The Supreme God of Martial Arts

"When did this outer disciple join our sect?" Elder Damian asked. His eyes were fixed on the black-robed man who had died at the

hands of Austin.

He was the man in purple who had been with Bruno during the day.

Austin was shocked to know the assassin's identity. "Who would've known that an outer disciple of the Shiny Sect is actually a killer

of the Slaughtering Sect.

The killers of this organization are such good actors that no one can see through their tricks. They could be anyone, even those

whom we think we know!

This is one of the reasons that makes them extremely dangerous, ' Austin brooded.

"He was Rafe. He passed the test and becour disciple a year ago,"

Steward Noah replied.

"Hmm. | see. Looks like someone hired assassins of the Slaughtering Sect to murder our excellent disciples.

These killers of the Slaughtering Sect managed to sneak into our sect and pretended to be our disciples. All this was done to

assassinate our talented disciples.

| think that the other three top sects in the Dawning Kingdom have paid them.

We should investigate about all the disciples who joined us a year ago.

Find them and dispose all those who are from the Slaughtering Sect.

Hmm! | don't care who they are. Now that their hands are soaked with the blood of our disciples, they are going to pay the price,"

Elder Damian said coldly.

There was ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.

"Also make arrangements to protect the disciples on this mountain. It is likely that those killers will try to lay hands on them

again," he instructed.

Being the superior elder of the Shiny Sect, he was held with great prestige and respect among the other members of the sect. He

commanded a higher position than that of the leader of the Shiny Sect.

Steward Noah and other three elders followed his orders without a doubt or question in their minds.

"You all should be careful hereon," Elder Damian advised as he turned to the disciples of the FlHoly Land.

"Well done, Austin! You not only survived the killer's bid to assassinate you, but also took him out,"

he went on, looking at Austin with sheer appreciation.

The four senior members from the Shiny Sect and the disciples had their eyes on Austin. They were filled with astonishment at

Austin's act of accomplishment.

‘The killers from the Slaughtering Sect seldom fail in their missions.

Those who can survive their attack of assassination are incredibly powerful cultivators.

Austin lived through that, and even managed to put down the killer. That was amazing. Only a few people can do that, ' they

thought.

"I guess | was lucky!"

Austin responded with a grin, though he was embarrassed by the words of praise showered upon him.

"You all need to take care of yourself. Be extremely cautious," Elder Damian said to them.

Then, he left the mountain accompanied by Steward Noah and the three elders.

They had taken the corpses of the four FlHoly Land disciples and the killer from the Slaughtering Sect with them.

Austin and his companions quietly returned to their rooms.

They knew that soon Elder Damian would send strong cultivators there to secretly guard them.

Austin sat on his feet in the room. Every the recalled the incident when the black-robed man had tried to murder him, he felt

shocked and shivers ran down his spine.

‘The Slaughtering Scripture is really amazing. If | hadn't built the Spiritual Pot with omnipotent gas, | wouldn't have been able to

defend myself and take that assassin's life.

Are all the ancient scriptures as powerful as the Slaughtering Scripture?’

he wondered.

"You toldthat the Slaughtering Scripture is one of the ancient scriptures in the East Mainland.

Apart from the Slaughtering Scripture, what are other ancient scriptures here?"

Austin asked the FlEmperor.

"There are more than ten ancient scriptures in our East Mainland. Each old scripture records extremely powerful and secret martial

skills.

The holy lands and prominent clans have sancient scriptures, and sscriptures have been lost and gone.

Common cultivators stand no chance of getting those ancient scriptures.

According to my knowledge, each of the three holy lands and the three eminent clans has one ancient scripture,"

the FlEmperor went on.

"I see. The three holy lands also have ancient scriptures. So, | was wondering if our FlHoly Land has one too,"

Austin muttered.

"I've heard there was one ancient scripture in the FlHoly Land before it perished.

But after the FlHoly Land was destroyed overnight, that ancient scripture was gone.

Perhaps only the prominent figures of the FlHoly Land know whether people in your sect have learnt the secret skills

mentioned in the ancient scripture.

Each ancient scripture is a priceless treasure.

| think even if they have got that ancient scripture back, they will not make the mistake of letting others know.

Otherwise, all the cultivators in the East Mainland will try to steal it from the FlHoly Land,"

the FlEmperor expressed his opinion.

Austin nodded his head agreeing to the view of the FlEmperor.

‘Since the FlHoly Land is relatively weak, the leaders have no choice but to develop the sect in secret.

It's not easy to rebuild the sect and get it back on track so that it can be on par with the other three holy lands, ' Austin analyzed

the situation.

In the following days, things seemed to calm down.

Austin kept himself busy most of the time, cultivating in his quarters.

The killers from the Slaughtering Sect hadn't shown up.

Even the members of the Chu Union didn't cover and bother them anymore.

It was clear that the senior members of the Shiny Sect had started investigating the outer disciples.

The man in purple was a member of the Chu Union, so the leaders of the Shiny Sect had sent men to investigate the members of

the Chu Union first.

Therefore, the disciples who had joined the Chu Union had been busy dealing with the investigations.

Austin worked fervently on his spiritual sense in the room.

He took out those superior herbs which he had collected from the Secret Valley so that the spiritual tree could draw energy from

them.

With the superior herbs being used, the spiritual sense lake in Austin's Soul Sea expanded slowly.

Tticked by slowly.

Ten days passed, and the spiritual tree had absorbed the essence of about three hundred first-grade superior herbs.

Now the spiritual tree was about four meters tall.

On the other hand, the diameter of the spiritual sense lake widened up to a hundred meters.

Waves rose and fell in the lake of pure spiritual sense from tto time.

"lI have been able to enhance my spiritual sense a lot recently.

Now | guess | can fuse more omnipotent gas with my spiritual sense,"

Austin murmured feeling satisfied.

The Spiritual Pot was one of his best trump cards.

So, Austin planned to integrate more omnipotent gas with his spiritual sense to forge a more powerful Spiritual Pot.

Austin withdrew the spiritual tree.

Doing so, he released his spiritual sense and directed it into his elixir field in a bid to refine more omnipotent gas and make a more

powerful Spiritual Pot.

Like in most cases one needed to break the old to make the new, Austin too needed to shatter the Spiritual Pot first before making

a new one.

Only after doing that, he could refine another Spiritual Pot, which would be more powerful.
