The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 4928

It was not until the old man withdrew his hand that Austin felt a sense of relief as he regained his breath. He quickly got up and gasped heavily, catching air.

"You are too powerful, sir. I was about to explode back there because of the pressure you exuded!"

Austin panted. He clutched his chest, his heart beating loud and fast from the previous experience. The mere thought of what had just happened left a lingering fear in him. He thought he could die at any moment.

"Hahaha!

Don't fret, young man. You're quite exceptional. It's unusual for anyone to hold on for such a long time under my pressure. If it reassures you, I can guarantee you that only a few young people like you exist in the Absolute Space Sea,"

the old man comforted before he burst into wild laugher. He seemed to be pleased with Austin's performance.

"Hmm, interesting. Let me have a try. I want to see how long this young man can hold under my pressure,"

the third elder offered as he stepped forward, itching to test Austin's capacity.

"Sir, wait! Let me―"

Austin blurted out. He was yet to fully recover from the last one and he was now about to be subjected to another powerful pressure.

Before he could even process what was about to happen, the old man had already stretched out one of his fingers and pointed it in front of Austin's eyebrows, ignoring the young man's protests.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A horrifying spiritual energy swiftly rushed out of the elder's finger. The pressure poured into Austin's Soul Sea.

As a result, it started trembling violently―equivalent to an earthquake with a high magnitude.

Austin's spiritual soul was on high alert, considering that a foreign energy invaded his Soul Sea.

The secret weapons in his Soul Sea worked hard to resist the invasion, serving as boosters to his spiritual soul. Together, they fought against the spiritual energy coming from the elder's finger.

As his Soul Sea was being attacked violently, Austin started feeling uncomfortable. His whole body was trembling terribly, and his face turned pale, with sweat dripping down all over his body.

The force kept on pouring into his body with each passing second. As it did, Austin felt that his spiritual soul and Soul Sea faltering in the unwelcome presence―it was too intense! Cracks started to appear in them, as if they were about to explode anytime.

However, Austin knew that the old man had no intentions to kill him. He was just testing how long Austin could endure.

Therefore, Austin gritted his teeth and tried hard to hold on despite his body's outcries.

He unleashed all his spiritual energy to fight back.

He even added his mind power to the mix just to resist the spiritual energy.

The longer he held on, the more Austin felt distressed and weakened. At one point, he even felt like he was about to lose consciousness. He was getting dizzy.

If things went on like this, he was sure that his Soul Sea and spiritual soul might explode.

After a long time,

the moment before Austin was about to collapse, the old man suddenly withdrew his finger and took back his spiritual energy.

Austin instantly collapsed on the ground.

As he relaxed his physique, he felt like he unloaded the burden of carrying millions of pounds.

He kept panting, catching his breath.

"You are indeed powerful, young man.

The spiritual energy I exerted just now was intense. Even a level-nine governing god would have shattered into pieces under such pressure. But you actually can withstand it for such a long time. I have to say that you are really outstanding,"

the old man remarked happily as he gave Austin a nod of approval. Apparently, he was quite satisfied with his performance, too.

By now, all three elders had tested Austin one after another, and all of them were pleased with his endurance and his power.

"I didn't expect that we would have such an excellent successor like you in the reincarnation race,"

one of the elders commented, looking very gratified.

"You guys did great, too. Each one of you is a rare young talent. Now that we have so many talented successors like you, it will be much more hopeful for the reincarnation race to rise again in the future,"

another elder commended as he looked at the leader of the Reincarnation Palace, Tanya, and the rest of their group.

He knew that these young people were all successors of the reincarnation race. He had to give credit to others' hard work, too, since Austin was not the only successor their race had. After all, all of them did promising performances―it was right and just to compliment them.

"Thank you, sir! Austin is the best and strongest among us all,"

Tanya humbly replied. Although she was grateful, she understood what the old man was trying to do by acknowledging them. However, as a level-headed woman that she was, she did not feel jealous at all.

"That's right, sir.

Austin is the leader of our group.
