Chapter 1834 Crises Everywhere
Along his way, Austin noticed that his entire path was surrounded by barren hills, cliffs and primeval
forests. In fact, most of the area around him was dead!
And there were swamps everywhere. If there weren''t swamps, then on the charred earth around him,
there were deep andrge gullies.
''It looks like a fierce and great battle took ce around here. Everything seems so... dead!''
This idea hit Austin''s mind out of nowhere when he looked around and saw the stunning ck gullies in
the distance. Along with that, several huge peaks far away from him seemed like they had been cut t
from the middle.
Another striking feature of the terrain around him was that the entire vast in was covered in some
sort of thick, scarlet mist, which was continuously drifting here and there and he could not see too far
from where he was standing; at least not clearly.
The smell of this bitter bloody red mist was exactly the same as the smell of human blood. Whatever
had happened here, several humans had died.
There was no doubt that the red mist that shrouded the ground was actually formed by human blood
evaporating with time and filling the very air of this ce.
At the same time, Austin heard several shrill cries resounding from the ins covered in scarlet mist
and far away from him.
It was the sort of ce no one dared to break into without permission or proper protection. The ce
was dangerous, deadly, and dead!
"Caw!"
Austin was standing on arge and deste mountain, made up of barren grey stones and looking far
into the distance. Suddenly, a loud noise made by some sort of bird resounded with a ferocity that
could crack the stones beneath his feet.
Then, a creepy chill fell all over the sky.
Austin hurriedly looked up, and saw a giant, ferocious-looking bird flying across the sky at a rapid pace.
It wasrge enough to instantly cover more than half of the visible sky. Its feathers were colorful and
shiny. But the ground had be dark underneath, as if night hade early.
Austin was shocked. What a huge bird! It was like a huge cloud had covered the whole area and it was
about to rain.
"Wait! There are more than one!"
As Austin gazed into the distance, he was immensely startled by what he saw. There were simr

clouds in the distant sky and from the looks of them, they were also the same kind of giant birds.
All of a sudden, one of those huge birds dove down from the sky and grabbed at something on the
ground with a pair of glittering ws, shining like solid gold, and cold as steel.
"Aargh!"
A scream arose from that ce.
Then the giant bird leaped into the sky once again, but this time, with dozens of warriors struggling and
screaming in each of its ws.
To Austin''s horror, the bird sent all the warriors who were trapped inside its ws into its mouth and ate
them all.
''This bird is eating people! It''s carnivorous!'' Austin thought inwardly with a pang of horror and disgust
hitting his heart.
His heart sank.
It wasn''t safe in here; he immediately used his bodily movement skill and rushed down the barren
mountain at top speed. He didn''t stop until he had arrived at a hill which was rtively unnoticeable.
Bang!
All of a sudden, the entire sky seemed to shake. A small mountain seemed to somehow float up into
the sky, releasing a tremendous intent of murder.
"How can a mountain move?"
Austin found the sight strange at first, but then, that surprise turned into a look of horror as he realized
the truth. It was not a mountain; it was a giant, cyan snake.
Its body was so enormous in proportions that as it knelt down in the distance, it looked like a small
mountain.
The snake soared into the sky and fought with the giant bird who was eating the warriors. The former''s
scales fluttered, as did the colorful feathers of thetter. Blood spattered down, of all the creatures that
were engaged in that battle. The fight was extremely fierce.
''It looks like there are arge number of wild beasts in the Fallen Immortal World.
It is said that this world is the ce where the immortals actually died. That means it must be extremely
dangerous indeed.
I need to be more careful every step of the way!''
Austin decided inwardly. Numerousplex feelings were rising and falling in his heart.
Not long ago, he had encountered the legendary thunder beast, and now, he was bearing witness to
mountain-like snakes and carnivorous birds.
This reminded Austin that he had to be on the lookout for all sorts of monstrous creatures.
Austin then gazed into the distance on the ground. The ancient woods towered into the sky. The
mountains and rivers seemed of primitive origin. Several old vines were twisting on those mountains.
This was clearly a world that had formed several millions of years ago. It was ancient!
"Ah..."
Yet another scream of a human came from a mountain range in the distance. As soon as Austin heard
it, he changed into a shadow and rushed over to see what was going on.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of a valley, albeit slightlyte. He saw that a warrior had died in the
mouth of a golden tiger by being bitten into two parts.
It was a huge and wide valley in front of him, dense with spiritual energy, yet filled with dangers. A
dense purple mist was surging upwards inside it.
Moreover, to Austin''s surprise, faint bursts of fairy music wereing from deep within the valley.
"There are vast amounts of extremely valuable superior herbs in the valley,"
the gnome told Austin inside his Soul Sea.
Austin nodded in response.
The gnome might be correct, but there was arge group of people guarding the whole valley. He
couldn''t get inside just like that.
From uniform, they seemed to be from a sect from outside the East Maind. Austin guessed that they
must be warriors of one sect in other ces of the Divine Continent.
He also noticed that several cultivators among those guards were at the Heavenly Grotto Realm.
A cultivator at the Heavenly Grotto Realm was equivalent to a reclusive elder of the holynds in the
East Maind.
In retrospect, Austin had killed the elder of the Ji n. But to be honest, the elder''s power was only
equivalent to any ordinary elder.
Moreover, at that time, Austin had only managed to seed by employing all his might.
Now, he could see at least a dozen cultivators of the Heavenly Grotto Realm in direct sight. Austin
knew that even if there were precious natural resources in the valley, he had no chance of getting to
them bypeting with these people.
Without hesitation, he turned around and walked away. Life was more important.
But suddenly, his ns were waid!
Bang!
Suddenly, an enormously wide beam of red light pierced through the air and appeared in front of
Austin. A giant and deep pit appeared on the ground where it hit and as it disappeared, people
appeared.
Austin was taken aback and a chill came into his eyes. He looked at the figure floating in the air not far
away which had just materialized with the light.
It was a handsome young man, looking at Austin with a half smile. His eyes were as long and thin as
that of a ghost and seemed nk and deadly.
There were more than ten cultivators standing on either side of him in perfect symmetry. They all held
giant bows in their hands and were looking at Austin with murderous looks, sneering at their enemy.
"You can''t turn back. My senior wants you to go in there,"
said the young man as he pointed towards the entrance of the valley, where a middle-aged man was
miraculously sitting in the air with his legs crossed.
Thetter''s strength was at the Heavenly Grotto Realm. He must have been the senior master.
"I don''t know you guys. What''s the matter?"
Austin controlled his anger and asked in a calm tone.
"Just do as we say and get in there. You have no right to ask or choose. We rule this ce!"
The young man got impatient immediately. He seemed to be looking down at Austin,pletely
ignoring his question.
"What if I don''t?"
Austin got angry too and his heart became filled with a killing intent. He stared at the young man
fiercely.
Thetter was instantly terrified to pieces by Austin''s murderous stare and felt like he was being looked
at by a wild beast.
This was the murderous will that Austin had developed through years of killing.
"Damn it! Do you want to die?
Because I can help you with that immediately!"
The young man now lost control. He immediately took out a feather arrow from his back, put it in the
huge bow in his hand, and aimed at Austin.
"Wait!
What happened?"
The middle-aged man, who Austin had guessed to be a great master, somehow sent out his gaze,
which pierced through space and fell right on Austin.
"Don''t kill him. Let hime over to me. He might prove useful!"
The middle-aged man looked Austin from head to toe and then ordered.
