The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Above a valley covered by dense jungle in the Sunset Mountain, a strange Corrosive Cloud appeared out of nowhere and took Austin, along with his three companions away. About half an hour later, hundreds of people flew past the place where the Corrosive Clouds had appeared.

The three leaders of the group were cursing in frustration and regret.

"Damn it! Do you remember the shadow? Its appearance on the Crystal Mine Mountain must represent the emergence of the treasures of the ancient master! An wrong step has caused us lifelong regret. We missed a great opportunity and that kid took what should have been ours.

What a shame!" "Yes, we are a step too late.

In my opinion, the shadow is the spiritual sense left by the ancient master.

Alas! It's too late to repent or brood over spilled milk!" "I think that kid named Austin must have taken the treasures.

We have all seen that kid before. So we may still have a chance.

We can work together and track his whereabouts. So we can take the treasures back.

He is a tough nut to crack, especially with his tremendous physical strength and his use of so many strong diabolic beasts and corpse demons.

So the only way to defeat him is by working together, not by an individual forceful attack. We could hold a party and bring him to defeat him with a surprise attack.

It is still possible for us to take the ancient master's treasures back." "Yeah, that makes sense. Okay, | agree. Let's do it!" The three people plotting were the Sect Leaders of the Flying Fish Sect, the Iron Palm Sect and the Evergreen Sect.

When the four Master Realm cultivators arrived at the Crystal Mine Mountain, the three Sect Leaders fled away with their subordinates and stayed in the Sunset Mountain for a day. Once the coast was clear, they started off with their people and horses to leave the mountain.

Shortly after, they arrived at the place where Austin and the girls had disappeared.

Suddenly, something strange happened.

A mass of Corrosive Cloud floated towards them from the dense forest in the valley.

The cloud was extremely wide, with a diameter of hundreds of miles. Without even realizing what had happened, the hundreds of people from the three sects were enveloped in the dark cloud.

One after the other, they gradually lost their sight and their spiritual sense couldn't perceive anything neither. It was as if something trapped them in a pitch-black world.

What was worse, they couldn't activate their vital energy, so they could not fly forward, which in essence meant they were stuck in the cloud and couldn't move a step.

"What the hell is this?!" "Damn it! | can't move! Somebody, please help me!". .

Everyone was in a state of panic, behaving erratically and screaming in fear. The leaders, who were the strongest among them, were no exception.

Shortly after, the Corrosive Clouds disappeared without a trace. The sky beccrystal clear again as if nothing had ever happened.

A few seconds later...

A flash of blade suddenly appeared sight from the distance.

The flash of the blade was so strong that it split the space into two and the air rolled away to both sides.

Whoosh! A strapping man stopped at the splace. Around his body, the blade intent spread all over the place and the flash of the blade shot up shining in the sky. It was none other than Malick, a Master Realm cultivator of the Sky Sect.

"It seems that two groups of people stayed in this place and the first group had traces of the boy that I'm tracking.

So it seems | am following the right direction.

Hmph! | have stored his scent firmly in mind. Even if he flees to the end of the earth, I'll slowly find him!" Malick murmured while staring in the distance. His eyes were as sharp as the blade.

"But... this is very strange! | can't find his scent anymore. It seems as if it suddenly disappeared right here.

How come? What could be the matter?" Malick frowned. A look of bemusement spread across his face.

After Austin escaped right in front of him the last time, he then made up his mind to catch him right in the act. So he had diligently searched for Austin and traced his whereabouts to a place nearby. He could still clearly remember Austin's scent, which still lingered in that place.

However, at just the moment when Malick was pondering, the sthing happened again.

The weird cloud appeared again.

It moved so quickly that Malick didn't even have the tto react and was trapped in it.

"Damn! What the heck is that?" Malick clenched his fist in shock and outrage. He was also frightened.

He found himself unable to perceive his surroundings with his spiritual sense.

He could see nothing but endless darkness, neither could he activate his vital energy properly. He could only use only twenty or thirty percent of his powers.

"Huh, don't dream of trappingwith such evil little trick.

Take this!" Malick had been practicing using the blade and had achieved great success in using the skill.

Resentful and exasperated, he burst out all his blade intent abruptly.

The light reflected by the blade was dazzling and bright. A blade aura as wide as a door plank shot out at the cloud.

Whoosh! Malick's attack left a deep crack on the thick cloud and a thread of light emerged from it.

"Hah-hah! Look! Nothing can withstand my blade!" The key to using a blade was to forge ahead aggressively without looking back and destroy every obstacle without hesitation.

And this was exactly what Malick embodied.

As the blade cut a crack on the cloud, Malick moved forward through the gap and tried to get rid of it.

But soon his face grew gloomy again.

Hardly had the huge blade aura got one hundred meters away before it faded away.

The crack soon closed and his surroundings becdark again.

"Damn it!" Trapped in the cloud, Malick felt as if all his veins were blocked and he could only activate twenty or thirty percent of his vital energy.

When he was about to release another blade aura, he suddenly felt dizzy and something spun him in the air.

Shortly after, everything cto an end. The sky beccrystal clear again. Sunlight flooded the earth and there was not a speck of cloud in the sky.

After Malick was taken away by the mysterious cloud, four or five groups of people passed the place in succession. They were all trapped by the Corrosive Clouds and soon disappeared with the clouds.

Of course, most of them were chasing after Austin. . .

At that moment, Austin, along with Tessa, Dahlia and her maid, was walking in an empty street. The street seemed to have once been a busy commercial street. Walking along the street, they could see many stores on both sides.

Austin stopped at one of the stores and observed the goods spread on the counter. They had remained untouched for a long tand dust had settled on the surfaces. He took one of the goods and found it was a dusty rattle.

Austin shook the rattle, which made a dull sound. Then he put it down and held a painted mask before his eyes.

"lI don't understand. Where on earth are we? What place is this? We were trapped by a strange cloud and then we were sent to this place. How odd!" Austin frowned, he couldn't figure out where they were.

The three girls were also at a loss. They were so scared that they kept close to Austin, afraid that if they made one careless move, they would get lost.

Dahlia and her maid clung to him. Earlier they had verbally abused him and called him a lecher, but now, they couldn't tear themselves away from him.

The place was so weird and horrible so the girls heavily relied on him. Even if Austin was a real lecher, they still had to stay with him, because he was the strongest among them.

And he was the only man. He would protect the girls if they were in danger.

Ever since they were sent to the dilapidated city by an unknown force, Austin had tried countless times to release his spiritual sense to perceive and analyze their surroundings.

Austin's spiritual sense was strong enough to perceive targets within a radius of fifty thousand meters.

However, in this place, no matter how many times he released his spiritual sense, he could only perceive things within one hundred meters radius.

He was more shocked than scared.

He had no idea what was there beyond one hundred meters.

He suspected that something had blocked or eroded his spiritual sense and only one percent was left.

Austin was fortunate as compared to the girls whose spiritual senses had basically disappeared in that place. When they realized their predicament the girls screamed in panic.

They could hardly release or perceive anything.

So the girls could only see things with their eyes.

They walked for almost an hour in the streets of the city.

"Austin, look! Isn't this where we were before? We seem to have circled back to where we originally began!" Suddenly, Tessa stopped him, whispering. She was a careful observer.

Austin was puzzled at first, but soon realized what she was saying and surveyed the area carefully.

Sure enough, there was a restaurant in front of him. The dusty signboard had fallen on the ground, but they could still recognize the characters on it. It read: "Good Luck Restaurant".

It was exactly what they had seen when they first arrived in the city.

However, what alarmed Austin was that he remembered that they were walking straight to the city center.

'How was it possible that they had returned to the splace after an hour's walk? Is it possible that the four of them turned around without realizing?" Austin wondered in dismay.

"Let's try again and take another direction," suggested Austin.

The girls had no objection. So they took the opposite direction this time.

An hour later.

"Oh no! We cback again!" the girls exclaimed in unison.

Of course, Austin also realized.

It was still the sGood Luck Restaurant that they had earlier seen.

"Oh God! What's wrong with this place? Please help us out! We seem to be lost! What are we going to do, lecher?" Dahlia cried helplessly.

"Could it be a maze?" Austin mused, frowning.

"Austin, look! It is misty over there!" Suddenly, Tessa said, pointing towards the end of the street.

Everyone's gaze followed the direction which her finger pointed. Streams of gray smoke began to diffuse slowly at the end of the street.

A few seconds later, the grey smoke had covered the end of the street and was still coming towards the four.

The houses appeared as a blur in the grey mist. It seemed that the houses, along with the street, were twisting, as if they were alive.
