Once he heard that there was Scorching Evil Fire which ranked third in the Unearthly Fire List in the Fire Valley, Austin's eyes were filled with greed. He could already imagine himself possessing the elusive power.
There were twelve kinds of Unearthly Fire in heaven and earth, and each of them was invaluable.
However, when he thought of the danger involved in acquiring the Scorching Evil Fire in the Fire Valley, he hesitated. He was ambitious but not reckless enough to lose his life, and besides, he was aware of his limitations.
'It seems I'm not powerful enough to go deeper into the valley.
Each Unearthly Fire is powerful enough to destroy the world. Even if | was powerful enough to go deeper and reach the place where the Unearthly Fire is, I'm afraid that | can't take the Scorching Evil Fire away with my current level of competence, ' thought Austin.
From the contemplative look on Austin's face, Angus figured out what he was thinking.
"Haha! Young man, it seems you have previously entered the Fire Valley and know how dangerous it is inside.
It's true that with your current level of competence, you can't even approach the Scorching Evil Fire, let alone take it away. Any carelessness will cause you to be burned into ash.
But don't despair. | can help you fetch the Scorching Evil fire in the Fire Valley, because | had tamed it before my death, and | was its owner," Angus said in a low voice.
"What? Senior, you're the owner of the Scorching Evil Fire?" Austin's eyes becalive once more in amazement and he looked at the old man with awe in his eyes.
Since he was capable of taming the Scorching Evil Fire, then the elder was by no means ordinary.
"Yes. In fact, the reason | beca soul was because of the Scorching Evil Fire. Alas! It's a miserable story. Let bygones be bygones.
The Scorching Evil Fire can recognize my breath. If | put a strand of breath of my soul into your Soul Sea, then you can approach it.
And | will put the method to tthe Scorching Evil Fire into your Soul Sea too.
Even so, you still should be careful, especially when you get close to it. You must communicate with it sincerely through your mind, and only when it accepts you as its owner, will it completely belong to you." With that, Angus drew a strand of breath from his soul and pressed it into Austin's Soul Sea together with detailed information about how to subdue the Scorching Evil Fire.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough it was the breath of a soul, Austin could still feel a strong spiritual sense power cinto his Soul Sea.
He couldn't help but secretly admire the old man's powers.
'It seems Angus’ spiritual sense power had reached an extremely high level when he was alive. When compared to his, my current spiritual sense power is nothing at all, ' he thought.
After sending a strand of breath to Austin's Soul Sea, Angus flicked his fingers and shot a pill to Austin, emanating a chill from tto time.
"| concocted this pill with icy snow lotus flowers which had grown for more than a thousand years. If any unexpected thing happens while taming the Sun Flame, taking this pill can temporarily prevent you from being burned into ash by the Scorching Evil Fire," Angus said.
Austin held the Snow Lotus Elixir in his hand and an unbearable coldness ran through his whole body, leaving a streak of chills on his bones. He could almost feel its trail through his body. He shivered, as if he was in an ice cellar.
He immediately stuffed the pill into his Space Ring.
"Young man, you're the first one | have seen in the past five hundred years since | have been confined to this awful place and I'm glad to have met you here. That's all | can give you. You can leave now," Angus said with a little sadness. Although Austin was not his disciple, in these past few days, he had taken him in and considered him as his disciple.
Austin was also reluctant to part with him. They just met by chance, but the old man had given him too much.
"Senior, from what you said, | guess you were set up by Lyman.
I swear | will kill him and take revenge for you if | see him in the future," Austin said seriously.
"Ha-ha! I'm already gratified by your kindness. You're an upright person as | had expected.
But with your current cultivation base, it's impossible to take revenge for me.
You can't imagine how powerful Lyman is." Angus’ face flickered, then he shook his head slightly. He knew that with Austin's current skill level and competence, it was only a daydream and wishful thinking for him to even consider killing Lyman.
"Senior, several years ago, | was framed and hit in the head by someone. As a result of the accident, | went off the deep end and beca fool. Even half a year ago, | was still an idiot and every one of the Sun Sect could bullyat will.
In those days, my position was even lower than dust! However, | didn't yield to fate.
When | recovered, | swore that | would be stronger someday and never be in such a weak position again.
In the past half year, | have reached the medium stage of Mysterious Realm from level two of Energy Gathering Realm through thick and thin.
Now my skill competence has outrun almost all those who looked down upon me, humiliatedand framed me.
And | have killed sof them, while | will kill the other remaining culprits soon.
| am determined that no matter what happens in my journey toward martial arts cultivation, | will never give up! | believe that someday, | will reach the highest level of martial arts.
For now Lyman might be very powerful for me, and | might be no match for him at all. But | believe | will catch up to him and surpass him one day.
That will be the opportune tforto revenge for you," Austin said slowly. Every word showed his determination, and there was an unmistakable conviction in his voice.
Angus kept silence for a while, then he nodded with admiration.
"Very good, young man! Hahaha! Your cultivation base may be weak now, but very few people can be as strong-minded as you. Maybe you will really reach the cultivation pinnacle in the future.
Then what | need to do is to wait for the good news that you have taken revenge forand avenged all my transgressors," Angus said, trembling slightly.
He had been set up by someone and brought to such a miserable situation five hundred years ago, and had to stay in this small valley since then, so of course he wanted revenge.
He had never stopped thinking about this. However, he knew how powerful Lyman was, and it wouldn't be easy to kill him.
As twent by, the hope of taking revenge started fading since there didn't seem to be anyone strong enough to defeat Lyman, so he had buried this idea in his heart.
Now the young man in front of him had renewed his hope for revenge. The hope was as tiny as a spark, but even a spark had been known to start a prairie fire! Subconsciously, he wanted to find someone to take revenge for him. That was why he had taught Austin so much and given him so many valuable things, including the Scorching Evil Fire.
"Ha-ha! Young man, now you can go and fetch the Scorching Evil Fire.
You have limited tto stay in the Mysterious Nether World, so don't waste too much there.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI'm familiar with the Mysterious Nether World and | will transfer all the detailed information about this special space to your Soul Sea. After fetching the Scorching Evil Fire, you will get huge benefits from the Mysterious Nether World." With that, Angus transferred more information into Austin's Soul Sea.
Austin was excited beyond comprehension. He could not believe his luck in meeting this mysterious and knowledgeable old man. 'Angus has been in the Mysterious Nether World for several hundred years, so he must know a lot about this place. With these instructions, | will be able to go through the Mysterious Nether World without difficulties, ' he thought.
Before leaving, Austin bowed to Angus respectfully. The old man in front of him had told him everything he knew and given him everything he could give him, so although they did not have the master and disciple kind of relationship in name, they were in reality.
Austin left the space behind the cliff with Violet and the gnome. After stime, they cto a smooth cliff at the end of the Medicine Valley.
Until now, Austin had been in the space behind the cliff for about two days.
In spite of the short period, he had gained a great deal.
The first was a five-fold increase in his spiritual sense power. Now he was able to probe an area of 45000 meters around comfortably. Austin believed that his current spiritual sense power was much higher than most of the Sky Realm cultivators.
Next, he would get the Scorching Evil Fire which ranked third in the Unearthly Fire List soon. This would be the highlight of his journey.
The moment he strode out of the cliff, Austin frowned. He could sense a dozen strands of strong vital energy force rushing in the direction of the cliff.
Several strands of the vital energy force were extremely powerful, and he deduced that the person who had released them had a very high cultivation base.
Austin released his spiritual sense power to probe and soon, he was clear about the source, tracks and target of the vital energy force. He summoned his own vital energy to form a protective cloak around himself and several strands of vital energy force that had honed on him like a laser target towards him were blocked.
Then he used the bodily movement skill and moved a hundred meters away and dodged the attacks from the ever-increasing vital energy force while breaking no sweat.
Austin had reached the medium stage of Mysterious Realm in vital energy cultivation base, but his vital energy was much stronger than most of his peers who were cultivators at the medium stage of Mysterious Realm.
He was confident that his vital energy force could even be on a par with cultivators who had reached the premium stage of Mysterious Realm.
With a strong vital energy, spiritual sense power and the Wind-commanding Skill, Austin broke the vital energy force attacking him easily.
"These guys did it!" he said to himself.
Austin stopped moving, and a cold expression appeared on his face once he recognized the faces of those who had initiated attack. They were no other than Leo and his followers.
