Chapter 538 Help Me To Rule The Empire
The Brutal st Fist consisted of eight different fist forces and during its cultivation, Austin spent more
time on the first one, the tearing force.
After sessfullypleting the cultivation of the same, he got a deep understanding about the Brutal
st Fist. What''s more, he was also in prime physical condition which was critical for cultivating fist
skills. Therefore, now he felt much easier as he went on to cultivate the remaining fist forces.
It took him about half a month to cultivate them sessfully, but Austin was able to finish most of the
steps of this skill.
Yet another step remained which allowed a cultivator to unite the eight fist forces into one and produce
an explosive power. Austin hadn''t seeded in mastering this step yet.
But he believed that if he practiced harder, he would be able to master that very soon too.
There were several skills on his agenda right now, which meant he couldn''t spend his entire time on the
same skill. After the Brutal st Fist, Austin began to shift his attention towards a spiritual sense skill

called Demon-creating Skill.
Once mastered, this skill would allow a cultivator to morph a demon out of nowhere into his opponent''s
Soul Sea. The demon would then swallow the opponent''s spiritual sense power and spiritual souls.
It was a very mysterious skill and, several levels higher than the Spiritual Sense Flying Needle, which
was much more powerful.
Such spiritual sense skills were rarely seen these days. However, several hundred years or even
almost a thousand years ago, when the me Emperor was alive, these skills would have been more
After a month of intensive, yet boring practice in the cultivation room, Austin finally seeded in the
cultivation of this powerful skill, allowing him to add one more spiritual sense skill to his repertoire in
addition to the Spiritual Sense Flying Needle.
Now, he shifted his attention towards the cultivation of the Kirin Golden-body Scripture, which included
seven steps. Each step allowed the cultivator to morph parts of his body into a lion w, a dragon
head, a deer horn, a tiger back, a bear waist, a snake scale, and a leopard tail. Austin examined these
steps thoroughly.
Then he began to practice the first step, Lion w.
After practicing for some time, Austin had a feeling that among the three grade seven martial arts skills
he had picked up, the Kirin Golden-body Scripture was the most powerful and also the most difficult.
He knew that with increasing power, cultivation time also increased, and therefore, he had to be
patient.
It took him about half a month but after that, Austin could morph his hands into a pair of lion ws.
They were actually Kirin''s ws, but were shaped like a lion''s. What''s more, they were also several
times stronger than a lion''s w.
By the time he had finished the first step of the Kirin Golden-body Scripture, he had spent a whole two
months inside the cultivation room.
In these two months, he had finished the cultivation of Demon-creating Skill, all the steps of the Brutal
st Fist except for thest one, as well as the first step of the Kirin Golden-body Scripture, Lion w.
Since he had mastered one of the triopletely and had also learnt parts of the other two, Austin
decided to leave the cultivation room now.
The moment he came out, Mike told him that Reuben, the youngest prince, had been here a dozen
times in thest two months, looking for him.
In thest two months, the most sensational piece of news in the imperial capital city was that the
emperor himself had decreed that his youngest son, Reuben, would be the crown prince, and,
Austin wasn''t surprised, since he had given the soul-recovering fruits he had picked up from the
Mysterious Nether World to the Prince Reuben himself.
But to his surprise, following his suit, Evan and Herbert had also locked themselves in their own
cultivation rooms for practice and hadn''t left.
Austin was amused, but felt satisfied as well. If Evan and Herbert could be more powerful and not
need his protection anymore, it would be in both of their interests, and he would be very happy for
them.
While Austin was chatting with Mike in the pce hall, a servant ran over and told him that Prince
Reuben was waiting for him outside.
''It seems that Reuben is a grateful person. As the crown prince, he is the second most powerful person
in the Violet Orchid Empire now. However, he still came to visit me so many times. I''m really ttered, ''
Austin thought.
''w me and I''ll w thee'' was Austin''s principle of life.
He immediately asked the servant to invite the Prince in without dy.
"Hahaha! Austin, you have been in the cultivation room for two months now. I missed you so much!
You are obsessed with cultivation. It''s no wonder that you have made such great achievements at such
a young age."
Reuben, the youngest prince, uttered these words before he had fully entered the hall with several of
his bodyguards. .
"Haha! Prince Reuben, you tter me! Congrattions on bing the crown prince!"
Austin replied with a smile.
"Austin, I know that without you, I wouldn''t have won thepetition for the throne.
When I''m on the throne in the future, I will appoint you as the Lord Protector General to help me rule
the Violet Orchid Empire," Reuben said seriously.
"Oh?
You''ll let me be the Lord Protector General?"
Austin was a little surprised.
''What does Reuben want from me?'' he wondered.
In fact, in addition to his gratitude towards Austin for helping him win the throne, Reuben also had
another reason for promising Austin such a prestigious post.
That was Austin''s extremely high cultivation base. The prince knew that Austin had reached the Sky
Realm already.
This was almost the highest cultivation level in the whole Violet Orchid Empire.
Besides, Austin was not even twenty yet. How incredible it was that a cultivator could reach such a high
level at such a young age!
When Austin had firste into the imperial capital city and entered the Prince Reuben''s mansion, he
had only been at the premium stage of Earth Realm. Before long, he had broken through to the
Mysterious Realm in the Outstanding Talents Exchange Games. And now, he had already reached the
medium stage of Sky Realm!
Reuben had noticed this incredible progress that Austin had made, most of it with his own eyes.
With such speed of improvement, Austin would definitely break through to realms higher than the Sky
Realm very soon.
At that point, no one in the Violet Orchid Empire would be a match for him!
Reuben realized that if Austin could work for him and be his henchman, he would face no
problems in ruling the empire.
Austin thought for a short moment, and vaguely divined the Prince Reuben''s intention.
He smiled lightly and answered, "Prince Reuben, thank you for your kindness!
But what I pursue is the highest level of martial arts skills. Besides, I have gotten used to a carefree
and unrestrained life, and I''m always wandering around.
This means I''m not the right person for an office job.
I''ll also leave the Violet Orchid Empire soon, and I don''t know when I wille back.
Please appoint someone more suitable as Lord Protector General."
When he was in the Mysterious Nether World, Austin had promised Angus that he would find both his
daughter, whose name was Ariadne, and several precious natural resources too which were going to
be necessary for Angus to rebuild his flesh body.
And he had also promised the me Emperor that he would go to the Divine Continent, a much more
advanced world than this one, with him when he reached the Basic Sacred Realm.
The Violet Orchid Empire was only a remote and small country. Since he had already reached the Sky
Realm now, it would be hard for him to make further progress if he still stayed here.
Thinking about these things, Austin had already made up his mind to venture in the outside world soon.
"What?
Austin, are you serious when you say that you will leave?"
Prince Reuben asked, disappointed.
"Yes. I''ve had this idea for a long time."
Austin nodded.
Reuben stared at him with a nk expression for a few seconds, and then continued, "It''s okay. I know
that the Violet Orchid Empire is too small for you. It''s true that with your current cultivation base, there
is not much room for your improvement here. I think you''d be right in venturing into the outside world."
Reuben knew he couldn''t force Austin to stay here.
"Austin, I''m sure you will reach an extremely high level in martial arts in the future. If I''m in trouble
someday and need your help, I would appreciate it if you can give me a hand for the sake of our
friendship."
Reuben told him sincerely. He knew that with Austin''s cultivation base and talent, he would make more
incredible achievements in the future. If he could get close to Austin now, maybe Austin would help him
out in some critical moment.
"Hahaha! Prince Reuben, it''s very kind of you to look up to me! If there''s anything I can do for you in
the future, do let me know and I will try my best."
Austin replied with augh.
"Fine. Austin, then it''s a deal!"
Reuben''s face lit up.
"Prince Reuben, could you please do me a favor?"
Austin asked.
"Oh?
What''s it? Come on! Just tell me," Reuben asked, a little surprised.
"When I leave the Violet Orchid Empire, my friends would like to stay at Austin Pce in the imperial
capital city.
I hope you can help me take care of them."
Austin requested.
Ivy and Sue, who were his fiancees now, had cultivation bases which were too low at the moment, so it
would be impossible for him to take them with him.
Mike, Evan, and Herbert''s cultivation bases were also not high enough. If someone came to make
trouble, like the Gloomy Mountain Ancestor had done, Austin wouldn''t be able toe back to protect
them.
Prince Reuben had be the crown prince now, so except for the emperor, he was the most
powerful person in the imperial capital city.
It would be the wisest decision to let him take care of his friends who were going to live in the Austin
Pce.
"Hahaha! That''s as easy as pie!
I will arrange some imperial guards to ensure the safety of the Austin Pce.
I have recruited some capable cultivators in thest few days, and I will ask them to take care of your
friends too," Reuben replied, patting his chest. He was trying to cozy up with Austin, and here was his
chance. He was d to do Austin a favor.
Austin was satisfied. Now, he would be able to leave Violet Orchid Empire without any worries.
