Nobilis of War

Chapter 1220 Getting out

An explosion of sheer force rocked the dark, cold space. The Rule Soul Avatar braced himself as

countless blade shadows flashed and flickered in front of him.

Before he could even realize it, the Blade Devil had turned into a blade and rushed towards him.

The Rule Soul Avatar didn't understand what had happened. The Blade Devil knew that he was a rule

cultivator. There was no way he could inherit his blade cultivation. And yet, why was he doing this?

The Rule Soul Avatar couldn't help but cry out in pain as his body was filled with blade intents. It was

too much for his body to handle.

It was a good thing that he had activated the Resurrection Force beforehand. It was the only thing that

kept him from exploding from the sheer pressure of the blade intents.

Then, a black bead spun erratically in midair. It shot straight into his heart as soon as he felt like his

body was returning to normal.

It was painful at first, but when it burrowed deeper into his heart, he realized that the pain eased off a

bit.

Nonetheless, he still didn't know what the bead was for. This made it even more difficult to understand

the inheritance.

Since he didn't know anything about the black bead, he decided to ignore it for now. He sat on the

ground with his legs crossed and activated his silver eyes. He then observed the law system in the

abyss so that he could properly prepare himself.

Three years passed.

The Rule Soul Avatar had come here to avoid the Immortal Lord. He had no other intentions but to

grow stronger and continue living. Thus, he didn't mind staying in this cave as long as it kept him safe.

He would only venture out when he felt confident he could handle the creatures in the abyss.

However, something unexpected happened in the fourth year of his stay in the cave.

It woke him up in his meditation, and he immediately cast his god's sense out to check out the

commotion. It was then that he saw several skeletal creatures with swords made out of bones in their

hands.

Their eyes twinkled in the darkness as they looked around the cave.

A moment later, they suddenly disappeared, leaving behind a low roar in their wake.

The Rule Soul Avatar immediately stood up upon sensing danger.

And sure enough, a claw appeared out of the darkness and lashed out at him. Fortunately, he was able

to put up a shield to deflect the attack.

He then merged himself into the space to dodge the next attack, and then released his own attacking

law to fend off the other skeletons that came from all directions.

With a loud crack, he was able to smash the skeletons.

There was nothing left but dust from his opponents' bones.

If this had happened a few years ago, the skeletons would have killed him on the spot.

However, he noticed that there was something strange with the skeletons. They didn't show any signs

of having god's power. They only used their speed and strength to attack him.

It seemed like these creatures were the weakest in the abyss. If such lowly creatures already

possessed such strength, he couldn't imagine how powerful the strongest creatures in the abyss could

get.

While he was deep in his own thoughts, his ears picked up some squeaky sounds coming from NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

underground. When he looked down, all the bones were gone.

Immediately, he could sense that something was wrong.

He activated some laws and began setting down defenses around his body.

Then, there was a loud bang.

A bone claw pierced through his defenses and stabbed through his body from behind.

A powerful blade burst out from his body.

It attacked the skeleton creature, shattering it into pieces.

The Rule Soul Avatar looked around and realized that the skeleton creatures weren't exactly dead.

They had only condensed together to transform into a stronger skeleton creature.

He couldn't believe that his own carelessness had almost killed him.

It was at this point when he finally understood the Blade Devil's inheritance. The black bead contained

all the Blade Devil's cultivation, and it would release them automatically to protect him from his enemy's

attacks once he was in danger.

Once the skeleton creature was truly dead, a green smoke curled out of its body and floated up into the

sky.

The Rule Soul Avatar flew up to catch the green smoke, but he failed to grab it on time. In the end, he

had to let it go.

'Soul message, ' he thought to himself.

He surmised that the dead skeleton was probably sending out a message. He knew then that he had to

get out of this place now.

Up until this point, he still didn't know what the skeleton creatures were looking for.

Nonetheless, he turned himself into a shadow and flew out into the dark.

Soon, he had the cave behind.

After flying for a long time, he finally arrived at a place that was very different from where he had

hidden before.

There was a dark, towering mountain that blocked his sight. He tried penetrating it with his god's sense,

but it was futile.

He looked up at the dark sky and saw heavy clouds hovering overhead. Inside it, there was a huge, red

wheel spinning endlessly.

He used his god's sense to probe it, but the wheel simply swallowed it up. In the end, he still didn't

know what it was.

Ignoring the wheel for now, he continued to fly forward. After some time, he realized that the mountains

had no end.

Suddenly, a group of grey birds flew across the sky.

There were so many of them that their bodies almost blocked out the sunlight. They left huge mass of

shadows on the ground, and it almost shrouded the Rule Soul Avatar.

Wanting to avoid trouble, he withdrew his god's sense and held his breath.

"Help me..."

He suddenly picked up a faint voice being carried over by the wind. It was coming from somewhere in

the deep valley.

Under normal circumstance, he tended to ignore such cries for help. After all, he wasn't strictly human.

However, there were some times when Darren's true nature affected him. It was inevitable since he

was still his avatar after all.

But now, he didn't want to get into unnecessary trouble in such an unfamiliar environment, so he

quickly flew away.

Right then, a sudden roar erupted in the air.

The next thing he knew, there were several people blocking his way.

"A human!" one of the figures hissed.

The creature in front of him had green, frog-like skin. His muscles bugled out of his skin as if they were

on the verge of exploding.

Their eyes, too, were huge and round. It popped out of their sockets. Their mouths were like a wide

slash across their face. It looked like a gaping wound. And when they grinned, they showed rows and

rows of sharp teeth. It didn't help that there was also a vile, slimy liquid dribbling out of their mouths.

"Fuck off," the Rule Soul Avatar said coldly.

"Do you really want to save that human girl?" The frog creature stared at him with disdain.

In truth, the Rule Soul Avatar had no intentions of saving anyone at all.

"Hey! This young man is mine!" someone shouted.

Suddenly, the whole valley became restless when a gigantic frog creature that reached over a hundred

feet in height landed in front of the Rule Soul Avatar.

The Rule Soul Avatar couldn't stop his eyebrows from moving up slightly at the frog creature's

entrance. He could already tell that this frog creature was very powerful.

Without looking back, he flew away.

He immediately made his quick escape.

This reaction caught the frog creatures off guard. They had always found humans extremely stupid for

willingly sacrificing their lives to save other human beings.

But this young man was different from the others. He had run away instead.

"Chase him!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Upon the powerful frog creature's orders, the rest ran after the Rule Soul Avatar. It seemed like that

frog creature was their king.
