The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 4998

Meanwhile, the three Lords of Darkness continued tracking Austin and the fire source beast. While on their quest, they discovered even more forks on the road.

In fact, there were actually tens of thousands of them!

At that moment, the Lords of Darkness were starting to become more and more confused. Surely, they didn't know where the twists and turns would lead them to.

Baffled, the three Lords of Darkness looked left and right as they didn't know which path to take.

However, as they ventured farther, they maintained contact with each other using their special secret techniques so that they would know where each of them was.

"This Fiery Eye is completely a giant and elaborate maze. I don't even know where I am now,"

one of the Lords of Darkness informed the other two.

"Same here. I'm just as lost you. I think I've been through a few thousand forks by now, and I still don't know where I'm headed.

This is madness! It's frustrating! Each crossing I enter branches out to another.

Plus, my spiritual sense can't reach farther than these junctions. So, I don't know where these roads will lead to.

We have crossed multiple junctions already, and yet, we still haven't found the whereabouts of the fire source beast or Austin,"

one of the Lords of Darkness cut in.

"I'm in the same puzzle as you guys!

This Fiery Eye is making me completely muddled. This place is very disordered.

Strange, isn't it? How could there be such a peculiar place in the Absolute Space Sea? Even the three of us can't figure things out here. What are we going to do?" the third Lord of Darkness asked his companions.

Then, he furrowed his eyebrows and remarked, "Hmm... Something about this doesn't sit well with me."

He rubbed his chin in deep thought, skeptic of his surroundings.

"Hah! Perhaps, there are some secrets hidden around here somewhere!"

one of them proposed.

"Look, even if there was one, how are we going to find it? Think about it. Should we even continue chasing after the fire source beast and Austin?"

another Lord of Darkness asked frustratingly.

"How are we even going to go after them when we can't even sense their auras now?

We don't even have a clue on what to do next.

As of now, we have no idea where Austin and the fire source beast are.

In addition, this maze is making me insane! We can't even figure a way out of this odd maze!"

the third Lord of Darkness sighed in dismay.

"What do you suggest, then? Should we continue searching for them here?

Or should we go out instead?"

one of them asked.

"We weren't prepared for this because we went after them in a hurry!

Either way, I think it's best to focus our minds and energy and think of a way on how we could get out of here.

Then, we will explore the Fiery Eye once we are properly equipped.

I can tell that this place holds a lot of mystery. I think it has secrets that would definitely surprise us.

Therefore, we must be extra cautious if we come across this place again. For now, I suggest that we retreat,"

one of the Lords of Darkness rationally offered the idea to his companions.

"Yes, I second the motion."

The other two nodded their heads in agreement.

Not long after, the three Lords of Darkness reached an understanding and left the Fiery Eye immediately.

However, the path that led to the exit was also complicated―they still had a hard time tracking their steps as they got out.

Fortunately, the Lords of Darkness were powerful. They had cultivated countless cultivation methods and secret techniques from the darkness race.

All three of them were quick to think on their feet and remarkable in their own way.

Being the wise and cerebral lords that they were, they left marks for them to follow before they started following their targets. With this, they could easily trace their path once they needed to get back.

Using very brilliant methods, they had created indelible marks on their path. These marks were adhered to the ground really well, making them hard to erase.

After tracing their trodden path, they managed to leave the Fiery Eye and return to the Eight Fires Valley.

"Look! The three Lords of Darkness have come out!"

At that moment, dozens of demon guards of darkness just outside the valley had immediately reorganized their silhouettes. They were surprised to see the three Lords of Darkness coming out of the Fiery Eye. At once, all of them approached their leaders and greeted them.

"My lords, were you able to get Austin and the fire source beast?"

one of the demon guards of darkness politely asked.

He, along with all the other members of the darkness race, firmly believed that they would succeed in catching them once they acted on it.
