The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 382

In a valley of huge mountains on the outskirts of the imperial capital city.

Austin was completely immersed in cultivating stage five of Overlord Body-refining Formula. He had been bathing in the liquid in a large iron tub for two hours.

All of a sudden, he opened his eyes.

"Aaroooo!"

Austin raised his head and made a long howl. He could feel the indomitable force much like that of an angry monster beast that seemed to have been trapped in his body, running and roaring through each and every cell in his body.

Austin's body revolted in this sudden intimidation caused by the pills and then in due course of time, the energy contained in the pills was finally absorbed by him. It was then refined in his body. Finally, Austin had achieved cultivating stage five of Overlord Body-refining Formula!

At that moment, Austin was full of vigor and he could feel it through his entire body, including his eyes. When he moved, his skin buzzed with energy which was so strong that it produced clanks. There was also energy surging through all his organs, like gushing through the mountains.

Flash!

In an instant, Austin flew up from the iron tub and landed on the ground made of stones. As he jumped up from the tub, thousands of water swords came out of the tub and flung into the air.

Austin stood there naked, completely oblivious to the state he was in. He was still imbibing and internalizing the superpower he had invoked in his body. He clenched his fists slightly. Immediately all the joints of his body clattered and the muscles under his skin swelled up magnanimously.

He punched in the air making the wind literally split with the thrust of his fist. Echoing his impact, three giant stones weighing up to 2 tons each exploded in succession, their fragments getting scattered in all direction. The birds on the trees flapped their wings, and sat back again on the branches clinging their wings to their petite frames, looking terrified.

Austin felt like he was a monster beast in the human frame. He felt every bit of the infinite energy inside his body.

A cultivator in stage five of Overlord Body-refining Formula could produce power as heavy as 15000 pounds barehanded, without using his internal energy. Austin was confident that he was capable of slaughtering almost all the Earth Realm cultivators by using only the power that he has imbibed in his flesh.

After Austin had tested the power in his flesh, he began to relax his body. Then all of a sudden, seven strokes sword radiance appeared in his eyes. Soon, invisible intense sword aura radiated from his body at an amazing speed.

It ejected to the air, the ground, the bushes, the stones, and the trees. It was invincible and unstoppable by the earthly forces.

"Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!"

The sword aura just smashed everything that came in contact with it, including the stone particles.

When Austin was cultivating the stage five Overlord Body-refining Formula, he had very wisely used what he learned from his previous experience and seized the opportunity to refine his sword intent, since his mind was in an extremely sharp state at the moment. Surprisingly, he comprehended level seven sword intent!

It could be said that if Austin was to combat with the likes of Marvin and Billy once more, he could take them down merely with his level seven sword intent, without even having to make any other efforts.

Every time Austin tried cultivating Overlord Body-refining Formula, he could gain a deeper comprehension of the sword intent. It was, actually, a windfall that Austin hadn't expected. But he had been thinking about the theory behind it.

The flesh was home to the soul. If the flesh grew stronger and more vigorous, then it could exert a positive effect on the soul. In turn, the soul would have more potential.

A cultivator's understanding of "intent" was, in general, a kind of mental power, which was decided by the soul.

Therefore, Austin realized that the stronger his flesh became, the easier it would be for him to cultivate spiritual power and vital energy.

With this in mind, Austin forged ahead with his future cultivation method, with an aim to improve his flesh, vital energy and spiritual sense at the same time. All three factors should go hand in hand and be complementary to each other to make the process of cultivation successful. The time spent in cultivating his flesh shouldn't be considered as a waste of time regarding vital energy and spiritual sense cultivation.

After Austin had completed Overlord Body-refining Formula, he decided to halt his flesh cultivation on a momentary basis.

In terms of vital energy cultivation, the premium stage of the Earth Realm seemed to be close to the Mysterious Realm. However, in reality, the gap between the two realms was quite big.

When Austin was cultivating the Overlord Body-refining Formula, Violet overlooked him from a distance in order to protect him. After he finished cultivating, Violet also returned to him.

After she had got the powerful crystals in the Cloud Cave, she spent most of her time in the Illusion Bead. She cultivated there day and night, and now her demonic power was as strong as the premium stage of Earth Realm cultivator in the human world.

Moreover, Violet's spiritual sense could cover as far as 2 km, which was stronger than most of that of Mysterious Realm cultivators, though it was still dwarfed by Austin's spiritual sense.

"Ahem, master, our naughty friend doesn't want to stay inside any longer. It seeks to be freed!"

Violet giggled.

"Oh, really? Then let it out. It's a pleasant day today!"

Austin answered with a smile.

Violet made a gesture with her hand, and the Illusion Bead appeared in her palm. Then she rubbed the bead.

A tiny beast appeared in front of them. It clenched its paws and squeaked toward Austin as if complaining about this ruthless treatment to him.

The tiny beast was a gnome.

When they had been in trouble in the Ghost Valley, he asked Violet to try hiding gnome in the Illusion Bead.

Violet obeyed. She had successfully hidden gnome into the Illusion Bead. Maybe because gnome was also one beast in its nature, it could get into the Illusion Bead like Violet.

Other species, for example, Austin, would never be able to hide in Violet's Illusion Bead.
