The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin was astonished.

His spiritual sense had beceven stronger than that of an overmatch in the Heaven Realm.

However, he still couldn't make out the interior of the Xian Clan's Shrine.

For this reason, Austin was sure that it had ssecrets.

"Austin, let's go inside.

| hope the Xian Clan's Shrine will be able to stand against an attack from the demon race just like my grandpa said,"

Emma said, a hint of doubt evident in her tone.

She was not too keen on the idea, but their clan did not really have much choice on the matter.

Austin followed Emma. He was eager to enter the mysterious Xian Clan's Shrine and see it with his own two eyes.

However, after taking a few steps, Austin suddenly stopped and furrowed his brows.

He found that a beam of unparalleled perception flooded in the place where he stood.

It then recognized Austin in an instant.

It was a demonic spiritual soul.

The powerful demonic spiritual soul abruptly stopped after it confirmed Austin's location.

A booming sound of terrifying laughter filled the space. "You're here.

We meet again, boy,"

the demonic spiritual soul said, addressing Austin.

‘Meet again?"

Austin was startled by the sudden declaration of the demonic spiritual soul. It got him thinking that he did sense something

familiar about its aura.

‘This is strange.

Have | ever met its owner?’ Austin speculated.

"Don't you remember me, boy?

I'm the Black Demon Imperator. You've killed many of my demon's messengers.

Today, you'll pay for it,"

the demonic spiritual soul sneered at Austin, sensing his confusion.

‘The Black Demon Imperator!"

Austin took a tumble and remembered everything.

In the Triangle Zone, he killed numerous overmatches in the Tribulation Realm of the Heaven Palace.

A few of them dispersed one and the sdemon face from their bodies before they died.

The demon face looked just like the Black Demon Imperator.

As for the overmatches in the Tribulation Realm of the Heaven Palace that Austin killed, they were all his demon's messengers.

Austin did not expect that the Black Demon Imperator would cafter him.

He felt chills run down his spine at the thought of it.

Austin began to gauge the Black Demon Imperator's power.

A demon imperator was equivalent to a human warrior in the Primal Holy Realm

To be specific, it had been said that in the PrMartial World, only the most powerful great masters could reach the Primal Holy

Realm.

Faced with such mighty power, it was clear to Austin that he had no chance of winning at all. The gap between their powers was

extremely vast.

He had never once thought that he would cface to face with such a horrible demon of this strength.

"Ha-ha! Are you scared, boy?

Well, wait for me, I'm almost there!"

the Black Demon Imperator exclaimed, laughing wildly; he had sensed Austin's fear.

He then transformed himself into a ray of demonic light and rushed towards the entrance of the Xian Clan's Shrine where Austin

stood.

Austin felt a cold sweat and his scalp tingled as he witnessed the demon's abnormal speed.

He was panicking on the inside; he knew he was in big trouble this time.

"Austin, con. Let's go."

Emma jogged Austin by the elbow. She noticed that he had stopped walking and his face had grown dark.

"Emma, you go on without me. I'm not going.

| need to leave the Water City. I'm sure we'll meet soon."

Austin suddenly changed his mind at the last minute because the Black Demon Imperator had located him with his demonic

spiritual soul.

If he entered the Xian Clan's Shrine, the demon imperator would be able to do the same.

If that happened, the whole Xian Clan would get involved in the conflict between him and the Black Demon Imperator.

Austin knew that the power of the Xian Clan would not be able to stand against the demon imperator's attack. He could kill them

all with little to no effort.

"Watch out. There's a demon coming towards us."

Before Austin could set off, the voice of Emma's grandfather, the head of the Xian Clan, called out from inside the shrine.

Afterwards, standing in front of the Xian Clan's Shrine, all the people including Austin felt a strong suction coming from it.

All of them were promptly teleported inside the Xian Clan's Shrine

They were all completely confused and had absolutely no clue about what had just happened.

Not long after, they soon found out that they were standing inside the Xian Clan's Shrine.

Several spirit tablets were hung on the most remote wall of the shrine. On those tablets were the names of the dead that served as

a memorial for the ancestors of the Xian Clan.

Bright candles burned all day on the four walls.

However, the lit candles still couldn't mask the mysterious aura pervading the air.

It was spine-chilling.

In the center of the Xian Clan's Shrine, a grey-haired old man sat cross-legged. He seemed to have entered his twilight years.

"Grandpa!"

Emma and Debby delightedly exclaimed as they saw the old man and immediately ran towards him.

"I'm so happy you're here,"

the old man said, looking lovingly at his granddaughters.

"Grandpa, the demons are coming. Why won't you allow us to leave the Water City?"

Debby blurted out, being one who always spoke her mind directly.

"Debby, we are members of the Xian Clan and we can't abandon the Xian Clan's Shrine no matter what happens. Understand?

I've taught you that since you were little kids.

We are the Xian Clan of the Water City and it is our duty to protect this shrine.

Guarding the Xian Clan's Shrine remains as our most important responsibility, as it has been for many generations.

Don't you remember?"

the old man sternly said to Debby, his eyes shining with dignity.

Debby was astonished at the look in her grandfather's eyes, so she didn't dare to say another word about it.

"Besides, as long as we are hidden in this shrine, the demons can't do any harm to us.

You can all rest assured,"

the old man comforted Debby, his eyes returning to their usual soft gaze.

'So what is so special about the Xian Clan's Shrine?"

Austin grew curious about it with every word that he heard them say.

He was still a little bit in shock about getting sucked in.

The old man's gaze then fell upon Austin.

"You must be Austin, the young man who saved my sons.

I'm very grateful. The Xian Clan will forever be in your debt,"

the old man said with a smile.

"Please, sir. That's not a big deal. You're being too polite,"

Austin quickly replied as he gave a salute.

Meanwhile, outside the shrine, a ray of dark light flashed and a tall demon appeared.

With the demon's arrival, the outside of the Xian Clan's Shrine was shrouded in an overwhelming evil aura.

It was so dark that as if the end of times was coming.

"Ha-ha. Human boy, are you hiding in there?

Hiding won't help. Wherever you are, | can get you,"

the Black Demon Imperator threatened with wild laughter.
