Entirely out of the blue, Austin met his old enemy Roger who was the principal disciple of Sun Sect, in the battle ring. Their intense hatred for each other was evoked all over again and old bruises were opened. The battle gained immense importance for each other. It became a matter of life and death.
However, to Austin's surprise, Roger's Wildfire Spear Skill had reached the Minor Achievement Stage, and he had also achieved a level 7 spear intent. Roger was a much more formidable opponent than before.
Austin's level seven sword intent was suppressed by Roger's level seven spear intent, because the Wildfire Spear Skill which Roger used was a 5th grade skill, higher than the sword skill Austin used.
"Austin, you fled away from death three years ago because of nothing but luck. This time, fate will be on my side. I hope you're ready to die today."
Roger felt it in his bones that he was going to come out victorious this time.
The look in his eyes became vicious. "Wildfire Spear attack!" He shouted.
The spear that Roger had firmly clasped ejected thousands of purple wildfires. They were the size of a palm and they huddled together like a dense swarm of locusts. Each of the purple wildfire was the heat of the sun packed in a small space. They could burn anything to ashes within seconds.
All the purple wildfires, together, exponentially increased the temperature of the space to a thousand degrees. The moisture in the atmosphere evaporated. The heat flare made sight almost impossible. Austin could just make out the dim outline of Roger and his swarm of purple wildfires.
"Ha ha ha, Austin! This is the fiercest attack in my techniques. I have kept this skill aside especially for you. It's actually your pleasure to turn to dust under my most powerful attack." Roger mocked.
The thick palm-size purple wildfires occupied the space around Austin, suffocating him. The fearsome high temperature created by the level 7 spear intent overwhelmed Austin. He didn't have a defense ready. The wildfire seemed to have the ability to burn down the sky. There was no way Austin could come out of this alive.
It seemed that Austin was standing in a sea of fire, surrounded by blazing mountains on all sides. Austin's entire body was shaking. It was only going to be a matter of minutes till Austin was burnt to his last cell.
All the audience were shaking their heads in dismay. They sighed and gave up hope of ever seeing Austin alive on the battle ring.
Austin knew that he couldn't resist Roger's attack if he only used the level 7 sword intent. Therefore, he decided to try the level 5 Overlord Body-refining Formula to have a go at Roger and his purple wildfires. The physique strength of level 5 Overlord Body-refining Formula cultivator could resist the attack from a martial artist of the Mysterious Realm. Although Roger's spear skill was quite powerful, Roger's cultivation base was only at the premium stage of Earth Realm. Austin figured that using level 5 Overlord Body-refining Formula could be enough to tackle Roger.
In addition, as long as he called upon the Spiritual Sense Flying Needle at the same time to weaken Roger's spear intent, there was a substantial chance that Austin would succeed.
Just then, Austin suddenly felt the light ball in his elixir field quiver slightly. He could tell that it was feeling joyous.
But why? What for? Was it because...
From his experience, Austin knew that the light ball in his elixir field could not only go out of his body but also absorb masculine energy if it wanted to. The light ball was an entity on its own that acted according to its will.
Thousands of purple wildfires in sight definitely belonged to masculine energy. The light ball could absorb that energy!
Thinking of that, Austin used his mind to call the light ball. "Shmm." The light ball went through his body and suspended itself in front of Austin. It gave off a dazzling, almost blinding golden light.
As soon as it appeared, the light ball began absorbing in copious amounts. It was a glorious sight to look at. It created a swirling eddy of energy and pulled thousands of palm-size purple wildfires towards its center. Austin gradually felt at ease.
Soon enough, all the purple wildfires, which were boundless and had even covered the whole battle ring were all absorbed by the light ball. Without wildfires, the audience were able to see the present scene clear as daylight.
"How could this happen?"
