The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 562

Austin, Violet and the gnome walked for days in the direction of the Violet Orchid Empire from the outskirts of the Grand Desolation Mountain. During these days, the gnome disappeared from time to time. Austin knew that it was lively by nature, and couldn't stay quiet for a long time.

However he wasn't overly concerned, as the gnome had a unique skill which he and Violet greatly admired. Wherever Austin and Violet went, the gnome was able to easily find them. So after entering the foothills of the Grand Desolation Mountain, Austin allowed the gnome to roam about. But he reminded it to come back to them immediately in case of any danger.

Now once they encountered any level five or six diabolic beasts with a high level of competence, Austin would yield them with the Beast-subduing Skill.

The competence of a level five diabolic beast was equal to that of a cultivator at the medium or premium stage of Earth Realm; while a level six diabolic beast's competence was equal to that of a cultivator of the primary stage of the Mysterious Realm.

Earth Realm and Mysterious Realm cultivators formed the backbone of any powerful sect in the Violet Orchid Empire. Although there were also some Sky Realm cultivators in the dominant power, like the imperial family, the Earth and the Mysterious Realm cultivators were very important.

Austin knew if he could subdue a group of diabolic beasts of level five or six and use them to guard the Austin Palace, he would have a team of his very own. They would make formidable guards and take a burden from his shoulders regarding the safety of his compound.

Although the youngest prince had promised to use all of his efforts to protect the Austin Palace in Austin's absence, building up a team of his own would certainly ensure the safety of the palace.

Therefore, in the last two days, Austin had subdued five level six and twenty level five diabolic beasts in total.

He stored all of them in the beast-subduing bag which the Flame Emperor had given to him.

He estimated that this bag could contain about fifty diabolic beasts. Now since there were already over thirty inside, it could only hold a dozen more at the most.

At noon, Austin, Violet, and the gnome arrived at the far edge of the Grand Desolation Mountain.

Suddenly, they saw several large, darkened clouds drifting slowly in their direction. A storm was drawing near, and the air became alive with static as the energies of nature built up.

After a short while, the sky was darkened over, and the faint sound of thunder could be heard coming from the roiling clouds.

"Oh? It's going to rain!"

Austin murmured, looking up at the dark clouds.

Just then, the rumble rang out and lightning flashed, making the hairs on the back of his neck stand erect in response.

Not far away, a huge tree was struck by a lightning bolt. The massive trunk exploded upon impact and its remains caught on fire.

"What a loud thunder snap!"

Looking at the burning tree, Austin suddenly thought of something, and a smile appeared on his face. Glancing up he saw that bright golden lights seemed to pierce the clouds. Obviously, these were flashes of lightning forming as the storm settled over them.

Austin stared at them with anticipation.

"Rumble..." Several minutes later, with the booming of deafening thunder, lightning crackled.

And the entire land was cowered by thunder and lightning as the electric storm raged overhead.
