"Austin, I bet now you regret choosing to be the enemy of our Sword Palace!
Haha! Unfortunately for you, there is no cure for regret!
Now I shall send you to hell!"
The leader of the Sword Palace got very excited, staring at Austin with his bloodthirsty eyes. He could not contain the pleasant sensation that he was feeling, thinking that Austin's head would be rolling any second now.
The last thing on his mind was that Austin could withstand a blow from the God of Sword.
Instantly, the huge sword, more than a million feet long, was aimed at Austin. As it launched forward, it cut the entire starry sky into two. The movement was so striking that it gave people an impression of opening the gates of hell.
Austin didn't bother saying a word. His eyes grew serious as they narrowed into slits. He stretched out his hand and the Weapon Pagoda shot up to the sky faster than lightning. Just as quickly, it shot thousands of secret weapons in perfect synchrony, aiming at the huge sword like a downpour.
However, to Austin's surprise, the huge sword let out a shake and sent out a massive wave of energy, which forced the pagoda back. The secret weapons were shattered into pieces one after another.
'How about Mysterious Magnetic Mountain? Maybe that would work!' Austin said in his head.
Austin uttered spells under his breath and the Mysterious Magnetic Mountain flew out of his body, covered with dazzling mysterious magnetic light that was extremely blazing.
Circles of mysterious magnetic fields surged and spread out quickly. Within a split second, silver runes were formed and began to seal the space all around.
With the Mysterious Magnetic Mountain in his hand, Austin rushed to the sky. His black hair fluttered wildly under the impact of the sword radiance all over the sky.
Finally, the Mysterious Magnetic Mountain in Austin's hand and the huge sword with the length of more than a million feet collided with indescribable intensity, right over all the people who were out to witness the battle.
It was neck and neck, with neither side having the better of the other.
For a moment, time and space seemed to have frozen.
There was nothing but dead silence high up in the sky and all the way, deep down into the earth.
All the spectators were shot sleepless at this scene as well.
"What? No!!!"
Everyone from the Sword Palace including their leader watched the entire thing unfold in front of them with disbelief in their eyes and their mouths agape.
"That's impossible! How could he block a blow from the God of Sword!" the leader roared under his breath.
His voice was filled with resentment, unwilling to accept what had just happened. But it happened whether he believed it or not.
"No wonder the ancestor of the Star Island said in his last words, that even the great masters of the Immortal World were willing to die to get this Mysterious Magnetic Mountain.
It is indeed very powerful, way beyond anyone's imagination!" Austin exclaimed.
He was shocked too.
"It seems that your sect isn't strong enough to kill me. My fate to die is not here. The one who is destined to kill me is not among you."
Austin's voice was icy and his face wore a cold smile.
"Blood sacrifice! We'll try again!" the leader shouted hysterically.
He couldn't just let it go like that.
All of a sudden, a fresh new wave of energy essence was drawn from all the members of the Sword Palace and then flew to the huge, horrible figure in the center of the array. It all happened so fast.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The gigantic figure raised the huge sword one more time and slashed at Austin, as if furious for having been woken from its long sleep.
Over and over, the giant sword released terrifying power with an overwhelming momentum. It cut down all living beings in its way as it rushed towards Austin.
Meanwhile, the Mysterious Magnetic Mountain was ablaze with bright silver light like a dazzling silver sun. It withstood every attack from the sword, solidly moving forward without retreat.
The starry sky within a million miles was completely destroyed, leaving only a dark and empty void.
Being skilled at using his spatial power, Austin was completely unaffected, standing in this void, safe and without so much as a scratch.
Protected by the power of the array, all the people from the Sword Palace were also unharmed.
As for the creatures who were watching the battle, they had long escaped somewhere far away.
"Is that all you've gotten? Now it's my turn to attack. Watch this!"
Austin's calm voice rang in the array.
Before he finished his words, he had released his spiritual sense to explore the array. A moment later, he found that the array was filled with infinite sharp sword radiance, like everywhere.
It was the sharp sword radiance that hid the people from the Sword Palace, making it impossible for Austin to sense them.
He paused. There was no way for him to fight back. He knitted his eyebrows. This wasn't good.
But suddenly, an idea struck him like a silver dagger. He concentrated and the Eye of the Ghostdom Ancestor showed up between his eyes, ready for Austin to direct it.
This Eye of the Ghostdom Ancestor had the ability to see through all disguises.
