The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 347

Someone moved swiftly like lightning on the mountainous road that led to the imperial capital city.

That person was Austin.

It had been a day since he parted ways with the two young ladies who traveled along the main road.

The young warrior chose to walk down the narrow country road. He and the ladies were headed towards the same destination but were on different paths that did not overlap.

To determine his progress, Austin consulted someone and learned that at that point, he was neither near nor far from the imperial capital city.

If he walked at his regular pace, it would take ten days to reach the imperial capital city.

But the young fighter was not in a hurry to reach the city. Besides, the long journey gave him the opportunity to cultivate his Wind-commanding Skill.

Previously, Austin spent dozens of days solely to understand this skill. Now, he was able to stride forward and reach a distance of 100 meters. In battles, a walking speed at this rate gave Austin a considerable advantage.

Still, this walking speed was far below the maximum speed that one could realize by cultivating the Wind-commanding Skill. Deep inside, it was clear to Austin that it was possible for him to reach 200 or even 300 meters with one stride as long as he mastered the last two steps of this skill.

On this mountainous road, nothing but a person galloping like a steed was seen moving. He was walking so fast that it seemed as if he was flying. As Austin practiced, the only things left in his wake were swirls of dust and intermittent shadows.

Many times, some countryside villagers suddenly felt a figure flashing past them while they walked the fields. That blur of movement often had them thinking there was something wrong with their vision.

But by the time they finished rubbing their eyes to check if they were hallucinating, the vision had already disappeared.

Some of the villagers were frightened by this because they thought a ghost appeared to them during the daytime.

After cultivating the Wind-commanding Skill for three days, Austin discovered that he was able to move a little faster. Now, he could stride forward for 110 meters.

Smiling, Austin thought, 'This is a great opportunity for me to practice the Wind-commanding Skill as I make my way to the imperial capital city.'. . . .

But as Austin pondered on his cultivation of the Wind-commanding Skill, he suddenly felt something prickly down his back!

It was an uncomfortable sensation.

The feeling was like a sharp blade resting firmly on his back.

Immediately, Austin harnessed his power of spiritual sense to search what caused the sensation. He saw a pair of eyes some 500 meters ahead of him.

The eyes were ice cold and gleamed with a different blade intent.

They looked very astute. And chilly. Tyranny flashed in them. And cruelty was palpable. The owner was bloodthirsty!

There stood a young man wrapped in a black cloak.

He stood on the mountainous road in silence, as if he had become part of the surroundings.
