Chapter 1668 The Door Of The Spiritual Tower Is Opening (2/2)

Austin assumed that Edward would gain the upper hand soon.

What happened later confirmed his assumption!

Two hours passed in the grueling duel. That was when Max was forced to shoot at a far distance.

He quickly managed to steady himself, but he was already a thousand meters away from Edward.

His face was turning pale gradually as he kept spitting out blood. It was evident that he was severely injured.

”Come on, this isn't over yet!” Edward said loudly.

On seeing Max spitting blood and getting hurt, he became more confident. He emitted dazzling golden light as if he was a deity. He took a stride in a bid to charge at his opponent. Obviously h

no harm and had to return empty handed.

Ever since, no cultivators in the East Mainland took up a chance of breaking into the Spiritual Tower.

Since the great masters failed to destroy the door of Spiritual Tower with the ultimate magical treasures, they thought it was a futile attempt to open the gates forcibly.

Austin perceived all the young cultivators around the tower with the aid of his spiritual sense and spotted many acquaintances.

He saw the Peacock Princess, Edward and Max.

Later, his eyes fell on a girl, whose face seemed familiar to him. It took him a few moments to recognize her.

”Stacy is here,” he murmured to himself.

”Belle has come too.”

He had caught sight of Belle—the granddaughter of the prime minister from the Solamnia Kingdom.

He remembered that when the Martial Arts Tournament had ended, the representative of the Jade Sect had recruited her as their disciple because she had the Crystal Moonlight Body.

Austin hadn't seen her since then. To his surprise, he had got the chance to meet her again.

As his gaze moved around across the crowd, he saw a disciple of the Vasteras Holy Land—Howard.

”Howard!”

Austin remarked, as his face turned dark.

Austin and Howard had agreed to have a duel, but it had been delayed due to many things that had happened in between.

The people from top sects and clans from the East Mainland had assaulted the base of the Flame Holy Land and ruined it.

Because of that, Austin had to hide in the former headquarters of the Flame Holy Land. He stayed there in hiding for three years, and used the time to cultivate.

'That's great! Now that he is here, we can have the fight in the Spiritual Tower to fulfill our promises, ' Austin thought as he had his eyes fixated on Howard.

The man whom he wanted to defeat so desperately was standing there. And Austin was filled with a new energy rising due to anger and hatred for he wanted to win the duel against Howard at any cost.
