The supreme grandmaster of the Flying Immortal Sword Sect was sincerely begging for peace, so
Austin was forced to keep his killing intent under control.
Although he had planned to slaughter them all, it was not his style to do so to a man begging and
submitting.
He was not bloodthirsty by nature.
He always followed his heart and trusted his gut when he acted. Thus, he decided to leave the
headquarters of the Flying Immortal Sword Sect, feeling he had to do no more here.
"He's left! Austin has left!"
"It worked! The supreme grandmaster even acted so subservient to garner his mercy and plead for
peace!"
The entire Sword Cosmos was in an uproar over what they had witnessed.
Countless creatures had seen Austin break into the Flying Immortal Sword Sect's headquarters all on
his own, forcing the supreme grandmaster to show himself.
What's more, he'd even given in to Austin and begged for mercy. He declared, without much
persuasion, that their sect would shut their doors and stay within their lairs from now on.
This now meant the Flying Immortal Sword Sect, one of the four major forces in the Sword Cosmos,
would be out of sight and out of the way, living in their own seclusion.
A major force was basically saying their goodbye to the rest of the universe!
"This is a truly momentous occasion!"
"He's still so young. He's destined to be a legend!"
All the creatures in the Sword Cosmos spoke among themselves about Austin.
They discovered just how much he had been surprising them and turning what they knew of their lives
upside down lately.
Meanwhile,
the governing gods of the Sword Cosmos remained dead silent for a long time, unable to bring
themselves to utter a single word.
They could not hide their frustration and annoyance for this wretch bullying their forces and allies.
If they could, they would have killed him already.
But it was far beyond what they were capable of with their strength. This only heightened their
frustrations.
He had defeated more than fifty governing gods, as well as a powerful ancient array, with ease.
They cowered in their secret hiding places, keeping a close eye on Austin's every move.
They witnessed the young man's great progress with their own eyes, seeing how he had risen so
dramatically in the Sword Cosmos.
And now, he was going to rule it all!
His name, Austin, had shaken the whole cosmos, and it was known to every single creature, both
ordinary as well as powerful masters.
He had now left the Flying Immortal Sword Sect and was not actually continuing his journey just yet.
Instead, he waltzed through different worlds across the cosmos.
He had at one time been targeted by more than fifty governing gods,
but now, they were all hiding in their homes, not daring to show their faces to him.
It had not been long since they had joined hands to take his life,
but they had failed in their mission and ran like cowards.
The tables had turned, and now they were afraid of him targeting them.
Countless eyes were fixed on Austin.
"What will he do next, I wonder?"
Every creature was thinking the same thing.
"Do you think he'll go on to attack the other three major forces?"
"He'll definitely keep this momentum up and conquer the entire Sword Cosmos!"
The onlookers were discussing what they thought his next move would be, each with their own theories
and hopes.
They felt they knew what was coming because just such a thing had already happened. Austin had
broken into the headquarters of the four major forces and forced all of them into hiding in their sacred
altars or ancestral lands.
"Is Austin on his way?"
The remaining three major forces had gathered all the masters together, their nerves rattled and frayed
from fear.
Time passed slowly
as the whole Sword Cosmos fell into an eerie silence.
Austin walked through the void, hands behind his back, one slow step at a time.
Everyone watched him at this moment, wondering where he was going and what he would do.
He had overtaken everyone's lives; he'd become the complete focus of the entire cosmos.
Every single creature was watching!
Finally, his intentions were revealed.
"Look!
Austin is heading for the headquarters of the Xi'men Clan!"
a creature suddenly screamed, excited to be the first to notice.
The Sword Cosmos erupted once more.
"It seems he really does plan to deal with the remaining three major forces, all in one go! He doesn't
even need to rest!"
"He doesn't want to put it off any longer than he has to. He wants to preside over the entire Sword
Cosmos!"
The onlookers were all immersed in the legend being born in front of them, all stunned and incredulous.
Austin arrived at the Xi'men Clan's headquarters,
to heated discussions among those within.
"Austin, what is it you want?"
snarled an angry voice from the headquarters.
"I want you to submit to me,"
Austin said flatly but confidently with a domineering aura. He would take no nonsense; that was clear.
He spoke like a supreme emperor talking to his ministers, bidding them to carry out his will.
"There's no way we'll be doing that!
Our Xi'men Clan has a long history and deep roots right here and in this cosmos.
How dare a young brat like yourself even ask us to submit to you?"
growled another voice at Austin.
"Do not speak to me of your glorious history.
All that matters right now, is strength,"
Austin replied with contempt.
"You..."
The man in the headquarters was too furious to manage another word.
"All that matters right now, is strength!
How intimidating! He's got such power!
Rightly so, he alone was enough to defeat the four major forces.
Mentioning their past is futile!"
exclaimed someone in the audience.
"Austin, I'm afraid it's impossible for our clan to submit to you!"
said another voice from their headquarters.
"In that case, there is nothing else to say.
I will have to force you to surrender, and beat you into it if I have to.
Or, I will just destroy the Xi'men Clan."
Austin sneered and began walking towards the headquarters in front of him.
Destroy the Xi'men Clan?
His words shocked countless creatures in the Sword Cosmos, sending shivers through them all.
As one of the four major forces, the Xi'men Clan was an undoubtedly powerful clan in the Sword
Cosmos.
Now they were being threatened with destruction.
"He's not kidding. He has the strength to pull it off,"
someone whispered among the crowd.
"You're too arrogant, Austin!"
"Don't come spewing your rubbish here, you little bastard!"
All manner of shouts and insults came from inside the headquarters of the Xi'men Clan.
But Austin said nothing back. A murderous look overtook him as he marched on ahead.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Xi'men Clan began their attacks swiftly and suddenly, many huge arrays emerging one after the
other.
All included an abnormal amount of divine laws with functions of defense, attack, isolation,
concealment and others.
So many arrays shining at once was capable of shattering the heaven and earth.
"Ha-ha! You're trying to block my way with such insignificant arrays? Pitiful!"
Austin scoffed with derision and prepared to launch his own strike back.
Magnificent great cosmos force burst from his body and applied itself to his fists.
The divine arrays before him shook violently, unable to withstand his incredible attack.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The divine arrays were destroyed one after the other, booming explosions that made it sound as if
heaven itself was about to fall apart.
All it took was a mere moment for Austin to break into the headquarters of the Xi'men Clan.
This was no small world and certainly no small feat!
"I'll give you one last chance to surrender to me,"
Austin said with an icy viciousness, hovering in the starry sky above the
world.
