The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1638

The elder let out a loud scream.

His right hand that was in Austin's elixir field was fading away rapidly because of the power of the Fire Stela.

The elder lost his arm within a second.

Everyone present watched in horror as the elder slowly lost his arm. They had recovered from their shock when the Fire Stela came out of Austin's head.

Like a scorching sun, it levitated in mid-air, releasing the overwhelming repressive power.

The elder who had lost his arm panicked at the sight of the Fire Stela. Unable to contain his fear, he got up on his feet and ran away screaming.

"Brat, you surprised me. It's great that you hold such a masculine treasure.

These slaves died thousands of years ago. What we see now are just their souls.

In fact, those three slaves are ghosts, and masculine treasures are their worst enemy and biggest fear.

Now open the coffin and check what is inside,"

the stall owner who had reached Austin in a flash instructed  Austin through his spiritual sense.

"Why didn't you help me when I almost died at the hands of that slave?

Now you're being nice because you realized that I have an amazing treasure," Austin replied and stared at the man angrily.

The horrible thought that he barely escaped death made his hair stand on end.

'Luckily that elder touched the Fire Stela in my elixir field by mistake and was terrified by its power. Otherwise, I would be at the death's door by now, ' Austin thought.

Since the Fire Stela entered Austin's elixir field, it remained floating inside him. It was difficult for Austin to control it, and he could not command it to fight his enemies. For some reason, the Fire Stela would not show up unless Austin's life was in danger.

"Come on, brat, don't be mad. Please try to understand, that elder is so powerful. I am no match for him. If I made a move to defend you, he could have turned against me. There was no way I could have defended myself against him.

Anyway, without me, you will not be standing here right now.

Just be grateful; you are here and you're alive. We're a team now. You can't leave me behind,"

the old man reasoned.

Austin thought about it and realized that what he said was true.

"All right. Let's go!" Austin agreed.

The Fire Stela lingered over his head. He looked up and reflected upon its power

'The Fire Stela is not under my control. It seems to have a life of its own and only releases power on certain situations. Now that it has decided to stay around, I should use it in full. Once it gets back to my elixir field, I can't summon it to protect me.'

Austin went for it and dashed towards the coffin, reaching it in just a few seconds. The Fire Stela had remained floating above his head.

A blast of air suddenly surrounded the three slaves standing beside the coffin. An invisible force seemed to push them backward as the power released by the Fire Stela hit them. Terrified, the three of them ran away from Austin and reached the verge of the platform instantly.

Austin smashed the lid of the coffin with his hand. The old man rushed to his side and gazed at the coffin.

The scene that unfolded before their eyes made them tremble with fear.

The coffin was brimming with fresh blood, and the stench filled the surrounding air. The smell was so horrid that Austin and his companion had to step back and covered their noses with their hands.

There was no dead body in the pool of blood. Instead, there were some items floating on the surface.

A black shroud was soaked in blood.

Beside it was an old white sword. Power seemed to emanate from the sword as it floated in the pool of blood.

There was also a wooden fish used by monks and a stick used to beat the wooden fish. The wooden fish appeared to be broken. Obviously it had been bitten by ants.

'What's going on?

Where is Purple Immortal's dead body?'

Austin and the old man wondered in utter confusion.

Great masters like Purple Immortal who had reached the Immortal Transforming Realm were no longer mortals. Even though they perished hundreds of thousands of years ago, their bodies would never decompose like the body of an ordinary human
