Chapter 246 Into The Premium Stage Of Earth Realm (Part One)
Austin was sitting in the room and his mind was a complete blank at that moment. It was almost as if he was not a person but
some other non-animate object. Silver vital energy covered his entire body and inside of it, a huge amount of vital energy was
flowing around powerfully like a great river.
The flow of the silver vital energy was condensed from the energy of the Great Sage Cloud. Since the Great Sage had been at
the Holy Realm, his vital energy was obviously much stronger than Austin's. Whenever the silver vital energy met the gold vital
energy inside Austin's body, the gold one would retreat back to his elixir field.
However, its retreat did not imply that the light golden vital energy Austin's Golden Sun Scripture had produced was at a lower
grade than the silver vital energy of the Great Sage Cloud. In fact, both of these energies possessed the same intensity but
Austin had just begun to practice his scripture while the Great Sage Cloud was extremely advanced. Just like a talented kid
could not defeat an adult, Austin's early stage energy was less developed than Great Sage's advanced vital energy.
However, Austin's body did not reject the external energy like tissue rejecting foreign object. On the contrary, it gradually
assimilated the entire energy bit by bit and nourished every single cell of his body. With time, this external energy became a part
of his body.
The Great Sage Cloud had mastered his energy and especially prepared it for a youngster from the next generation. This meant
that the energy would have become a part of anyone who was lucky enough to find it and his body would not reject it.
Therefore, it wasn't long before Austin sensed that the silver energy flowing inside his meridian was combining with his own
golden energy. His body wasn't rejecting it and it was becoming a part of him. In fact, it would have been difficult to tell them
apart now if they weren't of different colors. The silver and gold strands shone at the same time inside him and nourished him
completely.
The glitter this combination was exuding did not confine itself to the inside of his body, but rather, it surfaced out to his skin and
he began to glow.
Violet saw to her great astonishment that the silver light surrounding Austin's body was slowly getting absorbed and becoming
faint. Suddenly, it vanished in a second and the next moment, a combination of the two energies came out of Austin's body and
his aura became stronger. The light was now shining alternatively in silver and gold.
As if oblivious to these changes, Austin sat still like a god. His entire body was bathed in the double colored light and it was
shining brightly and dazzlingly. A deep tune could now be heard faintly as if some ancient god was chanting in the sky.
Austin, seemed to have become a god right now, giving off silver and golden strands of energy which pervaded the whole room
as if it was a fairy land.
Violet, standing not far from her master, was stunned. 'What cultivation method is my master practicing right now? What is
happening around him is a virtual miracle? How is that possible? Is it because of the Great Sage?' she was wondering.
In the end, the calm and placid environment suddenly changed.
Boom!
A powerful and low sound burst out of Austin's body. All of a sudden, Violet felt that some invisible force was spreading out from
his master's body. It was so strong that even she could not bear it.
Astonished, Violet started her bodily movement skills and quickly rushed out of the room. Even she had reacted quickly, she was
still affected by the bursting wave of that invisible force and her chest seemed to hurt.
'My master has broken through into the premium stage of Earth Realm!' Violet could not believe even her own self, but Austin
really had broken through.
What's more, judging by the waves Austin's body had given off, it looked like he was stronger than other cultivators at the
premium stage of Earth Realm. He had, after all, absorbed the entire vital energy that the Great Sage Cloud had offered as a
reward. Not only was that great in quantity, it was also of a much higher quality than the vital energy of an ordinary cultivator.
Inside the room, Austin finished his cultivation and stood up. After examining his body for a while, he murmured to himself, "On
absorbing the silver vital energy of the Great Sage Cloud, I actually broke through two levels in succession without any
intermediate lag. Now I am at the premium stage of Earth Realm!"
He clenched lightly his fists and sensed his strength, which was dozens of times stronger than he had been till now. Austin was
extremely satisfied with the result.
At that moment, Austin was really grateful to the Great Sage Cloud.
After a short while, Austin bowed to the tomb of the Great Sage Cloud and offered his gratitude, "Great Sage, I am so lucky to
have obtained your heritage and absorbed your vital energy. Although I was never lucky enough to meet you in person and I
never had the chance to learn from you, I still regard you as my master."
Finishing his sentence, he bowed again. After that, he walked out of the room.
"Congratulations, master! So many congratulations for breaking through the premium stage of Earth Realm." Violet excitedly told
Austin.
Violet also sensed her master had improved greatly this time. After all, she was Austin's slave and the higher Austin's cultivation
base was, the higher would be the benefits she would reap.
Now Austin's cultivation base was several levels higher than that of Violet. She was willing to completely follow him everywhere
now.
In this world of Martial Artists, only strength decided everything. The cultivators with greater powers earned respect. The weak
had to live under the shadow and protection of these strong people to live a safe life.
Violet, of course, understood this point.
"Yes, yes, thank you. Let's go. We have stayed here for too long. The fight between those warriors at the Mysterious Realm and
the two beasts must have ended now. We cannot stay here any longer," Austin told Violet.
The two of them walked outside and traced the path they had followed while coming there and very soon, reached the place
where the three roads intersected.
