Commotion immediately echoed inside the temple as Erik's ashes fell to the ground. Several glances seemed to shock the man in black standing in the middle of the temple. this man is not on Sky Foundation, but on Heavenly Sky Realm!
The eyes of the noble families are instantly narrowed. They fixed their gaze at the exits of the temple as uneasiness filled their hearts.
Austyn stood at the middle of the temple with an expressionless face. His deep eyes slowly surveyed the people inside the temple and he said with a hoarse voice: "Nobody can leave here until I say you can! As for the ones who leave here before that..."
Then he took another step forward and an incredible dense extraordinary Elemental Energy pressure that surpassed that of a what a Foundational Expert had by far.
The ones closer to him could not withstand the dense pressure and fainted.
"Did you think this is all?"
When Austyn spoke, his elemental energy was completely released in the form of two huge fire wings. This time, the pressure was so great that cracks quickly spread out on the ground that stretched from the temple to the lower city.
The entire temple was engulfed by an amazing elemental energy. Underneath the pressure, everybody's face changed, and they stared in horror at two huge wings.
This was the Divine Wings of a true powerhouse that surpassed the Sky Foundation. It could only have been coming from someone who stepped into a much higher stage.
The older ones within the temple felt their mouth stiffen. How many years had it been since a powerhouse on the Heavenly Sky Realm appeared in their kingdom? The last one has gone to travel in the other continents after dissapearing and it was Davon's father.
Everytime a powerhouse of this level surged it would be considered as a genuine powerhouse even within the four supreme empires and three divine academies and given the title of Lord, not to mention within their little kingdom where most of the people never saw one before!
"Son, take your wife and brother to hide. Do not worry because I already warned the other members of our family who were in town to get away."
"No father, if the Gods want our family to end it's better if we all die here." Henry did not want to see his loved ones killed while he and his wife fled to a distant place to take revenge a few years later. It was not part of her character to just sit and watch. He would rather fight with all that he has and die than try to escape.
Luke ordered his son with intense fear in his eyes, but seeing the determination in the later's eyes, he realized that there was nothing he could do as it was nealy impossible to escape.
Conting with him and a few other he knew it would not give up their freedom, there were less than 10 powerhouses with the cultivation at one of the three foundational realms present in the temple.
However, even with this number, they were completely powerless in front of Heavenly Sky Lord because the gap between them was just too big for numbers to change anything.
"I was thinking why Solmon, who was a Spirit Link Powerhouse would not came here by himself, but with this Heavenly Sky Lord, why would he waste time here?"
Within the temple, numerous gazes met with a bit of dismay. They could feel a bit of unease. Their kingdom could only survive for so much time because all kingdoms and faction on this area had similar strength and nobody was able to make another submit to them completely.
And now, where wars were something rare and everyone in their kingdom who remained peaceful for so many years had grow weak. Even their king was weakest king in the last three thousand years.
However, with the Briles Kingdom having a Heavenly Sky Lord with just forty years old, and another one who was supposedly a whole realm above this Heavenly Sky Lord. The balance between the kingdoms was completely broken.
From the 9 families who have not chosen their side yet, four walked to Davon's side and kneeled.
"We agree with you, Lord Davon. We can not just stay in a small corner of the continent throughout our lives under the banner of the great empires." The leaders of those four families, who kneeled before Davon, were the first to surrender. They had a flattering expression in their faces, which made many curl their lips in disgust at them.
Although many were disgusted by thid act, the situation had gone beyond many people's expectations and they had thoughts of doing the same thing.
Under Austyn's cold eyes, more and more people submited to him. However, the remaining five noble families did not submited yet as It was clear that they were unwilling to submit.
"Lord Davon" Luke, and the other four families head said coldly: "We are sorry, but we cannot accept your invitation to join this alliance."
Davon already knew the Branches, Reyes, Wolfheim, Bell and Orphis would not submit and watched the scene calmly. Then, his eyes turned toward his brother as he said slowly: "Brother, What should we do with them?"
Austyn smiled faintly and the air gradually turned cold. The Pressure that filled the temple disapeared as a pillar of flames raise where Luke was.
Luke's body was moved extremely fast while his figure could be seen on the other side of the temple. In the next moment, a deep blue vitality erupted out from his body. This deep blue lights formed a lightning mark on his forehead, as a the vitality emitted by him grew by 8 times.
Boom!
Light blue vitality rushed out of Henry and his brother who came back after and formed a smaller lightning marks on their forehead and their vitality grew by 4 times.
Determination shone through Theodore's eyes that turned green while wind formed below his feet as they charged forward. His Elemental Energy burst out and condensed a dozens of wind blades. Then it went toward Davon at lightning speed.
Against Theodore's attack toward his brother, Austyn remained motionless.
A hint of ridicule flashed through his deep eyes when a fire wall raise from the floor and burned the wind blades. Then, he swinged his left hand casually.
What seemed like a useless hand movement, changed in an extraordinary speed and instantly turned into a giant air flow that when it collided against Theodore's body, he spat out a mouthful of blood and colapsed on the ground.
In just one casual movement,someone who was close to being at the peak of the Sky Foundation Realm had been completely defeated.
"Dad!" Watching her father collapse before her eyes. Layla's face turned pale and she rushed to him urgently.
Bang!
Austyn swinged his hand once again and this time, It fled towards Luke who was preparing to attack but he managed to dodge it.
"Luke Branches, right? My father had told me several of your deeds, so many of them made me think that you would be a threat, but I never expected that you were still in the Earth Foundation Realm. It seems that he overestimated you."
Looking at those still standing, he said raising his hand: "Come fight me together."
