"Oh, no. I don't want to die like this."
The aristocrat inhaled a trembling breath, icy cold sweat accumulating on his skin.
His fate was sealed since he couldn't resist the simultaneous attacks from the spiritual dragon, the spiritual tree, and the Eyes of the Ghostdom Ancestor of Austin and Darby. His spiritual soul died as soon as his final words left his lips.
The dead aristocrat laid on the floor on his back, and the spiritual dragon dashed forward and swallowed his corpse in one fell swoop.
Whoosh!
An illusory number fell from the sky and rushed into Austin's jade token.
'Fifty thousand, ' it read.
The death of the aristocrat was worth fifty thousand points.
Tracking down the members of the spiritual race was a daunting task to do since each of them was sneaky and had a significant number of slaves under their control. Slaying them was not an easy mission.
Therefore, the participants only need two thousand points to pass the test.
"Master, I can't believe you took down an aristocrat!
That's so impressive!" Morse clapped his hands together.
He knew that Austin was a powerful individual, but he never knew he was this compelling. Watching him take down the aristocrat made him bewildered.
"This spiritual dragon is indeed an amazing treasure!"
Austin commended, delighted with the spiritual dragon's powers.
He had benefited a lot from refining the dragon.
"Huh? Something's off. I can't seem to sense our lord."
"What's going on?! I have a hunch that something has happened to our lord!"
"Has our lord fallen?"
In the distance, the members of the spiritual race who worked for the dead aristocrat felt something was wrong since they couldn't perceive their lord. They freaked out.
"Don't worry. Our lord is practically invincible. No one can hurt him.
It's impossible that a mere human weakling could take his life.
You worry too much.
I guess our lord is preparing for some secret skills of our race in a bid to take that human weakling in one move! That's why he concealed his aura and we couldn't feel him."
Several members of the spiritual race whom the aristocrat had trusted the most stood out and tried to reassure their panic-stricken companions.
For them, there was no one from the human race formidable enough to take their lord down. It was not feasible that he would die in the hands of a human.
Austin swept his gaze through the spirits nearby.
Then, using his mind, Austin transported his companions out of the Slave Tower, including the Heavenly Majestic Pot and Violet.
"There are at least a hundred thousand members of the spiritual race over there. If you slay them, you will get enough points to pass the test.
You don't have to worry about anything. The spiritual dragon and the spiritual tree will protect you,"
Austin reassured their safety.
Trusting Austin's words, his companions attacked the horde of spirits.
"Come on, guys. Let's slaughter all these damn participants!"
Over a hundred thousand members of the spiritual race, coupled with their astonishing number of slaves, charged at Austin's companions.
The spiritual dragon growled ferociously and flew towards the spirits.
It released overwhelming spiritual soul energy that spread in all directions, and those spirits who came into contact with the energy felt their legs turn limp. And before they could realize what was going on, they were swallowed by the spiritual dragon.
The more spirits the dragon swallowed, the more powerful it became.
After a while, the spiritual tree appeared and floated in the air.
Its countless green leaves shot out and pierced through the bodies of the spiritual race members. It dragged them towards itself with its leaves and refined them.
Despite being outnumbered, the spiritual dragon still dominated them. The spirits were at a disadvantage since they faced against the spiritual dragon and the spiritual tree. They couldn't even fight back.
All of Austin's companions took the opportunity and finished off the members of the spiritual race one after another.
It did not take them a long time to acquire an adequate amount.
And true enough, they all passed the second test
The participants who had become Austin's slaves such as Darby also passed the second test.
"Where on earth is our lord? Why hasn't he come back?"
"Did he fall?"
The rest of the spirits were slowly becoming disheartened. If their lord weren't around to fight with them, it would be pointless. They were losing their will because of the unfortunate events. First, they witnessed their kind die one after another. And now, the aristocrat they looked forward to meeting was nowhere to be found.
Out of the blue, a member of the spiritual race came screeching loudly, as if hurrying to escape from something.
"Run!"
Seeing their panic-stricken companion, all the rest of spirits followed suit.
However, the spiritual dragon and the spiritual tree were much faster than them.
The two of them went after the terrified spirits and wiped out all of them.
When the battle came to an end, Austin was ecstatic to find that the spiritual dragon and spiritual tree had acquired an overwhelming amount of spiritual soul energy.
With that, his spiritual sense also increased tremendously.
The Heavenly Majestic Pot, along with Violet, the gnome and the rest of them, collected an astonishing number of spiritual crystals on the battlefield.
