The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin and the queen were swallowing the Magic Sea Water to stop the infinite aura from eroding their bodies.

At that time, the people at the square turned towards their direction and spotted them.

'It's them! They're here now, *

everyone thought, totally shocked.

‘This island is the place with the densest infinite aura. This young man has just been able to reach the preliminary stage of Heaven

Realm. Then how did he dare to chere?’ This thought kept lurking in everyone's mind.

"Didn't | ask you to leave this place?"

Julius's voice was heard as he addressed Austin.

Austin smiled in sheer embarrassment.

He could feel that Julius, the elder in green robes, cared for him sincerely. He was one of the few whom Austin regarded as a decent

elder and respected him. There was genuine concern and kindness that seemed to radiate from Julius.

"Bastards! Now you have nowhere to hide.

I'll get hold of you and torture you to my heart's content."

A furious voice cursing them cfrom the distance.

The voice belonged to the bald-headed, old man who had followed Austin and the queen till there.

Everyone was at a loss. They had no idea what the elder was talking about.

Soon, the confusion on their faces disappeared.

They started to speculate what was going on between the bald-headed man and Austin. They had their own theory about it all.

When Wallace and his companions reached the island and didn't see that bald-headed man, they thought that he was killed by the

infinite aura or something. They cto the conclusion because they didn't see him anywhere.

But it turned out otherwise, the bald-headed man had left secretly to chase Austin and the queen.

Having lived several hundred years, all the human cultivators present at the square were intelligent and observant. They surmised

that the bald-headed elder must have planned to rob Austin and his companion of treasures.

Julius too understood why Austin and the queen had reached the square.

‘They must have chere to dodge and escape from that bald-headed elder, ' he thoughtfully concluded.

He let out a snort and turned to look at Austin.

"Both of you cover here!"

He called out to Austin with a stern expression.

It didn't take long for Austin to realize that Julius was trying to protect him. He and the queen quickly entered the area of the

square and stood beside him.

The square was still covered by the dense infinite aura.

Austin kept injecting his vital energy into the Slaughtering Sword so that it released bloody sword aura to envelop Austin. It

protected him from the dangerous infinite aura.

Wild flames kept spurting out of the magic fan which was in the queen's hand. Soon they spread and formed a dto protect the

queen.

Staring at the Slaughtering Sword in Austin's possession, the strong human cultivators and demons who were at the square, sank

into their thoughts. There were a lot of things beyond their comprehension.

They couldn't understand how a cultivator at the preliminary stage of Heaven Realm could have so much vital energy that he could

keep an archaic weapon working for such a long time.

What they didn't know was that Austin had a precious treasure—the vital energy stone which could store a great amount of vital

energy. This was one of the reasons why Austin had mustered up the courage to enter the Nonuple Isles.

Moments later, the bald-headed elder showed up on the edge of the square.

He was greatly surprised at the sight of all those human cultivators and demons.

Since the infinite aura was dense on that island and it could erode spiritual sense force as well, even the masters at the Holy Realm

avoided unleashing their spiritual sense.

Compared to vital energy cultivation, spiritual sense cultivation was much more difficult. If a cultivator's spiritual sense was

damaged or consumed, it would take them a long tto recover or replenish it.

Hence, cultivators usually didn't take big risks with their spiritual sense. They used it only in dire circumstances.

The bald-headed elder hadn't unleashed his spiritual sense. Thus, he hadn't been able to find those people who were at the square

from afar.

"Ha-ha! Here you are! | was wondering where you had gone.

But, | finally found you," the bald-headed elder laughed triumphantly.

Since Austin and the queen stood next to Julius, and there were so many people at the square, he realized that it was not a good

idea to take the treasures away from Austin and the queen at that time.

"Sir, it must be tiresfor you to keep chasing after us," Austin spoke with a smirk.

The way the bald elder was pursing him and the queen annoyed Austin a lot.

"Watch your tongue, you brat!

Is this how you talk to an elder? Were you not taught how to respect the elders?"

the bald elder snapped at Austin.

"Cool down, my friend! Let's get down to business in a sensible way. Don't forget our mission," Wallace mediated trying to calm

down the situation between Austin and the bald elder.

He was aware that the bald man intended to steal the treasures from Austin.

‘This world is ruled by the strong, and the weak are doomed to be bullied. Things like this happen every day in the PrMartial

World." Wallace was thoughtful and dejected by the way the world functioned.

The bald elder cast Austin an angry stare.

"Guys, Battle Emperor is supposed to be in this palace. Let's go and find him,"

Wallace announced to his companions loudly, getting their attention back to their mission.

It was important to remember the reason for travelling all the way. Their mission was to look for the Battle Emperor in the Nonuple

Isles.

The rest of the men nodded in agreement.

Nearly a dozen human cultivators began to make their way towards the entrance of the palace.

All of them were extremely alert for they had no idea what was waiting for them inside the premises of the palace.

Anxious to know what would happen next, even the strong demons fixed their eyes on the human cultivators who were heading

ahead to enter the palace.

The huge door of the palace was closed.

Wallace, who took the lead, paused in front of the gate in anticipation. After hesitating for a moment, he waved his hand.

Bang!

A strong, pure vital energy force hit the doors like a huge wave.

A minute later, the two panels of the door opened slowly.

The result of his action left Wallace surprised.

He didn't expect that the door would open so easily. He thought it was guarded by strong power and spells, but he had been

wrong.

"Guys, cwith me!" Wallace said with a wave of his hand.

He stepped into the mansion and led all his men ahead.

Filled with curiosity, Austin too followed them. He was accompanied by the queen.

"Let's go and have a look there," the demon in charge said after seeing the human cultivators enter that mansion. He quietly

gestured his crew to follow him.

"Lord Annihilator the Demon Emperor must be in the palace too."

He dashed into the mansion with other demons following him.

When the human cultivators stepped inside, they saw nothing but white fog. It had filled up the whole space.

The mansion occupied a vast area but they couldn't see its walls or the extent to which it lay, due to the fog.

"There is no infinite aura here!"

one of the cultivators exclaimed in delight when he discovered the absence of the infinite aura in the palace.

His words caught everyone's attention and drew the other cultivators out of trance.

‘Yes! There is no trace of infinite aura in this palace.’

Everyone began to realize the sthing and felt extremely relieved.

The sfeeling filled Austin too. 'Oh, yeah! | can finally stop infusing my vital energy into the Slaughtering Sword."

He had been transferring his vital energy to the Slaughtering Sword from the the had entered the area of the infinite aura. Now

he could finally stop it. It was indeed a great relief for him.
