wascomparable to that of an inferior holy warrior in the later ages. Not very strong.

Darren was now at the peak of the Grand Realm, plus he had regained his Primitive Fighting Force. Ifhe got into a fight, his chances of losing were extremely slim.

However, Darren was worried that perhaps the young man did not come alone. He was afraid thathe would end up in big trouble if another strong warrior appeared out of nowhere.

"Really? Do you think I'll fall into your trap that easily? You've arranged for people to attack me,haven't you? Shame on you!" Darren callously said, intending to provoke the young man intotalking more.

"Bullshit! I don't need anybody else's help to deal with you! My grandfather has led others todestroy your patriarch. Why would they be interested in you? You're overestimating yourself, idiot,"the young man arrogantly remarked.

Darren triumphantly laughed in his mind. This teenager really was too inexperienced and told himthe important information so easily.

"In that case, go to hell!”

Darren's face suddenly turned grim. He eventually transformed into a shadow and made the firstmove to attack.

"Profound Nine Sword Skills!"

Darren brandished his sword and sword shadows emerged everywhere.

The Profound Nine Sword Skills would not exactly be considered very powerful in his era, but in theancient times, after Darren's further comprehension with the help of his Genuine Domain Degreetalent, it was comparable to a legendary martial skill

Swoosh.

Lights from the sword flickered out and flew in a perfect trajectory towards a visibly panicked youngman,

The young man, who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, was shaking in fear. He wasno match against Darren who had experienced various kinds of dangers and had killed countlessenemies.

The teen was completely surrounded by Darren's sword skills. He was doomed and had nowhere tohide.

"Go to hell!"

Darren transformed into a shadow once again and aimed his sword at the young man's head.

Just as he was about to strike, the black beast beside the young man howled.

It then started to move as quick as lightning.

The black beast was exhibiting power equivalent to an inferior holy warrior's. Darren could sensethat the ferocious beast had experience in fighting, much more than the young man.
