The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 181 Arriving At The Valley

In high spirits, 35 outer disciples stood in the courtyard, staringhopefully at Austin.

Austin was the most popular and the most prominent man among theouter disciples recently. Rumor had it that he would reclaim the title of"No. 1 outer disciple.”

People always admired the strong and powerful. Being around Austinhad them in total awe and adoration.

Meanwhile, for Austin, seeing his followers eager to serve him got hisadrenaline pumping.

He delivered a speech before all of them, after they had declared theirloyalty to him. He urged them to focus on cultivating their vital energy,and moreover, to always stay together. Austin believed that unitymeant strength, and focusing more on the quality of his followersrather than the quantity was more crucial to him. This way, he would beable to focus on helping them cultivate their skills and strengths.

On that day too, he took out a large number of vital energy crystals,and gave each of them 1, 000, making him spend 35, 000 vital energycrystals in total.

He had more than 300, 000 vital energy crystals in his Space Ring, andoffering 35, 000 wouldn't hurt his fortune.

But to the outer disciples, it was already a large sum of money—considering their current status and level.

Everyone was thrilled to receive 1, 000 vital energy crystals, thankfulthat they followed the right leader.

Austin, however, accepted them as his followers on the spur of themoment. It was a quick judgment on his part. He was not ready tospend most of his time with them, as he was used to only having Evanaround and his pet, Violet.

So he chose two of the most intelligent and capable outer disciples andhad them manage the team on his behalf.

The two chosen team leaders were Donald Lei and Curtis Zhang. Theywere at level 6 of Energy Gathering Realm and both had excellentcommunication skills too.

Austin asked Donald and Curtis to stay while he dismissed the others.He gave each of them an extra 1, 000 vital energy crystals as a rewardand urged them to discipline the team for him. ....

After he was done, Austin went back to his cultivation room and beganto practice Golden Sun Scripture.

He and Mindy would set off to the Mysterious Ancient Well tomorrow.According to her, it was a dangerous place, and as such, he needed tobe fully prepared.

Early the next morning, when Austin arrived at the mountain pass ofSun Sect, Mindy was already there waiting for him. He could tell thatMindy attached great importance to the pure femininity blossom.

He felt a little embarrassed to have a lady waiting for him.

When she saw Austin, Mindy gave him a sweet and dainty smile, andsoon after, they began to start their journey.

Their destination was fifty miles away from Sun Sect—neither too nearnor too far. The twin blossoms would blossom in five days, and Mindyand Austin just had plenty of time before that.

Before heading south, they stopped at Peace Town to buy two horsesand daily necessities for their travel.

Just as they left Peace Town, more than ten bulky men appeared out ofnowhere and followed them quietly.

The leader of the men wore a blood red cloak designed with a giganticwolf growling at the sky.

Experienced cultivators would recognize the mark at first glance. Thisman must be a leader of the Blood Wolf Team. After all, not everymember could wear the cloak when they carried out a mission.

"Tell our men to keep an eye on that brat. He may have something todo with the death of our five brothers. We must not let him go!"

the leader demanded in a cold voice. . . .

On their way to the valley, Austin and Mindy hardly spoke while theirhorses raced forward. She led the way, while he followed after her.After a day of traveling, they found a place near a river where theystopped to spend the night.

They made a campfire and ate the food they had bought in PeaceTown.

After finishing their dinner, Austin set up a tent for Mindy, and the ladyimmediately went to sleep. She must have been exhausted for the day.Austin sat on the ground with his legs crossed and began to cultivatethe Golden Sun Scripture.

Although Mindy hadn't spent much time with Austin, she knew he wasa reliable man. She trusted him enough and fell asleep immediately.She understood that he would not take advantage of her... .

As Austin began his cultivation, the vital energy in the air swarmedaround him at high speed.

He had been cultivating Golden Sun Scripture for many days, and hefound that when it began to operate, he would absorb so muchpositive vital energy in the atmosphere and a slight amount of negativevital energy.

He guessed it might be because Golden Sun Scripture was a positivevital energy refining formula.

The light sphere in his elixir field was about the size of a fist. It glowedlike burnished gold, making his entire elixir field bright and warm.Austin felt like he had endless energy.

He planned to improve himself, even more, to make him stronger andmore powerful. He was settled to refine his vital energy by cultivatingGolden Sun Scripture and shape his body by cultivating Overlord Body-refining Formula.

As long as he could refine his vital energy and body to extremes, hebelieved that he would be a really strong cultivator... ..

Two days after, Austin and Mindy finally reached the valley where theMysterious Ancient Well was located

The valley was hard to replace. They had to trek through a dense forestand walk across a dangerous marshland before reaching the entranceof the valley.

They even encountered many level 1 and level 2 demonic and diabolicbeasts dwelling in the areas before the valley.

But it took Austin not even a bead of sweat to deal with all of them.What was more, Austin used his simplest physical attack—a punchstrong enough to slay a beast.

The power of his single punch equaled to 1, 000 pounds. Along with hiswind-commanding Skill, he feared no demonic and diabolic beastsbelow level 2.

Those beasts were like newborn babies to Austin—frail and harmless,which greatly shocked Mindy.

Several months ago, Austin and several outer disciples had an uphillbattle in dealing with two level 2 evil apes in that Beast Mountain.During that time, it would take Austin and his companions a while tokill several beasts. Now, he could effortlessly slaughter two level 2 evilapes by himself.

Mindy didn't understand how Austin was able to make such significantimprovements in a short time. . .

Half an hour passed after Mindy and Austin entered the valley.Suddenly, a cold breeze blew ahead of them. On its path was an oceanof white mist filled with frost on the ground.

Mindy jumped in excitement.

"Here we are. Look! That's the Mysterious Ancient Well."

Austin looked at where Mindy was pointing and saw an old well.

It was surrounded by a strange ground grey as ash. Even the stoneswere pitch black as if a wildfire had circled the area. It stretched forabout fifty feet in radius. The surroundings looked eerie that evenmosquitoes and worms would avoid sheltering in its scope.

"Every 30 minutes, the Mysterious Ancient Well will change itstemperature between extremely cold and extremely hot. These twokinds of temperatures alternate. As a result, no living things thrivearound the well,” Mindy explained as she could tell that Austin wasconfused at the sight of the place.

Not until then did Austin realize that living things couldn't inhabit suchan environment.

"The twin blossoms will not blossom until two days later. Why don't weput up the tent and wait here? We'll pick the blossoms in two days,"Mindy offered.

Austin nodded without hesitation.

All of a sudden, he felt something. He began to use his spiritual senseto check what was going on within four hundred meters.

With the spiritual sense, he saw several people.

Slowly growing in number, they entered the valley in succession.There were about more than ten of them.

One of them wore a blood-red cloak, which was very eye-catching.The giant wolf on the cloak reminded Austin who he was.

He must be from the Blood Wolf Team!

It seemed that the Blood Wolf Team had gotten the news as soon asAustin had left the Sun Sect, and sent people to kill him. They weredefinitely on his trail.

Five members of the Blood Wolf Team had been killed in the outermountains of Grand Desolation Mountain.

Blood Wolf Team didn't know who killed them. And because they diedwhile carrying out their mission to kill Austin, they automaticallythought it was him who assassinated them all.

Austin could tell that the man in the red cloak reached the Earth Realm."Seems like we can't just wait here for two days," said Austin.

Puzzled, Mindy asked him why.

He told her what he had seen.

Mindy was pale with fear when she heard that people from the BloodWolf Team were after them. The team was well-known in Violet OrchidEmpire as they had a reputation of being a cruel and brutal team ofcultivators.

Upon learning that a cultivator of Earth Realm and more than tenmembers of the Blood Wolf Team were hunting them, Mindy wasgripped by terror.

All the lively colors had left her cheeks.
