Chapter 1571 Dragon Tearing
"What are you waiting for, brat?" the me Emperor taunted. "You haven''t seen each other in a month,
and there''s no one around. It''s just the two of you, all alone, right here. Pin her down and take her. Just
enjoy the moment."
His voice was mocking yet persuasive, echoing all throughout Austin''s Soul Sea.
"Shut your mouth, or else I''ll put the Spiritual Pot back into my Soul Sea,"

threatened Austin.
"Oh, fuck off. I was giving you good advice, you ungrateful brat," snapped the me Emperor in
response, pouting at Austin''s words.
Being nothing more than a broken soul, the me Emperor was afraid of the Spiritual Pot. As much as
he wanted to tease Austin some more, the threat was quite effective in silencing him for the meantime.
Austin rolled his eyes before he turned his attention to Caroline. "Oh, right. You''ve reached the
premium stage of Holy Realm, haven''t you, Caroline?" he asked, sounding both surprised and ted at
the discovery.
He certainly hadn''t expected this development.
Caroline nodded her head in response. "Indeed. I consumed a Green Evil Pill Elder Brendan gave me,
and I managed to break through twice," she exined.
"One of our ancestors came up with the form for the Green Evil Pill. This pill is helpful to the
cultivation of our evil shadow race.
Right now, I still have two Green Evil Pills left. I think I''ll be entering the Semi-emperor Realm soon."
A sweet smile adorned her face as she spoke. Austin listened to her intently, taking in the words she
was saying.
"Hmm... Looks like I need to improve my pill refining skills, then.
That way, I can make the Green Evil Pill for you and your people,"
murmured Austin thoughtfully.
Pill refinery seemed very simple, but it wasn''t to be underestimated. Different pills could actually
contribute a lot to cultivation in different ways.
"Didn''t you juste back from herb collecting?" asked Caroline, a concerned expression on her face.
"I suppose you must be feeling quite tired. Please, go and get some rest first."
Her voice was soft and gentle as she spoke.
"You''re right," said Austin, nodding his head. He really was tired, and rest would most certainly be
wee after some hard work. Waving goodbye to Caroline, he then headed back towards his hovel.
For now, he was going to take a rest and recover his energy. Afterwards, he was going to spend the
following days focusing on his cultivation.
After all, in a year, he would be facing Howard from the Vasteras Holy Land in a duel.
Unlike him, Howard had already reached the premium stage of Emperor Realm.
Much as it pained him to admit it, Austin was painfully aware that he was no match for someone at
Howard''s level. So he was determined to be stronger within a year.
He figured it was enough time for him to be strong enough that he could face Howard on equal
footing.
The battle wasn''t just about the two of them, after all.
Before anything else, Elder Brendan had made it clear that the battle was apetition between the
disciples from the me Holy Land and Vasteras Holy Land. A loss on Austin''s side would mean
shame for the me Holy Land, an oue he certainly didn''t want.
At the very least, Austin already had ns about enhancing his battle force.
First, he nned to speed up the upgrade of his vital energy realm.
Next, he intended to learn some powerful martial skills.
Right now, Austin had three martial skills avable at his disposal:
the Grand Body Refining Skill, the Mysterious Dragon Fist, and Glorious Swordsmanship.
For the Grand Body Refining Skill, Austin had already mastered the third stage. His physical strength
had already reached ny million pounds.
To practice the fourth stage, he needed to gather more herbs of the earth attribute first, meaning he
couldn''t work on this skill until then.
But for every dark cloud, there was a silver lining. For now, Austin could focus on cultivating the
Mysterious Dragon Fist and Glorious Swordsmanship.
He decided to start with the Mysterious Dragon Fist.
The night was dark and littered with millions of stars. On top of a hill sat a figure, cross-legged and
deep in concentration.
This figure was none other than Austin.
With his eyes closed and his still body bathed in the moonlight, he cleared his mind of all thoughts and
focused.
Golden vital energy coursed through his body and turned into dragon energy, the key point in mastering
the Mysterious Dragon Fist.
The greater the dragon energy, the greater and more powerful the skill would be.
Back at the Wild Herb Valley, Austin had practiced this skill, and at the time he had managed to form
just ten dragon energy.
This time, he was nning to form even more to make his technique stronger than ever before.
The amount of dragon energy one cultivator could form depended on the quality and quantity of his
vital energy.
It was said in the introduction of the Mysterious Dragon Fist thatmon cultivators could form ten
dragon energy.
However, if one could form fifteen dragons out of vital energy, he was definitely a genius.
Only an exceptional genius could form over twenty dragons out of vital energy.
Now, Austin''s golden vital energy ran a certain path through his body repeatedly, making a loud noise
as it did so.
It was only after four hours passed that
Austin suddenly moved and swung his fist.
All at once, tremendous vital energy appeared around his fist, turning intorge dragons that let out
powerful growls.
The giant creatures flew around Austin, leaving strong gusts of wind in their wake.
All in all, there was a total of thirty massive dragons.
With theserge and powerful beasts surrounding him, Austin appeared very much like a blood-thirsty
killer, his long, dark hair blowing in the strong winds.
It wasmon knowledge that dragons were ferocious creatures, and the Mysterious Dragon Fist was
a powerful technique that showed their violent nature.
Suddenly, in that same moment, an evil energy nketed the hill, the dreadful dragons moving around
their master Austin.
They looked invincible, as though they could rule the world, and nobody was capable of stopping them.
It was only the fifteenth day of his training, and yet Austin had already sessfully created thirty
dragons out of his vital energy.
Relieved and proud of what he had aplished, he let out a breath and drew a satisfied smile.
Fifteen days had passed since Austin started practicing the Mysterious Dragon Fist.
No matter how powerful a cultivator was, the amount of the vital energy one could have was limited.
Austin, however, was a different case. He was able to store infinite energy all thanks to the vital energy
stone, meaning he could never becking in vital energy.
In case he ever consumed too much, he could just utilize the vital energy inside the vital energy stone.
It was because of this that he was capable of forming thirty dragons with dragon energy.
"These dragons seem quite powerful..." Austin murmured quietly to himself.
"Well, the more the better. I''ll try to form more dragons then,"
he decided.
With that, he closed his eyes once more, focusing on turning more vital energy into dragon energy.
As he was all by himself on the hill and had no one to disturb him, Austin was able topletely
immerse himself in his cultivation and make full use of his energy without any distractions.
A month passed by in a sh.
Atop the hill, Austin was still working on strengthening his Mysterious Dragon Fist.
Taking a deep breath, he threw a punch, from whichrge, powerful dragons materialized and growled
fiercely. The creatures flew around Austin, surrounding him and hiding him from sight.
''Sixty dragons... Sixty!''
Austin joyfully eximed within himself, a wide, aplished smile on his face.
''All my hard work in the past month paid off! Now, I can create sixty dragons from dragon energy, '' he
thought.
He couldn''t help but grin even wider at the proof of his aplishments flying right before his eyes.
"Aw, yeah!" he gushed, letting out a breath and proudly looking on at the dragons.
"All my efforts weren''t in vain. This time, I''ve got to learn the first move of the Mysterious Dragon Fist—
Dragon Tearing."
To get himself started, Austin began to go through the introduction of the Dragon Tearing in his Soul
Sea.
The Dragon Tearing technique was, just like its name said, all about dragons tearing their target into
pieces.
Mastering this technique meant Austin would have another efficient way to eliminate his enemies.
Basically, when he swung at his opponent, the vital energy dragons woulde out of his body, with
each dragon rotating quickly and piercing through its target to rip it into bits.
As long as the practitioner hit his enemy with his fist, these dragons would keep tearing their target until
it waspletely torn into pieces with no hope of recovery.
It could perhaps be less fatal if the dragons attacked their target directly, but because they would
simply keep ripping their target, it would be more difficult for the target to survive the technique''s blows.
Keeping the steps in mind, Austin then began to practice the Dragon Tearing technique.
Arge number of dragons materialized from Austin''s fist, roaring and reaching out sharp ws. As
they did so, the hill shook vigorously, a vast number of clouds gathering above them.
As Austin engaged in his cultivation, Caroline stood by the door of her hut every once in a while and
watched him, affection visibly showing on her beautiful face.
With not much else to do, much of her time was spent cultivating in her cabin.
Time went by, and five days had already passed.
"I finally did it!" eximed Austin, the excitement apparent in his voice.
In just five days, he had sessfully mastered the Dragon Tearing!
