He then made his way towards the gates of the ancient city ahead of him.
"We need to do something! We can't let the demon from the Brilliant Kingdom enter our holy city! We must guard it with our lives, with all that we've got!"
"Come on! Man the walls and call for back up. We need every cultivator and able fighter that we can get! Let's fight in the name of our gods!"
The holy knights slightly opened the gates and rushed out stop the oncoming attack.
Each of them emitted golden lights with a sacred token around their necks. Some of them were standing on their flying magic treasures, some were riding beasts, and some were running in the air. They were all coming at Austin.
There were tens of thousands of them.
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Austin said, emotionless.
He used his Omnipotent Bodily Skill as he stretched out his hand towards the hordes of enemies who wanted his blood. His hand then enlarged and emitted golden lights.
With his massive golden hand, he crushed the soldiers close to him in just one swing, their flesh and blood flying in all directions.
With resounding battle cries, a group of people including Yulia, Hogan and the Snow-treading Old Man followed behind Austin, ready to put down the holy knights.
Since Austin took care of most enemies, they could only fight with those who survived his strikes and had significantly weakened.
Those holy knights were all powerful and had rich combat experience. Fighting them was a good opportunity for Yulia and others to exercise the powers that they had acquired.
A few seconds later, Austin sped up.
He released his physical strength, and as he kept moving, the holy knights around
It seems that the cultivators in the Western Kingdom are much more powerful than those in the Brilliant Kingdom, ' Austin remarked inwardly. 'But we'll see about that!'
Without wasting any time, he stretched out his right hand and took the weapon away from the elder. He then grabbed it and tightened his grip, smashing it into powder.
The elder's face changed dramatically. Fearing for his life, he turned around and ran away.
Austin slapped him in the back from the distance, and with a puff, the elder turned into a mist of blood.
Everyone watching in the city was dumbfounded.
'He beat a god's emissary to death with one strike. It was like simply swatting a fly, ' they thought, shaken up.
"Where did you get the nerve to stir up trouble in my place?"
All of a sudden, a deep and emotionless voice rang out in the void. Many people felt the freezing cold and shuddered at the voice.
"It's our god! Praises! Our god is here.
So did our god ever leave? Has he always been in the city with us?" one of the holy knights exclaimed with a lot of thrill.
All the residents in Jerule got excited and cheered.
