And the rest were now too scared to fight her. So they started looking for ways to escape.
On top of that, Austin had killed the strongest among them, their leader, in just a few moves. The others had been subconsciously depending on Johnson to protect them. But seeing him die this poorly, egged them on to run for their lives.
Eight disciples remained and all seemed to be at a loss on the strategy ahead. Suddenly, a faceless person screamed to run and all of them scampered like an army of mice frantic to leave the battlefield.
Austin has killed Johnson by his hand! Whether Johnson deserved this or not, the Sun Sect wouldn't go easy on Austin once these witnesses spread the word on what they had just seen.
So, Austin had to kill them all!
He waved his Violet Royal Sword and again, the thirty beams of sword-light dashed at each of them. Carrying overwhelming energy, the sword-lights were hungry for blood.
To ensure that no survivors get left, Austin decided to call his level 3 sword intent.
As soon as it was called, a blazing sword-light pointed at each and every one of them, just a hair's breadth away from their necks. No disciple dared even breathe.
But they need not. Because, just within a second, flesh was pierced right through
and blood was gurgled out by scores of impaled bodies.
The attack was so brutal that there wasn't any margin for survival. In just one blow, Austin had killed eight disciples of the Energy Gathering Realm.
Austin's vital energy of the premium stage of the Earth Realm, his Illusory Swordsmanship and level 3 sword intent had made him almost invincible.
Violet was beyond astonished at
the scene when Austin killed the men in just a snap of his fingers. Open-eyed, she exclaimed in surprise.
"Okay, we have to bury these dead bodies in case it leads to a problem."
Nodding at Violet, Austin put his Violet Royal Sword to use and dug a huge pit behind a dense thicket. Then, the twenty bodies including Johnson's were lowered into it and covered with a layer of soil and leaves.
The ground was carefully leveled by Austin to make sure that no one could suspect there were graves underneath.
Right before putting Johnson's body into the pit, he searched the dead man for another Space Ring.
As the steward of the mighty Sun Sect, one of the five powerful sects, and a cultivator of medium stage of Earth Realm, Johnson was bound to have remarkable things on him.
Austin would not waste this chance to collect more vital energy crystals since he was badly in need of them for his cultivation.
With everything taken care of, Austin and Violet used their bodily movement skills to travel for three hours. They were ten kilometers away from the battleground when they had to stop.
Austin took out the Space Ring from Johnson to examine its worth.
There were around 300 thousand vital energy crystals, some cheap Energy-boosting Elixir, some Energy-prevailing Elixir and other such knickknacks.
"I thought he's richer than that," Austin sneered.
