Matthew thought that as long as he used his Ice Mysterious skill, Austin's move would be significantly influenced—Austin would be frozen, and his movements would be restrained by the chill.
But the events showed otherwise. Matthew's Ice Mysterious skill was no match with Austin's cultivation method. Even facing the constant attacks by Matthew's Ice Mysterious skill, Austin was merely countering it without a sweat.
Completely confused, Matthew suddenly felt his head starting to ache. The pain was too much to bear that he began to lose focus on the combat.
Then a sense of danger overwhelmed him as he saw two daggers, a red one and a black one, appeared jointly, almost on his chest, from nowhere.
"How dare you do that?" Matthew shouted angrily.
His two hands stretched out in succession, and two ice mirrors took a form of a shield to stop the daggers.
Bang Bang! The ice mirrors had exploded. With the super-heat vital energy of the two staggers, the ice blocks had vanished into the air before it could melt on the ground.
Austin's Golden Sun Scripture afflicted Matthew's Ice Mysterious skill. So Mathew did not have the urge to defeat Austin when their vital energy slammed into one another.
Matthew's face turned pale, and he was overtly frightened that he found himself in despair.
It was so easy for Austin to kill him! As expected, the red dagger and black one cut Matthew's shoulders after they broke the two ice mirrors.
Ah! The Twin Shadow Blades had a weird way of attacking, and Matthew could not deal with it. He was lucky to dodge the daggers and save his body from being critically hit; otherwise, his chest would be completely notched and sliced.
Austin strode out and flashed before Matthew in a second. In Matthew's fright, Austin pouched him alternatively with his fists, exerting thousands of pounds in strength.
Compared with the martial arts skills that utilized vital energy, which was often used for a long distance, Austin preferred to fight against his enemy by his pure strength in close combat.
One reason was that sheer physical strength would not consume much of his vital energy, making him last longer and recover faster after a long fight.
Another reason was that when fighting against an opponent, his quick bodily movement burst strength and tenacity, making him feel vigorous with sweat.
Matthew's spirit started to recede when his confidence had wholly left him. He could only desperately form ice shields one after another, in the hope of preventing Austin's punch.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the end, when Austin drove a hefty punch for the tenth time, Matthew could no longer hold his defense. He was helpless as he watched Austin's fists approach him.
"You cannot kill me! The Blood Wolf Team has sent five of us to chase and kill you, and if we all died, then the whole team will hunt you until you are dead!" Matthew attempted to threaten, but as a response, Austin fully landed his last punch, much stronger than the previous one.
Bang! With a definite hit, Matthew's chest plunged hard, and his body was totally curved like that of a prawn.
Worse than this, his entire body was discharged like a bullet, and it flew high.
Blood spilled all throughout. It looked as if he had already been dead.
All five men sent by the Blood Wolf Team to chase Austin in the outer part of the Grand Desolation Mountain had all been killed by him! At the sight of Austin, both Violet and Fanny were lost in their thoughts to see him in full killing intent, with lust for blood all evident on his face and stance. He seemed like an entirely different person.
Fanny's eyes exhibited an expression of admiration.
"What do you think of this fight? Your eyes are twinkling too much. Have you fallen in love with my master?" Violet teased Fanny with a laugh as she strode a step away from Fanny.
"Violet, what are you talking about? Who in her right mind will fall in love with him?" Fanny chuckled and playfully smacked Violet. The girls started frolicking so happily that their master and friend had won the fight against powerful opponents.
Austin then walked over towards the dead bodies of the three members from the Blood Wolf Team and took away the three space rings, putting them into his own space ring.
After fighting, the place was turned into a complete mess—trees had collapsed and crumbled to pieces, roots wholly retracted from the soil, leaves were scattered everywhere, and some falling flowers were still dancing in the air. . . . . .
After Austin had put away the three space rings, he walked towards Violet and Fanny. A few steps forward, flowers fell on his face.
It made him quivered and suddenly stopped. His spiritual sense was as sharp as always, and it had given off some cold feeling that overwhelmed him.
His sensed that the ambiance of the forest had totally changed. There was some strange force hovering the area that did not previously exist.
Austin turned severe and alert. He raised his head and looked at the space which had become a little blear with the appearance of a mysterious force.
Something was definitely wrong.
Danger seemed to be looming around, waiting for the perfect time to strike. Although Austin's spiritual sense was sharp, he could not pinpoint what the force was, but even then, he knew that something was about to come, about to happen.
Austin clenched his fists, and his black eyes turned sharp. Then he raised his head, and his cold voice filled the entire forest.
"Who is it? Please show yourself!" There was a stony silence. No response came his way, and the atmosphere seemed chillier.
Without being noticed, the flowers dancing in mid-air had already doubled—now looking like numerous butterflies flapping their wings.
Both Violet and Fanny were surprised when they too, felt the sudden change in the air and heard Austin’s yell. The girls immediately swept their way beside Austin.
"Master, what happened?" Violet curiously asked.
"Someone is hiding and watching us," Austin replied, still keeping his sense alert and looking around.
Fanny looked at the flowers dropping on the ground and slightly bit her lip when she realized something.
Suddenly, Austin felt something happened around him. He could see the falling flowers solidify and filled with a kind of vital energy force.
At this sight, Austin was caught off guard and couldn't move.
The dancing flowers suddenly turned their directions, and charged at Austin in a matter of seconds, trying to cover him.
Swish! Swish! Swish! The first few flowers were thrown close to Austin's face. It was painful. He soon felt a splash of warm liquid in his body. Austin wiped it with his hand and saw handful blood. Those flowers were actually as sharp as blades.
"Hm Austin coldly uttered.
He started gathering his strength in his arms and hit the flowers. Instantly the flowers scattered in all directions and full of the sky.
But in a short time, the flowers gathered together, assembling in bunches and creating a dragon figure made out of flowers. The dragon charged at Austin waving its paws and showing its gritted teeth.
Boom! With all the strength in his arms, Austin beat it into pieces with a punch.
The flower dragon, however, after the flowers that forming the dragon scattered, huddled into one piece again. They seemed to be powered with endless energy.
Austin frowned, realizing his attack was useless. If he kept beating the flower dragon like that, he would be exhausted soon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe broke the flower dragon once.
He broke the flower dragon twice.
He broke the flower dragon three times. . . .
Austin continuously attacked, and the results were all the same—the flower dragon would disintegrate and then all gathered in one piece again. Since the moment he had practiced the Overlord Body-refining Formula, this was his first time to feel physically drained and tired.
He decided to use his Wind-commanding Skill, and he swiftly retreated ten meters in hopes of dodging the flower dragon for a while, thereby saving more of his vital energy.
However, the flower dragon tailed him wherever he went. The Wind-commanding Skill was useless, after all.
What made Austin felt strange was that the flower dragon chased and attacked only him as if Violet and Fanny were not around.
Even when it passed near the two, it never struck them.
Austin did not know how to deal with the flower dragon, but he was thinking of using his Twin Shadow Blades. The two daggers attacked the flower dragon alternatively and took his place for the time being. Austin heaved a sigh of relief watching the blades counter the flower dragon. He could use this time to think for a counterattack.
"You! Small-minded guy! If you keep doing this, | will never talk to you later!" Fanny shouted at the sky as if talking to someone.
"Small-minded guy? Who are you talking about?" Austin was confused.
Both Austin and Violet did not know whom Fanny was talking to or who she was talking about.
"Fanny, what is happening? You know the guy who is controlling the flower dragon, don't you?" "Yes, you are right. It is my grandfather's protege, who made the Flower Dragon Array." "Flower Dragon Array? Did your grandpa's protege set it here? | don't remember having a problem with this guy nor even meeting him at the very least. Why did he suddenly attack me with this array?" Austin asked, utterly confused about the whole situation.
He could not understand what was happening.
"Don't speak of him. He always acts pettily and selfishly, and he is a total jerk!" Fanny furiously replied.
With an angry look, Fanny glared in some direction.
Austin looked at the same direction as Fanny, and his spiritual sense barely perceived a figure somewhere. Although he had a sharp spiritual sense, this guy was definitely challenging to find.
‘That array is really amazing." Austin sighed in his mind and thought of how it took him a lot of strength to fight against the flower dragon. After all his attacks, it was still unscathed.
"Austin, let me help you to break the array! " Fanny loudly exclaimed while Austin was lost in his thought.
