Chapter 114 Two Dogs Strive For A Bone And A Third Runs Away With It
“Violet, can you hear me?’
At this point, Austin was reminded of his helping hand. He called Violetin his mind with his spiritual power.
I'm here, Master. I've been cultivating my energies. Why didn't you callme earlier?’
Violet's voice came from the Illusion Bead. She seemed to have someidea of what was going on outside. She then continued, “These fourcultivators are very powerful. One of them is at the preliminary stage ofEarth Realm, and the other three are medium. I am clearly no match forthem. Even if I used my illusion skills, I could only bewitch them for awhile, but it wouldn't buy you too much time. Considering ourcomprehensive strength, it's only wishful thinking to defeat them.’Violet estimated the situation and gave her impression of the situationto Austin.
“We don't have to defeat them. We only need to escape from them.And all you must do is buy me some time,’ said Austin in return.
'I can confuse them for a few seconds. But, Master, never underestimatethe cultivators at the medium stage of Earth Realm. They can use theirenergy to form an avatar to attack the enemy from miles away. Theyare capable of things that you can't even think of, *
said Violet with extreme worry.
Austin reasoned, “The worst that can happen to me here is death. If Iwant to survive, we must take the risk. Can you cut off this rope on myfeet? The Ghost Shadow Rope?'
"Yes, I can, Master, * Violet gave a positive answer.
“Good. I will distract them with Spiritual Sense Flying Needles, while youcut the rope off my feet and confuse them with illusion skills. Then we'llflee at the highest speed. Oh, I almost forgot. Are you able to follow myspeed?’
Austin suddenly thought of Violet's safety problems.
Violet felt very grateful and her heart warmed up by Austin's wordsbecause her master treated her so nicely. She answered, 'Don't worry,Master. Nine tail demon foxes like me are good at illusion skills and wemove very quickly. Although I am no match for these four men, I amable to escape them.’
“Well, then, it's settled! Let's wait for that one to move a little closer.’Austin felt assured and started to discuss with Violet about the routesto escape.
"Hey you, asshole! I initially planned to give you a quick merciful death,but since you dared to use your stupid bodily movement skill to escape,you'll face the wrath of a cultivator at the Earth Realm! I will skin youalive then I'll feed you to my dogs!"
roared Nigel as he pulled Austin towards him.
Suddenly, Austin moved. He darted a Spiritual Sense Flying Needletowards Nigel, wringing it in his brain that caused great pain in his soul.As Austin planned, a sudden pain penetrated Nigel. A shiver ran downhis spine as he felt the thing breaking his mind. His heart sunk as hetried to force it out.
As he stumbled in pain, his killing intent disintegrated.
Seeing him stepping back, Austin darted three more Spiritual SenseFlying Needles to attack the other three cultivators.
In no time, all four of them looked horrified, each with a twinge of painin his head.
Austin immediately called Violet with his spiritual sense, “Violet, help mecut off the Ghost Shadow Rope!
With that, a delicate and concentrated mess of vital energy came out ofhis space ring, targeted at the energy rope on Austin's heels, andstarted cutting it.
Austin quietly brought out his Twin Shadow Blades. He decided toattack the four men with the Twin Shadow Blades as soon as Violet cutoff the Ghost Shadow Rope to buy some time to escape.
At this time, a voice shouted out, "That's the spiritual sense attack! Thisbrat knows to use spiritual sense!”
It was Elton's voice.
And with his words, the other three realized it, too.
The four of them now realized what the sharp pain in their brain was.But since they were all experienced and knowledgeable cultivators, theyexactly knew how to calm themselves and reverse the effect of theattack.
But one question haunted them. The boy before them was merely acultivator at the seventh level of Energy Gathering Realm. How could hemanage to attack them with his spiritual sense power? It was a knownfact that only the Mysterious Realm cultivators could have such power.And spiritual sense attack was a distinguishing sign that one hadreached Mysterious Realm!
Was it possible that this boy was a cultivator at the Mysterious Realm,but only hiding his true strength for unknown reasons?
The idea crossed their mind at the same time, but they immediatelydismissed it. If this boy was indeed a master cultivator at the stage ofMysterious Realm, how could he be trapped by the Ghost ShadowRope?
He could've killed the four of them by simply raising his hand. Whywould he let himself be caught?
The only sensible reason that came to their mind was that the boy wasborn with some special talents and knew how to use spiritual senseinnately.
"You miserable piece of shit! It's surprising that you have such greatpower! But don't think you can escape us with that! I can kill you like anant!"
Nigel cursed with anger. He closed his hands and countless vital energyconcentrated on his palms. In an instant, the violent force startedpressing rapidly on all sides.
Under Nigel's strength, the sand, stone, dust, dead branches, andwithered leaves around them immediately formed a long spiralingdragon, circling endlessly around his body.
"Ghost Cutting Skill!"
Nigel announced the name of his attack.
Austin's heart sunk the moment he sensed Nigel's powerful attack.Fortunately, his feet were set free. The Ghost Shadow Rope was finallychopped off by Violet.
Austin quickly darted another Spiritual Sense Flying Needle into Nigel'sbrain. Then he connected his mind to the Twin Shadow Blades andpoised for attack.
At the same time, he called for Violet, "Violet, prepare to attack.’Suddenly, a voice called for a halt.
"Nigel, stop!"
Lyle commanded suddenly.
“What did he just say?"
Everyone was dumbstruck, including Austin. They all wondered why Lylestopped Nigel.
"Lyle, what the hell? Why are you taking his side?"
Nigel paused, turning his head to Lyle to ask.
Lyle tipped Nigel with a wink. Then he grinned, walking towards Austin,saying, "Young man, I see you've mastered a very advanced bodilymovement skill. Also, your will power is very strong. You can usespiritual sense to attack your enemies, can't you?"
Austin warily smelled something fishy. He guessed Lyle had lowered hisguard.
"Yes, indeed. You seem very observant,” Austin answered, glancing himfrom head to toe.
Lyle seemed very happy as he continued, "No wonder you have theguts to enter this dangerous zone filled with level-three diabolic beasts.You're talented with such two secret weapons! You're a good man!"Nigel was completely bewildered by Lyle's words. He then asked,"What's this bullshit, Lyle? Why are you talking to him? Let me kill himso we can continue with our journey!"
"Nigel, please wait a moment. I have something to ask him," said Lylewith a grin.
Nigel knew that Lyle was the brain trust of them four. He grunted indiscontent but stepped back when asked.
Smiling, Lyle continued, "Young man, rest assured that we will neverhurt you. We are very friendly to talented cultivators like you, and wewant to present you a gift to show our sincerity. Please wait here for amoment. I will talk some reasons into my pals.”
"Really? You'll let me go? And you will give me a precious present?That's so kind of you!"
Austin pretentiously said. He also faked a relieved tone.
But he was fully aware of what Lyle was planning to.
Austin's spiritual sense attacks were intangible and unpredictable. Itwas difficult to guard against and impossible to dodge from. It was thebest skill to attack and disturb the enemies.
It could be the best skill to use in their combat with Scott. The onlyreason Lyle was befriending him was that he wanted Austin to aid themin the combat. When they attacked Scott, he wanted Austin to helpdisturb Scott's mind.
In battles between the master cultivators, even the slight negligencecould lead to fatal consequences. And if Scott was distracted, theywould have a great chance to win.
Austin sneered inside and decided to wait and see.
He then told Violet, “Violet, wait for my signal. Let's see what they'll do.’Austin was also coveting the loots they mentioned. The collectionincluded a dozen of medium-grade spiritual weapons, one top-gradespiritual weapon, a skill book of seventh grade martial arts skill, and ahundred thousand or more vital energy crystals.
When he had heard them talking about that powerful cultivator namedScott and his friend Barbara, he knew he was no match for them nor toloot the treasure from them.
But now he had the opportunity. If these four men were to hunt Scottand fight him for the treasures, it would be difficult to tell who wouldscore a success.
And if both sides sank, he might gain some benefit from the result. Asan old saying went, "Two dogs strive for a bone, and a third runs awaywith it."
I'd better take the risk. Anyway, I don't think I can escape from themanymore. I've already used my spiritual sense attack on them. And if Iattack them again, they would certainly be prepared.
Now, it would be better for me to follow them to Scott. Maybe, I canget my hands on that exciting treasure. Like always, opportunities comefrom danger.’
Austin had always been brave, rational and consistent. And afterweighing his options, he had made his decision.
