'It seems that some people have indeed attacked the road of reincarnation.
Moreover, they were most likely exceedingly terrible enemies.
They couldn't have caused a god of chaos's death otherwise!
Could it be that the fighting scene I saw just now was the image left by this god of chaos himself?
Is that what happened back then?'
Austin recalled the battle between the two groups of gods of chaos he had just seen, and he was lost in
his thoughts for a moment.
'It must have happened a really long time ago.
But what is the road of reincarnation's condition nowadays?
Is it still a wreck, has it been rebuilt, or has it disappeared into nothing?'
Confusion and questions filled his head.
Austin had regarded himself as the successor of the reincarnation race, so naturally, he was quite
concerned about this problem.
'I think the road of reincarnation should still exist.
If not, then no creature could be reincarnated, and the order of the world would have long collapsed.
On the contrary, everything is still working in its natural order until now, which means the road of
reincarnation is highly likely to be there still!'
Austin was overjoyed at this thought.
'If the road of reincarnation is still there, then the reincarnation race must still be existing somewhere.
If possible, I want to find them!' Austin decided firmly.
"Sir, I am a successor of the reincarnation race.
Since you have left the second pagoda of reincarnation, I will refine it.
And from now on, I will protect the road of reincarnation!"
Austin declared loudly, putting his heart in his words.
After he said these, he went straight towards the black pagoda.
But when he was about to get close to it, something unexpected suddenly happened.
A black creature suddenly rushed out of the pagoda!
Austin could not identify what kind of creature it was, but it seemed capable of speech.
It said to him in a hoarse, low voice,
"No one is allowed to get close to the pagoda of reincarnation!"
Then, the black creature released its aura, which increased little by little until it was as strong as a
hurricane.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, a black spear materialized in its hand.
And it pounced on Austin with the fierceness of a savage, predatory beast.
'Well, this must be one of those reincarnation slaves. I'd like to see how powerful this slave is!'
Austin excitedly thought as fighting spirit welled up within him. He didn't waste any time and sent a
punch flying forward, facing the black creature head-on.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As Austin's punch dashed forward fiercely, the space and time in front of his clenched fist were
compressed sharply by its terrible power.
Terrible energy explosions continued wherever the punch passed.
Meanwhile, energy ripples surrounded the black spear in the black creature's hand, enveloping it in an
inky blanket.
Bang!
The black spear collided with Austin's fist.
The resulting impact between the spear and fist pushed the black creature back, and it jumped back
rapidly, going with the impact's flow.
'Seriously?'
Austin could not believe his eyes.
It was common knowledge now that if an ordinary governing god dared to fight against Austin head-on,
he would undoubtedly explode on the spot.
Even if his enemies were in their best condition, the best that could happen to them was losing their
limbs. At least then, they would survive. The worst, of course, was that they died.
However, the black creature in front of him was only forced to fly back a few steps.
It suffered no damage!
How could Austin not be shocked by such a result?
In other words, if the creature in front of him went to the Sea of Chaos, the governing gods there would
be no match for it at all.
"Go to hell!"
After being knocked back, the slave immediately counterattacked, rushing forward with the long spear
in its hand.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
It kept slashing, stabbing, and jabbing its spear at Austin tireless. The tip of the spear was full of sharp
light, which was incomparable to anything that Austin had seen before.
Each strike could easily pierce through space and time at the speed of light.
"Ha-ha, I must admit that you're awesome.
But I still have the confidence to defeat you!"
Instead of being discouraged, Austin's will to fight was stimulated after he saw the black creature's
strength. He rushed forward with a bright grin, chuckling to himself.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Austin beat the slave back over and over again, and it was thrown away a few steps back each time.
'Well, sure enough, this creature's every move contains powerful energy from the law of reincarnation.
Moreover, all its moves are embedded with brilliant secret reincarnation skills.
Even I feel inferior to it in this respect.'
With each attack, Austin was becoming more and more surprised and impressed.
He found that the law of reincarnation the black creature mastered was only slightly weaker than his!
And that was very terrifying.
After all, everybody knew that Austin's current attainment in the law of reincarnation had reached a
very brilliant level.
In fact, he was much stronger than Humphrey in this field.
Austin and the creature exchanged dozens of strikes until, finally, he became familiar with how it
fought.
Bang!
He threw a quick jab, which sent the black creature flying backward. It hit the pagoda with a loud bang.
Despite the strong impact, the black pagoda didn't even budge. It was so tough and sturdy that it
merely shook of the destructive force.
"Kill! Kill!"
Suddenly, a dozen more black figures rushed out of the pagoda and stabbed at him with their black
spears.
"Well, it seems that I can't enter the pagoda without defeating these guys."
Austin smiled bitterly.
He glared at the black creatures, sighed, and continued to fight.
And so the battle waged on.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
These creatures didn't utter a single word. If the first one hadn't spoken to Austin, he would have
thought that they couldn't talk.
The black creatures held their long spears firmly and surrounded Austin, constantly jabbing and slicing
him.
In response, Austin drew out his long sword and blocked their attacks, but the creatures kept getting
up!
'The bodies of these slaves are too tough! Why won't they just die?!'
Austin was a little surprised to find that even he couldn't break their bodies, which proved that their
bodies were hard as steel.
It was hard work, but he had completely defeated them after half a day.
"Kill!"
However, to Austin's disappointment and surprise, more and more creatures like this rushed out of the
black pagoda.
This time, there were twenty of them.
'This is just incredible! It seems that these slaves are just endless.'
The bitter smile spread on his face once again.
"Maybe, this is a test.
If one wants to get his hands on the pagoda, he might have to defeat these slaves,"
Austin remarked to himself.
His words boosted his determination, so he went forward and fought with them with renewed strength.
This fight lasted for more than half a day.
Finally, he had defeated all the twenty reincarnation slaves.
However, this was not the end of it all.
Another thirty reincarnation slaves rushed out and headed for Austin once again.
A whole day passed, and he finally defeated all thirty slaves.
He waited with bated breath as he stared tiredly at the pagoda, waiting if it would spit out more black
creatures at him.
To his surprise, no more reincarnation slaves came out.
"Great!"
Overjoyed, Austin walked towards the pagoda with a bounce in his steps.
He discovered that he could only enter the first floor of the pagoda.
Those reincarnation slaves who rushed out and fought with him just now had all come out from the first
floor too.
'I see. It turns out that if I want to enter a certain floor of the pagoda, I have to defeat all the
reincarnation slaves on that certain floor.'
Austin was suddenly enlightened.
This time, when he stepped into the first floor of the pagoda, no slave appeared to stop him.
"Oh?"
His face lit up when he noticed something amazing.
The entire first-floor wall had countless runes engraved on it.
And they were all related to the law of reincarnation and the secret reincarnation skills.
"This is the inheritance left behind by that god of chaos!
This is amazing!"
He could not help but shout for joy. Then, he immediately sat cross-legged and began to meditate and
cultivate.
