The Supreme God of Martial Arts

The precious treasure was just within Austin's reach. He didn't hesitate and immediately dashed toward them at full speed.

The ten radiant jade slips were floating freely in the air. However, once they sensed the presence of a human being, they would swiftly escape to different directions like vigilant rabbits.

Austin had expected this, of course. He also noted the directions to which the colorful jade slips were going, and be prepared for it.

He reached out and grasped one successfully.

After he obtained one, he didn't stop there. He continued to run after them. In no time, Austin obtained five jade slips in his hand.

When Austin was about to grab the sixth one, someone angrily shouted behind him.

"Stop!" The sixth jade slip had slipped away. Austin was disappointed and furious at the stime. He turned around to see who distracted him and saw five cultivators following him on the second floor of the hall.

But before he could even see who they were, five extremely powerful vital energy forces were approaching Austin at an incredible speed.

It turned out that when Austin got to the second floor through the entrance in the hall on the first floor, Bruce, Tolkien, and the three young cultivators at the Sky Realm from Ghost Sect had realized the sthing.

The palace had three floors. The first floor already had so many precious treasures that the cultivators would think that it was the ultimate treasure. They didn't think past the first floor because they were preoccupied with the grade-five and grade-six jade slips.

No one knew what treasures could be on the second and third floor. But one thing was for sure: whatever those treasures were, they were surely more valuable than those on the first floor.

So, when they noticed that Austin moved to the second floor, the five of them stopped pursuing the jade slips and followed him instead.

When they arrived at the second floor, they saw Austin trying to catch the colorful jade slips. Tolkien could not contain his anxiety and jealousy, so he tried to stop Austin by shouting at the latter.

They decided to gang up on Austin for a better chance of defeating him.

The treasures in the second floor were said to cause a commotion among cultivators in Violet Orchid Empire. These treasures could also help people cultivate seventh-grade martial arts skills.

They were so precious and rare that the five cultivators at the Sky Realm were determined to kill Austin.

They joined hands together. Each of the cultivators’ formidable vital energy force combined with one another and formed a giant vital energy force river. They aimed it at Austin. The combined force was so strong and destructive that everything it cacross with vanished instantly. Nothing was left behind after it passed over it.

There was a loud thunderous sound echoing throughout the second floor. Then the room shook fiercely and terribly like it was about to collapse.

Austin felt the strong force coming at him from his back. The force froze his body and made him lose his breath. He felt dehydrated, his face turning red, and the blood seemed to have stopped circulating in his body. He felt like he was dying.

If it was a one-on-one fight against a cultivator at the Sky Realm, Austin would have a great chance of winning. However, the combined forces of five cultivators at the Sky Realm must not be taken lightly.

But Austin was not the type to give up easily. It didn't matter who his opponent was because, in the most crucial situations, his determination to survive would be stronger than ever.

He started to summon all his physical strength out of his body, then his vigorous vitality and blood started circulating in his body.

The dazzling light ball in his elixir field had also stimulated in this crucial moment and the golden vital energy threads sprouted from his limbs and veins. Austin's energy meridian was now filled with strong vital energy motivation.

His physical body combined with fierce vital energy enabled Austin to survive under the joint force of the five strong cultivators.

There was a moment when Austin was almost entirely controlled and subdued.

But he was still able to recover immediately. The moment he had fully regained his motion, he summoned the Wind-commanding Skill to escape from their influence.

Now that he was safe, he concentrated and used his mind to summon twenty Spiritual Sense Flying Needles. Four needles charged towards each of the five Sky Realm cultivators' Soul Sea.

Austin's spiritual sense was strong enough that even the Sky Realm cultivators would not be able to dodge his Spiritual Sense Flying Needles.

Bruce and his companions were surprised by Austin's sudden retaliation. They had to immediately withdraw their spiritual senses to withstand Austin's attack.

In the sudden withdrawal of their spiritual senses, their attack force weakened, and speed reduced.

Despite their weakened force and reduced speed, Austin was still hit by sof their attacks, catching him and pounding him into the ground.

Even though the five Sky Realm cultivators had joined forces to kill Austin, the latter was fortunate enough to dodge 80% of their attacking power. However, the rest of the 20% had hit Austin successfully.

Pufft! Austin tasted blood in his mouth, and then spit out a mouthful of it.

He was sent flying by the strong impact before hitting the ground, so hard that his bones almost felt like cracking.

However, be it God's will or not, he landed exactly in front of the entrance to the third floor.

When he realized where he was, Austin immediately sprang up to his feet and then dashed towards the entrance.

"Heck! What a lucky dog! How can he still be alive?" Graham was surprised at the turn of events and couldn't help but snap.

Austin was merely at the medium stage of Mysterious Realm, but he was still able to dodge their combined attack and suffer only slight injuries.

That was too bizarre of a story that no one would believe it even happened.

Everyone was caught off guard by Austin's power and resistance to their combined force. Though they were eager to destroy him, deep down they admired him.

"Bruce, this son of a bitch is going to the third floor now! We can't let him go that easily! Let's corner him!" Graham proposed to Bruce.

"No! Let's get these jade slips first. They are seventh-grade martial arts manuals.

That boy's cultivation is, after all, at the medium stage of Mysterious Realm. He was just lucky, but he will not be in our next blow! Let him get whatever he can on the third floor, and we will corner him! We will not let him get out of here alive! Once we catch up to him, we will take everything from him. The treasure will eventually be ours," Bruce declared. They all moved to get the jade slips on the second floor.
