Chapter 940 Austin''s Overwhelming Battle
"Fleeing?
It''s toote!"
Austin shouted.
After summoning the Thunderbolt Movement Skill, Austin chased the steward from the Sky Sect.
As Austin neared the steward, he swung his fist.
The tall and skinny steward''s cultivation base had reached the preliminary stage of Astral Realm.
He could thus, feel the tremendous power surging behind him.
He froze for an instant as shock coursed through him. Then, the steward turned and tried to defend
against Austin''s attack by using the martial skill of his vital energy force.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom……"
Suddenly, earth-shattering thunder exploded, and lightning danced and ripped through a dark and
greying sky that reminded the onlookers of doomsday described in ancient books.
Unceasing storms of thunder and lightning bolts bombarded thend all around the cultivators.
"Ah!"
The steward howled, as a lightning bolt struck him.
"Boom!"
Austin didn''t focus on the streaks of lightning that struck his body. Instead, he directed all his energy
toward his attacks.
"Thump!"
Austin''s punch hit the steward''s charred body, and it turned into ashes that scattered in the fierce wind.
In the next instant, scores of lightning boltsnded on Austin—each burning his flesh, turning it a
ghastly ck that oozed blood. His flesh sizzled and the stench of scorched skin diffused into the air.
Luckily, the thunder unicorn''s beast soul that had enclosed Austin''s body absorbed most of the energy
from the lightning.
Austin held the Thunder Elixir in both hands and watched as it soaked up the power of the lightning.
Even though extreme pain coursed through his lightning-struck body, Austin knew that the injuries were
minor and that he hadn''t been severely hurt.
The beast soul of the thunder unicorn and the Thunder Elixir were the magic treasures that allowed
Austin to endure the lightning.
Other people at the scene were also struck by lightning, to a greater or lesser extent.
Everyone was frightened and summoned their magic treasures to defend against the wild lightning.
The purple-haired youth, Winnie, and Mr. Gold Hand also used their holy weapons to resist the
lightning.
No one dared to move swiftly because the quicker they moved, the more susceptible they would be to
the lightning strikes. Thus, their chances of being targeted by the bolts of lightning would increase
tremendously.
...... ......
The crowd was unable to believe what had just happened. They were dumbfounded!
Perplexed, they watched speechlessly.
"Hey,e on! That''s far from enough!" Austin shouted to the lightning sky as he wanted more
lightning bolts to strike down.
Austin suddenlyunched the Thunder Elixir in his hands. Soon, the Thunder Elixir released a spate of
stick-sized lightning bolts that converged with the lightning in the sky above the pce.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."
Austin''s n did work. Releasing the Thunder Elixir led to the discharge of several hundred bolts of
lightning. These strikes mercilessly bombarded Austin.
"Now, it''s your turn!"
Despite his injuries and the most recent bombardment that Austin had to endure, he summoned his
bodily movement skill that allowed him to move like a whirlwind. In a sh, he was standing in front of
another Sky Sect steward.
However, that steward did not notice Austin. He had been busy injecting his vital energy force into the
yellow g that he held in his hands. As he did so, the g emitted yellow light, like sunshine, which
allowed the steward to resist the lightning strikes.
Austin employed his Demon-creating Skill and Spiritual Sense Flying Spear simultaneously to attack
the steward''s Soul Sea.
Two fists, asrge and destructive as meteors, shot out.
"Thump!"
The busy steward had no time to dodge Austin''s powerful punch.
Streaks of lightning fell on Austin''s body the entire time he fought with his adversaries.
Overwhelmed, Austin faltered and almost fell to the ground.
"It hurts!"
Austin''s flesh exploded every time a bolt of lightning hit him. He had endured so many lightning strikes
that his body was dreadful to look at. While in some ces, his skin had charred, in other areas, open
wounds dripped blood. In some ces, one could even see Austin''s bones! Austin grimaced and tried
to bear the tremendous pain.
Fortunately, the Thunder Elixir and the beast soul of the thunder unicorn continued to absorb the
lightning''s power. This was great for Austin as it meant that he was protected from internal injuries
caused by the lightning strikes.
"Austin!"
The Holy Son of the Sky Sect, the purple-haired youth, had witnessed how Austin had annihted two
of the sect''s stewards in the blink of an eye.
His face twisted, and he roared with outrage.
Without thinking, the youth charged at Austin.
"Holy Son, please calm down for a moment.
Austin is exerting himself, and it is increasing the intensity of the lightning strikes. In my opinion, he
wants to die a glorious death, and he wants us to perish with him!
It would be better if we retreated."
The remaining two stewards desperately tried to cate and stop the purple-haired youth.
"Let''s see who will survive the battle today!" countered Austin.
Though charred from numerous lightning strikes, Austin was still admirably determined and persistent.
Without waiting for his opponent to reply, Austinunched the Thunder Elixir in his hands. Streaks of
lightning were aimed at the sky above the pce.
Austin seemed to be in a state of madness. Even though he knew that moving faster would cause more
lightning bolts to be released, he raced forward. Perhaps he intended to provoke the lightning sky
above the pce.
The sky as though spurred by Austin rolled and roared with greater intensity than before.
Lightning bolts fell like hail in a furious storm, targeting all the cultivators before the pce gates.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."
Continuous rounds of lightning strikes besieged the square. No one could find a safe corner to hide.
shes of lightning were continually blitzing at the area less than half a mile away from the pce front
gate. The thunder and the dazzling lightning certainly made it appear like the end of the world was
nearing.
As more lightning waves exploded on the ground, millions of shing streaks scattered and weaved
across the floor, burning everything in its path.
Austin gritted his teeth and endured the pain from his wounds. Then he lifted the Thunder Elixir over his
head to help the thunder unicorn''s beast soul absorb more power from the lightning that was heading
his way.
Millions of glittering shes of electricity engulfed Austin''s whole body. He literally looked like the
Thunder Giant. How divine and majestic he appeared!
But under the glorious appearance, his body had been burned beyond recognition. The air around
Austin was saturated with the stench of burnt flesh.
Every inch of Austin''s body had by now, been struck by lightning bolts. Not even one part of his body
was uninjured.
Austin''s face distorted from agony.
He had endured lightning strike after lightning strike after lightning strike!
But at the same time, he still inflicted violent attacks against the people around him.
The golden ball flew out his elixir field and rolled over the whole ce. It shone as a giant sun and
could effectuate the vital energy.
The golden ball connected with Austin''s physical power and spiritual sense, and the attack kept going
on and on and on.
"Thump!"
A female steward from the New Moon Sect turned to dust as soon as Austin''s blownded on her.

"Help!"
A steward from the Ghost Puppet Sect screamed just as Austin''s attack shattered his bones, instantly
killing him.
"Thump!"
A dull sound echoed as Austin''s horrendously powerful punchnded on and killed another steward
from Sky Sect.
"Austin, how dare you!"
Mr. Gold Hand barked as he ced a giant herbal pot to help him withstand the strike from the lightning
and Austin''s blows.
Despite his best efforts, Mr. Gold Hand panicked, and several streaks of lightning hit him.
The force of the impact was such that his body was thrown away. Mr. Gold Hand tried to stand.
However, he coughed up mouthfuls of blood and felt as though his internal organs had shifted.
How graceful and personable a gentleman he had been! Now, he was nothing more than a body
charred by lightning.
"Barret, are you fleeing as well? No way!"
Austin remained vignt. He bellowed when he saw the Holy Son of the Thunder Sect attempting to slip
toward the pce gate. He knew that Barret might intend to sneak into the pce to pige the
treasures.
Austin moved, and within seconds, hended right in front of Barret. Before Barret could defend
himself, Austinunched a savage attack.
Meanwhile, more and more rounds of lightning fell around Austin.
"Thump!"
Austin''s blownded on Barret''s body.
The Thunder Giant shadow that was attached to Barret''s body was about to copse. He staggered
several steps backward and vomited mouthfuls of blood.
He had been defeated. After all, few could survive Austin''s attacks as he had released more than 4
million pounds of force.
"Now, it''s your turn!"
Austin targeted the purple-haired youth.
And then he raced forward!
"Go to hell, you bastard!"
The purple-haired youth was the Holy Son of the Sky Sect. He effectuated his powerful purple mists
that transformed into purple dragons to attack Austin.
The Ivory Board on his head was a holy weapon.
However, it was resisting the lightning strikes and protecting the purple-haired youth. Thus he couldn''t
afford to take it off to engage Austin.
"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Austin threw out scores of punches, like a madman.
He fired one spiritual demon and twelve Spiritual Sense Flying Spears at the purple-haired youth''s Soul
Sea.
All the purple dragons shattered.
The purple-haired youth began retreating once his Soul Sea was constrained.
He kept vomiting mouthfuls of blood. Obviously, he was hurt.
"Ah!"
Austin howled as more streaks of lightning strike hit his body.
Austin knew that his body was totally worn out. He could not hold on anymore.
So he stopped attacking the purple-haired youth. He then touched the Space Ring. A jade bottle
containing Magic Sea Water popped up in his hand.
A dozen drops of Magic Sea Water were forced out and flew toward Austin''s mouth.
Streams of life source soon poured into and spread throughout Austin''s body.
A steady flow of life essence helped Austin''s body to recover.
"Ho!"
Indeed, Austin was lucky to have carried the Magic Sea Water. Otherwise, he would have died.
And that, Austin knew better than anyone else!
...... ......
"Dear lord!
That bastard! Is his body made of iron?"
"Even if that were true, he shouldn''t be able to endure the agony anymore.
I saw hundreds of bolts of lightning strike his body.
That bastard! Why is he still alive?"
"He doesn''t even look like he''s close to dying. He still has the strength to attack as wildly as a lion
hunting its prey!"
People around the square were perplexed.
The events unfolding before their eyes were beyond their understanding.
