"Wrath Fire Sword!"
Utterly exasperated, Elder Roland used his most powerful move once more.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Hundreds of millions of dazzling sword auras were continuously merged and gathered into a huge
streak of burning sword radiance.
With this, a terrifying aura that could seemingly destroy everything surged out from it.
Wherever the sword radiance passed, the space trembled, collapsed, and shattered.
"That's more like it!"
Seeing the vicious attack that Elder Roland had unleashed once again, Austin was extremely elated.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
In an instant, Austin also released the five truths of swordsmanship and transformed them into a long
sword to confront Elder Roland's burning sword radiance.
Clang!
The two forces collided, generating a massive impact.
Huge energy waves spread out and made the entire void shook violently.
At the same time, the void within hundreds of millions of miles was instantly smashed to pieces.
The immense energy was so devastating.
"Absorb!"
Not wasting any time, Austin activated the five truths of swordsmanship and the world of
swordsmanship to absorb the sword aura and sword intent contained in the sword radiance of Elder
Roland.
"Take this!"
On the other hand, Elder Roland mustered all his strength to activate the sword radiance to its fullest
power, trying to slash Austin with it.
A steady flow of sword auras, sword intents, and sword energy were then transmitted to the sword
radiance from the palm of the elder.
"Oh, not bad.
Interesting. Can you do better?
Come on! Attack harder!"
Austin became more thrilled as he saw the amount of energy contained in Elder Roland's attack.
"Go to hell, you bastard!"
Hearing Austin's taunts, the elder became more infuriated. He roared mightily and gave his all in this
attack.
However, no matter how hard he tried, the sword radiance that he let out couldn't increase its power
anymore.
"W-what's going on?
My swordsmanship level is dropping?
The sword aura and sword intent in my move are also decreasing rapidly.
Does it mean that they're being absorbed?!"
Elder Roland's face almost turned pale as he speculated about this.
After a few moments, both the sword aura and sword intent contained in the sword radiance were
completely absorbed.
With a flick of his finger, Austin turned the sword radiance into dust.
"You brat... What kind of demonic skill are you using?"
Elder Roland was in disbelief that he began to get scared.
After all, his famous unique skill, the Wrath Fire Sword, was extremely powerful.
However, the young man in front of him had repeatedly extinguished it.
"Oh please. Just cut the crap and strike a few more times! Or are you saying that this is your limit?"
Austin provoked the elder, obviously wanting him to attack some more.
The sword aura and sword intent of a semi-governing god were, of course, of high quality. It meant that
they should be very essential for Austin's world of swordsmanship.
"You little fuck!
Fine! Let's see how many times you can endure my attack!"
Elder Roland snapped and wielded his sword again.
He couldn't hold back his anger after being repeatedly ridiculed by the young man.
Clang! Clang!
With this, Elder Roland used the Wrath Fire Sword to attack Austin again and again.
However, like what was happening earlier, Austin just absorbed all the sword auras and sword intents
contained in the Wrath Fire Sword every single time.
Even though the result was still the same, Elder Roland kept on attacking. He was so blindsided by his
anger that he couldn't keep his composure anymore.
On the other hand, Austin was just calm and relaxed. He actually enjoyed manipulating the elder to his
advantage.
"Awesome!
I didn't expect him to be this powerful.
Even Roland couldn't do anything to him!"
In the distance, Garth and the senior members of the Lin Clan were watching in astonishment.
In their eyes, Austin's strength was otherworldly and incomprehensible.
They were actually rooting for him. If Austin was able to defeat Roland and drive off the people of the
Purple Sword Sect, the Lin Clan would definitely be saved.
"Master, you're right.
This young man is out of this world.
He's capable of fighting an entire army by himself!
And right now, even Roland couldn't even lay a finger on him.
We have to draw this guy to our side,"
an elder excitedly suggested to Garth.
"You're right.
He will be our greatest asset. We should do everything to convince him in joining us!"
The other senior members of the Lin Clan also agreed.
Meanwhile, while they were still conversing,
Elder Roland had already launched about ten strikes using the Wrath Fire Sword.
"What the hell is going on?
My swordsmanship level has fallen a lot.
I think only about fifty percent of my peak combat power remains!"
Elder Roland screamed in surprise as he recognized this.
He was too absorbed in attacking Austin that he only realized this now.
Fear began creeping beneath his skin. He was afraid that if he continued to fight like this, he didn't
know how low his swordsmanship level could fall.
The degree of swordsmanship he had now was the result of persistent cultivation over the years.
But in just a few moments, he had lost so much of it.
It was very frustrating and vexing.
"What have you done to me? Tell me!
What is this evil skill?!
Why did my swordsmanship level fall this much?"
Elder Roland roared disdainfully.
"Do you really think that I will tell you? You're just wasting your strength screaming at me like that,"
Austin said with a mocking smile.
"Brat, let me tell you this. I'm an elder of the Purple Sword Sect.
You must know that our sect is a subsidiary force of the Long Sword Sect. If you continue to provoke
the Purple Sword Sect, it means that you will also make an enemy of the Long Sword Sect!
So, can you afford to offend them?"
Elder Roland said through gritted teeth, attempting to intimidate Austin.
He realized that he couldn't threaten the young man through his own power and identity anymore, so
he had to mention the Purple Sword Sect and the Long Sword Sect too.
"Ha-ha! Why should I care? The Purple Sword Sect will eventually cease to exist by my hands.
Then, later on, I will also go and subdue the Long Sword Sect.
I'm not afraid of the Long Sword Sect. Actually, they are the ones that need to fear me,"
Austin sneered as he looked condescendingly at the elder.
"What did you say? You boastful bastard!
How dare you belittle the Long Sword Sect?!"
Elder Roland shouted, his voice full of resentment.
"I said what I said.
I don't like the Long Sword Sect, so they're next in my list.
Sooner or later, they will also fall in my hands,"
Austin remarked with a mischievous smile.
"You... You piece of shit! Aren't you afraid of openly declaring such rebellious words?
Just you wait! The Long Sword Sect will definitely hunt you down!"
Hearing Austin's words, Elder Roland was deeply shocked and aggravated by the insolence of the
young man.
'What should I do next? This old man's swordsmanship has already fallen a lot. His fighting power has
also been greatly reduced.
Let's see if I can subdue him with the Puppet Strings.
If everything goes well, he'd be the first semi-governing god that I have enslaved,'
Austin thought carefully.
So far, the genuine premium-grade divine gods were already the strongest members in Austin's army
of slaves.
Although he had desired to enslave a semi-governing god since a while back, he had never been
successful.
Of course, if he could subdue a semi-governing god, it would be very useful for him.
This addition to his army would definitely be huge.
"Well, there's no harm in trying!"
Under the control of Austin's mind, red silk strings surged out from his Soul Sea.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, these red strings rushed towards the elder like deadly serpents.
