"In fact, the Sky Sword Sect, Xi'men Clan and Flying Immortal Sword Sect are also hoping to get their
hands on that retched brat.
It's because he has something to do with Master Sword.
If the old guy indeed died,
he would probably leave a lot of treasures behind since he was the best swordsman who ever lived.
Perhaps that brat was looking for those hidden treasures when he entered the Sword Cosmos.
But I know you all know this by now,"
Rollins said with a sneer.
"Yes, you're right!
You don't need to say it for everyone to realize that!
We must find him before he locates the treasures!"
the sect leader of the Long Sword Sect added.
"That's right!"
The senior members of the Long Sword Sect all nodded in agreement.
In short, the main reason why the four major forces of the Sword Cosmos were so hell-bent on catching
Austin was that they could gather all the information he knew about Master Sword.
Especially the treasures left by the master!
At this moment,
a man was heard running from the corridors.
A semi-governing god hurriedly entered the hall.
"Sirs!
The Purple Sword Sect has just sent a message to us!"
the semi-governing god reported loudly.
He then waved his hand and a jade slip flew out.
The slip contained a video recording.
It was sent by a senior member of the Purple Sword Sect.
His message was about a mysterious man who managed to defeat the strong army of the Purple
Sword Sect, not once, but twice! He even had the audacity to charge into their headquarters.
"No way!
That's impossible!
How could a young man defeat the entire Purple Sword Sect all on his own?"
"I would surely remember a young man as powerful as that!
Why can't I recall such a person?"
"Even if there is one from the Sword Cosmos,
How dared he attack the Purple Sword Sect? Everyone knows that they are under the Long Sword
Sect."
Immediately, most of the senior leaders expressed their doubts.
"I think we might know who the man is.
He's the one we just talked about, the successor of Sword Son Curry.
Only a brat like that would have the guts to do such things.
Plus, he has the strength to do it,"
the sect leader of the Long Sword Sect suddenly said.
"That's right!
It must be that brat!"
Rollins shouted in excitement when the fact dawned on him.
"Ha-ha! If that's the case, we don't need to look for him."
"We can definitely catch him this time!"
The other governing gods all burst into a fit of laughter.
"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up!
That brat is rather cunning and tricky.
If we're too late, he may have a chance to escape!"
Rollins cried out.
"Okay.
Let's go right now!"
the sect leader of the Long Sword Sect ordered to his comrades
"By the way, shall we inform the other forces?"
one of the governing gods asked.
"No need to do so.
For the time being, let's keep a low profile.
We'll need an ambush if we wish to arrest and interrogate him. We need him alive in order to extract
every information he has on Master Sword.
Letting the other three forces know would only give away our position,"
the sect leader of the Long Sword Sect said after thinking for a while.
"Good idea. Let's do it!"
the senior leaders praised him and nodded in agreement.
"Let's go!"
With that, a group of masters headed for the Purple Divine Mountain.
Meanwhile,
in the Purple Divine Mountain,
a blinding sword light still illuminated the sky while deafening roars filled the air.
A fierce battle had been going on for almost four hours!
Austin had already been slashed countless times throughout the fight.
There were wounds and scars all over his body.
But this was only because Austin let his defenses down and willingly let the sword light attack him.
Otherwise, these measly streaks of light wouldn't even pose as a threat to him.
During this process, his body was being ripped to shreds for over a dozen times.
However, he would manage to heal just in time for the next wave of attack!
This was repeated for the passing four hours.
Finally,
"I'm exhausted!"
"I can't fight any more!"
"Even worse, I feel that my level of swordsmanship seems to have dropped sharply!"
"This is not good. I could only use less than ten percent of my normal fight power!"
After having their way tearing Austin's body apart for the last four hours, they finally realized something
was wrong.
"Damn it!
My swordsmanship has also weakened a lot!"
Even Winslow and the two superior elders felt the same.
"Something's not right.
It's normal that we would lose some energy
after a four-hour battle,
but our swordsmanship level shouldn't have gone weaker!"
Panic could be seen on Winslow's face.
"The same must have happened to me!
Only about seventy percent of my swordsmanship is left!
It must be that brat who is behind this!"
one of the superior elder said through his gritted teeth.
"I have an absurd feeling. Is it possible that he absorbed our swordsmanship while we were attacking
him?"
another superior elder guessed.
"I have the same feeling.
I can see from his expression and words that he is only using us to improve his swordsmanship!"
said Winslow.
"Sect leader, we can't defeat this brat. Let's stop attacking.
Please inform everyone to retreat!"
one of the superior elder suggested.
"Everyone, attention!
Cease fire! Retreat now!"
Winslow gave the order at once.
This was exactly what the soldiers wanted. The troop of the Purple Sword Sect all turned tail and ran
away desperately.
They feared Austin more than anyone they knew.
Splash!
They immediately retreated into the distance, like a sudden fall of a tide.
"Oh?
You guys don't want to fight anymore?"
Austin said with a sneer.
"All right.
Since you don't want to fight anymore,
let me finish this,"
he added while brushing dirt away from his shoulders.
He licked his lips and stared viciously at the divine gods of the Purple Sword Sect.
"Damn it!
All divine gods run away immediately!
Run as fast as you can!
Otherwise, he'll make you his slave!"
Seeing how Austin's eyes lit up, Winslow turned pale with fright.
He witnessed firsthand how this young cultivator turned hundreds of divine gods into his loyal slaves.
He knew that this brat was now targeting the remaining divine gods.
They were the core power of the Purple Sword Sect. Losing any of them would be a huge loss to the
sect!
