The nine mummies charged ferociously at Austin. The corpse miasma emanating from them filled the air and blocked most of the light from the sky. They were like thick dark clouds that gathered in the sky before a storm, racing across the heavens, swirling and colliding in vast pile-ups. The world seemed like hell now—dark, heavy and depressing.
As the corpse miasma savagely took over the whole place, Austin and Violet immediately felt dizzy. Feelings of despair, resentment, grief, and certain gloom began to surge in them.
Damn! The corpse miasma was pervasive. They could aggressively penetrate a human's body, affecting their emotions and eroding their will.
Austin and Violet became alert to the changes the corpse miasma was causing them.
Almost as a reflex action, Austin activated his Golden Sun Scripture. The light golden vital energy burst out of his body and engulfed him. A protective shield, formed by the glittering vital energy covered Austin, Violet, and the gnome to ensure their safety.
As soon as the dark heavy corpse miasma met the light golden vital energy that Austin had released, they backed away as if the vital energy was the bane of their lives.
Austin marveled at the power of the Golden Sun Scripture. There was a line in the outline of the Golden Sun Scripture that said, "The Golden Sun Scripture is the most powerful formula in the world." That fact had been proven now. The seemingly barbarous corpse miasma was intimidated by the light golden vital energy that Austin had released through the Golden Sun Scripture.
As the saying went, "Evil could never prevail over good." The corpse miasma was the dark power from death, while the light golden vital energy was the light power from the sun. And the light power would always conquer the dark power. Austin felt lucky that he had mastered such a skill that enabled him to get rid of the corpse miasma.
However, it was only a fleeting moment of relief. Austin didn't have much time to ponder or wonder about it, as there was more trouble waiting ahead.
Austin and Violet both realized that they were in danger. The nine tall and strong mummies that were rushing towards them were all extremely horrible and formidable. They were not like the common mummies they had dealt with before.
"Master, what should we do now?"
Violet asked Austin, ready to act at his merest gesture.
"We have no choice but to break free by force!"
Austin decided after a quick thought.
"We should head in the same direction. And don't let them gather together. We can't deal with nine mummies at the same time.
Oh wait! There are ten of them. The one we met back in the cave has just arrived!"
Austin frowned as he sensed that the most powerful mummy they had met in the cave had reached the entrance to the cave. He was about to leap out of the rock gate.
Ten mummies whose powers were far more terrifying than normal ones had now surrounded Austin and Violet with no place to escape.
Austin and Violet wasted no time. They rushed in the direction of the valley, their feet taking them forward fast as lightning.
