COMING OF THE MARTIAL GOD, VOLUME 2 - Season 5 Episode 69

“But the gift I will give you does not come for free. There is a task that I will entrust to you.”

“What is it? Tell me and consider it done!” Austin said confidently. Though he didn’t know what Angus would ask of him, he vowed to himself that he would do it no matter what.

Besides, it was like doing an important task for a very noble martial artist.

“Well, when I was still alive, I managed to set up a sect. The sect is called Magic Hand Sect.

If you ever encounter Magic Hand Sect in your future endeavors, I need you to find a girl who goes by the name Ariadne and give this jade case to her. She is my only daughter in the world.”

Then, as Angus waved his hand, a jade case suddenly appeared in front of Austin. It was emitting a mild light.

Without any question, Austin took it and stored it in his Space Ring.

“But hundreds of years had passed. To be honest, I don’t even know if the Magic Hand Sect still exists. Maybe, it had disappeared in the never-ending river of time.

And don’t know if my poor daughter is still alive either.

For me, it was like yesterday. But five hundred years just went by like that,” Angus sighed. It was no surprise that a soul like him would be stuck in the memories of the past. After all, memories were what a dead soul was made of. It was memories that made them who they were.

“Has it really been five hundred years since you passed away? If that so… I’m sorry but… Angus, I’m afraid that your daughter might have already perished…”

Austin said. He couldn’t think of a more realistic way to put it. Besides, a normal person couldn’t live for more than one hundred years. Not unless that person had developed a body that could surpass the human limit, until…

Angus said, “Young man, maybe you’re not aware, but if one’s cultivation base reaches Imperial Realm, his life expectancy could reach up to 500 years. If one steps into Basic Sacred Realm, he can live for 1000 years. And if he reaches the Holy Realm, he could live up to 3, 000 years.

Judging your strength, I believe you have reached the Mysterious Realm. But if you further your cultivation, you will soon understand what I am telling you.

Again, if you meet my daughter Ariadne, tell her that I was killed by Lyman and that she should stay far away from him as possible.”

Austin was sure new to realms after the Mysterious Realm. It was the first time that he had heard about the Imperial Realm, Basic Sacred Realm, and Holy Realm. These realms of cultivation base were beyond his imagination. Given that he had reached the medium stage of the Mysterious Realm, he could already be considered as a powerful martial artist in the Violet Orchid Empire. But after hearing about the other realms, he realized that there was still a lot to learn and that if he went into the outside world, he might be regarded as the weak.

Austin was more impressed in the fact that a martial artist’s life expectancy could be extended when he reached the Imperial Realm.

“Sir, even if you don’t impart your medicine refinement skill to me, I will do as told if I meet your daughter,” Austin said sincerely.

“I understand. I have never thought that you value promise and personal loyalty so much.

Well then, open your Soul Sea, young man.” Austin did as Angus instructed.

Angus pointed his right hand’s index finger to Austin. Suddenly, a white light flashed toward Austin’s head.

Then, a book appeared in Austin’s Soul Sea. He quickly scanned it and found that the book was indeed about medicine refinement.

“Young man, all my knowledge and personal understanding about medicine refinement are in this book. If you have time, please study it carefully. I believe that with this, you can be at least a seven or eight-level medicine refiner,” Angus said as he finished passing down his knowledge of medicine refinement to Austin.

“Oh? So, medicine refiners are also divided into levels?” Austin asked curiously.

“Of course, young man. Their levels depend on the grade of medicine they have refined.

There are nine levels in medicine refinement.

Energy-boosting Elixir, for example, is the grade-two medicine. If a medicine refiner can refine it, his medicine refinement skill level is at grade-two as well.

Energy-prevailing Elixir is a kind of grade-three medicine hence, a refiner of such medicine would be at a third-level of medicine refinement,” Angus explained carefully. The old man appreciated Austin’s curiosity and his courage to ask a question without the fear of looking like a fool.

Austin finally understood how the medicine refiners’ skill was graded.

“An excellent medicine refiner, on the other hand, will need a powerful spiritual sense as his support.

I have a Soul-warming Bead. But since I’m just a broken soul without a Soul Sea, it is a waste for me to occupy it. So, I’ll just give it to you,” as he said, Angus bent his finger and flicked. A colorful sparkling bead appeared in front of Austin. It gave off colorful light that made it more attractive.

“Take this bead into your Soul Sea. It will nourish your spiritual sense at every moment. With its special effect, your spiritual sense will continuously be strengthened.”

Austin was overjoyed at the sight of the Soul-warming Bead. He tried to connect with it and succeeded. The bead answered his call—it turned into a light that shot into Austin’s Soul Sea.

The colorful bead illuminated every corner in his Soul Sea. It generated a warm feeling that Austin had never felt before.

And in an instant, he felt that his spiritual sense was enhanced.

Austin got thrilled at the effect of the Soul-warming Bead. Angus was right. It indeed could nourish his Soul Sea and improve his spiritual sense in every second.

With this Soul-warming Bead, he needn’t to deliberately spend time on cultivating spiritual sense anymore. It could instantly help his spiritual sense become more powerful. It was an amazing treasure that Austin had ever found.

Austin’s heart was filled with joy and gratefulness to the gifts that the old man had given him.

“Young man, the valley is a very good place to cultivate spiritual sense. If you are not in a rush, I suggest you take this opportunity to enhance your spiritual sense multiple times before you leave”, Augustus offered.
