The Supreme God of Martial Arts

She acutely observed something less obvious. While Austin was in this state of meditation, sharp sword lights flashed out of his body every now and then and then before returning inside in the blink of an eye.

'Could it be that Master is learning sswordsmanship?’ Violet wondered.

At every stage of the cultivation of Overlord Body-refining Formula, Austin's body had to be destroyed first. And then, similar to a phoenix, his body would be rebuilt; he would be reborn. To strengthen his physical form, he would first have to suffer unbearable pain. Violet thought it was really amazing that even though Austin was being tormented by the pain, he could still concentrate to cultivate his skills in his Soul Sea, because normally, meditation would require a quiet environment so that one could be absorbed in the process of meditating and cultivating.

Of course, Austin was oblivious to Violet's awe.

Inside his Soul Sea, every sword move made by his spiritual soul was impeccable, as if the sword had merged with the world. At times, the sword appeared out of thin air and disappeared again. It wasn't even possible to detect where it was coming from, so how could anyone defend against it? Moreover, the power of the sword wasn't only coming from Austin, it was also coming from nature. He was able to "borrow" power from nature and utilize the vital energy in it. This meant he had a lot more power than when he could use only the vital energy in his energy meridians. After all, one's own energy was always limited while energy from nature was endless! Suddenly, Austin's spiritual soul let out a clear roar. The sword in his hand turned into a beam of light, flashing in his Soul Sea. Subsequently, the light started to divide and formed five sword lights! Level five sword intent! However, the transformation didn't seem to stop here. The five sword lights started to contort. Each sword intent split off a part of itself. These parts merged into a new sword intent—the sixth one.

Level six sword intent! The sound of the level six sword intent was like the sound of a creature hatching from its egg, giving Austin's soul a sense of thrill and excitement.

Finally, he had reached level six sword intent. If he were to battle against that principal disciple, Augustine, from the Flaming Sun Valley, he would be able to match the disciple's level six blade intent with his level six sword intent.

It would be much easier for Austin to beat Augustine now as he wouldn't have to make use of his other skills just to contain Augustine's blade intent.

Just then... .

"What? My body..." Austin murmured. .

When he woke up from his state of meditation, he discovered that his body had stopped absorbing the elixir.

The elixir potion, which had originally been clear and emanating sherbal fragrance, had turned dark and smelly.

Evidently, the elixir had been fully assimilated and integrated into his physical body. His body...

It was so powerful! Austin punched the air just to test his power. One fist carried a force of 10, 000 pounds while two carried 20, 000 pounds. When his fists met the iron basket...

Bang! The metal container was smashed into pieces which swiveled into the distance.

Meanwhile, the basket of dirty liquid was turning into a water bomb. All of a sudden, the liquid exploded.

It was as if a volcano had erupted. The liquid was like lava, shooting outward from the center of the explosion.

The happenings here didn't escape Violet's attention though she was watching the surroundings instead of Austin. Once she heard the sound of the explosion and saw the liquid flying toward her, she quickly used her bodily movement skill to dash away to avoid being contaminated by the smelly potion.

'Wow! Now my punch has a force of 10, 000 pounds! Great!" Austin thought excitedly.

When he clenched his fists to feel his power, his bones and joints cracked like fireworks.

Curling his fingers into the shape of a claw, he grabbed the air in front of him. Amazingly, he could hear a heavy sound that cfrom the air. It was as though he had torn out a piece of air! The physical power he had achieved was beyond satisfactory. When he focused on his inner body, he could feel that all his organs had becas hard and sturdy as stones. He could feel the hidden power inside his body. He took a deep breath in, then breathed out, easily letting out a roar. The way he roared was no longer like a human but like a tiger! With Austin reaching level four of the Overlord Body-refining Formula, his bodily energy had been brought to another level. Every muscle and cell in his body had been strengthened. Austin felt as if he had an endless supply of force and energy. Upgrade! On the surface of his body, there was a vivid glow resembling that of a jade. His body was like a piece of art, a human-shaped jade.

His force, his vigor, and his physicality were all improved! Austin believed that he could now easily beat cultivators at the Energy Gathering Realm as well as most cultivators of the Earth Realm with just his physical strength. One punch could smash their bodies into pieces! "Master, congratulations for successfully reaching level four of the Overlord Body-refining Formula!" Violet elegantly walked toward Austin with excitement on her face.

"| just hope that | can get the elixir needed for reaching stage five. If | can reach that stage, the Overlord Body- refining Formula can grantsreal power.

Ten days later, the Outstanding Talents Exchange Games will commence. If | can upgrade to stage five by then, | can almost be sure that I'll get a ticket to the Mysterious Nether World.

The Mysterious Nether World is a place full of opportunities. It's a chance that no cultivator would miss. | must make it into that world!" Using their bodily movement skills, Austin and Violet quickly left the valley and headed back to imperial capital city.
