The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 2329

Austin looked around.

A grey haze was all around the whole cave.

Using his spiritual sense, Austin found that the air inside the cave was dry and the grey mist was practically invisible to naked eyes.

Only old people who were about to pass away could emit such an aura. Once this haze appeared, it only meant one thing: someone was about to meet his maker.

Additionally, Austin felt something strange that the cave seemed to be filled with abundant immortal energy.

Despite this, Austin felt no comfort from this. Instead, he felt a little wistful, as if he saw the last radiance of the setting sun.

"Look,"

Kevin mentioned to Austin, pointing his finger to the front.

Looking over to the direction he pointed, Austin was stunned.

At the center of the huge cave was a grey light, blazing like an inferno.

It constantly emitted a grey mist which made the light around the area a little subdued.

"What's this, sir?"

Observing the mesmerizing grey light, Austin felt stunned and curious at the same time.

"It's the original energy essence of the continent,"

Kevin answered slowly, his face grim.

"The original energy essence of the continent? What is that?"

Austin racked his brain for familiarity. Oddly enough, he hadn't heard of that before.

"Every continent has its original energy essence.

Similar to our very own hearts, a continent has its own. It's the key to its very existence,"

Kevin expounded further.

"Creatures and other living beings are able to survive thanks to the original energy essence of the continent. This place in particular possesses bountiful spiritual energy.

This whole continent would be lifeless if it weren't for its original energy essence. It would end up becoming a barren land, a ruin, unsuitable for living beings to thrive.

It is said that a long time ago, there were many continents in every planet that once held nourished lives. But as time passed, the original energy essence of those continents dissipated, and along with it, billions of creatures vanished.

A continent can die as quickly as a man does. If the original energy essence meets its end, then the vitality of the whole continent dies with it. That being said, a continent without the original energy essence is nothing but an infertile land, ill-suited for any life to keep going,"

Kevin simplified to Austin.

"I get it."

Although he understood what Kevin meant, he was surprised that this was the first he heard of this.

Continents, just like human beings, also experienced sickness, old age, and death through various illnesses.

Kevin's explanation gave Austin a lot of things to think about. This information was all brand new for him.

Of course, Austin knew that Kevin was not bluffing. He was a dignified master and he would not dare lie to him.

"Is the grey flame we see the original energy essence of the Immortal End World?"

Austin asked, dawning on him what the flame could mean.

"No, the Immortal End World was shattered into forty-four smaller continents a long time ago.

The grey flame that we now see represents the original energy essence of the Vermilion World.

This cave is under the Dusk Mountain,"

Kevin explained further.

"I understand."

Austin nodded his head, grasping the whole concept Kevin previously described.

"I presume that you have felt it as well.

This continent's original energy essence has become weaker compared to what it was before.

Truth be told, the Vermilion World is not the only continent dealing with this problem.

There are eight heavens and thirty-six small worlds in the Immortal End World. Each of them has its own original energy essence constantly fading away with each passing second. They are all turning weak and vulnerable.

If something doesn't change soon enough, this could entail dire consequences.

Once the original energy essence fades, the continents will cease to exist hundreds of thousands years later.

As soon as this happens, the Immortal End World will be reduced to nothing but a piece of land without any spiritual energy and unsuitable for lives to flourish.

In this situation, even without the onslaught of foreign enemies, our existence would still be wiped out,"
