Austin came across two Taoist nuns who were surrounded by five crocodiles.
The five crocodiles were all fifth level demonic beasts. They snarled their teeth and viciously moved about their tails that looked like they could hurt as hard as a mace made from steel. They roared, howled and attacked the nuns with an intent to kill.
Austin observed the two nuns. The elder one seemed to be at the premium stage of Earth Realm, and the younger one's cultivation base was at the medium stage of Earth Realm.
As far as Austin knew, a fifth level demonic beast's strength was equivalent to that of a human at the medium stage or premium stage of the Earth Realm.
What made things worse was that all the five crocodiles attacked the two together. At the moment, the two nuns were completely at a disadvantage. Their lives were at peril. The younger one who looked around seventeen years old was hit on the shoulder by the tail of a crocodile. Her skin flayed open and her flesh tore apart as blood began to ooze out from the wound.
Her clothes were shattered by the hit, revealing her fair-skinned slender right arm. Her delicate petite body was almost laid bare when a breeze swept past her.
"Sister! I can't hold on for another second. I won't be able to get out. It's best that you leave me behind! You go first!" cried the young girl.
The elder nun was still fighting fiercely to block the crocodiles' attacks. Her cultivation base of vital energy and strength was solid and she was capable in protecting herself for now.
Besides, she was quite agile in moving about herself. She leaped left and right and managed to dodge the crocodiles deftly. The crocodiles were getting frustrated after missing her by a hair's breadth. Eventually, she managed to successfully block three of them.
Although she was still on the verge of losing, she believed in herself and thought she could get rid of them. If she fought them while looking for a retreat, she just might be able to escape.
"Nonsense! Don't ever say that again. There is no way that I leave you behind fending for yourself," The elder girl replied, appalled by what her sister had suggested.
Standing about a hundred feet from them, Austin could see everything as clear as crystal through his spiritual sense power. He was touched by their sisterhood.
Suddenly, the elder nun cried out, "Careful!"
"Ah!"
The young girl shrieked. While talking to her sister, she was momentarily distracted from the fight. One of the crocodiles took the chance and leapt into the air, splashing mud all over. It opened its huge mouth and with its ragged, sharp teeth pouncing on her.
At the same time, another crocodile saw the opportunity to take advantage of her vulnerability. It swayed its huge mace-like tail and swept it towards the young girl's feet to knock her down.
When the young girl came back to her senses, the fifth grade crocodile was already above her head. It was too late to dodge it. She had to come up with a defense strategy.
The girl knew that she was doomed this time. She heaved a sigh and closed her eyes, waiting for the crocodile to finish her off.
Just at that moment, she suddenly felt a force that pushed her from below. She was thrust into the air and flew backwards, falling about a dozen meters away.
Thud!
She fell with a deafening sound.
"Are you okay?" the elder nun asked.
