Lord Of Martial Arts

The Rule Soul Avatar didn't say much. Instead, he transmitted a spiritual message to Darren's brain, which contained his previous experiences.

Meanwhile, Darren sent a message to the Rule Soul Avatar so that he knew what had happened.

Both frowned when they processed the events that the other had experienced.

"I'm trapped in the abyss, and you are stuck in the tomb. There's no way out for either of us," the Rule Soul Avatar stated.

"Yes, I thought I could force my way out, but it turned out to be wishful thinking!" Darren shook his head.

Now that the passage ended in the abyss, his soul was unable to return to his body.

On the other hand, the Rule Soul Avatar couldn't cross the abyss since the other end of the passage was a supreme god's tomb.

"Hey, Darren! You haven't told me what's going on!" Jenifer interrupted when she saw the strange expression on both their faces.

"This is my real body."

"This is my avatar!"

The Rule Soul Avatar and Darren answered in unison.

"Oh, I see. Then, there's a problem. What shall I call you?" Jenifer glanced at the Rule Soul Avatar and questioned.

"Anything you like," the Rule Soul Avatar said with a smile.

"If both of you are present at the same time, how can I tell one from the other?" Jenifer asked helplessly.

"How about this? You can call me Darren and address my avatar as Xavier. What do you think, avatar?" Darren suggested.

"I can live with that," the Rule Soul Avatar replied with a nod.

He didn't object as Xavier was another name for Darren. Besides, it would only be used to distinguish Darren from his avatar.

"Okay," Jenifer said. Since she had known the Rule Soul Avatar for a while now and had grown accustomed to calling him "Darren", she thought it would be a little weird to call him Xavier. But, she didn't mind as he was still the same person.

"You're extraordinary. Not only do you have limitless potential, but your avatar is the same. What a surprise!"

After a long silence, the bloody body finally started to speak.

The Rule Soul Avatar scrutinized it with his silvery eyes.

A moment later, with a frown, he withdrew from his examination of the bloody body.

"Who are you?" the Rule Soul Avatar asked in his typical indifferent tone.

"I am Sheffield."

The Rule Soul Avatar's expression remained cold. Jenifer, however, was so shocked that her mouth was agape.

"Oh, my! Are you a supr

tionalized. Darren was not a fool. Even mortals forged beneficial relationships, not to mention the gods in the Primitive Wilderness.

"You are smart. I like you. Allow me to clarify. I was to recruit you because I'm preparing to fight and return to the land of the Primitive Wilderness," Yama explained as he fixed his gaze on Darren.

"Oh? I'd like to hear more." Darren's curiosity was aroused.

"Do you know of a force called Hades Prefecture?" asked Yama.

"Yes, I've heard of it." Darren had read a scroll where the names of the nine regions and ten prefectures were listed, and he remembered them even though much time had passed.

"Let me make a long story short. My prefecture was located elsewhere before, but Hades Prefecture banished us to this abyss. My plan is simple. I want to lead my followers out of the abyss and destroy the Hades Prefecture," Yama went on.

"Oh, I see. But I'm not sure that we can help you. You are aware that both my avatar and I are not strong enough in cultivation." Darren refused with a shake of his head.

"I can wait. I've spent over a million years waiting for the right opportunity to avenge myself. I don't care if I have to wait another million years. Besides, you will be stronger by then," Yama added.

"A lot can happen in a million years. You might even find other talents that are superior to me. Besides, look at us now. We're trapped in this cave connecting the supreme god's tomb and the abyss. Even if we wish to help you, we can't as we're unable to break free. So, forget about us," Darren said bluntly.

His words rendered Yama speechless.
