Austin couldn't help crave this spiritual sense skill after he had briefly read the introduction, and he
wanted to interpret its profound mystery.
So far, Austin had read five jade slips and learned five new martial arts skills, while three of them had
gotten his attention.
Actually, he had already decided to try the three later, and they were: the Brutal Blast Fist, the Kirin
Transformation Formula, and the Demon-creating Skill.
Austin had gained lots of experience in the Mysterious Nether World, and the most impressive was the
spiritual elixirs and the martial arts skills. Needless to say, there were also other precious experiences.
He had run into Angus by accident and received the Scorching Evil Fire. Later he was lucky to get to
know the Flame Emperor, obtain his vital energy and master the Flame Swordsmanship.
In conclusion, Austin felt his journey to the Mysterious Nether World had not been made in vain. He
had not only made great progress in cultivation and stepped into the Sky Realm, but he had also
received so many precious treasures. It was indeed a rewarding cultivation.
After he had carefully sorted out all of his achievements from this journey, Austin left the secret
chamber where he had been cultivating for some time.
The first thing he did was to call Mike to come over. He handed over all of the fourth and fifth grade
elixirs which he intended to sell to Mike, and asked him to sell them at the auction houses at the
imperial capital city.
After that, he spent a whole day with Ivy and Sue. Although Austin had been setting almost all of his
attention on his cultivation, he knew that he needed to spare some time for his wives. Since he had
married them, he ought to do as a husband should and take care of his wives.
It was a wonderful day for the three of them in the garden of Austin Palace. He sat on a stone bench
with both Ivy and Sue, where they whispered loving endearments into each other's ears and showed
intimacy without any holding back. It felt great to be so greatly attached to each other, and it was
relaxing for Austin to be together with his wives after a hard cultivation session.
Both Ivy and Sue were ravishing, sweet tempered beauties. Austin was still a young man at his
seventeen, vigorous and active. It was a pleasure for him to spend time with his wives, and thus he
devoted his heart and soul to please them. And they reciprocated in turn.
The next day, Mike returned from the imperial capital city.
He had succeeded in carrying out Austin's assignment and had managed to sell all of the elixirs.
Mike had taken nearly two hundred elixirs of the fourth or fifth grade with him, and he earned eighty
million vital energy crystals this time in sales.
However, Austin didn't take even one of these vital crystals from him, but left all of them in Mike's care.
This sum would be used as a cultivation fund for his two wives.
Since they had wed, Austin had tried his best, as a husband should, to provide for them from his vast
resources to make sure that they would always get the best.
Apart from the large sum of vital energy crystals, Austin also gave the seventh grade martial arts skill,
the Demon-terminating Whip, to Sue and Ivy, because he thought it would be a good idea for the girls
to cultivate the whip as a weapon.
As a matter of fact, Austin did even better than that. He selected another ten sixth grade skills that were
suitable for the girls to cultivate and gave them to his two wives at the same time.
And he also found them many Energy-boosting Elixirs and a couple of bottles of Energy-prevailing
Elixirs in his space ring. He was more than generous to them.
At this moment, both Sue and Ivy were cultivators of the Energy Gathering Realm, but Austin believed
that they would make great progresses in a short time with the help of the resources he had now
provided. After all, a workman must sharpen his tools, if he is to do his work well.
The truth was that, with so many cultivation resources at hand, it would be hard for Sue and Ivy not to
make more breakthroughs, and they would achieve double the results with half the effort.
After making arrangements for his two wives, Austin also left some cultivation resources for his best
friends, Evan and Herbert.
Austin had been keeping up to date with their cultivation progress and knew that both of them would
shortly step into the Earth Realm.
And when they became Earth Realm cultivators, they would be able to protect themselves in this
empire, and then Austin wouldn't have to divide his attention into taking care of them all the time.
Austin was a man who paid close attention to the people that were dear to him. He not only worked
hard on his own cultivation, but also concerned himself with their cultivation progress. One tree does
not make a forest, and as long as the people close to him were strong enough, then he could be more
focused on his own business and spend less time protecting them. Only by doing so, could he
concentrate more.
After everything had been arranged, Austin entered the cultivation chamber again and without any
further delay, prepared to cultivate in seclusion.
He decided to focus on cultivating the three seventh grade martial skills he previously got from the jade
slips.
Austin had his own plans. After breaking into the Sky Realm, he had been unable to present any other
remarkable skills, except for the Flame Swordsmanship, and he didn't want to lose face when
confronting cultivators of the same level.
Thus, it was urgent for him to cultivate a couple of skills that could match his vital energy realm. So as
a man of action, he locked himself in the cultivation chamber again.
Before he went into the chamber, he had mentally gone through the three martial skills and decided to
cultivate the Brutal Blast Fist first, because he thought it seemed easier than the other two.
It would make him more confident if he could successfully cultivate it in a short space of time.
With this thought, Austin read the main points of the Brutal Blast Fist carefully in his Soul Sea before he
started his cultivation, because a good beginning is half the success.
To master this skill, Austin needed to learn all eight fist positions separately at first, and only after
mastering all eight forces, could he practice combining them together into one. It was said the
combination would result in a blasting force, which was all-conquering and would destroy everything in
its path. The people who were hit by it would be smashed to pieces at once.
After clarifying it, Austin started with the first fist position, the tearing force.
What was learned from books was after all superficial. And with no practice, there could be no gain in
one's wit. Only after he began cultivating this seventh grade skill, did Austin learn that it was too
profound to be easily understood. With his strong cultivation base and immense spiritual power, it still
took him fully three days to get close to some preliminary tricks of that force, and after practicing many
times, it began showing some tearing force when he threw a punch.
Only on the fourth day, did he completely comprehend the essence of the tearing force.
After successfully mastering the first one, things became a little easier for him, and he cultivated the
remaining seven fist positions one by one without stop.
The eight forces, namely: the tearing force, the pulling force, the breaking force, the chopping force, the
twisting force, the rotating force, the softening force and the locking force, were actually directly related
to the use of vital energy force.
Cultivators needed to learn to control their own vital energy force first.
Then it would be easier to cultivate the Brutal Blast Fist. When a cultivator threw a punch, it would have
different effects, if he subtly controlled the vital energy force with his fist. Besides, it inevitably
combined with the body power. As Austin's body power was overwhelming, it was much better for him
to cultivate fist positions instead of other resources, because it would provide a more impressive force
when it impacted on his rival.
When adopting the tearing force, it would tear the vital energy force of a rival into two when punching
him. And if the target was the body of a rival, it would directly tear his body apart with aggressive force.
The pulling force was also delicate.
It could hold the attack of a rival, put it under control and pull it aside. What was more, it could pull that
attack around and return it back to attack its owner, which was similar to the light fingers in Tai Chi, a
kind of traditional Chinese shadow boxing. This allowed for the accomplishment of a great task with
little effort by clever maneuvers.
Then it was the turn of the breaking force. Once punching, it would break everything in its way into
pieces from the inside, and it was indeed a formidable force. .
With the chopping force, the cultivator's fist would become like a blade.
It would split the very air, leaving a smooth, neat incision. .
The softening force was relatively gentle.
For instance, if the cultivator punched a tree, it would not appear any different on the surface, but on
the inside it would be smashed into a pile of fibers. .
To this moment, the effects of Austin's Overlord Body-refining Formula reflected its advantages by
giving him a strong body.
He not only had a powerful physical strength, but also a body as strong as nails. But what was of
greater importance, he could utilize every single part of his body as he wished.
Consequently, Austin was freely able to learn all of these fist positions without too much difficulty, from
the tearing force, the pulling force, and the rotating force to the more complicated softening force. He
simply stretched out his hand and brought them to life in front of him.
It took him half a month to learn all eight the forces.
By then, he was skilled in all of them.
To his disappointment, he didn't manage to complete the final step, to combine all eight forces together
and generate a massively destructive blasting force. Although he had practiced many times, it felt
unfinished, and he was unable to achieve the satisfying effect which he had expected.
But Austin wasn't frustrated, and he believed that he would throw a perfect Brutal Blast Fist some time
later, perhaps in a month's time at most.
And the power would be multiplied once his fist could give out a blasting force.
