You're talking nonsense, silly girl, exclaimed Mindy.
Violet's mock made her blush in embarrassment. She had chased after the woman because she
wanted to teach her a lesson. It was unexpected though they ended up laughing with each other just
some seconds after the terrifying situation.
"Can't you be serious? We still have so many brigands to deal with," interrupted Austin.
Hearing those words, Violet chuckled and said, "Your Four-sided and Eight Trigrams Array are good
enough to handle them, Austin. Thus, Mindy and I are just going to stand here and watch you."
She then hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand.
The atmosphere inside the Four-sided Trigrams Array was a bit better now. The surviving brigands who
were panicking earlier finally calmed down after Miller's repeated orders.
With his lead, they rushed forward with both caution and fear as they blindly wielded their weapons
randomly.
Seeing that reaction from the group made Austin smile coldly.
He whispered, "Heaven Trigram, start!"
Immediately, a white column of energy was shot from the northwest side of the sky. It was as wide as a
bowl and was enveloped with sizzling vital energy. It tore through the air with a harsh grating sound!
That column of energy traveled extremely fast that it already hit the first five brigands standing ahead of
their group even before they knew what happened.
The brigands that they were dealing with were fantastic at robbing and killing. Moreover, they had
already gathered a lot of experiences in battlefields. It was just that their cultivation of vital energy was
at the fifth or sixth level of Energy Gathering Realm. Thus, They were even worse than those disciples
from the Flaming Sun Valley which was headed by Raymond. Sure enough, they couldn't survive the
attacks of this array.
Torn parts of bodies scattered everywhere after the attack. The five brigands who were hit by the
energy seemed to have been hit by lightning instead. Their broken legs and arms flew to the air. All of
them were dead on the spot.
Those brigands who were summoned by Miller tried their best to behave, calm down, and break the
array.
However, they started panicking again upon seeing what happened to the five brigands before them.
All of them quickly stepped back as they were afraid of being hit and killed by the energy column.
Even Miller was shocked. It was only then that he realized how bad their situation was. There was
definitely no one who could survive that attack from the energy column!
He would be screaming if he could. However, being the leader of those brigands, he knew that he
wasn't allowed to panic again.
"Calm down. Follow me and I can save you," shouted Miller. He then turned around and ran in the
opposite direction. Those brigands who saw this followed their leader and fled.
Austin was holding the main flag in his hand as he stood outside. He could see the movements of the
brigands clearly.
Any warrior who hadn't reached the medium stage of Earth Realm wouldn't have the ability to break the
array. Unfortunately, even Miller, who was the leader and the best martial arts practitioner of those
brigands, hadn't broken through the preliminary stage of the Earth Realm yet. Thus, whatever they did,
they did it in vain.
It was then that Austin started to execute all kinds of attacks inside the array. Miserable cries of those
brigands instantly filled the whole place. They were begging for mercy.
The air started to smell like blood, tangy and with a bit of metal scent. Shredded flesh, broken arms,
and amputated legs matted the cold ground. Puddles of blood formed on the floor too.
Miller was badly hurt by that time. He was about to be attacked by two energy columns both from the
front and behind. It seemed that he had reached the end of his line after all his vital energy was
consumed. Finally, he was caught by the energy column with nowhere else to go.
The first energy column hit his chest while the second energy column hit his back. Those two columns
which were made up of violent vital energy force collided inside his body.
Bang!
An ear-splitting noise was heard. Miller's body had exploded like a balloon. His entire body was literally
shredded to pieces.
All other brigands in that place were also killed. They had all been wiped off within just seconds.
Austin, on the other hand, began collecting his array flags after making sure that all the bad guys were
dead.
There were over two hundred dead bodies lying on the ground of that crossing. The soil was flooded
with blood and the unpleasant smell was unimaginable.
None of the cadavers could be distinguished anymore as most of them were torn and shredded to very
small pieces.
Mindy and Violet were both stunned and pale while standing motionlessly. What they saw was like a
preview of hell. They both bet that they wouldn't survive such an attack too if they were trapped inside
that array.
After swallowing hard, they both looked at Austin with admiration. Who would have thought that the
cold and seemingly weak Austin could actually do such a stunt?
Those brigands couldn't even hurt Austin!
...... ...... ......
Austin's eyes suddenly sparked with excitement as he gave the battlefield an once-over He quickened
his steps and picked a Space Ring up from the stinking dead bodies.
It was from Miller's remains. It was a surprise that Miller, a warrior from the Earth Realm, possessed
such a ring.
Austin measured it carefully and estimated that it had a space of about ten cubic meters. Moreover,
there were about one million vital energy crystals within it and all kinds of drugs as well.
Austin thought that Miller, as a leader of the brigands, must have accumulated great wealth by robbing
and killing. Being a brigand was a surefire way to make money after all.
Austin took about half of the million vital energy crystals from Miller's space ring. He then put them
inside his.
Then, he turned to Mindy, giving her the rest of the vital energy crystals and drugs.
Most of those drugs were cheap. Nonetheless, it included Energy-boosting Elixir which was precious to
warriors of Energy Gathering Realm. It was just that they were useless to Austin since he needed
something more potent.
Even the Energy-prevailing Elixir was also of no use to him.
However, the Zhang Clan was dependent on Mindy to recover their strength. Thus, those drugs and
vital energy crystals might be vital to her.
Dumbfounded, Mindy took the Space Ring.
She had just reached the preliminary stage of Earth Realm not so long ago.
She didn't have a space ring yet since her cultivation of martial arts was only at the sixth level of
Energy Gathering Realm. She immediately knew about the ring's spacious room, vital energy crystals,
and drugs as soon as she held it.
She just heard about the Space Ring before. Holding it in her hand was extremely different and
overwhelming. She measured it carefully and then gasped with admiration at the awesomeness of this
treasure.
