The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 451

After walking for a while in the Fire Valley, Austin felt something amiss.

Suddenly, an endless number of flames appeared and transformed into fire beasts in various shapes and sizes.

As he saw them, Austin's blood went cold.

It wasn't that Austin had walked into a blind alley. Before coming here, Iris had briefly told him about this place.

Iris had told him that a grand master of her in the Pure Dream Convent had gone about a thousand meters into the valley a hundred years ago. In that distance, she had encountered only a few dozens of fire beasts.

Austin wondered why there was an increase. The number he saw was far too many.

And that too, when he had just walked about seven hundred meters into the valley. He had a hunch that about more than a thousand fire beasts might be lurking further deeper into the place.

Gazing at the fire beasts, he sensed that a number of them had the adeptness of a level five demonic beast.

'Damn it! It seems after a hundred years, the number of fire beasts in the valley has increased tremendously. This is not at all what Iris' grand master said, ' he thought.

But this was no time for rumination. The fire beasts hissed and flared at Austin as he got surrounded by them on all sides.

Ready for combat, Austin began to probe all the fire beasts with his spiritual sense.

Austin was in luck. Thankfully, most fire beasts, although many in number, only had a third or fourth level demonic beast competence. In fact, level four was truly a rarity among them.

To draw a comparison, a level three demonic beast's capabilities were similar to a level eight or nine of the Energy Gathering Realm of a human. The prowess of a level four demonic beast was like of a human's at the preliminary stage of the Earth Realm, and a level five demonic beast's competence could be translated as a medium or premium stage of the Earth Realm of a human.

It wasn't that Austin wasn't shaken up but knowing that he stood a chance against these beasts helped him relax. All it would take to go through the valley was enough vital energy. And anticipating dangers such as this, he had stored a huge amount in his vital energy stone located in his belly.

"Master, do you need my help?"

Violet's voice rang out in his mind.

When he entered the Mysterious Nether World, Austin had brought Violet's Illusion Bead with him. Violet and the gnome were all hid there.

To avoid attracting attention, Austin hadn't asked Violet to show up till now.

In the Prime Martial World, human and demonic beasts were irreconcilable, and they would kill each other when they met.

Although Violet was in the Illusion Bead, she too could feel the outside world with her spiritual sense.

And of course, she got to know that Austin was surrounded by countless fire beasts, which was why she reached out to him, ready to come out from the Illusion Bead to help any minute.

"That isn't necessary, Violet. Although there are a lot of fire beasts, they are just at level three or four in competence. I know I can beat them.

Also, I think that there are a huge number of fire beasts lurking around. I have just walked seven or eight hundred meters into the valley and I met this many. I'm sure there will be more of them with higher competence when we go deeper.

According to ancient wisdom, the fire beasts have fire spirit stones in their bodies which contain all of their primary masculine energy. And these stones will be very useful for my practice of the Golden Sun Scripture.

My plan is to explore the fire valley and collect more of these valuable fire spirit stones.

The whole valley was aflame, burning all year round, which could only mean that there were innumerable fire beasts to keep the valley red-hot.

Iris had said that in the Mysterious Nether World, if you ever found a diabolic beast, it was there to protect a precious resource. I wonder what all treasures were buried deep in the fire valley. Going by the epochs-old legend that surrounded the fire valley, I am guessing there must be very many.

Let's see, Violet, how much further I make way into the valley. Who knows how far I will reach.

Anyway, I do want to try."

As Austin deliberated with Violet telepathically, the fire beasts around him initiated an attack. The flames in the shape of a tiger, a wolf, a lion, a snake, and a bird including a mysterious creature that Austin had never seen before began to attack him. Some of them shot fire balls at him while fire arrows too darted towards him.

Austin roared and took out a sacred sword from his Space Ring. He summoned all of his vital energy force and used the Illusory Swordsmanship. Nearly a hundred beams of sword radiance immediately lit up the place.

Each beam of sword radiance looked ever so brilliant carrying level one sword potential, making them a highly imposing weapon.

Wham! Austin's Illustrious Sword cut through the air slaying a hundred fire beasts with just a single beam. Cleaved into pieces, they collapsed within seconds, and left a hundred fire spirit stones of different sizes that plopped on the ground with a dull thud. Some the size of a thumb, and some as big as a pigeon's egg caught Austin's eye.

Each fire spirit stone was sizzling with heat of the primary masculine energy they held.

At least one of Austin's goals was getting accomplished. He had set out for the journey to collect these stones and finally, he had been able to get some.

The remaining fire beasts were undeterred and they launched a fresh attack.
