"Austin's sword skills have certainly improved again!
This guy never fails to surprise us!"
The five sword spirits couldn't help but be amazed at Austin.
They found out that his progress in swordsmanship was much faster than what they had expected.
"When I first met him, I instantly felt that he had a genuine talent for swordsmanship.
But looking at him now. I think that I might have not gauged his full potential. I can say that he is the
most talented swordsman that I've ever met in my life!"
the old man in yellow robes said in astonishment.
The other sword spirits nodded in agreement.
"Austin! Take this!"
Suddenly, a deafening noise rang out.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Currently, hundreds of millions of brilliant sword lights filled and flashed on the battlefield, making the
fight so difficult to track even for the five sword spirits.
A governing god emerged above Austin's head. His body was fully covered with glowing feathers.
It turned out that these feathers were all formed from the thick sword lights.
As he waved his hand, hundreds of millions of sword lights rained down on Austin.
Their strength was so intense that it seemed like the sky was about to be destroyed.
With his quick reflexes, Austin activated the Shadowless Movement to dodge the upcoming blow.
Austin was careful enough in dealing with these governing gods.
He didn't have the luxury of standing still and taking the hit from these omnipotent beings from the
supreme universe.
After all, even he could suffer such massive damage if he was directly hit by their destructive attacks.
"Come forth!"
Austin then opened his mouth, letting out a flying sword.
Clang! Clang!
The loud sounds of metal colliding echoed continuously in the air.
It came from different directions, obviously showing how large-scale the attacks from both sides were.
An angry scream reverberated. Immediately after, it was seen that the governing god, who just
attacked Austin, was bleeding on his shoulder.
Apparently, he got stabbed by Austin's flying sword.
The flying sword was initially aimed at his head, but at the crucial moment, the governing god was able
to summon an omnipotent skill to redirect the trajectory of the attack. However, he couldn't fully dodge,
and the flying sword still slashed his shoulder.
Despite that, it still made him exceedingly furious.
Even though he was able to dodge, he still suffered damage. Moreover, his spiritual soul was almost
hit.
This made him realize that the young man was indeed a vicious threat to all of them, and he had the
capability of taking their lives if they weren't too careful.
Wasting no time, the governing god quickly took a step back and distanced himself from Austin.
He was so frustrated that the young man was able to instill fear in his heart.
"Ha-ha! What are you doing, old man? Are you trying to run away?" Austin taunted as his black hair
fluttered in the air.
He was like an incarnate of a ferocious demon that hunted everyone in his way.
In the face of these mighty governing gods, Austin displayed his magnificent sword skills without
reservation.
As he stood there in the air, waves of brilliant sword aura enveloped him.
At the same time, strong sword radiance surged out from every pore of his body.
From afar, one could see Austin as if he was a dazzling sun.
It just showed that he had already reached such tremendous level in swordsmanship.
They couldn't just hit Austin randomly because the sword aura was protecting his entire body.
It meant that relatively weak strikes would just be deflected by the sword aura, rendering them useless.
They could never hurt Austin this way.
However, it didn't mean that nothing could cause him damage.
Austin clearly knew that the attacks of these governing gods were extremely devastating. He couldn't
take his chance, so he had to dodge them as much as possible.
"If you're not going to attack, then it's my turn!"
Austin suddenly dashed forward.
"Now! Kill him!"
At that moment, all the governing gods around closed in on Austin at their top speed.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The battle was so fierce that the universe was beginning to collapse.
"This is not good. If this continued, the entire space would crumble!"
Meanwhile, on the Divine Sword Mountain, the five sword spirits furrowed their eyebrows as they
worried about the situation.
"We need to activate the defense function of the Divine Sword Mountain immediately!"
the yellow-robed elder shouted.
Then, the five sword spirits made gestures while murmuring indistinct words.
Soon after, a slight shaking could be felt on the mountain.
Mysterious runes continuously emerged and gradually spread in all directions.
Wherever these runes passed by, the space became more solidified.
As the runes moved around, the damaged space was quickly restored to its normal state.
Meanwhile, the battle between the governing gods and Austin raged on.
More and more sword auras also appeared in the void.
Eventually, they engulfed the void surrounding the Divine Sword Mountain.
Sword lights kept gushing out from Austin's body and swept through the air.
"Austin, go to hell!"
Out of the blue, seven governing gods formed an array as they stood in different directions,
surrounding Austin. Under their perfect control, a sharp sword was unleashed that attacked Austin at
incredible speed.
Unfortunately, Austin hadn't seen this coming. It was quite too late when he noticed what the governing
gods were employing.
The seven governing gods infused as much energy as possible into the sword, intending to finish
Austin with this blow.
Like a scorching sun,
the sword gave off such exuberating brilliance.
Meanwhile, it also moved at an astonishing speed.
Without the right amount of time to dodge, Austin was hit by the blazing sword.
He stumbled backward, and his body was covered in blood.
As his body continuously absorbed the destructive power of the sword,
in just a split-second, his body suddenly exploded.
His flesh and blood splashed in the void, like a cloud of blood mist.
Austin was certainly caught off guard.
Furthermore, the governing gods' strike was too powerful to be received head-on.
"Look! Austin was killed.
It looks like the battle is finally over!"
"Alas. It's such a pity that the young man had to die this way.
I've never seen such a talented young man before!"
"Well, no matter how powerful and talented he was, we all know how this fight is going to end.
His arrogance is what killed him.
Who on his right mind would dare to challenge over ten governing gods by himself?!
He wasted all his skills and talents.
This was suicide!"
"You're right.
There are many geniuses all over.
However, most of them end up dead because they don't know their limitations."
Seeing that Austin was cut into pieces by the sword created by the governing gods, the onlookers in
the distance began to express different thoughts.
But even though they had varying perspectives about Austin, they were all convinced that he was
already defeated.
"Will Austin be all right?"
Watching from the Divine Sword Mountain, Sword Son Curry couldn't help but get nervous upon seeing
what happened to his disciple.
"Get ready!
If he really is in a bad condition, we must go and save him.
We can't let him die here!"
the yellow-robed elder informed the other sword spirits.
"Austin, you still didn't learn your lesson, did you?"
This is what happens when you provoke us! Today, this is going to be your burial ground!"
Rollins lets out a devilish laugh.
He was one of the governing gods who had a deep grudge against Austin.
At this point, everyone stared intently at the spot where Austin's body exploded. They were yet to know
whether he really died already or not.
"Humph!
Do you think you can kill me just with that?
You underestimate my power.
Show me the best that you can throw at me!"
A vicious and cold voice suddenly resounded.
Then, on the same spot where they saw Austin get killed,
the torn flesh and spilled blood started to gather back together.
Soon after, Austin returned to his original state as if nothing happened.
'Well, the attack of the governing gods was indeed terrifying.
But too bad for them, I have the five truths of swordsmanship and a world of swordsmanship within me.
Just their sword aura and sword intent won't be able to kill me,'
Austin thought as he let out a wicked grin.
Although the joint attack of the seven governing gods had fully shattered his body,
Austin was able to absorb parts of the sword aura and sword intent contained in the strike through the
five truths of swordsmanship and the world of swordsmanship in his body.
Therefore, although he was slightly injured,
there was no way that Austin was going to get killed by their attack.
