Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 840

The white bugs desperately tried to drill into the head of Barnes the Holy as if they were badgers digging up for food.

"Here. Let me help you."

Using his blade and sword intents, Darren walked over to help Barnes the Holy get rid of the bugs.

"Wait! Don't move!" Barnes the Holy stopped him. "For now, they can't get into my head. Just don't provoke them."

"What the hell are these Immortal Assimilating Bugs?" Augustine was frightened when he saw the pale crawling bugs.

"Are you stupid? Like its name, it could naturally assimilate any immortal it came upon, especially one's Immortal Character. They must be attracted to my Fake God Character, which is close to that level. That's why they are riled up and excited." Since Barnes the Holy had an indestructible body, he could easily resist and heal from the bite marks on his head.

After fifteen minutes, all the Immortal Assimilating Bugs scurried over the head of Barnes the Holy.

"Darren, quick! Find the Immortal Character under those broken vats and attract the bugs with it."

Darren immediately rushed to move the broken vats carefully. He found a dark green crystal, which was the solid body of the Immortal Character.

Darren moved the crystal with his spiritual sense and then threw it at Barnes the Holy.

Instantly, the bugs sensed the aura of the Immortal Character and hopped off Barnes the Holy's head.

When Darren moved the Immortal Character, the bugs followed step by step. In just a few moments, he was able to lead them away from Barnes the Holy.

"Phew!" Barnes the Holy was relieved.

"I was wondering why the wine tasted so good. It turned out to be the bugs' aroma that stems from its attempt to assimilate the Immortal Character." Barnes the Holy was shocked.

"You mean to tell me that the crystal is the solid body of someone's real Immortal Character?" Darren asked.

"Yes," Barnes the Holy said. "This is a remnant of the Immortal Character of a dead immortal. Fortunately, if it's aura had not been assimilated by these bugs for tens of millions of years, you would have been killed by the surging rule force of the Immortal Character."

With a serious expression, Barnes the Holy kept his eyes firmly on the Immortal Character covered in bugs.

"Really? Then where did these bugs come from? They could even assimilate the Immortal Character!" Augustine was appalled. He could not believe what he had witnessed.

Barnes the Holy curled up his lips. He pointed one finger upwards and said, "Where else can it come from?

They are from the outer space." Darren understood at once.

"Let's go." Barnes the Holy crept along the wall carefully. When he arrived at the exit, he hurried without looking back.

Darren and Augustine immediately followed him.

"That was intense," Barnes the Holy said and sat on the ground. "I have never encountered someone or, let alone, something that could be a real threat to my life." Barnes the Holy was slightly traumatized. He knew that once he got entangled by the Immortal Assimilating Bugs, he could not escape even if he tried to hide to the ends of the earth.

"Fortunately, there was a remnant Immortal Character there to attract them. If it were not for that crystal, I would have died then and there."

"Barnes the Holy," Augustine suddenly uttered, "the Immortal Character is a precious treasure, isn't it? If I can possess it…"

"Fool! You are daydreaming!"

Barnes the Holy immediately interrupted and smacked the back of Augustine's head. "What are you talking about? You could not have this valuable treasure even if your life depended on it. Besides, even if you acquired it, it would be useless to you.

Every genuine immortal has his or her own way of practicing and understanding the inscriptions of rules. As for this crystal, it would only be useful when it is possessed by a strong living creature with the ability to comprehend its own rules and runes. If not, it would be as valueless as a scrap stone.

I haven't even reached that level yet, let alone you. For you, the Immortal Character is to no avail,"

Barnes the Holy proclaimed.

Let me put it this way. If a creature is able to condense the hexahedral Fake God Character, it would take him tens of thousands of years to hundreds of thousands of years to become a holy emperor.

But if what he condenses is the heptahedral crystal, it would take him ten times longer than that of the amount of time needed to perfect the hexahedral crystal. Moreover, if he condenses the octahedral crystal, it would take him one hundred times longer. You can roughly count the amount. You still want to ask how difficult it is for me to become a holy emperor?"

Barnes the Holy said with a sad face.

Darren squinted his eyes as he tried to calculate. Then, he realized it really was an innumerable figure. Generally speaking, if it took a hundred thousand years for a normal person to become a holy emperor, it would take Barnes the Holy one hundred billion years. Thus, it was almost impossible for him to be holy emperor.

"I don't understand. Why then do you condense such a dodecahedral Fake God Character?"

"You silly boy. It may be difficult to be an emperor, but it does have its advantages. But I am the most gifted person in the world who has the ability to condense a dodecahedral Fake God Character! Once I become a holy emperor, I will be invincible in this world.

I could beat a real immortal into pieces instantaneously,"

Barnes the Holy said proudly.

"It's a paradox. You will never be able to become a holy emperor," Augustine added.

Barnes the Holy jumped over and threw several punches at Augustine. "Brat, even if I don't become a holy emperor, I could still fight against any true immortal because my power will be neck and neck even with the most vigorous holy emperor there is! Humph!" he snorted.

"Awesome!" Darren shouted. He realized how formidable Barnes the Holy was.

"My first priority, however, is to find that bald man who is suppressing me to remain at the basic level of the senior holy warrior. If I don't find him in time, I will never have the chance to regain my full power," the black monkey said indifferently with his legs crossed. He loathed the man who stifled his full potential.

"By the way, is this the guy who's suppressing your power? It had occurred to me that I knew someone who was dressed in a yellow robe. He had no hair on his head, and he looked calm and serene..." Darren elaborated.

Barnes the Holy raised his head and stared at Darren strangely.

All of a sudden, he jumped and grabbed Darren by his collar. "Where did you see him?" he yelled.
