Chapter 15 The Overnight Hard Work Paid Off! (2/2)

The Energy-boosting Elixir was a medicine used exclusively by those in the Energy Gathering Realm to help them level up big time.

If one took an Energy-boosting Elixir before he challenged a higher level, the odds of him breaking through that level would double.

If he originally had a fifty percent chance, taking the elixir would nearly guarantee him a successful breakthrough.

However, the Energy-boosting Elixir was quite expensive and only a limited amount was available in Sun Sect.

Only those disciples who were extraordinarily talented and enjoyed a special treatment of the sect could have some.

Austin had pulled through tons of hardships and completed the tasks that the sect assigned him before he became the top of the outer disciples.

Throughout the whole process, he obtained only two Energy-boosting Elixirs.

But now, ten precious elixirs were in his hands and it felt like a dream.

Austin gingerly placed the Energy-boosting Elixirs bottle in a corner of the Space Ring.

After securing the first bottle, he then opened the other one only to find two golden elixirs inside it.

For a moment, Austin stared blankly at the two elixirs. He felt that he had seen one like that before but could not remember when or where and what it was.

But after a thoughtful study of the elixirs, Austin's eyes suddenly widened with disbelief.

He felt his breathing becoming heavy and even his heart started pounding uncontrollably in his chest.

He finally figured out what those two golden elixirs were!

'This could be my lucky day!'

For the past minutes, Rafat's Space Ring had given Austin too much to take in. But now was more utterly overwhelming than the previous loots.

The last bottle was filled with Energy-prevailing Elixirs!

Those elixirs could be used when a practitioner wanted to move from the ninth level of the Energy Gathering Realm to the Earth Realm.

That could be a breakthrough between two different realms.

Compared to the breakthrough between different levels within one realm, to level up from a lower realm to a higher one is at least ten times more challenging to achieve.

But with the help of the Energy-prevailing Elixir, one could overcome the challenge to reach a higher realm.

Back then, Austin had reached the ninth level of the Energy Gathering Realm and he was trying to enter the Earth Realm.

But despite Austin's high learning agility, it was still quite difficult for him to cross from one realm to another.

Austin's countless attempts got him nowhere so far.

If he could get hold of an Energy-prevailing Elixir, he would be quite hopeful to make a breakthrough.

But at that time, getting the elixir was just wishful thinking.

He never mentioned it to anyone because he was clear that only the key disciples in Sun Sect had access to the precious Energy-prevailing Elixirs.

Even the inner disciples had no opportunity to get one. That was why, as an outer disciple, Austin could only dream of having such elixir.

Austin was the top outer disciples, but he was not a key member of Sun Sect.

Although he had drawn some attention from the sect heads, he was still far from being able to enjoy the priceless Energy-prevailing Elixir that was provided exclusively to core disciples.

The only time he caught a glance at that elixir was when the teaching steward was holding one. And since then, he had never forgotten what the elixir looked like.

When he recognized the elixir in his hands, Austin instantly knew that he could now challenge the Earth Realm with only half the effort.

With that thought, Austin carefully deposited the two Energy-prevailing Elixirs into the Space Ring despite his excitement.

Then, he exhaled in relief and thought, 'It turned out that the overnight hard work was worth it after all!'

He had attained two secret manuals that he could practice, two bottles of expensive elixirs, and an odd dagger which he had no idea how to use.

As to the Yin and Yang Diabolical Cultivation Method, he decided that there was no use for such method, so he completely ignored it.

After packing everything up, Austin fondled the Space Ring on his finger.

He liked the feel of the ring on his finger, but then pulled it off and dropped it into one of his pockets.

Considering that he was still a grunt disciple, having a Space Ring was very unlikely of him.

If he wore it blatantly, he would attract some covetous eyes.

Having lived two different worlds, Austin understood that it was better not to flaunt his considerable wealth.

Therefore, he chose to put away the Space Ring.

With the ring out of his sight, he finally managed to regain his composure.

He then sat down in silence to study an object in his hands.

It was the ring-like jade pendant that had been dangling on his chest.

Last night when he battled with Rafat, it was the jade pendant that protected him from the last blow his opponent launched.

Austin examined the pendant's every corner.

After studying all its sides, he held it up under the sun and appraised carefully.

But he failed to detect anything special about the jade pendant. It looked just ordinary from every angle he looked at it.
