When the golden pagoda was broken, Austin felt a rush of emptiness through his energy meridians, finally feeling how his energy had drained away.
A sense of inadequacy took over his body. It was a sign of too much loss of his vital energy.
Although the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill was extremely powerful and famous for its fierce and overwhelming momentum, every time it was performed, it would consume 70 percent of the cultivator's vital energy, which meant that at the moment only 30 percent of Austin's vital energy was left in his energy meridians.
Steward Meng immediately realized Austin's burn-out state.
Now, both he and Austin were an even match for each other. As Steward Meng also got worn out and his injuries got worse, Steward Meng knew that he had had a chance but not now, not after all that had happened. This bitter truth bogged him down.
In a normal scenario, he, a cultivator in the Mysterious Realm, could have easily defeated an opponent of the Earth Realm even if he had failed to kill him in a second.
Today, as a result of the battle with the three-eyed scarlet bull, Steward Meng had suffered too much and was so badly injured that he was barely able to cope with a cultivator in the Earth Realm.
It gave him a bitter sense of loss.
Still Austin too suffering from exhaustion consoled his bruised ego.
'This tough guy owns a powerful combat capability, but he's in the Earth Realm after all. On the basis of his vital energy, he is no match for me.' Steward Meng felt proud at this thought.
'After the tough battle between us, neither he nor I tasted victory. His vital energy is now ebbing to the most basic level.'
"Haha, a nobody is always a nobody. Do you think you, a cultivator of the Earth Realm, could really prove to be a threat to someone like me?
Well, let me guess, you've lost at least 70 percent of your vital energy. Am I right? I'll see how you defend yourself against my subsequent attacks! I'm telling you, you're going to die today!"
Steward Meng let out a wild laugh and looked at Austin with vengeance.
"Really?"
Austin looked back at Steward Meng. There was no fear or anger in his dark brown eyes.
"It is true that the Grand Pagoda Summoning Skill's greatest weakness is that it consumes too much vital energy.
But for me, it's not a problem," Austin replied with a grin.
His mind quickly picked pace and connected to the vital energy stone in his elixir field. Instantly, a burst of pure vital energy poured out from the vital energy stone as if a dam poured into a parched river.
In a moment, his energy meridians were full again. A feeling of complete strength traveled in Austin's body down to his fingertips.
His vital energy was back in top form!
The undulations of vital energy force immediately emanated from him, a cultivator of the Earth Realm. It was brutal and strong.
"No way! How is it possible that your vital energy has been completely restored all at once?"
Steward Meng cried in a hoarse voice, as if he had witnessed something very irrational.
"Haha, I'll see how you defend yourself against my subsequent attacks! I'm telling you, you're going to die today!"
Austin repeated what Steward Meng had just said to him in a mock-threatening tone. It was nothing less than a smack in the face.
"Damn! How did this happen? Why can't I beat you? You're only in the Earth Realm! This is outrageous! It shouldn't be like this!"
