Chapter 659 The Ancient Stone Carving

Austin was quite surprised. He hadn't expected the creature to be able to release vital energy to attack, just like cultivators did. He became more cautious and thrust his sword again.

"Clang! Clang..."

As the vital energy sword and the white light collided, the space around vibrated slightly.

Austin had figured out that the creature's competence was similar to that of a level nine diabolic beast. For him, it wasn't a threat at all. But in the beginning, he was shocked by the creature's attack. He wasn't familiar with the surroundings and knew nothing about the creature, so he fought it for a while unaware of its abilities.

Now, he knew the creature's real competence, and that meant he knew how to end the battle soon.

Austin immediately used the Brutal Blast Fist and punched the creature with a stroke of explosive fist force. The creature was going to take the hit. It struggled for quite a while and flapped its wings wildly, trying to fly away towards the depth of the mine.

In moments after it was hit by Austin's fist, it slowed down.

With a dumb thud, the explosive fist force exploded in its body. The creature swayed unsteadily and then fell to the ground, motionless.

Austin went closer to it. He observed the creature and stretched its wings carefully. He wanted to know more about this creature that had scared him out of his wits.

The beast was more than two meters high and covered with gray fur. It had no feathers on its wings. Rather the wings had a rugged skin membrane, making it look more like a huge bat.

"Master, this demonic beast is called the diabolic bat. It's a subterranean species, and hardly seen around. It's one of the rare species.

It's believed that the diabolic bats originate from ancient times. Their power and strength increases as time passes. An adult diabolic bat's competence is much higher than a level ten diabolic beast."

Violet gave him the information he needed.

"Violet, do you know how the power levels of the diabolic beasts are divided? What's the level above level ten diabolic beast?"

Austin asked, filled with curiosity.

He had never heard of the creature and was anxious to know more about the powers of a diabolic beast, especially about the diabolic bat.

"Above the level ten diabolic beast is the Beast Master. According to their competence, the Beast Masters can be divided into three levels, the preliminary level, the medium level and the premium level," Violet answered.

Austin nodded trying to save it all in his memory.

"When a diabolic bat grows up, it will have the adeptness of a p

bit easily.

Austin gasped. 'What the hell is this creature?' he wondered.

'It looks so powerful! Its roar could shake the ground. It's no wonder so many people died," he thought.

In the next pattern, Austin saw a group of people, probably the cultivators who had arrived at the mine after the destruction.

The patterns showed how they began to fight the one-horned creature with human frame.

Although it was alone, it had been able to defeat those cultivators. Each time it attacked, thousands of human cultivators had fallen to the ground.

The patterns that followed were gruesome. They depicted how more and more corpses of cultivators piled up around it and their blood converged into a river, flowing into the distance. The scene looked like one from hell.

'It's surprising that such a thrilling story has been carved on the wall in the mine! The monster was brought out by the miners. Once unleashed, it killed so many human cultivators, ' Austin thought.

He was attracted to the stone carvings in the mine.

He moved ahead and looked at the next picture.

He saw a sturdy man floating down from the sky, and the situation seemed to be reversed.

This man was big and strong with bulging muscles. He looked like a superman!

His eyes shone with a brilliant light and his face looked determined.

Auspicious clouds lingered around him.

'Emperor?

'Emperor? Was this man a cultivator at the Emperor Realm, like the Flame Emperor?'

Austin was taken aback.

'But the Flame Emperor was not from Prime Martial World. He was from the Divine Continent.

I never thought that the Emperor Realm masters also existed in the Prime Martial World, ' he thought. It was something he had not expected.
