"What the hell did you just say? Master?! When did he become your master?!
Oh, no! Are you under his control?!"
Shock filled Emmet to the core when he heard Warner's words.
Since Emmet was an experienced cultivator who had lived for a long time, he quickly realized that
something was amiss.
"Cut the crap and surrender!"
Austin demanded. His only hope right now was to enslave Emmet as soon as possible so he could
make them combine their power to practice their special sword array.
Moreover, Austin wanted to try and grasp their special methods since he urgently needed to enhance
his abilities.
"Now!"
Austin ordered to Warner.
"Emmet, stop resisting! Show your respect to my master!"
Without any hesitation, Warner raised his black long sword and activated the rolling great cosmos force
to attack Emmet.
"Warner, come on! You and I together are peerless in the entire Sword Cosmos. We could make the
entire cosmos tremble!
Why are you submitting yourself to this young man?
You're humiliating yourself!"
Fury and fear warred on Emmet's face as he demanded answers from Warner.
"Silence!
Master is the true invincible person in my eyes. It's a great honor for me to be his slave!
If you disrespect my master like that again, I will never let you go!"
Warner shouted right back, his fury coloring every word.
Boom!
Like a black divine mountain, the black sword in Warner's hand began to grow. Once it was big enough,
all of its terrifying pressure slashed towards Emmet without any hesitation.
"Warner! Do you really think I'll be scared of you?
I know your strength well!"
Emmet hissed angrily.
Every word he spoke was punctuated with his sharp red sword turning into a red divine mountain to
block Warner's attack.
Boom!
A deafening explosion echoed around them as the two swords collided with each other and let out a
shower of blindingly bright sparks.
Endless waves of energy vibration spread towards all directions.
All the energy was the great cosmos force and left the nearby surroundings trembling.
Fortunately, this place was the eye of the Sword Cosmos and the very structure of both space and time
was very stable.
If they were somewhere else, the entirety of the cosmos would have been destroyed in an instant by
such a terrifying energy impact.
"I also know exactly what you're capable of. Do you really think I'll be scared of you?"
Warner spat.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Slowly but surely, the intensity of the battle between Warner and Emmet was soaring.
In all honesty, Emmet's ability was actually a little stronger than Warner's,
but they were familiar with each other's every move since they spent ages cultivating together.
It was basically impossible for either of them to quickly gain the upper hand.
"Don't be so stupidly stubborn!
No one could equal our combined power in the Sword Cosmos!
One day, we'll definitely get the chance to conquer the entire Sword Cosmos.
Why do you have to be a slave?"
Emmet wasn't convinced and he was still desperately hoping to slap Warner back to reality.
Unfortunately, Warner was controlled by Austin's secret skill known as the Puppet Strings, and even all
the thoughts deep in Warner's soul were rewritten to center around Austin.
It was impossible to change with Emmet's words alone.
"Emmet, you've disrespected my master many times. I can't tolerate it any longer!
Go to hell!"
Fury wracked through Warner's body as he flew towards Emmet to desperately attack him.
"Argh! Warner, you bastard! You piss me off!"
Emmet couldn't hold back his anger any longer.
"This is an amazing battle!"
Austin was leisurely watching with his hands behind his back.
Suddenly,
the expression on Austin's face abruptly changed.
With the help of his spiritual sense, he found that a dozen figures with horrible auras were trying to
sneak their way into the Ethereal World.
Each one of them was undeniably governing gods!
'Did the masters of the four major forces come here again after they heard the news?'
Austin thought to himself.
While he was considering various scenarios in his mind, he made sure to continue carefully perceived
those figures.
Whoosh!
Many blade-shaped runes floated around them and Austin's senses informed him about it immediately.
'They're the governing gods of the Blade Cosmos!'
Even Austin was caught by surprise.
'Seems like the people of the Blade Cosmos are also aiming for the Ethereal World.
Actually it isn't a surprise that they're all scrambling to get here.
After all, a large amount of great cosmos force could be found in the Ethereal World.'
After a brief analysis, Austin could clearly understand the reason why they arrived.
'Anyway,
what's important right now is subduing Emmet.
As long as both of them follow my every word,
it'll be a piece of cake to deal with all the governing gods of the Blade Cosmos,'
Austin thought to himself.
Once he found the chance, he immediately used his Mind Sword Skill to attack Emmet.
At that time, the battle between Emmet and Warner was fierce as neither of them could decisively
defeat each other.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Without even giving him room to breathe, Austin's mind swords continued to attack Emmet's body,
slashing and destroying his internal organs, flesh, and bones.
It was almost impossible to dodge the mind swords,
because Austin's opponent would only realize it once he was hit.
Therefore, there was no way for Emmet to defend against it.
Moreover, the speed of the mind sword's every attack was too fast!
With a single thought, Austin could control thousands of mind swords to attack Emmet.
"Ah!
How dare you!"
Not long after the barrage of attacks from the mind swords began, Emmet couldn't endure it any longer.
Although each slash wasn't fatal to him,
small things eventually added up to something big.
"Ha-ha! Now you realize how powerful my master is.
For the sake of our previous friendship, I advise you to obediently submit to my master.
You wouldn't need to endure this torture any longer!"
Warner burst out into peals of loud laugher.
A large amount of great cosmos force burst out of the black sword in his hand and it quickly surged
towards Emmet.
With Austin's help,
Emmet found his back against the wall as he was forced to step back.
"Argh!"
Anxiety and anger filled Emmet as he couldn't find a way to gain the upper hand.
Originally, the combination of the two swords was his trump card,
but now, Warner turned from friend into foe and relentlessly attacked him instead.
"It's all your fault!
I'm going to kill you!"
Emmet couldn't help the desperate roar that ripped its way out of his throat.
Suddenly, he turned around and rushed towards Austin in an attempt to kill him.
In his mind, Warner must have surely fallen under Austin's control due to some strange secret skills.
If he killed Austin, Warner might turn back to normal.
Boom!
The long red sword in his hand turned into a huge red divine mountain once again.
Tremendous great cosmos force dashed towards Austin from all directions.
"Humph!
As long as there's still breath in my body, I won't let you lay a finger on my master!"
Warner used his bodily movement skill to chase after Emmet and he quickly waved his black sword to
block Emmet's attack.
"You can't kill me.
Warner's right. It'll be better for you to just surrender.
I don't want to hurt you,"
Austin said with a faint smile.
