After stepping out of their cars, all of them inadvertently looked up the Karakoram Mountain in chorus.
From afar, the towering mountain looked like an armored horse galloping across the sky as clouds circled around it.
Almost everyone felt that they were dwarfed by the huge mountain in front of them.
Even Austin was no exception.
"The Karakoram Mountain is indeed as huge as the legends say.
But as strong as I currently am, I still can't help but feel so helpless and small..."
Austin was kind of confused.
In the past, it was Austin who made the Fallen Immortal Cosmos felt small.
Austin was effortlessly able to destroy hundreds of worlds, let alone mountains.
And yet, why did he felt weak when he faced these mere mountains?
"Is it because my strength has been suppressed here on Earth?
But my spiritual sense and my spiritual soul have not been suppressed at all."
Austin was puzzled.
'The Land of Earth Dragons!'
Austin's gaze subconsciously drifted towards a faraway place.
While overlooking the Karakoram Mountain, he knew that this was a place technically known as the Land of Earth Dragons among the Earth Masters.
According to records from ancient books, the Land of Earth Dragons was the most valuable piece of land out there!
Not long ago, Austin had been studying all the ancient books about the customs and culture of the Brilliant Kingdom. These books contained some information regarding the Land of Earth Dragons.
Those ancient books were mostly an incoherent mess, and Austin didn't get all the information written on them.
However, Austin's spiritual sense and soul perception were so extraordinary that he had already achieved something in the aspect of exploring the luck of all kinds of landforms.
Therefore, Austin had kept this Land of Earth Dragons in mind, and he had formed it in his Soul Sea many times.
With this knowledge in hand, Austin could immediately tell that the Karakoram Mountain was the place where the Land of Earth Dragons was located!
Out of nowhere, Austin had an epiphany. He remembered the records of the Karakoram Mountain from some ancient books of geomancy.
The Karakoram Mountain was the most ancient mountain in the Brilliant Kingdom.
Some ancient books had even stated that the Karakoram Mountain was the origin of all the mountains and the earth dragons on the Earth!
The Karakoram Mountain held significant importance in the history of the Brilliant Kingdom.
While Austin was still in awe, the leader of the Emerald Sect called all the people together.
"Everyone, I have just discussed with the leaders of several other sects in the Brilliant Kingdom and we made a decision together.
A contest is going to be held this year after our meeting.
Hiram a lot of encouragement and showed his care. But today, he was indifferent to him.
This made Hiram hate Austin even more.
He thought it was all Austin's fault.
"Elders, I have something else I need to do. You go to the venue first and I'll be there later."
Austin was once again attracted by the unique terrain of the Karakoram Mountain.
Austin was experienced when it came to traversing and detecting terrains.
It was the perfect chance to explore the Land of Earth Dragons, which was the most precious terrain of all. He might never get the chance again to explore the precious land thoroughly.
Excitement immediately rushed in to fill every inch in his body.
Wasting no time, Austin took one big stride and he was already in the Karakoram Mountain in a flash. He then disappeared completely.
"Master, where are you going?! Master, wait for me!
Bad master! Why don't you talk to me?"
Seeing this, Yulia was shocked. She chased after Austin in the direction he disappeared, while tears filled her eyes.
But Austin was nowhere to be found.
At last, Yulia stopped and cried loudly.
Her grandpa quickly came forward and comforted her.
Seeing this, Hiram took the opportunity to talk to Yulia.
"Yulia, although Mr. Lin is better at martial arts, he is an outsider after all.
We don't even know what his intentions are. We can't tell for sure what he wants to get from us. Yulia, you should..."
"Shut up! Don't speak ill of my master.
He is my master. Why is he an outsider? You are an outsider!"
Yulia was in a rage. She glared at Hiram angrily.
Hearing what she said, Hiram blushed and clenched his fists.
"Humph! Brat, no matter how powerful you are, Yulia is my girl. I will never let you get her!"
Hiram stared at the direction where Austin had disappeared with anger in his eyes.
