Chapter 666 The Story Of That Drop Of Gold Blood
Austin slowly balled his right hand into a fist and sted the air in front of him.
Boom!
He created a ball ofpressed air packed with tremendous force which was shot like a cannon ball
out into the open air. It was so strong that a loud bang was heard for miles away.
A few secondster, a small hurricane blew violently out of nowhere.
Its force was sixty thousand pounds worth of human strength.
Austin was quite surprised and pleased at the same time with the result.
It was just a drop of gold blood which contained plenty of energy, but its result on Austin''s physical
body was simply astounding after he absorbed a small amount of its energy. His physical strength
doubled in the blink of an eye, from thirty thousand pounds worth of energy to sixty thousand pounds.
Thunk! Thunk! Thunk...
As Austin tested and admired his physical strength, the coffin suddenly shook slightly.
After hearing the sounding from the coffin, Austin hurriedly walked towards it. It was obvious that
the shaking sound came from the skeleton sealed inside the coffin.
Austin was very much aware just how powerful the dead could be, especially since he was a peerless
master.
Although the man was long dead, Austin still decided to be careful with the skeleton because he might
never know what kind traps it might contain, especially since he was not strong enough at the moment
to deal with cultivators strong as the dead.
Austin eyed the coffin warily as it continued to quiver.
Secondster, a sudden sh of gold emanated from the skeleton. And slowly a human profile started

to form over the coffin.
Austin finally recognized the man as his body and face had fully taken shape. He was indeed the
strong man who killed the one-horned human-shaped creature in the grand battle which was etched in
the mine.
And not only that, he was also one of thete Sect Leaders of the Veritable Demon Sect!
The Sect Leader''s figure gradually became clearer and clearer, and then he began to speak.
"Who are you?
This is just a piece of my spiritual sense image sealed within my bones, but my spiritual soul has long
disappeared from this world. So, I can''t perceive you.
But since my spiritual sense image has showed up, I assume that you must have absorbed that drop of
gold blood.
Besides, this is the Holy Tomb of the Veritable Demon Sect. Since you''re here, then you must be a
disciple of our Veritable Demon Sect,"
stated the Sect Leader slowly.
Upon hearing his words, Austin gently gave a quiet smile, and said in his heart, ''Sorry to disappoint you
Sir, but I am not a disciple of your Veritable Demon Sect.''
"I''ll tell you where that drop of gold blood came from first,"
the Sect Leader continued.
His words caught Austin''s full attention and he prepared to listen attentively to the man.
"Since you have that drop of gold blood within you, then you must have seen the battle.
That one-horned human-shaped creature belonged to a rare species in the ancient era. It belonged to
the diabolic beasts ssification.
During the ancient times, this species of diabolic beast was considered quite formidable and it was
historical known to be majestic and prized.
However, as you know, we do not know what could possibly happen next for any creature through the
years.
Over time, the species somehow disappeared just like that."
Not until then did Austin know that the one-horned human-shaped creature was a diabolic beast which
existed in the ancient era.
"The reason why I was able to meet one was because it was sealed in a supreme vital energy crystal.
The supreme vital energy crystal which encased it contains arge amount of spiritual energy of
heaven and earth, which was sufficient enough to nourish that diabolic beast, keeping it alive and well
preserved.
When the miners dug it out, it was as if it was triggered and suddenly came to life.
However, the diabolic beast harbored a very strong grudge against human cultivators. I reckon the
extinction of its species may have something to do with humanity''s greed and lust for power.
So, aftering to life, that diabolic beast driven by blood lust and revenge, carried out a frenzied
ughter of human cultivators.
As a result, the rivers and the ground became red with human blood. It was like the world became hell.
Countless human cultivators lost their lives."
As he spoke, the Sect Leader of the Veritable Demon Sect wore a saddened expression, as if he
grieved for the hundreds of people who suffered.
"Later on, I couldn''t bear to watch it anymore, so I decided to step out from the sidelines and fought
with that diabolic beast myself.
That diabolic beast, from the ancient era, possessed unimaginable and horrifying strength.
Technically speaking, I was no match for it in any way when it had been at full strength. Fortunately,
since it was sealed for a long time, the diabolic beast was at its weakest during our fight, with only one
percent of its strength left.
I was barely able to gain the upper hand during the battle, before being able to defeat it atst. It was
perhaps the most difficult battle I have ever fought.
I may have won, but that hard earned victory came with a price. My entire body was filled with scars
and blood. I was like a spent arrow, all battered and bruised.
The moment that diabolic beast''s heart stopped beating, I immediately sealed it up. But it was quite a
hassle sealing up all its essence of life and blood in a special way.
I then carved the whole battle into the mine as a warning to the miners not to release the creature if
they ever find anything like it again. Instead, they must bury it immediately, never to seek it again. This
was the only way to avoid that horrendous tragedy from ever happening again.
And finally, with my remaining energy, I ced a teleportation array in that mine, and transmitted my
body back to the Holy Tomb.
This is the rule of our Veritable Demon Sect—the sect leaders, elders and stewards of our sect must be
buried in the Holy Tomb.
Well then, I believe I have given you a clear idea of the origin of this drop of gold blood."
Then the Sect Leader momentarily paused for a few seconds, as if he was gathering his thoughts.
Austin knew he couldn''t talk to the man in front of him. The only thing he could do was listen to him.
After all, the Sect Leader was only a sealed spiritual sense image, and his true soul had long
disappeared.
"Next, I will tell you the effect of this drop of gold blood.
This drop of gold blood has an amazing effect on body-refining cultivators. It is like an elixir for them.
Especially when partnered with one of our sect''s body-refining arcane spells—the Beast Energy-
extracting Skill—which is handed down from ancient times. With this skill you can fully absorb the great
energy essence contained in this drop of gold blood, and your body will be transformed and remolded.
It is the only way to maximize the gold blood''s potential to its fullest.
Through this, you can achieve great sess in body-refining.
All right then since I have exined all of this to you, I will now give you the Beast Energy-extracting
Skill."
As soon as he finished speaking, a passage suddenly appeared above the coffin which slowly flowed
through the air. The words were glittering with gold, which lit up the whole Holy Tomb.
Austin''s heart raced with excitement. This was one opportunity which no one would miss.
He hurriedly released all his spiritual sense, tightly locked in the slow flowing words, and recorded them
in his Soul Sea.
When all the words had finally disappeared, the Sect Leader spoke hisst words.
"The Beast Energy-extracting Skill is of the highest grade among all of our sect''s body-refining arcane
spells. It is considered one of the best of the best.
Only our sect leaders and former elders have the right to practice it. Therefore, you should consider it
an honor.
You entered the Holy Tomb by chance and got my gold blood, so I taught you the Beast Energy-
extracting Skill. With the drop of gold blood, you will surely achieve great sess in your body-refining.
Who knows, you might just surpass me once you master this skill.
Well, I do hope that you can make your own contribution to the development of our Veritable Demon
Sect in the future, and make your own mark in our Sect''s and the world''s history."
After his final words of wisdom, the Sect Leader''s spiritual sense image uttered a slight sound,
trembled, and vanished into thin air.
Austin didn''t waste any more time. Standing where he was, he gently closed his eyes, and began to
understand and learn the Beast Energy-extracting Skill that he had just remembered in the Soul Sea!
