The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1498

Standing in the open, Austin, Tyler, and Caroline were nervously staring at the void above them. Through the thick clouds, corpses were plummeting towards the ground. They examined the bodies, noticing their twisted faces and bloodied clothes. Each time, they let out a sigh of relief when they did not see the old man's face among them.

If the old man were dead, the three, who were much weaker than him, would be killed at any moment.

They needed his protection from the enemies that were far more skilled than they were. He was the wisest, most powerful warrior they had met and even so, they feared that he could be defeated.

Minutes continued to pass and the three still did not know who was winning the fight. The thick clouds were impenetrable by their vision; the void was just too high up. Gradually, the sound of fighting lessened. All three of them stood on their toes, straining to see the old man approaching from the void.

When no one appeared, they once again became nervous, fearing they had missed something. Counting silently, they realized a dozen masters had been killed by the old man during the battle.

Whoosh!

Their heads snapped upwards. The clouds were parting and the old man was falling from the sky with increasing speed. He landed near them within a few seconds.

The corner of the old man's mouth was dripping blood and his face was pale.

"There are too many enemies! We need to go now!"

The old man waved his hand and a giant vital energy palm formed. He continued running while scooping the trio up with the palm. They headed for the land in the distance that was covered in mountains. It was the same spot where the man had created an array earlier.

Once the four of them had reached the mountainous land, it only took seconds for a dazzling, white light to appear. It surrounded them, causing them to squeeze their eyes shut.

The light began to flash, consuming them one by one.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...

The old man was the last to disappear and the moment he flickered away, several figures swooped down from the void and hovered above the mountainous land where the four had disappeared just now.

All of the figures were wrapped in layers of vital energy force, making it impossible to distinguish their faces. The leader of the small group scowled through his own misty appearance.

"Damn it! I didn't think the Mad Old Man could create such a powerful array. Not only can it launch attacks but it also has the function of space teleportation.

Now, he could be more than ten thousand kilometers away from us,"

one of the figures said, casting a disappointed look at the land. The leader shot him a threatening look that made the figure cringe.

"Keep chasing! The Mad Old Man managed to slip from our grasp every time. We may not get another chance to see him anytime soon. We have to catch him! We don't give up!"

the leader ordered, yelling so loudly that his voice echoed through the mountains. Without another word, the leader turned and faced the horizon. With a whoosh, he disappeared on the spot. The followers stared at the spot where he had disappeared. Clearly, he meant business.

Immediately, the space filled with the sound of whooshing as the followers also left to chase the old man.

One hundred thousand kilometers away from the mountainous land where the array was deployed, somewhere in the void, a few loud whooshing sounds disrupted the silence.

Four figures appeared at the same time, steadying their posture. They were the old man, and the trio.

The trio turned and looked at the old man who was panting heavily and bent over.

Puff... Puff...

The old man walked a few paces before he vomited blood on the sandy ground. His face looked even more pale and terrible than it had been before and his breathing was shallow. He held up his hand at the trio. He had to take a break from the teleportation before he passed out from overexertion.

"Elder Brendan, are you okay?"

Tyler asked anxiously. He proceeded to step forward to help the old man. The old man took a step backwards and shook his head.

"Don't worry! I am fine. Just give me a few seconds to rest. When I deployed the array, I had to burn my original blood essence. Then, during the battle, I had to activate our sect's holy weapon in order to kill the enemies. I have consumed a lot of my vital energy.

All right. I have rested enough. We don't have much time. We need to continue.

Our enemies will not give up easily. They are already on our tails,"

the old man said and then waved his hand again.

Out of the ground, a demonic beast skeleton rose. Piece by piece, it grew until it stood around 60 meters high and more than 100 meters long. It stood perfectly still, as if it was waiting for them.

The demonic beast skeleton looked like something that had lived a million years ago. There was something wise and mysterious about it. As they stared at it, a black glow seeped from it and surrounded it like a halo.

"It is the power of space teleportation!"

Austin blurted out. His hands covered his mouth in surprise. The other two appeared confused.

Austin was a step ahead because he already had a preliminary understanding of space teleportation power. Also, there was a tingling in his fingers, like he could feel it moving through the air.

"Well, you are quite right. It is the power of space teleportation. I'm impressed that you could feel it as well."

The old man smiled at Austin but, on the inside, he felt taken aback.

The spatial power was very esoteric and difficult to cultivate.

With his weak cultivation base, Austin should not be able to feel the power.

"All of you, stand on the skeleton now," the old man said.
