The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 503 The Soul-recovering Fruit

After Austin killed the man in black from the Ghost Sect, his eyes rested on the ten corpse generals who had been defeated by him.

The man in black was already dead, and the ten corpse generals stood on the ground. They were motionless, as they didn't receive any order to attack. The black miasmas of the corpses still loomed around. The only difference was that their blood red eyes were now closed.

Austin had subdued ten corpse generals earlier. He was quite familiar with those creatures.

Now these ten corpse generals were lining in front of him. Austin would certainly not let go of them. Their strengths were equivalent to that of ten human cultivators at the premium stage of Earth Realm. They were enough to form a small sect in the Violet Orchid Empire.

At the thought that these corpse generals could add to his force, he immediately looked for the spiritual sense marks on their heads which were left by their last owner. He scraped those off and put marks of his own spiritual sense onto them.

As soon as the new marks were in place, Austin felt that he could totally control the ten corpse generals

"All come up here. Stand in front of me!”

Austin ordered them in his mind. The ten corpse generals dashed towards Austin in a flash.

Austin took out the corpse nourishing bag which hung at his waist and took all the corpse generals into it.

Till now, Austin had about twenty corpse generals in his corpse nourishing bag. That was equivalent to possessing twenty cultivators at the premium stage of Earth Realm. And all of them would listen to his orders.

Austin estimated that the black corpse nourishing bag could hold no more corpse generals. So if next time he had the fortune to get more corpse generals, the corpse nourishing bag would have no space for them.

Suddenly Austin regretted that he had burnt the man in black from the Ghost Sect to ashes. He should have got his corpse nourishing bag first. It was a big loss for him.

Austin tied the corpse nourishing bag back at his waist. After confirming the location of the soul-recovering fruit in his Soul Sea, Austin enabled his bodily movement skill and dashed forward.

He had promised Prince Reuben that he would help him in finding the soul-recovering fruit. Prince Reuben had treated him well and respectably. Austin didn't want to disappoint him.

He had been in the Mysterious Nether World for over ten days. He had one month to finish his task. That meant nearly half of the time had already passed.

According to the information from the Flame Emperor, there was a big lake which was about twenty miles away from the northwest side of the Emperor Library. According to him, the soul-recovering fruit grew beside the lake.

The Wind-commanding Skill enabled him to travel at the speed of 250 meters in a stride. So the journey of ten miles took him only a while. The view that lay before him was that of a boundless lake, with a vast expanse of misty gushing water. Strange looking fishes would occasionally leap out of the water. Austin noticed that they were all fifth or sixth level demonic fishes.

A river moved beside the lake, providing water to it.

The river winded its course from the peak of the mountain at a distance. That seemed to be the place where the journey of the river began. There were about a dozen deep purple plants growing on the riversides. They resembled sunflowers. Each one of them had a fruit in black and white checks that was as big as a thumb. Austin could sense the fragrance of the fruit from far away. The pleasant scent made him feel as if he had taken some magic pills and could walk on air. The indescribable pleasure made him want to give out a cry.

Surely, they were the soul-recovering fruits. Quickly Austin counted them. There were around thirteen of them!

The soul-recovering fruit was a kind of eighth level elixir!

The fruit had extraordinary effects and was used for healing wounds. Generally speaking, a pill refined from the soul-recovering fruits would be worth hundreds of thousands of common vital energy crystals in the market. But one could hardly get one even if he had the money, because soul-recovering fruits were very rare.

Due to the powerful curing effects of the soul-recovering fruit, one who owned a soul-recovering fruit had the guarantee of a long, healthy life. That was why its price was often exorbitantly high. A soul-recovering fruit could even evoke a war among cultivators.

Before the young cultivators entered the Mysterious Nether World, the royal house had given each of them a picture book. It showed them what the soul-recovering fruit looked like. At the sight of the soul- recovering fruits, Austin couldn't help but exclaim in excitement. Though he was completely thrilled, he was in no hurry. He didn't think it was right to speed up to get them, because he noticed the skeletons that spread around the plants. Numerous bones were piled up like small hills near the plants. Austin couldn't tell whether they were bones of humans or demonic beasts. They reflected a chilling bright light which sent a shiver down his spine. The place was haunted by something malicious and fierce. Austin could feel it unmistakably.

A strong, foul smell that was emitted by the piles of bones filled his nostrils, making him want to throw up.

Soon, Austin found that there was a huge shadow hiding in the lush thorn bush behind the soul-recovering fruits. He was able to sense it through his strong spiritual sense. The huge beast emitted a powerful aura that seemed to be locked firmly on the soul-recovering fruits. Austin believed that as soon as he approached the soul-recovering fruits, the huge beast would pounce on him and shred him to pieces. The beast was about one hundred feet long, looking terrifying and horrible. Austin gasped in astonishment and cringed.

He could imagine how the immensely powerful huge beast could attack him and crush him to pieces. That put him under great pressure. A Mysterious Realm or even Sky Realm master would be powerless like an ant, when compared to the beast.

This was the most powerful being he had seen so far. A faint thought struck him. It might be the ancient evil ape that the Flame Emperor had mentioned to him earlier.

The ancient evil ape had the strength that matched a tenth level diabolic beast. It was equivalent to a human Imperial Realm cultivator. Once Austin had reached the medium level of Sky Realm, he got to know that above the Sky Realm of vital energy, it was the Imperial Realm of vital energy.

"Roar!"

The beast let out a blood-curdling howl. Austin felt breathless by the strong aura emanating from the huge beast still hidden in the thorn bush. Its thunderous roar pierced through the sky and shook the earth. The whole space reverberated at the rumbling sound and trembled vehemently. The grass on the ground seemed to bow down while stones and dust flew in all directions in the air. The ground began to shake and Austin felt as if he was in hell.

The water in the lake beside was bubbling turbulently as if it was boiling.

The next moment, the malicious, gigantic beast hiding in the thorn bush took a leap.

The huge shadow which it cast on the ground was ten meters long. The malicious and brutal aura spread like ripples. It seemed as if even the vital energy force between heaven and earth of that place would not dare to come near it. The vital energy force of that area just circled around it and formed a ring. It was a ring of tidal vital energy force and looked extremely bizarre. All this added to the already terrifying appearance of the beast.
