Austin's arrival gave an overwhelming pressure in every corner of the Sky Sect's headquarters. In a moment, all the disciples, stewards, and elders rushed out at once to come face to face with none other than the A.L. Army as their target.
Even some superior elders and reclusive elders were disturbed by the strong presence and without hesitation ceased their own cultivation process that had been going on for years and left their own secluded rooms.
Their actions proved that Austin's presence was not a matter to be taken lightly but a serious issue that could determine either life or death of their own sect.
The sky above the headquarters was slowly being crowded with people as time went by.
All eyes focused on the sole person where the strong presence was coming from. It was Austin. Every person was in disbelief. Some felt fear and some with grief.
Austin slowly scanned his surroundings. In a short span of time, he already had a general idea about the strength of the Sky Sect's headquarters by perception through his spiritual sense.
He easily assessed every person and identified their own strength. As he went on, he noticed that there were more than ten reclusive elders.
Four of them had reached the Semi-emperor Realm while the others were at the premium stage of Holy Realm.
They were not in groups and each of them were scattered in the crowd but it was an easy feat for Austin to estimate each one's presence and ability. Following these reclusive elders were the superior elders. There were more than forty of them and they were all at the preliminary stage or the medium stage of Holy Realm.
Below the superior elders were sixty to seventy ordinary elders. Most of them were at the Primal Holy Realm or the Semi-holy Realm.
After the ordinary elders, there were nearly two hundred stewards. Their cultivation base was distributed in the Heaven Realm, the Tribulation Realm and the Astral Realm.
Lastly, the rest of the crowd were the ordinary disciples of the Sky Sect. There were fifty to sixty thousands of them.
This was Austin's final assessment of the overall strength of the Sky Sect's headquarters.
In the South Continent, a sect with such number and strength would absolutely be regarded as one of the largest and strongest among all the sects. Few power could ever be of par with such level of cultivation base with each important figures in the sect. It was the reason why they were highly respected and stayed in a top position among others across the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom.
But for Austin, these seemingly high-level cultivators were not enough to faze him. It would not be difficult for him to deal with such a force.
"How dare you! You are so arrogant! This is the headquarters of our Sky Sect. You dare have the courage to mess around our territory!
Get out of here!"
In mid-air, a raged reclusive elder sprinted towards Austin. An overwhelming vital energy force emanated from his body, pressing on Austin.
The reclusive elder was already at the premium stage of Holy Realm which he had worked and gained by spending years in seclusion.
He was one of the most respected and feared reclusive elders. Over the years, no one ever dared to provoke the Sky Sect because of those masters' formidable strength and foundation. No one thought that anyone would dare come and claim to destroy the sect. All members of the Sky Sect thought that Austin must have hit his head and become muddled! Otherwise, he wouldn't be talking nonsense like this!
The grumpy reclusive elder, of course, could not stand this kind of provocation.
Shoop!
As soon as the reclusive elder said this, a black light flashed.
A black light appeared before him out of nowhere like a ghost. Austin was just still on his spot and watched everything that transpired in ease. The black light was Austin's demonic avatar and as soon as it appeared before the reclusive elder, it unleashed a powerful demonic energy. Without having any time to react, the reclusive elder's throat was gripped in an instant.
Then he was lifted high up in the air.
The fight only happened in just seconds. Some elders with stronger cultivation base clearly saw what happened to their respected reclusive elder being caught and defeated easily without any fight compared to those who had lower level of cultivation base, and they were in shock to see their reclusive elder gripped on the throat and was dangling on air.
Austin's demonic avatar was more than six meters high, much taller than any other human. Now, he held up the reclusive elder of the Sky Sect easily not giving a way out, like an eagle catching a chicken.
Clack, clack, clack...
Incredibly, as one of the masters of the premium stage of Holy Realm, the reclusive elder appeared to have no power to resist Austin's demonic avatar.
As he was seized by the throat, he could only utter a gurgling noise with his face flushed and eyes bulging. Surprise, anger and shame contorted on his face.
In the Sky Sect, he was a respected reclusive elder who held a very high position. But now, in front of so many other elders and disciples, he was controlled by merely another person in the blink of an eye, just like a weak chicken.
Even if he managed to survive, he wouldn't be able to live with the shame in the Sky Sect.
"Austin, you are too presumptuous! Let him go!"
With a cry of rage, a figure rushed to the demonic avatar in an attempt to save the reclusive elder who had been seized by the throat.
He was another reclusive elder whose cultivation base was at the preliminary stage of Semi-emperor Realm.
Bang!
This reclusive elder had a rather higher cultivation base, but he still was unable to give a powerful blow to Austin's demonic avatar. Everyone witnessed and even felt how powerful the hit was but Austin's demonic avatar only gave out a shake on its right hand. That time, the reclusive elder who was seized by the throat let out a scream. He tried to wiggle out with all his might but then without any warning, his body exploded into a blood mist. Just like that, it was the end for the reclusive elder's life.
Austin's demonic avatar moved its attention towards the other reclusive elder who tried to attack him.
It came face to face with a reclusive elder at the preliminary stage of Semi-emperor Realm. The latter, as a powerful reclusive elder confident with his attack, was in shock and disbelief. One of the reclusive elders' life was gone just like that. The reclusive elder knew well to himself that even if he delivered a powerful hit, Austin's demonic avatar was not harmed in any way.
Boom!
Austin's demonic avatar raised its fist.
Immediately, half of the sky went completely black. Every corner of the sect was engulfed by darkness. Nothing could be seen. This sudden change of surrounding made the heart of each one to be in panic and alert.
Even the cultivators' perception through spiritual sense had become dense. It was greatly limited. They were greatly disturbed but tried to intensify their spiritual sense in preparation for any attack to their side.
