Austin began practicing the level-one arrays that Fanny's grandpa had planted in his Soul Sea.
Within the next day, he had already mastered all the five of them.
He then went back to practicing the Earth-shaping Formula again.
Standing on the hillside, Austin activated his spiritual sense and closed his eyes. Following the procedure of the Earth-shaping Formula, he began his meditation and tried to feel the natural energy from rivers, mountains, and beneath the earth.
A few minutes later, he started to feel himself gradually immersing into the natural energy around him, as if Mother Nature was pulling him into her warm embrace.
He could even feel the pulse of the earth like it had a beating heart, the steady thumps surprising him.
He slowed down his breath, trying to keep a same steady beat as the earth.
It was a marvelous feeling.
A smile crept over the corner of his lips. Finally, he made an obvious progress in practicing the Earth-shaping Formula.
Although the nature energy he could feel from the earth was faint and weak, Austin still felt wild with joy. He was completely certain that as long as he persisted on practicing, he would be able to master the Earth-shaping Formula in no time.
"Master! A great number of strong cultivators are currently rushing towards the Heaven Pavilion Sect!"
Austin was still immersed in the ecstasy and the fantastic high he felt while practicing the Earth-shaping Formula, when he suddenly got a message from the Sect Supremo through the spiritual sense.
"Oh? Is it the Heaven Palace again?"
Austin stopped his meditation and opened his eyes.
He then jumped and flew into the air, heading towards the direction where the uninvited guests were coming from. His spiritual sense told him that his enemies were rushing to the gate outside the mountains.
"Tell our members to hide themselves well. Call for some strong cultivators and come with me. It won't be a big deal at all. We don't need many people,"
Austin responded to the Sect Supremo through the spiritual sense.
A few moments later, he and forty other Astral Realm cultivators positioned themselves in front of the gate.
When they looked up, they saw more than a thousand cultivators flying in the sky.
There were ten Tribulation Realm cultivators in the front line.
Austin activated his spiritual sense
and found out that there were two at the premium stage of Tribulation Realm among those ten. Three of them were at the medium stage of Tribulation Realm, and the other five were at the preliminary stage of Tribulation Realm.
Behind the ten Tribulation Realm cultivators, there were around one hundred and fifty Astral Realm cultivators and around seven hundred Master Realm cultivators, and behind them followed more than a thousand Imperial Realm cultivators.
Such a team was incredibly strong and intimidating in the usual case.
It would be as easy as blinking an eye for the team to destroy the whole Heaven Pavilion Sect.
"Ha-ha, wow! Looks like the Heaven Palace really wants us dead, huh?"
Austin sneered as he saw the strong team.
In a few short moments, the team from the Heaven Palace arrived in front of the gate.
"Stop!"
A cultivator in a light yellow robe, who was at the premium stage of Tribulation Realm, waved his hand at his teammates behind him.
The others stopped at once.
The Tribulation Realm cultivator in the light yellow robe stared at Austin, activating his spiritual sense to feel Austin's cultivation base.
"You are only at the preliminary stage of Astral Realm… How interesting,"
he said, brows knitting together.
Based on where Austin stood, he could immediately tell that Austin was the leader of the Heaven Pavilion Sect.
As a wise and observant man, the Tribulation Realm cultivator noted that there was probably something special about Austin which made him deserving to be the leader of the Heaven Pavilion Sect even though his cultivation base was only at the preliminary stage of Astral Realm.
"The last time we sent more than a thousand of our members to the Heaven Pavilion Sect, none of them returned to the Heaven Palace. Where are they? Spill it!"
the Tribulation Realm cultivator demanded, anger burning in his eyes as he glowered at Austin.
"Ha-ha! Those reckless people have all been killed! That is the price they paid for bursting into the Heaven Pavilion Sect,"
Austin answered coldly, his hands clasped behind his back.
"What?!
How dare you!
