There was a dense forest in the outer mountains of Grand Desolation Mountain range.
All of a sudden, a deafening snarl of an angry beast came breaking the apparent tranquility of the
forest.
"Roar!" The roar reverberated through the towering trees.
Then, a giant beast with unpleasant smell stormed out of the forest, breaking several trees that stood in
the way. Its whole body was badly scarred, and the wounds were bleeding freely. Its skin had ruptured
in places and raw flesh could be seen peeping out of his wounds.
"Hah! You beast, stop running! Let me practice my Brutal Blast Fist with you."
A young man came out, chasing the beast. He was as fast as lightning as he ran after the beast. The
young man was none other than Austin. He stopped the beast in its tracks with a laugh.
As Austin proceeded ahead with his cultivation practices, he went into the depths of the outer
mountains of Grand Desolation Mountain range to practice his skills with the demonic and diabolic
beasts. He had just started practicing the Brutal Blast Fist and wanted to use it in the real fights to test
its power. As a result, the nightmare of the demonic and diabolic beasts had started. Whenever Austin
met demonic and diabolic beasts above level 4, he would use the Brutal Blast Fist to fight them.
The level 4 and level 5 demonic and diabolic beasts were equivalent to cultivators at the Earth Realm.
And given the upgraded power and strength Austin acquired lately, he could kill these beasts
effortlessly.
However, in order to practice the Brutal Blast Fist, he didn't use his other martial arts skills. Instead, he
would use different kinds of forces of the Brutal Blast Fist on these unlucky beasts. Austin always liked
to challenge his own skills in every step of his cultivation process.
Demonic and diabolic beasts were born with strong bodies. Thus, they were the best opponents for
Austin to practice the Brutal Blast Fist with. He had been dealing with these beasts for several days.
After days of practice, he attained control over the Brutal Blast Fist more skillfully.
And much to his surprise, after he knew the Brutal Blast Fist better, he was even successful in using
the eight forces together, causing the beasts to explode from the inside.
The beast Austin was dealing with at the moment was a black rock diabolic bull. It was a level 5
diabolic beast.
It was clear from its name that its whole body was black. And by the virtue of its black body, it would not
be visible at night.
The black rock diabolic bull was famous for its high defensiveness—its skin was as hard as a rock.
Although it was a level 5 diabolic beast, equivalent to a cultivator at the premium stage of Earth Realm,
it was difficult for a cultivator at the Mysterious Realm to break its defensiveness because of its rock-
like skin.
Austin had been after the black rock diabolic bull for almost an hour and had used eight forces of the
Brutal Blast Fist on it one after another. In fact, he had reduced his strength on purpose. However,
despite its hard skin, every time Austin hurled a force on the black rock diabolic bull, it had wounds all
over its body that even made it cry in pain.
The black rock diabolic bull was frightened by Austin. Though he seemed to be young, he had a
commendable body movement and extremely refined skills. His fists were so strong and powerful that
whenever he threw a punch at the beast, a wound would be inflicted on its body.
The black rock diabolic bull didn't dare to fight back any longer. It turned around in an attempt to run
away from him.
It was a piece of cake for Austin to catch up to the black rock diabolic bull with his agile bodily
movement skill. In just a few steps, he blocked its way again.
"Moo..." The black rock diabolic bull swayed its head in desperation and mooed.
The black rock diabolic bull got easily irritated. It was defending itself against Austin's powerful attacks
for a long time. The numerous attempts it took to counter-attack failed. And now it was even unable to
run away from Austin. Now, it got enraged. Its eyes became red as blood; it stared at Austin and hit its
hoof on the ground heavily.
Boom!
A big bang reverberated through the earth and the heavens, making all birds fly out of their nests out of
fear. An ominous tremble shook the ground with great force. The black rock diabolic bull dashed
towards Austin with its horns pointed forward madly, just like a steel chariot. The two black horns as
sharp as knives looked dreadful as they were charged towards Austin.
"Huh! You are so desperate, aren't you?"
Austin teased with a playful smile on his face.
"Great! Eight forces integrated as one!"
Austin called out. Without dodging, Austin made his vital energy converge on his right fist and threw a
punch at the black rock diabolic beast. Tearing force, pulling force, breaking force, chopping force,
twisting force, rotating force, softening force, locking force—he was trying to use these eight forces
together.
Instantly, a golden light ball emerged above Austin's hand. It was a ball full of vital energy force that
was dancing on Austin's hand. It varied constantly in brightness and size. Austin integrated eight forces
and made this glowing ball.
"Attack!"
Austin jumped to his feet and charged at the black rock diabolic bull.
Boom!
Austin's right fist collided with the head of the black rock diabolic bull.
There was a bewildered look in the eyes of the black rock diabolic bull.
When it collided with Austin, it was stopped by a strong force that made it immobile and fixed to a spot.
However, the attack seemed to be less powerful than the earlier ones. Most importantly, Austin's fist did
not cause any further injury to its body. The bull was shocked at this unexpected respite.
Was it because Austin's strength had been used up in the previous fight?
But the look on Austin's face revealed just the opposite. He stared right into the eyes of the black rock
diabolic bull, overjoyed. Yes! Once again he had succeeded in integrating the eight forces.
The glowing ball of the eight forces was slammed into the black rock diabolic bull's body.
"Explode!"
Austin cried out with an ecstatic expression on his face.
Bang!
A loud thud came from within the black rock diabolic bull's body. It quivered as if had been struck by a
thunderbolt and started bleeding. Blood started flowing out of its eyes, ears, nose, and mouth in a
steady stream.
Then its four limbs couldn't support its body anymore. Its body fell on the ground. The blood gushing
out of its mouth also had a bit and parts of internal organs coming out with it. The light in its eyes faded
as the life air left its body putting it to eternal rest.
The power of the integrated eight forces of the Brutal Blast Fist was indeed amazing. The black rock
diabolic bull looked intact on the surface, but its internal organs had been smashed into pieces.
Austin looked at the lifeless black rock diabolic bull, flashing a satisfied smile. It was the sixth time that
he had succeeded in integrating the eight forces.
Austin patted the black rock diabolic bull's head and a bloody beast core flew out. He grabbed it and
put it in his Space Ring.
He had a separate Space Ring exclusively to store the beast cores.
The beast core of a level 5 diabolic beast cost more than 10, 000 vital energy crystals. Austin was
super rich now, and he didn't take this amount of vital energy crystals seriously. Beast cores took up too
much space. He wouldn't hunt level 5 diabolic beasts to collect their beast cores anymore. But since
this one had been killed already, he collected its beast core as well.
Now, Austin planned to hunt demonic and diabolic beasts that were above level 6 because their beast
cores might be useful in pill refining.
In the Mysterious Nether World, he had collected many beast cores of level 6 and level 7 demonic and
diabolic beasts.
He would not sell these beast cores for money; he didn't lack money.
Now that he had achieved yet another target, it was time for him to move ahead. Hence he used the
Wind-commanding Skill to move towards the depths of the outer mountains of Grand Desolation
Mountain range.
