"Well done, Austin! That was impressive!"
Divine Swordsman and Santos stepped forward, patted Austin on the shoulder and gave him praises.
"Thank you for your kind words."
Austin humbly said with a smile.
"Kid, you're showing a lot of promise.
Did you enjoy it just now?"
the sky-devouring dog said casually, but its eyes were also filled with pride and gratification.
"Thanks to you! You have taught me a lot to achieve what I have just achieved today. I owe you!"
Austin looked at the sky-devouring dog and said sincerely.
Indeed, it was mainly because the sky-devouring dog had brought Austin back to the Fallen Divine
Valley that Austin was able to reach to this point.
The sky-devouring dog was indeed Austin's savior apart from being a teacher and mentor.
Therefore, Austin was extremely grateful to the dog.
"Come on, boy! Don't be so cheesy!"
The sky-devouring dog waved its paw.
"Austin!"
The other divine gods of the three thousand big and small universes all came to surround Austin to
congratulate him.
"Austin, you are simply awesome!
Where did you get the courage to confront those five strong cultivators? And you even killed them!"
"Austin, does this mean that your current fighting power is even stronger than that of a genuine
premium-grade divine god?"
"But, Austin, you are still just an ordinary preliminary-grade divine god!"
The divine gods surrounded Austin, asking many questions excitedly and with much curiosity.
Austin didn't know which question he should answer first. He was beginning to get overwhelmed.
"Master."
Austin then pushed through the crowd and walked up to Peterson the Taoist Ancestor.
"You were excellent!
Sure enough, I was right about you!"
Peterson the Taoist Ancestor said with relief and satisfaction.
"Clean the battlefield!"
The Divine Swordsman and Santos barked out their orders. As a quick response, the group of the three
thousand big and small universes immediately began to clean up this chaotic void.
"Well, boy. It is time for me to go back to the Fallen Divine Valley,"
the sky-devouring dog suddenly said to Austin.
At this time, Austin was surrounded by a large number of enthusiastic divine gods from the three
thousand big and small universes, being asked a number of questions.
"So soon?"
Austin replied with surprise.
"Well, you don't need me here anymore.
Kid, you are now stronger than me. You have more than enough to protect the three thousand big and
small universes. It's useless for me to stay here.
Besides, I prefer the beautiful, warm sunshine in the Fallen Divine Valley. The sunlight in this universe
community is too dry and boring. There is light but there really isn't any life. Not a good one at least.
I don't want to stay here and suffer much longer when I can spend my days in peace and surrounded
by beauty.
I have to go back to the Fallen Divine Valley and enjoy my long craved sunshine bath,"
the sky-devouring dog replied.
Austin was speechless. The sky-devouring dog had a good point.
"By the way, sir, I'm sure your current strength is not your peak.
Have you ever been hurt?"
Austin suddenly asked.
"Sharp enough, boy.
Yes, I did suffer a few serious injuries.
I almost died because of those.
To tell you the truth, until now, I'm still seriously injured.
In fact, not only me, but also all the creatures in the Fallen Divine Valley. They have all been seriously
injured.
It could be said that every living being in the Fallen Divine Valley is seriously ill.
And the Fallen Divine Valley is our place to recuperate and recharge,"
explained the sky-devouring dog.
Out of earshot of anyone, the sky-devouring dog said all of these to Austin using its spiritual sense.
"Wait, what do you mean? All the creatures in the Fallen Divine Valley have been hurt?"
Hearing this, Austin was stunned.
"What the hell is going on?"
Austin asked.
"Boy, it'd be better that you did not know it."
The sky-devouring dog shook its head.
"But I'm also a member of the Fallen Divine Valley,"
Austin insisted.
"No.
Boy, you are still too weak now.
Also, there is something I can't tell you.
You have to understand that there are some horrible wills that are paying attention to everything in this
universe, and many other universes for that matter.
With our current strength, once I mention those things, we will be immediately sensed and caught in
their radar.
By that time, we will all be doomed to suffer.
Moreover, the master would be implicated.
So, as much as I want to, I can't tell you,"
said the sky-devouring dog.
The look on his face was very serious.
"In that circumstance, am I still too weak?"
Austin was stunned.
"That's right.
Austin, with your current strength, you are still very weak.
If you want to know everything, you should work harder as you move along further.
One day, when you are strong enough.
I will tell you everything that you need to know,"
said the sky-devouring dog.
"I see. Okay."
Austin had no choice but to just nod along.
"Oh, right.
By the way Austin, my master sent me to tell you that, the more powerful you are, like right now, the
more difficult it will be for you to become a genuine divine god.
So as early as now, your path to becoming a genuine divine god is destined to be very difficult."
The sky-devouring dog suddenly warned.
"Really? How did this happen?"
Hearing this, Austin was stunned.
"That's true.
Logically speaking, you should have become a genuine divine god, ages ago.
But till now, you are still an ordinary preliminary-grade divine god.
That's because you are much too powerful.
An ordinary preliminary-grade divine god was even more powerful than a premium-grade divine god - it
was somewhat unthinkable.
You should know that there is a thing called "the envy of supreme enlightenment". The will of chaotic
vacuum doesn't want, a peerless genius like you, to become a genuine divine god.
So, Austin, you have to be mentally prepared. It's very difficult for you to become a genuine divine god.
But once you manage to become a genuine divine god one day, your fighting power will be terrifying.
I'm afraid that one day, even the will of the chaotic vacuum will not be able to control you.
Austin, no matter what happens, I believe in you. Just remember work extremely hard and give it all
you got,"
advised the sky-devouring dog.
"The supreme enlightenment?
The will of the chaos vacuum?
Are they real?"
Austin asked with a frown.
"Both are real, kid.
And don't forget to take care of yourself, always."
The sky-devouring dog reminded.
"All right.
I'm leaving."
As soon as the sky-devouring dog finished its words, it stretched out its paw and waved to the space
beside it. Immediately a space teleportation channel appeared. Without even looking back, it walked in
and disappeared.
"Is my path to becoming a genuine divine god, going to be extremely difficult?"
When the sky-devouring dog was gone, Austin felt a little heavy in his heart.
"I was actually thinking about the same thing. I have gone through a lot these days. Logically speaking,
I should have accumulated enough.
However, there was no sign a new Thunderstroke Doom.
It turns out that the stronger my fighting power becomes, the harder it will be for me to become a
genuine divine god!"
Austin smiled bitterly, feeling his victory so close, yet so far.
"The supreme enlightenment?
Will of the chaotic vacuum? What in the world are these?"
Austin raised his head and looked into the depths of the void, where there was some confusion
brewing.
"Well, I, Austin, will never flinch.
No matter how difficult it is, by hook or by crook, I will become a genuine divine god one day!"
Austin swore to himself.
"Austin, it's time to go back. We have to go now,"
said the Divine Swordsman as he walked over to Austin.
"Okay."
Austin nodded.
With that, Austin took his group back to the three thousand big and small universes.
At the same time, Austin sent a message to Flora.
After some discussion, Flora finally let the Infinite City secretly enter the three thousand big and small
universes.
The movements of the Infinite City were very discreet and hardly noticeable. Even the Divine
Swordsman and Santos couldn't tell that there was a city flying into the three thousand big and small
universes.
