Chapter 1185 Continue The Hunting Game (Part One)
Deep inside the cave where Austin was hiding, he did some nning right before he started to seclude
himself for another breakthrough.
First, he summoned Nathan, the Sect Supremo, some strong cultivators who were in the Astral Realm
from the Heaven Pavilion Sect, and some key members from the evil shadow race. Austin only had one
mission for them: that was to fish for some information about Evan and Herbert.
Meanwhile, the queen of the evil shadow race remained with Austin inside the cave to make sure that
he was safe.
After about a day and a half in seclusion, Austin finally broke through to the medium stage of
Tribtion Realm!
While tightly grasping his two palms, Austin suddenly felt something different as several strengthened
flows of vital energy force started flowing through his veins. Compared to what he was feeling before
that day, this was quite calm yet extremely powerful.
Austin imagined that if he practiced the ughtering Sword in that exact moment, the power it released
would be beyond his expectations -- an invincible and monstrous power!
Upon learning that Austin had alreadypleted his breakthrough to the medium stage of the
Tribtion Realm, the people whom he had sent out to fish information started to return.
"The Heavenly Emperor City -- that is where Evan and Herbert are as of now. I am sure of it,"
Austin said deliberately.
"Master, it is quite obvious that they are only trying to lure you into their trap by sending out these
words! They want you to go to the Heavenly Emperor City!
I am sure that they will be very ''weing'' if you do decide to go out there. After all, a treachery must
be well-nned before waiting for its prey toe along.
Master, I urge you to think twice before you decide on what to do. That is a real threat you are going to
face.
And we need to be careful. You, need to be careful."
Upon guessing the whole plot of Austin''s enemies, the Sect Supremo tried to calm Austin down before
he decided to do anything impulsive.
"He is right, indeed. I also have other informants who have heard other cultivators talking. They think
that the myth of the Semi-Holy Realm masters may not be a myth after all. In fact, rumor has it that
great masters may even exist inside the four ns and the five sects of the Heavenly Dragon Holy
Kingdom.
If the rumors that are spreading around turned out to be the truth instead, the Semi-Holy Realm
Masters, together with the four ns and five sects, would wipe us clear if we step into the Heavenly
Emperor City without a n. Even if we added all of our true strengths, we still would not even be able
to touch their little fingers, let alone attack them and save Evan and Herbert. No, there is no way we
can do that. It is just far too risky, and we haven''t even seen what kind of strength a Semi-Holy Realm
master really has. We don''t even know how many of them there are,"
Nathan said, offering Austin a piece of his well-thought off advice despite his noticeably trembling
voice.
The queen also agreed to what Nathan said. Like the others, she also doubted that the information they
had collected so easily was not sent out in purpose.
"Semi-holy Realm masters. Hmm..."
Austin murmured with a voice only he could hear as he narrowed his eyes.
He thought about what he learned before -- that the realm that ranked higher than the Primal Holy
Realm was the Semi-holy Realm.
Once, cultivators in the Semi-Holy Real were nothing more than a myth. People even said that if they
did exist, then they would be the best of the best cultivators in the entire Prime Martial World. Their
level would be something that normal cultivators wouldn''t even dare to dream about reaching.
It was actually known to all that in the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom, the ns and sects with bigger
names had quite a few strong Primal Holy Realm cultivators hidden somewhere.
But despite all the whispers going around, no one actually seemed to know whether there was anyone
who could be considered a Semi-Holy Realm Master. The only ones who actually knew were the
cultivators who actually belonged to those highly esteemed n and sects.
Austin knew in his gut that given the number of people he currently had and the level at which their
cultivation bases were in, if that myth actually became reality and there were really Semi-Holy Realm
masters going after him, then they all would be destroyed by only a single Semi-Holy Realm master. In
that case, it would be impossible for them to save Evan and Herbert.
"If I may say, let''s all stop worrying too much about hypothetical Semi-Holy Realm masters at this
moment. There are some medium-stage Primal Holy Realm cultivators or even a few premium-stage
Primal Holy Realm cultivators who will be able to strike us down with just a snap of their fingers. I don''t
see us having any advantages on our side. Neither do I see any possibility of us fighting them without
losing our heads."
The queen from the evil shadow race furrowed her brows intensely when she let out her concerns and
cooled the whole discussion down.
The queen of evil shadow race made sure that everyone was listening to her. She definitely knew what
she was talking about since she, herself, had already reached the preliminary stage of Primal Holy
Realm.
It wasn''t only her -- Moore, the elder of the Ghost Puppet Sect, and Hart, the elder of the Sky Sect had
also reached the preliminary stage of Primal Holy Realm. Thus, Austin should have known exactly what
a Semi-holy Realm cultivator, even one at the preliminary stage, would be like since he had already

experienced fights with some cultivators from a realm lower.
In fact, the queen was THE most powerful helper that Austin had right now since she had already
reached the Primal Holy Realm.
It would be impossible for them to win if any of the medium-staged Primal Holy Realm cultivators or the
premium-staged ones joined the fight. In that case, they would probably have all of their heads
chopped off their shoulders.
Even though the queen had already refined the archaic weapon, and herbat power base had been
boosted up and strengthened significantly, Austin still doubted if that would be enough for them to fight
the ns and sects of the Heaven Dragon Holy Kingdom.
After all, it was a kingdom with a very rich culture that traced back to the ancient times, and the ns
and sects surely did not get their name for doing nothing. They must have archaic magic treasures in
possession -- something stronger and much more powerfulpared to the archaic weapon.
Just like the archaic puppet of the Ghost Puppet Sect which was one of the very few archaic magic
treasures that Austin had seen and was literally invincible.
A kingdom as old as the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom and a kind of magic treasure more powerful
than the archaic weapon sounded like a good match to Austin.
"Yes, that''s also true. With what we have right now, we won''t stand a chance in a fight against the ns
and sects of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom, so we will no longer discuss about that.
However, I must save my brothers'' lives no matter what it takes. I will make sure that Evan and Herbert
will be freed. I made a promise to myself and I will follow through with it.
This time, it would be better to use a cunning strategy than to attack by force.
Everyone, do you still remember our hunting game? Oh, let us y the game to the fullest this time!
