The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 124

There was a legend going around the disciples of the major sects in Violet Orchid Empire.

It was said that more than a decade ago, a disciple from Bloody Hero Gang found a celestial energy ginseng, which was over six hundred years old. The disciple stumbled upon it at the dense forest of Grand Desolation Mountain.

A celestial energy ginseng was considered a very rare treasure; only found once in a blue moon. Because of this, the disciple immediately asked a veteran doctor to whip up a concoction using the ginseng. After drinking the concoction up to the last drop, an unbelievable thing happened. He, who was a member of the eighth level in the Energy Gathering Realm suddenly broke through and unexpectedly found himself at the preliminary stage of the Earth Realm.

The news of the unexpected miracle spread throughout the Empire like wildfire. The celestial energy ginseng was regarded as a sacred article by the people who practiced martial arts. It was a treasure worth killing for.

But just like the morning dew which disappears as quickly as it appears, the ginseng was never found again in the Grand Desolation Mountain.

People tirelessly continued to search for the ginseng. And just like that, another one was found, leaving the people stunned and annoyed. But what angered them the most was the fact that the ginseng found was more precious compared to the one found by the disciple of the Bloody Hero Gang, because it was over seven hundred years old.

And everyone understood what it meant. Whoever got the ginseng would be able to make a massive breakthrough in their vital energy cultivation, a more extensive progress as compared to the disciple of the Bloody Hero Gang.

It was said the ginseng would boost not only the fighters from the lower realms, such as the Energy Gathering Realm and Earth Realm, but also the ones in the higher realms like the Mysterious Realm.

Thus, it was not surprising how fast the news spread about its discovery. It definitely caught every fighter's attention and countless numbers would move heaven and earth just to acquire it.

On that day, two disciples of the Blood Wolf Team hurried on with their journey.

Despite of their rush to reach their destination, the two were happily chatting with each other. They suddenly passed by an ancient tree, which was so thick that it would take four to five people to fully encircle with their arms.

The one on the left, who was about two meters in height, was a clumsy man who was holding a battleaxe in one of his hands. He was swinging along with his partner, when of all of sudden a chill ran down his spine, making him shudder all over.

As a seasoned fighter who fought multiple battles before, the chill he felt was a sign of danger approaching. He then quickly prepared for an attack.

But before he could even react, a flash of a fist bringing a gush of wind suddenly came to his face. It was so strong and abrupt that he didn't have time to catch his breath, let alone defend himself with his battleaxe. It was so swift and powerful that even the leaves on the trees were swaying.

The man then, without a moment's notice, gathered all his vital energy as fast as possible. He tried his best to prepare and protect himself from the incoming attack.

Bam! It was too late. He was unable to gather enough vital energy to resist the attack.

The powerful force penetrated through his energy like it was nothing, and directly connected with his body.

In a flash, all his bones broke like firecrackers crackling and spluttering. The tall and sturdy body of the man holding his battleaxe went flying away and crashing straight into a tree.

Because of the force of impact, the tree was broken into halves.

The man fell down on the ground. He was just lying there on his stomach, and no movement was detected from the seemingly lifeless body which was badly mutilated.

He had long kicked the bucket, not even a peep was heard from him.

The other member of the Blood Wolf Team was scared witless with the abrupt death of his partner. He even forgot how to breathe, as he stood there trembling with fear. Mouth open wide, he was still dumbfounded with what just transpired, when he suddenly realized the presence of a young man standing right in front of him.

"Austin! Is that you?" he shouted, his voice was thick with swirling emotions.

He still couldn't believe what had happened and that his partner was already dead.

He gasped as he tried to catch his breath, forcing himself to concentrate with the situation at hand. He averted his eyes from Austin and stared at the mutilated body of his partner, trying hard not to faint.

It was none other than Austin who gave the deadly blow to the man with a battleaxe, killing him in an instant.

It was the first time he tried punching someone with the strength of a thousand pounds, and what transpired shook him to his core. He wasn't expecting that with just one blow, he could actually kill a fighter from the eighth level in the Energy Gathering Realm. It was indeed impressive.

"You killed my brother!" the other man with a knife shouted again.

He was still wandering in his fugue state and wanted to confirm it again.
