With a roar that shook the chaotic void, the warships of the alliance started moving again. They
hovered like dark clouds, floating ominously.
This time, no one followed them.
After witnessing
over twenty armies suffer a crushing defeat
and end up being captured, they wouldn't dare to stand up to Austin and his army.
"Austin is still alive!
The alliance is not annihilated!
This means that
things are going to be interesting in the Sea of Chaos again!"
a creature stated, sighing as he watched the warships of the alliance leave.
"Judging from its scale, the alliance can fight against the five super forces.
However, the five super forces still all have governing gods.
Although the alliance is very powerful, it can't defeat the governing gods."
"Yes, the governing gods are truly terrifying.
If the alliance continues to provoke the five super forces, they will regret it."
Many creatures shook their heads and sighed.
Inside the warship, Austin was obviously relaxed. He had just captured over two thousand divine gods
and he was about to
use the Puppet Strings to make them his slaves.
Half a day later, Austin was successful.
He walked to a secret room in the warship where he could be alone.
"I'm so happy with how far the Puppet Strings skill has come."
Austin sat cross-legged on the floor and looked into his Soul Sea.
In his Soul Sea, there were multiple, faint, red silk threads that were continuously extending into the
void and gradually fading until they disappeared.
Each of these puppet strings connected to a slave's spiritual soul on the other end.
With the help of the Puppet Strings, Austin had brought more than twenty thousand divine gods under
his control.
Not many had this ability and Austin was constantly taken aback by it.
'My cultivation in the Puppet Strings is much higher than that of any master of the spiritual race.
But there is one thing I can't figure out.
When I first started to practice it, the spiritual race told me that the more slaves I controlled, the
stronger my spiritual sense would be.
They also said that I could even use the spiritual senses of those slaves at any time.
My spiritual sense is getting stronger, but I still can't use the spiritual senses of my slaves. What's going
on?'
Austin thought to himself.
For a moment, he figured that something was wrong with him.
"I have no idea why this is happening. I guess I could ask someone from the spiritual race,"
Austin murmured to himself.
Then, he concentrated until
a grey figure appeared in front of him.
"Lange, I need you to explain something.
Didn't you say that I could channel the spiritual soul energy of all my slaves through the Puppet Strings
and absorb and refine it into my own spiritual soul energy to improve my spiritual sense force?
Why can't I do it?"
Austin asked, looking at the grey figure in front of him.
This gray shadow was Lange from the spiritual race.
Austin had learned the Puppet Strings from him.
Lange was the first slave from the spiritual race that Austin had subdued;
however, he was too weak for Austin's purposes now.
Austin had almost forgotten him.
"Master, the Puppet Strings skill that is passed down to me in my blood indeed records this.
But I'm too weak.
I don't have the ability to do that.
I don't know why you can't do it either.
I'm useless. Please punish me,"
Lange answered with shame in his eyes.
"If you don't know, that's not your fault,"
Austin placated.
Lange was basically a nobody in the spiritual race.
He practiced the Puppet Strings, but that didn't make him a master of it.
"Raleigh, come out. I think you might know the answer."
Under the control of Austin's mind, another member of the spiritual race appeared.
"Master."
Another man appeared in front of Austin and bowed respectfully.
This man was also from the spiritual race and Austin had subdued him in the Divine Being's World.
He was at the Heaven Immortal Realm.
This was also too weak for Austin.
Raleigh claimed to be a nominal disciple of Hackett.
Hackett was one of the most powerful master in the isolated alien spaces.
Since Raleigh was Hackett's nominal disciple, he should have a higher status in the spiritual race and
be able to answer Austin's inquiry.
"Master, if you cultivate the Puppet Strings and reach a certain level, you can use the spiritual soul
energy of your slaves for yourself.
You can even absorb and refine their spiritual soul energy and turn it into your own.
However, the Puppet Strings is exclusive to the spiritual race.
Many of the advanced techniques will be obtained automatically from the bloodline when one's strength
reaches a certain level.
Master, since you have the spiritual tree and the spiritual dragon, you can practice the Puppet Strings;
however, you don't have the blood of us spiritual race that you need to obtain the advanced
techniques,"
Raleigh replied.
Austin was right. He did know the answer.
"Oh,"
Austin said with a frown.
It seemed that the blood of the spiritual race was the key.
This was something that one had to be born with. He couldn't just find it.
"So I won't be able to learn the advanced usages of the Puppet Strings, right?"
Austin asked, slumping his shoulders.
"Master, don't be disappointed. There is a chance,"
Raleigh said.
"Oh? What is it? Tell me!"
Austin demanded.
"It's very simple.
Go and find the divine gods of our race.
They are the only ones who can automatically get the advanced techniques of the Puppet Strings from
the inherited bloodline.
Master, if you do this, you might be able to reach your goal,"
Raleigh said.
"Okay!
I'll go catch some divine gods from the spiritual race!"
Austin exclaimed. He was about to leave when Raleigh stopped him.
"Master, the advanced techniques of the Puppet Strings are hidden in the depths of the inherited
bloodline of our race. Only when one's strength reaches a certain extent will they show themselves
automatically.
It's complicated, but I think the advanced techniques can be learned,"
Raleigh continued.
Because he was so experienced, Austin trusted him.
"Well, since there is a chance, I must meet the divine gods of your race!"
Austin couldn't contain his smile.
He had subdued many divine gods as slaves. If he could use the spiritual soul energy of these slaves,
he would be unstoppable.
