When Theon, the Sect Leader of the Sun Sect, and the other Elders saw Abbott, the captain of the
Blood Wolf Team, exert his whole energy to attack Austin, they were sure that Austin would be dead
meat soon.
Apart from Jaime, all the senior members of the Sun Sect appreciated Austin's gift after they saw the
real vital energy and cultivation base he possessed. But they thought that it was a pity that the Bloody
Palm Abbott had formed was going to destroy a talent like Austin in the blink of an eye.
Under the pressure of the one-acre Bloody Palm, Austin frowned. He suddenly folded his arms across
his chest and flapped them like a butterfly.
In a seemingly instantaneous burst of energy, another six-layered Grand Pagoda appeared over
Austin's palm.
"What?! How?!"
"How could this be possible?"
"How could he form another Grand Pagoda?"
When the crowd saw Austin form another Grand Pagoda, they were shocked and began murmuring
among themselves.
Most of the people gathering there might be only a little surprised, but the senior members of the Sun
Sect couldn't believe what they were seeing.
The Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill was well known to everyone in the Sun Sect. All the senior
members knew that the disadvantage of using this skill was that forming a Grand Pagoda would
consume about seventy percent of a cultivator's vital energy.
Austin had formed a Grand Pagoda just a while ago, so he must have used up seventy percent of his
vital energy already. Logically speaking, he should only have thirty percent of his vital energy left. That
was the very reason why Theon and the others had thought that Abbott's Bloody Palm would definitely
kill Austin.
Besides, Abbott had a big advantage over Austin in terms of cultivation base. Abbott was at the
medium stage of Mysterious Realm while Austin was only at the premium stage of Earth Realm. Killing
Austin, who had only thirty percent of his vital energy now, would be as easy as winking for Abbott.
However, the very fact that Austin had instantaneously formed another Grand Pagoda shocked
everyone in the Sun Sect to the core.
None of them could believe that he had managed to use the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill twice at
such a short interval.
They wondered how Austin had done this.
They had been shocked enough to find out that Austin was at the premium stage of Earth Realm. Now,
he had given them another surprise.
'What an extraordinary guy!'
the senior members marveled in their minds.
The truth was, Austin had replenished his vital energy with the vital energy stone in his elixir field just
then, so his vital energy was back to one hundred percent now.
And he was able to form a Grand Pagoda at such a high speed because of his persistent practice.
As soon as the six-layered Grand Pagoda was formed, Austin channeled his vital energy on his palm to
raise the pagoda. The next second, the pagoda shot up at the Bloody Palm like a bullet.
Bang!
The Bloody Palm rocked unsteadily when the pagoda crashed into it. This gave Austin a little time to
relax and collect himself.
However, after a moment, the pagoda failed to withstand the force of the Bloody Palm. It began
crackling and finally exploded.
The second Austin had shot the pagoda, he had activated the vital energy stone in his elixir field again,
so his vital energy was back to the maximum.
Now, he channeled the vital energy from the energy meridian to his hands and flapped his arms like a
butterfly once again.
The twisting golden snakes of vital energy appeared around his fingers.
Instantly, another six-layered Grand Pagoda formed over Austin's palm.
Austin was reeling with vital energy. His clothes were flapping furiously against the wind.
Tyranny and wickedness were the main characteristics of the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill, and
both qualities were evident in Austin's eyes.
He looked at Abbott with an impish expression on his face. He couldn't hide his excitement because
this was the first time he was battling a cultivator of Mysterious Realm.
This offered him the perfect opportunity to see the power a cultivator of Mysterious Realm had
firsthand.
'What?!
Austin used the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill three times?
How... How could this be possible?!' The senior members of the Sun Sect were struck dumb with
amazement.
They tried to think of a reasonable explanation for what they had just witnessed but their minds were
blank.
"Sect Leader, is it possible that we misunderstood the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill?
Maybe it's not true that the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill consumes seventy percent of a cultivator's
vital energy.
Look! This is the third time Austin is using this skill," one of the Sun Sect Elders said to Theon.
"No! According to all the rare books on the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill, it definitely consumes
seventy percent of vital energy. Besides, it's been proven by all our disciples who have practiced this
skill before.
What we misunderstood isn't the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill but Austin. The mystery surrounding
him is far beyond our comprehension.
This disciple has boundless prospects. In the future, he might achieve a level that nobody will be able
to surpass.
Austin's departure is a big loss to the Sun Sect," Theon said as he gazed thoughtfully at Austin.
Austin channeled his vital energy to his palm to shoot the third pagoda at the Bloody Palm again.
At the same time, he stood on tiptoe, breezily gliding backward.
Bang!
The pagoda smashed like a meteor against the Bloody Palm.
In a flash, the Bloody Palm stopped attacking. Instead, cracks started appearing on the Bloody Palm.
Abbott looked at this scene in disbelief. More and more cracks were creeping onto the Bloody Palm.
After a momentary stalemate, the six-layered pagoda exploded.
"Good for you! But I wonder how long your defense is going to work," Abbott said.
So far, Austin had withstood the Bloody Palm that he had exerted all his energy to form, twice.
Although his Bloody Palm was still at an advantage, Austin had suffered no damage yet.
As the captain of the Blood Wolf Team, Abbott was at the medium stage of Mysterious Realm, but he
had failed twice during this battle against an outer disciple of the Sun Sect. 'If people found out that
even a disciple of the Sun Sect could fight against the captain of the Blood Wolf Team, the reputation of
the Blood Wolf Team in the Violet Orchid Empire would be ruined.'
This thought drove Abbott crazy.
He continuously channeled vital energy to the Bloody Palm over Austin's head with a renewed passion.
After the two times that Austin's Grand Pagoda had smashed against the Bloody Palm, the Bloody
Palm had started cracking and even become blurry. But Abbott's vital energy force not only healed the
cracks but also strengthened the attack force.
The aggressive Bloody Palm now flew at Austin at top speed.
Although Austin hadn't suffered any damage from Abbott's attack, he knew well that this was only
temporary. If he kept replenishing his vital energy with the vital energy stone, the stone would be used
up sooner or later.
What was worse, Dwayne, the Elder of the Flaming Sun Valley, also considered Austin an enemy. He
would never let off the man who had killed his grandson.
Austin could see from the aura around Dwayne that he surpassed Abbott in both cultivation base and
vital energy.
Although Austin could continue the stalemate against Abbott for a while, he would have no strength to
withstand Dwayne's attack after that. This situation put him in a dilemma.
The best solution now would be to run away.
"Mr. Austin, do you need my help?"
Violet, who was inside his Illusion Bead, could observe everything that was happening now, so she
knew about his dilemma.
"No! You're only at the medium stage of Earth Realm. You wouldn't be able to help me even if you
came out," Austin answered.
Meanwhile, he flapped his arms again. Faint golden snakes of vital energy began twisting around his
fingers and gradually gathered on his palm. In a flash, another six-layered Grand Pagoda appeared
over his palm.
"Look! Austin formed another Grand Pagoda!" some of the people watching exclaimed in surprise.
It seemed that Austin had an inexhaustible supply of vital energy.
When the senior members of the Sun Sect looked at the fourth pagoda over Austin's palm, their jaws
dropped and they began murmuring among themselves.
Austin channeled his vital energy to his palm to shoot the fourth pagoda at the aggressive Bloody
Palm.
The second the pagoda shot into the air, Austin stood on tiptoe and exerted his Wind-commanding
Skill. Then, he fleetly glided backward.
Bang!
The pagoda smashed against the Bloody Palm.
"Abbott, Dwayne, and Jaime, you'll see! I'll always remember what you did to me today! You will pay a
bitter price for this in the future," Austin said with a laugh as he activated his vital energy.
With a gentle crack, a big pair of wings grew out of Austin's back. He flapped his wings and flew into
the air at once.
Everyone was stunned by what they were seeing now.
Abbott and Dwayne, however, immediately reacted to the very fact that Austin was trying to escape.
Both of them activated their vital energy force and flew toward Austin.
Cultivators of Mysterious Realm could use their vital energy force to fly in the air for a while.
It was obvious to them that Austin was running away as soon as they saw his wings.
There was no way they could let him go that easily.
Austin smiled when he saw them chasing after him. He channeled his vital energy into his wings along
his back. His wings sped up at once and Austin shot into the sky like a bullet.
He was far away from Dwayne and Abbott, who were still near the Sun Sect. Neither of them had been
able to keep up with him.
"You take it too easy, bastard! But you have no way to run now!"
Dwayne sneered when he saw Austin picking up the pace.
His eyes flashed violently.
All of a sudden, Austin could feel a force of spiritual sense bursting into his Soul Sea.
And then, the force of spiritual sense began to attack.
