Austin then flew off towards the Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea, leading the others ahead.
Much like the Cloudy Sky Space Sea, the Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea was also one of the Time
Chamber Sect's strongholds in the Absolute Space Sea.
It didn't take long for news of what had taken place in the Cloudy Sky Space Sea to travel to the
headquarters of the Time Chamber Sect.
One after the other, the nine leaders received word of what had happened.
The news infuriated them all.
"I want a thorough investigation into this, right now!
Find out who did this!"
All nine leaders issued the same order at the same time. The headquarters of the Time Chamber Sect
wasted no time in sending out a large force to figure out what had happened in the Cloudy Sky Space
Sea.
"Order all our strongholds to strengthen their defenses, effective immediately,"
Solomon added after a moment of contemplation.
"Wizards,
help me figure out who destroyed the Cloudy Sky Space Sea," Bartholomew said.
His first reaction was to call upon the more than ten wizards of the darkness race to assist in deducing
the cause of all this madness.
"As you wish,"
the wizards replied, agreeing without hesitation.
Bartholomew had given them a lot over the years. They had benefited greatly from their relationship
with him.
In fact, they were practically his personal counsellors now, in every way but in title.
At this moment...
It was a long journey, but finally, Austin and the others arrived at the Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea.
"Let's attack right away.
Their strength is similar to what we just faced in the Cloudy Sky Space Sea.
Dealing with them should not be a problem for us,"
Austin said softly, his voice confident and determined.
With the experience they had just gained, Austin already knew what to do here.
They strode on ahead, straight into the Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea.
The first thing they noticed when they walked in was that this space sea was vast and undeniably
beautiful.
Like the Cloudy Sky Space Sea, it was open, and creatures were free to come and go as they pleased.
The Time Chamber Sect had established so many strongholds in order to keep their businesses
running and their wealth growing.
This was why anyone was welcome to enter.
"This space sea is really quite pleasing to the eye."
In the chaotic void of the Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea, two level-eight governing gods flew side by
side. They conversed leisurely as they passed by various cosmos.
"Did you hear that a Time Chamber Sect's stronghold was recently destroyed? It was the Cloudy Sky
Space Sea, if I heard correctly.
When I first heard this, I could not believe my ears.
After all, that space sea was as powerful as our own.
More to it, I heard this happened under the guard of Master Joaquin.
He's one of our Time Chamber Sect's strongest level-nine governing gods. He'd even already had the
opportunity to break through to a god of chaos.
Still, the space sea was destroyed and Master Joaquin appears to have been killed along with it.
It's terrifying to think of,"
one of the governing gods said.
"There is no doubt Master Joaquin is powerful.
But he is not as powerful as Master Ryder, the master of our Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea.
Didn't you hear what Lord Solomon said? Master Ryder will definitely, one day, take the final step and
break through to become a god of chaos.
Master Joaquin cannot be compared to Master Ryder. It's preposterous to do so.
Master Ryder is now the Time Chamber Sect's oldest level-nine governing god, and also the most
powerful.
One could go as far as to say that, with his strength, he could defeat all the governing gods out there.
If not for the gods of chaos, he would be invincible, the ultimate being in existence. There's no question
about that,"
the other governing god replied.
He was in fact one of Ryder's confidants.
Obviously, he would talk him up and be on his side.
"Well, yes.
I suppose you're right,"
the first governing god nodded back.
Of course he did not dare say anything remotely bad about Ryder in front of his close friend.
"But, do you think the Heavenly Cultivation Space Sea is in danger?
The Cloudy Sky Space Sea is very close to us after all.
If the mysterious master who destroyed it suddenly turns his attention on us, we may not be able to
handle him,"
the first governing god asked nervously.
"You may rest assured.
Master Ryder is guarding our space sea.
Unless a god of chaos shows up, we will have no trouble here,"
responded the other governing god.
"That's true,"
the first said, nodding unconvincingly.
"Besides, we've already bolstered our defenses. Even if there are enemies on the way, we'll be able to
take them down,"
he added, seemingly to convince himself more than anyone else.
Just then, more than ten young people appeared in the chaotic void before the two of them.
They stared at the governing gods, sneering murderously.
It was none other than Austin and his companions.
"There's no one in this space sea we can't kill. We're more powerful than them all.
There's no need for us to have to be stealthy,"
Austin announced to his group.
"That's right.
With our strength, we don't need to hide ourselves here. Just kill them all!"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast added, nodding vehemently.
He then marched forward and rushed before the two level-eight governing gods.
"You're a chaotic sky-devouring beast!
What do you want here? What are you going to do?"
the governing gods cried out, shocked and shaken at their core.
"I'm here to kill you of course!"
snarled the chaotic sky-devouring beast devilishly.
He said no more and made his move.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A fierce fight broke out between the chaotic sky-devouring beast and the two governing gods.
The governing gods were seriously powerful.
Unfortunately for them, they were faced with a foe far more powerful.
The beast's fighting power was on par with that of an ordinary level-nine governing god.
It took him only a few moves to restrain the two governing gods and leave them with no way to fight
back.
The explosive sounds of battle soon attracted the attention of others from the Time Chamber Sect in
this space sea.
More and more governing gods used their bodily movement skills, pouring towards the battle.
There were over a hundred governing gods in this space sea as well.
"You guys take care of these people.
I'm going to kill Ryder.
I'll be back to help you once I'm done.
Consider this a bit of training,"
Austin said with a mischievous grin.
"We got this, Austin,"
Jadiel responded.
He then broke out and charged at their newly arrived enemies.
Jadiel's and the chaotic sky-devouring beast's combat effectiveness were almost the same.
The moment he made his move, several level-eight governing gods were knocked down and forced to
retreat.
The Reincarnation Palace's leader, Tanya and Diego rushed forward as well, joining the battle against
the Time Chamber Sect.
Meanwhile, Austin had his spiritual sense fixed on a void in the depths of the Heavenly Cultivation
Space Sea.
In it was a figure, emitting a sharp, intense aura.
Austin knew this had to be the so-called Master Ryder.
