This old man was a governing god from the Ximen Clan, one of the four major forces from the Sword Cosmos.
"You, brat!
Stop it right now!"
"Austin, he is a reclusive elder of the Ximen Clan! If you lay a finger on him, we will hunt you down until the day you die!"
the governing gods of the Sword Cosmos roared mightily as they released a violent sword-light that shot towards Austin like a violent storm.
Apart from that, they also activated all kinds of law energy and magic treasures at the chaotic level. They threw all of them at Austin and created a massive combined attack.
"Kill him at once!"
The governing gods of the Blade Cosmos also joined the fray and rushed towards Austin.
They wanted to beat him as fast as possible because his earlier performance terrified them to their core.
They knew that if they didn't kill Austin today, he would become even stronger, and their chance of defeating him would become much slimmer.
They had also established their enmity towards Austin, whom they deemed to be a formidable enemy. Thus, they were also determined to get rid of him no matter what.
The simultaneous attacks from more than fifty governing gods were absolutely terrifying. They could destroy time, space, and countless worlds at will.
All of these devastating strikes were directed towards Austin.
The energy they released shattered everything in the surroundings, creating countless illusory images due to the destruction of time and space. The space barriers also cracked and collapsed one after another.
"Go to hell, brat!"
An extremely powerful governing god from the Blade Cosmos suddenly shouted as a golden saber darted out from between his eyebrows. It slashed towards Austin, carrying overbearing blade energy.
It was a secret skill that combined the blade philosophy and spiritual energy. It could not only damage the body, but also hurt the enemy's spiritual soul. This was a powerful skill that many cultivators should be wary of.
"Oh? Are you trying to attack my spiritual soul?"
Austin almost laughed as he asked this question.
Facing the siege of more than fifty governing gods, he still looked very calm and unbothered. It was as if all the efforts of the governing gods against him was a big joke.
"Fine! All my slaves, give me your spiritual energy!"
Using his spiritual sense, he sent a message to all his slaves.
Immediately after, all of his slaves in the Ethereal World hurriedly opened their Soul Seas to Austin.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Tremendous spiritual energy surged out from their Soul Seas and quickly gushed towards Austin through special channels.
These special channels were constructed from law runes related to spiritual souls. The speed at which the slaves' spiritual energy was transmitted wa
d down.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Not wasting any time, Austin used his Ultimate Mind Sword Skill. Countless streaks of sword-lights darted out and enveloped them.
The sword-lights aimed directly at the governing gods.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
At the same time, Austin also activated the Puppet Strings. Thousands of red silk strings soared into the sky and rained down towards the governing gods.
Commonly, Austin used this secret skill to subdue and control the creatures that he wanted to enslave.
However, in its normal form, these ominous strings were very powerful weapons to attack spiritual souls.
"What is with this guy? He's too powerful!"
All the governing gods of the Blade Cosmos were stunned to their core as they were put at such a tight position.
Austin's attack made them extremely slow. As they were being suppressed, they were all confused as to how they could break free from it.
Splat!
As Austin wielded his long sword, he slashed it again towards the old governing god, shattering his reorganizing body. In an instant, it was immediately turned into a mere blood mist.
"Argh! Damn it!"
The governing god let out a miserable scream. He had actually lost count of the number of times that his body exploded.
He was already in a life-threatening condition because of all his injuries.
At the same time, he had also lost so much energy and treasures as he continuously tried to heal himself.
It was known to all that a governing god could certainly recover even if his physical body was completely smashed into pieces.
However, repeatedly experiencing this kind of suffering could still take a huge toll on the body of the one undergoing this torture.
Furthermore, although it was extremely difficult to kill a governing god, it wasn't impossible, especially if he had already taken a significant amount of damage.
