Arriving at the abyss, Austin looked out from the rock he perched on. Single-plank bridges ran across the endless darkness and
people were being herded across them like sheep. Squinting his eyes, Austin noticed that they were all disciples of the famous
sects and the four schools in the Middle Pilgrim Land.
Each single-plank bridge was guarded by senior cultivators, and all the ones from the other four regions of the Divine Continent
were blocked. Austin could see sof the cultivators as they argued to use the bridges, but the elders remained stoic and didn't
answer their questions.
Even though the cultivators from the other four regions did not agree the arrangement, they had no choice. Those people of the
Middle Pilgrim Land were strong and their fighting skills were advanced. If the cultivators from the other four regions were to fight
against them, even if the former worked together, it would be unlikely that they would emerge victorious.
Before a battle could take place, the people of the Middle Pilgrim Land had passed the abyss, and the others were allowed to cross
the single-plank bridges.
Seeing this, Austin jumped from the rock and sneaked into the line of the cultivators. Finally, he was able to cross the abyss.
On the other end of the bridge, a valley filled with spiritual energy spread out in front of them. It was already crowded with people,
but that didn't discourage the newcomers.
Brown mountains hugged the horizon. They weren't very tall and purple spiritual energy floated off the tops of them like steam
from a kettle. The entire place resembled a fairyland one would find depicted in a storybook.
In the distance, a purple cliff rose and vines glinted in the light. The aroma of high-grade superior herbs wafted through the air.
It was a pure land, peaceful and intimate. There weren't any poisonous insects or beasts present. It was hof thousands of rare
superior herbs and precious natural materials, all found in the gaps of the mountain walls. At a glance, everything had a
mesmerizing purple glow.
"Wow, there are so many treasures here!
Let's collect until there are none left!"
The cultivators nodded in approval and split off in different directions, rushing to collect as much as possible.
A lot of the treasures had already been picked off around the entrance of the valley. The unfair head start of the people of the
Middle Pilgrim Land and the four schools had worked in their favor.
Austin felt pleasure course through his veins as he joined the group entering the valley. He would be rich by the the left.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBy now, all the cultivators except for Austin had collect at least one of the high-grade superior herbs or precious natural materials.
He was too distracted by the beauty of the place.
Snapping out of it, he noticed something peculiar. When the cultivators tried to activate their bodily movement skills, they couldn't
lift off the ground.
It didn't matter whether or not they had high cultivation base levels; they all had to run on the ground in order to collect.
If one encountered a mountain, they had no choice but to climb up from the bottom to the top.
More specifically, there were superior herbs and treasures on the precipices of the mountains. In order to reach them, they would
have to make the dangerous climb to the tip to pluck them.
To succeed in this valley, a cultivator had to be strong.
A smile spread on Austin's cheeks. He was easily the strongest among the cultivators there.
Taking off at full speed, he outran everyone he had arrived with.
Running on the flat ground and climbing the mountain was so simple to Austin that he laughed while doing it.
When he tackled the precipices, he was like an agile monkey swinging from branch to branch.
He could afford to be picky while he collected and he only took the treasures of the highest quality, filling his Space Ring.
"Damn it! How can that guy run so fast?"
"He is just like a leopard. Is he part cat?"
As Austin flew past them, they stopped what they were doing and watched him with narrowed eyes.
They all knew that whoever moved the fastest would get more treasures, so they were very anxious when they saw Austin's
astonishing speed.
"Hey, boy! What are you doing? | saw the eighth-grade superior herbs on that cliff first.
And | have already climbed halfway. You can't cut in line, so get behind me!"
Dozens of cultivators were climbing a cliff but the one in front was the angriest. The quality of the superior herbs there was so
tempting that Austin climbed as fast as lightning. He sat above the other cultivators’ heads and started plucking them contentedly.
Below him, the cultivators had just reached the middle of the cliff and began shouting at him and shaking their fists.
"Are you kidding me?
| also spotted all the superior herbs and treasures here earlier.
If that is the rule, then don't they all belong to me? See? Your rule is stupid!"
Austin shouted back to the cultivators. He rolled his eyes and turned back to the treasures.
Then, with a newfound furor, he picked the rest of the superior herbs and climbed back down the cliff.
"Son of a bitch! Go to hell!"
"Lad, you are seeking death!"
The dozen cultivators who were still on the cliff were infuriated as they watched him escape.
Anyone in their position would have been understandably jealous.
However, making it worse, Austin kept repeating the action.
He was on a mission to find as many superior herbs and precious natural materials as he could before the other cultivators.
Austin planned to cultivate the Immortal Body Refining Formula again, so he needed a great number of precious natural materials
and superior herbs.
Feeling the pressure, Austin sped up until he had reached his maximum speed.
He covered most of the area within an hour, stooping and climbing to collect before the other cultivators could get their hands on
anything.
He was stealing superior herbs and precious natural materials that had been seen first by the people from the Middle Pilgrim Land.
As twent on, Austin filled his resources until they were bursting. Everywhere he turned, people were glaring at him. He had
beca public enemy of most of the people here.
"Damn it! It's that guy again! Just now, | was about to pick a ninth-grade superior herb, but he unexpectedly appeared at my side
and took it away,"
cursed a cultivator, pointing at Austin's back and gnashing his teeth.
"Be careful! He is approaching again. We have to hurry or he will rob us of our chance to collect."
The cultivators were standing at the base of one of the mountains and when they saw Austin coming, they began running as fast
as they could.
But with Austin's physical strength, who could be faster than him?
In a flash, Austin ran around the mountain once just to show off and then climbed the other side of it and grabbed all the superior
herbs before they were even halfway.
When those cultivators finally reached the top of the mountain, Austin had already left.
"Son of a bitch! Stop!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Ah!
| am going to kill that damned boy when | can catch up to him!"
They all began yelling until it all blurred into noise that no one could decipher.
While he was collecting treasures, Austin also met the people of the FlHoly Land, the beast race, the fire crow race, Ward's
bandit team, and even the Deep Sea Commercial House.
They were the exception to his mission. Whenever he cacross them, he would help them instead of robbing them.
He didn't have many people on his side at this point, but he hoped he could rely on them if a battle occurred.
Everyone was glaring at Austin angrily, including the people from sects of the Middle Pilgrim Land, the four schools, and the other
four regions of the Divine Continent.
"Everybody, we need to catch this guy before he takes all the treasures for himself!"
"Right! He's unbeatable alone. Guys, we need to unite against him. The superior herbs and the precious natural materials that he
just obtained are much better than what we have in both quantity and quality."
"Don't run, brat! Stop!"
"Boy, you will die!" "Shit! Leave your treasures!"
Immediately, many people began chasing after Austin.
"Uh oh! Damn it! | think | took things too far.
I'd better leave now," murmured Austin.
He was well aware of the impossibility of dealing with a large number of cultivators on his own.
At the thought of this, Austin had no choice but to leave the area and move deeper into the valley.
