"There is an Emperor Realm master in the Prime Martial World," Austin murmured.
He then continued to watch the pattern on the wall.
The Emperor Realm master exerted himself while fighting the single-horned humanoid creature. Their battle lasted for three days and three nights. The strong cultivator focused all his strength on his fist and punched the beast. The deadly blow shattered the monster as easily as porcelain.
The painting on the wall expressed the enormous power the Emperor Realm master had exerted, vividly.
Looking at the pattern, Austin felt like he was physically present during that critical moment in the fight.
The strong cultivator had slain the monster, which was much stronger than him with a single blow.
Austin wanted to see more. However, he found that the latter part of the pattern was lost due to the broken wall. Hence, he couldn't see what happened next.
After he was done reading, he was so excited that he couldn't calm down. 'I can't believe it. Such a powerful creature used to live in this deserted mine, and that the human master killed it, ' he exclaimed in his mind.
Austin was impressed by the Emperor Realm master's bravery and strength. He couldn't help but admire and be in awe of the cultivator.
What interested him most was that the Emperor Realm master appearing on the pattern had defeated the beast with his incredible physical strength.
During the whole battle, the master only took advantage of his physical power at the end to deal with that single-horned humanoid creature.
'So he reached the Emperor Realm by cultivating his physical strength, '
Austin speculated in astonishment.
'Although I finished practicing the fifth stage of the Overlord Body-refining Formula, I have just entered the Sky Realm.
But the master in the pattern reached the Emperor Realm. How powerful was his physical strength?
It is most likely that his blow carried hundreds of thousands of pounds of force.'
The thought made Austin exci
it.
He could perceive that the array was old but unique. Since it had been created a long time ago, its power had weakened.
Austin unleashed his spiritual sense and found that the energy cover had several weak spots. 'If I focus on attacking the weak spots, perhaps I can break this array, ' he thought.
He was ignorant about the altar, so he didn't know its value. But the dozens of crystals tempted him to break the array.
Without a second thought, he took out the Purple Vital Stone.
He released his vital energy to activate vital energy and attacked the weak spots of the array with it. "Bang!"
The whole underground lobby started to shake, and the mud on the roof began to fall, bit by bit.
Regardless, Austin kept powering the Purple Vital Stone to hit against the weak spots of the array.
His efforts paid off.
Hours later, he had broken the array, and the energy shield fell apart.
Overjoyed, Austin sprinted forward, and in the blink of an eye, he stood before the altar. He reached out and intended to collect the valuable crystals.
However, just as Austin was about to touch the crystals, a dazzling energy column appeared and flowed toward him.
Caught off guard, Austin didn't have time to overcome the shock he was feeling. The light column collided with him, and Austin felt his head spin.
