"All right. That sounds good."
Austin quickly agreed.
Currently, he wanted to make the Ethereal World his main headquarters in the Sword Cosmos.
Right after, he entered the Chaotic Abyss—the core area of the eye of the cosmos.
In the entire Sword Cosmos, this place was the most significant one.
All the great cosmos forces in the Sword Cosmos were generated here before spreading out to every
corner of the cosmos.
Deep within the unfathomable abyss, a massive amount of great cosmos force surged continuously. It
swirled and rampaged like violent torrents.
Even martial arts masters as strong as governing gods would tremble in fear and astonishment when
they witnessed it.
However, that wasn't the case for Austin. He didn't feel bothered at all even after setting foot in this
terrifying space. After all, he had already deciphered the secret of the great cosmos force and had
cultivated it for his own perusal. Thus, right now, the great cosmos force had given him the ability to
protect himself in the Chaotic Abyss.
In fact, Austin felt extremely comfortable and peaceful while he was inside the abyss. Ironically, it was
as if he experienced freedom in this place.
"All right! I will try my best to absorb and refine the great cosmos force as much as possible!"
Austin muttered to himself with such excitement.
In the most recent battle, Austin defeated more than fifty governing gods on his own.
However, he understood that he was only able to do so because of the great cosmos force.
Because he had borrowed a large amount of great cosmos force from the eye of the cosmos, he was
able to utilize it and temporarily merge it with his own power.
But he deemed that it still wasn't enough.
Currently, Austin had a small amount of great cosmos force in his body, only accounting for a tenth of
his total energy. He wanted more!
Inside the Chaotic Abyss, Austin immediately sat with his legs crossed and began to cultivate.
Swoosh!
An energy-filled vortex appeared in Austin's body and slowly rotated with great force.
The surging great cosmos force in the surroundings was soon attracted by the energy vortex and
started to gush towards Austin.
During this process, time seemed to pass rapidly.
In fact, an entire year lapsed without being noticed.
At the same time, during this past year,
Austin's enemies didn't dare to make any move. They cooped up in their lair and had seldom shown
their faces in public.
On the other hand, the Curry Sword Sect also took the opportunity to rebuild all of the strongholds that
had been destroyed by their opponents.
Moreover, they also built new ones to strengthen their status in the cosmos.
All of the strongholds of the Curry Sword Sect were built in the form of a city.
Each and every one of them was called the Curry Sword City.
While Austin was away, Warner and Emmet were tasked to oversee Austin's divine god slaves. They
sent a large number of divine gods to construct the Curry Sword Cities in every world in the Sword
Cosmos.
Alongside this, the Curry Sword Sect announced to the whole Sword Cosmos that it was inviting
interested talented young men to join the sect and become its disciples.
There would be an examination, and everyone who successfully passed this could become a member
of the Curry Sword Sect. Rewards and favorable conditions would be given to them in light of their
performances.
At this point, there was no denying that the Curry Sword Sect was becoming an extremely high-profile
organization in the Sword Cosmos.
However, to everyone's surprise, the four major forces hadn't made a move even once against the
activities of the Curry Sword Sect.
They had completely turned a blind eye on the Curry Sword Sect and let them do what they wanted.
Ironically, the weaker forces and sects were the ones who entered into conflicts with the Curry Sword
Sect from time to time.
In the face of the sects and forces that dared to provoke the Curry Sword Sect, Warner and Emmet
treated them ruthlessly. They wasted no time and sent an army to the headquarters of these sects and
forces to deal with them at once. They burned their headquarters to the ground and slaughtered their
people to serve as a warning to others who would try to defy them.
Currently, it was known to all that Austin had more than ten thousand divine god slaves at his disposal.
Since Austin was absent from the front lines right now, all of his slaves were under the direct command
of Warner and Emmet.
If ever anyone dared to make a move in Austin's absence, his divine god slaves wouldn't hesitate to go
all-out and make them taste miserable suffering.
Before this astounding force, the other sects with weaker forces had no way to resist at all. Only foolish
ones would still dare to push their luck against the Curry Sword Sect.
Just the sheer number of Austin's divine god slaves was already overwhelming, and all of them were
experienced warriors who had undergone countless battles in their lives.
Moreover, even if there were sects that had more members, this army would not falter. After all, their
combined strength was powerful enough to destroy most of the sects in the Sword Cosmos.
As they established their authority and superiority, the Curry Sword Sect had gradually suppressed all
the people who were trying to oppose them.
Consequently, the Curry Sword Sect developed and prospered much faster.
In just a year, it had become a super force that was widely recognized in the Sword Cosmos.
At this point, they would catch up with the four major forces and might even surpass them.
Everyone had a feeling that the Curry Sword Sect just needed a little more time before they could clash
head-on with the four major forces. After the large-scale battle that had just happened, the reputation
and status of the four major forces undoubtedly declined.
Before the Curry Sword Sect came into the picture, everything in the Sword Cosmos was solely
decided by the four major forces.
After all, they were deemed as the rulers of the Sword Cosmos after they had successfully overthrown
Sword Son Curry.
They reigned in the entire cosmos and no one dared to disobey them.
However, that was a thing of the past. Everything had suddenly changed.
The Curry Sword Sect, led by Austin, didn't pay attention or was threatened by the four major forces at
all.
In fact, all the residents of the Curry Sword Cities despised all the members of the four major forces.
Not only would they ignore the orders issued by the four major forces, but also violate them on
purpose.
The four major forces already had their fun in the Sword Cosmos for a long time.
They had established their strongholds in almost every corner of the Sword Cosmos.
They controlled the entire cosmos through these strongholds that were scattered everywhere.
But now, the Curry Sword Sect had also become so powerful and influential that they had also done the
same.
Thus, it wasn't an exaggeration if the people of the Sword Cosmos felt that the Curry Sword Sect was
now almost at the same level as the four major forces.
"Isn't that strange? The Curry Sword Sect has been developing at a rapid rate, but all the four major
forces have kept silent all this time."
"The goal of the Curry Sword Sect is so obvious. It aims to catch up and even surpass the four major
forces.
So, what are the four major forces doing?"
"Well, we also don't know what they're doing inside their territories. Maybe they just don't think that it's
the right time to make a move.
They must be waiting for the appropriate moment. I'm sure they wouldn't let the Curry Sword Sect have
its way."
"But it's not an easy task to go against the Curry Sword Sect!
Don't forget that right now, even Warner and Emmet of the Ethereal World are already on Austin's side.
They even became reclusive elders of the Curry Sword Sect!"
During this time of temporary peace, countless creatures talked about the situation in the Sword
Cosmos and what they thought would happen in the future.
Time fled quickly as the momentary peace in the Sword Cosmos was extended.
Another year had passed and everything seemed to be the same.
The Curry Sword Sect still grew stronger both in size and power.
At present, the Curry Sword City could already be seen in every part of the Sword Cosmos.
Every Curry Sword City became prosperous as it attracted a lot of people to dwell in it.
At the same time, the people of the Curry Sword Sect enjoyed a high status in the entire Sword
Cosmos.
If ever they would meet anyone from the four major forces lurking around their territories, a fight would
immediately break out. They wanted to make sure that everyone would see that no one could openly
defy them.
Thus, every now and then, the people of the Curry Sword Sect and the four major forces would be
caught up in a battle and would deliberately make trouble with each other.
Due to their long reign in the Sword Cosmos, the people of the four major forces had always been
arrogant. It was their habit to boss anyone around and display an air of superiority around them.
But now, they found a sect that wouldn't yield to them no matter what.
Because of the mutual hatred between these two sides, the Sword Cosmos was filled with commotion
here and there.
Gradually, the conflicts between them became the norm in the cosmos.
Meanwhile, many young creatures were continuously compelled to join the Curry Sword Sect.
Of course, this was because the Curry Sword Sect was on a constant rise.
On the other hand, the four major forces seemed to experience a bottleneck.
The disciples within the Curry Sword Sect were always treated fairly. According to their
accomplishments in the examination, they would be rewarded with excellent cultivation resources and
exceptional training for their development.
In fact, the cultivation resources that each disciple acquired would be tremendous enough to make any
outsider envious. This was the main reason why many young creatures thrived to be a member of the
Curry Sword Sect.
It was a direct order from Austin to be generous to every disciple of the Curry Sword Sect who had
great potentials.
As this news spread to every corner of the cosmos, more and more young talented individuals decided
to join the sect.
At this time, every new member of the Curry Sword Sect felt very proud as they started to enjoy a high
status in the Sword Cosmos.
This was an unimaginable scene that no one expected.
Before the sudden rise of the Curry Sword Sect, all the young talents only yearned to be a member of
either of the four major forces.
It had become their dream to join the four major forces and become a high-ranking warrior.
However, the Curry Sword Sect had offered them a more inviting choice.
All in all, the Curry Sword Sect had begun to make trouble for the four major forces in all fields.
Thus, the competition between the two sides became more intense.
In reality, this was exactly what Austin was aiming for.
Before he started cultivating in seclusion, Austin had firmly ordered Warner and Emmet to compete
with the four major forces for the ruling power of the Sword Cosmos.
