At this moment, the chaotic sky-devouring beast, who was standing beside Austin, suddenly made his
move.
He swiftly took a step forward, creating a gust of terrifying energy that burst out in an instant and
spread in all directions.
The surrounding creatures immediately felt strong and suffocating pressure. It was like they were
forced to carry countless mountains on their shoulders.
Some of the weaker creatures were even pressed to the ground, unable to move even an inch.
"Humph! I'm going to devour all of you!"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast roared in fury.
Immediately after, his mouth enlarged as if it had become a vicious black hole. Then, everything in the
surroundings, including the creatures, were swallowed down in one gulp.
In just a matter of seconds, only the old man was left standing there, and all he could do was stand still
while looking at the chaotic sky-devouring beast with a horrified expression on his face.
Then, something came into his mind as he recognized the devastating power of the beast. "You! You
are the legendary beast? The chaotic sky-devouring beast?!" The old man couldn't help but ask in a
trembling voice.
His eyes were fixed on the image of the beast and it seemed that he had already lost his spirit.
It was known to all that the chaotic sky-devouring beast race comprised of fierce and powerful
legendary beasts. It was actually rare to encounter them, thus the old man hadn't expected that he
would confront one today.
"So, now that you know who I am, I suggest you get out of here before you regret it!"
the chaotic sky-devouring beast exclaimed.
"Sir, these bitches are our Flying Immortal Palace's enemies. I don't want to offend you, but I'm just
simply following orders. I have to catch them and take them back. You don't need to involve yourself in
this matter."
The old man began to speak respectfully the moment he knew who he was talking to.
"Humph! I will decide on matters that I will involve myself. Unfortunately for you, this is one of those.
Now, if you're smart enough, just hurry up and leave, or you won't be able to do that later," the chaotic
sky-devouring beast said flatly.
"I understand. Such being the case, I don't have any other choice but to fight you. I do hope to learn
something from your brilliant skills."
The old man took a deep breath as he made up his mind.
"Well, then, such being the case, you're already doomed!" the chaotic sky-devouring beast sneered.
With this, he opened his huge mouth again and rushed towards the old man in an attempt to swallow
him whole. At the same time, a mighty suction force was activated, gradually pulling the old man into
his mouth.
Seeing this, the old man was scared out of his wits. He had thought that with his current strength, he
could somehow stand his ground against the chaotic sky-devouring beast even if it was very hard to
do.
However, that was a huge mistake on his part. The moment the beast started to launch his attack, the
old man clearly felt that he had no way to get out of this predicament. He hadn't expected that he would
be this powerless in front of the legendary beast's prowess.
As he faced the rapidly approaching huge mouth of the chaotic sky-devouring beast, he found that he
didn't have the ability to resist it at all.
Hence, eventually, his body was pulled over by the strong suction force into the mouth of the savage
beast.
He desperately struggled with all his might, but it was utterly useless.
"Sir! Please forgive my stubbornness. I'll leave right away. Just spare my life!"
It wasn't until this point that the old man realized the difference in their power and how dreadful the
legendary beast could be.
"Ha! Didn't I already warn you beforehand? It's too late for you now. There are no more second
chances!" the chaotic sky-devouring beast said mercilessly.
Then, he opened his huge mouth and devoured the old man in one gulp.
The second the woman with purple hair saw that all their pursuers were slaughtered in one go, she
wasn't able to hide her joy and relief. She immediately bowed to Austin, the chaotic sky-devouring
beast, and Armstrong for saving them.
"I don't know how to thank you. We owe you our lives. I will never forget your goodness!"
After saying that, she bowed again and intended to leave with the other women.
"Wait!"
Austin suddenly called out.
Hearing this, the purple-haired woman immediately stopped in her tracks and looked back at Austin.
"Yes, sir. What can I do for you?"
the woman asked politely.
"I heard them say that you're from the Reincarnation Palace.
Is that right?" Austin asked.
"That's correct, sir. All of us are from the Reincarnation Palace. We are constantly running for our lives
these past few days since the Flying Immortal Palace started attacking us. But we didn't expect that
even though we fled into the Absolute Space Sea, those people would still chase after us.
Fortunately, we met the three of you along the way. Otherwise, we must have been killed already," the
woman answered.
"I see. Can you tell me more about the Reincarnation Palace?"
Austin queried.
"Oh? Are you interested, sir?
What do you want to know about the Reincarnation Palace?" the woman asked.
"Yes, I'm very interested.
Well, I really don't know a thing, so you could start with the general details," Austin said as he thought
for a while.
"All right then. I'll gladly fill you in about the Reincarnation Palace.
The Reincarnation Palace is actually one of the most powerful forces in the Forever Space Sea. Over
the years, we, together with the Flying Immortal Palace and the Hegemony Palace, have ruled the
Forever Space Sea. In other words, the three of us stand as the three major forces that decide
everything within this space sea.
The three major forces had always been in peace and we had established a harmonious relationship
with each other. However, we didn't interfere with each other's internal matters, and each force had its
own territories and subsidiaries.
However, not long ago, the Flying Immortal Palace suddenly launched an attack on our headquarters.
They attacked people as if they had gone insane. It seemed that they had been planning this for a long
time, and they also had a mysterious reinforcement that instantly turned the tide of the battle.
As I said, we had always been in peace with the two other major forces, so we were totally caught off
guard with the raid that they made, and thus we suffered great losses.
Even the headquarters of the Reincarnation Palace was utterly destroyed. Therefore, all of our
members fled in all directions while the Flying Immortal Palace pursued us.
Then, I led a group of people and tried to flee to a safe location. But then, out of other options, we
decided to take the risk and enter the Absolute Space Sea.
However, they were persistent enough to chase after us even out here."
The purple-haired woman heaved a sigh after telling their story.
"Hmm, I see. Although, I also want to hear the details of the Reincarnation Palace's history,"
Austin remarked.
The purple-haired woman had just told him brief information about the Reincarnation Palace and more
on why they were facing their current situation.
However, what Austin wanted was to know the origin of the Reincarnation Palace, because he
suddenly had a hunch that it might be related to the reincarnation race.
"The history of the Reincarnation Palace?"
The woman was quite shocked at Austin's request.
"Sir, the Reincarnation Palace has a very long and profound history. It has been in existence for more
than a hundred thousand years, so I really don't know how to simply explain its origin to you,"
the woman said, a bit confused as to why Austin wanted to know about those details.
"You said that the Flying Immortal Palace had a mysterious force that was helping them, right? Do you
know anything about them?
Were they shrouded in black mist, or did they appear to have black skin all over their bodies?" Austin
asked straightforwardly.
"Yes, sir! That's exactly how they looked like. How did you know about that?
The mysterious reinforcements of the Flying Immortal Palace were all shrouded in billowing black mist.
All their weapons and secret skills contained black runes, and even their attacking energy was pitch-
black.
They were a group of black creatures," the purple-haired woman affirmed.
'Just as I suspected!
If these creatures of darkness targeted the people of the Reincarnation Palace, it must only mean that
the Reincarnation Palace has something to do with the reincarnation race.
It is very likely that at least one of the members of the Reincarnation Palace is actually a successor of
the reincarnation race like me.'
After hearing all that the woman with purple hair had to say, Austin immediately formulated a
conclusion, and it turned out that he was right.
The creatures of darkness were very sensitive when it came to the aura of reincarnation. Once they
found that there was a successor of the reincarnation race in a certain place, they wouldn't waste any
time to sneakily attack that person.
