After studying it for a long time, Austin still had no idea what to do with the black mountain. It was
slowly annoying him. He really wanted to find out everything about it.
"This mountain is incredibly tough. I can't even scratch or crack it just a little bit. I wonder why,"
Austin exclaimed in frustration.
With Austin's current strength, even an entire universe could be smashed into pieces with just a single
blow from him.
It wouldn't be even difficult for him to smash more than a dozen universes with only his palm.
Austin had been hitting the black mountain in front of him for quite some time now, but he didn't even
knock down any mud or stone.
It was extremely hard!
'I guess the underworld has an extraordinary background.
It is indeed a sect with an exceptionally long history and a profound foundation,'
Austin suddenly thought to himself.
It seemed that every super sect in the Sea of Chaos used to be immensely powerful.
Although the overall strength of the underworld now was not so impressive,
with the black mountain alone, he could tell that the underground was more complicated than it
seemed.
"Mr. Lin, please stop smashing it. The sacred mountain of our underworld is awfully hard to break,"
one of the underworld's governing gods suddenly stepped forward and said.
He also interestingly changed his way of addressing Austin.
He did not call him Austin anymore. He called him Mr. Lin instead!
"Mr. Lin, it was solely our fault. We understand that now.
We shouldn't have offended you in the first place. We are truly sorry.
We are willing to do anything for you to be satisfied enough to forgive us.
I wonder what we should do so you can let us finally go, Mr. Lin,"
another governing god of the underworld stepped forward and said.
At this moment, all the governing gods of the underworld all became very respectful to Austin and even
cautious.
Just now, when Austin was carefully studying the black mountain, the terrifying energy he released
completely frightened them all.
Although he could do nothing to the black mountain,
even though he had used all kinds of skills to punch it and kick it,
the energy fluctuation released from each of his move was still real and intense.
Just now, the nine governing gods all stood aside and felt the overwhelming energy released by
Austin's attack.
Their hearts pounded with fear at that. They were all terrified of Austin now.
They assumed that if Austin's attacks landed on them, they would be smashed into pieces with just a
single punch!
So, after Austin finished studying the black mountain, they totally changed their attitude and showed
him great respect. They didn't even dare to take a deep breath in front of him.
And their address for Austin had also completely changed. They called him Mr. Lin now!
"Oh? Is that so?
Are you really willing to do anything as your compensation? You're really that sorry?"
Austin couldn't help but playfully smile at their desperation.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With that question, the governing gods suddenly knelt on one knee.
"As long as you let us go, we are willing to do anything!"
the nine governing gods nervously said in unison.
"Ah, you do change your attitude so quickly."
Austin couldn't help but laugh at them.
After all, he was not the kind of person who easily yielded and feared brute force.
The tougher the opponent was, the more he didn't want to give in. He would instead be more
determined to fight until the end.
However, it was difficult for him to hurt someone who was weak or someone who desperately knelt to
beg for forgiveness and peace.
After all, there was no animosity between him and the underground that would lead him into destroying
the entire sect.
"Well, let me see..."
It was hard for Austin to decide what to do with the underworld in that moment.
"I'll think about that later. I want to stay here for a while first. You'd better not disturb me."
Austin finally decided to put aside the issue of the underworld first, so he could continue to study the
black mountain in front of him.
He wanted to thoroughly examine it since he felt that the black mountain seemed to have many
secrets.
Apart from the strong aura of death, there were also some laws of reincarnation hidden within the
mountain!
He even felt that the black mountain might have some mysterious connection with the reincarnation
race.
Of course, it was all just a feeling!
In the past few hundred years, Austin had been working extremely hard to comprehend and cultivate
his mind power.
With that, a kind of vague omnipotent skill, called the sixth sense, was born!
The sixth sense was something incredibly mysterious.
Even an ordinary creature could suddenly develop a sixth sense. It could happen at any given time,
place, or situation.
However, the sixth sense of an ordinary creature was unstable and fleeting. Besides that, it was not
necessarily accurate most of the time.
But Austin's sixth sense was totally different.
It was stable, lasting, and accurate.
So, Austin completely believed in his intuition.
So, he was totally sure that the black mountain must have something to do with the reincarnation race.
"I must study it carefully now."
Austin had already regarded himself as the successor of the reincarnation race. Now that he had
encountered something related to it, how could he possibly let it go?
He wouldn't stop until all the truth was unraveled.
"What? Did we hear it correctly?
Mr. Lin, you still want to stay here and study the sacred mountain of our underworld?"
The nine governing gods were surprised at this. They didn't expect that that was Austin's request.
"Yes, you heard that right.
What? Do you have any issues with that?"
His eyes violently flashed at them.
"Since you want to study it, how can we even stop you?
Please take all the time that you need. We won't bother you anymore."
The governing gods didn't dare to object to his decision.
"Well, you can go back to your coffins now.
If you don't disturb me, I won't bother you either."
Austin nodded at them in dismissal.
"Alright, we will take our leave now."
The nine governing gods were overjoyed to hear Austin's words. They knew what his gesture really
meant. He had let the underworld go.
With that, they immediately brought their people back to their coffins.
Then, Austin sat cross-legged in front of the black mountain and finally get down to the business.
He released his spiritual sense to try to completely perceive the black mountain.
In a blink of an eye, his powerful spiritual sense wrapped the whole black mountain. Then, he began to
perceive and study it inch by inch.
Besides the rich law of death, the black mountain also released some laws of reincarnation from time to
time.
Then, he also tried to use his spiritual sense to explore the inside of the mountain.
But he had no idea what material this black mountain was made of. It was astonishingly solid. Even his
spiritual sense struggled to penetrate it.
"I'll just take my time. After all, I'm not in a hurry.
I don't believe that I'm not able to see through you!"
Austin was completely determined, and he swore to himself that he would figure everything out about
the black mountain.
So, in the following days, Austin still sat cross-legged in front of the black mountain, not moving even a
single inch.
With that, time slowly passed.
One day, two days, three days had passed...
One year, two years, three years had passed...
Then, five years later.
"Eh? What is this?
It seems that there is something extremely unusual within the black mountain!
I even faintly heard a calling.
The calling must have something to do with the reincarnation race!"
Five years after studying the black mountain, Austin's heart finally skipped a beat.
