Chapter 499 The Vital Energy Essence Left By The Flame Emperor

The news that the Flame Emperor came from an outside world didn't surprise Austin much, because he had also lived on earth before passing through the tunnel of time and space to land in the Prime Martial World. As a time traveler, he knew well that the Prime Martial World was not the only world in which humans lived in.

"The world I lived in before was called the Divine Continent," the Flame Emperor said.

He raised his index finger, and a silver stream of flowing gloss poured into Austin's Soul Sea. Pictures depicting the Divine Continent scrolled continuously behind Austin's eyelids like a film show.

Austin could see the Divine Continent clearly. It was a continent with much more spiritual energy of heaven and earth than the Prime Martial World. All the warriors there were powerful enough to cut off rivers and crumble mountains. A fierce fight between any two of them could leave a crack in thousands of miles of the earth and crash the very canopy of the heavens itself, leaving strips of horrible empty space rifts stretching several thousand miles across the sky.

For the warriors living in the Divine Continent, the ultimate goal was to exceed the Mortal Realm and enter the Immortal Realm!

In fact, many of them had already exceeded the empty space through cultivation and flew up to the Immortal Realm.

Just looking at the Divine Continent in his mind roused Austin's enthusiasm. He felt attracted to the continent.

"Senior, the warriors on the Divine Continent are so powerful in cultivation base."

He sighed with admiration.

"Well, indeed. In your Prime Martial World, a warrior is considered successful if his cultivation base is in the level of the Sky Realm.

But in the Divine Continent, any warrior who isn't able to reach the Sky Realm in his cultivation base before the age of ten is deemed poor in martial arts. He won't accomplish anything in martial arts his whole life," the Flame Emperor said, smiling.

Austin gasped in surprise. "Reach the Sky Realm in cultivation base before the age of ten?"

It was too incredible to believe.

He had just reached the medium stage of Mysterious Realm in his cultivation base at the age of seventeen. If he had been born in the Divine Continent, he wouldn't even be in the bottom rung of warriors.

The thought made Austin break out in cold sweat.

As the proverb went, "No matter how strong you are, there is always someone stronger!"

"So, how did you leave the Divine Continent, Senior?"

Austin asked curiously.

"Listen to me carefully."

The Flame Emperor sighed as he recalled his past.

"All the warriors on the Divine Continent yearn to enter the legendary fairyland, Immortal Realm. That is their ultimate goal of martial practice.

Generally speaking, two methods are adopted to enter the Immortal Realm.

In the first method, cultivators have to practice until they reach the Realm of Elixir Gathering, af

mperor's voice shook Austin out of his reverie.

He quickly calmed himself down and silently practiced the Golden Sun Scripture in his body.

After a few moments, there was a zipping sound.

All the threads of vital energy essence strewn around the forest flew at him from all directions at once.

When they made contact with his skin, they endlessly melted into every pore and meridian point of his body.

Austin could feel his body being filled with wisdom and enlightenment.

Soon, the essence of vital energy flew into every energy meridian like a sweeping and surging river.

All his energy meridians swelled like balloons as the essence continued to pour in with a hissing sound.

These sounds indicated the continuous ripping of his energy meridians.

They were breaking and expanding so that they could hold more vital energy than they could before.

At last, all the vital energy poured into the elixir field after circulating his body. Austin's elixir field had already been the size of two footballs.

Now, with the absorption of all this vital energy, it was glowing like a ball of light and kept getting bigger and bigger.

Meanwhile, Austin felt the forest around him dissolving. The tall trees, the thick vines in the shape of forearms, and even the birds singing in the woods were all slowly melting and decomposing before forming threads of vital energy that flooded into his body.

The entire thick forest was disappearing, leaving behind a vast expanse of empty space.

Only strips of vital energy were left in the air.

As the absorption process continued, Austin could feel that he was somehow beginning to make a breakthrough in his vital energy realm.

Finally, when his absorption reached a critical point, a blast of energy spurted out from his body with a bang.

His whole body convulsed for a moment.

Then, everything was quiet. Austin had reached the premium stage of the Mysterious Realm!
