Swoosh!
With a terrifying aura, the bright flying sword flew across the sky at the speed of lightning and chased
after the eleven guards.
Naturally, both its speed and power were astonishing.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Immediately after, the guards were slashed by the vicious flying sword.
Splat!
The very next moment, the bodies of the eleven guards were cut into countless pieces.
Their blood and bones splashed and scattered everywhere.
"Argh..."
At the same time, miserable screams echoed in the void.
Austin wasted no time and rushed forward. He waved his sleeve and attempted to capture their
spiritual souls. He also collected all their broken limbs, flesh, bones, and blood before imprisoning
them.
However, at this moment,
something unexpected suddenly happened.
Boom! Boom!
In the starry sky of the Ethereal World, two beams of black sword-lights flashed over. They carried an
enormous amount of chaotic energy and the pressure they contained shook the entire sky.
Swoosh!
The sword-lights came after Austin, shattering the space wherever they passed by.
"Humph! Those bastards!"
Austin was more annoyed than shocked. He knew instantly that Warner and Emmet were the ones
behind this attack.
Swoosh!
With his quick reflexes, Austin opened his mouth and let out his flying sword.
Clang! Clang!
The flying sword collided with the black sword-lights, creating an almost deafening noise.
Upon impact, the fierce sword energy dispersed and exploded on the spot, generating huge mushroom
clouds that soared into the sky.
In an instant, the starry sky fell into chaos, turning into a dark vacuum zone.
'Hmm. I guess it's true that Warner and Emmet are on a different level than those governing gods from
the four major forces,'
Austin thought to himself after seeing the scale of destruction made from the clash of their attacks.
Soon enough, he also noticed that the eleven guards had disappeared. It turned out that Warner and
Emmet's attack served as a distraction so that their subordinates could escape.
"Don't waste my time! If you want to face me, just come out and fight me head-on!
Stop hiding in the dark, you cowards!"
Austin taunted Warner and Emmet and looked intently at the direction where the two were staying.
"What did he just say? This guy is so fucking arrogant!"
Both Warner and Emmet couldn't prevent themselves from cursing because of exasperation.
They couldn't believe Austin's audacity to talk trash against them. Even the governing gods of the four
major forces had to show respect when facing them.
However, this young man dared to speak to them like they were even beneath his level.
They had not suffered this kind of humiliation in their entire lives. Obviously, they were fuming in rage.
"But this guy's fighting power is very unusual.
I don't think he has even shown his real strength yet,"
Emmet said through gritted teeth.
"I remembered them saying that he once fought a dozen governing gods but was able to stand his
ground against them.
I know he's strong, but that's a little exaggerated!
We'd better find out the extent of his real strength first before we personally engage him,"
Emmet proposed.
Between Warner and him, he was always the cautious one.
"You're worrying too much.
Of course, that story is full of exaggeration! Where can you find a genuine premium-grade divine god
who fought against a dozen governing gods and lived?!
Only those who are foolish enough would believe that kind of bullshit!"
Warner exclaimed, plainly denying the thought that Austin was at their level.
"All right. How about this?
Those old guys from the four major forces wanted to kill this brat so badly, right?
Why don't we contact them and ask them to come here?
If we joined hands with them, then we can surely finish off this guy in no time,"
Emmet suggested.
"What the hell are you implying?
You want to team up with those old guys just to deal with this brat?
Is that even necessary?
We can beat the shit out of this guy!"
Warner strongly expressed his disapproval.
"But we can't be too careless!
This guy has been the talk of the entire Sword Cosmos recently. We haven't seen his real strength. We
don't know if he's still hiding some incredible skills. You've seen how he effortlessly dismembered the
Twelve Ethereal Guards,"
Emmet still argued his side.
"Fine! Whatever.
You're always like this. I don't know how to make you bold enough."
Warner finally gave in, shaking his head helplessly.
As they came up with the decision, Emmet immediately sent a message to the governing gods of the
four major forces.
As expected, the governing gods of the four major forces instantly rushed to the Ethereal World as
soon as they received the message from Emmet.
They hoped that the three would kill each other, but they couldn't let the chance to kill Austin slip by.
After all, Austin was currently the biggest threat to all the four major forces.
If they weren't able to get rid of Austin, the governing gods of the four major forces would always be
restless.
"You won't come out? Fine by me! I'll just find you then!"
Austin threatened the two. At this moment, his spiritual sense had already been locked towards
Warner.
He was the one who destroyed the five strongholds of the Curry Sword Sect.
Moreover, he also killed many of Austin's divine god slaves.
When he went and investigated the decimated strongholds, Austin was able to trace Warner's aura
through his brilliant deduction skill. It was also the reason why he was able to track him down all the
way to the Ethereal World.
In the starry sky, Austin rapidly strode towards the direction in which he could detect Warner's aura.
"Humph!
This conceited bastard!"
Warner's face darkened as he saw that Austin was fast approaching.
Austin was the first person in the entire Sword Cosmos who dared to offend him like this.
Warner was trembling in anger at the thought that he was actually being looked down upon.
"Come here, you piece of shit.
Let me see how strong you really are!"
Warner couldn't stand it anymore. He couldn't wait for the governing gods from the four major forces.
He stood up and strode towards Austin.
Emmet couldn't help but let out a frown, but he had no choice but to come too.
After everything that they had witnessed, he stayed on guard against Austin and didn't dare to
underestimate the young man's prowess.
He hadn't seen with his own eyes what Austin did in the Sword Cosmos, but he had a gut feeling that
the young man was hiding some extraordinary talent that could be totally dangerous.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Warner and Emmet moved extremely fast as they tried to intercept Austin.
In an instant, the two sides met each other above the sky of the Ethereal World. They maintained a
certain distance while staring at each other with piercing gazes.
Finally, they were able to meet face-to-face.
At this moment, Austin was actually focused on just one of them.
After all, his goal was to find the man who was responsible for the destruction of several Curry Sword
Sect's strongholds and the deaths of his divine god slaves.
"Are you the one who destroyed the strongholds of the Curry Sword Sect and killed my men in the
process?"
Austin asked with a straight face. There was no hint of fear or panic in his eyes, just pure killing intent.
"Yeah, I did that.
So, what are you going to do?
You're even fortunate. I just destroyed a few of those strongholds. Crushing an entire sect wouldn't
even make me sweat.
Is that the only reason why you broke into the Ethereal World so boldly?
Well, there's bad news for you. It's easy to come in here, but you won't leave this place alive.
It's a pity that you weren't able to bid farewell to the people outside because this place is going to be
your burial ground,"
Warner said slowly with a grim smile on his face.
"I've heard that line more than a thousand times. Joke's on you because every single one who told me
that ended up being the one dead under my feet,"
Austin retorted in an indifferent tone.
"Don't talk so big, you impudent brat!
Who the hell do you think you are?
You have the audacity to brag like this when you're just a mere genuine premium-grade divine god?!"
Warner roared furiously.
"Well, why don't we try it then? I'll just have to warn you. I always keep my word,"
Austin answered back, his tone calm yet deadly serious.
"I've had enough of this bullshit!
I'll kill you right now!"
Warner exclaimed. He was totally agitated at how Austin talked down on him.
Then, he finally made a move, unleashing his menacing aura.
Swoosh!
In an instant, a huge black sword radiance slashed out from his body.
Countless chaotic runes were engraved on it, crushing the void and creating cracks on every surface of
the space barrier.
As the black sword radiance slashed out, the space and time within the vicinity were distorted by his
malicious aura.
As a result, the laws of space and time were completely out of balance. Dense space and time vortices
emerged here and there, transforming the whole area into a big mess.
"I'll send you to hell, brat!
Pay the price of your arrogance!
You dared to boast nonstop without even having the strength to match your words!"
As Warner roared, he controlled the black sword radiance and directed it to crush Austin in one strike.
At the same time, Austin also recognized that the black sword radiance contained a lot of great cosmos
force, which emitted an extremely perilous aura.
