"Ha-ha! Do you have any idea just how powerful our master is?"
The twelve zodiac animals burst into uncontrollable laughter.
"Whoever he is, I am certain that a mere array won't be able to stop me!"
Ronnie was a little furious and embarrassed at not being taken seriously. He kept on brandishing his
saber and chopping crazily on the Grand Geomancy Array.
As each chop fell, so did a horrifying amount of black blade radiance on the Grand Geomancy Array. It
was as if the array were being rained down upon by dark clouds.
Such was the power of Ronnie's saber that the chaotic void within billions of miles around them
dimmed.
The radiance was everywhere.
And yet, to his immense dismay, the Grand Geomancy Array was not affected at all.
It remained stable.
Twelve hours passed and the toil yielded no result.
"Argh!"
Ronnie roared in exasperation and finally stopped his attacks. His face was extremely gloomy and
sweat was pouring down from his hair like rainwater. The pale and strange eyes on his face stared at
the Grand Geomancy Array with a helpless expression.
"What are you looking at, old man? Are you finally convinced of your defeat?"
The tiger provoked him once again.
"Huh, do you even know how powerful this array is?
I'll save you a lot of trouble by advising you to cease your attacks.
It's useless. You can't break it.
Just give up now!"
the black bull roared with laughter.
The tiger and the black bull were the rudest and most straightforward members of the group.
"Humph! After I recover a bit more, this array shall fall at my hands easily.
Mark my words, Austin, and look to my coming!
I will be back soon.
I am going to annihilate the alliance one day. I will also destroy the Fallen Divine Valley and the three
thousand big and small universes with it!"
Ronnie stared at Austin with his weird eyes and gave him a creepy smile. Then he turned around and
disappeared with a single step.
"What a weird and strange old man!"
the sky-devouring dog muttered.
"That may be, but he was not lying.
He is injured, so he can only utilize half of his strength.
When he recovers completely, he might be much more terrifying than we are giving him credit for,"
Austin remarked, gazing blankly at the place where Ronnie had disappeared.
"You are right Austin. Even at half strength, he was able to constantly attack the array for twelve hours
continuously. He is very powerful.
How terrifying would it be when he returns to his peak state?
I don't think it would be difficult for him to conquer the entire Sea of Chaos!"
Santos seconded the opinion as he walked over.
"But he is a weird guy. I wonder where he comes from,"
the sky-devouring dog said.
"He must have something to do with the Land of Outlaw.
I suspect he encountered some terrible figure or foe whilst there and that changed him.
It's even possible that he's possessed."
Austin ventured a guess.
He was remembering his own experience of the Land of Outlaw. Several strong cultivators had entered
the forest of the fake Divine Accomplishment Fruits. They were trying to get their hands on the fruits of
the forest.
However, something unexpected had happened soon after their entry.
The fake Divine Accomplishment Fruits had suddenly morphed into terrifying white bugs, and a black
shadow had appeared to hunt down the masters who were trying to get their hands on the fruits.
Austin had been lucky enough to sense that something was wrong in time and had left early.
As for what happened after his timely departure, he had no idea.
However, those white bugs had left a deep impression on his mind.
So much so that as soon as Ronnie had released the same bugs to deal with him today, he had
immediately come to the conclusion that Ronnie must have something to do with the terrible figure from
the Land of Outlaw.
"What did you say? Ronnie is possessed?"
Santos and the twelve zodiac animals were stunned upon the idea that Ronnie could be possessed.
"I am not fully certain of it, but it is highly likely that he is.
In any case, he has been acting very weird and must not be trifled with.
And that being the case, Austin, you should try your best to avoid him in the future,"
Santos warned.
"Don't worry, master. I know what to do,"
Austin assured him with a nod.
At that moment,
a blurry figure slowly appeared outside the three thousand big and small universes.
The space around the figure was constantly twisting and rippling.
No one could see the face of this figure.
But Austin, the twelve zodiac animals, and Santos all became alert when they sensed the figure.
They could tell that this figure was very powerful.
He could very well be a governing god!
"Well, well. The three thousand big and small universes seem so lively today.
Two governing gods have arrived in a single day,"
Santos coldly said as he stared at the figure.
"I don't think he is as powerful as Ronnie.
Let's go out and beat him up!
I need to vent my anger somehow!"
the tiger roared, itching for a fight.
Just now, Ronnie had overpowered the twelve zodiac animals, and they had been unable to vent their
anger.
"Calm down, everyone.
I don't intend to harm anyone.
I'm here to discuss something with Austin,"
the figure said in a soft tone.
"Discuss something with me?"
Austin asked in a puzzled tone.
A governing god arriving and saying that he needed to discuss something with Austin was a rather
confusing idea.
"Yes.
Austin, it's you that I need to talk to,"
the blurry figure replied.
"Well, what is it? Go ahead and say it.
I do not like nonsense and pleasantries,"
Austin said impatiently.
"Very well, I'll be frank.
I want to work together with you to deal with Ronnie. What say you?"
the figure asked.
"Oh? You have come here to propose a deal where we defeat Ronnie together.
But I'm not even a governing god.
Why would you come to me?"
Austin asked curiously.
"Austin, I know you are supported by the Fallen Divine Valley.
Furthermore, I know that if these twelve zodiac animals work together, they are easily equivalent to a
governing god.
I can see that they will always assist you.
I am here to ask you for a deal.
To be honest,
I am here on behalf of the five super forces. We have reached an agreement to work together against
Ronnie.
We need the alliance to join us as well,"
the figure explained.
"Five? Didn't Ronnie annihilate the Novel Court already?"
Austin asked.
"Yes and no... It was the headquarters of the Novel Court that were destroyed.
Their main forces are still intact.
Their leader and the two superior elders are healing themselves as we speak,
and they will recover soon.
Ever since that incident, the Novel Court and Ronnie have become deadly enemies.
I'm certain that Ronnie will soon provoke the other super forces and ask us to surrender.
You know of his terrible strength.
You know that only when the six super forces work together can he be defeated,"
the figure informed him.
"Yes, you are right."
Austin nodded.
"What do you think? Would you like to join us?
At least for now, we should abandon our differences and grudges and work together to kill Ronnie."
The figure looked at Austin, waiting for his answer.
"Okay, I agree,"
Austin agreed after discussing with the twelve zodiac animals and Santos in secret.
Ronnie wasn't going to let go of the alliance. And he would take down Austin and the three thousand
big and small universes with it.
His strength was too terrifying.
To be able to kill him would give them a huge win.
