The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 453 An Old Acquaintance

The footsteps seemed light on the ground as Austin and the two nuns continued to advance quickly. After two hours, they suddenly realized that the air was filled with herbal fragrances, which the wind helped spread around.

They paused for a bit, then Iris looked ahead in the distance.

"The Medicine Valley is now in sight, some way ahead!" Iris said cheerfully. Austin nodded and they resumed their path.

They quickened their pace even more and after half an hour, they arrived in front of a lush, green valley.

Three mountains surrounded the valley, and towering trees that reached up to the sky formed a natural barrier around the valley which covered it and prevented it from being too noticeable.

Fragrances from various herbs flowed forth from the valley and seeped into their nostrils. The three of them felt refreshed with the pleasing scents. They felt that their vital energy flowed more smoothly within them after they breathed in the fragrant air.

It was clear that the elixirs from the valley were of the best quality. After a while, Austin activated his spiritual sense power. He found that a few cultivators were already inside the valley. It turned out that they weren't the first to get inside.

At the same time, through his spiritual sense power, Austin also sensed ominous scents that wafted throughout the valley. The scents came from the demonic and diabolic beasts, and Austin gauged that they were extremely powerful.

It seemed that what Iris told him was true. In the Mysterious Nether World, the demonic and diabolic beasts guarded all the precious elixirs and treasures.

If he wanted to get the elixirs and treasures, he had to kill the demonic and diabolic beasts first.

"Let's get inside, or all the good things will fall to other people's hands," Austin said and waved a hand to his two companions.

In a blink of an eye, Austin had rushed forth.

With the help of the Wind-commanding Skill, Austin was able to traverse smoothly, casting shadows that flashed on the ground. He had left Iris and Anna far behind him in just a split second.

"Iris, is he intentionally showing off in front of us?" Anna frowned

She bit her lower lip as she tried hard to operate her vital energy force. She did her best bodily movement skill and tried hard to catch up to Austin, as she didn't want to lose track of him.

Iris and Anna knew that the Medicine Valley was home to invaluable elixirs, but also a place for extremely powerful demonic and diabolic beasts. Thus, they were very clear that when they were with Austin, they would be safer than if they were alone.

Otherwise, no matter how many elixirs they got—if they had no one to protect them, they were as good as gone.

"Anna, hush down! We should thank god that Austin agreed to take us with him. He is a powerful warrior.

It's us who needs his help--and we are only a burden to him, don't you understand? He has no obligation to help us. We should be lucky to have met him," Iris chided in a low voice.

Anna was still very young and innocent. She had a simple mind and didn't know the ways of the world. Although sometimes, her childishness made Iris mad.

If Austin heard what Anna said about him and felt irritated, he might leave and it would certainly be a great loss for them. They wouldn't gather as many treasures as they could have.

However, Iris would never know that Austin already heard them. His spiritual sense power never missed anything that happened around.

A laugh escaped Austin’s lips.

In fact, there was a valid reason behind his improvement of speed.

As soon as they arrived at the valley, Violet sent Austin a message in the Illusion Bead.

The gnome who stayed with Violet in the Illusion Bead seemed to have known that they had come to a valley that was full of elixirs. It wanted to come out and hunt treasures.

This reminded Austin of the gnomes specialty. The gnome was good at finding all kinds of natural materials and treasures.

Thus, Austin immediately sped up and distanced himself from Iris and Anna. After a while, he came to a turn.

The Illusion Bead shook a little, then Violet and the gnome jumped out. Violet knew why Austin had done this--he didn't want others to know about both her and the gnome's existence.

Therefore, she carried the gnome and jumped into the bushes as soon as she came out of the Illusion Bead.

After a while, Violet reverted back to her original form--a small cute fox. "Master, I will make the gnome lead the way to find more treasures. We will follow you closely behind.

If we find anything, 1 will tell you."

Violet was able to communicate with Austin through telepathy. It was quite convenient, as they didn't have to speak and their thoughts just got through the moment they had them.

After Violet and gnome disappeared in the bushes, Austin stopped and stayed there to wait for Iris and Anna.

In a few moments, Iris and Anna finally arrived.

A sullen expression weighed down Anna's face.

However, Austin just smiled. He knew that the girl was quite young, so he didn't take it to heart.

After they entered the valley, a vast landscape greeted their eyes. The lands stretched as far and wide as the eyes could see. They didn't expect that the valley was so big and covered such a wide area.

After they went ahead for about two hundred meters, they suddenly heard fighting noises that came from their left side.

Austin directed his spiritual sense power to the northwest to see what was happening. He found that five warriors were engaged in a fierce fight against a demonic beast.

"Let's go have a look."

They turned left and passed a col before they saw five young warriors-- three were male and the other two were female. They were in a battle against a gigantic boar on a hummock.

The boar was about two meters high and five meters long, with a rough-skinned bulky body. His two tusks glittered coldly in the light. The hair on its body were stiff and straight like steel needles.

Austin assumed that the boar was a level four demonic beast.

Among the five warriors who tried to go up against the beast, one was at the premium stage of Earth Realm, two were at the medium stage of Earth Realm, and the remaining two were at the preliminary stage of Earth Realm.

However, only three of them fought against the boar. The other two just stood aside and watched

Two of the three warriors in battle were at the preliminary stage of Earth Realm, and the other one was at the medium stage of Earth Realm.

Meanwhile, Austin saw that the warrior who was at the medium stage of Earth Realm just got in that level. His vital energy in his new level was still quite weak. He obviously hadn't stabilized yet in the medium stage of Earth Realm.

Austin came closer, and was stunned when he saw the warriors’ faces. "It's them!" he exclaimed.

"It's you, Austin!" the only female warrior in the fight cried out excitedly. It really was a small world.

Austin never expected to meet an old acquaintance under such circumstances.

It turned out that the female warrior was Denali!

Back when Austin was a grunt disciple, he had saved Denali once.

He remembered on that night, Rafat, who sneaked up into the Sun Sect and wanted to use Denali to cultivate some kind of wicked martial arts skill, had carried her into the woods. Unfortunately for him, Austin noticed them and felt something strange--so he secretly followed them all along, and finally saved Denali from him.

After that however, they met less and there weren't as many occasions that they could meet each other. Gradually, Austin had almost forgotten her.

It never occurred to him that he would meet her again in the Mysterious Nether World.

"Austin, don't you remember me?

I'm Denali!"

Denali grappled with the boar, but she ran to Austin excitedly when she saw him. Austin was the man who saved her life, and rescued her from the torture of the bastard Rafat. She couldn't imagine the terrible consequences if Rafat had gotten his way.

Even if Austin didn't quite remember her, she never forgot about him. It was why when she saw him, she ran towards him regardless of her situation.
