'Hmm.. It seems like the titan's power is sealed by the huge golden sword.
Looks like this giant is sleeping peacefully.
He's kind of funny, though. | can't believe he talked in his sleep!"
Austin thought to himself as he watched the titan.
Even a single sound from the titan could shake the whole earth for his mouth was a thousand meters wide.
And any sound it produced could be heard as a furious growl from a giant monster.
"Kevin, I'm going to kill you!
the titan whispered, which seemed like a growl for revenge.
'l know this titan seems amazing, but | bet that Kevin is stronger than him.
After all, it was this Kevin guy who won their last fight and locked him up with a golden sword. How strong could Kevin possibly
get?’
Austin trembled at the thought.
Meanwhile, while the titan was fast asleep, with a little bit of murmur here and there, Austin's eyes fell on the huge golden sword in
front of him.
From what he had seen, the blade of the sword was smacked right in the belly of the titan, and the golden sword-light given off by
the sword attacked the titan continuously.
But Austin could only see the blade part of the whole sword since it was so huge that the handle was already above the clouds.
'Wow. Whatever this sword is or wherever it cfrom, | bet it must be such an incredible treasure now that it really pinned the
titan to the ground.
| wish I had one, though, ' he said inwardly.
And although he gushed over the sword so badly, he had no intention of being its master.
'But | really don't think I'm strong enough to even remove the sword from his body!
Even if | succeed on that plan, what the hell am | going to do when he wakes up?
Who can bring him down again?
| can tell by his aura that he's not just speaceful goody titan. What if he kills innocent people after | set him free? | can't take
the blfor that.
Who, in the PrMartial World, would be willing and be able to stop him?*
Austin gave his own self a mocking smile and intended to leave.

And with all the questions that boggled his head, he had just planned to stop his adventure
because he thought that the place was far too dangerous for him to tread alone.
And from tto the could sense the ground tremble. It was as if the titan was not the only huge creature around the area.
‘Perhaps other monstrously big and spooky monsters are nearby.
Thank God the titan was under restraints. If not, then this adventure could be the death of me!
But on the other hand, if | meet sfree roaming violent creatures, then I'll be in a lot of trouble. Yes, I'd better leave while I still
can.
Austin turned around and leaped into the air. And without saying another word, he retraced his steps back and returned to where
he cfrom.
But on his way back, he had been attacked by saggressive balls of wind, sword-light, saber-light, palm shadows, almost every
other powerful attack.
But none of them succeeded in destroying Austin for his Fire Stela had defended him from all the mix of attacks that went straight
to him.
‘Never underestimate the power of ancient skills. These powerful skills belonged to those ancient masters who had been at war in
the battlefield.
Although, of course, most of them had already left the earth, these best skills remain preserved with the living here for some
reason.
They might be less powerful nowadays, but they could still cause harm to people, ' he surmised.
And with more than half a day of flying back, he had finally returned to the stone door he had been looking for.
Then, Austin channeled his spiritual sense into the Illusion Bead from his Soul Sea and asked the gnto cout of it. And by
using his Space Teleportation, the gnhad transported them back to the other side of the stone door.
But something was blocking his mind. Austin began to think and recall about the ancient battlefield that he had just seen.
He was still baffled with what the battlefield had shown him even though he had already left the scene.
'Who knew that a vast battlefield under the Middle World Waters ever existed?
Nah. | don't think people will believeanyway if | do tell them about that place, ' he thought.
But Austin didn't leave the cave just yet.
Instead, he just sat down, crossed his legs in front of the stone door and started to practice the Golden Sun Scripture.
One of the reasons why he stayed near the door was that this certain stone door was a big help in his vital energy cultivation
process.
Absorbing the energy emitting from the door could accelerate the process of his vital energy cultivating.
Besides, he had learnt a lot on how to improve the quantity and quality of his vital energy from the previous fights.
This gave him the motivation and willingness to try and see if he had the ability to upgrade to the next stage.
He had no tto waste in this journey for every moment counted. Soon after all the precaution and thinking about all the
important points, he was in a deep dive in practicing the Golden Sun Scripture.
Suddenly, Violet and the gnjumped out from the Illusion Bead. They faced the door and sat down. Soon, they started their
cultivation as well.
The stone door's energy didn't only contribute to the vital energy of human cultivators, but also to the cultivation of the diabolic
beasts.
Without being disturbed, Austin sat there with his eyes closed and continued with his practice.
A day has passed, and Violet and the gnfinally opened their eyes. And immediately, they fixed their eyes on Austin.
"I can't believe that this brat made a breakthrough!"
the gnsaid in a jealous tone.
As soon as the words left the gnome's mouth, huge amounts of vital energy surged out from Austin's body and dissipated into
different directions.
Violet and the gnlooked at each other in surprise. They were certain that the massive amounts of vital energy that were
released could only mean one thing—Austin had finally reached the medium stage of Master Realm.
Excited to see the changes that he made after the breakthrough, Austin opened his glistening eyes.
Huuu!
Austin yawned and stretched out his arms.
'This stone door is truly helpful. If it weren't for this, | wouldn't have broken into the medium stage of Master Realm.
I wish | could take this door with me. After all, it's such a treasure, '
Austin sighed in dismay.
But apart from the fact that he knew the stone door brought him so much help, he also realized that his combat fightings led him
to a faster breakthrough.
"Hey, guys! Con, let's get out of here."
Austin got up.
Violet, the gnome, and Austin then walked through the tunnel feeling very fulfilled. It was not long until they returned to the
mountain.

A dozen rocks, with an approximate weight of a thousand pounds, piled up and covered the entrance of the cave as Austin waved
his hand.
'Why can't | get it off my mind? Perhaps the mysterious battlefield has a lot of secrets.
Maybe | could pay it a visit again once I'm strong enough, ' he planned in his mind.
Soon, the entrance was hidden like camouflage. It was kept well that no one would even suspect that it ever existed in the first
place.
Austin then scanned the waters nearby with the help of his spiritual sense.
It was a good thing that there were no major hurdles for him for he only spotted a few sea beasts that lurked around the area.
Meanwhile, Violet and the gnjumped inside of the Illusion Bead again.
Austin was much faster than the two
and having both of them in water with him would only slow him down.
After he settled everything, he then rushed straight toward the sea surface at full speed.
His Waters-dividing Bead helped him a lot on his journeys. This magic bead allowed him to move in the water as quickly as he
could do on land. With this special bead beside him, nothing could slow him down now.
And just after a few seconds of trailing on the surface of the sea, he soared into the sky and went to the Third Outer Ring.
He opted to go to the Third Outer Ring first to check if the leader of the mermaids was in Justin's place.
'If they have already freed the leader of mermaids from the ancestral mausoleum, | can get three bottles of Magic Sea Water as the
princesses promised me, ' he thought.
He did not waste any tand went straight to his destination.
Suddenly, cussing and fighting noises echoed throughout the area.
Of course, Austin was curious and he wanted to know what was happening to his left. To ease his confusion, he then released his
spiritual sense to figure it out once and for all.
With the use of his spiritual sense, he saw an island below.
About a dozen unidentified figures stood on the island.
He then probed the figures using his spiritual sense to figure out their identities.
"Oh shit. Here they are again,"
he murmured in displeasure as he raised one of his eyebrows.
After thinking for a while, Austin changed his plan and headed towards the island to see what was really going on.
