As the man shouted, a skinny hand suddenly reached out. It blocked the tongue after going through the misty void.
The withered hand looked old and weak; but suddenly, with only a gentle touch, it was already holding the scarlet tongue in its palm.
"Howl!"
The tall human-shaped creature let out a loud roar and wanted to draw the scarlet tongue back.
Bang!
He clenched his fist, and the scarlet tongue exploded as it turned into a cloud of blood.
Austin and his two companions had a narrow escape from death. They could not believe that they even survived but they were thankful that they did.
Pleased, they looked at the owner of the withered hand gratefully. He was sitting cross-legged at a distance, staring at them.
It was the skinny old man whom they already had the pleasure of meeting before. No one noticed when he had appeared in front of Austin again.
According to the gnome, the old man must once have meditated at the place ten thousand years ago.
And what Austin and his two companions witnessed actually happened ten thousand years ago.
But the old man, who meditated ten thousand years ago exactly at the place where Austin and his companions were passing by, had saved them a short while ago.
'Could this old man be so powerful that he could travel the endless space and time to save people ten thousand years later?'
The more Austin thought about it, the more terrified he felt.
It was just like a fairy tale.
"Howl!"
The human-shaped creature had its tongue broken due to the old man's unexpected attack. In great pain, it couldn't help but roar loudly to the sky.
But it also knew clearly that the old man was too powerful for it to provoke.
So instead, the creature turned around and fled feeling defeated.
"It's too late," the skinny old man said in a low voice.
Austin and his companions stared at him in surprise.
Although he was not far from Austin, he looked so surreal as if one was watching flowers in the mist or seeing the moon from the water.
Austin concentrated and released his spiritual sense to hopefully explore the location of the old man, but found that there was no one there.
His brows furrowing, he found it weird that the old man couldn't be detected by his spiritual sense.
In general, things sensed by the spiritual sense would be more real and reliable than what was seen with the naked eye.
"It seems that my eyes deceived me. As a matter of fact, no one has ever been in that position.
I only saw the scene that happened 10, 000 years ago."
He could not fathom his surprise as it was very unexpected.
What happened was beyond his imagination. He felt dizzy just by thinking about it because it was impossible to explain it in an orderly fashion.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The void shook violently.
The creature with the shape of a human strode backward and was fleeing rapidly.
The old man stretched out a withered finger towards the direction of the human-shaped creature and gently scratched.
Bang!
A beam of thick light was ejected, bright and dazzling, making people cover their eyes to avoid looking straight into it.
"Howl!"
The creature sensed danger all over its body. It had no choice but to fight the old man.
As a result, it suddenly turned around and flung out a mighty fist with golden radiance.
The fist was covered with golden light scales, glittering and releasing a terrifying pressure of energy.
The space ahead of its fist collapsed and exploded, and countless space fragments splashed, forming eternal black holes.
The creature smashed a space with a punch, and Austin could only imagine how powerful it was.
Bang!
The beam of light hit the giant golden fist of the humanoid creature.
Puff!
With a loud bang, the creature's fist broke into pieces, and it spat out blood and flesh all over the sky.
Then, the beam of light continued to move forward.
