"Wow, looks like that he is going to make a breakthrough soon!"
Austin said to himself. Using his spiritual sense, he found out that the Sect Supremo was now sitting cross-legged in the cultivation chamber, with powerful vital energy force surrounding him, coursing and surging like tides on his skin.
Austin could tell very well that it was a sign of critical point for breakthrough.
Austin immediately activated his Thunderbolt Movement Skill and made for the cultivation chamber. Within seconds, he landed on that mountain, and came to the door of the secret room. He could have come straight in, but it would startle the Sect Supremo, or worse, make him lose control and die during the breakthrough. Holding his breath, Austin chose to wait for the breakthrough to happen outside.
The energy in the air peaked all of a sudden after about half an hour of waiting.
"Boom!"
A deafening sound came from behind the door and shook the air, as though something had exploded inside.
After some time, the stone door of the chamber thudded open, sweeping a pile of leaves to the gate with its force.
Then amidst the dust, the Sect Supremo walked out of the room with confidence on his face.
"Congratulations! It seems that you have made a breakthrough successfully.
I can see that you have become much stronger now."
Austin went up and extended greetings before the Sect Supremo noticed him. He stared at the Sect Supremo thoughtfully, and there was not much excitement in his tone. Obviously, he was not here merely to congratulate the Sect Supremo.
"Thank you, master! Thanks to the Energy-enhancing Pill you have given to me!
I would have never been able to reach the medium stage of Tribulation Realm all my life otherwise. To be honest, I didn't even entertain the hopes of ever coming close to a breakthrough anymore were it not for you!"
the Sect Supremo hastened to reply. The moment he met Austin's gaze, his heart sank. Reading between the lines, he bowed quickly and explained himself.
He was well aware that Austin was actually saying something else between the lines. If he just accepted his congratulations, he would be in big trouble.
"Master, you can be sure that I will never betray you!" the Sect Supremo went on to show his loyalty.
"After following you all this time, I realize that you are really an honorable and strong man. A legendary talent favored by God of Fortune.
So I believe that if I follow you with all my heart, I will learn much more from you and make more progress in the future,"
he vowed with determination.
"You are flattering me," Austin replied with a smile. "Don't worry. I will give your spiritual orb back to you when the time comes.
You don't have to spend the rest of your life being my servant,"
he said mildly.
"That's very kind of you, master!"
the Sect Supremo's mouth fell open with surprise.
"Not at all. Now you should take some time to consolidate your cultivation base,"
