Lord Of Martial Arts

Todd's body became whole again after a powerful Resurrection Force gathered around it and condensed it to its former state.

Out of the dark tunnel emerged a figure in white. Then came a young man in purple from behind it.

It was the Rule Soul Avatar and Darren!

They stepped out and stood side by side, seeming strong and hardened by what they had been through. Darren let out a sigh of relief when he looked at the Rule Soul Avatar and said, "I thought you had been killed. How did you manage to escape?"

He sounded relaxed, hiding his sadness that only he knew of.

The Rule Soul Avatar then formed images of what had taken place in his escape and relayed them to Darren's mind.

What Darren saw, was how the Rule Soul Avatar had turned himself into little particles and yet Murray still crushed him together with the space.

However, he had anticipated this using his powerful deduction ability. He reacted by turning his physical body into dots of light. Then, with his soul wrapped in the Resurrection Force, he entered the shattered space.

He knew he was still in danger of dying despite his quick thinking. Once the space collapsed, his soul would dissipate but luckily, he was prepared for this as well.

Thus, just as Murray was about to smash the space, the Rule Soul Avatar activated the Source of Laws and set the tunnel in the dark space turbulent flow, allowing his soul to quietly sneak in and escape.

This was how he had managed to escape that hairy situation. As Darren saw it, it was an incredibly complex process. Somehow it had all happened in less than a second; it took a lot of preparation and fast thinking and decision making. Every step of the plan had to be executed to perfection. It was by no means an easy escape for the Rule Soul Avatar.

A moment ago, Darren himself had almost been crushed, despite the protection of the blood vitality. It was at that critical moment that the Rule Soul Avatar had opened the tunnel and taken Darren and the two Bloodsucker Princes through. Only then were they somewhat safe.

They hid in a narrow crack immediately on arriving at the Source of Laws. The Rule Soul Avatar had not dared show himself. Once the creatures that dwelled there discovered that he had returned, he'd be doomed with no way out.

When he had activated the Source of Law the last time, he had attracted the anger of the chief god

very much, Xavier. I will always remember your help and I am eternally grateful."

The Rule Soul Avatar was aloof by nature, but since Todd was his senior and had died in battle for Darren, he was grateful as well and had much respect for him. Because of this, he responded, "You're welcome, sir. It was my duty, the least I could do. It was the right thing to do."

Darren was overjoyed by what he had just witnessed.

The Rule Soul Avatar had certainly changed quite a bit. He was beginning to understand the ways of the world. Only with this could he be a real creature.

"Sir, my avatar saved Murray as well. What should we do with him?" Darren asked.

Todd was filled with mixed feelings as he looked on at the man floating in front of him.

He and Murray had once been part of the same force, known as the Heavenly Eagle, which Murray had founded. When he first joined the force, he was only at the Celestial God Realm.

But the warriors of the Heavenly Eagle had never despised him for his low cultivation base. They had saved his life in many battles.

Murray, their captain, had cared for him like a brother, rather than a superior leader of the force.

Time flew. Many years had passed.

Those hot-blooded people had long been drowned by the torrent of history, and Todd had become strong, reaching the top level of the Deputy God Realm.

He had never thought he would see Murray again, or that they would have a fierce battle when they were finally reunited.

Todd let out a long sigh of grief and concern. He was in low spirits now, visibly down and very sad.
