The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Just as Austin was about to activate his bodily movement skill, the mine began shaking violently.

The mine trembled fiercely as if an earthquake with a strong magnitude struck the place.

Swoosh! An immense aura of danger approached Austin from behind. He felt it surging towards him.

He unleashed his spiritual sense to check what was behind him but found nothing. It frightened him a little bit to realize that

spiritual sense did not work in the mines. He had no choice but to look back and check it out himself. As he turned around, he was

taken aback by the swirling dense black mist that was approaching him at a terrifyingly fast speed.

"Everybody, run! Quickly! The black mist is coming again!" he shouted at the miners in front of him. They had been stumbling

along the mine out of sheer fear.

Austin used his bodily movement skill and reached them in a flash. He used his vital energy force as he secretly gave them a

boost. The miners had no chance to escape on their own.

A huge wave of power surged and pushed the miners towards the entrance of the mine. They all felt the propelling force that drove

them to get out faster.

In the next second, they found themselves just a few meters away from the entrance of the mine.

Austin did not get them out directly because he did not want the three elders of the Rudimentary Holy Land to get suspicious. After

all, he was now pretending to be an ordinary miner who knew nothing about martial art skills just like the miners around him.

"Run! Faster! The black mist is coming again!"

Several hundred miners got out of the mine and ran away from it in pure terror. Everyone was panicking as they rushed to a safer

place.

Unfortunately, sof them were not able to get out quickly. Almost a dozen miners were left behind. Soon enough, the black mist

gained in on them and devoured them quickly.

"Aaaaargh! Help! Please, help us!" the miners screamed desperately.

Within a second, they all turned into a pool of blood. The rusty stench of the blood diffused in the air immediately.

Upon hearing their shrill cries and screams, the other miners sped up in different directions. They all sprinted to save their lives.

Austin pretended to be as scared as the other miners and dashed forward with them. He did that to blend with the miners so that

the elders would not spot him among the crowd.

At the sight of the chaos, the three elders, seven stewards, and a few hundred principal disciples from the Rudimentary Holy Land

activated their bodily movement skills to flee from that mine.

As they sensed the tremendous power radiating from the black mist, they all hurried to distance themselves away from it as much

as they could. Even the three elders wanted to evade it.

When they were far enough from that mine, they all paused and scanned around. "All of you, cover here," an elder of the

Rudimentary Holy Land called to the mine workers.

As he waved his sleeve, all the workers who had been in the mine with Austin were dragged towards him. An invisible power

tugged all of them in an instant.

"Tellwhat happened under the mine. Tellevery bit of it and leave nothing behind," the elder demanded with a glum

expression.

He gazed intently at the miners in front of him as he waited for them to respond.

What he initially thought as a valuable mine ended up killing a lot of his workers. Instead of finding sprecious crystals, what

welcomed them was a dangerous threat. No wonder he was upset.

Most of the workers were still in shock as they stared blankly at the elder. Sof them were too scared of speaking up, so they

kept their mouths shut. After a few seconds of dead silence, several articulate miners mustered up scourage and volunteered

to explain everything to him. They stepped forward and reported what they had seen to the elder.

"What? You saw creatures sealed in the special ruling crystal mine?"

The three elders and the seven stewards of the Rudimentary Holy Land furrowed their eyebrows immediately as they heard the

miners explain.

"We even met such an ominous thing.

It seems like we did find a perilous mine," one of the three elders from the Rudimentary Holy Land said with a frown.

The three of them exchanged glances at one another. Shock was evident in their eyes.

They all thought carefully about the situation. Nobody made a move as they quietly analyzed what they had to do next. A few

moments later, one of the elders broke the dead silence.

""But you know what? | once heard from Elder Jared that sremarkably strong ancient creatures were somehow locked up in the

crystals. Sof them are even still alive.

If we can manage to bring these ancient creatures back and dissect them, we might be able to have more discoveries.

Perhaps, we can even get spowerful weapons or magic treasures from them," he said excitedly. He could not hide the thrill he

felt as he thought of the discoveries and treasures that they might take advantage of.

"You have a good point.

Maybe this perilous mine is just a challenge for us. Perhaps, it could also be a good thing for us," another elder followed.

The three elders cheered up, as the hope blossomed in their chests. There was a keen look in their eyes as they thought of the

great things that they could get from this unfortunate situation.

The elders talked freely without any concern in front of the miners. Since they were just low-born common people who did not learn

martial arts skills, the three elders paid no attention to them. They posed no threat to their plans.

What they did not know was that someone among the crowd was listening intently to their conversation. Austin heard them

clearly, and what they said thrilled him.

'So those creatures sealed in the crystals lived during the ancient times, ' he thought to himself.
