The Supreme God of Martial Arts
Chapter 5057 His Frightening Seniority

"Yes, my master is indeed in this lamentable state,"

the middle-aged man said woefully.

"But please, come forward and see him."

He motioned for Austin to step forward.

Austin strode forward to the crystal casket.

"This junior gives his deep respects to his senior," he said, bowing respectfully.

The old man in white robes inside the casket remained still.

But a nebulous figure started to materialize above the casket.

It gradually became more and more solid in form.

It wasn't long before the figure revealed itself to be the old man in white robes.

But Austin could tell that it was just a spiritual soul mark.

He was surprised to find, however, that even just the old man's spiritual soul mark still emitted an aura so powerful that the space-time around him rippled and roiled.

The old man's figure floated with nary a movement, but the space around him seemed to be completely under his control.

He looked Austin up and down appraisingly.

"Young man, what brings you to my resting place?"

he asked, his voice slow and ancient.

"Sir, I came here in search of the fruit of supreme enlightenment.

I didn't mean to disturb your rest. Please forgive my brashness!"

Austin responded, bowing deferentially.

I see. You are also here for the fruit of supreme enlightenment.

For governing gods like you, it would indeed be a great boon."

The old man nodded slowly.

"Truth be told, it was just something I planted for display in my garden at the spur of the moment."

It is dispensable for me. Since you seem in dire need of it and came all the way here, I'll let you pick some,"

he said kindly.

Austin felt his heart burst with giddy relief and joy.

"Thank you, sir! You have my eternal gratitude!"

He had thought he would have to go through countless hardships to get the fruits of supreme enlightenment. He never imagined it would be this easy.

The old man in white robes waved Austin's words away modestly.

"It is nothing. Consider it my pleasure,” he said, smiling.

"But I feel a strong aura of reincarnation from you,

Have you ever come across the reincarnation race?

Or are you one of their members?"

the old man in white robes asked.

"Yes, sir. I am indeed a member of the reincarnation race,"

Austin admitted readily.

The old man didn't strike him as malicious. He seemed forthright and trustworthy. Austin felt there was no need to hide his true identity from him.

Besides, he knew he indeed gave off a strong aura of reincarnation. There was no point hiding it.

"I see.

Then I wonder if you know how the three little fellows who founded the reincarnation race are doing.

I had seen with my own eyes how they had built up the reincarnation race into the success it became, making it a formidable force in the Absolute Space Sea.

The road of reincarnation even connected the countless space seas in the Absolute Space Sea, controlling the reincarnation of countless creatures.

Those three young men had indeed accomplished such wondrous feats.

They were still young and inexperienced the first time I met them, but even then, I already felt that they had immense potential and would achieve greatness.

They eventually proved me correct,”

the old man in white robes smiled proudly.

"The three little fellows who founded the reincarnation race?

Do you mean..."

Austin was stumped.

It was known to all in the Absolute Space Sea that the reincarnation race was established by the three Lords of Reincarnation.

Could they be the three young men mentioned by the old man in white robes?

But they were already the oldest top masters in the Absolute Space Sea! How ancient was this man in white robes that he would have known the founders even as young men?

Austin couldn't imagine it.

Someone with seniority higher than that of the three Lords of Reincarnation? It boggled his mind.

"Sir, as far as I know, it was the three Lords of Reincarnation that created the reincarnation race,"

Austin answered cautiously.

"Yes. It was them, indeed.

But did you know it wasn't their idea to establish the reincarnation race?

In fact, it was their master's.

[used to have tea with him on several occasions.

Their master had told me many times that he wanted to establish a force of reincarnation. So the three of them were following their master's wishes when they founded the reincarnation race,"

the old man in white robes recalled fondly.

"The master of the three Lords of Reincarnation?!"

Austin couldn't help but sputter out.

It was the first time that he had heard that the three Lords of Reincarnation even had a master! Much less that it was on his orders that the reincarnation race was established!

Based on his stories, it would appear the old man in white robes was of equal seniority to the master of the three Lords of Reincarnation.

It dawned on Austin he was in the presence of an unimaginably powerful figure.

It was unfortunate only his spiritual soul mark remained now.

T wonder what happened.

What could have felled such a master?"
