Chapter 1089 The Identity Of The Old Man

Although Darren was in the Virtual Battle Space, his ability to quickly improve his skills to their peak level made it a piece of cake for him to deal with the Shura.

"Guardian, please set the Shura as a destroyer," Darren said.

"Even with the sped up time flow, I would still need a month to execute that request," the guardian replied.

"Okay. He won't be able to make much trouble in a month.

Wait a second!" Darren suddenly realized that he had established a Shura Contract with the Shura. This meant he could not attack him.

Even if he was currently in the Virtual Battle Space, he would still be suppressed by law.

"Shoot. What do I do now?" Darren scratched his head in frustration. He was at a loss.

By this moment, the Shura had already flown far away.

"Lad, please help me." A faint voice called for help. Darren used his spiritual sense and detected the old man.

"Essence! I want the essence!"

The remaining three phantoms were thrown into a dire frenzy when they spotted the old man.

"What?" Hearing the shouts of the three phantoms, Darren frowned and asked, "What essence are you talking about?"

Before they could answer, Darren's eyes grew as everything began to make sense.

"So, he's the World Essence!" Darren suddenly understood.

He imagined the World Essence was something similar to a crystal. He was looking for something huge, at least. It never crossed his mind that the World Essence was actually a living creature!

Witnessing the three destroyers driven to a nearly insane state was enough proof for Darren!

"What luck!" Darren couldn't care less about the Shura anymore. He rushed to the elder and helped him up.

"Thank the heavens you're here!" The old man patted his chest in relief.

"There's nothing to fear. I'll get you out of here."

Now that Darren had found the World Essence, his top priority was transferring the old man to a safe place. This was the most important thing on his mind at the moment!

"Guardian, I need to leave immediately!" Darren shouted.

"Absolutely not! You must kill all the destroyers in order to leave! An early departure is against the rules!"

When anyone reached the Virtual Battle Space, he or

s, I will be replaced by a new guardian for violating the rules. If during this period of time, you fail to kill all the destroyers, your strength will return to the starting point; your soul will become vulnerable to the destroyers."

If the guardian changed the rules, so as to let Darren succeed, he would definitely disappear. Once this happened, right when the new guardian was formed, Darren's strength obtained from sped-up time flow would also disappear.

The limit of this process was two hours, so the guardian required Darren to kill the remaining three destroyers as quickly as possible.

"Leave it to me. I'll do my best," said Darren confidently; his head held up high.

"Prepare yourself, then. I will help you to speed up the time. Remember, you've only got two hours."

"That's enough time! If the time flow is sped up to a million times, then I guess that's about two million hours." Darren was merely cultivating his skills he already possessed, not creating new skills. It wouldn't cost him too much time.

With a crackle of electricity, a burst of colorful lights flashed by Darren. It was the sense of time. The time flow was beginning to speed up.

Darren immediately sank into the cultivation. He began with his blade and sword. As time wore on, his level and strength continuously increased.

Two hours flew by. As Darren's eyes fluttered open, he gasped from what he saw up in the sky. A nasty spider web of deep cracks had appeared!
