The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 231

Austin was utterly shocked. A sixth-level diabolic beast? What was that supposed to mean? Violet was a third-level demonic beast and was as powerful as warriors at the preliminary stage of the Earth Realm. In fact, she could even be considered slightly better than them.

A sixth-level diabolic beast would then be as powerful as warriors who had reached the Mysterious Realm. And if that wasn't enough, diabolic beasts also had inherent physical advantages, so no ordinary master of the Mysterious Realm ever dared to provoke them.

In the face of those three masters of the Mysterious Realm and a sixth level diabolic beast, a cold sweat began to pop out of Austin's forehead. 'There is a real possibility that I will be killed if either of them finds me, ' he thought to himself.

'Was I wrong in my choice? Should I not have come here? I mean I may end up dead without getting what I want.'

However, he refused to yield even in the face of such a crisis. Besides, nothing could be gained if you sat idly on your couch. After a moment of panic and hesitation, Austin gritted his teeth and decided to fight it out with them.

Violet, residing in his mind, was also reluctant to give up so easily, and therefore, the two braced themselves to move secretly a few dozen meters forward. They found a huge tree and hid behind it.

They could see a gentle hillside in front of them.

Glancing from his hiding spot, Austin saw a sight he had never heard or seen before, and probably never would in the foreseeable future.

A giant lion, roughly about eight meters long was standing on the hill side. Its large body was wrapped in clusters of purple flames which rose dazzlingly.

Its ferocity could be easily seen as it opened its large mouth and bared its fangs. Its long purple manes fluttered in the air. There was some bizarre, terrifying light in its pupils, which were glowing, and its four brawny claws were like four giant pillars.

It was near the middle of the day and the sun was shining down its head. The lion was radiating a sinister light in that yellow glow. The flames on its body would leap up from time to time and spurt to its surroundings. It looked both gorgeous, as well as dangerous. Its pupils were a strange, bloody shade of red and showcased its invincible might.

In front of that lion, several dozen meters away, stood three men clad in white, spotless robes. They were masters of the Mysterious Realm and were from the Medicine Sect.

Both the lion, as well as the group of those masters had a domineering air around them. They looked mighty and awe-inspiring, and emitted a vital energy force several inches around them.

"Violet, do you know what kind of diabolic beast is that? I've never heard or seen anything like it before!"

Austin asked in his mind.

"That is a sixth level Purple Flaming Lion King," Violet answered, overcome with awe.

It was the first time that Austin had even heard this name.

However, its name was the least of their problems because the Purple Flaming Lion King was in a rage at this moment. Its voice suddenly resounded through the sky, "Man, leave! And I won't punish you for disturbing my slumber. Cloud Cave is now mine. If you intrude, you will bring destruction upon yourselves."

Austin couldn't believe his eyes. The Lion King was speaking clearly and could think like a sentient human being. He would have thought that the lion was a human if he hadn't just seen it and merely heard its voice instead.

"Austin, a sixth level diabolic beast is the mightiest of all beasts. It's like a warrior at the Mysterious Realm in terms of cultivation base. It has its own thought, and therefore, it can speak like us," Violet explained to dispel Austin's surprise and doubts.

"Oh, I see."

Enlightened at once, Austin nodded.

"Lion King, we just want to borrow the powerful crystal in your cave. The crystal means little to you, but for us pill refiners who need to train and hone our mental power, it means everything. If you are kind enough to let us pass, we'll be deeply grateful," the man standing in the middle of the trio from Medicine Sect said in his usual emotionless voice. He was known to be the definition of nonchalance among his friends.
