Chapter 1766 A Present
As the man shouted, a skinny hand suddenly reached out. It blocked the tongue after going through the
misty void.
The withered hand looked old and weak; but suddenly, with only a gentle touch, it was already holding
the scarlet tongue in its palm.
"Howl!"
The tall human-shaped creature let out a loud roar and wanted to draw the scarlet tongue back.
Bang!
He clenched his fist, and the scarlet tongue exploded as it turned into a cloud of blood.
Austin and his twopanions had a narrow escape from death. They could not believe that they even
survived but they were thankful that they did.

Pleased, they looked at the owner of the withered hand gratefully. He was sitting cross-legged at a
distance, staring at them.
It was the skinny old man whom they already had the pleasure of meeting before. No one noticed when
he had appeared in front of Austin again.
ording to the gnome, the old man must once have meditated at the ce ten thousand years ago.
And what Austin and his twopanions witnessed actually happened ten thousand years ago.
But the old man, who meditated ten thousand years ago exactly at the ce where Austin and his
''Could this old man be so powerful that he could travel the endless space and time to save people ten
thousand yearster?''
The more Austin thought about it, the more terrified he felt.
It was just like a fairy tale.
"Howl!"
The human-shaped creature had its tongue broken due to the old man''s unexpected attack. In great
pain, it couldn''t help but roar loudly to the sky.
But it also knew clearly that the old man was too powerful for it to provoke.
So instead, the creature turned around and fled feeling defeated.
"It''s toote," the skinny old man said in a low voice.
Austin and hispanions stared at him in surprise.
Although he was not far from Austin, he looked so surreal as if one was watching flowers in the mist or
seeing the moon from the water.
Austin concentrated and released his spiritual sense to hopefully explore the location of the old man,
but found that there was no one there.
His brows furrowing, he found it weird that the old man couldn''t be detected by his spiritual sense.
In general, things sensed by the spiritual sense would be more real and reliable than what was seen
with the naked eye.
"It seems that my eyes deceived me. As a matter of fact, no one has ever been in that position.
I only saw the scene that happened 10, 000 years ago."
He could not fathom his surprise as it was very unexpected.
What happened was beyond his imagination. He felt dizzy just by thinking about it because it was
impossible to exin it in an orderly fashion.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The void shook violently.
The creature with the shape of a human strode backward and was fleeing rapidly.
The old man stretched out a withered finger towards the direction of the human-shaped creature and
gently scratched.
Bang!
A beam of thick light was ejected, bright and dazzling, making people cover their eyes to avoid looking
straight into it.
"Howl!"
The creature sensed danger all over its body. It had no choice but to fight the old man.
As a result, it suddenly turned around and flung out a mighty fist with golden radiance.
The fist was covered with golden light scales, glittering and releasing a terrifying pressure of energy.
The space ahead of its fist copsed and exploded, and countless space fragments sshed, forming
eternal ck holes.
The creature smashed a space with a punch, and Austin could only imagine how powerful it was.
Bang!
The beam of light hit the giant golden fist of the humanoid creature.
Puff!
With a loud bang, the creature''s fist broke into pieces, and it spat out blood and flesh all over the sky.
Then, the beam of light continued to move forward.
Bang!
Finally, the beam of light shone into the body of the creature and hit the center of its heart.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The hideous creature froze all of a sudden. As soon as it stopped moving, cracks appeared on its
surface like spider web.
Bang!
Atst, its huge body exploded like a broken porcin bowl with pieces of flesh and bones spattering in
the air.
"Young man, I feel the aura of the Divine Continent from you.
Well, since I once lived at the Divine Continent, I will give you a present,"
the skinny old man said in a low voice, staring at Austin as if the light from his eyes had pierced
through the endless space.
"A present for me?" Austin asked, stunned at the old man''s words.
He had no idea what he meant by "present".
Instead of answering, the skinny old man reached out a withered hand again.
He reached out to where the creature''s remains had been destroyed as if he had found something.
"Sit down with your legs crossed. Focus your mind on one point and don''t think too much."
All of a sudden, all Austin could hear was the old man''s serious voice ringing loudly in his ears.
He was stunned for a few seconds but eventually did as he was told.
He sat in the air with his knees crossed, his eyes closed, and his hands ovepping on his elixir field.
Whoosh!
A shrill sound of wind reverberated through the sky.
He could feel that something was stuffed into his head from between his eyebrows by force.
Ah!
Austin screamed in the next moment.
He felt an overwhelming pain from the spot between his eyebrows, which went deep into his soul and
was too overwhelming to bear.
Admittedly, Austin''s body was much stronger than that of any other ordinary cultivators; however, even
Austin could not bear it.
It was unimaginable. He felt weak and dizzy from the pain.
"Just endure the pain. If you can take it, you will get a great present."
The old man''s voice sounded again.
Austin believed that this skinny old man would not hurt him; otherwise, with his strength, he could crush
Austin to death thousands of times with only one finger.
Austin sat cross-legged with his teeth gritted. His whole body was shaking violently, and he had to
endure the pain passed from between his eyebrows to his soul.
"Hey, little guys, this ce is very dangerous. The time and space have been twisted to an extreme
degree.
Otherwise, we wouldn''t have been able to see each other ten thousand years apart.
Not long after, the void here willpletely disappear. It will be a permanent quiet ce where
there is neither time nor space.
So, now I will send you all back to the East Maind of the Divine Continent."
The voice of the skinny old man sounded gently in the ears of Austin, the gnome and Violet.
The next moment, a strong spatial teleportation power came, wrapping Austin and his twopanions.
The three felt that their bodies were whirling around as they moved.
A momentter, the three stopped at the same time.
"We have returned to the East Maind,"
Violet screamed.
On the other side, Austin was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. He was still suffering from
great pain caused by the old man.
Then only two hourster, he felt much better.
The pain began to fade away slowly.
"Ouch! It hurts!"
Austin slowly opened his eyes. He was looking pale and weak from the struggling he had.
A sigh escaped from his lips when he found that his clothes were all wet with sweat, as if he had just
been pulled out of the water.
"What?! Master, you have one more eye!"
Violet eximed, looking at Austin in astonishment.
