In the Ethereal World of the Sword Cosmos,
there was a secret space in the eye of the cosmos.
This space was created by Austin to cultivate in seclusion.
For more than a hundred years, Austin had sat cross-legged in this secret space, cultivating to become stronger.
He had two main agendas for this long cultivation. The first was to absorb and refine more of the great cosmos force, and his second and more important aim was to break through to a higher realm.
After he had cultivated for over a hundred years, the amount of the great cosmos force in his body had almost doubled!
His fighting power was naturally much stronger than it had been in the past.
However, Austin had not been able to break through to a higher realm.
He still remained a semi-governing god.
"Maybe I am just too powerful.
My vast energy is making it more difficult to break through the current realm like other divine gods.
This must be the law of heaven.
I grow stronger too fast, and the higher realm has gone far beyond my reach."
Austin shook his head with a bitter smile.
"There's no point in cultivating in seclusion like this any longer. I don't think it will have any effect for the time being."
Austin stood up and walked out of the eye of the cosmos.
For the past hundred or so years, he had cultivated in the secret space without caring about the outside world.
"I wonder what the Sword Cosmos is like now,"
he murmured to himself.
Stepping out of the Ethereal World, Austin decided to take a stroll around the Sword Cosmos.
"I wonder if the Hand of Heaven is still in the chaotic void."
Austin's gaze pierced through the void, staring at the chaotic void outside.
Usually, the creatures of the Sword Cosmos did not move in the chaotic void.
They travelled to different worlds through the void, but never stayed there for longer than necessary.
And that was because no one could predict when the Hand of Heaven would appear.
Even governing gods had no choice but to run for their lives when faced with the Hand of Heaven.
'I wonder if I can defeat the Hand of Heaven with my current strength,'
Austin wondered.
It was a very dangerous thought.
The origin of the Hand of Heaven was unknown; it was a mysterious entity of the chaotic void.
No one knew its true nature.
After some consideration, Austin refrained himself from walking into the chaotic void to provoke the Hand of Heaven.
Instead, he walked around the Sword Cosmos.
Austin didn't bother to hide his aura. He released his spiritual sense to perceive the entire Sword Cosmos.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Since Austin was much stronger than he was over a hundred years ago, the energy he released was more terrifying than ever. Wherever he went, the space shook loudly.
Of course, Austin knew what was happening.
He was doing it on purpose.
Although he had stayed away from matters of the Sword Cosmos, he had given the management right to the senior members of the Curry Sword Sect.
He knew that the only reason the Curry Sword Sect could rule the Sword Cosmos peacefully was because of his ruthless reputation.
And now, it was time for everyone to know that he was back. Austin deliberately released more energy in order to make aware of his presence to the masters and the governing gods of the Sword Cosmos.
If any of them were currently planning to betray his trust, then they had to know how powerful he was now.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Austin travelled to different worlds of the Sword Cosmos. The horrifying great cosmos force shrouded around his body and the power he exuded was astonishing. He had the aura of a legendary beast from ancient times.
Soon, the masters and governing gods began to feel the magnificent energy pulses radiating through the Sword Cosmos.
"Who is this?!
What kind of powerful being could create such loud trembles throughout the universe?"
Streams of spiritual senses shot towards the source of the energy, and many gazes pierced through the void in his direction.
"It's Austin!"
