"The divine god's magic treasures shielded me from the attacks.
I also burnt some of my original blood essence,"
Austin replied.
Just a few minutes ago, he took out a considerable amount of magic treasures at the divine level and used them to repel the attacks of the two divine gods.
The method Austin used during the fight was unusual.
His enemies did not have any idea that he had with him a few hundred magic treasures created by the divine gods.
It was not common for ordinary cultivators to possess one magic treasure at the divine level.
But Austin was an exception.
He gained several thousand divine god's magic treasures while he was in the internal world of the Millstone of Reincarnation in the Divine Being's World.
Now, Austin had to use those magic treasures to save himself. It broke his heart to watch them being destroyed, but he did not regret his decision.
Meanwhile.
"I can't believe it! That brat has so many magic treasures at the divine level!
He has more magic treasures than I have!
That's unbelievable!"
A divine god shared his frustration with another divine god through his spiritual sense.
"I was surprised as well.
Also, we're in the World of Darkness. We're all practically blind in this place, and we cannot pick up his whereabouts. Not even with our spiritual sense.
This makes it more difficult for us to kill him,"
the other divine god replied.
These two divine gods accepted a bribe from Teague. They were tasked to strike down Austin while he was in the World of Darkness.
The two of them could kill Austin, and no one would witness their crime. It was because no one could see anything inside the World of Darkness, even with their spiritual sense.
Hence, before they entered the World of Darkness, the two divine gods had already tracked down Austin. It was why they were able to attack him in the dark.
At first, they were confident they could murder Austin with a single blow, and no one would suspect them for doing it.
They did not expect to fail in this mission.
"Austin, you have to keep moving.
They will not give up so easily!"
Peterson reminded.
With this, Austin used his bodily movement skill, and moved around in the airship. After a while, he stopped in another corner.
The two divine gods could not sense Austin's exact location, but this did not stop them from launching an attack.
They bombarded the ship with forceful attacks, but they failed to hit their target. Instead, many innocent cultivators died from the attack that day.
Angry screams echoed inside the airship as dead bodies of numerous cultivators covered the floor.
The commotion drew the attention of a dozen divine gods. They asked the people to stay alert and to stand close to one another.
The two divine gods halted. They were suddenly terrified of being captured.
"How are we going to explain this to Teague once we go back?
I accepted the deal because I thought it was a piece of cake to kill a young man at the Heaven Immortal Realm. I didn't know it was going to be this complicated.
Teague paid us so much,"
one of the divine gods said in a worried voice.
"Don't worry. We can still finish the job.
I don't believe that the two of us can't kill a guy at the Heaven Immortal Realm,"
the other divine god replied.
"You're right. We must do everything to finish that brat,"
the first divine god responded with a nod.
Hidden in one corner of the airship, Austin sat quietly with his legs crossed in front of him.
He adjusted his breathing while his body started to heal and recover.
He had lost a part of his original blood essence when he was attacked.
The original blood essence was an essential part of a cultivator.
"You two wait and see!
I will get even with you,"
Austin said through gritted teeth.
It did not matter that his enemies were divine gods. He would retaliate and get even with them.
"Austin, you need to stay alert.
I don't think they will give up easily,"
Hare reminded.
"He's right!
You have to be on your guard all the time.
If only I could protect you. But I can't since I had just awaken. For now, you're on your own,"
Peterson said.
"Master, don't worry.
I can take care of myself. You focus on your recovery and regain your strength.
Once you're back on your feet, Teague will be in big trouble,"
Austin assured Peterson.
By this time, the commotion inside the airship had died down.
"Everyone, calm down and control yourself. We will reach the prehistoric relic in one day,"
a divine god announced in a loud voice to pacify the people inside the airship.
"Everything is going well. We have not encountered anymore problem,"
Peterson said.
"Tell me, is the World of Darkness a dangerous place?"
Austin asked curiously.
"Yes, it is.
The World of Darkness is filled with all kinds of unknown dangers.
I guess the airship of Celestial Cyan Kingdom has amazing defensive capabilities. It has made you invisible from your enemies and protected you in the process.
Even the divine gods do not dare to travel through the World of Darkness by themselves,"
