"No... How can this be? Austin, you... you became a divine god?"
Sensing the high reserves of aura that surrounded Austin, the devilish nether beast immediately
concluded him to be a divine god. The discovery of this fact made it lose its guard as it felt frustration
well up inside of it by the sudden change of events.
The next moment, Austin's fist tackled against the claw of the devilish nether beast.
The sheer force exploding from the collision caused ripples across the air around them.
Crack!
The devilish nether beast was unable to withstand the pressure of the attack. As a result, its claw
exploded, ripping away at its flesh and exposing its bones.
But Austin didn't seem to stop; he kept on increasing his strength to hit the devilish nether beast.
The excruciating pain ringing throughout its body from the impact made the devilish nether beast cry
out in agony. The bone of its arm cracked under pressure as it stared at its battered arm in a pitiful
state.
"Is that all you've got? It seems I may have overestimated your strength..." Austin taunted
condescendingly.
Although he recently acquired the strength of a divine god, he was confident in himself. He didn't seem
to care about the fact that the devilish nether beast was a medium-grade divine god. He showed no
hint of fear while taking on it head-on. With his eyes burning with determination, he strode towards the
beast, ready to take it out.
"G-go to hell!" The voice of the devilish nether beast cracked in response to its explosive anger.
It glared in Austin's direction when a black horn stuck out of its forehead. The horn sharply lit up and
emitted a beam of dark light that rushed into Austin's direction.
The devilish nether beast planned to unleash a secret skill that was exclusive to its race. The technique
followed the negative and evil law, and it was mysterious, yet fatal.
Clung!
Tenacious as he was, Austin punched the black light several times to hold it back before it could hit
him.
"Damn it! That hurts!" Austin exclaimed, his face twisting in pain as he let out low grunts.
Stopping the attack in its tracks with his bare hands caused his fingers to take a toll as he endured the
pain.
"No way! That's not possible! You just became a divine god, how can you wield such tremendous
power right off the bat?" The pupils of the devilish nether beast shook violently out of fear.
The dark light emitted from its horn was a manifestation of its pure original blood essence. The fact that
even divine gods of its level were unable to withstand it was enough to vouch for its formidable force.
But then there stood Austin, maintaining his strong stature seemingly unscathed after having endured
the most fatal blow the devilish nether beast had to offer.
The dominant spectacle of Austin's strength not only shocked the devilish nether beast, but even the
onlookers were rendered speechless with their mouth agape.
'Incredible! A person who just became a preliminary-grade divine god fought bare-handed against a
medium-grade divine god and inflicted massive damage without contracting so much as a small scar.
His combat skills are beyond amazing!' the onlookers thought to themselves as they witnessed Austin
in action.
Back then, Austin would face no trouble in putting down medium-grade divine gods due to his
frightening agility and the small purple sword, which was a chaotic magic treasure.
The main reason behind him defeating Colby was the thirty-six-colored clouds.
Colby's judgment was clouded by his own self-absorption when he decided to unleash a full-blown
attack on Austin while the latter was preoccupied with the Thunderstroke Doom. As a result, his plan
backfired, and he ended up getting killed by Austin.
If it hadn't been for the thirty-six-colored clouds, Austin wouldn't have been able to defeat Colby, let
alone take his life.
Amidst the awestruck gazes now glued to Austin, he dashed towards the devilish nether beast.
With every step he took that brought him closer to his prey, the murderous aura surrounding him grew
more fierce and wild.
Frightened by Austin's unwavering momentum, the devilish nether beast instinctively shrunk as it took
a few steps back. Fearing for its life, it clutched its broken arm in an attempt to protect itself from
Austin's murderous glares.
"This isn't over Austin! Just you watch. I'll get back at you for this insult someday. Don't you forget it!"
the devilish nether beast shouted after gathering its remaining strength.
Upon declaring its plans to avenge itself, the devilish nether beast pulled out a black rune paper. The
moment it tore it apart, a dark light unleashed itself from its core. The light quickly enveloped the beast
and dashed into a spatial channel, leaving no trace behind.
"All of you! Retreat at once!" the devilish nether beast ordered its men before making its exit.
The sheer intensity of its voice shook the chaotic void.
Upon hearing this, the people of the underworld rushed to retreat in the direction of the entrance to the
Underworld Cosmos.
Aside from the devilish nether beast, there were six other medium-grade divine gods in the crowd of
the underworld.
However, once the devilish nether beast exchanged fists with Austin, it realized their current strength
was insufficient to finish him off.
Feeling overpowered by Austin, it decided to retreat with its people.
"It's outrageous how you all think I'll let you get away just like that," Austin mocked as a mischievous
smirk stretched across his face.
Taking a step forward to boost his speed, Austin went after the people of the underworld. Within a flash,
he appeared behind one of the preliminary-grade divine gods. Before his prey could even register what
was going on, Austin threw him a punch.
Caught off guard from a sudden attack, the preliminary-grade divine god was knocked off into the air as
Austin's fist made contact with his body.
Austin too, was a preliminary divine god now.
However, he was in a league of his own. Those of his level could barely lay a finger on him.
After taking out one of them, Austin scanned his surroundings to scope out his next
victim.
