"All right. Let's get out of here."
Austin stood up after finishing his chat with his family.
Now that he had found them, he had already fulfilled one of his wishes.
However, there were still a lot of things that he needed to do to accomplish all his tasks.
As he waved his sleeve, he lifted his parents and brother in the air so that they could proceed easier and faster.
However, just as before they left, Austin noticed something strange.
"What's that sound? Is it coming from that direction?"
Austin raised his head and looked into the depths of the deserted area.
From there, he perceived a tremendous Buddhist power, seething between heaven and earth. This energy continuously fluctuated with violent force. It was so intimidating and overwhelming that the affected would have the desire to kneel and worship before it.
"I've never seen such an enormous Buddhist power before!"
Austin had achieved some comprehension of the law of Buddhism and also practiced several omnipotent skills related to it. But despite all of that, he was still stunned as he felt the inconceivably strong Buddhist power spreading out from the depths of the deserted area.
Austin's eyes narrowed as his curiosity heightened. He looked intently into the direction where the power was coming from, trying to perceive everything that was hidden in that area.
Then, he sensed a billowing fluctuation of the Buddhist power, which was surging with great momentum.
Additionally, he also noticed that there were several ancient mountains in that same direction, stretching towards the horizon. Since he was already here, he didn't want to waste the opportunity of checking these things out.
As he stared past into the mountains, the scene gave him the feeling that he returned to ancient times where savageness was still very common.
"Are you hearing that too? We've heard it a lot of times. After we had escaped here, we originally intended to go further ahead. However, we clearly felt that there is an incredible pressure from that direction. It was so eerie that the more we went further, the more difficult it felt to move forward. Moreover, we could hear those monks chanting from time to time.
The three of us had been constantly looking around all the time, but we haven't seen any monks. It was so strange that we didn't dare go any further.
We started wondering if what we were hearing were actually ghosts,"
Austin's mother described what they experienced.
"It's probably not a ghost, mom.
The chants that you have been hearing are actually laws of Buddhism that were left here.
In the past, there must have been a pretty powerful monk who often chanted Buddhist scriptures in this land. His dedication must have been powerful and impressive that his chanting was embedded deep into the environment here. Thus, until now, those words echo every now and then,"
Austin explained in detail what those strange noises really were.
He was now a divine god, so he already knew all kinds of laws of supreme enlightenment in the world.
No matter how bizarre something was, he could now easily see and understand these things at a glance.
"Really? That's amazing then!"
The three were surprised as Austin told them the truth behind those strange noises.
"Why don't we go into that deserted area to see which monk had practiced and meditated in that place?"
With that, Austin began leading his family towards the depths of the deserted area.
"But Austin, it must be dangerous ahead.
Besides, you just killed a lot of people from the Novel Court. I'm sure that the headquarters of the Novel Court will send more of their people once they received this news.
Why don't we go back to the temple of the mountain god and hide there for the time being?"
Austin's mother persuaded him out of concern.
"Mom, relax. You don't have to worry too much. Currently, no one on Earth is capable enough to beat me or scare me in any way.
As for the guys from the Novel Court, it would be actually better if they appeared in front of me so that I would not waste my time finding them one by one.
Don't be afraid now. Let's just go ahead and have a look,"
Austin assured them with a smile.
"Well, your son is correct. He's a divine god now. He can protect us from everything, so we shouldn't be afraid of anything,"
Clement said as he talked some sense to his wife.
As they continued discussing, they had already started entering the depths of the deserted area under Austin's leadership. They had been talking for a while, so they had no idea how far they had already gone.
Looking around the area, all they could see were the towering mountains that were at least hundreds of thousands of feet high. They stood shoulder to shoulder and soared into the vast sky. On the surface of the mountains, thick and tall trees covered them that almost blocked the sunshine. The wild creatures inhabiting the forest used this to their advantage to easily hunt their prey in the dark. Eagles could be seen soaring in the sky, and the roar of beasts could be heard from within the depths of the forests.
As they went deeper, they started hearing several roars from different creatures lurking around. They all sounded intimidating as if telling the outsiders to step out of their territory
Seeing their surroundings, they couldn't help but compare it with the prehistoric times.
'I didn't know that such a place exists here on Earth.
Well, it must be a secret realm that was left behind from the ancient times, '
Austin thought to himself.
