Chapter 1296 The Token (1/2)

Murphy shook his head dismissively.

”Help? You won't be able to solve this problem unless you manage to get someone at the top level of the Celestial God Realm to help you.” He didn't think that Darren could easily invite such a powerful cultivator. Besides, Maxwell must have already arranged spies around the area to prevent any members of their sect from escaping. Darren would only be caught red-handed if he went out, unless he snuck out through the secret passage.

”I have a friend in mind who is quite the cultivator. If I can bring him here, I think this crisis could be resolved.”

Darren was not sure if he could successfully invite Akbar over, because the latter had already said in the past that he couldn't leave the swamp. Despite this, given the critical circumstances, even if Akbar couldn't come in person, his input could definitely help Darren figure the situation out. This possible win-win situation weighed greatly on Darren's mind.

”You're really friends with someone who is at the top level of the Celestial God Realm?” asked Murphy, surprised.

”Yes, his name is Akbar, but he's often called Lord Akbar,” said Darren.

”What?” Murphy couldn't believe his ears. Could the name he heard just now really be the one he knew of?

”Darren, do you really know Lord Akbar?” asked Murphy in disbelief.

”Of course I know him. Why else would I tell you I'm going to ask him for help?” said Darren with a soft chuckle.

”Well then that's amazing! If you can manage to bring him here, perhaps even the senior leaders of the Blood Abyss Sect wouldn't dare lay a finger on us! But are you sure the Lord Akbar you know is the one who cultivates the natural law?”

Murphy's doubt was reasonable. After all, Akbar had been very famous in the beginning and then suddenly disappeared without a trace. Murphy suspected that Darren might have mistaken someone else for Akbar.

”Yes, I'm pretty sure. Master Murphy, I'd say your tone sounds like you know Akbar quite well. Is this correct?” Darren couldn't quite understand Murphy's excitement upon hearing Akbar's name.

”Ha-ha, that's for sure. Many years ago, Akbar was very well known in the world. Many people even believed that he could be on par with Lord Starry Sword in the future. Unfortunately, while he was at the peak of his fame, he seemed to have offended a great master in seclusion and then he just disappeared.

Since then, many people supposed that he had been killed by that same great master in seclusion. Hence, his legend was only known by the people in our era. Very few people of the later generations heard about him,” explained Murphy.

”Wow, I didn't expect that guy to be so powerful.” Darren was impressed an

ion and took Darren to his cottage in a flash.
