Just like that, Austin released his puppet strings at full force.
Each string was infused with a copious amount of extremely powerful spiritual soul energy.
He was willing to give it his best shot if it meant he could subdue a semi-governing god.
The red silk strings, like sharp arrows, stormed towards Elder Roland's Soul Sea.
In less than a second, the red puppet strings forced their way into his Soul Sea.
"Hey!
What the hell are these?!" Elder Roland yelled out, startled.
He could instantly feel that these red silk strings were utterly strange and dangerous.
"Get—
Get out!" Elder Roland drove his spiritual sense to bombard the invading red silk strings.
At the same time, tens of thousands of high-grade magic treasures appeared around his spiritual soul.
Most of them were chaotic magic treasures.
In addition to these magic treasures,
there were also over a hundred arrays protecting his spiritual soul.
It seemed that he could defend himself very well.
"He protects his spiritual soul so well."
Seeing this, Austin couldn't help but frown in disappointment.
He was almost annoyed that Elder Roland had so many high-level magic treasures. After all, he was
fighting a semi-governing god.
Nonetheless, Austin didn't give up so easily.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Tens of thousands of red silk strings continued to attack Elder Roland.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Crisp sounds deafened the space as the red silk strings stormed the sky and collided with the magic
treasures and protection arrays.
As a result, Elder Roland's Soul Sea got filled with continuous clanging sounds.
"Stop this now, you brat!"
The elder roared at Austin as he impelled his spiritual sense to fight against Austin.
Upon hearing that Elder Roland was getting exasperated, Austin activated more and more puppet
strings to attack the Soul Sea of the furious semi-governing god.
Now, Elder Roland's Soul Sea had turned into a red sea.
However, his spiritual soul was still tightly protected by his tens of thousands of magic treasures and
over a hundred arrays.
Although the puppet strings were undeniably strong, it didn't look like they could get to the spiritual
soul.
Elder Roland, on the other hand, also had trouble driving these numerous red silk strings out of his
Soul Sea.
It would appear that they had reached a stalemate.
"So...
I guess you want to compete with me using magic treasures, huh?" Austin sneered.
He couldn't even keep himself from letting out a chuckle.
When he finished talking, he waved his hand.
Numerous high-level divine weapons and even chaotic magic treasures then flew out.
All of these magic treasures were related to spiritual souls.
Tens of thousands of them floated in the air.
Austin had magic treasures that were no less than Elder Roland's.
In fact, he even had much more.
"Go!"
Austin motioned for his magic treasures to charge at the elder's Soul Sea.
At lightning speed, they attacked Elder Roland's magic treasures.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The magic treasures collided with each other and spurted out astonishing energy.
The terrifying fighting energy whipped around the elder's Soul Sea like a stormy wave.
For any cultivator, the Soul Sea was the most important and vulnerable part of his being. That was why
it was needed to be protected at all costs.
Elder Roland was actually frantic as the fierce battle in his Soul Sea ensued. His face had turned pale
as he experienced severe headaches and he couldn't stop trembling.
"What the hell do you want?
Stop this! You insolent brat!" Elder Roland shouted helplessly.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
However, Austin didn't have the slightest intention of stopping at this point. He unleashed more puppet
strings to bypass the magic treasures that were guarding the elder's spiritual soul.
At this moment, there were only more than a hundred arrays left protecting Elder Roland's spiritual
soul.
These arrays were all made of spiritual soul energy and supposed to be very powerful.
However, Austin's puppet strings were also condensed from pure spiritual soul energy.
On top of that, since he had cultivated this skill to a tremendous level, it was much more complex and
difficult to fight off.
Crash!
Soon enough, due to the persistent attacks of the overwhelmingly dense puppet strings, the arrays
started to shatter one after another.
"No!
Brat, I'm telling you; stop this right now!"
Elder Roland couldn't do anything but just scream in horror.
However, his screams just fell to deaf ears.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Eventually, the puppet strings broke more and more arrays.
Little by little, the densely packed red strings got closer and closer towards the elder's spiritual soul.
Finally, after a long while, the puppet strings had successfully broken through all the arrays that Elder
Roland set up around his spiritual soul.
Now, there was nothing left to hinder the strings from attacking his spiritual soul.
Without wasting any time, the red silk strings rushed towards the elder's spiritual soul and tied it up
rapidly.
"Ahhh..."
Elder Roland let out a shrilling scream as he experienced immense pain.
He perceived that the strings were giving off a very dangerous aura.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
With all his remaining strength, he unleashed streaks of extremely sharp sword light, constantly
slashing at the puppet strings that invaded his Soul Sea.
Even so, in terms of swordsmanship, Austin's skills were certainly not inferior to the elder's.
Thus, the sword light didn't cause much damage to the puppet strings.
Soon after, more and more puppet strings were employed, destroying the defense arrays and twining
around the elder's spiritual soul.
"Stop!
I said stop!
I can still offer to make peace with you.
I won't hold you accountable for everything you've done if you just spare me!"
Elder Roland was already scared out of his wits. He felt so desperate that he wanted to settle it with a
negotiation.
"No.
It's too late for that," Austin said softly with a defiant grin on his face.
After all, this was his greatest chance to subdue and enslave a semi-governing god.
Under the control of Austin's mind, the spiritual tree, the spiritual heart, the spiritual dragon, and the
Chaotic Ice Lotus trembled all at the same time. Together, they simultaneously released a massive
amount of spiritual energy which condensed into a tidal wave of puppet strings that engulfed Elder
Roland's Soul Sea.
Right after, the elder's spiritual soul had been tightly wrapped up. It resembled a red cocoon.
"You fucking brat! Remember this!
You shall die a horrible death!
Damn it! Argh!"
Elder Roland had almost gone insane.
He felt like he was being paralyzed as though he had been tightly wound up in the void.
Meanwhile, in his Soul Sea,
tens of thousands of high-level magic treasures were still attacking each other, bursting out a cosmic
amount of fighting energy.
Since Austin's magic treasures were suppressing the ones possessed by Elder Roland, nothing could
resist the puppet strings anymore. They continued to envelop the elder's spiritual soul until they could
grasp it firmly.
Truth be told, his current situation was almost a helpless cause.
"Damn it! Somebody make it stop!"
The elder, a semi-governing god, felt like his head was about to explode. The pain had gotten so
unbearable that he was on the verge of losing his sanity.
"This is getting ridiculous!
Let's help Elder Roland!
It seems like he can't hold on any longer!"
At this point, the people of the Purple Sword Sect in the distance had finally realized that something
wrong was going on. Elder Roland's battle with Austin should have only been between the two of them,
but seeing that their elder was in a life-threatening condition, his men wouldn't just stand idly.
"Where do you think you're going?
Anyone who dares to approach our master shall be put to death!"
Hundreds of Austin's divine god slaves immediately stepped forward and blocked the approaching
members of the Purple Sword Sect.
"It's time! Let's also help this young hero!"
Garth, together with the senior members of the Lin Clan, also rushed up to prevent the people of the
Purple Sword Sect from going any further.
"We have no other choice!
Elder Roland is in grave danger. Kill anyone who gets in our way!"
The people of the Purple Sword Sect came to their senses and charged
forth.
