Suddenly, the tension in the Heaven Pavilion Sect began to mount. All the disciples hastily armed themselves.
Austin flew out of the mountain with the Sect Supremo, and they stood firmly at the mountain gate.
He ordered the disciples, who were guarding the mountain gate, to retreat to the headquarters of the Heaven Pavilion Sect.
Austin knew that those disciples were too weak to withstand the fierce aggression of the demon race. It was very likely that they would die in the first round.
Therefore, he concluded that it was better if only the Sect Supremo and he remained at the mountain gate. They kept floating midair and decided to wait and see their enemy get closer.
Austin released his spiritual sense to perceive what was happening across the vast land ahead.
About ten thousand meters away, a large army seemed to be marching towards the Heaven Pavilion Sect. It was as dense as a mass of locusts. The dark evil aura it exuded nearly touched the sky.
"It looks like it must have taken lots of work and money for the demon race and the Heaven Palace to set this up."
Austin frowned as he analyzed and became aware of the rival army's strength.
It was several times more compared to that of the Heaven Pavilion Sect.
According to the sharp winds lurking in the air, the army seemed far more powerful than the disciples of the Heaven Pavilion Sect. There was simply nothing to compare between the two sides.
Austin allowed himself a wry smile.
It was very clear to him that the Heaven Pavilion Sect was too weak to face the army that was approaching towards them.
Among his people, only the Sect Supremo was in the Tribulation Realm. Only he could be of use.
The rest were all inferior and lesser than the Astral Realm.
Far from being able to initiate a sect to establish their own force, they were too weak even to defend themselves properly.
Austin knew it quite well that the only thing that could make a difference to the Heaven Pavilion Sect was merely the Eighteen Arhats Array. And the only person who could face the situation was himself.
"I must train some overmatches for the Heaven Pavilion Sect to rival our opponents in future. It is not advisable in the long-term for me to shoulder this great responsibility alone,"
Austin muttered to himself.
"Master, the army of the demon race and the Heaven Palace seems to be really powerful!"
the Sect Supremo said with concern. He too had sensed the sinister atmosphere which the army carried with itself. His face wore a worried expression.
"Whatever comes, we will confront them! The invaders are strong, so are we,"
Austin replied. He had to be confident and determined if he had to overcome his foes.
"That's right. We will do our best and never disgrace the reputation of the Heaven Pavilion Sect."
The Sect Supremo's confidence too was uplifted by Austin's words.
Recently, most of the forces and the human warriors in the Triangle Zone had left one after another.
Only the Heaven Pavilion Sect still stood their ground at the headquarters. Moreover, the news that they crushed two or three assaults of the Heaven Palace had spread throughout the Triangle Zone!
Therefore, the Heaven Pavilion Sect had become the focus of the whole area now. This caused a lot of gossip and discussion among the public.
"As long as we can hold on, we will never give up. They shall never be able to occupy the Heaven Pavilion Sect without paying for it."
Austin's eyes were fixed in the direction of the army of the demon race and the Heaven Palace. Fierceness and decisiveness were shining in his eyes.
Influenced by Austin's attitude, the Sect Supremo started to boost his morale.
The army of the demon race and the Heaven Palace was advancing quickly and in a short time, it was only about four or five thousand meters away.
From afar, overwhelming dark clouds moved closer unperturbedly. The light in the sky turned dimmer and darkness seemed to be looming over the whole area.
It looked as if a storm was coming. The dark clouds were gathering overhead and the tension in the air became oppressive. It was an ominous omen, showing that a fierce battle was about to break out.
Looking at the dark clouds at edge of the sky, Austin was struck with an idea.
'Damn it!'
Rather than wait for them there, Austin decided it would be wise to seize the opportunity and take the initiative to attack them.
No sooner did he convince himself than he got to work.
"Wait for me here. I'm going to give them a head-on blow!"
