Austin got his chance to escape when he noticed that the Chief Elder and Steward Meng got hurt.
If the two were surely in a good state, and their vital energy was at the peak, it would be a lot more
difficult for Austin to escape. The Chief Elder and Steward Meng were two Mysterious Realm masters.
Steward Meng bit his lip. Then he selected several Earth Realm cultivators from the twenty-odd
Medicine Sect disciples and chased after Austin. They started the hunt as soon as they were picked.
On the other hand, the Chief Elder led the rest of the disciples and went deeper into the cave.
Austin was over two hundred meters far from the place. All of a sudden, his spiritual sense power told
him that the people from the Medicine Sect were coming after him.
He sensed that Steward Meng led the team. Austin began to think of ways to get out of danger.
Moreover, Steward Meng enabled his bodily movement skill and tried to chase Austin. He took a lot of
medicinal pills and ran at his full speed. Since Meng was a steward of the Medicine Sect, he always
took a lot of medicines and pills to heal wounds and recover vital energy in case of emergencies.
It seemed that the people from the Medicine Sect wouldn't let him go easily. Catching Austin would give
their satisfaction.
But Austin understood them. The group was the one who desperately fought the diabolic beasts yet
Austin seemed to be the one who got the benefits.
It was the powerful crystal they were looking for. Austin took it at the Cloud Cave when he was still an
illusion of Walker.
Quickly, he put the Wind-commanding Skill into full play and ran as fast as he could. He was as fast as
a black light traveling through an open space. After a short while, he came to the front hall that was
near the entrance of the cave.
He was surprised when he noticed that the enhancement of his cultivation base in vital energy would
affect the improvement of his speed.
As of the moment, he could cross a span of 30 meters in just a stride.
It proved that all martial skills were greatly affected by the upgrade of one's cultivation base. Wind-
commanding Skill was a bodily movement skill and was not an exception.
"Austin is so fast! He must have mastered a kind of top-grade bodily movement skill!"
Steward Meng was injured but that didn't affect his senses as a Mysterious Realm master. He used his
extraordinary bodily movement skill and rushed toward the entrance of the cave to chase Austin.
But he was left dumbfounded when he realized that Austin's bodily movement skill was a lot better than
what he had. It was clear that Austin who was just in front of him became more distant and way faster
than him.
It was a shame that a mysterious realm warrior would have failed to catch an Earth Realm warrior.
Steward Meng's face turned red in anger. He gritted his teeth, stiffened his neck and controlled all the
vital energy in his body. As the surging vital energy gathered around his feet, he whirled like a
hurricane. Stones and dust were banished in the air as he passed by.
At the same time, Austin was already at the slabstone square outside the entrance. Austin frowned as
he witnessed a thick fog surrounding the slabstone square.
He gently raised his head, only to find out that the place was still locked within the fog. Austin knew that
the slabstone square was a platform that hung above the cliff, and the cliff was the only place where he
could find a way out.
As far as he knew, Mysterious Realm warriors were the only ones who had the ability to fly. Even
though Austin was at the premium stage of Earth Realm, it was still beyond his ability to get himself
onto the cliff.
Moreover, Steward Meng and his men were slowly approaching. Even though Steward Meng got hurt,
he was still a Mysterious Realm master and a powerful person. Plus, there were several Earth Realm
masters following him. Austin wanted to avoid having a fight with them as much as he could.
Austin knew that the Medicine Sect contributed a lot to his success of obtaining the powerful crystal. He
smiled when he remembered this.
Austin wouldn't be able to break the array on the slabstone square and beat two level six diabolic
beasts if he came just by himself.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Something seemed to catch his attention. Just like a black light,
he rushed toward the edge of the slabstone square.
Within a few seconds, he entered into the thick fog surrounding the square. He could barely see a thing
inside, but with the help of his spiritual sense power, he was able to sense clearly everything around
him. As he expected, he saw jagged rocks in bizarre shapes which were moistened by the fog. The
smooth slope appeared to be the cliff of the mountain.
At the sight of the cliff, Austin summoned one of his weapons. He closed his eyes and began to control
his power. When he opened his eyes, the Twin Shadow Blades popped out in a form of black light and
red light.
Both of the blades rushed forward.
The red dagger and black dagger soon hit the cliff, with one above the other. Austin leaped into the air
and stepped on the red dagger below. Then he lifted himself upward and stood on the black dagger
above. He used the Twin Shadow Blades since he did not have the capability to fly.
"Yes! It worked," Austin said in an excited voice.
He increased his speed and climbed up. At the same time, the daggers moved upward as they were
controlled by Austin's mind. Austin was amazed by his act!
"Wow. I never thought this would be possible," Austin said to himself.
"Damn it! Where has the brat gone?" At this moment, Steward Meng already reached the slab stone
square, but Austin was nowhere to be found.
He used his spiritual sense power to detect Austin. It faintly sensed a black shadow rapidly going
upward the cliff.
Steward Meng's spiritual sense power could reach the distance within the scope of 200 meters. It just
took him seconds to find the trace of Austin.
After several minutes, some Medicine Sect disciples who were at the Earth Realm rushed out of the
cave and joined Steward Meng on the slab stone square.
"Steward Meng, shall we continue?" one of the disciples asked.
"Austin stayed in the Cloud Cave for so long. He surely got something. We have put so much effort just
to get this far. No way that brat is taking advantage of our hard work.
One of you will return to notify the Chief Elder about the situation here, and the rest will accompany me
to go after that man." Steward Meng replied.
At this time, with a flash of a black light, Austin already reached the ground that was above the cliff.
"Who would think that there is a cave hidden beneath?" Austin couldn't help but wonder when he
looked down at the thick fog.
Before he finished wondering, he sensed that some people were approaching him from below. 'It
seemed that the warriors of the Medicine Sect would not give up easily, ' he told himself.
Austin wasted no time. He immediately used his Wind-commanding Skill and rushed to Peace Town at
full speed. He could not afford to be caught by his enemies.
