Chapter 4027 I Finally Got What I Want

"Master, it's true. The spiritual tree is the holy treasure of our spiritual race. It can protect all the members of the spiritual race.

If we can find the spiritual tree and use it to nourish ourselves, we'll recover in a few days,"

Rondo said, eagerly staring at Austin.

"But the spiritual tree has been lost for countless years. No one knows where to find it,"

Elder Payne sighed and shook his head.

He had barely finished his words when the most unexpected thing happened.

There was a sudden burst of pressure from Austin's Soul Sea.

The next moment, there was a giant tree hovering in the void in the secret room.

The secret room was equipped with a brilliant space law which allowed all objects, no matter how big or small, to exist within it. Therefore, even though the spiritual tree was actually enormous in size, it was able to neatly fit into the room.

"Is that... the spiritual tree?" Rondo stammered, widening his eyes in a mixture of shock and awe.

Elder Payne, on the other hand, couldn't even find the words to say. The two of them were so stunned by the sudden appearance of the spiritual tree that they stood rooted to the spot, as if being held there by an invisible hand.

After gaping at the tree for a while, Rondo turned to Austin with an incredulous look on his face. "Master, is this really the spiritual tree? Is it actually real?"

His voice trembled with excitement and disbelief.

"Can't you feel it? It has to be the spiritual tree,"

Elder Payne murmured, his gaze fixed to the tree as if he was mesmerized by it. "It is our holy treasure that has been lost for a long time! I never thought I would be able to see it in my lifetime."

Austin was enjoying the look of pure awe on their faces, but he had other things to do, so he decided to finally end the suspense.

With a smile on his face, he said, "You don't have to keep guessing. It is indeed the spiritual tree.

Well, now that it's right in front of you, you can use it to heal your wounds. But..."

He paused, and his eyes lit up in excitement. "Before you start to cure your wounds, there is one thing you need to do.

You need to teach me how to use the spiritual soul energy of my slaves. I want to know everything there is to know about that skill!"

In fact, this was the reason why Austin had come to the Spirit Cosmos.

He already knew how to turn creatures into his slaves. However, he had no idea how to absorb their spiritual soul energy and use it.

Although there were many benefits of having slaves, being able to use their spiritual soul energy was a benefit that was extremely eye-catching to Austin. But as people said, the best fruit would be at the top of the tree. The skill of using a slave's spiritual soul energy was a high-level technique of the Puppet Strings skill. A martial arts master who had the blood of the spiritual race would automatically possess this skill when he became a divine god.

Unfortunately, although Austin was extremely well-versed in the skill of the Puppet Strings, he was not a member of the spiritual race, nor did he have any blood ties with it. Therefore, not only did he not automatically possess the skill, he hadn't had much success in cultivating it to i

was pleased with his master's treatment.

"Elder Payne, from now on, you must do your best to assist Rondo to win the position of the chief,"

Austin ordered, turning his gaze to Elder Payne.

"Of course, master!"

Elder Payne replied in a hurry.

The two of them bowed respectfully to Austin before leaving to gather their people and get ready for the battle in the Spiritual Mountain.

While they were busy with that, Austin wanted to take the opportunity to subdue more slaves of the spiritual race, partly to test his new skill, but more so to increase his power.

The spiritual race had a unique talent in collecting spiritual soul energy and cultivating secret skills related to spiritual soul energy. Austin knew that having more slaves with such a talent in his arsenal would be of great help to him in the future.

With this goal, he leaped into the air and left Prince Rondo's mansion.

He already had a target in mind. Back in the secret room, Prince Rondo and Elder Payne had told him everything about the Spirit Cosmos in detail.

Therefore, he was as familiar with the Spirit Cosmos as someone who had been living here for many years.

Soon enough, he arrived at a nearby city.

There, he headed straight to the hidden corner where his target, a divine god of the spiritual race, was cultivating in seclusion.

In total silence, he suddenly appeared in the divine god's secret room.

Without so much as a warning, he attacked the divine god, unleashing all his skills at the same time, just as he had done with his previous two targets.

The divine god in front of him was much weaker than Elder Payne.

He was no match for the stream of attacks that came from Austin⁠—the Mind Sword Skill, the Flying Swordsmanship, the Secret Reincarnation Skill, and the Puppet Strings.

Thus, he was subdued before he could even have the chance to resist.

A moment later, Austin had gained complete control of the divine god.

"So you are the governor of the city, huh?

You must have many people under your control.

That's excellent! All your subordinates and slaves are mine now,"

Austin said with a brilliant smile.
