Lord Of Martial Arts

Everything had been part of Braxton's and Alfredo's plans.

"Why did they choose me? Me of all people..." murmured Darren with a frown.

A supreme god and a peerless Defiant Master had both chosen him and left their most powerful and prized artifacts to him.

Why had they done that? To what end? No one knew the answer to that.

"Darren, he is coming." The Rule Soul Avatar could sense that the man from the Immortal Land with silvery eyes was already very close to the cemetery.

"Let's get the passage open."

Darren activated his three God Characters, while the Rule Soul Avatar activated his silvery eyes, carefully opening the passage to the Source of Laws.

They appeared before Supreme God Braxton's tomb. Both space and time were distorted here.

In front of Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar, appeared a dark passage, too dark to see what lay on the other side of it.

"Let's go!"

They both flew into the passage, not wasting any time.

The immense pressure in the passage made Darren feel as though he was about to explode.

But with the Rule Soul Avatar's support, he recovered a little and was able to continue on.

The two of them quickly passed through the black distorted space. A long while later they finally landed on some solid ground.

"This is the Gottron Abyss," the Rule Soul Avatar announced as they both swiveled their heads around, taking it all in.

This dark world was a large mass of black ridges, with a freezing wind whipping and piercing into them like icicles on their skin. It was empty for the most part, but there seemed to be countless undead creatures crying off in the distance, their voices lingering in Darren's ears.

Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar eventually lost their sense of direction in this strange and gloomy world.

The abyss was too vast. How were they to know where to start their search?

"By the way, how did you manage to persuade Aunt Yolanda to allow me to go into the abyss? Is it anything to do with my tribulation when I break through to the Superior God Realm?" asked Darren curiously.

"Yes, I figured that if you break through in the abyss, it will reduce the impact of the tribulation on the human race to a minimum," answered the Rule Soul Avatar.

"Really? How do you mean?" Darren asked, not entirely understanding how that would work.

"This abyss is the hometown of a chief god, and has thus been guarded by his divine spirit. If you are to rise to the Superior God Realm here, the other chief gods would take issue with the chief god whose hometown this is. Those are the same chief gods who want to find out everything about the human race through you. So, with their

roar, all the devils rose into the air and flew off in one direction, like a swarm of locusts.

"Follow them."

Darren flew behind the devils, hidden by the Rule Soul Avatar.

They flew for two weeks.

It was only then that the tens of thousands of devils finally came to a stop.

The area they had landed was a vast expanse. Because of the pervading purple mist, Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar could not probe too far ahead. But they were able to make some things out with their naked eyes. They spotted some huge skeletons as big as stars scattered in the area.

"Wow! That's one big guy!"

Dozens of kilometers ahead of them was a gargantuan skeleton that stood as high as ten million feet.

The purple devils landed on the ground and moved forward in an orderly fashion.

They followed them all the way until they finally came to their destination.

In front of them, stood a sea of blood with two huge islands nestled in the center of it. This was what Darren and the Rule Soul Avatar saw at first glance.

However, when they used their god's sense, they could see clearly and discovered that there were bodies of two giant creatures lying in the blood. The sea of blood was most likely the blood that had flowed from the corpses of the giant creatures.

What Darren saw had shocked him into disbelief.

"What are they doing?" Darren asked, keeping his attention on the purple devils.

"Move them quickly. Or those guys will come!" commanded a one hundred feet tall purple devil.

The ordinary purple devils all rushed over to the two large corpses, cutting the dead giant beast with their sharp claws.

They then carried back huge pieces of beast meat.

"Turns out they're just ants stealing food," Darren murmured, surprised and disappointed.
