Don't Mess with That Dragon-Chapter 593 - 43 Demon Beast

Austin was naturally unaware of the events occurring behind him.

Leaving Star City, his figure blurred through the void, covering tens of thousands of kilometers without knowing it.

He traversed the Netherworld, soared through clouds, and roamed the nine heavens.

When martial artists in this world reached high realms, it was not without reason that ordinary mortals regarded them as immortal gods.

With one hand, they could shatter the sky, mountains and rivers flowing with blood.

Before the might of those above the Celestial Being level, countless mortals were nothing more than ants.

Even a practitioner at the Void Realm in this world wielded the power to challenge nations. In a world where individual power was infinitely magnified, mortals and cultivators were almost like two different species.

Crrrash!

Who knows how long had passed,

before Austin emerged from the void, finding himself deep within the boundless, wild demon beast mountain range.

The vast wilderness, endless and limitless, was dotted with towering trees that had stood for centuries, twisted and sinister, like demonic giants hidden in the forest harboring unknown lethal threats.

This was the world of demon beasts.

Loose cultivator martial artists from the outside only dared to search the periphery for some cultivation resources and never dared to venture into such places.

This was a forbidden land for humans.

"Hmm? To think a natural formation could produce such terrain, interesting...."

As far as the eye could see, the continuous mountain ridges rose and fell like a soaring dragon.

If it were an ordinary mountain range, no matter how beautiful, it would hold no interest to a cultivator.

But this continuous mountain range was different, for in its deep earth veins lay a large spirit vein, stretching for thousands of miles.

This spirit vein was like the finishing touch on a dragon, giving the winding mountains endless vitality.

"Good, this place is indeed a great place for cultivation!"

At present,

Austin's current incarnation was no more than at the pinnacle of the Netherworld Realm.

Coupled with acquiring the legacy of the Reincarnation Swordmaster, he needed to study it thoroughly to break through while seeking an opportunity to unravel the origins of the space-time law.

Just as he was about to land,

suddenly,

Rumble!!!

It was as if the earth veins had fractured, a violent tremor emanated from the depths of the earth. Accompanied by the boiling ancient mountain range, clanging sounds rang out, boulders fell, dust swirled, and murderous auras soared to the heavens, staining half the sky a crimson red.

"Roar!!!"

"Humans, get out of my territory!"

A terrifying aura swept like a tidal wave,

a massive demon beast burst from the earth, like a small mountain. Five tails swayed high in the sky behind it, scarlet eyes like millstones, and a murderous aura shook the heavens.

The demon beast fixed its gaze on the sky where Austin was, its cold eyes flashing, its majestic and terrifying aura making all demon beasts within a ten-mile radius tremble with fear.

"I wondered why no demon beasts occupied this place, turns out they were hidden underground..."

Austin murmured softly, ignoring the dominant demon beast's devouring gaze.

He looked indifferently at the massive form of the demon beast below, his voice calm as he spoke:

"This place, I've taken a liking to, if you don't wish to die, leave immediately!"

Since obtaining this body through possession, Austin's aim had always been clear.

Head to Star City, seek the direct legacy of the Reincarnation Swordmaster that leads to the peak of martial arts, compensate for the shortcomings of Plum Blossom Divination, enhance realm cultivation, and leverage the Reincarnation Swordmaster's path to see if he could gain insights into the original laws of time and space.

Once his realm advanced, he would head to the fallen ruins of the Celestial Secret Palace to seek the inheritance of the Celestial Secret Dao.

Based on the future information observed that day, the era of the Immortal contention was expected to officially begin soon.

Meanwhile, the chess pieces he had laid down would naturally serve their purpose in the future.

Now that the legacy of the Reincarnation Swordmaster had been obtained,

there were no secrets left in the realms of Celestial Being, Dharma Aspect, and Venerable before him. As long as resources were sufficient, he could rapidly advance his cultivation within a short time.

The place where spiritual energy converged in the mountains and rivers ahead was clearly the most suitable place for him to cultivate.

As for the original owner of this place....

Thousands or tens of thousands of years ago, this place wasn't owned by the demon beast lord before him, was it?

Whoever wielded the greater power naturally claimed this spiritual land.

The demon beast lord before him, with an aura vast as the sea, had at least half a foot into the realm of the Celestial Being.

But,

so what?

Austin naturally had the confidence to deal with it.

"Roar!!!"

Austin's aloof posture completely enraged the vast demon beast lord.

"Damn human, no.... this aura... damn weed spirit, you're courting death!!!"

The beast's millstone-sized pupils widened as if it saw something unbelievable.

Although shocked, it couldn't hide the anger in its heart.

Even a mere weed that had gained a path dared to offend its majesty.

This was courting death!!!

With an angry roar, a terrifying aura as vast as the ocean swept, and the five tails behind it swayed in the void, causing the space to quiver and sway like glass.

Simultaneously, black flames erupted from its body,

its entire form enflamed, warping the surrounding void.

Rumble!!!

The surrounding mountainous land suddenly collapsed,

and the colossal body of the demon beast soared skyward, like a black meteor, carrying boundless power as it crashed down towards Austin in the air.

The surrounding flames even appeared to distort space, stagnating the air!

Space locked in at this moment,

there was nowhere to escape, no way to avoid!

The overwhelming force wiped out everything, extinguishing all life.

The entire world dimmed at this moment, somber clouds shrouded the sky as though about to press down.

"Why bother."

Austin shook his head slightly, facing the perilous situation as if it were as routine as eating and drinking, without a trace of tension.

"Such a place where spiritual energy gathers isn't easy to find; it could save me half a year's effort. I can't let you ruin my cultivation site."

A sigh determined the fate of the fierce demon beast lord before him.

Buzz!!!

The clear sound of a sword echoed through the world,

Austin seemed to make no move, yet in the elusive void arose, illusory and unpredictable, shapeless, and formless!

A ray of sword light emerged from the void, as if it were a dream or an illusion, carrying an unreal feeling.

Then,

A dazzling brilliance that words could hardly describe in its fullest erupted from the ground, sweeping the heavens and the earth. Wherever the sword light struck, everything crumbled, the void shattered layer by layer.

The demon beast lord, terrified, attempted to dodge,

yet,

found itself frozen in the air!

Time, it seemed, had frozen at that moment!
