"Austin, you have made a right decision not to become a genuine divine god by eating the Divine
Accomplishment Fruit.
Although it can help you become a genuine divine god in a much shorter span of time, it also has a
side-effect that you might not want.
It's like trading a part of your potentials for becoming a genuine divine god in the soonest possible time.
Because of that, you will achieve far less things than you were destined to do.
But if you follow the genuine process and cultivate with all your might, you will eventually become a
true powerful genuine divine god. You shall have unlimited potential for further development in the
future,"
the statue on the square said, encouraging Austin.
"Austin, you are really a talented young man, overflowing with potential. Although you are merely an
ordinary preliminary-grade divine god, you already have the ability to defeat the genuine premium-
grade divine god.
Even in the ancient times, you would be considered a remarkable talented cultivator among the people
of your generation.
If you choose this path, it will be more difficult for you to become a genuine divine god and it will take
longer. You will have to pay a higher price than the others.
There is a law to keep the balance in the chaotic space—talents and heroes always go through more
hardships than ordinary people,"
the statue continued.
By explaining patiently, he was enlightening Austin.
Only divine gods of his level could know the secrets of the genuine divine gods and understand the
basic laws in all worlds and cosmoses.
"But don't be upset. I know how badly you want to become a genuine divine god.
Once you become one, your fighting power will be beyond your wildest dreams,"
the statue continued.
"Master, I understand."
Austin nodded his head.
"I can see that you have almost accumulated enough experience while you traveled across the Sea of
Chaos.
I am confident that you will definitely break through and become a genuine divine god very soon.
But don't rush it. It's best if you let nature take its course.
I'm sure you already know that the higher one's cultivation base is, the more calm and wise one should
be about pursuing higher vital energy realms.
Everything should follow the law of nature and let it run its course.
I'm just afraid that you might be in a rush. That's why I'm having the talk with you,"
the statue said.
"Thank you for your advice, master. I will adjust my state of mind and give your advice some very
serious consideration,"
Austin said gratefully.
Even mortals understood what the statue said.
However, the greatest truths were the simplest.
It was these simplest laws and principles that made everything run smoothly and efficiently in the
cosmoses.
Now the truth had been spoken, straight from the mouth of a god of chaos, which immensely
enlightened Austin.
'True, I have been excessively obsessed with becoming a genuine divine god.
Maybe that's why I am yet to make it. I have been focusing my energy on the wrong things.
Next, I need to relax and let nature take its course. As I accumulate enough energy and experience, I
will naturally become a genuine divine god, '
Austin thought to himself, feeling quite relieved, as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
"I'm glad to be of help,"
the statue said in a gratified tone and with a faint smile.
"Austin, I can see that you are significantly good at swordsmanship.
I am going to teach you a sword technique called the Mind Sword Skill.
It was a brilliant sword skill during the ancient times. I am sure that you will find it useful when the need
arises.
Once you succeed in cultivating it, you can fight and easily defeat your enemies without lifting a finger.
You can fight by simply using your mind,"
the statue said.
"Thank you, master! I appreciate it!"
Austin was elated.
"Let me tell you, the Mind Sword Skill has something in common with the Flying Swordsmanship that
you have already mastered.
When you unleash the Flying Swordsmanship, you need an actual sword to attack the enemy.
But a sword is no longer needed with the Mind Sword Skill.
To cultivate it, you will need to cultivate mind power.
The cultivation of mind power mainly depends on talent and comprehension abilities, something that
you abundantly have both of.
I will teach you the cultivation methods of mind power and the Mind Sword Skill.
Whether you can master it or not depends on the talent and comprehension abilities that you already
have.
No one can help you with it, but yourself."
As soon as the statue finished speaking, a beam of blinding light rushed into Austin's Soul Sea.
"Go forth and work on your new skills. If you have any questions, you can always come to ask me. The
best of luck to you Austin,"
the statue concluded.
Austin bid farewell to the statue and quickly returned to his cultivation room, eager to try out the new
skill that the statue had given him.
Inside the room, he carefully read the introduction of the mind power.
In no time, he discovered that the so-called mind power was actually a combination of spiritual sense
and will.
It was a special kind of energy produced in the process of thinking.
Whenever a creature began to think, a mind power would be created. When one stopped thinking, it
would disappear immediately.
In a word, spiritual sense was a kind of energy accumulated by the spiritual soul after a long-term
cultivation and it was kept in the Soul Sea.
Simply put, the mind power and spiritual sense were two different kinds of energy.
But there was another explanation. The mind power was, in truth, the spiritual sense which was
condensed to the extreme degree.
After briefly studying the conditions, Austin began to cultivate the mind power.
It was no easy work cultivating it. Learning that was at least one hundred thousand times, a million
times more challenging than simply cultivating the spiritual sense.
Talent played a crucial role in it.
If one didn't have such a talent, he might never be able to master the mind power, no matter how hard
he tried.
Inside the secret chamber, Austin sat cross-legged.
"Let me start with you."
Austin took out a jade slip and suspended it in front of him.
Then, he concentrated on comprehending the jade slip.
The mind power was abstract and it was impossible to touch.
He could only meditate quietly, trying to produce the mind power.
This required one to clear up his mind, and remain this state for a period of time.
Likewise, one needed to have a tremendous amount of patience.
In the secret room, Austin sat motionless like a giant stone.
Time passed slowly.
One day, a blue airship passed through a spatial passage in the Sea of Chaos.
"It won't be very long until we reach the three thousand big and small universes."
"I hope the creatures and residents of this universe community will accept us."
Numerous voices that were full of hope and expectation resounded all over the vessel.
Among its passengers were members of the mermaid race.
All of a sudden, and with a loud noise, a black hand appeared from out of nowhere.
It crushed the spatial channel in just a split of a heartbeat.
The blue airship was being thrown around because of the turbulence. It managed to stop in its tracks
while it was several billion miles away from where it had been.
Just then, a figure appeared in front of the airship, blocking its way.
"Are you people from the mermaid race trying to go against my orders? How dare you run away like
this?"
he said impassively.
"Oh, no! Look! It's Ronnie!"
Inside the airship, the members of the mermaid race were huddled in one corner, completely terrified.
They all knew that Ronnie was a governing god and that he had come for them.
Being a semi-governing god, Elmer was the strongest one among them.
If Ronnie caught up with them, they knew that they stood no chance against him.
"It's not his real body. It's just an avatar," Elmer said with a deep frown.
There was a flash of seriousness in his eyes.
"Although I am just an avatar, it's going to be a piece of cake for me to bring you traitors back,"
Ronnie's avatar said with a scornful sneer.
As he spoke, Ronnie's avatar walked towards the blue airship with determination in each step.
"Ronnie, we have no issues against you.
Why are you pushing us like this? Are you really going to kill all of us?"
Elmer huffed.
"Ha-ha! Who told you that I was going to destroy you? Listen, I want to be a part of your family!
Once I marry all the young women in your race, we will become one big happy family!"
Ronnie let out a harsh laugh and his voice was full of malice.
