The Supreme God

What confused Austin and the fire source beast most was the dearth of strange creatures nearby. They had encountered many along the way, but after arriving in front of the mountain, they found themselves alone. There was no sign of life around them.

"I can sense that the creatures came down from this mountain. This is most definitely their lair,"

the fire source beast frowned.

This space was filled with sacred fire, so his spiritual sense was much stronger than Austin's.

"If you say so."

Austin nodded lightly. He couldn't comment since he was unable to see too far through this sea of fire.

"Let's go and take a look!" he added after thinking for a while.

The duo continued towards the mountain in front of them, with Austin in lead

and the fire source beast close behind.

After a while, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Apart from a lack of life-forms, they also noticed that the sacred fire was decreasing as they drew further along.

And here, at the foot of the mountain, it was almost gone.

Instead, it looked like they had entered an expanse of darkness now, with no light to guide them.

A cold fog shrouded the area around them, covering the heaven and the earth from view. It was a cold and dark place.

Searching for a way up, Austin and the fire source beast discovered a road that led up the mountain and immediately took it.

Their surroundings had gone eerily quiet, as if they were walking under the shade of the night.

The fog was getting denser with each of their steps.

No animals or creatures were in sight, and the road was covered in moss. But under the dense fog, even the green moss seemed to have turned a sickly shade and the whole place looked dead and desolate.

It was hard to tell how long it had been since someone had last trodden upon this road.

And yet, Austin and the fire source beast felt like hundreds of eyes were watching them climb the mountain.

"Be careful. The atmosphere feels weird,"

the fire source beast warned Austin softly.

"You're right."

Austin nodded.
