"Young man, you'll never escape from me.
You might as well quit trying.
It's been a long time since I've come across someone as talented as you are.
Why would I let you go?
No. I want you to be my right-hand man,"
the man wearing white said to Austin with a smile.
"No. I don't want to be your assistant,"
Austin replied firmly, shaking his head.
Wasting no time, he took out two teleportation runes and held one in each hand. Then, he activated
them at the same time.
Boom!
Powerful teleportation energy from each rune gushed out and wrapped around Austin's body. Tearing
the space in two, they carried him away at an impressive speed.
At the same time, Austin used the Illusion Skill of Reincarnation, releasing strong energy of
reincarnation. It engulfed Austin and transported him from this space and time to another one.
In an instant, the time-space teleportation energy, the reincarnation energy, and the law of
reincarnation worked together and teleported Austin far into the distance.
"That was incredible!
He's made several advances in the reincarnation energy and the law of reincarnation.
He really is a genius. With every passing second, I'm more and more satisfied with him,"
the man wearing white said, waving his hand and releasing the law of space and time to chase after
Austin.
The second he did, Austin's body started to sink and he became frozen in place.
"Damn it!
This man is more powerful than I expected.
I can't run away at all!"
Austin exclaimed, smiling bitterly.
"But I can't just give up. I have to try something else!"
Taking out six teleportation runes, Austin activated them at the same time.
He had to be careful because he didn't have as many teleportation runes on him now.
Usually, before he used them, he counted them first.
However, the present situation was so critical that he had no time to hesitate.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, six powerful teleportation energies burst forth and wrapped around Austin like a
whirlpool. Ripping through the space and time, they shot Austin into the distance like a bullet from a
gun.
He also used the Illusion Skill of Reincarnation to maximize the reincarnation energy and the law of
reincarnation.
As he traveled through the air at lightning speed, Austin activated his mind power to attack and block
the man wearing white.
"Ha-ha-ha! Stop wasting your energy. Remember, you can't outrun me!"
The man wearing white laughed in delight when he saw Austin trying so hard to get away.
Then, he took a single step forward.
Whoosh!
The space and time was reversed and the man's body flew through the air like a phantom. Before
Austin could react, he was in front of him.
Boom!
An explosion of energy from the space and time burst from his body.
Immediately, Austin felt suppressed.
Austin's body and the surrounding space were completely frozen, as if they were made of iron.
"He was right. I can't escape from him."
Austin shook his head in shame.
"Madam, I think I've lost this time.
Once he catches me, I'll be trapped here for the rest of my life,"
Austin told Old Lady Meng, sighing.
The man wearing white had told Austin that he intended to make him his right-hand man, but Austin
suspected that he would turn him into a creature of the ghost race first.
A right-hand man was most likely equal to a powerful demon of the ghost race.
Austin wasn't happy thinking about his fate,
but there was nothing he could do about it.
He could only stand there and grind his teeth with fury.
Whoosh!
Henrik suddenly appeared beside him.
"Stop! You've already ruined me! Now you want to destroy this young man?"
Henrik yelled as he glared at the man.
Austin looked back and forth between them, feeling very confused. 'What?
This is the man that turned Henrik into a demon?'
Austin stared at Henrik as he pondered his words.
Then he thought back to Henrik's story.
According to Henrik, he had been an ordinary human. He had fallen in love with a girl called Beth and
they had lived a very happy life together.
But a mysterious cultivator had taken a fancy to Beth and came to her to propose marriage. Beth's
parents were greedy and the man had lots of money, so they married Beth off to him.
On the night of the wedding, Beth hung herself and the man killed all the members of Beth's family
from pure fury.
Later, the man found Henrik and told him that if he promised to be a demon and kill innocent people, he
would voluntarily die in Henrik's hand and let him get revenge for Beth.
As a result, Henrik killed many innocent people and became half human and half demon.
He even killed the man at the his orders.
"Is this the man who took Beth away from you?"
Austin asked Henrik, pointing at the man wearing white.
"Yes.
He is.
He was the reason why Beth killed herself.
He is my sworn enemy!"
Henrik exclaimed while looking at the man wearing white.
"I thought you said that you killed him?
Why is he still here?"
Austin asked.
"I did but he has so many avatars that he can't be killed completely.
The man I killed was only one of his avatars.
He has tens of millions of such avatars. Killing them doesn't affect his real body at all.
It took me a while to figure this out,
and by then, it was too late,"
Henrik answered, shaking his head and sighing helplessly.
"And who is this man?
If he's so strong, shouldn't the outside worlds know his name?"
Austin asked.
"Who says he is unknown?
He was a very powerful figure once upon a time.
Even I can't determine how many forces and races he's destroyed.
For example, this space and time used to belong to the fire source beast's ancestors.
He was the one who destroyed the fire source beast race,"
Henrik explained.
"He killed the fire source beast race?"
Austin exclaimed, staring at Henrik with wide eyes.
The fire source beast had been right. The man wearing white was the murderer who had massacred
his race.
"Nonsense!
The fire source beast race is not extinct.
I witnessed many fire source beasts escape from this area.
Besides, it wasn't me who killed the fire source beasts.
The negative emotions in their hearts were their demise.
They were not able to overcome the magnitude of them, and in the end, they perished,"
the man wearing white suddenly chimed in.
"You're lying!
You made most of the fire source beasts turn into demons of the ghost race,"
Henrik snapped.
"Well, you're right about one thing. The fire source beasts didn't die.
They have become creatures of the ghost race,"
the man wearing white replied.
"And now you want to turn this young man into one of them. I admire him very much. Let him go.
I won't let you hurt him,"
Henrik said suddenly, stepping in front of Austin.
"Oh?
You want me to let this young man go?
Do you feel compassion for him?"
the man wearing white asked in surprise.
