The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin was a habitual cultivator, to the point of being considered an addict. Once he fell into a state of cultivation, he would be a little crazy and neglect other things. It was his personality.

Tessa watched as Austin refined all the ghost souls in the soul-consuming fog one after the other. In the beginning, it surprised her that Austin could refine the souls. After a while, she beccalm and eventually she was so used to it. She felt that it was nothing to be marveled about at how much Austin had consumed.

Austin's excellent performance in many situations had surprised her so many times since they met that gradually, Tessa cto recognize that he was a talented young man and it was just normal for him to do what others could not do.

The girl in purple robes who at the beginning complained incessantly gradually stopped complaining and calmed down. After observing Austin who was always tirelessly cultivating for a period of time, it suddenly dawned on her why Austin, a boy who was also about her age, was much more superior in strength as compared to her strength.

When he had refined the souls in a dozen of grey fogs, Austin's spiritual sense covered a distance of 4, 000 meters within the weird city! Suddenly, Austin realized that something like tiny drops of water sometimes appeared in his Soul Sea and they were suspended and scattered in every corner and they were unrecognizable.

If the cultivation had not enhanced his ability to sense his Soul Sea, he would not have found the tiny, unnoticeable water-like drops.

'What are these?" he wondered.

Austin was confused as he examined the water-like droplet in his Soul Sea carefully with his spiritual sense.

Then suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. He remembered sof the information about a kind of spiritual sense change that Angus told him and it was very similar to the kind of change that was happening to his Soul Sea.

When a cultivator's spiritual sense increased to a certain degree, his spiritual sense would start to liquefy.

The change was called Spiritual Sense Liquefaction, and it happened when the spiritual sense was powerful enough and had reached its breakthrough point. At the end of the change, the spiritual sense would condense into liquid and exist within the Soul Sea in the liquid state.

Originally before a warrior reached the liquefy stage, the spiritual sense was an invisible and intangible force which could only be perceived by one's mind.

But once the spiritual sense was turned into a liquid, the seemingly invisible force bectangible and could be touched.

Generally, a cultivator's spiritual sense would begin to liquefy only when he had reached the Astral Realm! Besides, Angus once told him that only a few cultivators’ spiritual sense could reach the degree of Spiritual Sense Liquefaction.

Even if one reached the Astral Realm, his spiritual sense might still not be strong enough to activate the change.

'So this means that my spiritual sense level has reached the level of powerful masters of the Astral Realm!" Austin was overjoyed.

However, he realized that his spiritual sense had not really reached the level of Spiritual Sense Liquefaction, but it just had the tendency to liquefy.

That was because the newly developed drops of spiritual sense in his Soul Sea were too tiny to be called a liquid. They were at a very infantile stage.

It was only when the tiny, unnoticeable drops of spiritual sense beclarger and integrated together, could they be seen with naked eyes and they would be able to becreal spiritual sense liquid.

By that time, if he released the spiritual sense from his Soul Sea, he would be able to see it with his naked eyes and they would even be felt and touched just as real objects.

In other words, after the liquefaction process was finished, Austin's spiritual sense would be stronger than most masters of the Astral Realm! At the moment, Austin's cultivation base was just at the premium stage of Sky Realm. There were other realms such as the Imperial Realm and the Master Realm between the Sky Realm and the Astral Realm. That would mean Austin's spiritual sense was about to skip two realms Since he had traveled through tand space from the Earth to the PrMartial World, Austin had infused the two souls, his original soul of the Earth and the one from the PrMartial World where he now lived in, and realized that he had developed a higher aptitude of cultivating spiritual sense.

'I should seize this chance to make my spiritual sense liquefy as quickly as possible!" he thought.

But he didn't know how many soul-consuming fogs were left in this city and whether or not they would suffice to support him to finish the liquefaction process.

Without any break, he stood up immediately and continued looking for another soul-consuming fog.

Just then, ten men in black robes suddenly appeared in his spiritual sense range. Each of them radiated a sharp and dangerous aura. They were all at the premium stage of Imperial Realm! The city guardians! Austin immediately guessed the identities of the ten men in black robes and frowned slightly.

He then sensed that they were divided into two groups and they were following his trail as they searched towards his direction.

It seemed that the three castellans of the city had launched a search for the four of them.

If he fought a cultivator at the premium stage of Imperial Realm, Austin knew that he had higher odds of winning. But there were ten city guardians who were each at the premium stage of Imperial Realm; it would be hard to defeat all of them.

Austin hesitated for a while and then he decided to hide from them for a while. So he took the other three girls to another area within the city and kept looking for the soul-consuming fogs.

It was not hard for them to avoid the city guardians because; Austin could keep a close watch on their movements by virtue of using a much stronger spiritual sense.

At that moment, one of the two groups stopped at the street where Austin had executed the Soul-transforming Skill.

"According to the soul messengers report, the man and three women had passed by here. The message is real," a City Guardian said. He looked around with his eyes as sharp as an eagle. He also extended his spiritual sense to every corner of the street.

As City Guardians, they could practice ssecret techniques since their spiritual sense was not totally suppressed so they could perceive a certain range with their spiritual sense.

"It's weird. How cthe soul messengers that we dispatched haven't returned with any information?" another City Guardian questioned. As he mentioned their predicament, the other four city guardians paused and also realized they had really not heard from the messengers.

It was really strange! Except for the first few soul messengers who had cback to report earlier, the other soul messengers seemed to have disappeared into thin air. None of them returned.

Although the City Guardians could use their spiritual sense in the city, their spiritual sense was limited to a certain range of distance. Even the City Guardian who had the most powerful spiritual sense could only perceive a range of no more than 1, 000 meters.

Therefore, most of the time, the City Guardians needed the soul messengers as their eyes to monitor the city and convey the information.

This city was very large and without the help of the soul messengers, it would be hard to find out where their targets were within the dense and complex streets.

Their faces fell when they realized that they had lost contact with all the soul messengers.

"Look at the white fog. Is it the soul-consuming fog?" They could see that there were threads of light grey and white fogs floating in the air. The original density of the soul-consuming fog was fading away to white. If the City Guardian hadn't observed the place carefully, he wouldn't have discovered the thin fogs.

"Yes, it is." "This is strange! Why does the soul-consuming fog break into threads? Normally, each soul-consuming fog has an array and its structure is very stable.

Is it because someone has broken the array in it?" "That is impossible. Even a cultivator of Master Realm can't easily break the array if he isn't familiar with the fog.

The castellans are the only three cultivators of Master Realm in the city. There's a blade cultivator who was also at the Master Realm though. He had been caught by the castellans Tyson and Gordon anyway.

How can there be another cultivator of the Master Realm wandering around in the city?!" "Normally, where there is a soul-consuming fog, there are numerous souls. But | can't see even one soul here. It's really strange." The City Guardians had never met this situation. For a moment, they were all confused.

"Forget it.

Maybe it is just because a fog's array doesn't work. It shouldn't be a big deal. When we return, we will just report our findings to the castellans. We're not good at arrays, so even if we just stand here and make a guess about what is wrong, we'll have no answer.

We'd better search for the man and the three women first!" a mature City Guardian said.

So they headed to another street using their secret bodily movement skills and disappeared.

Half a day later, the City Guardians appeared at another street where Austin and the other three girls had stayed before. The fog in that place was thinner and had fallen apart into threads. As the City Guardians looked at the scene, their faces were covered with extrastonishment and confusion.

Along the way, they didn't see any intact soul-consuming fog. What they saw was just dissolved soul-consuming fogs which were becoming thinner and disappearing.

While in the past, the soul-consuming fogs were always everywhere, and it was difficult to avoid them.

Finally, the City Guardians believed that something had gone wrong and the arrays in the soul-consuming fogs were somehow being damaged. Not just one or two fogs had been destroyed but humerous fogs were being destroyed.
