The Supreme God

Master, there seems to be a presence of some powerful crystals here. I can feel it.
When they approached the door on the right, Violet told Austin excitedly.
Austin had the same feeling as well. There seemed to be something special in the room and it felt like it was closely related to
his spiritual sense. In fact, it seemed that the two things had the same origin.
Spiritual sense power was a special and rare power which was contained in a cultivator's spiritual soul. Compared to the vital
energy which was highly prevalent, spiritual sense was rare and very few people could cultivate it.
Austin could faintly feel that there was an abundance of spiritual sense power in the room.
Without any hesitation, the duo rushed into the room excitedly.
The moment they entered the room, they were shocked.
The room was filled with a brilliant blue light and some sort of smoke seemed to be floating around them. The atmosphere inside
was serene and peaceful.
They felt like they had entered a world full of Buddha statues. These Buddha statues looked mighty and stainless and seemed to
have been made with blue glaze. A faint fragrance matching orchids or musk lingered in the environment, making the whole
room feel like a hermit's house.
Instead of bricks, the wall of the room was made of blue crystals. They emitted an extremely brilliant blue light, which, when
mixed with the floating smoke would fill the whole room with a beautiful haze. There were also faint brittle sounds adorning the
ambiance.
The room looked mysterious and attractive, as if it was from some sort of mythology.
Austin and Violet felt refreshed, calm, and peaceful on entering the room, as if their spiritual souls had been purified.
Austin was also surprised when he felt that his spiritual sense power had improved a little since entering the room.
After he had swallowed the spiritual soul pieces of the little monkey that invaded his soul sea, Austin's spiritual sense power had
extended. It now could cover an area of about four hundred meters around him in diameter.

It was true that such a powerful spiritual sense was remarkable and very few Mysterious Realm cultivators had that much area of
coverage.
However, Austin hadn't made any progress in developing his spiritual sense after that time. In fact, he had no idea how to
cultivate and improve this skill any further.
'It seems that my spiritual sense power can be improved in this room. If I can get these powerful crystals and absorb their
essence, it's the same as finding a way to cultivate my spiritual sense power further!'
Thinking about this, Austin asked Violet gently, "Are these powerful crystals?"
Violet walked closer to the wall and touched the blue crystals on it. She seemed to be highly fascinated by them. "Yes! How
beautiful they are!" she cried out.
She then put a little stress on the wall and within a moment, pulled off a crystal from it. It looked like all those powerful crystals
were merely embedded on the wall.
Then, Austin's gaze shifted towards a big black wood bed in the room. From that piece of furniture, he guessed that they were in
Great Sage Cloud's bedroom now. 'Great Sage Cloud embedded these powerful crystals in his bedroom so that his spiritual soul
could be nourished and get stronger even while he was sleeping.
Wow! These masters' cultivation methods are so costly!' he thought.
According to what Violet had just said and the importance those Medicine Sect members attached to such crystals, Austin could
tell that even a single piece would be extremely valuable and people would scramble crazily to get one.
Compared to vital energy cultivation, spiritual sense power cultivation was much more difficult. Since these crystals could nourish
their spiritual souls, it was obvious that the cultivators would go crazy to acquire them.
Normally, Mysterious Realm cultivators already possessed a certain spiritual sense power. However, with the help of these
crystals, they could improve this power further and reach an advanced level much more easily than without them.
Austin joined Violet and they pulled off all the crystals from the wall as quickly as they could. Austin put all of them inside his
Space Ring. It was almost as if they had never been there.
'Eee? It looks like there is a skeleton on the bed.'

Austin looked at the bed and saw that the quilt was humped slightly, as if it was covering something.
He checked with his spiritual sense and confirmed that it was a skeleton!
Austin lifted the quilt and pushed it aside by vibrating the air around it. He didn't want to touch the darned thing! As he had
expected, a human skeleton was lying in the middle of the bed.
From the wide bones and joints and the length of the skeleton, he guessed that it was a man's skeleton.
"This must be Great Sage Cloud's skeleton," Austin remarked.
"Master, it looks like there are some words written on the bed."
Violet was examining the bed carefully and she found several lines carved on one side of the bed.
Austin looked along the direction Violet was pointing and he saw them too.
The lines seemed to have been inscribed by Great Sage Cloud himself. He had written, "After I have reached the Holy Realm,
nobody was able to match me because of my powerful vital energy. However, when I learned how powerful the Imperial Realm
was, I realized that my power and cultivation base were nothing compared to it. Therefore, I began practicing to break through to
that realm.
Unfortunately, I tried too hard and over exerted myself, and therefore, the energy in my body deviated. The lack of that energy
and the over exertion also caused my hemiplegia. After that, I only had half my vital energy left and I was extremely depressed.
After several years of trying, I was unable to get my energy back and now, I feel like I'm going to die in the Cloud Cave.
If by chance, someone happens to reach this place and read my words, please bury my remains under this bedroom only. He will
get a big reward in return for his efforts."
Only now did Austin understand the true reason behind Great Sage Cloud's death.
'Imperial Realm? What kind of realm is that? I've never even heard of it!'
Austin wondered. He knew that the Mysterious Realm was higher than the Earth Realm, but when it came to any realms above
the former, he knew nothing.

According to Great Sage Cloud, he had already reached the Holy Realm and Imperial Realm was at least one realm higher than
Holy Realm. Clearly, both of those were extremely powerful.
It was the first time that Austin had ever heard about these two realms. However, one thing was clear! These two realms were
higher than the Mysterious Realm. As for how much higher, he had no idea.
Austin smiled when he saw the last line which promised a reward to the person
who buried Great Sage Cloud.
"Sir, are these powerful crystals the big reward you mentioned? If that is the case, I have already gotten the reward. But since
you are such a respected martial arts master, let me fulfill your wish."
With that, Austin pulled out the Violet Royal Sword. He injected his vital energy into the sword and dug a deep hole right in the
middle of the bedroom. Then he transferred Great Sage Cloud's remains into the hole.
When he turned around, he suddenly saw that a silver colored ball about the size of a human fist on the bed where the skeleton
had been.
